Chapter 14: Mat's Plan

After the flush, Mat and Chastity spent the day calming Mat's stomach, while Dragon attended his class. "Chastity, can I ask you something? Other then what I am asking." Mat asked, sitting with his back against the bathroom wall.

"Better do it before the next attack." Chastity said, wiping Mat's forehead and face with a cool cloth.

"Melissa's baby, did anyone figure out what you are all going to do with him or her yet?" Mat asked, before getting sick again.

"It's going to be put up for adoption. Why are you so concerned about that? I thought you would hate Melissa for putting you through all of this." Chastity said, waiting for Mat to stop getting sick.

"I was wondering if you'd mind terribly if maybe I adopted the child. If I could talk to Melissa privately, on my own with out Dragon or anyone else knowing, about everything, that maybe she'll let me adopt the child. Maybe I could even convince Dragon to raise it with me, but if I don't, I still know I can take care of the child on my own. Please."

"I don't think that's such a good idea Mat. Dragon made it very clear he wanted nothing to do with Melissa's child when he kicked her out of the house, when he found out and just let her go. He won't like it."

"I don't care if he doesn't like it or not, but if Snape was willing to take in Cap, then why wouldn't Dragon want to do with same thing if the child is mine?"

"That was different Mat. Sirius wanted the child until he found out about my past, that's when he didn't want anything to do with me, but he wanted everything to do with his child. This isn't even Dragon's child it's someone elses. Severus cared for me and the child, he loved us both. Dragon doesn't love this child, it's a reminder that the one person he thought he loved and trusted didn't love and trust him back. It would be like if Dragon cheated on you with someone and was pregnant with someone elses child, and your new boyfriend wanted to adopt Dragon's child. Wouldn't that be just a little weird, it will always be a reminder to you that your first love never wanted you, that it was all a set up to get to your money, and they succeeded by having someone elses child and then having you adopt them."

"What if the baby goes to a bad family? What if the family only wants the child because of the Black fortune behind it, that isn't right."

"Yes I know, but there is nothing we can do."

"YES THERE IS! I'm talking to Melissa and that's final."

"I'd like to see you travel let alone walk to the fireplace to Floo to the reform school. Mat, youbarely walked the two feet from your bed to the bathroom before you were huffing and puffing, and shouldn't you talk to Dragon about this first?"

"Fine I will talk to Dragon about it first, okay? Is there anyway you could set up a private meeting between Daniel Zabini and me also? I have to ask him about something."

"Sure, tomorrow when you aren't using the toliet as a pillow. Until then, you should be calming down soon, you have nothing in your stomach." Mat nodded his head before getting sick again.

That night, Dragon came to visit Mat, who had finally, afterseven hours, had stopped getting sick. "Hey babe how are you feeling?"

"Better, though I am not going to eat in a million years. Dragon, about-"

"Don't."

"You don't even know what I was going to say."

"Chastity told me about your talk this afternoon. Just don't, I'm not ready to talk about it yet."

"Well we are sort of limited on the time we have with this issue don't you think."

"Fine you wanna talk about it, I'll talk about it. I am in my third year, I am fourteen years old, I am no more ready to be a father then you are! You are in your fourth year, you have O.W.L.s coming up, you are sixteen years old, do you really think you are old enough to raise a child? Do you really think that we as a new couple are mature and stable enough to raise a someone elses child. I mean seriously! Where do you get off wanting to adopt a child from a person who almost KILLED you! Not to mention the fact that I can not love a child that was made from infidelity! I will ALWAYS see Melissa in her child, this isn't about doing what's good and bad, it's about doing what is good for our relationship, as in you and me, not you, me, and someone elses chlid."

"Dragon this is NOT a discussion. I'm telling you exactly what I told Chastity, I will do this with or without you. Hate me all you want, leave me, but I am going to adopt Melissa's child, I will care for it, if you don't want to then you don't have to end of story, but I am going to. Now go away, I'm tired and you're just making me upset." Mat turned on his side, away from Dragon and closed his eyes. Dragon was stunned, never before had Mat ever yelled at him, ever! Dragon quickly left the room for his parents quarters and floo'd to the reform school Melissa was kept in.

"Mr. Malfoy, this is no place for you. Do your parents know you are here?" Marcus Flint asked, the head of the reform school.

"Does it look like I'm a spitting fuking image of my dad, what do you think? May I talk to Melissa Black?"

"No one except authorized personel and people on this list of approved visitors, and I'm sorry Mr. Malfoy your name isn't on it."

"Where's this list? How do I know you are not lieing?"

"I've known your father for years Dragon, do you really think I'm going to fall for that one? The moment I pull out the list you will add your name in there, I'm not stupid."

"Look, she is my ex-fiancee now let me the fuck in, before I curse you to hell and back."

"Not that I'm afraid of you or anything, but you are Harry Potter's son, I'll just go in there with you."

"Fine. Now, open the door!" Dragon walked into the classroom and up to the teacher. Melissa's eyes got huge and she stood up.

"What in Merlins bloody name are you doing here?" Melissa asked, walking up to the front.

"We need to have a discussion, hallway now." Dragon commanded.

"You aren't commanding me Dragon! You might be the future Malfoy heir, but you are far from being head of the family yet."

"I'm promised to Mat, therefore I'm in practice. Get." Dragon grabbed Melissa's arm and pulled her into the hallway.

"The Potter promise ring still doesn't give you the authority to boss people around the Malfoy way! However, now that you have me here, what do you want?" Dragon raised his ring finger, and showed her the Malfoy promise ring. "Hell no! You are against those you told me yourself."

"Mat and I are genuine soul mates, therefore I have no problem using the Malfoy promise rings. Now, about your unborn child, how far along are you, honestly Mel." Dragon said, calming down a bit. He knew if he kept yelling all hell would break loose.

"Four months." Melissa said, taking the glamour off.

"So I'm giving you two months to decide, the adults are leaning towards letting some unknown family some where adopt your child, since no one wants to take it in because of how you acted. However, Mat and I," Dragon said harshly. "Would be more then happy to adopt your child and care for it as our own. The final decision I'm leaving up to you, screw what Dumbledore said about you not being able to decide what's right for your child. This is the only decision you will have concerning your child."

"Does Mat know you want to adopt my child. I think he'd find it hilarious."

"It was his idea, do you really think I would take the child in ."

"So what do you get out of it? He gets the child what would he give you?"

"He'd stop being mad at me.Taking your child in seems to be a big deal to him, why I have no clue but it does. I care for him so this is a big deal for me as well."

"Aww how sweet. However, you left me for him so I don't think you're the right person to raise my child."

"Exactly what I said, but this is important to him Melissa. If you think hard enough, you told us you were pregnant three months ago, Mat and I have been a couple for three months, and you are four months pregnant which means you cheated on me a month before I met Mat, which means you cheated and left the relationship first. You gave up on us first, therefore, you can not blame me for being the first to leave, cause you did it a month before me. Do you really want your child to go to a home that might have two Dark Arts supporters? Was I really that bad of a boyfriend that you can't even trust me with your child, the child that should have been ours? Do you really think that badly of me? Of Mat? You attempted to kill him, but he still can't hate you for it. He still thinks some where deep inside that heart of yours there is good, I don't know if I believe him or not, but he's certain about it."

"Why don't you believe him or not?"

"Because you've manipulated me since the beginning, if I didn't know any better, I'd say you were working with Kelly and Lucius that day. Only to have the plan backfire in your face, and you end up dead. You admitted that having my child was a plan to get the Malfoy fortune. You never loved me, you faked it, and because of that I don't know if there is good in you Melissa Black, the one exception is that child you are carrying. Think it over and get back to me." Dragon went to walk away with Marcus.

"Dragon wait!" Melissa called out, running after them. "Don't doubt yourself, you were one of the best boyfriends I've had, and no matter what your past, you will make a wonderful father. Congratulations." Melissa said, before going back into the classroom. Dragon smiled after her, before walking over to the fire place.

"I won't tell your parents this time, since your obviously going to have to confess yourself, but next time I will have to inform your dad." Marcus said, smilling at him.

"Thank you. You should stop by the manor some time, I mean Draco's in Azkban right now, but Harry might enjoy seeing you."

"What do you mean Drake's in Azzie?" Marcus asked, stopping dead.

"You didn't know? Yes Draco's in Azkaban for child abuse and molestation. I thought you knew."

"Who'd he abuse? Certainly not you." Marcus said, bending down to Dragon's height.

"Of course it was me! Who else would he abuse?" Dragon asked, getting a little upset.

"It's just shocking, I'd see him all the time at Blaise's manor, and Vincent's Villa and he'd be bragging about how happy he was to have a son, that he couldn't wait to teach you Quidditch, see you get married and have children. To see you off to Hogwarts, and that he couldn't wait until you got your first cut so he could kiss it better. We all thought he was a sap, the last time I saw him was the beginningof last year when you were in Azkaban for lieing, said he couldn't have been more upset about it. Broke down cryin he did, thinking you didn't love him. Didn't know what he did to make you lie so badly and get him sent there. Afraid he turned out to be a bad father. Just sort of a shock I guess, one minute he loves you to death and the next he'd go and hit you. Doesn't sound like him, not at all." Marcus got up and handed the pot of Floo powder to Dragon. "Better get going before they notice your missing. I don't want your dad mad at me for helping you see Melissa." Dragon just looked confused before he stepped into the fireplace and went back to Hogwarts. He went back into the infirmary, and Mat ran up to him.

"Look! Look at what Severus' potion did!" Mat said, jumping up and down.

"You can run! You can breath correctly!" Dragon said, looking at Mat. He hugged and kissed him before sitting down on one of the infirmary beds.

"What's wrong?" Mat asked, sitting down. The Malfoy ring telling him that something was wrong with Dragon.

"You set me up didn't you?" Dragon asked turning towards him. "You knew that yelling at me would get me to talk to Melissa."

"Yes I did, but I did it because you needed to reassure yourself about what type of boyfriend you were, you both needed to get over what happened and move on. What happened happened, and I knew that you would sulk around for months after Melissa's death wondering what you could have done to change it, and the answer is nothing. You couldn't do a thing to change it, but raising her child helps her to live through her child. Melissa might die, but the memory of her, of what she stood for, will never fade. Making sure that child knows their mother, something only you can do, will help you learn that Melissa, though she had bad tendancies, will never be a bad person."

"Did I mention how much I love you?" Dragon said, pulling Mat into his lap and kissing him. "Congratulations, you'll be a father in five months." Dragon said agasint Mat's lips before kissing him again.

"Mat, after tonight, you'll be released from my care. However, I want to see you in two weeks to make sure everything is okay, and if anything starts to happen something starts hurting, you can't breath properly, you're naucious I want you to get me immediately. Promise?"

"Promise."

"Good, now these just came for you two. It's from the reform school, and it was sent by theDeputy Minister of Magic. Something you two are hiding from the Minister...Your Parents maybe?"

"We are adopting Melissa's child."

"Shouldn't you talk to your parents about it first? Since you both are underage, you will need a parents signature."

"You know, this is like impossible! First I had to convince Melissa, then I had to convince myself, now I have to convince Dad and Oliver. This isreally starting to become annoying."

"About that, maybe you should confront Draco about it first."

"What is everyone's fascination with Draco? First Marcus, then you. My father is not THAT amazing, and he's in AZKABAN! How great would it be to ask him for advice...Oh yeah Draco, I'm thinking about adopting a child, have any advice? Oh back handing them works wonders hmm, let me try that out one day! That conversation will go extremely well huh!"

"Babe calm down. Just promise me you will not talk to Oliver, you will not talk to Harry in front of Oliver."

"What do you have against Oliver?" Dragon asked, turning towards Mat.

"I can't tell you right now, can you just trust me." Mat turned to look at Dragon, worry evident on his face.

"Fine. I'll see what I can do."

"Thank you. I'm a little tired, I'm going to take a nap." Mat went back over to his bed and laid down. Dragon kissed his forehead, before going to find Harry. Michael snuck into the room a few minutes after Chastity left.

"Help up!" Michael said, putting his arms up. Mat turned over and helped Michael up.

"Have a plan yet?" Mat asked, looking at Michael.

"No. It hard. " Michael said, letting his head drop to the pillow.

"Ok you two, start talking. Maybe I can help, and you little one aren't suppose to be wondering the castle alone." Chastity said, tickling Michael. Mat explained the situation, and Chastity started to become serious.

"Are you two positive it'sOliver and Vincent? Like one hundred and ten percent positive?"

"Yes. You no trust me?" Michael said, looking Chastity in the eye.

"Of course I trust you..Both of you. It's just we can not keep putting Harry through this, and we have to be careful, Oliver is obviously dangerous."

"So you'll help us?" Mat asked, looking at Chastity.

"I have no choice now do I? It's either let you to do it and be killed, or help you and wait for Harry to blow."

Mat and Chastity secretly portkeyed to Azkaban that night. "Mrs. Snape, how may I be of service?" One of the guards asked.

"We'd like to confidentally see Mr. Malfoy." Chastity put the portkey in her pocket and followed the guard to Draco's cell.

"Is he crying?" Mat asked, hearing sobs echo down the hallway.

"He's unguarded is the major issue. Why is he unguarded?" Chastity asked, turning towards the guard.

"He has a guest. If you two could stand in the shadow right here. I'll see if they're done."

"Will we be able to see them?" Mat asked, hiding in the shadows with Chastity.

"We should." Chastity kept her eyes trained on the door, out walked Oliver Wood a couple minutes later. Once they were sure he was out of eye sight, they entered the room.

"You have an hour, then visitor hours are over with until tomorrow."

"Thank you." Chastity said, waiting for him to leave the room. "Draco what happened? Why are you crying?"

"He's a bastard! What Harry sees in him is beyond me! How dare he say those things."

"Say what Draco?" Chastity sat down next to him, wrapping her arms around him.

"How he pounds Harry into the matress every night. How good it felt to fuck and slap my son, and how Vince got a piece of him too. How I'm stuck in here helpless and he can turn into me and attack my children at anytime. He's in here everyday talking about stuff like that."

"Mr. Malfoy, we never met properly. I'm Mat Mcguire, I promise that nothing will happen to your children, to Harry."

" Thank you Mat. May I ask how you know my family?" Draco asked, drying his eyes on the back of his hand.

"I'm Dragon's boyfriend..um, fiance in training maybe. I don't know what you'd call me." Mat held up his hand to show Draco the family promise ring.

"Husband in traning, congratulations."

"Thanks Mr. Malfoy."

"Please, call me father, you will be my son-in-law. Well, hopefully. Not to sound mean, but what happened to him being engaged to Melissa?"

"Long story, let's say, Mel's preggers, and Dragon's gay. Draco if you know you're innocent, then why are you still in here?"

"I have to be! He'll kill them all if I don't cooperate. If Harry and the kids died because of me I'd never ever be able to live with myself. Plus, Harry is obviously happy with Oliver, if half of the things he tells me are true."

"Look, we need to get you out of here, we don't have a plan though. You know what's going on better then we do please help us help you, Harry, and the rest of your family." Draco then went in an emotional explanation of what Oliver was planning.

"Har, what are you doing? " Oliver asked, walking into the room. Harry picked the papers up off the desk shuffeling them together, the divorce papers filed in between them.

"Going over some student essays. So far they're really interesting. Where were you last night? I woke up to Rupert crying, and noticed you were gone."

"I feel asleep in the Infirmary with Dragon. Poor guy, still feels like it's his fault."

"Dragon feel asleep in the twins room and was still there when I checked Rup. Want to try again Oliver? Where were you?" Harry asked, standing up and facing Oliver. Oliver walked up to Harry, circling his arms around Harry's waist. Harry backed up a little, then tensed as Oliver picked up the papers off of the desk.

"Why so tense Harry? They're just student essays right?" Oliver said, flipping through the papers, Harry's shock kept him frozen in place. "What's this? Divorce papers signed by Draconis Lucius Malfoy and Harry James Potter. Now why would you be reviewing these? I thought I told you quite clearly what was in them when I got them for you. Your lawyer and I thought this the best possible agreement. Oh, I see, you forgot to inital it, were you about to do that? Should I leave?" Oliver asked, placing the papers on the desk.

"Actually, I'm having second thoughts of signing these until after Draco's trial. That's right I pushed for a trial I just can't put a man in prison until I'm positive." Harry said, snatching the paper out of Oliver's hand.

"Harry, this is not what we want. I thought we agreed against a trial." Oliver's voice sounded very cold.

"No you agreed not to have a trail, I wasn't part of the discussion. Oliver this is MY life, this is my husband, and it involves my children! Therefore back off."

"How dare you speak to me that way!" Oliver said, punching Harry.

"You lay one more hand on him and I swear to Merlin you'll be in Azkaban faster then you can say Quidditch." Severus said, binding Oliver. Chastity ran over to Harry.

"Oh Merlin, I am so sorry for not getting here on time. I'm so sorry." Chastity healed the bruises so that Dragon wouldn't see them, and craddled a crying Harry in her arms while Severus moved the bound Oliver to the dungeons.
