Chapter 20: Of Love and Heros
"Welcome to the intern tower Dragon." Julie said, sitting down on the couch in the common room. "We haven't talked since the train ride a while ago, how is everything?"
"Same old, same old. How are you? I haven't seen you in class."
"I'm great, but I help Chastity with the night shift."
"Ah, have you done your first thirty six hours?"
"Are you kidding? She wouldn't want us to do that." Julie asked shocked.
"Yeah huh, your first vacation you better pray you have somewhere to go, especially if you're the top of the class. Those in the top five intern at St. Mungos, your first shift is thiry six hours straight."
"UH! I give up! Julie, how do you deal with a patient that's just been bitten by a vampire?" One of the guys asked, running down the stairs. His paper scratched out and torn, and his book looking like he had accidentlythrown it into a fire.
"Restrain them, make sure the wounds healed, if not then you're going to use a complex healing charm to heal it. Hook them up tothree bags of animal blood. Wait until that night to explain everything on them, make sure you give them a free pass to the butcher's and send them on their way."
"Don't you mean human blood?" They both asked looking at Dragon.
"Well some do, but those that have started on animal blood, and know that it can be easily obtained usually tend to stay on it. It's something Chastity and I are trying out. Chastity started it a while ago, in secret of course, and she has a bunch of vampire's that are her friend today because of it. They aren't a major threat to humans, they just have to make sure they have human blood at least once a month, and they can usually come to the hospital or a blood bank and get it that way."
"Okay how the hell do you know all this?" Julie asked.
"I think we should test him. He couldn't have remembered everything."
"Go on Brendan, try me."
"Have you seen Chastity any time this morning?"
"Nope, why?" The two got a look in their eyes.
"Well, she changed the coding. Let's see, what's GSW?"
"Muggle or wizard?"
"Both." Brendan said, really wanting to see if Dragon was as good as he claimed to be.
"Gun shot wound, Gash from Small Wand."
"GLA."
"Non Muggle, Grindylow Attack."
"MTA."
"Medical Testing Assitant, Medical Testing Assesment...Mountain Troll Attack.
"How the hell did you remember these already? She just changed them last night."
"She also sent the book around to everyone this morning, so I read through it at breakfast."
"Yeah, like any of us have a chance now at getting a spot in St. Mungos if there's only one left." Brendan said, slouching in his seat.
"What? I'm not even positive I WANT to go to St. Mungos."
"I just want to know how the hell you got so smart." Julie said, looking over her paper.
"Oh, so I was idiotic before! Yeah, you two are definitely doing your own homework." Dragon said, before leaving the tower.

"Okay, where am I?" Someone asked, looking around the dungeon. "This looks way too familiar." A gasp came from behind him and he turned around just in time to run into Elizabeth. "Who are you?"
"I Elizabeth Potter-Malfoy. You Edric Iggory, You at Ogwarts."
"I thought this place looked familiar. Aren't you a bit young to be at Hogwarts?"
"No, daddy and dad are professsors." She said, her voice squeaking on the word professors.
"Wait, did you say Potter-Malfoy as in Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy?"
"Yeah, you good."
"Where is Harry?"
"Oh no yous don't! I knows all abouts yous! Yous and my daddy was close, not like Dragon and Daniel close. Oh no, yous like Mat and Dragon close." Elizabeth said, her speeching starting to improve a bit.
"Whose Mat, Daniel and Dragon?"
"Dragon one of my brothers, Mat his boyfriend, and Daniel is a friend."
"You have a brother? How do you know all these things?"
"I know all. Duh! Yous stupid, all people know Micheal and I know all. I have lots of brothers and sisters."
"Are you saying that this Michael and you are seers?"
"Yous really stupid, Michael my brother too."
"I am not stupid, you just don't explain everything."
"Lizzy, yous forget, he not all knowing like yous and me. He's like Dragon, he only know some things. He also been dead like Grandpa, he don't know lots of things."
"I knows Mikey."
"So your Micheal."
"Yes, I sorry for Lizzy, she forgets some times. Yous follow me, we explains lots." Michael said, opening one of the classroom doors with a wave of his hand.
"You two can do wandless magic?"
"Yeah, just like daddy."
"Where is your dad?"
"Argh, not dad, daddy. You need to ask for daddy with us little ones. Daddy is Harry, Dad is Draco, with Dragin Dad is Harry and Ather is Draco."
"Okay, Harry equals Daddy or dad..Father or dad equals Draco got it."
"Good. Dragon our big brother. He go here, then lizzy and me, then Lyssa, then triplets, then Upert and Audwey. Daddy said triplets are the evil mans babies, but they not evil they good cause daddy and dad loves em."
"Okay, Harry had children withsomeone else?When?"
"We no speak of that. That bad bad man."
"Okay. Anything else I should know?"
"Don't go out when the full moon is out. Uncle Moony is fun when he's in the sun. Uncle Snape will play if your magic's at bay. When daddy is round a baby's around, no stealing wands unless helping someone."
"Right so let me get this straight Uncle Moony must be a werewolf and the only werewolf Harry knows is Lupin. So Professor Lupin must be around. Don't use magic on Snape, when Harry's belly is round I guess that means he's pregnant, and you two steal wands way too often?"
"We no steal wands, we bring them back."
"Right, anything else?"
"Um, no seeing daddy."
"Why not?"
"You, come now." Michael said, taking Elizabeth's hand and leading Cedric to Dragon. "Dragin know what to do."

Dragon was currently in his Charms class, barely paying attention to tiny Professor Flitwick, yep that's right Professor Flitwick was still there.
"Dragin, psst Dragin." Michael whispered into the classroom. Dragon looked towards the door and his eyes went wide.
"Not now Michael, in three minutes the class will be over."
"Problem."
"How big?" Dragon whispered back over to him.
"Um...I sorry bad?"
"How bad is I'm sorry bad."
"Hi, I'm sorry to interrupt but my name is Cedric Diggory, we can wait until you're finished."
"That bad." Michael whispered, smiling innocently.
"Excuse me professor can I be excused? I think my siblings just brought back a dead person." Dragon said in a very calm voice, while Professor Flitwicks eyes went wide.
"Of course, should I inform your parents?"
"No, let's keep this quiet until I figure out the details." Dragon grabbed his stuff and left the classroom. "Okay you three follow me." Dragon said, leading them to the intern tower. "In."
"We only used magic to help some one hurt." Elizabeth explained looking at the ground.
"Oh, who?"
"You. You were hurt because Mat left." Michael explained.
"I meant if someone was injured, as in they had to go see Chastity. So you brought back Cedric Diggory to help me?"
"No! He a hitch hiker, we brought back Billy shape spheres."
"Do you mean William Shakespeare?"
"Yeah him."
"Why him?"
"He nice writer, he knows lots of love."
"You didn't do what I think you did. Did you have him write a love letter to Mat?"
"Poem."
"Great. Okay, Cedric I'm sorry I have no clue on how to send you back to where you came from. William probably was sent back a few minutes to hours from showing up, but if they did that yesterday then your portal is closed. You two are going to be in so much trouble when dad and father find out."
"Is there any way that I can see Harry?"
"NO!" Elizabeth and Michael both yelled.
"Okay, can you explain why they keep saying that?"
"That's a good question, why can't he see dad you two?"
"He and dad were like you and Mat."
"They were a couple?" Dragon asked.
"No."
"They were friends?" Dragon questioned again.
"No!"
"We were engaged to be married, is that the reason you won't let me see Harry?" Cedric asked, helping Dragon figure out the cryptic code the twins were writing.
"Yeah! Duh."
"Right so I can't see your married father, excuse me dad becase we were once engaged."
"Yes."
"You and dad were once engaged?" Dragon asked, a bit shocked.
"Yeah in your dad's fourth year, we had dated for a year and a half before, and before the third tornament I proposed. Well, obviously we all know what happened after that."
"Are you two afraid that with Cedric and dad seeing each other that father will turn bad again?"
"Draco was bad towards all of you?"
"No, long story let's just say he was Imperious'd into doingmean things, but only to me."
"Yeah, or daddy will leave dad for Cedric."
"If you two haven't noticed I'm a ghost." Cedric said, motioning down his body.
"That means nothing now-a-days." Dragon said, "there are ways of making a ghost coporeal if they really wanted it. Uncle Snape invented it over the summer for Grandfather Lucius. Now, you two you have to realize that yes Draco and Harry's relationship has been rocky, but they love each other unconditionally. If dad leaves father again, it would be for good, but he wouldn't do that unless he had an absolutely good reason, and if he knew the guy he left father for would be better for us then father. I understand that dad left father for Oliver, but remember how Oliver had father under that bad curse? That's why dad left him in the first place. He didn't leave because Oliver came into his life, he left to keep us safe."
"Still. We love dad."
"I know, and I know you're just looking out for both of them, just like you did for me, but you have to remember everything those two do is for our good. Dad needs to know about Cedric being here, and I know you are too young right now to understand why, but it would be like ifMelissa came back for me, and I'm sure you two could understand that a little."
"You'd want to know really bad." Michael said, bowing his head.
"Yes I would. Even though Melissa and I are only friends now, I would still want to know."
"Okay, we go take him to dad."
"How about this, I'll take him to dad, explain the situation and make sure you two don't get into as much trouble as you could."
"Thank you Dragin, we owe you."
"You're welcome, now day care...get. Sorry about them, they can be a handful at times."
"Did you mean what you said? That there's a way to make ghosts human?"
"Yeah, if you're interested I could talk to grandfather for you."
"Not just yet, I think I should get use to this first."
"You're probably right, come on. I'll show you where my dad is, he's probably teaching right now, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you waited in his office."
"Thank you, for everything Dragon."
"You're welcome. Hold on, um Professor Potter, you have a visitor is it okay if we wait in your office for you until after class?" Dragon asked, opening the classroom door.
"Of course Mr. Malfoy, I'll be in there momentarily." Harry said, before going back to his class.
"You call your dad Professor?"
"Yep, both of them, but only during school hours, and they know I have a huge problem if I don't. So my dad and you were engaged? Jello shots." Dragon said, opening Harry's office door from the outside. "Sorry, that's his password."
"Yeah, but only for two months."
"From what I've heard, from both my parents and through History of Magic and Current History, you would have made a great father."
"Thank you." Cedric blushed, sitting down infront of Harry's desk while Dragon sat behind it. "Are these your other siblings?"
"That's just Madison, Hailey and Shane the triplets. Here, these are Alyssa, Rupert, and Audrey." Dragon handed Oliver another picture frame. "The wars over, we won, um is there anything you'd like to know?"
"I really hate asking but I was just wondering if-"
"Harry really loves Draco? Truthfully, no one truly knows anymore, the only person who can answer that is Draco. Dad will tell you that he does love father, but if he's lieing or not, no one can tell anymore."
"Your dad, when he's lieing the very tip of his left ear turns the slightest color pink. Just briefly though, I never told him that, and I don't think it's something he could change, just in case you ever wanted to catch your dad in a lie."
"Thanks, I'll have to try that sometime."
"Let me show you first. That way you know what to look for. It's going to appear right here." Cedric pinched the very tip of his own ear so it would turn pink. "But you have to do it right after he answers. Okay? I'll incline my head a bit to the right when it's the question I know he'll lie about."
"Okay." Dragon said smiling, before Harry walked in. "Dad I believe you know Cedric Diggory."
"What?" Harry asked, his face went white as he turned to see the person sitting in the chair across from Dragon. "Merlin, is..is.." Harry asked, his eyes tearing up.
"Yeah, it's me. You have two very powerful twins."
"They did this, why?"
"They were trying to help me." Dragon said, before going into the explaination. "Please don't be mad at them, they did follow the rules. I was hurt, they just didn't understand what I meant."
"Okay, but I will have to talk to them."
"I understand."
"Hey Harry, so is it true you dated Terrance Higgs?" Cedric asked, inclining his head a bit to the right while asking the question. Dragon quickly looked at Harry's left ear.
"Of course not." Harry said. Dragon's eyes got wide, so his dad DID date Terrance Higgs, and Harry's ear really did turn a bit pink.
"Right, I'm still not going to believe it until I see proof." Cedric said smiling. "So Dragon, did you catch that? Your dad here says he didn't, but I swear he did, you're my witness though okay?"
"Yeah, I caught every word. You won't believe it till you see it, but he's claiming he didn't. Got it." Dragon said smiling. "I'm going to go to father's class now." Dragon said, walking behind Harry before winking.
"Dragon, can we talk on our way to Potions?" Mat asked, catching Dragon walking out of Harry's office.
"Look I'm really sorry about that letter, I know I promised to keep my distance from you and all b-" Dragon was cut off by Mat's lips on his.
"It might not have come from you, but the fact that you went through muggle pieces of work and found something that affected you, that meant so much to you and sent it to me. I was mad at first that you didn't keep your promise, but the poem was so..sincere, so touching, I loved it. I know that being with you, that there is a risk that it's dangerous, but I can't see my life without you. I would die if it kept you and Tiger safe, and I already know that you would do the same for me. Please forgive me for being idiotic."
"I don't know, I may have to think about this." Dragon said, looking at the ground.
"I understand, I've been a complete jerk." Mat started walking away, but only managed to get halfway down the corridor before Dragon came up behind him, and turned him around.
"You're not a jerk, I don't marry jerks." Dragon whispered before kissing Mat passionately. Mat pulled back a bit.
"Wait, I really do think you need to think about this. Dragon, while we were apart, I was confused, I've only been in one serious relationship and that's this one. I've never kissed another guy like I have you before, so I asked the Ravenclaw Prefect Ryan to kiss me."
"Well, how was it? He?"
"It meant nothing, he meant nothing. The kiss was dead, and I pulled away two seconds later. I told you I was a jerk."
"Come on, let's get to class before we're late." Dragon said, wrapping his arm around Mat's waist.

"You have two very sweet sons and a very nice daughter." Cedric said, following Harry around the office with his eyes.
"Ah, yes Elizabeth can be a bit assertive and pushy when she wants. Get's that from Draco, Michael's a bit more relaxed."
"How did you know I was talking about the twins?"
"They're the only two that can walk and talk. Well, better then a few broken sentences and first words." Harry said chuckling, looking at the pictures of his children spread across his desk.
"They're your life aren't they."
"Yeah, they mean the world to me." Harry was starting to get a bit distant.
"I'm sorry Harry, I really am."
"I know, it's not your fault. She would have been more powerful then Dragon and the twins."
"How do you figure?"
"To quote Moody, 'Before he was your age, he could turn a whistle into a watch and have it sing you the time.' That is an incredible bout of power."
"Did you ever think of a name for her?"
"Jade Aura Diggory. What about you?"
"Lily after your mother, Flora which is obvious, Diggory-Potter. She'd be our little Lily flower. No one ever knew did they, that we were together, that I was pregnant."
"Hermione did, she always knows everything, but when I lost both of you...You took a lot of me with you, took me two years to get over. Hermione tried to help me, but I obviously turned to Draco, but you were never far from my mind. When the war ended I left, no note, no nothing for years, until my inheritance was with held. That's when I found out Draco had given birth to Dragon."
"And now you're pregnant again."
"How did you know?" Harry asked shocked.
"Besides the rule, when daddy is round a baby's around. You just glow, like people who are pregnant do."
"You always knew me better then I know myself."
"Of course I did. I heard you were with Oliver Wo...od." Cedric said, pausing between the name at the look that came over Harry's face. "I'm sorry, Dragon told me something bad happened."
"Yeah, um, the triplet's are his. I've got a, um, a class to teach. Can we catch up later?"
"How about eight, we can meet up by the Lake?"
"Sure. Just make sure you say something, being a ghost you can sort of see through you and at night, well you get the idea."
"Yeah. Of course."
"You know, maybe you should go see Severus, he might be able to help you."
"Thanks, I might just do that." Cedric smiled, before gliding through the wall. Harry stared after him, before coming back to his senses and going to teach his class.

"Hey Dragon, look." Mat said at lunch, handing over the afternoon edition of the Daily Prophet. "I didn't know you preformed at the Three Broomsticks."
"Yeah, it was open mic night. Daniel, his brother, and Thomas took me." Dragon said, looking at the paper. He was singing on the front cover. The picture was a split between him and Daniel reading Sarah's poem. "Oh, I know that it's only October, but during Christmas break I was signed up for doing a sexy 'most hottest and wealthest bachelor's' calander for charity. You don't mind do you? I can always back out."
"Are you kidding? It's for charity, you should do it, help raise money."
"See I knew you'd be understanding."
"So what were you singing about?"
"Random stuff, it doesn't matter anymore. I love you."
"I love you too. So, are we going to move back into our rooms, or do you want to stay in the Intern tower?"
"Back to our rooms, the intern tower was fun, but the people in there...Let's just say it's already driving me insane. Hey there Tiger, miss your daddy?" Dragon asked, picking his son up out of the baby carrier and feeding him. "I can't wait until we have one of our own."
"I know. He or she will be just as good looking as his daddy."
"Yep, brown hair and eyes, and as smart as me." Dragon said laughing.
"You know what I meant, it'll have your looks, there's no doubt in my mind."
"Well, I hope it gets your smarts."
"Are you two already talking about having children?" Daniel asked sitting next to them. "Not that I mind Tiger, but don't you have like an actual engagement to announce and not some pre-engagement."
"Well seeming we're only pre-engaged, nope. Stop rushing us, we're going to wait." Dragon said, going back to his lunch.
"I'm not rushing, it's just you two have been together now for what? A year?"
"No, has it really been a year?" Dragon asked confused.
"Longer babe, try a year and a half." Mat look at him shocked.
"Wow, time flys." Dragon kissed Mat hoping that he'd forget.

"Dray, can we talk please." Harry asked, walking into Draco's classroom right at the end of class.
"What's wrong?" Draco asked, noticing the worried and upset look on Harry's face. He quickly walked across the classroom and wrapped his arms around Harry, pulling him into a hug. "Do you want to go somewhere private?" At Harry's nod Draco made a portkey and had Harry hold on. Once they stopped feeling the pull behind their navel, Harry looked up from Draco's shoulders to notice they were at his favorite place. It was a garden Narcissa had planted at Malfoy Manor, far from the house, whichhad an amazing view of the sky. It looked like if you walked straight you'd be able to fly. It's was Harry's sanctuary, he had always felt safe standing in the middle of the various flowers. Draco looked down and kissed him gently, before sitting down on the grass. Harry sat between Draco's legs leaning into Draco's chest, resting his head back onto Draco's shoulder. "So babe, what's wrong?"
"I don't know where to start, and I know starting at the beginning is always a good place, but not this time. The twins used magic to help Dragon and Mat get back together, because Dragon supposedly told them that it was ok to use magic if the person they were with or themselves were hurt or in danger of being hurt. So they brought someone back, who I've got no clue, but the spell they used had a side effect. It brought back a hitch hiker." Draco went to cut in, but at the determined but far off look on Harry's face, he decided not to. "The hitch hiker and I, we had a past. I guess you could say that, it meant, it was, I wish this was easier." Harry sighed.
"Take your time." Draco enlarged a rock behind him so he could rest against it, before running his fingers through Harry's hair,wrapping the other arm around his waist.
"When I met this person, I didn't know what love really was. I thought I had loved him, when in reality it was just lust, and seeing him today as a ghost confirmed that. I just needed to get away, to be with you."
"Whose this mystery guy?"
"Before I tell you, this guy and I well, we were engaged in my fourth year. He wanted to do the right thing, because he was pregnant. That's how I knew about the counter for Hermione and Ginny, and the potion for us. Cedric Diggory and I stumbled upon it one night, after it had spilled into Cedric's butterbeer while we were serving detention in Sev's office. We didn't know until it was too late, and he tried taking a counter to it right after we found out, but it was too late. So we decided to do the right thing and get engaged, obviously the Triwizard Tornament happened, and well."
"You lost both of them. Harry I'm so sorry." Draco's hand stilled in Harry's hair, but the hand around his waist pulled him closer. "I couldn't imagine what that would be like for you." Harry had just started crying. "If you want, we could name this one after the one you both lost." Draco rested his hand over Harry's small, unnoticable baby bump.
"That's very kind Dray, but I just want to forget about it all. He thought, thinks, that I loved him, but I was young, petrified. After the war, that's why I left, I just had to get away from everything. The war might have been over, but it wasn't for me. I had nothing left to fight for, the reason I was born, the reason I lived, was to defeat the Dark Lord, and that had ended and there was nothing left for me to do. I tried to stay, but walking around the corridors, all I could think about was those I lost, Sirius, my parents, Cedric, my unborn child, my relatives, too many people. Most of them one right after the other with no time to mourn, I couldn't mourn, I didn't have time because I was too busy training. You had a life, you knew what you were going to do, why should I just tag along? That's what I thought, that now that I was done with what everyone expected me to do, that no one would want me anymore."
"You might have felt like a pawn in a strategic game of chess Harry, but you were never that to me. You will never be that to me. Do you want to know what I see everytime I look at you?" Draco asked, turning his head so he could look at Harry in the eyes. "Everyday I wake up feeling safe, loved, and cared for. I thank Merlin every morning while your still asleep for giving me so many second chances with you. When those bright, lively emerald green eyes open up I can never stop staring into them. I have to physically pull myself away from them to take a shower, reminding myself that I will be able to stare at them before bed that night. The looks you give me when you don't think I'm looking make me feel special, wanted, longed for, and still incredibly sexy even though I'm thirty four. I'm older then I was back in school, my looks have changed. I know people still think I'm hot, but I don't feel it sometimes. I'm not as buff as I once was, but when you glance at me like you do when I get out of the shower, or walk infront of you in the corridors, makes me feel like I'm still 16. I get to look at your face every day, and I'm reminded of the angel that saved my life so many years ago. When you interact with our children, I can't help but smile and be reminded that I was so lucky to find someone who loves our children as much as you do. Someone whose such a great father, and you are, you are so strong Harry. The teacher in you reminds me of the kindness and generosity you've shown everyone, including me when I changed. Then every night I crawl into bed, watching out of the corner of my eye, while you get dressed and at the body, pregnant or not, that screams adonis. I love looking at your eyes when you laugh or smile, though when you smile my eyes are torn between looking at your lips and eyes. I'm infatuated with you, Harry. When we make love, no matter who tops who, your eyes might be filled with lust, but I can always spot how much you love me through them. Afterwards you fall asleep, and I can't help but watch as your breathing evens out, your heart rate slows down, and the way you curl into my side, and think of how lucky I am to have a lover like you. Someone whose sensitive, always careful, always gentle, and it warms my heart. Right before I fall asleep I thank Merlin for you, the children, and the life he's blessed me with. Then I kiss you on the temple, run my fingers through your hair once more, and whisper that I love you, before falling asleep in your arms. Knowing that the next morning, no matter what happens, no matter how hectic our day gets, I will always get to do that again." Harry wrapped his arm around Draco's neck pulling Draco down for a kiss. "I love you Harry, more then anything."
"I love you too Draco. Remarry me." Harry said, turning around in Draco's arms.
"What?"
"Let's redo our vows. The proper way, huge wedding, social event of the year, the wedding you've always wanted but never had. Price isn't a factor, nor is the amount of guests. We've been divorced twice now, and remarried by Remus at Hogwarts in corridors, let's reaffirm our vows, or write new ones."
"You're serious aren't you?"
"Yes, I'm serious. If we start planning now, we can try to be ready by Christmas. We can hire a few wedding planners, and if we aren't ready by Christmas we can do it during the summer. What do you think? Draco Malfoy will you marry me again."
"Of course! Of course I'll remarry you!" Draco said, his eyes wide as he practically clung to Harry like his life depended on it.

That night, Chastity put the kids to bed before quickly running into her and Severus' room and drawing a bubble bath and lighting candles around the bath, before turning on very slow classical music. After the tub filled, she turned the water off before casting a warming charm on it to keep it warm. She then changed into a silky, very low cut, silver neglige. She left her bedroom and lit the two candles on the dining room table before dimming the lights. Quickly she raced towards the kitchen, opening the refrigerator to take out wine and place it on ice before placing it on the table. Severus was due back any mintue and had no clue what Chastity had planned out. She practically ran into the bedroom to light the candles in there and make sure that everything was in place when she heard the potrait door open. She quickly walked out of the bedroom and over to Sev who was just walking through the door. "Chastity, have you tal-." Severus finally looked up to see Chastity standing infront of him, her hair was pulled back with a clip, a few strands were loose and framing her face. "You look so beautiful." Severus gasped out, dropping the student's essay's on the floor. Chastity took Severus' cloak and placed it on the chair, before taking Severus' hand and leading him towards the table.
"Thank you. I figured since the kids are asleep, that we could have some time to ourselves." Chastity took her wand off of the table and placed locking charms on the door before placing silencing charms around the whole of their room. Severus picked up the bottle of wine, popping the cork before pouring both himself and Chastity a glass. He handed her her glass, clinking them together, before kissing her.
"How long did it take you to set this up?"
"Oh, about all day. Dinner is ready." Chastity pulled the silver covers off of the plates. "So how was your day?" Severus pulled Chastity's seat out for her before taking his own.
"Hectic. I had first and second year Slytherins and Gryffindors." Severus said between bites.
"Aww, how did you manage. No one messed up that badly did they?"
"No, not as badly as it could have been." Most of the dinner was ate in silence, each of them catching quick glances at the other. Once Chastity had collected the plates and placed them in the sink to do tomorrow morning, she blew out the candles before taking Severus' hands.
"Come on, let's get those potion fumes out of your hair." Severus wrapped his arms around Chastity's waist as they walked through the bedroom and into the bathroom. Kissing Severus, Chastity started to undress him. Severus had it easy, all he did was run his hands over Chastity's shoulders and the dress was pooled at her feet. Severus got in first, holding his hand out to help Chastity get into the bath. Once inside the bath, Chastity sat behind Severus, massaging his shoulders and kissing his neck.
"That feels good. Thank you." Severus said, relaxing back a bit before picking up the soap and washing the front of himself before handing the sponge to Chastity's out reached hand so that she could get his back while massaging it also. Once Chastity was done, she wrapped her arms around Severus, running her hands up Severus' chest. Severus turned in the water facing Chastity before turning her around and repeating what Chastity had done to him. Washing her hair just as carefully as she had done to him. Once they were done washing each other, both of them soaked a bit longer, Chastity resting against Severus.
"This feels nice. Being with you like this." Chastity said, her eyes closed and her fingers searching out Severus' hands and intwining their fingers.
"With two children we don't get to do this as much as we use to."
"Yeah, but I wouldn't change it for the world." Chastity brought Severus' hand to her lips kissing his knuckles.
"I wouldn't either." Severus pulled the plug with his toes before picking Chastity up bridal style out of the tub and towards the bedroom. He set her down on the bed, before crawling ontop of her and kissing her. It wasn't long before Chastity had gained control of the kiss and rolled Severus onto his back.
"It's time you learned to let others be in control." Chastity said, kissing her way down Severus' body, running the tip of her tongue over Severus' washboard abs. Most people would think that Severus, being pale, covered head to toe in black, and a permenant fixture in the Hogwarts dungeons,wouldn't be as muscular as he really was. Luckily for both Severus and Chastity, years of being a spy and of course a Slytherin left him in top shape. Chastity started teasing Severus, loving the way he tried not to squirm, before taking Severus into her mouth. She waited until he was just about to come before pulling back.
"If...You...Keep doing...Stuff...Like that...You're going...to get...called...a tease." Severus panted, trying to catch his breath.
"But where would the fun in that be?" Chastity asked, lowering herself onto Severus. She started off slow just to tease him more, before increasing her speed until both her and Severus came calling out each other's name.

"Ready to go back Har?" Draco asked, looking from the stars they were sitting under to Harry. "Harry, Haaarrrry." Draco whispered in a sing song voice, seeing that Harry was asleep.
"Hmm?" Harry asked, leaning more into Draco's side after he had turned a bit. "I don't wanna move, I like it here with you."
"I like it here with you too babe. We have children to feed and papers to grade, I promise we can come back here tomorrow and do this again if you want."
"I'm holding you to that." Harry said smiling, before kissing Draco gently. "I love you."
"I love you too. Come on, before you fall asleep again." Draco got up and offered his hand to help Harry up. Once they were both up, they portkeyed back to Draco's office.
"Why don't you go take care of the kids, I'll be there in a minute. I just have to sort something out before today's over."
"Okay, take your time." Draco said, walking towards the door, looking in the small mirror hanging on the wall. Draco smiled to himself as he saw Harry staring at him lovingly in the mirror. Harry walked out of Draco's office a while after Draco left, and went in search of Cedric.
"Looking for me?" Cedric asked, floating out of the Great Hall.
"Actually yes, can we talk?" Harry asked, guestering towards the front doors. Cedric went through then while Harry opened them up and walked out into the night.
"I'm going to take a stab at this and say it has something to do with us." Cedric said, looking out at the lake while Harry sat on the stairs.
"I told Draco everything, about us, our child, the engagement. Ced, I am in love with Draco, with all of my heart and soul. However, being around you, seeing you after...everything. Look,Severus can give you a body if you want, but after please just leave."
"Before I leave you alone, I need to know, did I mean anything to you? Did we as a couple mean anything to you? Cause if there was an inkling of what I felt for you, I'm not leaving, I'm not giving up on us."
"It was lust, that's it. I'm sorry, I thought I loved you, but at the time I didn't know what love was. I didn't know how to distinguish between the two, lust is mistaken by people all the time. Like I love Draco, but I lust after Johnny Depp in a Pirate Suit. I'm sorry Ced, I really am."
"So all I was was a good fuck." Harry couldn't even look Cedric in the face. "Then why did you agree to marry me?" Cedric's hurt voice ask.
"It was the right and noble thing to do, you were pregnant with my child."
"I'm sorry I ever met you. You're nothing but a no good, dirty rotten, arsehole."
"Yeah, well your a child molester. That is what they call adults who have sex with minors."
"You consented."
"It doesn't matter. It's still against the law."
"Oh and you and Draco were of consenting age?"
"Both of us were the same age! One wasn't of age and the other far from it. I'm sorry, I really am but it's the truth."
"Maybe my death was a blessing in disguise. I'm glad I'm not married to a jerk like you, Malfoy and you deserve each other."
"Draco is not a jerk, and a lot better then you are."
"It's Malfoy, there's no way he could change. He's obviously brain washed you."
"You bloody jerk! My parents are better then you could wish to ever be!" Dragon said, opening the castle doors and splashing the coporeal potion on him. "You aren't even worthy enough to kiss his shoes."
"You little boy, need to keep your nose out of other people's business. You worse then they are, which is only excepted seeming that you were raised around their filthy family."
"It's better then your parents, who boost about how great you are, only to have to learn that your death was the result of not listening to my dad in the first place. Had you listened to him you wouldn't have been killed, but no, you had to search the grave yard, ask Wormtail who he was.You are the only one to blame for your own death and stupidity."
"You speak about things you know absolutely nothing about. How could you, with an inadequit teacher."
"I will not allow you to talk to my son like that." Harry yelled, but Dragon had enough. He ran towards Cedric, tackling the newly human Cedric, before repeatedly punching him in the face. Harry pulled Dragon off of Cedric by the neck of his robes.
"You'll pay for that you brat, I'll have you in Azkaban."
"Try, I dare you! I'm not afraid to go back, but I doubt Alohov would allow you to throw me in Azkaban when I was just protecting someone you had molested when they were a child. Who do you think will get off on the lesser charges? I'm the worst person you could fuck with and you're trying just that. Unless you want to spend the rest of your new life rotting in Azkaban, I suggest you start leaving. The Hogwarts gates are that way." Dragon said, pointing towards the gates, wiping his bleeding lip on the back of his hand. Once Cedric was a far bit away Harry turned towards his son.
"What are you donig out of bed at this hour? It's way past curfew." Harry asked, sitting on the stairs again and pulling Dragon down into his lap. He took his wand out and healed Dragon's busted lip.
"I was on my way to see you and father, but I saw you and Cedric leaving through the door so I thought I would follow to make sure you'd be okay."
"Dragon, I appreciate you standing up for me, your father, and the family, but I wish you wouldn't have fought with him. You could have gotten seriously injured. I would have been fine."
"Dad, I...Look, I'm sorry."
"No dad what? What were you going to say?"
"I don't want anything to happen to you. You and father have been through so much in your life, especially when you were both younger, and I don't think you should still have to suffer now a days. You two have so much going for you right now, things that I can only dream of having when I'm old enough to have them, and I'm sick of seeing people trying to take that away from you two. Read this please, when you get a chance. I've got to go, I told Mat that I would be back shortly."
"So you two are back together?" Harry asked, taking the rolled up parchment from Dragon.
"Yeah, and it's great."
"Okay, go on, go back to bed. I'll tell your father that you said goodnight."
"Thanks, and dad."
"Yeah Drag?" Harry asked, turning towards Dragon, who was standing half in and half out of the door.
"You're the best. I love you." With that Dragon went back inside. Harry smiled to himself before unrolling the parchment.
I Come with A Purpose, You Leave with A Cause.
By Dragon Malfoy
When we were assigned this essay, my first thought was that this would be completely idiotic. Why would we have to write about our hero for an Arithmacy class. Then I thought about it, from the teacher's point of view, it's because in our fifth and seventh year, we have to use our words to explain the topics we are given. From my point of view, I thought it was idiotic because I didn't have hero. I had never thought of this concept before. So while I was on my little vacation from 2006, I had some time to think about what made someone a hero, is it someone who lays their lives on the line day in and day out to save people? Someone who teachs others so that they can go out and fend for themselves, make names for themselves, and become hero's also. Then I got to see a side to someone I had never seen before. Now, before I begin, you might be wondering why I titled my paper I come with a purpose, you leave with a cause. My purpose for writing this isn't because it was assigned to me, it's because I'm going to show a side to someone no one has seen before. When you're done reading this, you're going to walk away with a different view about yourself, a cause if you will about the way you can chose to live your life. Are you a fighter or couch potato. My hero is my dad, Harry James Potter-Malfoy, and even though he's a hero to a lot of people in the wizarding world, that's not why he's mine.
My dad in the eyes of the wizarding world is a hero because of a prophecy made that said he was the only one able to vanquish Voldemort. He saved a lot of people's lives, and was named The-Boy-Who-Lived-Again. Not many people dig far enough, or get to know him well enough, to see what really makes my dad a hero. It's not because he saved the wizarding world, it's because of what he was able to do inspite of that. Harry Potter to me, is not a war hero but a great dad. He saved my father from himself, and his family, during a time where the Malfoy's had pledged alliance to the dark side of a long terrible war. My dad gave Draco a place to stay, a life to be proud of, and something to live for. He was able to find love at a time when it was thought that love was impossible to find. You didn't know who to trust or who you could turn to, and here he was able to again rise up above everyone else's pride and prejudice, and unconditionally love my father. Then they had me, and when most people who were put in Harry's place would have been too busy to take proper care of a child, my dad would decline interviews with people such as the Minister of Magic to rock me to sleep. When he had to go to another country to talk to people, instead of leaving me behind, he brought me with him and held me on his hip while he gave his speech, even though something like that could make him look vulnerable. A trait which has been known to be a target for those out to harm someone. Then they had more children, nine more to be exact, plus one on the way, and no matter how busy it gets, he always makes time for all of us. He heals our cuts, stays with us if we're sick, listens to our problems, and never asks for anything in return.
Over the summer, there was a brief period where my parents were divorced, and my dad had seven of us to care for on his own. It had to be near impossible to keep up with us. Especially with the twins, triplets and Alyssa waking up at all hours of the night, making sure that I was doing okay, and that my father was law abiding. He had to deal with his own feelings, fears, loniness, but I never saw him cry, I had never felt fear come off of him. He did it to make sure us kids weren't afraid, he was strong for us, and that showed just how much he cared, and just how strong he really is. He's been toyed with, has stuff happen to him that he didn't deserve, and he's so strong today because of it. When he was younger he went wanting all the time, he makes sure that my siblings and I don't do that. At the same time, he makes sure we aren't spoiled either.
So, the Boy-Who-Lived-Again might be what the wizarding world sees him as, but if they really looked at him, looked at the boy he once was to the man he's become, they might just be surprised to see what a wonderful man he really is. That he's one of the best father's, husband, and friend anyone could ask for. He didn't just survive the war, he survived life, the press, and the manipulation the wizarding world at large has done to him. They made him believe that it was do or die, and has yet to see that he's still fighting, it might not be a war, but it's apart of life. You have to fight for what you believe in, fight for what you want to keep, fight for love. If there is one thing my dad has taught me, it's that life is full of small wars, and even though some of them seem impossible, life in general is worth fighting for. The question that anyone at any one time should be asking themselves is, are you fighting hard enough to be worthy of your life, of the things in it? Or are you sitting back and watching it just waste away?
Harry sat there stunned, tears running down his cheeks. The first time he read it through, he was stunned, shocked, and awed. He sat there for hours reading over it, until Draco came out and got him, bringing him back to the rooms and holding him until they both fell asleep.

A/N 2: Ha Ha Happy April Fools! It actually broke my heart to write that, I really did almost cry! Hmm, I wonder how many people actually fell for that. By the way, the wedding has already been planned out and I have pictures of practically everything thanks to my sister for helping me. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter though, Dragon's essay has no quotes or sayings borrowed from anything, they are all my original words. Where I got the inspiration to write that, having a dead beat dad and a crappy step-dad, is a secret of my own. Now, I'll turn it over to Sevvie who decided he wanted to take another stab at the reviews.
Sev: Yes I'm back! Ha ha, and don't go getting all sappy on me, and I REFUSE to do any sort of provocative stripping. I'm not a Potter, my clothes stay on.
Sarahamanda: Glad you enjoyed the last chapter.
Heather: Some day :(. Not now? Dragon: I love you all too. Kime: Thank you. Glad you loved the last chapter.
Inuyasha531: Dragon: But Kime and I have been drinking since she was 12, and driving since we were 16. Plus, Kime's mum pays for our cellphones. Glad you enjoyed the chapter though. Yes the twins are evil. The stuff with Lucius, that was the whole point, no one wanted you to see that coming, hence why it's called Twisted school year and not Blantly Obvious school year. I will NEVER stop drinking! Mwahahahahahahaha. Kime:No sorry, no hints on what Harry's child is going to be. Hi Ritchie. You should untie your brother that's not nice.
Adrianne: Ha ha of course things are happening silly, but then they ended. Dragon: I am happy about my baby -------. Glad you enjoyed the Shakespeare and hitchhiker part.
Kelly: Dragon: (hugs back) Well thanks. Kime: (Backs up with hands in the air) I said they'd be alright! I swear! James: eep? Are you embarrased about me taking my boxers off?
