Brief explanation (or 'what is going on'):

- During their 5th year, Harry and Draco managed to work things out between them and started dating in secrecy. Things got intense real fast and they decided to bond (I know, fast and unwise, but they are 15 and in love, give me a break)
- In April (end of the month), Harry gets pregnant by natural means, which is possible but rare and demands lots of magical power, otherwise you depend on potions AND spells performed by a group of trained med-wizards.
- Middle of May, Ginny's body is found and Harry is sent to Azkaban.
- End of June, Harry's innocence is proved and he is released – not a public fact.

Chapter 03

Harry was still confused, not as much as he had been for the past… he had no idea how long, but still, things were slowly getting clearer everyday. This morning he was almost certain he was very near of being his normal self again. Now he wasn't so sure.

Some time ago he had 'regained consciousness' in a small cell in Azkaban, or had come back to his senses since he had never really passed out, he wasn't exactly sure, he could still feel the dementors but they seemed to keep their distance what minimized their effect on him. The cell itself was another thing that caught his attention. It was far better than the first cell he had been put in. It was still small and almost bare, but it was clean and had a window so now he had fresh air and sunshine (well, sunlight anyway). The food also improved for some reason and now he had a real blanket to cover himself at night. Maybe that was the standard treatment for prisoners before their trial and for some reason he hadn't received it when he first came to the island? Did that mean that he would finally get a trial?

His suspicions seemed to be confirmed when two aurors he had never seen before came to collect him and took him to the ministry. It was about time too, for some reason his health seemed to be deteriorating fast even in the better cell, he got sick every morning and was tired all the time.

Once they were at the ministry, however, everything got confused again. Draco was there and so was Lucius and there were lots of other people and they all talked, voices coming from different directions, lights, smells… Harry was having a difficult time concentrating for more than a few seconds but apparently he was considered innocent, Draco hugged him and Lucius was nice to him before they all went to Malfoy Manor where a nice Narcissa Malfoy bid him welcome… maybe he was completely crazy now.

He fainted at Narcissa's feet.

Harry slowly came back from oblivion, his body was warm and comfortable making him feel better than he had felt in a long time, making him fight as hard as he could to remain in the blessed dream state he found himself. Bit by bit reality made its way inside Harry's warm cocoon and he sighed, his nightmare was about to begin again but then he heard something he couldn't possible explain unless he was crazy. He could hear Draco's voice and at least two other male voices.

"It's a dream, I'm not out, I'm in Azkaban. Oh! Gods, At least Lucius doesn't know."

"He is so pale. Why is he still out?" He could hear Draco saying, his heart was heavy just remembering how long had it been since he saw his beloved. A warm hand found its way into Harry's and soft lips pressed themselves against Harry's skin. Draco.

Harry opened his eyes unable to resist any longer.

Draco was sitting by his side in a bed, paying attention to a large brown haired man standing by… Snape? Harry felt dizzy again and closed his eyes, listening carefully to what was being said.

"He is still under the influence of the dementors, but its not a permanent condition. He will gradually come out of it in the next few days." The man was saying.

"Dementors? But I thought he was placed way from them when…" Draco started but Snape cut in.

"And he was! Draco, he was, but you have to remember that by the time that happened he had been exposed for almost two months already and was never treated for it, add to this his present medical condition and I'm sure you can imagine how long will it take for him to fully recover."

"Medical condition, I have a medical condition, what is he talking about? " Harry puzzled.

"Well," the stranger was saying, "from what I can tell he is as good as can be expected. Right now he needs rest more than anything else. When he awakes he will need light food and a bit of chocolate, I suggest a cup of hot chocolate, it will have the desired effect without overcharging his stomach. After that he will need to take it easy for a bit, lots of rest and sunshine, don't let him get too upset. Chocolate is ok but don't over do it, his condition does inspire attention after all. No flying, no apparating and, if possible, no floo and no portkey from now on. His magic will be a bit out of control, he should take easy on that too… well, I think my work here is done, I shall leave you," the voices moved away from the bed and Harry could hear a few more words just before a door closed, "Make sure he takes all his potions at the appropriate time, you are very fortunate to have Master Snape with you. His potions are always…"

Harry carefully opened his eyes again, he was alone in the bedroom. He took the opportunity to look around.

He was in a large soft and warm bed in a large bedroom. His vision was still blurry but he could tell everything was in tons of blue and cream, and judging by the shifting light, two large windows were open to let natural light filter in through thin white curtains, heavier ones in blue and cream were open and tied to the sides of the windows.

Maybe he could get out that way. If the windows were not locked he could sneak out after nightfall. He would still be unable to see anything without his glasses, but hopefully his captors wouldn't be able to see him either.

Lost in his thoughts Harry didn't hear a door opening and closing, or the foot steps approaching the bed until a voice sounded right next to him.

"Harry?" Harry spun his head around to find Draco standing by his side. His plans of escape were put aside as Draco pulled him in his arms and hugged him for dear life.

"Merlin, I thought I had lost you" Draco whispered.

"I knew for a fact I had lost you when they sent me to that place. Draco, I'm so scared, what is going on? What happened to your father? Why I'm here? How did I came to be here?" Harry asked not letting go of Draco for one second, afraid it was all a dream and his beloved would disappeared as soon as he let go.

"Wait, I asked for this before," said Draco pulling back a little, Harry felt glasses being placed on his face and sigh in relieve being able to see Draco clearly for the first time. It suddenly was too much for Harry and he couldn't hold the tears any longer. Draco held him while he cried.

"Harry, it's ok, I had to tell father about you in order to get you out of Azkaban. He accepts us. He is actually very happy for us and willing to help in anything we need." Draco said while planting small kisses all over Harry's face and neck.

"But why?"

"What do you mean why? You think he would let his grandchild be born in Azkaban if he could do anything about it?"

"Grandchild?" Harry blinked a few times, "What grandchild?"

"The one in here, love" answered Draco placing his hand at Harry's abdomen, "You are pregnant, Harry, we are going to have a child." Those were the last words Harry heard before fainting again, not hearing Draco screams for the doctor to return.

It took a few days for Harry to fully understand what had happened and to accept Lucius and Narcissa's friendship, not to mention the fact that he was indeed pregnant with his husband's child… They had to bring in Dr. Redwood, the brown haired stranger from the first day, one more time so that he could perform all the scan spells all over again to convince Harry.

One week after he was brought to the Manor Harry received the visit of Mme. Bones, who wished to make sure she had done the right thing by checking if he was being well treated. She was able to explain the legal aspects of Harry's situation a little better.

"Tell me again, Mme. Bones. Besides the revolution Draco here staged, what was done to get my situation sorted?" asked Harry looking the witch in the eyes.

"Well, dear," she started visibly uncomfortable, "I didn't really hear about any other efforts to bring the matter to justice."

"Nothing at all? What about the Weasleys? Dumbledore? Lupin?"

"Well…"
