No Day But Today Drabbles

Summary: As the title may suggest, these are drabbles for my story No Day But Today. Technically they can be read alone, but I wouldn't recommend it; full understanding requires reading the story. HP/DM slash. Implied mpreg. Non-magic AU.

Author's Note: 'ello darlin's. How are we this fine, fine morning? Cause it is morning for me, nearing the three o'clock hour but morning nonetheless. After this I'm going to snuggle with my cell phone and read fan fiction until the screen starts to hurt my eyes. The Happiest of Halloweens I wish you all and I kinda wish I could do something scary for a drabble but I'm completely drawing a blank. Likely I'll figure out something really good come, like, Valentines…

On that note, this is a drabble requested Gemstones. I thought it was funny because I knew exactly who would the subject of Draco's ire in this one ^_^. After this I have…six more request to finish up, four of which are from the same person (you know who you are…). So, if you want to keep the ball rolling, make request! I have my own drabbles in mind of course, but I'm not nearly as excited about them as I seem to be about ya'll.

This takes place pretty early on I think. After the end of the story but before the epilogue.

Note: Feel free to request drabbles (any time frame - past/present/future). I'll need a prompt or a title.

Draco tried not to scowl at the scene in front of him but it was getting increasingly difficult the longer this farce of a conversation lasted. Who did he think he was? Harry was taken, quite obviously, but this interloping, smiling, and charmingly disgusting ass-hole didn't seem to take that into account. And Harry was falling for this nonsense! Couldn't he see how he was being stared at? How eyes lingered too long and smiles were too soft and words were too nauseatingly bright?

"Oh, Adrian…"

"I know… silly, but I just want…"

"… not too silly…may be…sweet…I've ever heard."

Draco gritted his teeth. And just what the hell were they whispering about?

Furious but resigned to wait this out, Draco stayed silent as Harry conversed quietly with Cailean's babysitter. The little boy himself was held in Harry's arms, head tucked under the teen's chin and showing no signs of caring about the conversation. Draco wished he could be that at ease. His fist were clenching and unclenching unconsciously as Adrian blushed bashfully and Harry spared him the beatific smile that Draco knew was usually reserved for him. Well him and Cailean and Mr. Snape, and maybe to a lesser extent their small group of friends. A group that, last he checked, did not include Adrian Pucey, the brown-noser.

The conversation lasted only a few minutes longer and Draco smiled smugly when Cailean whined in his almost asleep state and Harry's attention was instantly diverted. "I should put him down for his nap," Harry muttered absently and Draco was up in a flash.

"You do that love, I'll see Adrian out," he smiled and Harry sent him a fond look.

"Thank you, Draco," he said quirking his lips. "Thanks again for today, Adrian."

"No problem at all, Harry," the older man waved the thanks aside and Draco's smile fought hard not to falter. Harry hummed quietly to Cailean as he left the room and Draco rounded on the other as soon as he heard his boyfriends steps echo up the stairs.

"I don't know what you think you're doing, but this ends right here," he hissed. Adrian's hazel eyes widened and he blinked rapidly in surprise.

"What-"

"You may have Harry, fooled, he's not nearly so perceptive as he'd like to think. He doesn't see the way people stare at him, flirt with him but I will not let it happen while I'm around, especially not in his own house."

Adrian open his mouth to defend himself, the bastard, but Draco cut him off, grabbing an arm and man handling the older male to the door. Adrian followed along easily, still acting bewildered. "You have a lot of nerve, I'll give you that," the blond said snidely, his voice lowered as they entered the hallway. "You watch his kid for gods sake, I bet you thought 'single father, easy pickings' but let me make this perfectly clear-" Draco snatched open the front door and all but forced Adrian out onto the front walk. "Harry is mine, Cailean is mine and if I ever catch you trying to chat him up again I. Will. End. You. I'll put up with your being here only for their sake because you're the only sitter Harry trusts with his son and Cailean even likes you. But I don't." Draco sneered and Adrian took a step back. Cold grey eyes narrowed in satisfaction at the shock on the face in front of him.

"If you say anything about this to Harry or do not continue to treat Cailean in the utmost loving fashion, I promise, they won't find the body." With a heart full of satisfaction and a mental pat on the back Draco slammed the door in Adrian's stunned face.

"Why did you slam the door?" Harry asked curiously as he started down the steps. Draco turned to him with a tender smile and a half shrug.

"Sorry," he said, bending his head in sheepishness. "Wasn't paying attention."

Harry rolled his eyes but entwined his fingers with Draco's when he reached the bottom of the stairs. "Adrian's gone?" he asked, double checking and Draco nodded with a easy smile. A mischievous look lit up Harry's eyes.

"Guess what he told me," he prompted with no little bit of amusement. Draco glanced at him curiously.

"What?"

"I asked him why he was doing all these extra hours for us lately," Harry said pulling Draco down on the sofa next to him when the reentered the sitting room. "He was so embarrassed-Draco, he's planning on asking his girl friend to marry him next year, he's been saving up for a ring. Apparently the 'perfect one' is ridiculously expensive but he's determined. I told him that the price may be silly but the idea was sweet." Harry's face was flushed a bit with excitement for his friend. "You'll have to remind me to get them a gift, you're better at that sort of thing."

Draco laughed and if it sounded a little strained Harry didn't mention it. "Of course," he grinned, inwardly groaning. "I'll think of something great, Adrian deserves the best."

A/N: No, he never apologizes but that gift is extravagant ^_^.
