Chapter 14: Hold on

"Any sign of him?" Remus asked after everyone met back up.

"Nothing, but we do know that they aparated away but who ever did it covered their tracks pretty well. Cleaned up their mess afterwards, no DNA, no shoe prints. It's like the person who did this was a ghost."

"Well, there was this one girl who upset Tiger one day." Daniel said, looking at Thomas.

"The one that told Tiger something bad right? What was her name? Sophie? Sammie?"

"Stephanie Del Russo." Harry said, walking up to the group. "I remember her trying to make moves on Dragon in one of my classes."

"Alright, so where is she now?"

"She's not in her rooms." Draco said, walking up to the group also.

"So now we at least have something to go by. Let's pull out her records and check up on her background. Why Dragon? Why now? and Where." Alohov stated, before going up to the headmaster's office to pull out her file.

"Drag, sing me a song?" Stephanie asked, walking into the room and laying down besides Dragon. "Please?"

"You want me to sing you a song? How about go fuck yourself lalalala go fuck yourself lalalala your an insane bitch."

"That's not a very nice song Drag. Come on, you sing Mat songs."

"I have never sung Mat a song, I might dedicate songs to him, but they aren't wrote for him. Do you understand what being my girlfriend would mean? What Mat has to deal with?"

"Yeah, you serenade him, and have sex with him, and love him, and buy him things and life's perfect." Stephanie drew patterns on Dragon's chest with her fingers.

"Don't touch me." Dragon moved her hand away and got up to sit on the window sill. "That is nothing what life with me is like Stephanie, and I'm sorry if we gave you that perception. However, life with me is like living life alone. Mat comes second in my life, my band comes first. My job and fans will always come first, then my kid, and then my husband. He pretty much sleeps in a bed with himself, while I'm in another room making a CD, or answering fan mail, or creating a tour, press conference, doing family business things, finishing homework. The only time Mat sees me is breakfast, lunch, dinner, and sometimes early in the morning when I crawl into bed. Tiger sees me more than Mat does, not to mention that I obivously put my family in danger with being kidnapped every other month it seems. So instead of wanting to be Mat, you should be pitying Mat. He's pretty much married to himself, he's pretty much going to be raising two kids alone."

"Your lieing."

"I'm not lieing. I bet you Mat doesn't even know I'm missing." Dragon said looking upset. "I haven't been the best husband at all, seriously if you were to look up that offical fan site thingy that Mat had made for me, you'll see that I post on it at all times of the day and night. Most of the time it even states that Mat and Tiger are asleep and that I've been working on a new song for the album."

"Well, if you were with me, I'd make you take breaks and enjoy your family. I wouldn't allow you to let your career run your life." Stephanie said, smiling before getting up and leaving the room.

"Fuck, I can't even convince her I'm a bad guy. Fuck Dragon, think." Dragon said, punching the wall.

Mat was violently woken up later that night by stomach cramps, and went in search of Dragon. "Drag? You in here?" Mat asked, looking into one of the work rooms. "Dobby?" Mat called, finally giving in he curled into a ball on the floor.

"Mister Mat! What's wrong!" Dobby called, trying to help Mat to his feet.

"Something's wrong Dobby and I can't find Dragon. Can you get him for me please Dobby, please hurry!" Mat screamed, as another sharp pain hit him in his stomach.

"I go get Professor Malfoy! Mister Dragon missing!" Dobby said, apparating very quickly to Draco and Harry. "Masters Potter!"

"What is it Dobby?" Harry asked, looking at the little house elf over student essays.

"It's Mister Mat! There's something wrong with the baby!" Harry took one look at Draco before following Dobby to Mat.

"What's wrong Mat?" Harry asked, scooping the boy up into his arms.

"I don't know, something's wrong with the baby, it's not due for another three months!"

"Mat you have to calm down, being stressed out is not good for the baby." Harry said, helping Mat get to the infirmary before getting Chastity.

"Hey Mat, look everything will be fine I promise." Chastity said before going about checking Mat over.

KimeKimeKimeKime

"Okay so we have a tiny tiny problem." Chastity said, coming into the room behind the head table in the Great Hall.

"And what would that be?" Daniel asked looking up. "Dragon's not like dead right?"

"Seriously? That would be a tiny tiny problem in your head? A TINY TINY problem!" Thomas asked, hitting Daniel over the head.

"Well if he was only half dead on the verge of not being dead, but happened to be found, and therefore was no longer lost and in the hands of a crazy person, then yeah it would only be a tiny tiny problem."

"GUYS! Okay, this tiny tiny problem doesn't have the time for you two to fight!" Chastity yelled hitting her hands down on the table. "So I lied, it's a medium to BIG problem!"

"What is it Chast?" Remus asked, glaring at the two guys.

"Mat's gone into labor, the baby's going to be two months premature, and he knows that Dragon's missing thanks to Dobby."

"And that's a problem?" Daniel asked looking confused. "Mat will have a baby, that's happy news!"

"Except he refuses to have the baby, let alone push or accept any type of drugs, until Dragon is in that delievery room. He doesn't want to go through this alone, and he doesn't want Dragon to miss the birth of their child."

"How long does that give us?"

"Well it's Mat's first birth so anywhere between tweleve to forty eight hours? If not longer. However, that doesn't help when we have no clue where Dragon is, and if he's not here for the birth of his son, I swear to you all Mat will never ever forgive any of us, including Dragon."

"Alright then, we have a day to find Dragon. Let's get to work then." Remus said, before doubling the search party.

"I can't believe this, I've been stuck here for two days." Dragon said, waking up and throwing a shoe at the wall. "I hate this, I hate being stuck here!! Yesterday I was all safe and sound in Hogwarts, going to the stupid room with Daniel and now I'm trapped in this fucking brick room, with this fucking crazy-"

"Morning."

"Is it? I never would have guessed." Dragon said, pointing out the window.

"Well, I have good news and bad news. The good news is, you look a lot better having been away from Mat, and that I bet your starting to fall for me. The bad news, according to the T.V. and radio, Mat's due to have the baby soon. He went into labor last night."

"WHAT!" Dragon asked, jumping to his feet.

KimeKimeKime

"I wonder." Daniel said, walking down the corridor with Thomas and their friend Megan.

"Wonder what?" Thomas asked, turning towards them.

"You'll see." Daniel said with a smile.

KimeKimeKime

"He wrote!" Daniel exclaimed running into the infirmary. "He wants you to push Matty it says so right here. He doesn't want you to put yourself or the baby in danger, and that he's figuring away out as we speak. He just doesn't know exactly where he is."

"Y-you found him?" Mat asked, panting. Harry wiped off his head with a cool cloth as his mum went to get him a cup of ice chips.

"Yeah sweety, and he wants you to listen to Chastity. You need to push sweetie." Daniel said, holding Mat's hand.

"No, please don't make me. Not without Dragon here." Mat said, looking at Daniel with tears in his eyes.

"We'll give him an hour Mathew, but if he's not here then you're going to have to push." Chastity said, checking Mat over.

"Okay." Mat said, turning his head to the side and crying on his pillow.

"Daniel can I see you outside?" Harry asked, following Daniel out of the Infirmary. "I want to try something, do you mind if I borrow your owl?"

Half an hour later, Dragon was still pacing inside his room, tears flowing down his cheeks. He laid in bed and curled up into a ball, giving up. The room was magically sealed, and there was no way for Dragon to get out. Little did Dragon know that help was already on it's way.

"THERE!" Daniel said, pointing to where his bird disappeared through a window. "That's where Dragon is!"

"Keep your voice down, do you want the person inside to know we're here. If they're even tipped off a tiny bit, they'll move Dragon faster than we can blink, and right now we don't need that." Alohov yelled in a whisper. With a wave of his hand, he sent his aurors to surround the building, putting up anti-apparation shields around it, while talking into a small gadget with someone from the Ministry of Magic's Transportation department to get the Floo system for the area turned off.

"Okay, now Daniel and Thomas we need you to stay here, and stay low. There's no need to have a potential hostage situation on our hands with the current one going on. However, we need you to be look outs also, we don't know if she's working alone or not, so any suspicious movement outside of the house, we need to know about." Remus said, handing them a walkie.

"And where do you think your going?" Alohov asked, turning towards Remus.

"To save my Godson."

"My godson." Sirius remarked, looking at Remus. "Mine. You can have Tiger."

"Now is not the time you two. Remus you are the Minster of Magic and that means that we can not allow you to enter a dangerous situation, the ministry and the public would have my head in a second. So what was it? Oh yes, we need you to stay here and stay low. There's no need to have a-"

"Alohov I swear finish that sentence and find out where you're sleeping tonight." Remus warned, as Sirius gently pushed Remus over towards the two kids.

"At least I'll know the person upstairs is alive and well and able to care for our son."

"Fine. I'll stay here." Remus said, pouting.

"Good. Now, come on everyone. Let's go in and resuce Dragon." The group carefully moved towards the door, before blasting it open.

KimeKimeKime

"Okay Matty, we can't wait any longer you have to push." Chastity said, as Mat's mother held his hand.

"No, please D-dragon's not here." Mat said, looking between the two girls.

"I'm sorry baby, but we can't wait any longer. If you don't push, you could end up hurting the both of you." Mat's mother said kissing his forehead. "And I know for a fact that Dragon and I don't want that."

"Fine." Mat said, between tears.

"Okay Mat, on the next contraction you have to push." Chastity instructed, before sitting down infront of Mat. Not two seconds later, Mat was starting to push.

KimeKimeKimeKime

"Clear!" One of the aurors called out, rounding a corner. The rest of the team followed up the stairs.

"Dragon?" Alohov called out.

"IN HERE! I'M IN HERE!" Dragon called out, banging on the door. The aurors ran into the corridor filled with doors.

"Dragon we need you to stand away from the door, as far as you can get and cover yourself with something heavy. Tell us when you've done this!" Harry called out. Dragon started tipping over the bed as best as he could as a shield and pushed it as far from the door as possible. He quickly hid behind it, covering himself with the blankets.

"Okay I'm covered! Hurry up! Get me OUT OF HERE!" Dragon yelled.

"That's great Dragon, now just cover your ears we don't want you to go deaf from the blasting. We'll give you a second." Dragon quickly covered his ears with the pillow and his hands.

"Okay guys start blasting." The group worked their way from one end of the hallway to another, blasting doors open. The yells of clear echoing down the cooridor. Finally, half way down the hallway, they found him.

"He's in here!" An auror called, entering the room. Harry and Draco ran as fast as they could down the hallway and into the room, they moved the bed aside, and carefully took off the blanket so that the stones from the wall and pieces of wood from the door wouldn't harm Dragon. Harry scooped him up into his arms and held him close.

"Your safe now." Harry reassured, changing Dragon's clothes for him.

"How's Mat? The baby?" Dragon asked, looking at the group.

"He's still in labor, the baby's fine."

"Good, but really I need to get to him!"

"Go on, we lifted the wards. She's not here." Alohov said, before Dragon apparated to the Hogwarts grounds and started running as fast as he had ever done in his life. He burst into the infirmary, running over to the curtains.

"Did I miss it?" Dragon asked, going to Mat's side.

"NO!" Mat said, pushing and crying. "He's breech, Chastity's trying to turn him."

"It'll be okay baby, I'm here now, everything will be okay." Dragon said, getting behind Mat. "Just take this time to rest back against me, and relax. Come on, breath like me." Dragon tried to control his breathing as best as he could, while rubbing Mat's stomach, using his magic to move the baby without harming it, and of course without Mat knowing.

"He's moved, okay Mat you know the drill." Chastity said, getting ready. "The head's already crowned, so all you have to do is push it out." Dragon held Mat's legs for him.

"Come on baby, you can do this, and when your done we'll have such a great little family. We'll have two sons, and they'll be so great together." Dragon said, kissing Mat's head. On the next contraction Mat pushed as hard as he could, gripping Dragon's hand as hard as possible.

"That's it Mat he's almost here, just one last push." Chastity said, holding the head of the baby. Mat pushed one more time before they both heard the sound of their baby's cry.

"You did it baby." Dragon said, as Mat rested back against him. "We have a son!" However, Mat didn't hear it as he had fallen asleep.

"Why don't you get him cleaned up Dragon? The shower and bath is right over there." Chastity pointed towards one of the doors. "Just remember, he's going to be in a bit of pain for a day or so, and then uncomfortable for a few days. His body isn't use to pushing out a baby, he's not like your parents."

"Got it." Dragon couldn't help the huge smile that spread across his face. He scooped Mat up into his arms, before carrying him to the bathroom and drawing a bath with a few potions Draco had given him a few weeks prior. He carefully took Mat's clothes off as not to let Mat wake. He stripped off his own clothes before getting into the bath with Mat so he could hold him above the water easier.

He tenderly started washing Mat's body off, before washing his hair carefully. He let Mat soak for a little while so that the potions could work better. Once he was satisfied, Dragon dried Mat off, before putting him in a pair of his sweat pants and a t-shirt. Dragon gently placed Mat back in the clean hospital bed.

"Here Dragon." Chastity said, holding out the baby. "He is so adorable."

"Thanks." Dragon said, looking down at his son for the first time. "He is the spitting image of Mat." Dragon said, looking between the two sleeping forms.
