Draco and George's wedding was quickly approaching in early April. At times it could not approach quickly enough for them. And it was only in part they were anxious to share a life together. George could not live with him at school until they were married as he wasn't on staff. But Lucius was driving them nuts with the plans and they considered eloping. Draco though knew his father meant well and Draco was his only child. He wanted his dad there, especially since he couldn't have his mother at his side. His mind went to his Uncle but he shook away the thought.

George was worried about his fiancé and he had spoken to Harry. He knew Harry was still hurt by Severus but he cared deeply about Draco. He knew his fiancé was too stubborn to admit he wanted the man at their wedding. But Severus had made no attempt with Draco to mend things.

Draco wasn't happy as he noticed. "Damn it." He walked to his floo. "Potions lab."

Severus appeared in the flames surprised. "Draco."

"Do you have any stock of headache potions?"

Severus nodded. "I thought the hospital was stocking it."

Draco grumbled. "They don't have my order ready."

Severus nodded. "I can bring some up."

Draco smirked. "You can send it with an elf."

"I was headed that way anyways."

Draco knew he was in no place to argue. "Fine."

Severus backed out of the flames. "I will floo shortly."

Draco grumbled. "Bloody headaches."

One of his students heard. "I am sorry Healer Malfoy."

Draco turned and shook his head. "Sorry, nothing to do with you Thomas."

Thomas explained. "It is Professor Trewlaney's classroom."

Draco had never been in the class but he had heard stories of the room. It seemed though she had used a wrong dose of the incense that day. He had four patients so far come to him with bad migraines. Unfortunately his supply had not arrived from the hospital and he was told it would be another day before he could get some. He knew it would be much simpler to use Severus but he had refused to turn to the man.

Severus came through the floo a few moments later with some bottles in hand. Draco took the bottle from him and went over to his patient. Thomas grimaced at the taste but the relief was evident pretty quickly and he sent the Ravenclaw off to his dorms for some rest.

He noticed the man was still there. "You can leave."

"I have these for you."

"I didn't ask for any other potions."

"I have a feeling you may be running short on these."

Draco saw the bottles and grumbled. "Spying?'

Severus went to the cabinet. "I made potions for Poppy for years."

Draco grunted. "Thanks I guess."

"It would be much easier if I just brewed for you."

Draco grunted. "We have discussed this."

"I make many of the hospital potions anyways." Severus pointed out.

"I wouldn't want to take away from your business."

Severus sighed. "Why do you insist on doing everything harder?"

"I would think you'd understand. Where did I learn it?"

"Your father can be as well."

Draco walked over and closed his cabinet. "Thank you for the potions."

He had told Severus he would use the hospital for potions. The man refused to send them with an elf and Draco had not wanted to see him.

Severus had kept his distance until now but it seemed Draco had come back under his radar. He couldn't understand this man. He didn't want to play games with him anymore. Harry was not the only one he had hurt and he didn't simply get to come back into any of their lives so easily.

Severus stopped. "I will make the potions for you."

"I am not doing this again."

"You may not be ready to have me as your Uncle but….."

"Nor ready?" Draco spat.

"But we are colleagues and we can work together."

Draco grunted. "I guess it would be easier."

Severus said. "My healer wants me to have checkups once a week as I continue to strengthen my leg."

Draco eyed him. "And?"

"You are healer to the staff as well."

"If you think this will worm your way back into my life….."

"I am trying to get my leg back. And I know you are a good healer."

Draco nodded curtly. "Friday evenings after dinner."

Severus nodded curtly. "Thank you."

"But don't think I am about to give in."

"You have too much of your father in you."

Draco left the man in the room as he was running late. He was meeting his fiancé as well as Harry and his dad for dinner. He had to smile that it was his second doubt date with those two it seemed. It was the first though since Harry and his dad had officially begun to date. He found all three waiting for him at the restaurant in town. George looked a bit worried that his fiancé was running late. Draco reluctantly admitted what had happened as he took a seat at the table. No one really said anything and changed topics. Harry shared a look with George and Lucius. None of them were surprised that Draco had reluctantly agreed to aid and work with the man. They certainly knew how much he missed his Uncle.

Harry walked back to school with Lucius later. "I am glad he took my advice for once. I told him to spend his energy on Draco instead."

Draco had been reluctant but he had started rehab with Severus once a week. He allowed the man into his space and worked with him. He allowed it as a healer only. He could see the man was making progress and reluctantly agreed to twice a week. But he would never talk to him on a personal level. The man hadn't earned that yet and he wasn't sure that the man would ever get that again from him.

Harry decided to repay the favor though he knew he would take more pleasure from his side of the bargain. He knew Lucius was driving them nuts with the wedding that was in less than a month. Harry decided it was about time that he was the one to surprise Lucius.

Lucius was at the ministry, he had an office there and the ministry, when he heard a knock. "Yes?"

His assistant who helped him at both poked her head in. "There is someone to see you Lord Malfoy."

Lucius sighed. "I was about to leave."

"He says it's urgent."

Lucius grunted. "Fine, let him in."

He was putting away his papers when he heard. "Well if I knew that was the hello I would get, I'd have stayed home."

Lucius looked up. "Harry?"

Harry smiled. "I know its been two weeks but I hope you haven't forgotten me."

Lucius assured him. "I wasn't expecting you."

"That is why it is called a surprise."

"You are trying to surprise me? Should I be worried?"

"Worried to see what I plan for a date?"

Lucius shrugged. "Perhaps. Anxious for a forth?"

Harry agreed. "Well actually fifth."

"Fifth? Am I forgetting one? I don't count dinner with my son."

"Need a forth to get to a fifth."

Lucius led him out. "And what is so special about fifth?"

"I get to know your deepest fears."

"At this rate my son's wedding may be it."

Harry smirked. "Who said I was going to be your date to that?"

"Going to make me go all alone?"

Harry shrugged. "Will have to see."

Lucius could admit he was a bit intrigued by this. He was definitely not used to being the one to be surprised. And certainly not to be the one to have a date planned for him. He was a bit surprised that Harry had taken the initiative to plan something. He had been thinking of taking Harry out tomorrow. He didn't like the gaps between their dates and hoped perhaps they would date a bit more often. It seemed Harry agreed with him. He was a tad worried when Harry took his arm to do side by side with him. He certainly had not been taken by anyone before.

Harry had thought hard about what they could do for their forth date. He had never planned something but he wanted to not be out done by Lucius. His dad had laughed and had reminded Harry that Lucius had plenty of experience. Harry perhaps had a bit of advice.

Lucius was surprised when they arrived. "Taking me shopping?'

"Thought we needed another lesson."

Lucius saw the little gourmet chocolate shop. "Really?"

Harry led Lucius him in. "They do private lessons in truffle making."

Lucius smiled. "Bit of a sweet tooth?"

Harry shrugged. "We forgot to make dessert last time we cooked."

Lucius agreed. "I didn't have any complaints about the ice cream."

Harry agreed. "If not for pizza with Teddy, I planned to teach you to make some brownies."

"Could have made them with Teddy. But decided chocolates?"

Harry smiled. "Teddy would love to make cookies with you. But thought to put us on even footing."

A man came out. "Are you my two for the lesson?"

Harry nodded. "We are."

The man motioned. "We are set up in the back."

They were both soon in aprons and learning how to make truffles. There was a chocolate martini to drink while they were doing the lesson. It wasn't the cooking they had done before but it was fun. There were many different kinds of flavors they could play with to make their truffles. Harry was a bit more experimental than Lucius but they both enjoyed. They spent about an hour before leaving with a box of chocolates. Lucius could admit that he had enjoyed the lesson that Harry had arranged. He wondered what else Harry had up his sleeve for the evening.

Harry smiled and pulled something out of his sleeve literally. "Funny you asked."

Lucius watched him unshrink a basket. "A picnic?"

Harry nodded. "Now that we have our dessert."

Lucius reminded him. "Still a bit cool for a picnic."

"No more cool then a dinner along the beach."

Lucius conceded that. "What did you have in mind?"

Harry smiled. "I thought we could use some views."

Lucius was shocked when they arrived. "Where are we?"

Harry smiled. "Up in the dome of St Paul's."

Lucius was amazed at the views even in the evening. "I would think it was closed."

Harry shrugged. "How we can have a picnic."

Lucius watched as he began to unpack. "If we get caught."

Harry shrugged. "You have some good attorneys..."

The two of them enjoyed the view of the city and the picnic dinner Harry had picked up from a favorite deli in London. The food and wine were great but the company was even better. They enjoyed feeding each other some of the chocolates as well. Lucius could admit Harry hadn't done too bad of a job planning the night and he might let Harry do it again. He agreed with Harry as they left later, that they needed a fifth date before the wedding. They were both wanting to see where this would go and were happy to take the dates at a bit more regular basis.

It seemed Lucius was not the only one with a surprise visitor that night. Severus had a long training session with his nephew and was tired when he got back to his rooms. He was about to take a bath when there was a knock at his painting door. He was surprised.

He opened the door not knowing what to expect. "What are you doing here?"

George looked as surprised. "I am asking myself the same thing."

"My godson is up in the hospital wing."

George nodded. "I know."

"Is there something you need?"

George handed him something. "I came to give you this."

Severus stared in shock. "An invitation."

George grunted. "I know he wants you there whether he will admit it or not."

With that George left and went to meet Draco who he was meant to have a late dinner with. He didn't mention his stop before. He hoped his fiancé would forgive him when he found out. He knew Draco was being stubborn and how much he loved his Uncle. He knew Draco was not ready to forgive and George couldn't blame him. But he also knew Draco would regret if Severus wasn't at the wedding. He couldn't have his mum there but he could have his Uncle there for him. He would blame it on Harry if Draco took it bad. He didn't want to miss his wedding night.

George kissed his boyfriend when Draco worried he was late. "Just had a few last things to do at the shop."
