Chapter 2: What Draco Wants
Draco woke up to the sound of a laughing baby. That in itself had Draco reaching for the wand underneath his pillow to defend his baby, until he heard Harry's voice. He then settled himself back against his bed and twisted around to watch Leo and Harry on the rocking chair through half opened eyes. Draco enjoyed the sight of the two of them together and then grinned when Leo spit up the milk Harry fed him on his pristine Auror robes.
"You go ahead and laugh it up blondie," Harry said sneering at him, "We'll see who has the last laugh, when I deny you the breakfast I was going cook for you."
"You wouldn't!" Draco said actually feeling alarmed, "You know that I now love your damned English muffins!"
"Draco, language!"
"Shut up, Potter."
"How dare you blame this little lion for taking a liking to what were your pregnancy cravings."
"Who else am I going to blame?" Draco asked the raven haired men, "For the first time in my life I have hips to rival Hermione's! It's all Leo's fault!"
"Yea, blame the only person in the room that cannot defend himself," Harry replied laughing at Draco's reasoning, "Besides you look really good. The extra weight makes you look gorgeous!"
"Stop it Ry," Draco said blushing, "Am going to get ready, I'll meet you in the kitchen in 30 minutes."
Draco waited until Harry left the his bedroom with Leo in arms before getting out of bed. Once he got up he spelled his bed and the crib to make themselves and went about picking up Leo's dirty clothes. He had given up a long time on Harry picking up the dirty clothes he threw on the floor. Then he headed to the bathroom and went through his morning routine.
Before he did anything else he casted Hermiones spell that worked the same way a muggle camera did. After casting several 'Excipio Record', he pulled out the healing balm, pain relieving potion, and bruise erasing lotion. He sighed in relief as the balm, lotion, and potion did their magic. Once he finished his bathroom routine, he stepped back into the bedroom and went to his closet to pick out his clothes.
He paused as he moved to pick clothes out and turned fully naked towards the mirror against the wall. He tried to see the gorgeousness Harry saw or the beauty that Hermione claimed he was, but all he saw was a washed out 24-year-old. Even though he saw the toned body, long legs, hips to make a man drool, an ass to die for, blond straight almost waist-length hair, molten gray eyes, and a pretty face. He knew he was considered 'gorgeous' but he did not see it nor believe it. Draco sighed in frustration, cursing Blaise Zabini to death, he turned away from the mirror and towards the closet. He picked out black leather ankle boots, black slacks, a purple v-neck t-shirt, and a black sports coat. He tied up his hair in a high ponytail, left the bedroom, and made his way towards the kitchen.
Thirty minutes had passed since Harry and Leo had left his bedroom and he got to the kitchen. He made his way towards his baby and kissed his sons pale cheek. He adored his little lion, he'd kill and die for him. He found it ironic and poetic how true it was that having a child absolutely and irrevocably changed a person. Having a child made you strong, fierce, and protective. It teaches you how to love someone unconditionally, to put their needs and happiness above yours. Their pain is yours, their sorrows are yours, their triumphs and failures are the same as if you made them yourself. You want nothing more than to see your child prosper, be successful, be strong, find someone great and fall in love and have their own family. All you want is for your baby to be happy.
He knew that the only way his baby would ever be happy would be if he was not raised as a Zabini or Malfoy. His little lion would end up oppressed like Blaise was growing up or depressed and alone like he was. He wanted his baby to be carefree, to have the childhood he did not have. That all the worries his little prince would have was how to bribe his parents into buying him the latest racing broom. If he stayed with Blaise not only would he'd have a horrible life but so would his son. The son whom he made promises to as soon as he was placed in his arms. Promises of love, happiness, and safety.
"What are you so deep in thought about?" Harry asked the blond who was standing as he absentmindedly caressed Leo who was in his baby carrier.
"Leo." Draco answered as if that explained everything.
"What in particular?" Harry asked as he placed a plate of scrambled eggs, sausages, and english muffins on the table and motioned for Draco to sit and eat.
"Promises I made him when he was born."
"Those promises." Harry said not needing anything further explained as he had been present when Leo was born.
"All I want is for Leo to be happy Harry. That's why I am doing this, no matter what happens, all I know is that it'll be worth it as long as my baby grows up in a happy home."
"And he will Dragon," Harry said to Draco as he place a plate filled with breakfast food, "You've got me, Hermione, and all the Weasleys backing your every decision."
"Thanks for that," The blonde said, "You have no idea how much you and your family mean to me."
"We've caught onto how much."
"When are you leaving for work?" Draco asked looking at the clock on the wall.
"Right after I escort you to Fortescue's to meet Hermione," Harry said smiling at the now frowining blond, "I am not going to chance Blaise finding you and Leo all alone in Diagon Alley."
"You're right, we'll go after I clean Leo up." Draco said as he took a huge bite out of the English muffin sandwich.
It was no longer a strange occurrence to see Harry Potter, saviour of Wizarding Britain, in Diagon Alley. It was such an expected occurrence, that most people seemed blind to him and the rest just admired from a far. However, what everyone always found strange was the blonde man that sometimes traveled with the saviour. The strangeness was not because the saviours companion was male or blonde. No, the strangeness was because this male was Draco Malfoy.
The first time the childhood enemies had been seen together and no altercation had broken between the two, the two made the front page of the Daily Prophet and had stayed on it for several days afterwards. Mostly, because it had been discovered that the Malfoy heir was pregnant and residing with the boy-who-lived-twice. Then, it was due to Rita Skeeter's' conniving schemes the two males were on the front page for months. When the reporter suggested that Harry had cheated on Ginny with Malfoy because she was infertile. Which resulted in Malfoy's pregnancy with the Potter heir and that was why Potter was looking after him. The two had finally been off the front page when Blaise Zabini -Malfoy's husband- clearly stated that Draco had never cheated and that Harry was a family friend looking after Draco while he was in the continent on business. Harry and Draco had not been seen in public together again since then. However, seeing the saviour of the British Wizarding World with the blonde and a baby in tow was making many to freeze in their actions and openly stare at the three as they made their way through the streets of Diagon Alley.
"You'd think that none of them have seen me with Leo in the past months." Draco stated rather loudly, smirking when many turned away from them in embarrassment.
"Well, to be fair, none of them see you more than a day out of the month here." Harry quipped back, "And never have you two been out with me."
"And? That does not give anyone rights to openly ogle me and my son," The tall blonde answered tartly, "If I wanted to be stared at like a bloody caged animal. I'd be in exhibit in the zoo."
"Calm down, Dragon, Leo's going to pick up on your vibes and get all worked up. The last thing I want is to be arrested by the Aurors for punching reporters for taking pictures of Leo."
"It'd be funny though," Draco said laughing up at Harry, "The Aurors having to rush in to halt an altercation and then having to arrest their own boss."
"You do that and I'll make sure you're hounded by Ron everyday of the week."
"Merlin, no!" Draco almost felt like screaming his plea, "Don't say that even jokingly, I do not want that ginger nightmare anywhere near me. Or Leo."
"Why are you so mean to Ron?" Harry asked Draco, "Ron did not meant to make you grow breasts. It was an accident. He even apologized and gave you tickets to the Cannons playoffs games."
"Harry I had breasts for a month!" Draco hissed at the Raven haired man, "That was a month that I could not set foot outside the house. Do you have any idea how horrible is to be cooped up within the same walls when pregnant?"
"No, I do not."
"Of course you do not, but Ron will pay. I won't rest until I see all that ginger hair fall off!"
"Draco, sweetheart, please do reign in the psychotic Slytherin."
"Oh, shut up Potter," Draco sighed, "And you reign in your bloody Gryffindor. Also, make haste! Hermione is waiting and I do not want to make her late for work."
"She's the head of her department. She can be late if she wants." Harry stated, "Also, it's nice to know that you care more about Hermione's tardiness than mine!"
"Well, you're stuck with us two, you know us. She can't know how I really am until she's utterly in love with the Lion and Dragon."
"Draco, am pretty sure every single Weasley is in love with the two of you," Harry said smirking, "Now that you mention it Molly said something in a sentence, that I am pretty sure sounded a lot like jumper, Leo, Dragons, Romania, and Charlie."
"No, no, no, no, no!" Draco began fuming again, "No baby of mine is going to wear a horrid little Weasley jumper and there's no way in Merlin's inferno that Charlie is coming near Leo. Next thing you'll know Leo is going to go off to Romania to play Dragon tamer and leave me all broken hearted and alone here."
"Draco, you letting your inner queen come out," Harry said laughing out loud, "Stop being such a drama queen. Leo won't be a Dragon Tamer until he passes the Magizoologist exam and earns his Tamery license. That'll not happen until five years from his Hogwarts graduation."
"Why are you so cruel to me Harry?" Draco asked Harry with a look of utter devastation on his face that made Harry feel horrible because of his teasing. Harry's felt his heart give a tug when Draco leant down to kiss the forehead of the sleeping baby he was holding against his chest.
"Oh, Draco! I was only teasing," Harry implored, wrapping an arm around the blonde man, "I am sorry for saying anything. I'll also promise, that I will try -to the best of my ability- to stop Charlie from turning Leo into a Dragon Tamer."
"Well, that's a start." Draco said suddenly giving Harry a blinding smile then speed up the sidewalk that lead to Fortescue's.
"You little sneaky Slytherin!" Harry said as he smiled and rushed after the two blondes.
Hermione Granger was an unstoppable force, which was the reason the Minister of Magic created The Department of Creature, Magical, and Muggle Liaisons, just for Hermione and then gave her absolute power over the department. It was because of Hermione that after thousands of year, all creatures in Magical Britain held equal status to Wizards and Witches and lived alongside witches and wizards. She had the Muggle Prime Minister wrapped around her pinky. The Minister of Magic did whatever the muggle born witch said and the Wizengamot did not take a step or make a decision without her guidance, support, and approval. She was also responsible for the modernization of magical Britain. Education, entertainment, medicine, technology, and modes of transportation were all now on par with those of the muggle world. Everyone in the Ministry of Magic respected and feared the witch in equal amounts. All because the 25 year old woman could acquire anything she wanted without seeming to have to do any work. She held power and sway in Great Britain that had nothing to do with her part in the war.
Which was how she manage, in a span of an hour, to gather the Wizengamot and hold court. In a few minutes she got the initial proceedings for Draco's divorce and paternity suit started. She also convinced the Lords and Ladies of the Wizengamot to prohibit Lord Malfoy and Lady Zabini to take their seats during the divorce case and prohibited them to be the legal counsel for one Blaise Zabini. She also convinced all the Lord and Ladies to name her Draco Malfoy's legal counsel during the divorce case and the paternity suit. As soon as she turned in Draco's latest evidence of domestic abuse, the case would be started.
She watched out the window of Fortescue's, her wand on hand, on the look out for a particular blonde. The last thing she would want is an enraged Harry Potter because she allowed anything to happened to his beloved blondes. She straightened in her seat, put her wand away, and took out a few folders, once she saw Draco making his way to the restaurant with his baby on tow with Harry behind them. She smiled at the three of them and then grinned when Harry pulled out the chair for Draco. She waited until the two seated before speaking.
"Good Morning."
"Morning Mione," Harry said, "I won't be here long, just enough to get caught up on what you've done."
"Good Morning Beautiful," Draco said to her, "what have you done?"
"After I tell you Draco, you owe me a day with Leo."
"It all depends," Draco said grinning knowing she probably did something fantastic if she was asking for a day with her Godson, "on how much you amaze me."
"Well, the divorce proceedings started. The Wizengamot has prohibited Lord Malfoy and Lady Zabini to be the legal counsel for Blaise on both the divorce case and paternity suit. I have also been named your legal counsel for both cases. All I have left to do is submit the all the proof of domestic violence and the case will be started. Now can I have a day with my Godson?"
"Yes, you may. The ginger nightmare can even put a Weasley jumper on him!" Draco said excitedly as he gave Harry the baby and then leant over the table to hug Hermione.
Harry grinned at the blond and brunette as he shifted the baby to lay comfortably on his lap. Hermione had lifted a tremendous weight off all of their shoulders with her as Draco's lawyer, they were guaranteed to win both cases. Hopefully the both wins would come with minimal headaches. For the first time in months Harry's day beginning great.
"Well, I have to go to work you two," Harry said as he handed Leo back to Draco, "Unlike some people, I am held accountable for lateness."
"Don't hate on my game," Hermione said with cockiness and a grin, "Go to work in peace. I took my day off to catch up with Draco. Once we're done I'll take them back to Grimmauld Place. No need to worry."
"Thanks Mione," Harry said with a smile and then turned to Draco, " Take care and don't let anyone into Grimmauld until I get home from work."
"I know, you bloody Gryffindor," Draco said with a smile, "Go to work before you're fired."
"Fine, Good day." Harry said then he kissed Leo and ran his hand through Draco's hair, and then he left.
"You look happier." Hermione said.
"I am." Draco stated and then he and Hermione caught up with each others lives.
