The day had come for Harry and Severus to take off on their honeymoon and they were both excited to be going. They both had babies on their mind even more and Remus was the only one they had both confided in. He had tried to convince both men to talk to each other for he could see neither his son nor his old friend had told each other, Harry having mentioned they had spoken of it hypothetically months before but had not spoken of it since. Remus thought the two of them would make such amazing parents if they ever got off their asses and told each other they wanted it. Harry was so amazing with Teddy and even Severus was, both with Draco when he was a baby and growing up and now with Teddy as well. He knew his old friend had always wanted kids and now he was married and had a chance.

Harry had promised his dad he would talk to his husband on the topic when they were away. Their love life had definitely improved since Valentine's Day and he had little doubt that they would make proper use of their honeymoon. Lucius and Remus had given the same talk and got the same response from Severus. They both thought the boys needed to come to their senses and stood watching as the two took off. They had been dating for real for over a month ad while it would be time before it would be more, Remus could not deny down the road he could see himself being married to this man and Lucius was thinking the same thing.

Harry and Severus had no idea where they were going and when they opened their eyes they were amazed. It was not until they had seen the note from Lucius waiting for them in the suite behind them that they knew they had been sent to a hotel in Switzerland which was right on the shores of Lake Geneva.

Severus pulled him in for a long tender kiss."Thank you for my birthday gift, I have a feeling I am going to enjoy this more then some potions book."

Harry laughed and drew him into the suite. "I would hope you would prefer a vacation away with your husband then some book."

Severus would have taken Harry to bed right away but they found a picnic basket waiting for them and a note from Lucius about walking trails and some exercise and talk was a good way to get the blood pumping. Harry was thinking of a different way of getting the blood pumping and though Severus was thinking the same he had a feeling he knew what his meddling brother wanted to happen for he had been telling Severus to ask his husband about starting a family. Harry would only have to take a semester off from his training for a baby if that, he was nearly done his practical side and all he would have to do is postpone further animagi.

Harry agreed for the walk and the two of them headed out of the beautiful chalet like hotel and headed out along one of the trails along the beautiful lake. The lake and the mountain were extremely beautiful at this time of spring and while other people may have preferred a tropical beach some where Lucius had known this would suit his brother and Harry far better. As they sat down for the picnic some time later Harry and his husband both agreed Lucius had made a good choice.

Lunch was nearly over and Severus decided to broach it. "I was hoping that maybe we could start trying for a baby, if you're ready. I mean we could wait if......."

Harry cut him off with a long warm kiss. "I want that too. I have been thinking about it since we had that talk over my brother, but more since we made love."

They both realized with a smile they had been both worried about broaching the subject but as they headed back to the chalet they spoke and realized that they were hoping for two or three kids. They would both love a son or two but after Severus had helped raised Draco and Harry had been helping with Teddy, they could picture a little bundle of pink in their arms soon enough. Either way though they hoped it would be for them soon enough. Severus knew that his brother and Remus, not to mention Draco would be happy to hear that the two of them were talking about having a family together.

As he took his husband to bed finally when they got back to the chalet Severus had to remind himself not to cast the contraceptive spell. As they made love for the rest of the day they definitely made a good start on a baby.

Later that night they took a break for dinner out on the balcony of their room Severus smiled. ``I hope you don`t expect me to have a son named James Sirius. ``

Harry shook his head. ``I had thought we could choose a name we both liked for our son or daughter. The baby is both of ours after all. ``

They both thought perhaps an original name which might have special meaning for them or honour their families or loved ones in a way was the better option. They reminded themselves they had just started trying tonight and it would be some time before they would have to worry about names but they both were loving the thought of having their own little one in their arms soon enough. Harry might have been young still but Severus had been waiting so long to start his own family. He had always told himself because he had not found a person he would have wanted to procreate with and it seemed he had just had to wait longer then most for true love but he was glad he had waited for that. He was glad that Harry would be the father of his children and that he was his future.

Severus drew his husband back to bed soon enough and they made love through the night and were awake to watch the sunrise over the mountains together in each others arms out on their balcony. Harry was glad they had waited for their honeymoon till they were truly in love for this was far more special then it would have been before. And though he knew it could take time, he had a secret wish they would get pregnant on this trip for Severus birthday was during it.

Severus was feeling the same way as his husband. "It would be the perfect birthday gift if we were to conceive this week."
