Hi everyone. Time for another chapter.
I don't own Harry Potter and co
CHAPTER THREE
A few weeks later Draco was walking in Diagon Alley when he felt like he was being watched. He had just come out of the medical potion's store to buy his prescribed potions and was making his way to Flourish and Blotts to by a few books on male pregnancy. He wanted to know how he would give birth. He knew that he had a few alternatives but he wanted to know which one was the safest for the baby. He also need to go to Madam Malkins to get some new robes his old ones were starting to get tight in the middle. He would need some maternity ones soon but he would get those in France where no one would recognize him. He was leaving for his Chateaux in four days. He couldn't wait. He wanted to leave London very badly. He kept on meeting fellow students in Diagon Alley and they kept on reminding him of his loss.
After he finished his shopping he noticed that he was still being followed. He turned around and looked but couldn't see anyone. He quickly made his way to the door to the muggle world. He got into his car still feeling like he was being followed. "Thank goodness I won't be returning here for a while.
The next four days passed quickly for Draco. He packed all the things he would need for his travel. He had planed to buy the baby's things once he was in France. He would live with his son at the 'Chateau des Anges'. He still chuckled at the thought that his family owned something called the Castle of Angels. He knew that it had been owed by the few Malfoys who were light wizards like himself. "Maybe that's why I feel so at home when I'm there. It's not as cold as Malfoy Manor. I think it will be a nice place to raise Evan.
Draco moved in to his French Chateau, He spent the months of his pregnancy traveling to his different estates. He had thirteen in all and decided to sell ten of them. He kept the Chateau in France, the penthouse in New York and the summer home in Bermuda. He decided to by a nice size flat in London for his trips when he would have to go back to England or when he wanted to visit Harry's grave. Everyone of his homes had a nursery that was next to his bedroom since he wanted to raise his son by himself without the help of nurses and nannies.
Draco spent a few weeks in London when he was about seven months pregnant. He used a glamour charm to hide his condition. He visited with his godfather and went to visit Harry's grave. He noticed some dead flowers on the site. He banished them and replaced them with fresh ones. Again he didn't notice the old man watching him. He looked at his crystal rose on top of the head stone. It still shone with the rays of the sun. It would be a constant reminder that their love had been pure and true. After all Draco had the proof of it by carrying their child.
On the seventh of February Draco gave birth to his son with the help of healer Johnston. After ten hours of labor the child was finally born. At six pounds seven ounces Evan was a healthy baby. He was also a very good baby not giving Draco too much trouble. Draco had been amazed at the sight of his new son. His hair was just as blond as his but it was messy like Harry's and the boy had Harry's green eyes. Draco laughed at seeing his son being a perfect mix of Harry and himself.
One night he was rocking Evan and started crying. "I just wish that Harry could see you. In three months it will be the first anniversary of his death. I'll bring you with me to see his grave. Your daddy was a hero, he was a great wizard. I hope you grow up to have a lot of his qualities. You might even be placed in Gryffindor when you go to school. You would be the first Malfoy to ever go into that house." Draco kept on rocking his son and talking about his daddy Harry. The young boy would grow up to know and love his other father.
On the day of the anniversary of Harry's death Draco made his way to the cemetery again. He was holding Evan who was now a very active four month old baby. Dressed in a light blue jumper and wearing a winter baby suit he was comfortable in his papa's arms. Draco sat down in front of the grave. Again he used wandless magic to conjure another white crystal rose. He saw a small glow coming form Evan and a small blue crystal rose appeared next to him. Draco was shocked that his son could perform magic at such a young age. Looking at the infant who was looking back with innocent green eyes Draco chuckled. "Well I guess I'm in for a few surprises from you, aren't I my little lion."
Draco cast a sticking charm on the two roses and placed them next to the first rose. He knew that the first rose with the blue one inside it represented himself when he had been pregnant. He smiled at his son. Draco talked to Harry's headstone for a while telling him just how much of a good baby their son was and that he would be a powerful wizard. "I promise you Harry, that I will teach him to use his powers for the good of wizard kind."
With a final goodbye, Draco got up and held Evan's hand against the stone. "Remember my son, that your daddy gave his life so you could have a peaceful one." Draco saw his son smile and he kissed the top of his head. "Come now we have to get back to France and get ready for our trip to Bermuda. I think we can do with a month in the sun."
After they left they didn't notice a lone figure making his way to the headstone where he touched the crystal roses. The man was puzzled why someone would place something so beautiful on his grave. He had not seen Draco and Evan who had left a few minutes before he got there. The man made his way to three other headstones. Two had the name of Potter on them and the third had the name of Black. Waving his hand he conjured three bouquet of roses. Then he turned around and gave one last puzzled look at his grave site and left.
