Disclaimer: Of course I don't own this, if I was JKR would I really be writing fanfics? NO I would damn well be writing a sequel for all my adoring fans.

A/N: Hi all, my apology for the wait and this chapters brevity, though the scene in here should make up for it a bit, I just got stuck wanting to add more and ending up with nothing. Chapter 11 is now being written so if you want any particular scene to occur once you have read this REVIEW lol. Enjoy.

Chapter 10: Ministries and reunions.

Seven am on Boxing Day and Scorpius Malfoy was pacing his family's parlour. He had been packed for days, with a few additions and adjustments early that morning, and had been waiting, showered, primped and clothed, for an hour now, desperately wishing his parents were earlier risers.

At eight am, just as Scorpius was making up his mind to go and wake them by force he heard his mother wander down the stairs, as his father use their ensuite to prepare for the day. Unlike Astoria Malfoy, Draco was due into the office at the Ministry at eleven, it was from there that Scorpius was meeting up with Harry Potter, head of the Magical Law Enforcement Office, and Hermione Weasley, Deputy Minister for Magic, and rumoured successor within two years, so that he could travel back to the Potter house with them. Eight forty five and Draco Malfoy prepared to depart, his over eager son bouncing at his side.

Scorpius had been to the Ministry many times in his life, from the time he could form decent sentences really, but the business and grandeur of the place still struck him every time he entered the complex.

Scorpius followed his father through the crowds and allowed the man to direct who he greeted and who he ignored. Scorpius' father was the Deputy Head of Illicit Belongings, he had reached his post quickly with his uncanny ability of identifying Dark objects, and as such he made sure Scorpius only made impressions with those people who would be useful to the boy or himself. Scorpius knew what his father was doing when he directed his son's conversations and let him because Scorpius knew he should keep his father happy, especially near his work.

The two Malfoys arrived at Draco's offices and were greeted by a small contingent of Aurors, Magical Lawyers and the Head of Magical Law Enforcement, the Deputy Minister for Magic and the Minister of Magic himself. Draco stopped and stared at the group, never had this many high standing witches and wizards congregated outside his department and coughing he drew their attention to his and Scorpius' appearance. Harry Potter stepped forward smiling at the two blond's in front of him, he had been civil towards Draco for years after the war as they worked together and had grown more friendly with the man since their son's had become friends in first year.

"Sorry about the circus Draco, Hermione and I were going to come and collect Scorpius quietly but the Minister needed to see Hermione, which meant his two guard Aurors were required to join us, then the Lawyers arrived needing the Minister and myself and soon after them the Aurors from my department came looking." Harry looked sheepish at the end of his explanation. Draco laughed at the reason for the party that was still milling around his door, but before he made them all depart he gestured towards Scorpius for Harry's sake.

"I believe my son is to go with you Harry, look after him won't you. And don't let them get away with too much."

"Father!" Scorpius spat out quickly, shocked at his father's blatant innuendo that he was having sex.

Harry just nodded and smiled at Scorpius.

"Hello Scorpius, it is good to see you, I am sorry for my family giving you so much heart ache over this holiday period. And don't worry Draco, he will be fine and if I am in the house I doubt anything will happen."

"Oh Mr Potter, no it was no trouble, I am just sorry Albus and I caused such a stir with your family."

"Well that's enough of that, Harry, Hermione it was good to see you again, and I hope Scorpius behaves well for you. Minister it is always a pleasure to see you, but I believe I should be working and your contingent is blocking my office from me. The rest of you, I suggest you leave, quickly."

And with that the group departed, Harry, Hermione and Scorpius last, giving the two Malfoys time to share a rare moment of open affection by hugging each other goodbye.

Scorpius then spent the next few hours with one of the two adults. Harry was always being visited by Aurors or lawyers seeking his advice on matters ranging from, the smuggling of flying carpets into Burbank, to, under-aged wizardry in Sotheby's show rooms. When Scorpius grew tired of listening to a, grey haired, man prattle on about illegal tentacular horns, he nodded at Mr Potter and went to find Mrs Weasley. Hermione Weasley was more frequently interrupted than her brother – in – law. As Deputy Minister for Magic she was always needed by someone it seemed, this list included; the Minister for Magic's PA, the press, various Heads of Departments and of course her own Department which looked after the arrangement and relations with international Ministries of Magic. It was two thirty in the afternoon before they were both able to demand an end to their day and depart with Scorpius for the Potter house and their waiting families.

Arriving with Harry and Hermione at the Potter house, Scorpius was quickly swamped by a mass of teenagers that were still residing in the residence. The Longbottoms had left for their own home earlier that day leaving, Albus, Lily, James, Rose, Hugo, Lorcan, Lysander, Louis and Dominique to bombard the latest arrival in the very full house. Albus, Lily and Louis were soon able to extricate themselves and Scorpius and shoo the others away for a while. Knowing her brother and his boyfriend would want to greet each other properly before they could talk Lily dragged, a, none too happy, Louis into the next room; signalling to Albus that he had three minutes maximum.

Albus was quick to act on his short amount of alone time with Scorpius and quickly crushed his lips against the blond boy's own so fiercely he thought both sets might bruise. Scorpius, after a moment of shock, returned the kiss full force, Scorpius nipped at Albus' lower lip and as the dark haired boy gasped lightly Scorpius slipped his tongue between Albus' teeth. The two boys slid their tongues across each other's in Albus' hot and inviting maw before Scorpius began to withdraw. Sensing the movement Albus lightly bit down on the escaping part of Scorpius and sucked gently to draw it back in, Scorpius groaned at this action and was soon allowing Albus to lead the movement of the two duelling muscles, as he placed his arm around Albus' waist and pulled the smaller boy, hips first, towards him. As the two males hips and abdomens collided both could feel the struggling erections through the cloth of their clothes and with this new pressure being rubbed against him Albus practically melted into his boyfriends arms, going weak at the knees.

There was a small cough emitted from behind them and frowning slightly Scorpius looked up to see Lily and Louis had re-entered the room. His eyebrows furrowed and he waved for them to leave but Lily only shook her head and said,
"Times up, we need to talk before the rest get to you."

Muttering expletives as he forced himself to separate from Scorpius, the dark haired and minorly intoxicated Albus, stood straight on his own, when this was accomplished Lily lead the others into a side room with a few couches where the four of them were able to sit down comfortably. Making sure they were all settled Lily began.

"Now as hot as the five seconds I saw of that were, and yes it was hot even if one of you is my brother, and Louis would agree on that," here Lily looked at the only other blond male in the room, her cousin nodding, "it is that sort of thing that will lead to Mum or Uncle Ron flipping their, proverbial, lids. So this quick and precise meeting is for us to figure out how you guys are going to be able to do that, and maybe, if you're horribly lucky, more."
