Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird.
„...and then he stood right in front of him, the dark magician."
„Daddy?"
„Yes, in front of Daddy and with much power and the most powerful weapon, love, he could beath the mad magician."
„Why isn't Daddy here?"
Every time his little angel asked the same question and every time he gave the same answer.
„Because he gave his life for yours."
And if that mockingbird won't sing,
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring
He kissed his little boy, stroaking his unruly, blonde hair and looked into his wonderful deep-green eyes. Lucien Severus Potter-Malfoy. In honor to his husband and the one, who gave his for the black haired boy. Harry had wanted him.
„Where's Daddy now?"
„He is in a wolrd, right beside us. But he still watches and protects you, when you're in danger. While you sleep he stroakes your hair, just like I do, and he smiles when he does it. He knows that, one day, you will be powerful."
And if that diamond ring turns brass,
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass
With wide eyes, the five-year-old boy looked upon his father.
„When is Draco coming to visit us?"
„Next week, Darling. I promise."
„I luv ya, Papa."
„I love you, too, little angel and so does your Daddy."
And if that looking glass gets broke,
Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat
Gently Lucius tucked his little boy in and kissed him on his forehead. In the time span, he was allowed to spend with his beloved, he has become so happy. Harry was such a loving and caring person. So delicate. He almost was an elve, so small and gracious his body looked like. And then Harry got pregnant. It was unexpected, but Lucius welcomed it, another heir to the Malfoy family. Only Harry had to pay a big price.
Lucius took in a deep breath, he had to hold on. He wasn't allowed to cry, not now. He not even once did it. Not in all those years, that his former lover was gone.
He again looked at his sleeping son. After taking off his shoes and his necktie, he laid himself next to his son. For years now he hadn't slept in with his son. Probably he should change that. His sweetheart often had nightmares and he prohibited his son from coming to him because of trivia. And maybe he was too strict with his son?
And if that billy goat won't pull,
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull
Gently he petted Lucien's head. He definitely had his Daddy's hair. But they were blonde, at least that had remained from him. But he was all the more happy, when he saw that his boy had those beautiful forest green eyes his lover, Harry, had. They were incomparable to any other eyes.
Sometime Lucius must have finally fallen asleep, when suddenly an invisible figure emmerged. The night had begun and he could watch over the sleep of his kid. He smiled as he saw his husband by his boy, they looked so peaceful. Caring he stroaked over the hair of Lucien and blew his lover a kiss. Until the morning rose, he sat at the edge of the bed and quietly hummed a melody.
And if that cart and bull fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
