Harry stared up at Daddy, his eyes going wide, Daddy was going to leave him in that giant cage and expect him to go sleep? Harry shook his head 'no', not wanting to say the word out loud, afraid that Daddy would spank him again.
"Harry…" Daddy said a slight warning in his tone, the smile gone from his face.
Harry bit his lip, and looked around. "I know! I s'eep in big boy bed!" Harry said triumphantly looking at Daddy with wide eyes trying to get him to say yes.
"Hmmm, ah no" Daddy said picking him up, Harry pouted at him.
Daddy was carrying him out of the nursery, so maybe Harry had convinced him after all. Daddy walked into the kitchen, without setting Harry down, he pulled out a bottle from one of the cupboards and reached for the milk in the fridge. He poured it in almost to the top and screwed the lid on,
"Would you like me to warm it up?" Daddy asked lightly shaking the bottle.
"Yes p'ease." Harry said, watching as Daddy murmured something and waved his wand over the bottle before stashing his wand away. Daddy picked up the bottle and walked back to the nursery, Harry sighed he hadn't changed his mind.
Daddy went over to the rocking chair and sat down positioning Harry across his lap face up, his head nestled in the crook of his arm.
Daddy brought the bottle to Harry's lips as he began to gently rock the chair. Harry latched onto it and immediately began to suck down the warm milk, his eyes looking up and landing on Daddy's black ones.
Daddy ran a rough hand softly down his cheek. He gazed up at him, wondering how he had gotten lucky enough to have a Daddy like him. Sure, he hated a lot of parts of being little but Daddy had never been really mean or lost patience, he had spanked him because Harry had earned it and Harry knew that he kind of needed a firm Daddy.
"Today was a big day wasn't it my Harry?" Daddy murmured brushing the hair off his forehead. Harry nodded, not wanting to let go of his bottle.
"You were a very good boy today, even with the spanking. Daddy is very proud of you." Harry smiled around the nipple, he loved when Daddy said he was proud of him.
"Daddy knows it's hard for you to switch over and let me care for you. I want you to know that I will be with you every step of the way. I will be there to catch you" Daddy said lightly scratching his scalp. The bottle coupled with the rocking, Daddy's praise and the scratching was making Harry's eyelids droop. He wanted to stay up and fight Daddy on sleeping in the crib but it was a lost cause anyway and he was so tired… he would just close his eyes for a minute…
Harry's eyes popped open, he was just entering the shrieking shack, his heart pounding in his chest. Hermione and Ron ran quietly alongside him they needed to find Daddy, it was really important but Harry couldn't remember why they needed him. Harry turned a corner and stopped dead his eyes widening in horror.
Voldemort stood there in all his former glory his red eyes piercing through Harry when they locked in on his. Harry froze, like a deer in headlights. He thought Voldemort was dead. He finally tore his eyes away and gasped, Daddy was standing behind Voldemort.
"Daddy!" Harry cried out, wanting to warn him to get away from the monster. He knew something really bad would happen if Daddy stayed here.
"On no no no Harry, you see Daddy only listens to me and I want him to stay right there," Voldemort said a smirk curling on his lips.
Harry glared at Voldemort and turned to call for Daddy again but found he couldn't. There was a dummy in his mouth and no matter how hard he tried to push it out it wouldn't budge. Harry whined and brought a hand up to pull it out but he still couldn't! Voldemort began to laugh, a high cruel laugh.
"You think you can beat me Harry Potter? Watch as I destroy your last chance at happiness." Harry looked up terrified at what Voldemort was going to do.
Voldemort began to hiss, he was speaking parseltongue but for once Harry could not understand it. Nagini slithered forward her fangs poised to strike, Harry realized what was happening a second before it did. He screamed as Nagini attacked Daddy, leaving great big holes in his neck. Daddy fell to the floor, his entire body trembling. Harry tried to run forward but he was suddenly being held by Voldemort.
"I'm going to be your Daddy now," He cackled,
Harry screamed again and tried to get out of his fierce grip, he watched the light leave Daddy's eyes, tears running down Harry's face.
"No Daddy! I don't wanna be 'lone! P'ease No... no no!" Harry sobbed still fighting the arms around him. "Daddy!"
"Harry!"
Harry jerked awake, he looked around and saw he was in the crib, Daddy standing over him. Harry burst into tears and reached for Daddy clinging to his neck when he was picked up.
"Oh Harry tell me what happened, talk to me baby." Daddy pleaded, lightly bouncing him as he walked around the room.
"Sh'ieking shack...an' an' Daddy there and Vo-voldemort an' he tell Nagini to kill y-you and Voldemort was my Da-ddyyy… and you was died Daddy!" Harry sobbed, he was beginning to hyperventilate.
"Breathe, dove, it's okay He's dead and he is not coming back. Hush now. I'm alive, and I won't be going anywhere I promise, baby." Daddy rubbed his back, and kept encouraging him to breath until his breathing finally got back to normal.
"Are you feeling a bit better now?"
"Uh huh, Daddy." Harry said, his arms still hanging onto Daddy's neck.
"This will not become an everyday thing but would you like to come and sleep with Daddy tonight?"
Harry nodded into Daddy's neck, "P'ease Daddy."
