Life is Sweet

By Angelwings

Chapter 1 " A Trip to France?"

The light streamed in on the Candy shop/bakery. This had been his dream come true, to break off from his Family history and their Money obsessed parents. He had been disowned upon applying for culinary academy and would not be acknowledged until he gave up the plebian craft and went to work for his father's firm. In his mother's eyes until he took a wife to care for her only grandchild only then would she ever welcome her gay son back into the fold.

They had tried numerous time to reign him in but their last attempt to keep their son under their thumb was to make him marry a girl that had became Pregnant by him. It had happened during his Graduation Party at the manor. They had picked out the perfect girl with the right breeding and family background and social standing to carrying on the next generation. They supplied the Alcohol made sure the two teens were both wasted and locked in a room together to allow nature to take its course. As planned the girl became pregnant but what didn't go as planned was their son refused to marry her or give up his career choice. He told them he would support the child and would be in the child's life but he refused to marry someone he didn't love just to save face in society.

It had been five years since the birth of his son and despite how he came into the world he wouldn't give him up for the world. His mother died in child birth because she was of a delicate constitution like all girls of high society. They were bred to be thin and beautiful not to bear children. Very few survived the birth of the baby and when they did they never had another. His parents once again demanded he give up culinary school and take care of his child by getting a proper job. He told them he was going to take care of his son but he would do it his way. They could go fuck themselves because was not going to let them rule his life or his son's life.

"Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy, no running in the show room!" He scolded as his son had come running into the shop.

"Sorry Daddy." The Little blond boy pouted.

"It dangerous and you could get hurt or hurt a costumer. Now where's Pansy?"

"Aunt Pansy was slow."

"And he took off running the moment we reached the corner of the block." A hazard looking Pansy gasped as she braced against the counter trying to catch her breath. "I swear you feed the kid nothing but sugar Draco."

"No I don't even though he wishes I would. So what happen at school that you rushed home?" Draco chuckled.

"Daddy! Hugo's Uncle Harry is taking him and two Friends to Euro Disney World for the Weekend in his Plane! Hugo asked me to go! Can I, Can I, Can I?"

"That's very generous of his Uncle Harry. What is the occasion that they are going to France?"

"It's Hugo Birthday! Please can I go?"

"First of all it's 'May I go?' not 'Can I go?' and secondly I'm not sure. I will have to talk to Hugo's parents and meet his Uncle before I dust off your passport."

"Hugo's mum said you might want to call them and gave me this." Draco smiled as his son thrust the card he had been holding tight since he had rushed into the shop.

"Ah… it's a birthday invitation with a phone number to R.S.V.P. Well I'll call them later but for now it's time for me to get back to work and you to start your homework. So you had better get started."

"Okay Daddy!" Scorpius smiled and ran to the back office.

"He is cute Draco you are really lucky." Pansy smiled softy.

"I know I am. Scorpius is my world but I don't know about letting go to France for the weekend though." Draco moved behind the counter and began to restock the bread for the evening rush.

"Yes I can see that you have been with Scor everyday since he was born and now he wants to leave the country at just five."

"You make it sound like he's leaving for good." Draco laughed.

"Well that is because you sound like he is. He is five going for a sleep over, luv; not 18 leaving for Uni. Don't let your fear letting him go break his heart. Call Hugo's Family and maybe they'll let you go with them."

"Go with them? That would be rude and I can't go anyway what about the shop? I haven't closed since I opened three years ago."

"Blaise and I can run the shop. Luna can come in before you leave and help over stock the sweets and Vincent and Greg can handle the breads, cakes and Deliveries no problem. We've done it before. You deserve a vacation however small it is." Pansy was right. She and Blaise had been his best friend since High school. They were the only connection he had to his past life and they were his biggest support in his life other than his godfather.

"You're right I do need a vacation but France?"

"I know it's the Malfoy home away from home but really what are the chances you will see Lord and Lady Malfoy at Euro Disney?"

"True. Father would be trying to kill the mouse with his glare and Mother would be horrified with unruly children." The two friends laughed at the thought Malfoys at the theme park. "Okay I'll call and meet them but I will not invite myself on their holiday."

"That's fine but you still should take the time off you deserve it."

"We'll see now you better get going or you Fiancé will think we ran off and eloped."

"Just say the word and I'll drop Blaise like a hot stone." Pansy winked as she headed for the door.

"Oh the Nightmares!" Draco pretend to be horrified then laughed when she flipped him off before leaving.

The day went by fast and soon it was time to close up shop. He said good bye to his two regular employees Greg and Vince for the day then locked to doors. Scorpius had his homework done and in his back ready to go. He was a good boy so smart he loved his dad. Draco knew he would have to put in the effort to get to know Hugo's family so he would not let his son down. Lucky for them Scorpius and he had traveled to Scotland and Ireland for Sweet fairs and conventions to improve their shop so his passport was up to date.

"Ready to go Scor?"

"Yes Daddy." The little boy smiled up at his father.

"Then let's go." Taking his son by the hand the left the shop and headed up stairs to the flat above the shop. He may have left his Family and their money behind be he wasn't stupid enough not to have a hidden nest egg. The inheritance he received from his Grandmother Malfoy had been in a trust and once he turn 18 he rolled it over into some investments. His father couldn't touch it and he built up a nice fortune, while he was studying to be a Pastry Chef, which he used to purchased the building and open his sweet shop which he lovingly named "Life is Sweet."

"What would you like for dinner?"

"Cauliflower and Cheese Please!"

"You got it but you still need to eat your chicken."

"Aww… Dad." Scorpius whined as he took of his back pack.

"As wonderful as it is for you to eat you vegetables you need protein. Now why don't you watch a bit of telly while I get dinner on the table?"

"Okay Dad."

"Ring, ring"

"Hello?"

"Draco what is this Monstrosity? I swear this had better be a joke."

"Hello Uncle Sev what can I do for you?" He knew this call was coming so he just let his uncle rant while he made dinner.

"You can come here and retrieve this mutt from my home."

"No I will not. He was a gift from Scorpius and you need a companion. Snuffles is the perfect match for you. He is Newfoundland a gentle giant…"

"You mean it gets bigger?!"

"Of course it does it just a 3 month old puppy right now. As I was saying he will get along with anyone who comes over or if you ever take a lover."

"I do not need a lover."

"Yes you do but that is beside the point. He is mild temper dog he has a black coat and he'll blend in with your wardrobe and decor."

"What about the hair? It will be shedding everywhere."

"Well I can't argue with that. But you are such a neat freak I doubt it will be a problem. He will need brushing and I know Scorpius would love to help you when he visits. Training will be a breeze because he will actually listen to you unlike your students."

"Oh there you go all my fears are alleviated" Draco smiled as he could hear the sneer in his godfather's voice. "Now come get the mutt."

"Severus stop being childish give him a try if you still don't like him then Pansy said she'd take him. She and Blaise would love to spoil him."

"Very well then if you insist, but I do this under protest."

"You would say that. Trust me you will love him."

"Be thankful you are my godson and that I tolerate your offspring." Draco knew that was the closest the Chemistry teacher would ever admit that he loved him and Scorpius. "How is the Scorpion I haven't heard from him lately."

"He is doing well in school and has made friends."

"Why to I hear a 'but' at the end of that?"

"Because one of his friends is having a birthday at Euro Disney and he was invited to go along with them."

"I see you are reluctant to let your offspring go. Draco he needs to have friends and see the world without his daddy stalking him in the shadows."

"I don't stalk my son."

"Of course not it was some other blond haired father camped outside his son's class just to see if he was missed." Draco blushed because Severus nailed it on the head. "Draco, have you talked to the child's parents?"

"Not yet probably tomorrow I have no orders other than the daily routine I was going to call then. Pansy said I should ask to go with them but I said I won't because it would be rude to intrude."

"I agree but you should let him go after you meet the family. If you are still worried I will be visiting France for some supplies soon. I can postpone until the date of the trip and I will be near by in case of an emergency."

"I'll see what happens after I meet the parents. I'll let you know but it would put my mind at ease if you were there."

"Say no more. Now if you will excuse me I have to feed the mutt you bestowed on me before he eats my furniture."

"I'll talk to you later than Uncle Sev as I have my own child to feed. Good night."

"This mutt is not my child!" Draco just laughed as he hung up the phone to finish dinner.

A/N: Hello all My readers it is a New Year and this is a New fic that has popped into my head. I don't know where it is head so I hope you'll review along the way to tell me how's it going. In regards to My other Fics both Naruto and Harry Potter they have been put on hold Because my computer crashed so badly four days before Christmas that I had to wipe all the drives and restore the default programming. Lucky for me I had back up flash drive with my work sadly though I hadn't updated it because I was in the middle of Writing new chapters For Blue Christmas My Chibi Dobe and A Christmas Wish. I was very upset at the lost that I just need to start something new to take my mind off the loss. Hopefully once I'm distracted from the crash I can refocus back on my other fics and make them better than before. Thank you again for Reading and Keep Reviewing!
