Chapter 6:

Draco roamed around the school the next day after being let out of the infirmary. He couldn't stop thinking about Harry being his mate, and what his father said about him being close to him when they were younger. He wished he could remember back then, he would have loved to know his real dad and having Harry as friend.

He wished his dad was never taken from him or Harry from Severus. As he was lost in thought he didn't realize someone was walking directly in front of him and slammed into the person's back, sending him landing on his ass, with his head spinning and his stomach in pain. He knew right then who the person was and tried to even out his breathing, trying not to pass out yet again.

His father told him that since he knew what was happening he could control his actions. He took deep breaths and stood from the floor, brushing off his clothes before looking up at Harry.

"Malfoy, watch where you are going. The way you keep falling around me one would think you like me." Draco froze at the words and couldn't help but look right into Harry's eyes, he was hoping he would find some kind of kindness there, but none was found.

"Sorry. I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking." Draco stated as he went to walk around Harry.

"Did you just say sorry to me Malfoy?" Harry asked making Draco stop in his tracks and hang his head.

"Yes."

"Are you feeling alright?" Draco snapped his head around hearing slight concern coming from Harry.

"Yeah, I have to go meet someone. I'm sorry again for knocking into you." Draco nodded his head to Harry and walked away as fast as he could, the pains in his stomach were increasing from being so close to him for this long.

He finally came to his destination and ran into the room without knocking. His breathing was slowly coming back to normal and his pains were slowly subsiding. He slid his body down the door and rested his head on his knees.

"Draco..Draco what's wrong?" He lifted his head to see the concerned face of Severus looking down on him.

"I just ran into Harry in the hall. I didn't pass out but I hurt, Uncle." Draco replied feeling himself being lifted from the floor and carried to the couch.

"Well I have some good news for you. I believe I found James." Draco snapped his head around and looked at Severus, trying to smile.

"Really. Where?"

"Dumbledore bought a house out in the country around the same time that he took James and Harry. There are tons of wards around the land and I think he may be holding him there, if..if he is still alive Draco." He heard the doubt in his Uncles voice but he had to hold on to the hope that he would see his dad.

"Can we go get him?" Draco asked.

"Remus and I are going to go tonight and see what we can do. Don't get to excited about it, we could find nothing there." Draco nodded his head before he drifted off into sleep once again.

When he awoke several hours later he heard a couple of voices and sat up to see who it was. He saw Remus, Lucius and Severus sitting around the room, whispering.

"I have the potion ready for him to take when he awakes. It will help so he won't feel the pain around Harry any longer." He heard Severus saying as he placed his feet on the floor.

"Alright, make sure he takes it Severus, Please." Lucius stated sounding worried. "I know Harry is his mate, but isn't there anything we could do to change that?" Draco shot up off the couch and rushed over to where the men were talking.

"No. Please. I know he may never accept me as his mate but I want him to be." He pleaded as he knelt down in front of Lucius.

"Why would you want to put your self though that pain Draco? Wouldn't it be better to find someone else that would love you?" Draco was looking into Lucius eyes and couldn't believe he could suggest such a thing.

"I have always felt strongly about Harry, and this just proves why I have felt this pull to him for years. I don't want to loose that. As long as he finds happiness then I'll be happy just watching from the side." Draco knew he was fooling himself into thinking this way but he couldn't let them do something to jeopardize what he may possibly be able to have with Harry.

"Fine, but if it becomes a life and death thing for you Draco I will have Severus find a way. You have to at least take this potion Severus made, it will help so you won't be in pain, just remember to take it every morning." Draco so wanted to say he wasn't his father so he didn't have the right, but he would never hurt Lucius with those words.

"Now I think you need to head back to your dorm and rest. We are going out to look for James in a little while" Severus stated walking Draco to the door after his fathers gave him hugs.

The next morning Draco was sitting at his table for breakfast when the doors opened up and four people walked into the room. Standing there right before his eyes was his dad. He couldn't believe it. His mouth dropped open but he couldn't find the words to say, to worried he wasn't supposed to let anyone know.

Then Harry stood at the Gryffindor table and ran over to where the men were standing. Draco knew this wasn't going to end well and tried to make it over there, but the pains in his stomach prevented him from getting to close to Harry, he could have kicked himself in the ass for forgetting the potion that morning.

"Dad? Is that really you?' Draco noticed tears running down Harry's face as he asked that question. James looked over Harry for a moment before turning to Remus.

"Is that Draco? He doesn't look like I imagined him." Draco saw Harry's mouth drop for a moment before he spoke again.

"No I'm Harry. Your son." James turned back to Harry for a moment then to Severus.

Draco saw Severus shake his head, silently telling James not to say anything about the matter to Harry. Draco walked over slowly, holding his breath as his stomach pain grew worse.

"Draco!" He heard as he slumped down to the ground.

"Dad." He quietly said as he clenched his stomach.

"Get Harry away quick." He heard Severus say and saw Remus move Harry back to his table, the whole time he heard Harry asking why his dad asked if he was Draco and why Draco was calling James dad.

"Draco? My god it is you." Draco felt the pain slowly leave, making him able to look up into his dads face and smile. He felt tears slowly stream down his face as he stood up and was brought into the mans arms.

"I have been so scared something happened to you. I am so glad you found Remus. I also knew Lucius would be able to take good care of you." James was rambling on and on but Draco didn't mind at all.

"Where were you?" Draco asked

"We will explain everything later right now we have the Headmaster to deal with." Severus said as he reached back over to them. "I told Harry to meet down in my rooms later and we will tell him everything we should have told him already. It is time I am reunited with my son."

"I am sorry" James started to tell his friend but Severus held his hand up stopping him.

"Head Master Dumbledore." Was heard from behind them, making everyone in the Great Hall look. There stood several Aurors, staring up to the head table at a very shocked looking Head Master.

"You are hear by arrested for charges of kidnapping and child endangerment." The Aurors stated.

Dumbledore tried to make a run for it but was immediately detained before he reached the side door. Draco sat in his dads arms while everything was happening, just happy his family was finally whole.
