As Harry was driving to work the next day he was smiling as he thought of Scott and hoped that he would accept their help.
He pulled into the driveway and stepped out the car only to be great by a lot of shouting and the sound of something being broken.
He sighed and walked up and stepped inside looking around for the source of the problem. He saw two of the homes worse resident scrapping with each other.
""Ok boys break it up now." He said prizing them apart.
They both tried to get at each other still and shouted loudly at Harry to let them go.
Harry led them upstairs by their t-shirts and into his office. "Now listen here I will not tolerate this kind of behaviour. You will never get adopted at this rate, do you want to be here forever?" he asked in stern tone.
They both just sat in the chairs glaring at him.
Harry rolled his eyes and went and sat in his chair at his desk and rubbed his eyes. "Look guys I know its hard on you and I know that this is what you had to do to survive once but your not in that situation anymore ok you don't have to worry about where the next meal will come from or if someone will take something from you ok so please just calm down." He said looking at them in earnest.
They both looked at him with a slight frown now, not a glare. Both still found it hard to believe that they were actually in a place where they would be taken care of.
Rob nodded slowly muttered a sorry to Josh who did the same back fiddling with his hoddy cuff.
"Ok that's better now I need to talk with Scott ok so you guys go of and do something constructive. The flowers in the garden could do with tending to so why don't you do that." He said letting them out the office.
They walked of heads hung a little and Harry smiled rolling his eyes as they did and went to find Scott.
Scott was in his bedroom reading at this point and looked up when he heard a knock on his door and smiled as Harry entered.
"Hey there Scott how are you feeling?" he asked.
"Better thank you." He said putting his book down and sitting up on his bed.
"I'm glad, I wanted to ask you something, It's important." He said sitting next to him.
Scott nodded and waited or Harry to ask him.
" Well me and Draco have been talking and we wanted to know if you would like to come and live with us?" he asked.
Scott frowned a little "What until I find a permanent place?" he asked.
Harry gave a small laugh well no not quit that. We wanted to formally adopt you. We want you to live with use permanently." He said.
Scott's eyes widened at this "Really you actually want to take me home?" he asked shocked.
Harry nodded "Yes, we feel like you are part of the family." He said patting his shoulder.
Scott hugged Harry and both grinned, "I'd love to Harry." He said.
Harry chuckled "you'll have to get used to calling me and Draco dad and papa." He said with a grin remembering how Draco referred to his father as papa.
Scott nodded and followed Harry to his office to start on the paper work witch was lot's of boring forms and reading out of rules and the lark.
"This will take at least two weeks to go through ok though you will be able to come visit before you permanently move in.," he said.
Scott was so happy and couldn't wait for the papers to go through.
Later that day Harry was working on his mountain of paper work he had to do to report on the kids progress when he heard a cry.
He immediately got to his feet and went downstairs to see where it was coming from. Suddenly Josh came running in and over to him "Harry please help it Rob he's hurt his leg real bad!" he said hastily scared and dragged Harry outside to the garden where you could see Rob with his leg stuck under the wheelbarrow and clearly broken.
Harry dashed over and assessed the break. "Josh go to my office and call the ambulance then tell Annette that I'm going to the hospital with Robert and that I need her to cover for me" he said taking Rob's hand who was wincing with the pain.
"It's ok Robert the ambulance is coming." He reassured him "How did this happen?" he asked.
"I was…moving some of the compost to put it…ah…on the roses and it tipped over." He said wincing.
Harry nodded and then the paramedics arrived and they gave Robert some pain relief, which worked fast.
Harry sat in the waiting room of the hospital as Robert had his leg put back together in theatre. Turned out it was broken in two places.
When he was wheeled out on the bed Harry got up and the doctor came over "He will be ok but he can't do much for a while. Make sure he rests ok and get the pharmacist to give you these pain killers." He said handing Harry a prescription.
Harry nodded and went over to Robert's bed that was curtained of.
As he woke up Harry smiled down at him "Hey there." He said.
Robert groaned and tried to sit up but Harry stopped him.
"Hey lay back now ok. The doctor says you have to rest ok." He said.
Robert sighed "When can we go back?" he asked.
"In an hour they just want to make sure the anaesthetic is totally worn of." He said.
Harry looked to the cast "so going to get everyone to sign it?" he asked.
Robert grinned "Yer but first is you and Josh. He was great even though we fight he got help." He said.
Harry laughed "Robert do you not know why he did that? It's because you're his friend and he cares about you. Id even say he fancies you." He said with a grin.
Robert's eyes got wide "Really, you think?" he asked.
Harry nodded "Yes, Ive seen how he looks at you when he thinks no one is looking. He fights with you to get your attention because he thinks you wont pay him any if he didn't." he said.
Robert looked down at his hands "I feel really bad now. I should have realised." He said softly.
Harry patted his shoulder "it's ok mate, they say love is blind. I mean it took me and Draco two years of fighting to realise we love each other." He said.
Robert smiled at this. "When we get back I'll talk to him then." He said.
Harry nodded and after having a doctor check him over he was allowed to leave.
