A/N: Hey, so I'm glad you all liked the last chapter. Sad. This story is almost over but there is a bright side at the end. :P Anyways, I hope you all like this chapter too and please review. Thanks. :]

Oh, I've gotten asked how it's possible for Harry to be pregnant and carry the baby. It's because of the potion that Severus made, the Impregnation Potion. When Harry took it, it created a womb for the baby and it just took some magic from Harry and Severus while they had sex to get pregnant. I can't explain the finer details as I don't exactly know. All I know is that I made it so that the potion allowed Harry to get pregnant. :P

Warnings: Mentions of MPREG, a bit more detailed, but not much.

Five Months Later

"Dad," Teddy said, irritated with his stubborn father. Honestly, what was so difficult about just agreeing when you knew someone was right? "You are eight and a half months pregnant."

"Really? I wouldn't have guessed," Harry said sarcastically, looking down at his large, rounded stomach. The pregnancy had severely shortened Harry's temper.

"Dad, you could have the baby any day. You need to go on leave for a while," Teddy said. "I'm surprised Uncle Jack, Uncle Matt, and Papa let you work so long."

"I can be persuasive, especially with your father," Harry said and Teddy shuddered.

"Okay, gross," Teddy said and Harry smirked at his son. "Please stop working, Dad. You need to rest for the baby. We all know that it's hard for you to go up and down all the stairs every day."

"I'm fine, Teddy," Harry said, waving his wand and changing the bed clothes of the bed recently vacated by his latest patient.

"You may be fine but that doesn't mean you don't need to rest," Teddy said. "Dad, men aren't built to carry children. The baby is drawing on your magic and energy and you need to rest because of it."

"Teddy—"

"No. As much as we all want the baby, we don't want to lose you," Teddy said, looking at his father pleadingly.

Harry looked into his son's eyes that just happened to turn into the green that he himself sported and sighed. "Haven't we told you that you're not allowed to use your powers to make us agree with you?"

Teddy just grinned.

"Let me go tell Matt," Harry said, walking over to the office where Matt was doing some paperwork. "Matt."

"Hey, Harry, what's up? Need help?"

"No, I'm going on leave for a while. I've been told that I should have quite some time ago," Harry said, not sounding happy about having to stop working.

"Yes, you should have," Matt nodded. "Harry, why are you so adamant about not going on leave?"

"Because I need to work, I need to feel like I'm doing something and helping. If I just stay home and don't do anything, I'm going to feel useless," Harry told him.

"You can still do things, Harry. Just not things that involve you going up several flights of stairs every day or standing on your feet for twelve hours a day," Matt said.

"It's not twelve hours and it's not every day," Harry argued.

"Sometimes it's twelve hours and there are only two days when you don't come in," Matt said and Harry sighed.

"Fine, I work a lot," Harry said.

"Just go on leave for a bit, Harry. Help your son with school, help Severus with things, help Jack mark papers. You don't have to just sit in your rooms and do nothing," Matt said.

Harry nodded and smiled at Matt. "Thanks. I'll see you later, Matt." Leaving the office, Harry found Teddy sitting on one of the beds waiting for him. "Okay, let's go, terror," he said and Teddy jumped to his feet. Putting an arm around Teddy's shoulders, they left the infirmary and headed down to the first floor to their rooms. As they walked through the corridors and talked, it occurred to Harry, not for the first time, how different Teddy acted with him and Severus. Most teenagers would spend as much time as possible away from their parents but Teddy never did. He happily spent time with them and always spent at least one night a week in their rooms. Times when he didn't have class, he would sometimes visit the infirmary or the headmaster's office just to visit with one of his parents, sometimes bring Victoire and Daniel with him so they could see their uncles.

"Harry."

He was broken from his thoughts when he heard Severus' voice and he looked up, realizing that he and Teddy had arrived home and were standing in the sitting room.

"Shouldn't you be working?" Severus asked.

"I should be but Teddy convinced me to go on leave for a while," Harry said, moving over to sit on the sofa with his husband.

"Did he now?" Severus said, looking up at Teddy who nodded and grinned, sitting down on the lounge chair. "Have many of us not been telling you the same thing for the past month?"

"I guess I had to hear it from a child," Harry said and Severus rolled his eyes, even as he put his arm around Harry.

"Regardless of what convinced you, I'm glad you listened," Severus said. "You need rest."

"I have to have something to do though," Harry said. "You know I can't just sit here in our rooms for the next however long."

"I know that, love, and I'll find things for you to do," Severus said.

"Good."

"Have you found out if you're having a boy or a girl?" Teddy asked. As he had promised, he had been beside Harry throughout the entire pregnancy. He had gone to every exam and sonogram and he had even been there with Severus when the baby kicked for the first time.

"No, we haven't and we aren't going to. We want it to be a surprise," Harry said, leaning on Severus' shoulder, feeling very tired all of a sudden. Well, it wasn't exactly a new thing. The baby really was drawing heavily on his magic.

"Aww," Teddy whined, crossing his arms and sitting back on the chair.

Harry and Severus chuckled. "The baby is kicking though if you want to feel again," Harry said and Teddy ran to the sofa. He sat on Harry's other side and placed his hand on Harry's rounded stomach. He smiled and laughed slightly when he felt his baby sibling kick his palm and Harry winced. "Little too hard," he muttered and Teddy laughed again. Severus smiled at them and kissed the top of Harry's head, placing his own hand on his husband's stomach. As the baby always did when its other father was near, it pushed out gently on his hand as if trying to touch him and know its other father.

Harry smiled at them tiredly and allowed his eyes to close as he lay on Severus.

Eight Weeks Later

"I think I would've preferred being pregnant longer," Harry said, panting through the pain as he grasped Severus' hand tightly.

"You were already three weeks overdue, Harry. It's time," Severus said calmly, stroking back Harry's damp hair.

"I don't bloody care! At least it wasn't excruciating pain!" Harry said angrily, breathing through another contraction. "Get this monster out of me!" he yelled.

"That monster is our child," Severus said, amused.

"Exactly!" Harry snapped.

"Jack, how much longer?" Severus asked, watching as Harry collapsed onto the pillows in his moment free of pain.

"You still have a couple hours," Jack said. "Even though we're doing a C-Section because you can't give birth naturally, we still have to wait until the contractions are a certain amount of time apart."

"Bloody hell," Harry groaned.

"Just breathe, Harry," Jack said, returning to his task of getting everything ready for the birth.

"I sincerely hope you know that I hate you," Harry said, glaring up at Severus.

"I'm sure you do," Severus said.

"Don't patronize me, you bastard," Harry said, gripping his hand tightly as he passed another contraction.

Three Hours Later

"GET IT OUT!" Harry screamed.

"Just a little longer, Harry," Jack said, pulling a floating tray closer.

"If you say I have to be like this any longer, I swear to Merlin and every other deity in the world that I will murder you with my own hands!" Harry threatened.

"I give you my permission," Jack said with a smile, going over the tools to make sure they were sanitized and safe to use.

"Severus, if you ever come near me again, you are going to lose something very precious!" Harry yelled, holding his husband's hand in a death grip. Severus had long since cast a Numbing Charm on his hand.

"That's fine, love, just keep breathing," Severus said, smoothing back the soaked hair and laying a damp cloth on Harry's forehead.

"You did this to me," Harry said, obviously too exhausted to yell anymore.

"It was a joint process," Severus said.

"We are never having another child. If we do, you're carrying it," Harry said.

"I'd be happy to."

"Don't be a bastard, you jerk," Harry said, glaring at him.

Severus was saved from responding when Jack spoke up.

"All right, you're ready, Harry," Jack said.

"Thank God," Harry said.

Jack waved his wand and a white sheet cut off Harry's vision so he couldn't see what Jack was doing on his stomach. It was quiet except for Harry's heavy breathing, Severus' quiet encouraging words, and shuffling from Jack. Suddenly he felt his stomach go numb and couldn't feel anything.

"Just keep breathing, Harry," Jack said from behind the sheet.

Severus glanced at Jack to see him pressing the blade of the scalpel to Harry's stomach. He turned back to Harry with a smile and caressed his sweat-covered cheek. "You're doing well, love."

"I'm sick of being pregnant," Harry muttered and Severus chuckled.

"It's almost over," Severus said.

"How's Teddy?" Harry asked.

"Out in the hall with everyone else," Severus said and Harry nodded. A few more moments passed before a loud cry broke the air, letting them know that Jack had been successful in delivering the baby.

"Clean the baby up, Matt," Jack said, handing the blanket covered bundle to Matt who went behind another curtain. Jack turned back to Harry and began to close his stomach. "Your stomach will be numb for a little while still," he told Harry as he banished the screen and was able to see Harry again who nodded.

"Is the baby okay?" Harry asked.

"He's perfectly healthy," Matt said with a smile as he walked over with a small blue bundle. He looked at Harry, asking a silent question.

"I've carried him for the last nine months," Harry said and Matt nodded, walking around the bed to Severus and gently transferred the baby to the man's arms.

"Here is your son," Matt said and moved to stand next to Jack at the end of Harry's bed, watching Severus hold his new baby.

Severus had been slightly nervous when Matt handed him the baby. Once he had him settled though, he looked down at his son. There was a bit of black hair on the baby's head and Severus knew it would be just like Harry's except thinner. To his relief, the baby had Harry's nose and he lightly traced it with the tip of his finger. The action caused the baby's eyes to open and Severus saw that they were the usual bright blue but the blue appeared to be a bit darker than usual and he had a feeling his son would have his dark eyes. The baby looked up at him with wide eyes for a few moments before reaching out and grasping Severus' finger in one tiny hand.

"Do we have a name?" Jack interrupted the bonding moment. Severus glanced up and at Harry giving a nod.

Harry smiled. "Caleb Alexander Potter-Snape."

"Godparents?" Jack asked, writing down the baby's name.

"Luna and Sebastian," Harry said and looked at Severus.

Severus sighed. "Fred and George."

Jack looked at him in surprise. "You talked him into Fred and George?" he said to Harry.

Harry shook his head with a grin. "No. Fred and George was his choice."

"Merlin," Jack breathed, writing down the two sets of godparents. "The things you see in this job," he muttered and Harry laughed while Severus sent him a glare before looking back at Caleb. Jack shook his head as he finished filling out the papers necessary for a birth.

Severus walked over to the bed and sat down on the edge. "Here," he said quietly and carefully gave their son to Harry.

Harry gazed down at Caleb as he settled in his arms. The baby quickly reached for Harry's finger as he had Severus' and Harry smiled. "He'll have your eyes," he said, looking up at Severus who nodded. "Severus?"

"Yes?"

"I never asked before. Why did you choose Fred and George?"

"Because as ridiculous as they sometimes are, they are responsible and would take good care of Caleb. Besides Bill, they were the only Weasleys to stay by you so that says something about their character. Also, they wouldn't be doing it alone. Everyone else would be there to help," Severus told him.

Harry smiled. "I love you, Sev'rus."

Severus kissed his forehead. "I love you too. You should get some rest."

"All right," Harry said, looking down at Caleb, making no move to go to sleep.

Severus snorted slightly and proceeded to take Caleb from Harry's arms much to the younger man's disappointment. "Sleep," he said, settling Caleb into the crook of his arm.

Harry sighed. "Fine," he said and lay down under the blankets.

Severus leaned down and kissed his forehead again. "We'll see you in the morning, love."

"G'night," Harry said and let his eyes close. It wasn't long before he was asleep.

Severus smiled at his now sleeping husband and sat in the transfigured chair that sat beside the bed. He quickly flicked his wand and changed the chair to a comfortable rocking chair and sat down with Caleb still awake in his arms. The baby had grasped his finger one again and was staring up at him with wide eyes again. Smiling down at his son, he began rocking back and forth to try and put his son to sleep. He knew that he had been very excited the past nine months to finally meet his son and he had felt himself fall in love with the unborn child the minute Harry had told him he was pregnant. However, now, as he held Caleb and looked down at him, he knew that he loved this child more than he ever thought possible, just like how he felt about Harry. He watched with a small smile as Caleb's eyes began to close, flickering open a couple times before they fell shut and stayed that way.

"Uncle Bill," Teddy said, turning to his surrogate uncle who was flipping through a magazine.

"What is it, Teddy?" Bill asked, looking at the fifteen year old.

"Can we go see Dad and Papa?"

"Let me check," Bill said, getting up and walking into the infirmary. He returned a few moments later and nodded at Bill with a smile. "Come on, kid."

Following his uncle, Teddy walked over to the bed where his dad was sleeping and where his papa was sleeping in a rocking chair. There was a small bassinet where his new baby sibling was sleeping.

"They had a boy?" Teddy said as he looked down at the tiny person.

"Yes, they did," Jack nodded, walking over to them.

"Am I allowed to know his name?" Teddy asked.

"I should think so. You are his brother after all," Jack said. "They named him Caleb Alexander."

"Caleb," Teddy repeated quietly, gazing down at his baby brother with a smile. "It suits him."

Severus and Harry woke up at around the same time and were slightly surprised to see their other son in the infirmary. Teddy was sitting in a chair on the other side of Harry's bed but he wasn't alone. In his arms he held Caleb who he was feeding a bottle while quietly talking to his little brother. They watched him for a while before looking at each other with a smile.

"Good morning, Teddy," Severus said as he helped Harry sit up comfortably.

Teddy started, looking up at his parents and flushing. "Oh, morning. Uh, sorry, but you both looked so tired and Caleb was awake and beginning to fuss and—"

"You have nothing to apologize for, Teddy," Harry said.

"Indeed. We are pleased to see you bonding and interacting with Caleb," Severus said.

"He is my brother," Teddy said, looking down at Caleb briefly who was still suckling away at his milk.

"Have you seen Jack?" Severus asked, getting out of his chair.

"Office, I think," Teddy said.

Severus nodded and kissed the top of Teddy's head as he passed, heading to the office.

"Who told you his name?" Harry asked Teddy.

"Uncle Jack," Teddy said. "Uncle Bill brought me in here last night after you and Papa fell asleep for a little bit."

"Ah, Harry," Jack said as he was led from the office by Severus. "Severus told me you were awake. You just have a couple potions to take this morning. You should be free to go around lunchtime."

"Potions?" Harry said, still watching his two sons out the corner of his eye fondly.

"Pain Reliever and some post-birth nutrients," Jack said.

Harry sighed and nodded. He really hated the infirmary…when he wasn't the Healer. Severus and Jack smirked at Harry and they both laughed when Harry glared at them. Still scowling at them, Harry took the two potions that Jack handed to him. He felt a slight pain he didn't know he had in his stomach disappear.

Jack waved his wand once over Harry and nodded at the results. "You'll be free to go in just a few hours."

"And Caleb?" Harry asked, looking back to Teddy who had finished feeding his brother and was now smiling and talking happily to the baby. Caleb was waving his hands at Teddy and smiling widely at the attention he was receiving.

"That child is going to be more spoiled than anyone," Severus said as he watched Teddy and Caleb's interactions.

"You're going to have a part in his spoiling and you know it," Harry said, grinning at him.

"To answer your question," Jack interrupted. "Caleb is perfectly healthy and apparently very happy. You can bring him home when you leave."

"Thank you, Jack," Harry smiled at him and Jack waved his words off.

A/N: So there it is. You'll notice that I didn't name the child after anyone. I figured that children of Harry and Severus' almost are always named after someone (James, Severus, Lily, Eileen, etc.), and not that I have anything against that. I mean, I'll be doing it myself at one point in other stories but I just wanted them to have a child with its own name in this story. Hope you liked the chapter and please review. :] I'll be a bit later updating tomorrow as I'm not coming home right after school. Instead I have to go pick up my grad dress and make sure it fits properly after the alterations and everything and then I'm going to dinner with my mother to McDonald's. :P Haven't eaten there in ages. Lol.
