Chapter 9
Harry awoke a couple hours later and as he sat up, he noticed his glasses were off and he was in one of the hospital beds. Reaching over, Harry grabbed his glasses and slipped them on. As he did so, the room came into clearer focus as well as Healer Raiden.
"Urgh What happened?" Harry asked as he rubbed his head.
"You Mr. Potter fainted when I told you that you were pregnant" Raiden says
"Th...That's not possible, I'm a guy" Harry said his eyes wide as he looked at Raiden.
"The results are clear, Mr. Potter you are around three months pregnant" Raiden says.
"Will I have a complete 9 month pregnancy?" Harry asked as he ran his fingers over his stomach.
Raiden shook his head, "No whenever a male wizard gets pregnant, they usually give birth around month six to seven"
"You mean other male wizards have gotten pregnant before?" Harry asked as he stood up and stretched his body.
"Of course, its just rare" Raiden says.
Harry nodded before leaving St. Mungos and apparating back to the burrow. As Harry walked inside to his and Draco's bedroom he was automatically tackled to the ground, Draco's lips attacking his neck.
"Mmm not that I'm complaining, but would you mind not tackling me to the ground anymore…at least not for a while" Harry says looking up at Draco.
"Sorry love, I woke up and when I didn't know where you were I kind of freaked" Draco says nuzzling into Harry's neck.
"I'm sorry, I had someplace to go and I didn't want to wake you" Harry says.
"It's alright Harry, Come on lets go back to bed" Draco says.
Harry nodded as he and Draco slipped back into their bed and fell asleep in each others arms.
The following month passed by rather quickly and Draco noticed something strange about Harry. He noticed an odd smell that surrounded his mate but he wasn't sure what it was.
Sighing to himself, Draco pushed the thought out of his mind as he wrapped his arms around his mate's waist and held him close to his body.
'It's time' Harry thought to himself as he waited outside in the garden for Draco to come out. When he had woken up, Harry wrote a quick note to Draco asking the blonde to come out to the garden after he was done with his morning routine. Taking a breath, Harry lightly ran his fingers over his growing stomach, so far the only people that he told that he was with child was Remus and Mrs. Weasley. Nonetheless their reactions were a mixture of shock and awe.
-Beginning of Flashback-
Harry couldn't take it anymore! He was sick of the morning sickness, of the weird cravings and all of it. He wanted to tell Draco but he wasn't sure how his mate would respond. Harry had to tell someone about this, He just didn't know who. Biting his bottom lip, Harry walked into the kitchen of the burrow to see Remus and Mrs. Weasley talking quietly as Mrs. Weasley prepared lunch.
Looking up from chopping some potatoes, Mrs. Weasley noticed Harry standing there.
"Oh Harry come on over here, Lunch is almost ready" Mrs. Weasley said.
Nodding, Harry walked over and sat down beside Remus. As if reading his mind Remus turned to Harry and asked:
"Harry is something bothering you? You look like you've got a lot on your mind"
Taking a breath, Harry looked at Remus and Molly as he said "Well last month I went to St. Mungos to find out why I was throwing up all the time and Healer Raiden gave me the reason why".
"And what was his diagnosis" Remus asks. His light blue eyes meeting Harry's.
Harry took another breath before saying "I…I'm Pregnant with Draco's child".
Hearing this, Mrs. Weasley and Remus both gasped for this was not what they had expected.
"H...How can you be pregnant Harry? After all you are a male". Remus asked.
"That's what I asked Healer Raiden and he said that other male wizards have gotten pregnant before and that its just really rare" Harry says as he rested his right hand on his stomach.
"Have you told Draco yet?" Mrs. Weasley asked as she finished prepping lunch.
"No not yet, I'm trying to figure out how to tell him" Harry says
.-End of Flashback-
Harry sighed as he leaned back against the tree. His thoughts were interrupted as Draco had sat down beside him and wrapped his arms around Harry's waist.
"So what did you want to tell me" Draco asked as he rested his head on Harry's shoulder.
Harry bit his bottom lip before taking Draco's hand and placing it on his stomach as he turned to face his mate. At first Draco was confused as to why Harry had placed his hand on his stomach.
"Drake…I'm Pregnant" Harry said softly as he looked at the blonde Slytherin. As Harry said that he was pregnant, Draco's eyes widened and his usually pale skin, paled even more.
"Y…You're what?" Draco asked.
"I'm pregnant, I'm about 4 months and from what Healer Raiden told me, I'll be giving birth around the 6-7 month mark" Harry said.
Draco was shocked. He didn't even know that male wizards could get pregnant! All in all the news was a lot for him to take in.
"Drake I know this is a lot to take in, So I'll leave you alone for a few days so you can get accustomed to this" Harry said before standing up and heading back inside the Burrow.
'I…I'm going to be a father' Draco thought to himself as leaned back against the tree.
'What if the baby is going to be like me?
''Will I be a good father?'
All these thoughts ran through Draco's mind as he closed his eyes, as he took a few moments to imagine himself as a father.
-Draco's Imagining-
Draco was sitting outside of a nice two story house, the house painted a dark crimson outlined in gold, the famous Gryffindor house colors. Currently he was reading the daily prophet as he watched a little boy about 3 years old with platinum blonde hair and emerald green eyes skim the grass of the backyard with a toy broomstick. As he watched, Draco noticed that there was nothing wolfish about the boy. Seeing this put Draco's worry aside about the chances of the child inheriting the wolfish qualities.
-End Draco's Imagining-
Sighing to himself, Draco stood up and walked back into the burrow. Upon entering the kitchen, Draco saw Ron having lunch with Ginny and Hermione.
"Hey guys where's Harry?" Draco asked as he walked over.
Glancing up from his sandwich, Ron said "Went upstairs to your guy's room, looked like he was upset about something".
Draco bit his bottom lip before heading upstairs to his and Harry's room.
As he walked inside, Draco saw Harry sitting on the bed his arms wrapped around his legs as one hand rested on his pregnant stomach.
"Harry what's wrong?" Draco asked as he walked over and sat down beside his mate.
"Drake, I..I love you and this child that I'm carrying, But I'm worried about what You-Know-Who would do to you or the child if he ever found out". Harry says.
Understanding at once, Draco kissed Harry's forehead before whispering into his ear, "Love I want you to listen to this song I heard one day" Draco says as he flicks his wand making a stereo appear on the desk.
Draco stood up and walked over and pressed play. At once Harry heard the music start to play with the lyrics following close behind.
You've been here in the dark for way too long
Do you remember how we felt in the sunlight?
You're still smiling through the pain your hiding in
But everyone can see that something's just not right
You've been waiting for so long, so long
You've been looking for some way to hold on
I know you feel so far away
So far away from better days
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
When it gets too hard to take
I'll be the light that leads the way
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
I'll hold onto you
You've been waiting for so long, so long
You've been looking for some way to hold on
I know you feel so far away
So far away from better days
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
When it gets too hard to take
I'll be the light that leads the way
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
I'll hold onto you
Take one step
Just one step forward
One step
One step
I know you feel so far away
So far away from better days
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
When it gets too hard to take
I'll be the light that leads the way
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
I know you feel so far away
So far away from better days
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
When it gets too hard to take
I'll be the light that leads the way
As you look for a way out
I'll hold onto you
I'll hold onto you
"Th...that was amazing Drake" Harry said as Draco walked back over and sat down beside him.
"No matter how dark you feel like your life is, or is becoming, I swear to you that I will be the light to brighten your world". Draco says.
Harry nodded before he laid down and fell asleep. As he did so Draco wrapped his arms around his mate's waist and held him close.
