The twins looked at their blond father "Why were you so sad daddy?" asked Dan.

Draco stroked the young brunette's hair lovingly "It's not important anymore".

***

The blond Slytherin sat in Snape's classroom hiding his face in his hands shaking as he cried. Severus watched his godson cry from fear and stress, he swallowed and hated seeing someone he cared for so much look so miserable. He couldn't comfort the young lad because there was nothing that he could say that could help him threw this hardship. He considered trying to find Potter see if that might ease Draco's suffering, but Harry can't know what's going on.

Adrian looked into Percy's eyes as they lay in the bed wearing only their underwear, he watched the other man blush nervously and finally spoke "Do you have any brothers or sisters?"

"One older brother, he's ten years older than me, we don't talk"

"Why?"

He shrugged "Just never talked to each other I was much closer to Terence and Marcus. What about the relationship with your siblings, you all seem pretty close"

Percy couldn't help laughing bitterly "The first born was Bill then there was Charlie they were really close, then I was born and I was the annoying kid brother to them, so when I found out mum was pregnant I was really excited because I thought I could have what Bill and Charlie had" he swallowed before continuing, idly stroking Adrian's arm "But mum had twins Fred and George and they had each other they didn't need me, so I really got into learning I was so happy how proud it made my mother, but by doing so I was laughed at by my younger brothers even though they admire Bill and Charlie. Then Ron was born and again I thought I could have a friend, and I did for a little while looked after him, but he got older, Ginny was born, he wanted to be big brother and be cool, hanging out with me wasn't something cool. I was already too much of a loner to try and build a relationship with my little sister" he stopped talking feeling a familiar swelling in his throat.

Adrian had listened silently, he saw what talking about this did to him "So you were really lonely growing up?" he asked stroking the red-head's rosy cheeks

Percy nodded trying not to cry "Yeah, all my siblings had paired off and I was either ignored or scoffed at. I didn't mean to seem pompous or arrogant; I just wanted people to be proud of me. Now look at me unemployed and carrying an illegitimate baby" he laughed bitterly

"I'm sorry" the ex-Slytherin said.

"Don't be, it's my fault as much as yours" he sighed

"How did Hogwarts life treat you, I know I didn't exactly give you a break?"

"It was horrible" Percy admitted

"Really?" Adrian asked a bit surprised.

"Yeah and I was so excited to be there at first, but really it was just a place where more people mocked and disliked me. My brothers liked me less when I got there, apparently I made Bill and Charlie less cool, and I was the object of mockery for the twins, and just that embarrassingly arrogant brother to the youngest two" he swallowed loosing the battle to stop the tears falling "I threw myself into studying realising that I will never be cool and have very limited friends and tried to be the best I can be, surviving on my mother's praise and Oliver's friendship. But all I ever really wanted was at least one of my siblings to spend some time with me, they never did" Percy felt his ex kiss his cheek and it made him start to cry, as the hurt he felt for so long came pouring out, he felt strong arms hold him as he cried out the pain.

Harry sat with Seamus and Dean in the common room, they were the only ones still up, the boy-who-lived sat staring into the fireplace while the other two sat in the big chair curled up together and making out, they had branded Harry their 'lookout' incase of intruders. Harry looked at his two friends and felt bitter wanting to have that with his boyfriend but knew he couldn't, then a thought hit him, when could he really be with Draco in realistic terms. He sighed thinking, what he was doing with the Slytherin what was the point in having feelings for someone you can't really be with. And he worried about the blond, so much, he was worried that when all is said and done, Draco will side with his father, side with the dark said and Harry didn't believe he could take that kind of pain.

"Harry" he heard an Irish voice say and he looked up to see his friends looking at him worriedly "You alright?"

"Yeah" the brunette lied

"Me and Dean are off to bed now, you coming up?" Seamus asked as he stood up taking his boyfriend's hand.

"Later"

"Ok goodnight Harry" Dean said as the couple walked up the stairs.

The only Gryffindor awake stayed up, thinking about the man he really cared for and tried to think what was the best thing to do.

Adrian and Percy had stayed up till they were both too exhausted to speak, they had both opened up about so much they definitely knew a lot more about each other and liked each other as people rather than just found each other attractive. Now the brunette spooned his ex a hand resting on the pregnant baby, the two slept soundly.
