Chapter Thirteen:

Harry didn't go to the Great Hall this morning, he couldn't face knowing if Draco was happy it was him or not so he went to brood on the Quidditch pitch. He heard the sound of footsteps approaching over the grass and turned to face Draco.

"Draco-"

"Don't say a word. You hurt me, you missed your child's first kick and the scans. You rejected me and made me feel used and like nothing. And" Draco's voice got angry with this word before softening as he said "you invoked the right of Courtship for me. That's not something to be taken lightly, did you know that if I refuse this you'd never be able to date me or touch me later on."

Harry nodded solemnly "I know."

"Good" Draco moved forward a few steps and lifted Harry's right hand placing it on his baby bump before leaning in to kiss his lover's lips.

"I accept your Courtship" the blond mumbled against Harry's lips before Harry kissed him more forcefully.

They continued to kiss until Harry felt a pressure against his hand and he pulled away to glance at where his hand was on Draco's stomach.

"I think Bump likes you Harry."

"Wha-"

"Bump just kicked, they like you" Draco smiled softly which made Harry want to kiss him so he did.

"Meet in the Room of Requirements this evening? For a Valentine's dinner?"

"Okay" Draco watched as Harry ran up to the school after a quick kiss and a fast explanation that he had to get things sorted.

Draco walked up to the castle slowly thinking through his decision to accept Harry's Courtship, it couldn't be revoked and he did need to know if it was based on Draco or the baby. After entering the dungeons the blond swerved away from the common room and towards Uncle Sev's office, knocking he waited for the 'enter' then he opened the door and went inside.

Severus' hair was slightly mussed and his lips redder than usual and when he saw Draco he flushed slightly and said "it's Draco."

The blond turned around to see Sirius stepping out from behind a large tapestry, the older man smiled sheepishly as he moved to hug Draco running a hand over the bump.

"How is everything?"

"It's all good with Bump. I- I accepted Harry's Courtship."

"Did you?" Severus asked and the two cousins turned to face him before sitting in front of his desk.

"Yes but I don't know why he did it."

"He did it for you."

Draco looked at Sirius "did he? Or did he do it for the baby?"

"You'll have to ask him, but I think Harry loves you if he didn't he wouldn't have been so hurt nor would he have hurt you as badly."

Biting his lip Draco wasn't sure if he believed Sirius so he turned to his uncle, "why did you give him your permission?"

"Because he makes you happy Draco and that is all I want for you."

Nodding the blond rose "thank you both, I'll let you get back to your, ahem, conversation" he left the room and went to the common room where he stopped next to Pansy and asked her to wake him up at six if he wasn't already awake.

When she nodded and didn't ask for more information Draco retreated to his dorm and lay on his bed falling asleep almost instantly, thanking Merlin that it was a Saturday and that his homework could wait until tomorrow.

Harry waited in the Room of Requirements for Draco to show up and when the blond did Harry rushed forward to kiss him and fuss over him before pulling him over to the small table set up with dinner.

"Are you hungry? Because this can wait, if- if you want it to?"

"Its fine, Harry I'm starved, I slept through lunch" Draco took up his knife and fork and glanced at Harry waiting until the brunet sat down before starting to eat.

They ate in silence and until the food was gone, sipping his water Draco studied Harry "why did you do it?"

"What?"

"Invoke the Courtship."

Harry sat back "I wanted to show you that I could do all those things for you, that I love you and that no matter if you rejected me I would still feel the same way for you. I wanted to talk to you so much and explain-"

"Why didn't you meet me at the Charms room then?"

"I was running late Ginny asked me about Quidditch which means everybody got involved in the conversation and by the time I got there you were in Zabini's arms. I thought you must have been happy with him and I didn't want to ruin that."

"Maybe I was but starting the Courtship would have ruined it."

"Yes but then you'd know I was serious about you and not just jealous." At Draco's raised eyebrow Harry huffed out a slight laugh "okay so I was jealous as well, and I shouldn't have hit him but I will apologise. And Ron will apologise for hitting you in the stomach, did it damage the baby?"

"No he missed, thankfully."

"Good. They know it's mine, Ron and Hermione I mean."

"You told them?"

"Yes when I started the courtship."

"Then I'll have to thank Hermione for the booties, it's the first thing I have for Bump. I'm so unprepared."

"We'll get through Draco and we can ask Sirius and Snape for help."

"Mrs Weasley would be a good source as well."

"You'd ask her?"

"She's the only person either of us know that's had children."

Harry smiled "thank you." After moments of silence Harry spoke softly "why didn't you use the veritasium?"

"Because I wanted an honest answer and I don't want to have to rely on a potion to get one from you."

"Okay." Harry stood and held his hand out to Draco who took it at let himself be pulled up, the table disappeared and the room provided a bed.

"Come to bed with me Draco."

"It's a little early for bed Harry" the blond said coyly.

"I don't want to sleep" the green eyes were half lidded and heavy with desire.

Sighing Draco moved out of Harry's embrace "Harry, we can't have sex."

"Why not?"

"It could make Bump too excited and they might want to come out early and two months is too early."

Moving closer Harry put his arms around the blond again "can I just hold you then?"

They lay down, kissing leisurely before Draco tucked his head into Harry's neck and fell asleep with his lover holding him tightly.
