Chapter 15

I woke with a start, momentarily forgetting where I was. I glanced about and settled when I realized I was in my bedroom. Heavy breathing jolted my memory to last night and glancing over I found Draco. Half in the sheets and half of him not; lost in his dreams. Leaning back into my pillow I took a moment to savor the memories. From him asking me to dinner to coming back to my apartment and most of all, us having sex.

Surprisingly it never once felt strange and even now I still didn't feel apprehensive about making the decision. Getting out of bed slowly so not to wake Draco, I grabbed my robe and headed into the bathroom to freshen up.

While I was unsure of where all of this was going I hoped that he really was telling the truth when he said he wanted more than a fling. My bare feet padded against the wood floor as I stepped into the hall and into the kitchen. Choosing the muggle way, I went about putting coffee on and making food for us. That is if he even wanted to hang around after.

"The coffee and food smell great."

Turning around, Draco was leaning against the kitchen door. Bare chested and his pants from last night on. I'd be lying if I tried denying that this was a pleasant way to start the day.

"I thought you might want food if you have the time." I remark as he walked over to me, planting a light kiss on my cheek.

"I'd love to. What all did you make?"

"Great, um… I made pancakes, bacon and eggs. There's coffee ready or there's a variety of juice in the fridge." I remarked moving next to him to check on the bacon.

"Making it the muggle way too I see. Do you always cook in that fashion? "

He made himself a cup of coffee and leaned against the fridge watching me as I turned the bacon and kept an eye on the pancakes in the pan over to the left. I glanced over at him before finally responding.

"Most of the time I do, it's sort of therapeutic for me. If I'm in a rush or dead from work, then I'll use magic to have the food made. Do you like your eggs a certain way or it doesn't matter?"

"I guess I never looked at cooking that way; we use magic but most of the time the house elves make our food. Sunny side up if you don't mind."

"Well you should try it sometime, you might find you like doing it all yourself." I teased lightly, cracking the egg as I started on his, "I don't care, I love cooking for company."

He nodded thoughtfully as he began to take some of the food to the dining room table as I finished up the last of the bacon. Idly talking about how things with Scorpius was going and his mother.

"Well, thank you for all the food. I didn't realize you loved to cook." Draco states taking a sip of his coffee as we both began to put food on our plates.

"I have to have at least a few surprises. Did you sleep well?"

"Like a rock which is very unusual. Whether I'm getting woken up at the crack of dawn from Scorpius or just in general, I'm a light sleeper."

After we ate I did end up using magic for everything to get cleaned and packed away, so we could settle on the couch with the rest of our coffee.

"I hope you had fun yesterday." Draco asked taking a sip of his coffee as he continued tracing circles on my legs which were draped over his lap.

"Yes, I enjoyed all of it. You?"

"The same."

He replied, putting his coffee cup next to mine on the coffee table before hovering over me, forcing me to tip my head back to look at him. Gently, he placed one of his hands on the side of my face as he placed a light kiss on my lips. Lingering slightly to wait for my return kiss which I heartedly returned. Adjusting slightly so my legs were no longer over his lap but on either side of his body. Trying not to put all his weight on me he leaned over me with one hand taking his weight while the other was tangled in my hair as we continued making out on the couch.

It didn't take long for what was light, affectionate kissing to turn heated, desperate urging and once again we were pulling our clothes off; getting tangled on the couch again. Draco leaned down, his hair falling in front of his face as he gave me an urging kiss as his hand continued their teasing as he slipped a finger and then two inside me. I moaned against his ear as I was lost in a haze of pleasure. I vaguely remember him urging me on as he continued to plant butterfly kisses down my neck.

"Please…Draco." I pant out, squirming for him to stop the teasing.

Locking eyes with him when he finally paused for a moment, desire and playfulness was etched in his face and he smirked before planting a soft kiss on me. He pulled his fingers out and after a slight change in the angle he thrusted into me and he let out a groan as leaned his head next to mine.

"Fuck, Eva."

I chuckled softly, moving my hips and we fell in tangent with each other. Egging each other on and taking the time to learn and explore each other and what riled us up.

My hands gripped his back, cursing as we both got closer to climaxing. His head was tilted between my head and shoulder, his one hand gripping my hip to keep me from changing the spot and the other helping support his weight. He thrusted once more, sending us both over the peak and we both moaned in happy release.

Both breathing heavily, our bodies slick with sweat as we tried to come down and see straight. My god! He sure knew how to please…. for all his talk about being a single dad. Ha! Draco sighed, as he planted a kiss on my forehead before getting off me and this time using his wand to clean the both of us up. Murmuring my thanks, we both got up and put our clothes back on before he laid down on the couch and I half laid on his chest.

"So, what is the plan for today?" Draco murmured.

"Well, I think first you have to get your son. After that we can meet at the office, so we can either head to Gringotts together today or sometime this week." I remarked, shifting slightly so I could look up at him.

"Okay, let's try to go today and get this going. Just be on your guard when we go. I'm not sure what to expect or if it'll tip anyone off." Draco began pausing slightly, "I don't want to leave yet."

"Will we have Blaise come with us as an extra set of eyes? We do need to get moving though."

He sighed but nodded his head shifting us to start getting up, "I thought we would leave Blaise at the office so that if anything suspicious happens there, he'll be able to respond. I also have a few of the security guards that reside on the top level on alert that if Blaise asks for their service to follow his direction. It shouldn't be needed but just in case."

We headed back to the bedroom where he could put on the rest of his clothes and for me to start figuring out what I was going to wear to work.

Sitting on the bed I wait as he gets changed, "I think that having Blaise stay at the office is a good plan. Plus, it might add suspicion on why we have the three of us to be looking at files when it's your Company. It's exciting isn't it? Scary at what the potential threat could be but still thrilling that we're finally about to find some real answers."

Buttoning up that last of his shirt buttons he grins over at me, "Yes. I'm anxious to finally find the person and get back to normal."

He came over and pulled me into an embrace, kissing me lightly on the lips, "I'll see you in an hour or so?"

"I believe so." I remark with a grin, following him up out into the living room where he stepped into the floo and disappeared.

An hour and a half later I was strolling into the Draco's office. I ended up going with casual clothes consisting of, black slack and a v neck flowered blouse with a sweater. My id card swung from where it was clipped at the bottom of my shirt. Walking into his office I noticed that Blaise was also there, lounging in one of the chairs.

"Morning guys." I remark shutting the door and taking a seat next to Blaise.

"I hear that you guys are getting to do the exciting work and get leave this office?" Blaise retorts with a scowl.

"I didn't realize you had so much enthusiasm for reading ledgers?"

"Ha ha."

"Now that you're here and Blaise is up to speed, we should get moving. You remember the dates for the withdrawals that we found?" Draco interrupted before his gaze finally landed on me.

"Yes, I have them written down and in my pocket."

"Good, Blaise, if anything serious does happen try to send a Patronus or have Kerry send one to notify us."

"Will do. Don't have too much fun without me."

Blaise headed out the door and we followed suit on our path to the floo network. I was jittery about all of this, from anticipation to what we'll find out to the underlining threat of who was behind this. It brought back memories of my years at Hogwarts, dashing off with Harry, Ron and Hermione, breaking hundreds of school rules and the looming threat of who we might be up against. I had moved my wand to be inside my sweater sleeve so that I would have a better reaction time in case something did happen.

Stepping into the main lobby of Gringotts I unclipped my Malfoy ID and clipped on my Gringotts access card as I took the lead in weaving the two of us through the traffic of people and passed security who waved me through a door on the left with Draco strolling next to me. From my notes from Claire, the MCH Department held their files in the basement. The basement had a few different check points before we would get to the files.

We stepped into the elevator door and watched the door creek shut as I turned back to Draco, "So once we get down, security will ask for my id and will scan you to make sure you aren't using Polyjuice potion or something else."

"Lovely. Glad to know they take this so serious for seven years of paperwork." Draco remarked dully.

"I was just as surprised that security was so tight but then again this is more than just paperwork. This has banking information, so people's security is at risk either way."

He hummed thoughtfully has the elevator dinged, signaling that we made it to the ground level. The door slowly pulling open until clinking into place, signifying the new step in this drawn out issue. Looking forward I was surprised to find a familiar face.
