Lucius had never been so nervous about a date before and it was more then wanting to make it up to Harry. He would have allowed Harry to castrate him if it would have made him feel better. In the days since he had seen Harry in town, Harry's words had rung through his mind. Harry had accused him of using sex as a weapon and trying to turn him into a whore, and he could not deny that Harry was right. He and Severus had been looking to have some fun and let their hair down, Lucius needing to let loose as his brother had put it. Neither of them had taken into consideration what it would have felt like to be the other person, not intending for that person to know it had been a bet but still they had done what Harry said, they had made him into a whore. They had taken an innocent young virgin and made a game of bedding him, though neither man had taken him to bed though they had both had the chance to. He had sworn to Draco he would not hurt Harry but already had.

Tonight he swore would be the start of making this better. It was not simply an apology or he had wanted the second date. He had not wanted the date to bed Harry and for the bet. He had realized as they were having dinner that he was extremely attracted to Harry and wanted more with him. It was the reason he had pulled away from bedding Harry when Harry would have allowed him to. He wanted to be with Harry but not for a bet and he was willing to wait as long as he needed to.

He had made a few special arrangements, not his usual whining and dining that he would have normally done. Harry was not the ordinary date. He was an incredible young man he wanted a future with. He would have had a special night planned even if he had not been trying to make it up to Harry. He had finally heard from his brother and learned Severus was dating Remus and that Harry had told his dad the bet was over a kiss, sparing them both the wrath of the wolf.

He was at the gates five minutes early and smiled when Harry came his way and presented him with a bouquet of roses. "I'm happy you wanted a second date."

Harry took the roses which he had sent off with an elf. "I am not about to think you have changed and remove that spell. But I'm willing to give you a chance."

Lucius assured him it was all he asked for and refused for now to tell Harry where they were going. They were not going right now for their actual date place. He had decided he needed to show Harry that he was not completely a bastard and that there were things that he could do. He had spoken with Severus and he and his brother had decided they both needed to make something good happen with the bet they had made.

Harry was a bit confused when he noticed they were at St. Mungo's and wondered what Lucius had up his sleeve. Harry was not at all sure he liked the fact that his date was bringing him to the hospital and wondered if he would threaten to commit him if he didn't remove the spell. Lucius had a different thing in store.

Harry gaped when he saw a sign over a door. "The John Lupin Memorial Ward? Luc?"

Lucius smiled. "Werewolves were kept in little better then prison cells in the basement unless they had money or private care. I thought this was a good cause."

There had been a ward on the third floor not being used and Lucius had used his money from the bet to have the security installed so it would be safe during full moons for werewolves to be there, so they could have proper hospital care in rooms with windows and proper beds. They were humans with an illness, not animals. Severus had made arrangements with the hospital to make the wolfs bane potion for them to be administered or free to patients there, as many werewolves could not afford the potion, even with the laws changed to open more doors. The name was fitting for John Lupin was the one who had ensured his son could attend Hogwarts, and a ward which would allow proper medical care and treatment like humans, and free access to wolf's bane, was a true honour to the man.

Lucius did not need to admit to Harry that he had to create a trust to continue to pay for the wolfs bane potion for it to be supplied, as Severus' donation would not last forever, but Lucius had not minded. He donated to a number of charities and had often been a hospital benefactor. He had enough money to live on for a thousand years and with his company making more money every day, he wanted to make a real difference.

Harry reached up and kissed him. "I have still not forgiven you but this is a good step. It means a lot you'd do this, and the honour to my adoptive grandfather."

Lucius smiled. "It was something that should have been done long ago, its way over due. But I thought you would agree it was a good use for the bet money."

Harry readily agreed and when Lucius took him for the real date he admitted it was a good start for Lucius redeeming himself and Severus as he was involved too. He had of course never met his adoptive grandfather, John and Catherine Lupin dead long before he had become a Lupin. But Remus had told him a lot about his dad who had fought hard to give his son a normal life, and he knew his dad would be honoured when he found out what Lucius had done in John's name.

Lucius transformed their robes into jackets for he had made arrangements for him and Harry to have dinner on a river boat cruise in London. It was a simple dinner, not the expensive lobster and wine from last time, but the city was so beautiful from the water and he even convinced Harry to share a dance with him.

When they were back at school Lucius reached down and brushed him with a kiss. "You seemed to have a good time. Can I hope we will have a third date?"

Harry smiled and nodded. "I guess so, if only to let you have a chance to have the spell removed." But after a moment. "Thank you for tonight and the ward."

Harry headed back inside the school and he found his dad. He had admitted to Remus he was going on a date with Lucius, and his dad though surprised had understood. He had warned his son to be careful for he didn't want him to be hurt but he would support Harry as Harry was fine with him dating Severus. He was surprised and touched like his son had been when he heard about what Lucius had done. He still didn't know the extent of the bet and Harry never planned on him knowing, but Remus thought Lucius had at least been amazingly honourable in that.
