Chapter Four

For the first time in years Harry slept through the night without any nightmares. When he awoke in the morning he found himself wrapped lovingly in Severus' embrace. Harry couldn't help but smile. He liked waking up in those strong arms. Gently removing himself from Severus' embrace he went to check on Hanna.

"Morning sweetie. Did you sleep well last night?" Harry greeted his daughter as he entered her room.

"Yes Daddy. Did you and papa sleep well?"

"Yes we did. I think having papa near me kept my bad dreams away." Harry smiled as he realized the calming effect Sev had on him. "So what do you want for breakfast?"

"Sausage, Potatoes and Toast."

"Alright. I'll go get breakfast made while you go wake your papa. Just be careful, he may tickle you worse then I do."

"I'll have you know that I do not tickle people. I may blow on a few stomachs but I do not tickle." Severus said from the door way.

"Papa." Hanna jumped off her bed to hug him.

"Morning you little bugger." He lifted her into his arms then pulled the edge of her shirt up and blew on her stomach. She began to squeal.

"I'm going to make breakfast. Do you prefer coffee or tea in the morning?"

"Coffee." Sev replied then returned to Hanna's stomach.

Harry laughed at the two of them then went into the kitchen. He decided to make the coffee the muggle way and cooked everything else using magic. The coffee was done first so he poured two mugs of it and placed cream and sugar on the table. By the time breakfast was ready and the table set, Severus and Hanna had come into the kitchen. Severus smiled at Harry as he handed him his coffee and a plate of breakfast.

Hanna smiled at her fathers as they all ate breakfast together. They were on there way to being the perfect family she had dreamed about the night before. Hanna was a lot more powerful then any of them knew. She had a habit of having dreams about events that would happen in her life. Most of them had been small things but one had been of her meeting her family. She could still remember the dream she'd had of a large warm room filled mostly with red heads when she was two and a half. At the time she didn't realize who the people in her dream were but after looking through a photo album of Harry's she realized it was her aunts and uncles and her grandparents. She had seen her papa in the dream as well but since Harry had no pictures of Severus she didn't know who he was at the time.

Harry stared at his daughter who was smiling at him and Severus. He tried to figure out what was going through her little mind. He could tell she had realized something that made her happy but he couldn't tell what it was. Brushing it off as just happiness that her papa was there he returned to his food. Severus had noticed the look on Hanna's face as well but since he was skilled at legilimency he was able to find the thought that made her so happy.

"What was your dream about last night?" Severus finally asked causing Hanna to gasp in shock and Harry to look bewildered.

"I had a dream that we were all sitting around a table eating breakfast as a family. We weren't here but somewhere else. I don't know where but it wasn't here. Daddy was rubbing his belly while he ate and it was swollen. There was also two blonde men and one of them had a swollen belly as well. The two blondes had rings on their fingers and we were all very happy." Hanna answered.

"What was the other dream you had about? The one when you were younger."

"I had a dream about meeting my family. We were all eating dinner in a large warm kitchen. The room was filled mostly with red heads with a few people who weren't. You and Daddy were sitting with me and we were happy. I now know it was the dinner we had last night."

"Harry did you know our daughter possessed the sight?" Severus asked smiling at the shocked look on Harry's face. "I'll take that as a no then. Hanna can you tell me what the room looked like in your dream from last night?"

"It looked kinda like our kitchen here but it wasn't as bright. Also most of the room was green like my bedding and there were leaves falling outside the window. They were different colors and very pretty." Hanna answered with a thoughtful look on her face.

"Could you see yourself in the dream or not?"

She shook her head. "No papa."

Severus laughed softly to himself.

"What's so funny Sev?" Harry asked, slightly concerned by Hanna's dream.

"Hanna just described my room on the third floor at the castle in the staff wing. I haven't used it in years but it's still technically my room." Harry had to laugh at that as well. "The funniest part is I was going to talk to Minerva today about moving back in there so that Hanna and you will have more space when you come to visit." Severus looked at his watch. "I've got to get back to the castle. You'll be bringing Hanna by at lunch tomorrow right?"

"Yeah. Hanna and I will be out most of the day but you're welcome to join us for dinner tonight."

"Alright. I'll see you later you little bugger." He kissed Hanna on the forehead then turned to Harry. "I'll try to stop by this evening if I can get away." He kissed Harry then flooed into Poppy's office.

"Severus? What are you doing here?" Poppy exclaimed in shock as Severus suddenly appeared in her office.

"I stayed the night with Hanna and Harry last night. I was quite drained from having dinner with the Weasleys."

"Well that would explain why you are wearing a dressing grown." Snape looked down realizing that he had left Harry's without getting dressed.

"Do you mind if I use your fireplace to floo to my quarters? I don't think it would be proper for me to be seen like this."

"Go right ahead but you should contact Minerva. She's quite worried and was looking for you this morning."

"Thanks Poppy. I'll call her when I reach my rooms." Snape grabbed a pinch of floo power and returned to his rooms. The moment he stepped out of the flames there was a knock at the door. Cursing silently he went to see who it was. "Good morning Minerva." He greeted the Headmistress.

"Morning Severus. Where have you been and why aren't you dressed?"

"Sorry. I joined Harry, Hermione and Hanna at the Weasley's for dinner last night and by the time Harry, Hanna and I left it was too late for me to return to the castle so I stayed at Harry's for the night. I only just returned a few minutes ago."

"Well Mr. Malfoy showed up this morning looking for you and he seemed quite upset."

"Where's Draco right now?" Snape asked in concern.

"I'm right here sir." Draco answered coming into view. Snape could tell that his godson had been crying recently.

"Minerva. Could you send my class to the library? I think Draco and I need to talk."

"Yes Severus. I'll tell them." Minerva moved aside so Draco could enter the room then went down the hall to the potions classroom.

"Draco what happened?" Severus asked in concern as they sat down on the couch.

"St. Mungo's contacted me this morning. Mother died last night." Draco answered before beginning to cry again. Severus just held him until he calmed down.

"I'm sorry Draco. Is there anything I can do for you right now?"

"Could I stay here with you for a few days sir?"

"Draco of course you can. We'll have to talk to Minerva about getting a room set up for you in my other suite. I don't think there's enough room down here for the four of us and my lab."

"Four of us sir? Who are the other two?"

"Harry Potter and my daughter Hanna. They're going to be staying with me here at the castle a few nights each week. I know they won't mind you joining us. Hanna probably would love to have someone to make potions with. And stop calling me sir, Draco. You're not a student anymore."

"You have a daughter? Why didn't you tell me about her sooner?"

"I didn't know until yesterday when Harry and her came to the castle. You can meet her tonight if you'd like. I'm supposed to go to Harry's for dinner and you are free to join us."

"But Potter hates me. He'd never allow me into his house."

"Harry doesn't hate you Draco. You two were never friends in school but he never hated you. I can call him right now and ask him if it'll make you feel better about joining us." Snape got off the couch and called Harry.

"Sev? Why aren't you in class teaching?" Harry asked in concern.

"When I got here Draco needed to see me so I sent my class to the library. I was just wondering if he could join us for dinner tonight? His mother died last night and I don't want to leave him alone."

"Tell Draco I'm sorry about his mother and that he's more then welcome to join us this evening. He's also welcome to come by anytime if he needs to talk. I know what it's like to lose a parent so I understand how he feels right now. Hanna and I are just about to leave for Diagon Alley for the day, he can join us if he doesn't want to be alone while you have to teach."

Severus pulled his head out of the flames to relay what Harry had said to Draco who decided to take Harry up on his offer.

"He'll meet you at the Leaky Caldron in about ten minutes Harry." Severus said before ending the call. "Are you sure you'll be ok Draco?"

"Go teach your classes. I'll see you when I get back." Draco assured his godfather.

Once Severus left Draco flooed to the Leaky Caldron. When he arrived he didn't see Harry so he went to sit at the bar. He didn't have to wait long before he saw Harry step through the door with a young girl in his arms. Harry noticed Draco right away.

"Now Hanna, Draco is Papa's godson and his mother just died so we need to be extra kind to him." Harry told her before approaching the bar. "Hey Draco. I was really sorry to hear about your mother. Will there be a memorial service?"

"There'll be a small private ceremony on Monday. Is this Hanna?"

"Yeah. Hanna this is Draco Malfoy."

"Are you a dragon?" Hanna asked causing both Harry and Draco to laugh.

"No my name does mean dragon but I'm not a dragon." Draco answered. "So what are we gonna do today?"

"Well Hanna needs to get some new robes, a broom and some basic potions supplies and I need to get some books so I can take my NEWTs in a few months. Severus is going to teach Hanna to make healing potions."

"That's Sev alright. He started teaching me potions when I was five. How old are you Hanna?"

"Three."

"So that's why Sev didn't know until yesterday. You were only a few months pregnant when he left weren't you?"

Harry nodded. "A little over a month. I had found out the day of the attack but hadn't gotten a chance to tell him before it all happened." Harry answered as they reached the entrance to Diagon Alley. "Draco would you be willing to watch Hanna while I go to Gringott's? I don't want her to get sick from the cart ride."

"You really trust me with her?"

"If Sev trust you then you can't be that bad. Anyways she has tracking spells on her so I can find her if she gets lost." Harry replied as he handed her to Draco. "Now be good Hanna and no doing magic."

"Yes Daddy." She smiled as she clung to Draco.

"Let's go to the Weasley twins' shop. Would you like that?"

"Yes Dragon." Hanna answered her eyes lighting up.

"Malfoy?!?! What are you doing with our niece?" Fred asked as Draco walked into the store.

"Harry asked me to watch her while he went to Gringott's." Draco answered without his usual sneer.

"How do we know you're not lying? You could have kidnapped her for all we know."

"You really think she'd be this calm and happy if I had?" Draco asked in reply then began to walk around the store. Fred and George didn't trust him so they watched him until Harry arrived.

Harry greeted the twins briefly before leaving the shop with Draco and Hanna. The three of them spent the morning picking out books, robes and potions ingredients. They had ice cream and lunch at Florean's then found a broom for Hanna. It was quite amusing to see her try to carry the broom around since the one she picked was quite a bit larger then her. After they finished their shopping the three of them apparated to Godric's Hollow.

Harry put Hanna down for her nap then he and Draco spent time catching up. Draco's life had changed profusely since Harry had last spoken to him. Lucius had escaped from Azkaban and been killed by Voldemort just before Draco graduated. His mother had been tortured to insanity by Death Eaters and had been slowly dying at St. Mungo's for the past two years. Draco had joined the Order as a spy of sorts in his last year at Hogwarts, spying mostly on his house mates. He tried to get a steady job in the wizarding world but his family's name was against him so he kept jumping from one job to another.

When Hanna woke from her nap the three of them flooed back to Hogwarts. Severus was still teaching so they decided to surprise him by getting his new quarters reopened and set up. They got Dobby and a few other house elves to help them move all of Sev's books and belongings to the new room. By the time Sev finished his classes and returned to his old quarters they had gotten the new rooms fully furnished and inhabitable. Sev was very shocked when he couldn't get into his room.

"I think you'll have better luck if you go to the proper door." Draco told his godfather in his usual drawl. He'd come down to retrieve Sev knowing he would go to his old rooms.

"What do you mean by that Draco? This is the door to my quarters." Sev snapped back. He'd had a long day and was really in need of a drink.

"Not anymore. We moved all your stuff to your new quarters on the third floor."

"Papa." Hanna screamed as she ran down the stairs to Sev.

"What are you doing here little bugger?" Sev asked then he saw Harry coming down the stairs as well.

"I decided I didn't want to cook tonight so we're just gonna eat here. Also Draco and I took the liberty to move you to your new quarters. So lets get you reacquainted with your rooms before it's time for dinner." Harry said taking Sev's hand and leading him up the stairs.

For the next two weeks Harry and Hanna split their time between Hogwarts and Godric's Hollow. On the days they weren't at the castle Draco would visit them at Godric's Hollow. He began to teach Hanna to ride her broom and also began teaching her to read the potions and spell books Harry had gotten for her. After two weeks Harry realized that Hanna was happiest when they were all together at the castle so they decided to move in with Sev for the remainder of the school year. Draco stayed with them as well and began helping Harry prepare for his NEWTs. Harry had decided he'd take his NEWTs at the end of the term with the seventh years.

A few nights after they moved into the castle, Harry and Sev were in the lab working on potions when Harry suggested that they make Draco, Hanna's godfather.

"She's really gotten attached to him and he's so great with her. Hanna actually asked if he could be her godfather the other day so I thought I should ask you what you thought about it." Harry explained.

"I thinks that's a wonderful idea Harry. It'll really solidify him as a part of our family. In the wizarding world a godparent isn't just a title, it actually makes the person practically family. I think Draco would be honored to do that." Severus replied.

"Honored to do what?" Draco asked as he joined them. He had gotten into the habit of reading to Hanna before she went to bed every night.

"Hanna wants you to be her godfather and we agree." Harry answered.

"You want me to be Hanna's godfather?" They both nodded. "I'd be honored but won't Weasley be upset that you're not making him godfather?"

"Hanna chose you. She only sees Ron as her uncle but she sees you as her godfather. She's really gotten attached to you over the past few weeks. You are already her godfather in her eyes. We just want to make it official. So do you accept or not?"

"I accept. Oh thank you both. This means the world to me." Draco hugged them both.

"Is Hanna in bed?" Harry asked once Draco released him.

"Yeah. She's waiting for you to go tuck her in."

"Thanks Draco." Harry smiled at his previous nemesis then went to tuck his daughter into bed. "Night sweetie." Harry kissed Hanna's forehead gently then returned to the sitting room. "She wants you to come say good night to her Sev."

"Alright." Severus got off the couch and went to say good night to Hanna. "Night little bugger."

"Night papa." Hanna whispered then fell asleep. Severus laughed to himself about how quickly Hanna could fall asleep.

"What's so amusing Sev?" Draco asked as his godfather returned to the living room.

"Hanna. She fell right asleep after I said good night to her."

"She does that a lot. That's one thing I was always grateful for when she was younger. As long as I said good night to her and I was happy she'd go right to sleep." Harry said with a smile before yawning. "I'm going to bed. I'll see you in the morning Draco. You coming Sev?"

"I'll be right there Harry." Sev gave Harry a quick kiss before letting him go to their room. "You said you wanted to talk to me about something Draco?"

"It can wait. It's not that important anymore. You've had a long day and deserve to get some rest. I'll talk to you in the morning Sev." Draco gave him a weak smile then went to his room. Severus stared after him for a moment then went to join Harry.

"Is Draco ok? He seemed a little sad today." Harry asked as Severus crawled into bed with him.

"He says he's fine but I don't believe him. I'm going to talk to him in the morning about what's bothering him."

"Alright. Night love." Harry tried to give him a quick good night kiss but Sev just wouldn't let go. The kiss was filled with desperation and yearning. "What's gotten into you Sev?" Harry asked breathlessly when his lips were finally released.

"I've been trying to control myself since you came back but I can't do it any longer. I need you Harry. I need to touch you and show you how much I love you."

Harry smiled and began undressing Sev while Sev undressed him. They were both quickly freed of their clothes and Harry cast a powerful silencing and locking charm on the door. He knew that Draco would be able to take it down if Hanna really needed them so he wasn't worried. They slowly began to explore each others bodies with their lips and hands causing the other to gasp in pleasure.

Severus had always been the more aggressive one in their relationship before and that hadn't really changed in the past years they'd been apart. Harry soon found his hard leaking cock inside Sev's warm wet mouth. The older wizard teased him with his tongue running it along the tip causing Harry to shudder in pleasure. He was nearing his pinnacle when Severus pulled away. Harry was about to complain when he felt the familiar sensation of lubricate covering his hard cock.

"Tonight I want to feel you inside me." Severus nearly hissed in Harry's ear before moving so that Harry could take him. Harry had only done this with Severus once so it was still slightly weird to him but he wasn't about to complain. He started slowly but soon he was pounding into Severus with all his passion. It wasn't long before Harry gave into the pleasure and filled Severus with his cum. Harry pulled out and collapsed on the bed beside Severus.

"Can I feel you inside me Sev? I need to feel you. It's been so long since I've felt this kind of pleasure." Harry asked breathlessly and Sev began to prepare the younger wizard. Soon Harry was screaming in pleasure as Severus pounded him to completion once more. Sev cast a quick cleaning charm on both of them before pulling Harry tightly into his arms and falling asleep. Harry feel asleep smiling in the arms of the man he loved.

Hanna was awoken by an odd mixture of emotions. She could feel the total excitement that her papa and daddy felt but she was also feeling a serge of sadness as well. She couldn't figure out how someone could have that much excitement and still be sad when she realized it was Draco's sadness she felt. Quietly getting out of her bed she went into Draco's room. She saw Draco crying silently in his sleep so she carefully got on the bed and took her godfather's head into her lap.

"Why does my Dragon cry?" She asked in a whisper.

"Hanna? How did you know I was crying?" Draco asked through his silent tears.

"I felt that you were sad so I came to make you better." She leaned down and kissed his forehead. "Tell me why you cry Dragon."

"It's nothing Hanna." Draco tried to sit up but Hanna was stronger then she looked and held him firmly in her lap.

"You can't lie to me Dragon. I know you are sad for a reason so tell me and I'll try to make it better." Hanna whispered while gently running her small hands through Draco's hair.

"I guess I'm jealous of what Harry and Sev have. They've found someone who truly loves them and they have you. I've never been loved like that before and I'll never be able to have a child of my own."

"Why not Dragon?"

"While helping your papa beat Voldemort I was hit by so many bad spells that Madam Pomphrey said I'll never be able to have children of my own. I felt a little better when your daddy and Papa asked me to be your godfather but then it reminded me I'll never have what they have."

"Yes you will my Dragon." Hanna kissed his brow then jumped off the bed. She ran back into her room and pulled down one of the spell books Harry had gotten for her. She found the spell she wanted and memorized it quickly before returning to Draco. "I'm going to heal you my dragon. Then you can be happy and have babies."

Draco knew that Hanna was powerful but doubted she could actually heal him. He didn't want to upset her anymore then she already was so he decided to humor her. "Alright Hanna. Just be gentle." Hanna nodded and placed her hands gently on Draco's stomach. He began to feel a strong tingly feeling fill his lower torso and then it passed and Hanna lifted her hands smiling.

"My Dragon will be happy now." She crawled along the bed until she was next to Draco. "Can I stay with you tonight Dragon?"

"Sure Hanna." He held his arms open for her and she snuggled up against his chest falling straight to sleep. Draco watched her sleep for a few minutes before closing his eyes and falling asleep as well.
