Part 7 Reunited.
Hiya guys! Thank you all for still being with me. This chapter is just getting me back to writing and all our guys back together, so this chapter isn't going to be very long but it will get everyone back on the same time line rather than have six storyline running at the same time which melted my mind and was probably a bit confusing to read, but it was necessary.
So without any more chatter from me, on with the story.
(Added. Wow after a week of trying let's hope this works.)
Ron led the way to the kitchens arm in arm with Hermione leaving Harry and Draco to walk behind them.
"I wanted to tell you I'm sorry for how I acted." Draco said formally.
"Which time?" Harry teased.
Draco snorted and managed a grin. "In potions class. With your book."
"Don't worry about it. You're a dick sometimes, but I can live with it."
That made Draco laugh loudly. "Considering I'm courting two men now you're well within your rights to kick my arse."
"Don't worry so much, I'm guessing that you thought your dad wouldn't love you anymore if he found out you were gay or something along those lines." Harry guessed slowing down so that they were further away from the others. "Or the other Slytherin's?"
"Pretty much," Draco agreed with a shrug. "But apparently it's not actually a problem with my dad."
Harry burst out laughing. "Yeah, you totally called that wrong."
Draco shoved him. "Give me a break, my father was married to my mother and had me. What about that screams gay?"
"Fair enough. I'll let you off that one. So how are you coping?"
"It's happening to you to, shouldn't I be asking you that question?" Draco countered.
"Yeah but in all fairness, it's not as bad for me. I already thought of Ron and Hermione as my brother and sister now it's just official. You were a bit of a shock but I always wanted a big family so I'm not complaining."
"And you're dating a man who's the same age as your parents." Draco added.
"Well that too. But I'm used to weird shit happening to me. You found out your mum is a bitch your dad is gay and in love with someone you've been told to hate all your life, and your dating the twins who are the kids of your almost step dad and the brothers of one of your new brothers. Fuck that sounds even more complicated when you say it out loud."
They laughed together before Draco sobered. "Honestly, I'm trying not to think about it too much. Dad's happier than I think I've ever seen him, I like that. And I can hardly care that he's in love with a man when I'm dating two of them."
"You always were greedy." Harry agreed sagely. "Are you happy?" He asked dodging another shove from Draco.
"More than I think I ever have been."
"I'm glad to hear that little Dragon." Lucius said stepping from the shadows followed by a slightly misty eyed Arthur.
"Hi Lucius, Hi Arthur." Harry waved nervously.
"Harry I realize that as you so elegantly put it things are extremely confusing with all the different. I know you have considered Arthur a father figure, how would you feel about calling us both some variation on dad?" Lucius asked surprising the other three men.
"I'd like that." Harry said with a shy smile.
"Can I too?" Hermione asked coming back out from the kitchen portrait followed by Ron and two huge baskets presumably of food.
"Of course my dear." Lucius responded clearly taken off guard by the question.
"Great now we all have names can we eat?" Ron complained. "There's plenty of food and Harry missed the picnic so we're going outside."
They turned around and trooped outside Lucius with one arm around Draco. They stopped by the lake and spread out the blankets the kitchen had thoughtfully packed.
"Now all we need is Severus to magically appear." Harry said wistfully.
Arthur laughed. "Said just like a young man in love. Unfortunate you can't summon them out of thin air."
The knight bus arrival proved him wrong.
What do you think the reaction will be to a knight bus full of kids and animals? Come tell me on my facebook page.
