Hei, guys! How are you? I have decided to post a really long chapter today and I hope you guys enjoy it! Thanks for the support and reviews/ comments! I really do enjoy reading them but there is one thing I need to clear up. I kind of want this story to last and I already have a whole summary to last more than 20 chapters, including the ones I have already written and posted. I'm sorry to disappoint you guys but Draco will stay in ferret form for a little longer!


Pale silver eyes fluttered open to see the bright rays of sunlight that bounced off the dresser mirror, hitting him directly in the face.

Draco cringed and moved away from the other's body. "Fucking shit! Bloody sunlight is trying to blind me!" He said as he covered his eyes and got out of bed.

The platinum haired man walked over to the windows and closed both sets of curtains. The room was now dark excluding the tiny bit of sunshine left that protruded from the top of the curtains that he couldn't quite reach.

He looked down to see a large lump twitch in the piles of blankets and sheets. He finally remembered what had happened last night. Harry had proposed a divorce with Ginny.

Draco grinned and sat down on Harry's side of the bed, gently brushing away some strands of hair that was covering his usually jade eyes. The dark haired man had not woken up yet though so Draco was a little disappointed not to see his beautiful eyes first thing in the morning.

Draco leaned down and gave Harry's lips a small peck before straightening up again and crawling on to his side of the bed.

He looked down and smiled before transforming back into a ferret. It was for the best after all. He looked up one last time and snuggled into Harry's chest and fell asleep to the comforting pound of his heartbeat.

Draco knew this was the way things had t get for now. It was best for all involved even though he could not help but hope for the future.

Harry woke up an hour after Draco and rubbed the sleepiness out of his eyes.

He looked over to the digital clock, '7:12' beeping in bright red numbers.

"Shit. The kids.", Harry mumbled, scrambling out from under the bed sheets.

He lifted himself out of the bed, groaning as his spine cracked. Harry sighed as he stretched and looked down at the sheets.

He picked up Draco and held him up on his shoulder as he changed from his pyjama pants to jeans. Draco stayed asleep as Harry walked over to each of the kids' rooms and smiled slightly when he saw Al sleeping in his own room and Lily sleeping with James in his. Lily had obviously been having that nightmare about 'big hairy monster coming to get her' again.

Harry walked down the stairs and started making breakfast. After cooking up four plates of scrambled eggs and bacon, he filled up Draco's bowls and laid him down in his own bed; Draco simply sniffed and rolled over, his underbelly showing.

Harry chuckled and sat down at the dining table, munching on his bacon while reviewing over some paperwork that he had grabbed from his study on the way to the breakfast table.

Harry looked up as soon as he heard footsteps running all over the place above him on the second floor. The kids could be heard perfectly from the lower floor. He smiled as Lily walked down in her pink nightgown, rubbing her eyes and yawning.

"Hi sweetheart. Did you have an okay sleep? I made some breakfast." Harry greeted her as she approached the table.

She smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Papa." She sat down and began eating. Only a few seconds after she started on her meal did James and Al start their descent of the stairs, bumping each other against the wall playfully until they reached the kitchen.

"I SMELLED BACON FROM UPSTAIRS!" Al said as he plopped himself onto the chair and began stuffing his mouth.

Harry smiled as James did the same. Not even the divorce could bring down their cheerful spirits. He remembered when they had first told him that their mother was acting strangely.

Lily was always in a bad mood when her mother was around because Ginny never agreed with her on anything. James and Al always thought she was too self-absorbed and narrow minded.

Harry looked down to see Draco pawing at his pant leg and lifted him upon to his lap. He started to pet Draco's head and smiled when he saw that Draco's food bowl was empty. The noise must have awoken him.

After finishing his plate, Harry stood up and lifted Draco up onto the table. He left his dishes in the sink to wash after they were all done and picked up his cell phone to call Lily's school.

Draco frowned as Harry made his way out of the kitchen and up to his study. He considered running up after him but decided otherwise. Harry needs his space too.

He looked towards the kids as James gave him an extra piece of bacon. He smiled and ate in silence while Lily was arguing with Al over this famous cartoon that was playing on the small TV that stood on the kitchen counter.

"Kids, how would you feel if I said that we are going to an amusement park today?" Harry smiled at them. They grinned back and nodding their heads enthusiastically.

Ginny had never let them go to an amusement park before because it was 'too dangerous.'

Lily smiled and jumped up. She picked up Draco and held him to her chest.

"Can Draco go? I'm sure he will have fun too!" Lily pet Draco's head and looked up to her father, who was considering her proposal. The two boys piped up first while Harry was still thinking.

"Lily, where are we going to put him? He might get lost! Or eaten..." Al piped up.

"No! Draco's strong! He won't get eaten!" The little redheaded girl glared at him as if she was as greatly offended by his comment as Draco was.

Harry laughed and took Draco from her arms. "Al is right. We might need to leave him in here. It's extremely hot today and if we leave him in the car, he might melt. Ferrets hate the heat."

Harry patted her head and walked over to put Draco on his bed. Lily pouted.

"Can we just leave the air conditioner on for him then?" James chuckled.

"We can if you want to stay in the parking lot for the rest of your life. The air conditioner is going to drain the battery." , Harry dismissed.

Lily frowned at the floor and her fingers were fiddling with the hem of her sleeve. She sniffed and sat back down on her chair, her eyes watering and a small tear escaped.

"Oh, Lily. Please don't cry. Draco will be here when we come back." Harry started but Lily shook her head stubbornly.

"No! I want him to come with us!" She crossed her arms and began kicking at the chair leg since her feet couldn't reach the floor just yet.

Albus sighed and took his dishes to put in the sink; he always tried his best to keep away from his little sister's temper tantrum.

"Dad, maybe we should bring him. He could come with us in his harness and leash while we walk around. You hardly go on the rides anyway. The amusement park near the boardwalk allows pets." James suggested, hoping for a compromise.

Harry looked at Lily, who had calmed down a little from her tantrum but was still pouting. He then looked down at Draco who stared up at him with silver beaming eyes.

"...okay, fine. Draco can come too. But if he gets lost or eaten, I'm not paying for another pet. He's your responsibility too."

Lily looked up and smiled as did Draco. "Really, Daddy? Thank you! You didn't have to!" Lily jumped up to give her father a hug then ran to find Draco's cage.

Harry rolled his eyes. 'I didn't have to? Are you serious?', He thought as he made his way upstairs to change and take a shower.

The children all smiled and laughed and sang along with the pop song blaring from the car's speakers as Draco sat comfortably in his cage.

The blonde ferret so he let his mind wander to the time he spent in Harry's bed, wrapped in the dark haired man's consuming once in a while, he would wake up in the middle of the night and stare lovingly at Harry's face. The smooth and chubby cheeks, the perfect little nose and his plump lips made Draco weak at the knees. His tan skin had contrasted very nicely against his own pale skin.

A loud beep awoke Draco from his daydream. Draco slammed into the side of the cage as Harry hit the breaks to avoid the oncoming vehicle that had served hazardously across the road.

Albus held the cage close to avoid any further damage and checked if Draco was okay once they had properly gotten on track again.

Lily's ears were covered as Harry yelled very inappropriate profanities at the other driver. James chuckled at Draco's shocked face; his claws were hanging on the cage door. Draco glared up at the eldest sibling and composed himself so he could crawl back into his corner and continue to daydream about how much he wanted to kiss Harry's plump lips.

They soon arrived at the amusement park and Draco was put into a harness and leash as they made their way past the long line for tickets.

Harry had booked their tickets before they left so they had VIP passes and everything. Draco was given a little pin so he could be found if he ever ran off by accident.

He glared at Lily when she tried to pin it on his harness; she wasn't careful with the pin and it had accidentally pricked him on the back of his neck.

As soon as the identification take was pinned on, Harry had taken ahold of the leash and let the kids run around and get into the lines for the roller coasters and to take pictures with the main mascots of the amusement park.

While James and Albus got into the short lines of the rides (their VIP tags had helped them get first seats), Lily had dragged her father around the huge fairy princess castle and the little booths that sold candy apples, popcorn, cotton candy and princess-like items such as pink princess wands and tiny pink tiaras.

Unfortunately, there were also mini shelves with tiny bows in all sorts of colors. Lily picked a green one out for Draco and pinned it on his harness too.

Draco sighed internally. He had to walk around with this damn thing on his back until they got back home. 'Great.'

He rolled his eyes at the child's folly and yelped as his leash pulled him back. Lily started to drag Harry into the castle as Draco ran to catch up.

Once inside, there were little booths with cheap sparkly nail polish and lip gloss being sold. There were also hair care stations where several little girls dressed in gowns and tutus sat on the stools as professional hair employees braided, curled, straightened, and decorated their hair.

Draco was almost blinded by all the pink and purple that decorated the inside of the castle. He sat comfortably on Harry's lap while Lily ran around talking to the other girls and comparing hair accessories and nail polish.

Draco purred and rolled around as Harry petted and scratched him affectionately.

Harry looked down and smiled. Draco really was adorable. The ferret yipped as he felt the cold metal of the pins touch his bare skin. He quickly straightened himself back on his tummy and looked up.

Harry giggled and scratched the back of Draco's neck. Draco's body stretched and flattened against Harry's lap as he let himself relax. Harry looked up and saw his little girl smiling and talking with another girl.

The girl had bright blonde hair that was curled into ringlets, which reached all the way down to the middle of her back. Her light purple dress swayed and her light purple shoes glimmered in the bright pink lights as she followed Lily to the hair care stations.

They giggled and were constantly chatting as their hair was decorated with little bows and beads. Harry smiled and decided that it was time to go and find Albus and James. Just as the last bead was put in place, Harry called for Lily, who pouted and said goodbye to her new friend.

Lily was talking nonstop about her new friend and what they were talking about as Harry held her hand to his side and listened, Draco following on Harry's other side.

They finally found James and Albus lining up for another roller coaster. James looked happy and excited as they moved forward in the line while Albus looked like he was about to throw up.

He always did have a queasy stomach after all so Harry couldn't blame him. He still allowed James to drag him up the stairs and into the little car.

Albus looked pleadingly at his father but Harry just grinned back and waved. Al sighed as he put on his seatbelt and lowered the safety bar. They zoomed off as soon as Harry turned to look at his watch. '11:45 already?'

Lily dragged him to an empty bench as they waited for the brothers to finish their ride. Harry turned around as soon as he heard Lily giggle. Draco was sitting relaxed in her lap as she pet his head.

Harry smiled and looked up at the blue clear sky. Such a pretty day. Not too cold and not too hot either. He leaned back on the bench and closed his eyes, listening to any nearby sounds for anything interesting.

The only things he could hear were children and families laughing together, some young couples making out and a couple of kids arguing over a stuffed toy. He couldn't help but laugh when he heard Albus screaming from the roller coaster.

Just then Lily's shrieks pulled him from his trance.

"Draco! Where are you going?! Come back!" He heard Lily cry.

His eyes snapped out and straightened up in his seat, looking for Draco. He saw the little ferret running off, his leash flying behind him.

Harry quickly stood up, grabbed Lily's hand and ran off after the ferret only to stop suddenly and run into someone.

He quickly pulled himself up and apologized to the other man before he noticed who it was.

"Hello, Harry! How've you been? And sweet little Lily, too!", Sirius greeted the pair with a lopsided grin.

Harry stood there astonished for a minute before helping his godfather up off of the ground.

"Thank you. How are you guys today? And why are you not in school, young lady?"

Lily smiled but then looked down and frowned. Sirius looked at her sadly for a moment before facing Harry, his questioning look making Harry fidget for a moment.

"I proposed a divorce with Ginny last night. She left and I gave the kids a day off school for today. They needed it.", Harry mumbled softly so as not to upset Lily any more than she already was.

Sirius nodded. He never did like the Weasley girl anyway. Apparently, the girl was a cat person and Sirius, being the dog he is, was instantly appalled.

"Well, hello to you too Harry." Harry looked up and noticed Remus standing there looking fairly amused as Sirius brushed off his pants and gave Draco a little pet.

So that's why he ran off; he had sensed when Sirius was close enough. Harry gave Lupin a small smile.

"Hello, Professor Lupin. How've you been?"

Remus nodded and smiled. "Peachy." Lily looked up from her depressed stupor and smiled.

"Hi, Uncle Remus!" She jumped up and was lifted into Remus's arms.

"How are you today, my dear?" Remus asked. She smiled and giggled.

"I'm fine, sir." Remus smiled and pinched her cheek. "Cute as always." He dropped her gently back down on her feet and looked at Sirius who was then chatting with Harry about how Draco had been doing.

"He's doing fine. He seems to like living with us and is very comfortable around the children most of the time". Harry paused for a second before chuckling fondly. " He does love his bacon strips though."

Sirius laughed and nudged at Draco's chin. "He does, doesn't he? Oh well, Remus and I were just hanging out today so we better get going. I can't leave the shop with Neville for a long time. We'll see you later though, Harry. Have fun and take care of Draco for me!"

He called over his shoulder as Remus turned and left with him, waving goodbye. Lily smiled and waved back.

"Bye, Uncles!", she said.

As soon as Sirius and Remus had left, James and Albus made their way back towards the bench.

"How was the ride, Al? Hopefully, I won't get sued for letting you puke on the roller coaster?", James said jokingly.

Albus blushed and shook his head. Harry laughed at his sons and stood up, Draco climbing up his shirt to rest around Harry's shoulders.

"Let's get some lunch then, yeah? I'm getting hungry.", Harry offered.

The kids cheered as they started walking to get in line for the closest joint they could find which just happened to have been a burger place.

Draco jumped when he felt a strange hand pulling at his tail. He turned around swiftly to see a small child being held back by her mother. She giggled and tried to reach for his tail again.

Harry sensed Draco's discomfort and turned around to see what happened. The little girl smiled up at him and he smiled back before offering to pet Draco. The ferret shrieked away from Harry's hand that was trying to pull him off, but his claws dug into his shirt. No way was the little brat going to touch him!

Despite his refusal, Draco loosened his claws and allowed himself to get pet. Disappointing Harry was way worse than getting touched by the kid's grubby hands.

"I like your bow, Mr. Ferret. It suits you.", the little girl said.

Lily turned around to see what was going on before grinning and walking around her father to meet the girl.

"Doesn't it? I chose it for him. Makes him look a bit charming, right?"

The other girl nodded. Albus piped up. "Are you kidding me? He looks fabulous!"

Draco smirked proudly at that comment. He hated the bow but didn't mind the compliments that came with it. 'I do look fabulous, don't I?' He thought as he jumped from the girl's arms and onto the front of Harry's shirt.

After eating lunch with the girl and her mother, the family decided to go around the game booths to soothe their calming stomachs before going on the rides again. James had fun bewitching the booths every time he and Al played so they would win something every time.

Since Lily was too young to start using magic, her father brought her around the other games and won several things for her.

By the time they finished playing all the games, their arms were full with prizes and stuffed animals. James volunteered to drop them off at the car while Harry, Draco and his siblings went to get ice cream. He was never one for sugars anyway.

Harry was too busy with Lily who was crying because she didn't win any games on her own that he didn't notice Draco fall off of his shoulders and onto the floor.

Draco, who was taking a nap before he fell jumped before he hit the floor and panicked. He couldn't find Harry and was bound to get trampled if he didn't move out of the way.

The blonde ferret decided to find shelter in a bathroom and transformed into a human before running out and looking for his family.

He didn't notice Harry searching for him as well. Draco gasped as he looked through the crowd and found Harry staring right back at him; his eyes widened in shock as he tried to walk closer. He hoped that Harry wouldn't recognize him in human form. Draco didn't think that either of them were ready for that just yet.

Harry's emerald orbs widened in recognition.

'No way. This isn't possible! Is that the boy from the robe shop? I-it can't be!'

Harry looked into those deep silver eyes and started to chase him.

Draco started to run away and Harry struggled to catch up. Lily looked over at her father running and pointed. Albus looked away from his ice cream to see what happened.

"Dad! Where are you going? Should we stay here?"

Harry shouted back yes as he ran. The other man ran behind a sign and Harry followed him. He turned around the corner and stopped. The boy had disappeared. In his place was the small white ferret he had been looking for.

"Draco! There you are! Did you see a man white white blonde hair and silver eyes pass by here?"

The ferret shook his head and looked down before he ran up Harry's arm and back around his shoulders. Harry sighed and gave up. He walked back over to see his kids waiting on a bench patiently, their eyes searching for their father and their pet. Harry walked back and smiled.

"I think we did enough today. We should probably go back home, yeah?" Harry suggested. The kids nodded their heads and followed their father out of the amusement park and into the parking lot. After getting in the car and driving up the highway, Draco fell asleep in his cage and sighed.

That was a close one. He almost got caught in his human form. No matter how relieved he felt, he was a little sad and disappointed that Harry didn't recognize him once he had returned to being a ferret.

He couldn't help didn't know how Harry would react if he found out. He probably wouldn't want him anymore, whether he was the boy from the shop or not. He sighed and fell asleep. Oh well. Maybe next time...


Again, I'm sorry to disappoint you guys but I hope the next couple of chapters will clear things up and will be worth it! Thank you guys again for reading my story!
