Answers to questions, etc.:
Yes Draco is now a woman. He was so intent on being with Harry that he forgot to note the fact that the charm he used to change himself doesn't respond to any known counter charm. And he failed to take precautions that he should have, so he's not only stuck forever as a woman but he's expecting a baby too. Poor Draco.
Actually the idea of making Draco female isn't original with me. I've read several fan fics here that have him either becoming female or having Harry's child, though the idea of it being a charm with no counter is my original idea.
Cliched? Maybe a bit, but I wanted to write a sweet romance rather than just have Draco and Harry fooling around a bit. Hope everyone is enjoying the story so far. I don't know how many chapters it will be in the end, but so far it's been fun to write it.

Chapter 6: The Cottage

Draco sighed in relief. His back and ankles had been killing him. As soon as they'd got on the bus Ron had led him over to a day bed. It was odd the way things turned out sometimes. He could still remember the time when Ron had tried to curse him and his wand backfired. Ron had spent the day throwing up slugs. Looking back Draco had to admit that he'd have deserved it if the spell had worked. What a nasty, malicious, little snot he'd been back then. He must have dozed because the next thing he knew someone was shaking him and calling his name.

"Draco, Draco."

"Hmmm," he opened his eyes expecting to see Harry, but it was Ron that was rousing him.

"I hated to disturb your rest mate, but we've arrived at your home."

For a minute Draco thought Ron meant the manor, then he remembered. They must have reached the cottage. After dis-embarking Ron first levitated Draco's packages in through the kitchen window then turned to help Draco down the stairs.

5 minutes later they were sitting in front of the fire sipping cups of hot tea that Winky had prepared.

"So what were you doing in Diagon Alley today Ron?"

"Well actually I was looking for an engagement ring."

"An engagement ring huh. For anyone I know?"

Ron blushed. Well everyone would find out soon enough anyway so why not tell Draco. "It's for Hermione."

"I see. Well I can't say I'm surprised. You two have been hanging round together ever since first year at school. Congragulations."

"Thanks, actually I haven't asked her yet, but I wanted to get an idea of what rings cost, so.."

"So you were doing a bit of window shopping, huh?"

"Well, yeah, I guess so."

"Here's hoping she's smart enough to accept your proposal Ron," with that toast Draco finished his cup of tea.

Ron had wanted to stay til Harry got home, but finally he'd left after making him promise to contact him at the burrow if he needed anything.

Draco was feeling tired so he decided to take a nap. Entering the bed room he lay down on the bed and snuggled up to Harry's pillow, breathed in the scent of his beloved and slowly drifted off into sleep.
