Disclaimer: How many Galleons do you think it would cost to get J.K. Rowling to sell me the rights to Harry Potter? Probably more than I have… So I still don't own the characters, but the plot is all mine! Muahahaha
Harry: You may want to keep those vampires close…And bring in an army of Aurors… Asking nicely in different languages is cool! And speaking of, s'il vous plait, s'il vous plait, s'il vous plait update!
Zana: DE RIEN DE REIN DE RIEN DE RIEN! Oh, and there's another one... DE RIEN. There, I think that covers it… My interesting ideas come from an alternate universe where Harry Potter is the Dark Lord and Voldemort wears pink! (I just made that up)
Everyone else: I miss your reviews. *sniff sniff* Please review?
On to the story!
Scorpius groaned and opened his eyes, spotting James. "What are you doing here? Where am I?" Scorpius asked.
"We are in the Hospital Wing, and I just saved your life," James said, standing up and putting his hands behind his back.
"Thanks," Scorpius said, looking down.
James nodded. "Who was it?" he asked quietly.
"Who was what?" Scorpius asked blankly.
"Who injured you so badly?" James nearly shouted, glancing at the door Madam Pomfrey had gone through.
"I don't know," Scorpius lied.
"Please don't lie to me. I'm sick of lies and heartbreak…" James took a deep breath, shaking his head. "Not the point. The point is, I know if you are lying to me, so please don't," James said.
"I do not know who attacked me," Scorpius said again.
James fought the urge to bang his own head against the wall. "Why won't you tell me?" James asked.
"Because I don't know," Scorpius insisted.
"Well I do," James growled.
"Then who was it?" Scorpius challenged.
"Fenrir Greyback," James spat.
Scorpius was silent for a moment. "How did you find out?"
"I heard you talking to Moaning Myrtle. Why didn't you tell me what he did to you?"
Scorpius was shaking but flinched away when James tried to comfort him. "He threatened me. And when he found out about you the threatened to do the same thing to you. I couldn't let you go through that," Scorpius said.
"I'm telling Madam Pomfrey."
"No!" Scorpius yelled. "If you promise not to tell, then we can get back together James," he offered frantically
James was shaking his head before Scorpius even finished. "I can not just let this go, no matter what," James said.
"But I thought you love me," Scorpius said, tears sliding down his face.
"You know I do, Scorpius. That's why I have to tell," James said with a tortured look on his face.
"What are the teachers going to do about him? They can't do anything. Trust me, I know they can't," Scorpius said.
"But they can catch him, put him in Azkaban," James said.
Scorpius shook his head, more tears spilling onto his robes. "He's a werewolf, and he can use magic and he was a death eater. Do you really think they can capture him?"
James took a deep breath, still undecided.
"Come here, James," Scorpius whispered, holding his arms out. "Come here and promise you won't tell. We can be together; I don't care about our fathers anymore."
"Why should I? So you can use me to keep your little secret?" James asked bitterly. "Scorpius, I care about you, which is why I'm going to tell," he said, more surely than he felt.
"James, if you tell anyone, I swear never to talk to you again," Scorpius threatened.
James bit his lip. "If that's the price I have to pay to keep you safe, I will pay it."
"James, if the adults fail, Greyback will track you down and kill you!" Scorpius said.
"I don't care," James growled.
"Please don't," Scorpius begged. "I can handle it on my own!"
"That's why you're in the Hospital Wing," James said sarcastically. "I can't let him get away with this. And now you are forcing me to make the hardest choice of my life."
"Please James! I love you—" Scorpius was cut off as James kissed him, sitting down on the bed and pulling Scorpius into his lap.
"No more hiding things from me," James whispered, holding Scorpius close.
~Malfoy Manor~
Draco reluctantly got up from the couch, pulling his shirt back on as he went to answer the door. "Oh, hello Ron," Draco said awkwardly. "Hold on, I'll get Harry."
"No, I wanted to talk to you," Ron said.
Draco blinked, shocked. "What about?"
"I need to let go of the past. While it may take some time, I would like to be friends. Truce?" Ron said, holding his hand out.
"Truce," Draco said, shaking Ron's hand. "I'm glad to hear that, but I need to get going. Hermione can get pretty demanding when she's pregnant," Ron laughed.
Draco smiled. "Goodbye," he said as Ron waved and disapparated. Draco walked back into the living room and sat on the couch with Harry.
"Who was it?" Harry asked.
"Ron," Draco said. "He wanted a truce with me, and said we might even become friends."
Harry smiled. "Good to know," he murmured, kissing Draco.
Draco growled when the doorbell rang again. "Can I please just have a few minutes of peace with my boyfriend?" he demanded of nobody as he went to answer the door.
"Oh, so you're gay now?" a female voice said from outside right before Draco opened the door. "I heard rumors that you were dating Harry Potter, but I didn't think they were true," Draco's ex-wife, Astoria said.
"What do you want, Astoria?" Draco asked wearily.
"To know why you have taken my son away from me," she said, brushing him aside and walking into the house.
"It was Scorpius' choice," Draco said shutting the door. He had almost forgotten that Harry was sitting on the couch shirtless until Astoria walked into the living room.
"Oh, I didn't know I would have the…pleasure…of meeting dear Draco's new boyfriend," she sneered, looking over Harry.
Harry shifted uncomfortably.
"Harry, this is Astoria, my ex," Draco said, glancing at Harry apologetically. "Astoria, this is Harry."
"I know," Astoria said, smirking at Harry.
"Draco, I'm just going to go upstairs," Harry said, his face pale.
"No, don't leave on my account," Astoria said, pushing him back down onto the couch.
"Astoria," Draco said warningly, "leave Harry alone."
"Why would Scorpius want to live with you?" Astoria demanded, turning back toward Draco.
"I don't know," Draco said. "He didn't tell me, he just asked me to file for sole custody."
"You listened to a child?"
Draco shrugged. "I missed my son, and he wanted to live with me."
"Does your boyfriend live here?" Astoria asked.
Draco nodded, smiling at Harry.
"I don't approve of my son living with two gay men," Astoria growled.
"Scorpius doesn't mind it," Draco pointed out. "Apparently, he'd rather live with us than with you and whoever you're dating."
"Oh, I never told you who I'm dating, did I? My boyfriend is Fenrir Greyback," Astoria smirked.
"You would rather have Scorpius living with a werewolf than with Harry and me?" Draco asked.
"Yes," Astoria said.
Draco sighed, shaking his head. "I left it up to Scorpius, and he chose to live here."
"Fine. You had better watch the ones you love closely," Astoria sneered at the two men, leaving the house.
"Was she like that when you were married?" Harry asked.
"Yes. I'm sorry, if I had known she would treat you like that—"
"It's fine. I can understand how she might be jealous. I mean, anyone would be, with your body…" Harry trailed off. Draco grinned and sat down, kissing Harry.
