Chapter 7

"Umm, Harry, you just kissed me, you know that, right?" Draco said, shock still evident in his voice.

"Yes, Draco, I know I kissed you," Harry said with a grin on his face. "I have come to a decision that I think you'll approve of as well." The grin had changed into a shy smile.

"And what is this decision you've come to Harry? I'll approve of just about anything you do as long as I am part of it," Draco said softly, trying to get the other boy to tell him what was going on in his head without frightening him away.

Sirius was watching with amusement evident in his eyes. He didn't say anything. He knew Harry was very comfortable around him. Draco, on the other hand, he didn't care if the young man was comfortable around Sirius or not, so long as he was good to Harry, which being part-Veela, he couldn't be anything but good to him, as well as for him, at this point. He had a feeling he knew what Harry had decided, but had to wait for him to verbalize it.

"Well, remember earlier you told Siri that we were friends?" Draco nodded; it wasn't that long ago, of course he remembered. Harry started to blush furiously with his next revelation. "Well I was thinking that maybe we could move it up a notch. I mean, since last year I've thought you were attractive." Harry looked down, embarrassed by what he was saying, especially in front of his godfather. Sirius, on the other hand, was grinning like a maniac. "I didn't think you'd mind too much to step up to 'boyfriends' now," Harry still didn't look up to meet the eyes' of either Draco or Sirius, and he was speaking so quietly that almost no one heard him. He was so red now from embarrassment that even the tips of his ears had turned into a lovely shade of red.

Harry suddenly felt a finger under his chin and let it guide him to look into Draco's eyes. Draco's eyes were wet with tears of joy. Seeing the pure happiness in Draco's eyes, the red all over Harry lessened, and he smiled shyly at Draco.

"Are you sure, Harry? If it's too soon, you don't have to yet." Harry's features softened when he heard what Draco had to say about his revelation.

"I don't think it's too soon. I'm not saying let's go shag right now or anything like that. I'm not ready for anything like that yet, but some kissing wouldn't go amiss." Draco pulled Harry into a tight embrace, nuzzling the side of his neck.

"Oh Harry, thank you so much. You've just made me so happy; I can't tell you just what this actually means to me," Draco whispered in Harry's ear. The Gryffindor smiled. As they released each other, Draco pressed his lips on Harry cheek, causing the boy to blush wildly, and causing Harry to smile shyly at Draco. Draco smiled coyly at Harry when he noticed the rising blush. Sirius snorted, causing both to look at him; he was trying his best to keep from laughing at the two of them.

"And just what is so funny, Mr. Padfoot?" Harry asked when he straightened up, glaring menacingly at the man.

"Bambi, it's just so cute to see you two together like that. Malfoy here isn't acting like a Malfoy; it's just funny." Wiping tears of mirth from his eyes, he held his hands up in a neutral position, showing he meant no harm. "I'm sure that if you watched the same thing you'd be laughing too. It's not a bad thing I promise you, Bambi." Sirius ended somewhat seriously.

Draco stood up quickly. "OK, no interruptions this time. What's this Bambi business?" Harry and Sirius smiled at each other, lightly snickering at the memories of how he came into this name.

"OK, Draco," Harry started, smirking at the confused look on the blonde's face. "My father was Sirius' best friend; obviously, that's why he's my godfather. What a lot of people don't know is that Siri, my dad, and Wormtail are all unregistered animagus." Grinning wickedly, Harry about laughed outright when he noticed the look on Draco's face. "Siri, here, you've seen is a big grim looking dog; Wormtail, is a rat. My father, however, was a Stag; his nickname was Prongs." Taking a breath, Harry ran his hands through his hair, keeping eye contact with Draco as he told his story. "As anyone knows, a baby stag is a fawn, or commonly known as a baby deer. Now, there is a muggle movie about a baby deer called "Bambi", and it just kind of stuck because my mother loved the movie. So Siri and Remmy both call me Bambi. Oh," grinning in apology for leaving Remus out, Harry said, "Remmy is Professor Lupin; his nickname is Moony because he's a werewolf. They were once known as the Marauder's." Draco's eyes widened at the mention of the Marauder's, his jaw about scraping on the floor.

"The Marauder's? As in the Weasley twins idols?" Both Harry and Sirius smiled and nodded. "Sweet, merciful Merlin! Do I need to watch my back for jokes from you?" Draco asked pointedly to Sirius, praying that the man would not pull pranks on him; he would retaliate.

"Not unless you start it, but maybe some fun wouldn't be amiss. But don't worry, most of my pranks will be directed towards another Slytherin." Sirius got up, grabbing parchment, a quill, and a container of ink from Harry's desk in his room. "Harry, I'm going to take these to my room, all right?" At Harry's nod, Sirius went over to him, kissed him on the forehead, bade them both good night, and left for his rooms.

Once Harry and Draco were alone, Draco thought it was time for him to answer his father's letter. He went to his room, retreiving a quill, an ink well, and parchment, making his way back, and sat on the floor in front of the coffee table right beside Harry's legs. He got his ink pot ready, dipping his quill in, and began penning his letter to his family. Harry leaned over Draco's shoulder to watch and read what he wrote.

'Dear Father,

As you have already stated in your previous letter, I came into my inheritance yesterday. Pardon the lateness of this letter, but it has been a busy day. Anyway, I am sure your dying to know whom my chosen is. I can tell you now you're not going to be happy with whom it is, and Mother, as always, will be indifferent. My chosen is Harry Potter. That said, you know as well as I do that if you try to harm him in any way, you'll pay dearly. You WILL NOT touch him if I can help it. He is coming around with the situation and handling it much better then any of us could have expected. I will be spending the summer here at Hogwarts with Harry. I seriously doubt he'd feel anywhere near comfortable at the Manor with you, taking your past relationship into consideration.

I would appreciate it if you'd pass on this information to mother. Never fear father, for Harry and I do want children; the Malfoy line will continue after me, but how many remains to be seen. That's all the information I will share with you at the moment, feel free to owl again. As I said before, I know you're not thrilled with my chosen, but as you also know, I don't have any control in it either. I will speak with you soon.

Your Heir,

Draco'

"Well what do you think, Harry?" Draco asked, while turning his head to look at his new boyfriend.

"Well, other then it being cold, it looks fine," Harry said while wrinkling his nose in disdain of how the letter was worded. He hated cold letters, but also knew it was part of being a 'Malfoy'.

"As you know, Malfoy's are cold creatures, always have been, you'll get used to it. And I'll never be cold to you, just as my mother is never cold to my father. It's the nature of the Veela." Smiling at the boy, Harry realized that everything Malfoy said was the truth, putting him at ease with his soon-to-be mate's way of acting.

"OK, you go send that off, and I'll go shower and start on my homework. I don't want to get too far behind; I haven't been to classes in two days, and Hermione is likely to crucify me if I get much further behind." Harry then got up and offered his hand to Draco to help him get up as well. Draco took the offered hand and was pulled up. Looking down into Harry eyes, Draco leaned down and pressed a gently soft kiss on Harry's lips. When they broke apart, Harry smiled somewhat dazed at Draco and said, "You know, it's nice when you kiss me like that when you're not trying to break a train of thought." Then Harry slowly backed away from Draco to retreat into his room to retrieve his things for his shower.

Draco was smiling wildly as he watched his boyfriend go into his room. He was glad that Harry had accepted their inevitable life so quickly. It would make things go so much easier that way. After Harry entered his room, Draco departed and went to the owlery. He had a letter to send, and only wished he could see the look on his father's face when he found out whom he had chosen as his mate.
