Part Three.

Saturday June 28, 2025.

Draco Malfoy was still smiling as the shouting upstairs fell silent with a final shriek from Lily Potter. He heard her footsteps thud down the stairs and that little sentimental part of him that he would deny under pain and death, warmed. As the kids got older they all went off to Hogwarts, leaving it just Harry and himself in the large house most of the year, it had gotten lonely. It was good to have the silence filled again. Though he would probably come to regret that thought by the end of the week.

When Teddy first finished Hogwarts, he had been accepted into the Auror program and moved home to do that. Albus and Scorpius had started Hogwarts a few years later; when Lily followed them, Teddy decided it was time to move out. He told Harry and Draco it was to give them some privacy, now that everyone was out of the house, and moved in with his grandmother, Andromeda Tonks.

Lost and hurt after the war, Andromeda had been unable to look after Teddy. She foisted him on the eighteen year old hero. Harry had taken Teddy and never looked back. Harry had never regretted becoming a father at eighteen to his godson.

Teddy had stayed with Andromeda for a few years, before finally moving into a flat of his own.

The house had been so quiet after Teddy moved out; by the time Harry and Draco had grown accustomed to it, James had been graduating and moving back home. Though James had been so busy with Quidditch and his friends that he was rarely home. During the summers he would spent a lot of his remaining time with Hugo at Ron and Hermione Weasley's house. It had not gotten much better when Scorpius and Albus graduated.

Scorpius; being a novice Healer at Saint Mungo's, usually got a lot of graveyard and double shifts. When he was at home, he was exhausted and usually asleep, or he had made plans with Albus. While Draco knew his heir appreciated the practice, Scorpius hated being called in when he had plans with Albus. The two rarely got to spend any time together, because it seemed any time Scorpius actually got the time off, there was a crisis that Albus had to take care of.

They were part of the reason he had let Harry talk him into going to the Weasley Reunion. It was a well known event in Wizarding London. A fact that made the snobbish pureblood in Draco cringe and sneer. It had been easy enough to get everyone's' schedules cleared for the following week. If Scorpius and Albus disappeared randomly throughout the event, Draco could find several ways to keep the elder Molly Weasley from noticing.

A smirk fluttered across his face as he thought about it. Molly Weasley had gotten used to him, to his son and their place in Harry's life, but that did not mean she liked him, nor did she entirely forgive him for Hogwart's and the War.

Draco cringed over his coffee as his thoughts drifted to Bill Weasley. Coming to terms with what had happened to the eldest Weasley son had been one of the hardest things Draco had ever done. It was right up there with giving Harry the chance he wanted, and finally admitting to being in love with the raven haired Hero of the Wizarding World.

No matter how hard those things had been, Draco could not find it in himself to regret any of them.

They had set his life in motion and Draco did not look back. Just like he had not when he moved into this house with Harry and their children when Albus and Scorpius had been five years old. Fifteen years later, and so much had changed, but even more had stayed the same.

"DADDY! DRACO!" Lily screeched as she skidded into the kitchen. Draco looked up from his coffee and smiled at her. Lily Potter looked more like her namesake then she did her late mother. That wasn't just his need to rationalizing his unlimited love for the red headed eighteen year old talking either. He had seen old pictures of the late Lily Potter, her red hair had been long and sleek, her face was thin, and more slender then Ginny Weasley's had been. Lily's emerald green eyes sparkled with a mischievous innocence that he never wanted to see gone. It if was not for the heavy freckles – which Lily hated – she could have passed for a younger replica of her paternal grandmother.

Her hair was currently pulled into two wet, curly pig tails and it was one of the few times Draco could clearly see her mother in her. James Sirius Potter looked more like Ginny on a normal day, then Lily did.

"Lily love, what did your brother do this time?"

"He! He! ARG!" Lily threw herself into the seat across from Draco, fuming. "Why is murder illegal?"

"Because your father got tired of cleaning up the bodies."

It was a question Lily had been asking him for years now, and every time Draco's answer changed. He would tease her about not killing her brothers, and when she was gone, he would try to make himself not remember what murder was, what torture and death were.

Sometimes, he could distract himself from it. Other times, it was all he could think about, all he could see and hear.

That was usually when Harry would walk up to him, wrap his arms around him and kiss his neck. He would say something ridiculously sappy, just to get Draco to stop brooding. Which he really needed to do, or else this conversation with Lily was going to get incredibly one-sided. Where was that idiot anyway? He needed a Harry distraction. Preferably a naked distraction once everyone cleared out for the day.

"Right, I always forget that," Lily sighed, shaking her head. She waved her wand, smirking slightly as two glasses of chocolate milk appeared on the table. She loved being able to use magic outside of school.

Draco put down his coffee mug in exchange for the milk. He sipped it as if the cold drink could scold him, a smile on his face. He only ever drank the Muggle concoction with Lily. Scorpius could not stand milk, and James avoided all milk by claiming he was lactose intolerant. Though he would put it in his cereal, and loved cheese, so Draco was not sure who James thought he was fooling.

If you so much as showed Albus Severus chocolate milk he would turn white and rush to the nearest bathroom. Harry and Draco had tired to get to the bottom of that one, but the closest they came to an answer was George Weasley, who was mum about the whole thing.

Lily raised the usually translucent cup to her lips and drank eagerly. She couldn't understand her brothers dislike of chocolate milk. It was chocolate after all.

"I need you and Daddy to ground Al," Lily said as she stared at him through her lashes. "I understand he is much to old to ground normally, but I am sure, since you're such a loving and creative father, that you'd be able to come up with something suitable."

"Uh huh," Draco smirked at Harry's youngest, at their youngest. Lily was the only one who regularly interchangeably called them both 'Dad' but the sentiment was there with the boys as well. "What did Albus Severus do this time?"

There was a reason Lily Potter had followed Albus Severus and Scorpius into Slytherin house. She was as sneaky as Albus, but not as careless as James and Teddy had been. That was always fun to rub that fact in Harry's face.

"He painted her room black and drew graphic stick figures all over her walls in chalk." Draco really needed to put a bell on Hugo Weasley. The red headed Gryffindor reached over Lily's shoulder to steal her cup. He swallowed the last three mouthfuls much to Lily's squawk of disgust.

"I think we should have invested in a belt as a graduation present," Draco decided as he watched the lanky youth.

"Hardly useful, I would have forgotten to wear it." Hugo spelled Lily's cup away and slouched into a seat, uncaring that his trousers were half down his arse, leaving his patterned underwear for the world to see.

James stumbled into the kitchen, whipping sleep from his eyes. He really hated mornings, and for some reason, he just had not been able to fall back asleep. James stuffed his arms into the front pocket of his dark red hoodie and stumbled into the nearest free chair. He let his head fell back, eyes fluttering shut. James head fell foreword, and he blinked his deep blue eyes when he noticed Hugo.

"Wha? Huh? Why are you here this early?" His words were slurred with sleep as he summoned a steaming cup of coffee to his hands.

"Taking pictures of you sleeping that I can use later for blackmail." Hugo's face remained blank as James stared at him.

"Umm, okay." James blinked and shook his head. He burrowed his chin in the front of his hoodie, closing his eyes. If he stayed like that long enough, he hopped to fall back to sleep.

"Hi, Daddy," Lily said when Harry apparated into the kitchen. His coat was on, shoes unlaced and dressing shirt gaping open. Quickly he buttoned up his unbuttoned shirt.

"It's Saturday," Draco said, eyes locked on Harry's rapidly disappearing chest. "Where do you think you're going?"

Harry groaned, kissed Lily on the cheek with a happy "welcome home, sweetie" and a stole a piece of toast from in front of James.

"I need to bail Teddy out of jail. He was in the middle of a bar fight last night – again."

"Teddy's back already?" Suddenly awake, James beamed up his dad. "Can I go with you? Ow, Hugo!" James glared at the chunk of toast on the table, rubbing his jaw as he pouted at his cousin.

Hugo just watched James carefully, a habit no one knew where he inherited from. His father could rarely sit still and his mother was always to busy gathering information to have many people skills that didn't involve her harassing people into telling her what she needed to know.

James looked away and bit into his last piece of toast.

Lily, who had thrown herself into her father's arms, pleaded with him to take her to see Teddy. He didn't want to come home to find Albus Severus dead, after all, did he?

Harry frowned at her, glancing over at Draco. The blond's face didn't move a muscle, and Harry sighed. Great, now he had two sons to scold back into line.

"Come on, you can tell Teddy what Albus did this time to warrant his premature death."

Lily squealed and ran back upstairs to get her coat. Draco stood and walked Harry to the door. He reached forward and twisted the top button of his shirt. He pulled the taller man down and kissed him soundly and thoroughly. After, he stepped back and stuffed a piece of paper in Harry's hand

"Do you mind picking that up for me?" Draco asked and Harry nodded, turning bright red when he read the paper.

Lily whined when she came back downstairs to find her fathers making out.
