The weekend of Halloween brought the first game of the quidditch season and it was between Gryffindor and Slytherin as it often was. Harry wondered how Lucius would react to the game. His son was on the opposite team of the boy he kept saying he wanted to marry.
As Harry came back from changing that morning he found Lucius had woken and was out of bed. Lucius came to kiss him. "Good luck my little lion."
Harry was surprised to hear him say that. "I would think you'd be jinxing me, your son is on the other team."
Lucius actually laughed softly. "I happen to think the best team will win and I will be happy with who ever wins. Just don't tell my son I said that."
Harry smiled and actually relaxed into his arms and he knew Lucius was actually sincere in that. He also knew that Lucius had a point about Draco. Draco definitely would not be happy to hear his dad was cheering for anyone but the snakes.
Lucius kissed him along the neck. "I will be with the teachers so I don't have to worry who to sit with. I kind of wish you'd loose so I don't loose you to a party."
Harry knew he had not used his free night that week; actually he had not used it at all yet. "I think I could be persuaded to come to our bed for a celebration."
Lucius liked the sounds of that. "I think that sounds like some fun, and if by some small chance you loose, I cam cheer you up."
Harry pulled away from him. "Well it might not be a hard win for Draco if I don't head down to the field, as I might miss the game."
Lucius seized him for one more long drawn out kiss before he released Harry and Harry slipped out of the rooms and headed for the pitch. He had to admit that Lucius' honest words that morning of supporting Harry in the game as well as Draco seemed to hit a note with him. He went into the change rooms and reminded himself he needed to get his head into the game. He and Draco were brothers but they had sworn they'd still be as competitive on the field as ever and Harry had every intention of whipping his brother's ass.
When he was finishing his pep talk Ron groaned. "You are as bad as Angie. You know we need a captain who is mute I think."
Katie clapped Harry on the back. "Don't listen to him. Besides, you might have been as bad as Angie but none of them know how lucky they are not to have Oliver."
Harry smiled and agreed with her. "You know I can still remember the twins timing his speeches and taking bets on how much longer they possibly could get."
Katie turned to the others. "You know Oliver has been offering him help. If you don't watch out I will encourage Harry to send to Oliver for some pep talk advice."
That of course was met with groans from everyone and as Harry led them out of the dressing rooms and towards the field, and Harry heard some of them speaking about mutiny and locking him in a locker, and hexes. She hid laughter for he knew they used to say the same thing to Oliver behind his back as well. He knew as long as the team was winning, they'd complain but they wouldn't follow through on any of their threats.
When they hit the field Draco came close to him before the whistle blew. "Still brothers but let the best team win." Draco called.
Harry nodded and smiled. "Let the best team win big brother."
There was no doubt in Harry's mind who the best team was for while the snakes could beat the badgers and the eagles and held their own against the lions because they tended to play dirty, When it came to skill and moves, the lions had no real competition, even with all the new players. Harry kept his eye out for the snitch but also watched his team and felt such pride in seeing them do some of the moves they had worked on.
About an hour and a half into the game Harry was growing restless and decided to try out a move he remembered from the world cup back before his fourth year, and getting his brother's attention he went into a dive, looking as if he saw the snitch.
Sure enough Draco dove with him. "The snitch is mine." Harry shouted at him.
Draco turned to him but before they got just above the ground Draco realized something. "What the hell?"
Harry smirked as he pulled out of the dive jut above the ground so that his feet just skimmed the top of the grass but he heard the crash as Draco was unable to pull out from the dive and slammed into the ground. Harry hoped his brother was not to badly hurt but he spotted the snitch for real and without any competition he flew right at it and moments after his team upped the score 120-70 in their favour, his caught the snitch and ended the game.
Harry was laughing and smiling when his team mates came to hug him and celebrate the win when Draco came over. "The Wronski feint? Should have known."
Harry laughed and pulled his brother into a hug. "No hard feelings right big brother? We did say best team wins. You know you're invited to our party."
Draco smirked but it turned into a smile. "You're right, we said best team and you won fair and square. If you mean it I will be at your party with you tonight."
Harry smiled and nodded. He knew it might be odd to invite the loosing seeker to the celebration party but Draco might have been a snake and their competition but he was also Harry's brother and that would not change. He was in an incredible mood as he headed off for the change rooms.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Harry's amazing mood continued when he came out of the change rooms and found two people waiting to congratulate him on his win. He had not known his dads were planning on coming to his game and he was so happy that they were there for him.
Sirius pulled him into a bear hug. "That was incredible cub. That was as good as Krum or Wronski himself. I must say I kind of liked seeing Draco crash."
Remus slugged his husband in the shoulder. "Play nice, that is our son's honorary brother you're talking about. But your dad is right Harry, we're so proud of you."
Harry laughed and accepted their congratulations and he was surprised when they told him that they were taking him into town for lunch and to celebrate his win. They had already told Lucius and they promised he'd be home for dinner and to attend the celebration party for his team.
Remus smiled. "We have missed you so much since our wedding and we have something to tell you as well as to celebrate your victory."
Harry looked at them back and forth. "You have news for me? What is it?"
Neither man would tell him and said that he had to wait until they got to town and could toast the victory and the news over lunch. He wouldn't let them off and when they finally sat down at the Three Broomsticks he would not let them a second of piece after ordering their food, until they told him.
Remus shared a smile with his husband. "Harry I know you consider the Weasleys and Draco to be brothers but have you ever wanted to be a big brother?"
Harry nodded. "I guess I kind of am to Ginny or was until this year but yes, I mean I would love to be. But wait are you guys telling me what I think you are?"
Sirius nodded. "Remus and I found out we're expecting a little brother or sister for you Harry. It seems our romantic honeymoon in Bordeaux worked the magic."
In reality the couple had been trying all summer for they knew while it always took time with men, the fact that Remus was a werewolf would make it harder. There was no risk Remus would pass the curse on but except with another werewolf, conception was hard.
Harry smiled at Sirius. "I guess I don't need to ask who is the pregnant one between you? I assume you have paternity leave or something from work."
Sirius nodded. "I do but I will be on desk work until my eighth month. I'd like to spend the paternity leave when your brother or sister has come into the world."
Harry jumped up and hugged the two of them. "This is so amazing. I have always wanted real sisters and brothers. I am so happy you guys are having kids."
Remus kissed his cheek. "You know for one moment this doesn't change anything. You are still as much our child as that little on in your dad over there."
Harry nodded. "I know dad. And I know that the baby and I don't share any blood like Draco and the Weasleys don't but this baby is really my sibling."
They understood what he meant by that. They knew as much as he loved Draco and the Weasleys like brothers, that the bond he had with this baby would be so much stronger because it was the child of the two men who were his fathers. There was definitely much to toast to and be happy for over lunch that afternoon. He couldn't believe in the end of June he would have a little brother or sister. This was such an amazing gift.
As they left lunch and went shopping Remus spoke up. "I see both Weasleys are still on the team. Can I take it that you have made some peace with them?"
Harry shook his head. "No. We don't speak except during practice. I just couldn't let their horrible attitudes, hurt the team. They are two of my best players."
Sirius pulled him into a hug. "You know you are definitely growing up cub and we're proud of you. Those two will come to their senses eventually."
Harry wasn't so sure but he shrugged. "Ginny still looks at me even in practice like I purposely led her on and stomped on her, and Ron is right by her side on that."
Remus squeezed his arm. "Perhaps we just need to find you a boyfriend and when she sees you happy and in love, she might come to her senses about all of this."
Sirius agreed with his husband. "Or find a boyfriend for her, or Ron a life of his own. I kind of think being dumped from the team would have served them right."
Remus reminded his husband that Harry was captain and he had made the decision that was right for his team. They did a bit of shopping including some treats for him to take back to his team and Harry and Remus took Sirius into the baby shop. Harry bought his fathers a little blanket and teddy bear to celebrate the news. He couldn't think when they headed back and he off to his party with his team, of a more perfect day then this.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Though Harry bad been tempted to have a sleep over in Gryffindor even if Ron was shooting him daggers and Ginny refused to come ten feet from him, Harry remembered his promise to Lucius that he would celebrate with him as well. It was his right to have a free night but he kept to his word.
Lucius looked up when he came in. "I was wondering if I would see you tonight. You have not used your free night once this month and the party..."
Harry actually cut him off with a slight kiss. "I told you I'd celebrate with you tonight for cheering for me and your son. I wasn't about to go back on my word."
Lucius pulled Harry down into his lap. "I hope you had a good time with your friends and with your dads this afternoon. I was surprised they were able to come."
Harry fought through a moan as Lucius had latched to his earlobe, his hands already at the buttons of Harry's top. "They had news. I'm going to be a brother."
Lucius pulled away momentarily. "I am a bit surprised but I wish those two luck. I guess since I have every intention of more kids at my age, it should not be a shock."
Harry knew that Lucius had not given up on his plan to make Harry fall in love and agree to marry him and give him kids after graduation. Harry knew it was likely his siblings would go to school with their nieces and nephews but Harry still did not believe those siblings would ever be Malfoys. As Lucius lowered him down onto the couch and continued his attack on Harry's neck as he reached for his wand to remove their clothes and cast a spell, for a moment Harry thought about his fathers' suggestion that he find a boyfriend as a way to get Ginny off his case. He had one, in a way he guessed, just not one he'd be flaunting to any Weasley.
Lucius pulled back as he had reached Harry's nipples. "I can move us to the bed if you'd be more comfortable."
At that point Harry was already sporting a nice hard erection and begging for release. He wrapped a leg around Lucius to pull him back down. "Here."
Lucius smiled down on him. "What ever you want my little lion."
Harry and Lucius were both so lost in the moment that neither of them noticed when there was a knock at the painting or when someone walked into the apartment until a voice rang through the room.
"What the hell are you doing?"
