Draco and Blaise's wedding day had arrived. Lucius had been asked by his son to stand up for him as his best fried was also his groom. Harry and Teddy were sitting with Andromeda and Ted. They were after all Draco's Aunt and Uncle. And since the war ended Draco had got to know them well. His father had reached out to Draco's only living family after the war and that was the Tonks and Harry oddly enough. Harry and Teddy were sitting in the family row which was quite empty but because of his adoption as heir by Sirius, Harry was legally a member of Draco's family already on his mother's side. Though he was more then ware that Lucius hoped that Harry would be his husband. Lucius had told him the night Harry had told him he and Teddy were going to be staying permanently in London, that he planed on proposing to Harry and hoped to even have them married by this time next year. Harry was not sure he would be ready so soon though but he was starting to realize he would be ready. As he sat watching the wedding he could no longer deny he was picturing his own wedding.
He and Severus had never got past the engagement. They had been together for two years, since early in his sixth year, Christ they had agreed to adopt and raise Teddy if his parents died. But Severus wanted Harry to have a proper wedding, not elope. And had not wanted to make him a widow. Instead Harry had been a widow in all but name. But he realized now it had been over two years and it was okay to move on. And knew Severus would have approved of Lucius. And Remus and Tonks would have approved of Lucius helping him raise his son. Andromeda and Ted had assured him that their daughter would have and son in law as well.
Teddy clapped as he was watching. "Uncle Luc, Uncle Luc."
Harry kissed his son on the head. "He is acting as your Uncle Draco's best man. He will come see you when the wedding is done. We need to be quiet little one."
Though he was not sure his son could sit through it Lucius had insisted he come. Draco had as well. Draco wanted his future stepbrother there. He had started to realize that Harry was a reality in his future. Blaise had made him realize his father was head over heels in love with Harry. And Draco had sent a formal invite. Harry knew that Draco was attempting to make peace with his late godfather's former fiancé and his former lover as well being involved with his dad.
Harry turned back to the ceremony as he noticed that Blaise had been brought to the front by his parents. Harry had noticed some former classmates around he had not seen since graduation. He thought it would be interesting to speak to them at the reception. He saw Pansy was there, Draco's girlfriend before he had come out.
"Do you Draco Lucius Malfoy take Blaise as your husband and bond, united in body and soul, until death parts you?"
Draco looked happier then he had ever seen him. "I do."
"Do you Blaise Carlos Zaibini take Draco as your husband and bond, united in body and soul, until death parts you?"
Blaise he could see was nearly in tears. "I do."
After the rings were exchanged and Lucius had done his part he looked over at Harry and Teddy. He shared a smile with Harry and Teddy waved happily from his place in Harry's lap. Harry was shocked and had to smile when Lucius actually waved to the little boy from his place next to Draco as they went to sign the contract before Draco and Blaise were presented as Draco and Blaise Malfoy. For a moment Harry could actually see himself being the one getting married this time next year and saying those lines with Lucius. The couple were being wed in the snow blanketed gardens which had a slight warming spell on it. But the rest of the manor he could even imagine having a beautiful wedding in or perhaps they would elope.
Andromeda saw him shake his head with the thoughts. "He is getting to you isn't he? Imagining your wedding to Lucius are you?"
Harry kissed her cheek. "I love you and your meddling but we are not there yet. You will have to settle for your grandsons being close to home full time now."
Laughing Andromeda assured him that she was more then happy for that. He had told them the day after he had decided. He had been going to head back to New York to see to his business plans and such but Lucius seemed worried to let him go and had helped him handle business from here. He had people who could run his company for him from New York and he could do some from here in London. His assistant he had found a promotion and new position for her in the company. He would have loved if she would have come with him for he would never find a better assistant but she had a life in New York. He had paid off all of her wedding bills and the mortgage on the house her and her fiancé just managed to make a down payment on, as well as the new job with a pay raise. She had been his life saver and he had been happy to have a way of thanking her for putting up with his craziness for over a year. He had received an invite to her wedding and he would be going.
Harry picked up Teddy and headed inside for the reception would be starting in the ballroom. "How about we go find your Uncle Luc?"
Lucius had come up unseen and kissed him on the cheek. "I am here. We have a bit of time before the reception and then there is a playroom for the kids to use."
Thinking Teddy would likely have a better time in the playroom Harry agreed and handed his son over as Teddy was holding his hands up for Lucius to take him. He saw some odd looks from those who recognized him even after his physical changes since school but he was just going to enjoy being here for the wedding. The Malfoys definitely knew how to throw a beautiful wedding though he assumed the Zaibinis who were also a rich pure blood family, had likely been involved.

Lucius had gone to see his son for a bit and Harry had come back from kissing Teddy. Andromeda and Ted were leaving and taking Teddy for the weekend. Harry had thought it was another perk to staying here. Not the free baby-sitter but all the time for Teddy with the couple. Harry was sipping a glass of wine when he found some of his former classmates coming his way. So far he had won Draco over and had it out with his former friends; he was not sure what he would get from them.
He smiled when he saw Pansy was pregnant. "You look glowing Pansy. Who is the lucky father and husband?"
Pansy smiled and placed her hand against her belly. "Adrian Pucey, you knew him from quidditch, and I have been married for just over a year now."
Harry had of course played quidditch against him for a few years. He had bee one of the few friendly snakes of the older years. Many of them had become Death Eaters like Flint. The only ones their age had been Theo and Daphne as well as another girl Harry had not even known the name of. He could see Pansy looked to be about five months pregnant and she confirmed that she was indeed due with their first son in the end of April. Adrian worked for Gringotts and she worked for a magazine.
Greg looked at him. "I knew you shagged Draco back in school but now you have gone for his dad? I heard rumours you were doing Professor Snape before he died."
Harry shrugged. "I was engaged to Severus yes, and I believe you saw our son with me earlier, Teddy Snape. And yes I am involved with Lucius. Have a problem?"
Vince laughed. "Not at all. Especially since it seems that Draco has no problem. It is kind of cool. I know Draco was happy when his dad finally settled down."
By the time he was joined by Lucius who had brought his son and son in law with him Harry was having a far more then civil talk with them. Draco and Blaise were the only Slytherins he had befriended when they were in school. The others had been forced like Draco because of their parents' positions as spies or neutral parties in this in many cases, to pretend to be cold asses. But they seemed to be cool enough and Harry knew they had likely all growing up a lot including himself.
Draco looked at them and kissed Pansy. "You guys better not be giving my future Papa, no I am sorry Daddy I believe it was, here a hard time. Don't chase him off."
Vince laughed when he saw how red in the face Harry went from that. "No we were just giving him the proper Slytherin third degree. See if he is good enough."
Clapping both grooms on the back as he had not seen them since the ceremony really Harry found himself relaxing a bit. He knew he really needed to head to Hogwarts soon to see Luna and Neville. He was reminded there were some friendly classmates beyond his older brothers and Oliver, to see. Not everyone was Hermione and the Weasleys.
