Fandom: HP

Notes: An abused boy finds out he's a wizard and a hero; his tormented mind rebels. One person sees through the misconceptions to the real Harry and treats him the way he deserves. How does this change them both and those around them?


9- Surprises?

Harry wasn't feeling well and slipped out of charms to visit the toilet. He'd been ill the last few days and had had trouble keeping food down. He was feeling rather tired as well…

"Harry?"

Harry turned to see Luna, "Luna?"

"You don't look so well." She looked him over, "your magic is running very strong, it's putting a bit of a strain on your body." The wisp of a Ravenclaw moved closer, closing her eyes, "you should see a healer."

Harry chewed on his lip, "I only see papa."

"Your papa is Professor Snape?"

Harry nodded.

"You're a prefect you can be out during lessons. I'll take you down there. He has a free period now."

Harry blinked, "How did you know?"

"I just do." Luna gently moved her hand through Harry's flames to rest on his arm, "Come on Lion let's get you to see your papa."

Harry let her lead him, trusting she wouldn't let him be hurt.

Luna moved slowly sensing his nausea as they made their way from the Charms corridor to the dungeons by the most direct route.

Harry mumbled the password to his papa's office.

Luna led him inside, "Professor? Harry needs to be examined."

Severus looked up from his pyramid of potions essays, "Ms. Lovegood?"

"I sensed he was in distress and slipped out to find him. His magic is putting stress on his body." Luna said in a light voice.

"Is this true Harry?" Severus asked concerned limping towards his son.

"My magic has been very strong since my birthday…" since Draco made love to him, something happened to their magic that day. It had bled to their familiars and gave them human form for a while.

Severus concerned that this girl could sense something was wrong, what could cause his son such problems? His eyes widened, he'd seen this before…Percy and George. His eyes narrowed, "You didn't. You're too young. Harry why?"

Harry was confused, "Why what?"

"How did you get a hold of a pregnancy potion?"

Harry shook his head, "I haven't. I haven't been away from our family so no one could give it to me."

There was a flash of flames; Benia was perched on a chair. "There was no potion."

"Then how did he get pregnant?" Severus asked.

"The lion and the dragon were born soulbonded."

Luna's eyes widened, "Soulbonded? That's rare, like one in a billion. It's so uncommon that it occurs less then once a generation. They were born bonded, they're true soulmates. The pregnancy must be result of their magic; did the flames awaken when they gave themselves to each other physically? They say Merlin spontaneously concieved, he was one of the first males to be pregnant."

Benia chuckled, "You are wise. Yes they did. Their magic reached such a level they couldn't contain it and it bled out into Creon and myself."

"When a master with a magical familiar's magic reaches a certain point it can be bled to a familiar through their link. When such an incident occurs the familiar had attain human form until the level of the master's magic reaches a normal level." Luna said in awe.

"Exactly." Benia chuckled, "You really are wise."

Severus sighed, pulling Harry into his arms, "I'm not going to ask whose it is. I know its Draco's. I still don't quite understand how this child came to be. No matter. I wish you had waited. You're so young…"

Harry curled up as best he could with his papa five months pregnant, "We couldn't wait any longer. I needed him to make love to me. He'd been holding himself back. He's wanted me since last year but he knew I was too young. Draco's always looking out for me. He was so gentle with me papa, it barely hurt at all. He cares more about my pleasure then his own."

Severus was red-faced listening to his son refer to his sex life, "Harry, I'm glad he's taking such good care of you."

Harry whispered, "Is it okay for him to make love to me if I'm pregnant?"

Severus thought about how enjoyable sex was with Remus now, "Yes but only if you want it. You'll need a steady diet of prenatal pepper-up, anti-nausea, and vitamin potions. If you're nauseous and Draco moves wrong in bed you'll be extremely ill. You'll have to let Draco do the brewing because by about four months many potion ingredients are hazardous to a pregnant person."

"Since you can't brew does that mean Aunt Annie will?" He was a bit shy of her knowing he was pregnant just yet.

"Unless Draco will, he has the skills to brew prenatal potions. He is still a potions assistant. He could have taught my N.E.W.T.s potions class easily." Severus chuckled.

Luna acquired a serene expression, "I'm glad he's alright. I was suspicious he was pregnant his change in magic was unique." She moved closer, tilting her head, "Harry has the same magical echoes as you professor."

Benia chuckled.

Severus started casting more sensitive spells to determine how pregnant Harry was. His son's HcG or human chorionic gonadotropin was elevated as was his own, he thought about it. Since Harry's fifteenth birthday, he was showing signs of sleepiness, lethargy and exhaustion. Having children young wasn't uncommon amoung Wizarding kind; they could also have them far later then Muggles as long as the bearer was in good health. He worried; after such a traumatic childhood would this pregnancy prove too much for his son? Why was it twins?

"If you're wondering why, male pregnancy is made possible usually by potions but it is the parents' magical strength that determines the number of fetuses. You are an extremely powerful wizard Severus and you wanted your sons very much, that combination is why you have two sons growing with in you. The Wizarding World hasn't seen two wizards with power like the lion and the dragon for millennia. That much power, it is no shock that they are having two. Yours are one that became two. Harry's is two like the Geminis'."

How did this Phoenix know that Harry who was just over six weeks was carrying fraternal twins? Severus knew that he had identical twin boys because they shared a placenta…

"How did you know he was pregnant?" Benia asked the little Ravenclaw.

Luna smiled, "Daddy and I raise unicorns at our house, Rook Folly. I help him take care of them. He gave mum unicorns as anniversary presents, I inherited them after she died."

"I see, so you've help deliver foals?" Severus asked a bit surprised that a fourth year would be delivering unicorn foals.

Luna nodded, "Oh yes, my Blibbering-Humdingers let me know when a foal is about to drop. I used to watch the Weasley children from afar; we live not far from the Burrow and the Diggory place in Ottery St. Catchpole. I just keep to myself."

Harry moved to hug her, "I want you to be one of my babies godmothers."

Luna blinked, that announcement was unexpected. She got a dreamy look, "I'd like that if Draco doesn't disagree."

Harry jumped up, rubbing his stomach, "He won't. He loves me and he'll agree to anything I want. I can't wait to tell Draco."

"Wait!" Severus summoned some of his own pregnancy potions, "here until Draco or Andromeda brew you some for yourself."

Harry hugged his papa, and kissed his cheek, "Thank you." He was so happy, he wanted this baby, no these babies so much.

XoooooX

Harry was so excited after talking to papa that he was practically glowing. It wasn't until lunch that he was able to share his news. He'd summoned Dobby on his way to his rooms in Slytherin asking him to bring him a picnic lunch. Papa and the Headmistress decided reluctantly to let Sirius teach when no one applied for the Transfiguration post. He seemed to float over the stone floor…

Draco made his way to their rooms; Harry had disappeared during Charms and hadn't come back. He was worried since Harry had been lethargic and nauseous he thought maybe his boyfriend had contracted a late summer cold…

Harry was humming, reading books he'd taken out of the library last weekend. Hogwarts' library had everything, including books on male pregnancy. Something he was interested in before but so much more so now that he was carrying Draco's babies…

Draco entered their rooms, to find a very happy Harry, "Adder? You left Charms, are you alright?"

Harry grinned, patting the bed, "Never better." He'd had a pepper-up potion and an anti-nausea one as well so he was feeling positively delightful.

"Are you sure? You're been feeling off recently." Checking his boyfriend's forehead with his wrist.

Harry kissed him, "What do you call the children of a lion and a dragon?"

Draco's silver eyes widened and blinked several times, "Adder?"

"I know you're jealous of Charlie, Oliver and Fred." Harry said climbing into his lap, "You don't have to be."

Draco looked down into those glittering green eyes, "You're not,"

"Yes, I am."

"Since when?"

Harry laid his hand on Draco's thigh, "My birthday. I'm five weeks yesterday."

"Adder! That's wonderful!" He covered his lover with kisses.

Harry banished his school robes, "Make love to me."

Draco looked down at the beautiful boy beneath him, "Is it safe?"

Harry grinned, "I made a point to ask papa."

Draco groaned, "He's going to kill me."

"No he won't. He wants me to be happy, just like you do." Harry said wrapping his arms around Draco's neck.

"Of course I want you to be happy." Draco said his own clothes disappearing from his body. "You're my beautiful, perfect Adder. I think I've loved you since I first looked into those Slytherin green eyes of yours."

Harry blushed, it was still a new feeling of having Draco so intimately pressed against him, "I need you."

XoooooX

Severus was still processing that his son was five weeks pregnant…

Remus rubbed his back in an effort to comfort him, "It will be okay."

"Is it too much to ask that he just be a normal boy? That he not have some homicidal maniac after him? That there isn't some power-mad psycho who wants to control him? Pregnant at fifteen? Slytherin's Ballocks!" Severus muttered.

"Hush now Sev, it's going to be alright. He isn't alone. He has all of us." Remus hugged him ignoring the scowl he felt from Sirius.

Owl post arrived as usual.

Remus ignored his few letters and opened up his Daily Prophet.

Then there was a loud crash, Remus turned to see Sirius storming towards them.

"What kind of a joke is this? I don't know what kind of a game you're playing Snivellus but it ends here."

Severus was not in the mood for Sirius and his temper. "I haven't a clue what you're on about."

"You sent this! A letter that seems to be in Lily's handwriting." Sirius shoved it into Severus' face.

'September 18, 1981

Sirius,

I have the most wonderful news. James and I are expecting again. I know I'm not supposed to send letters but I couldn't help myself. Albus has kindly offered to pass this on. He also told me the most wonderful news. Severus came to his senses. He's joined the Order. He's spying on the Death Eaters but that's alright. James has almost agreed. I hope you don't mind I love you dearly and you're so good with Harry but I'm going to ask Severus to be this little one's godfather. Poppy came the other day and told me it's a girl. I'm so happy.

Can't wait to see you,

Lily.

P.S. Harry keeps trying to fly on that toy broom you gave him. James says he's got the makings of a true flyer. He'll be on the Gryffindor team, he just knows it. James says hello and Harry misses his Paddy.

Severus shook; Lily was pregnant? That heartless bastard held onto this for fifteen years? Damn him!

Remus read the letter over his shoulder and then noticed two letters also in Lily's handwriting beside their plates. He tore open his own.

'September 18, 1981

Remus,

Good News. I know you have tried your best to keep it a secret but I know. You've liked Severus for a long time. Albus said he's joined the Order as a spy, wouldn't give details though. Albus also said the war is almost over, something we have to take at his word since we're in hiding. I hope as soon as it is over that you tell Severus how you feel. After the life he had when we were children he needs to be loved; not that he'd ever admit it.

Harry misses his uncle Moony and we hope you can come visit soon. Oh and we're going to make Harry a big brother this Spring. Poppy said I'm having a girl. I want you and Severus to be its godfathers. That is if I can get James to finally say yes. He's coming around, especially since Albus told him that Severus is now a spy for the Order. James said he never thought Old Snivellus had it in him to be a spy.

Can't wait to see you,

Lily

Remus held back a sob, a baby? How could they tell Harry, that his little sister died with his parents? Albus that horrible man, he'd held these letters back…

"Why! Tell me why you would send this? Why? James would never make you godfather to his child!"

"Actually, he would." Poppy spoke up.

Sirius spun to face her, his face red with anger. "Why?"

The woman who had treated Remus after his transformations when he was a student shrugged, "Because he loved her. She'd always held out hope that Severus would wake up one day and realize he was a good man. When Albus told her that Severus had come to him then she begged James to let him be their daughter's godfather. He had been her best friend, the first person she met from our world. I'm surprised you didn't receive those letters before."

Remus' eyes flashed gold, "that terrible man. What does know this now accomplish? Remus' brow furrowed, fifteen years ago Severus told Voldemort about the prophecy putting in motion events that claimed the life of James, Lily and their daughter as well as putting Harry in the custody of abusers. Now that his mate was pregnant, this kind of news….

Severus found himself pulled into Remus' chest.

"It's not your fault. You didn't determine the boy in the prophecy was Harry. You tried to get Albus to save them. Your choice then is matters. Lily knew you'd come back to us." He held out the letter, "She told me to pursue you. She would be proud of us." Remus said holding him close.

Sirius tore the letter from Remus' hand, "She wouldn't!" he scanned the letter. "This can't be true. I would have known! James would have written me."

Charity, his wife approached him, "Sirius? Did you see this?"

Sirius took the letter, "That's James' handwriting." He ripped it open and then sank to his knees shaking. "He did it. He agreed. How could he? Its just Snivellus…"

Remus was vaguely happy; Lily and James had died knowing Severus had come back from the dark path he'd started on. They had both wanted him to be godfather to their child, their daughter. He just wished they had know before…

Severus held onto his mate, too shocked to cry.

What was Dumbledore's plan? Unless it was to put Severus in such a shock he lost their babies. Remus held him tighter, he wouldn't let that happen…


Aww Luna sensed Harry was pregnant. Poor Severus, what a shock to discover your son is pregnant.

Who didn't see that coming?

Poor Severus one shock after another. First Harry's pregnancy and now letters from the grave from James and Lily. Poor Harry, should anyone tell him Voldemort killed his baby sister?

What else is Dumbles holding back?

Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Troll?

Hope you like.
