Chapter 13
It had been a day since the potions accident and Ron hadn't regained consciousness. Madam Pomfrey told Harry that was to be expected, but that didn't mean he was too thrilled about it. Because of the incident, the students had been given the day off so that Severus could attempt to repair his potions classroom. Draco hadn't left Harry's side at all, mostly because he was worried for his pregnant mate, but also because Severus told him that he had no choice in this matter. After Ron was awake and everyone sure he was going to be okay, Hermione would be dealt with. Her wand had been taken away earlier and she was locked in a room while they waited. It was the testimony of another student that had convicted her. She wasn't as lucky as she had thought; one student had seen her, that was how they knew to dive for cover quicker than anybody else. Right at that moment however, Harry was holding Ron's hand as he sat in a chair, waiting for his best friend to wake up.
Draco sat in a chair next to Harry. He was worried, not only for Harry, but for Ron as well. He knew that they had once had a deep friendship with Granger. Now it was broken, he hoped that the two wizards would not be affected by it too much. "Come on Ron you have to wake up soon, you can't sleep forever. Besides you don't have to worry about potions for a while, the classroom was almost destroyed by the explosion, though Severus isn't pleased about it." Harry smiled as he talked to his best friend.
Ron's hand moved a bit and he groaned. He was coming to, though it was a little slow. "Why do I feel like I've been danced on by one of Hagrid's Blast-Ended Skrewts?" he groaned again. He didn't get long to wonder as Harry threw himself onto Ron, hugging his best friend. Ron opened his eyes and looked to see the black robes that belonged to Harry. He knew it was Harry because he could feel the roundness of his pregnant friend's stomach. Ron winced slightly as he felt a little sore from the desk collapsing on him. "Hi Harry." He also noticed Draco who had stayed in his seat.
Draco smiled warmly at him, at that moment Ron could see the Black blood within Draco as his smile was like Sirius. "You have had us worried. Next time you're going to get hit in potions, please use a spell as well. It will help you a lot," he said as he watched Harry hug his friend. "Get up Harry and let the poor man breath a bit." He smiled as Harry looked over at him.
Harry stuck his tongue out at Draco, but sat up anyways. He leaned back in his chair. It became obvious that his robes were open and his stomach was noticeable. Ron chuckled and took a deep breath. "How did the potion explode? There was no extra ingredients or anything." Instantly his mind zoned in on one thing. "Hermione." He sat up, but winced and ended up hunching forward. "Bad idea." He lay back down. Harry couldn't help or anything, as his hand was on his stomach and his back was beginning to hurt a lot. The chairs in the hospital wing weren't the most comfortable he had sat on.
Draco saw Harry wince a little as he began to sit back down on the chair, he quickly grabbed one of Harry's hand and pulled him over to his chair and sat the black haired boy in his lap. He waited awhile, letting Harry get comfortable and started to rub Harry's back, helping to sooth the ache. "You okay Ron?" he asked as he felt the pain coming from Harry diminish.
Ron nodded. He realized that some of his pain was also coming from Harry. He found that quite peculiar, always had. He sighed and looked at Harry. "Harry, I'm glad you're here, but have you taken care of yourself?" He was worried about his best friend. Harry shrugged slightly. He had spent all his time with Draco and Severus the night before, but he had been up the whole night instead of sleeping. He didn't want to tell any of them that one. It was not right. He worried about his friend and knew it wasn't a good idea to say anything. His hand came to rest on his stomach as his children decided to give him the beating of his life.
"He was awake all night worried about you, nothing me or Severus said could get him to sleep," Draco said as he looked at the redhead. He was worried about his mate as well. He then felt Harry jump a little, and then again. Both he and Ron looked over at the pregnant Fae and watched as he flinched as he rubbed the little bump under his top. "Harry what's wrong?" he asked as Ron tried to sit up once again, only to fall back onto the bed.
"They're kicking me a lot," Harry said. "It kind of hurts a bit, I wish they would stop." He leaned into Draco and closed his eyes, his hand still trying to soothe the kids. Ron finally got his arms on either side of him and pushed himself up, stopping himself from falling over. He was getting kind of tired of the room and really wished that he didn't have to deal with that little problem at all. Harry cuddled more into Draco, which allowed the blonde to feel the children kicking Harry quite hard and at the same time as well.
Ron stumbled over to his friend and sat on the floor next to Draco's chair. He leaned against Draco's legs, not able to keep himself up right without support. He reached a hand up and placed it over Harry's stomach. He was working on his instincts and sent calming waves to his friend and the children that lay within him. 'Be calm little ones.' He sent to the little twins. 'You are hurting you mommy.'
The kids calmed and Harry let out a sigh. "Thanks for that." He placed his head on Draco's shoulder. "Ron…Are you going to be okay?" Ron nodded and removed his hand. He had to admit that doing that made him a little dizzy, but other then that, he was okay. He sighed and looked up at Harry. Harry gave him a slight smile, but didn't move otherwise. Right then Severus walked into the hospital wing, grumbling quite vividly. Harry chuckled as some of it reached his sensitive hearing. Draco rolled his eyes. The two could hear it as they were non-humans.
"How are the repairs going Severus?" Harry asked a lilt to his voice, he was teasing his mate, hoping that Severus would smile for him, as he loved to see the normally stern potions master smile as it made him look years younger. Severus looked over to the three and smiled, it was nice to see his young mate happy, as well as seeing Ron awake. Severus thought that a little too soon as Ron chose that moment for his eyes to roll back in his head and pass out on the floor, not even Severus' vampire speed was able to stop him from banging his head against the stone floor.
Severus picked him up and put him back in the bed. He covered the boy up. He then sat on the chair Harry had been on before. "Too soon for him to be up, and they're going well. It's going to take some time first." He then looked and saw that Harry was a little pale. He knew that Harry hadn't gotten any sleep the night before, but he knew that wasn't all. He pointed to the bed next to Ron. "Draco, set Harry on that." Harry gave a slight struggle as Draco did as Severus said. He then walked over to Harry and kissed the boy's forehead. He ran his hand down Harry, more specifically his stomach, as that's where it seemed to be coming from. A frown marred his features as his hand didn't move from where it had been.
He felt as though something was wrong, not with the children, but with Harry himself. Something foreign was inside the young Fae, moving around. It was attacking Harry; he needed to get madam Pomfrey to confirm it. "Draco go and get madam Pomfrey and tell her I need a second opinion on something." Draco nodded and gave Harry a quick kiss and then went to the medi-witch's office, knocking on the door politely and waiting for an answer.
Harry looked at Severus. "What's wrong, are the babies alright?" Severus nodded in reassurance, but that didn't stop Harry's unease. If there wasn't something wrong with his children, then it had to be him. He was instantly worried. Draco came back with the medi-witch just as Severus removed his hand from Harry's stomach. She gave him a semi-odd look, but she began to look over Harry, her expression becoming grave. "What's wrong?" Harry was becoming increasingly worried. He didn't know what to do.
"Harry its okay, the children are fine, it's only you we are concerned about." He looked over at Poppy, his eyes questioning her; she nodded her head, mouthing the word poison to him. "I have the anti-toxin for this one in my lab, Draco go and get the Anti-Vulsitus potion from the cabinet and bring it straight back, and be quick," he said to the blonde haired young man that was standing off to one side. Draco ran out of the room quickly. "Harry," he said, turning back to his young mate. "Don't worry there is some poison in your blood, that is making you hurt, don't worry I have the antidote for it, which Draco has gone to get." Madam Pomfrey was off to one side, watching all that was going on with the three men.
Harry nodded. "How did this happen?" He looked really worried. Severus sat on the edge of the bed and was suddenly holding an armful of emotional Fae. Severus rubbed Harry's back in circles to allow the Fae to calm down. He kept this motion up and held his hand out when Draco returned. The boy placed the vial in Severus' hand and the man made Harry look at him. Harry's eyes were puffy from crying. He was quite upset. Severus kissed Harry's forehead and made him take the anti-toxin. Harry didn't fight, but he was still crying even after he finished taking it. He wouldn't let Severus go for anything. Draco also sat next to Harry and kissed the Fae's temple. The poor boy was wearing himself out.
Severus gathered the young Fae into his arms and rocked him, trying to soothe the almost silent sobs coming from him. "I don't know how it happened Harry, but we will find out and make sure it never happens again," Draco said as he leaned against the two of them and rocked with them, his arms around both Severus and Harry. "You're alright Harry and so are the children, they are fine, so will you be, all you need to do now is rest for awhile and join Ron in the land of sleep." Draco smiled as he kissed the soft black hair of his younger mate.
Harry shook his head. "I don't want to sleep." He chuckled, but instantly frowned as Dumbledore came in, holding Hermione by her upper arm. The look on Dumbledore's face wasn't a happy one. Severus and Draco's faces also became cold. Harry just buried his face into Severus' chest, not wishing to look at Hermione. Hermione on the other hand was struggling to get away from the tight grip the old man had on her arm.
"Headmaster, why have you brought her here?" Severus questioned the elderly and powerful wizard. He saw the hateful look that graced Hermione Granger's intelligent brown eyes. The intelligence was now replaced by a sense of wrath. Severus thought quietly to himself, that had this young witch remained on the good side she would have been someone special, now she was nothing more than an ignorant fool. He looked up towards the headmaster, waiting for his question to be answered.
"I've decided that those she has harmed shall be in attendance during her expulsion," Dumbledore replied, making Hermione sit in a chair, bound to it. She was rocking back and forth as she tried to get free. He looked at Harry who kept his face buried in Severus' chest and the glares that both Draco and Severus shared. He smiled. He had known that Severus and Draco were Harry's mates, but he wasn't about to say anything. He knew that Draco's father was a problem for them. He then looked at Hermione. "Ms. Granger, it has come to my attention, thanks to a certain house elf in attendance here, that you got one of our other house elves to poison Harry here."
No one noticed that the redhead in the other bed was wide awake and had been since Hermione had been brought in. He had woken because he felt that he was needed by Harry. "HOW COULD YOU?!" he shouted as he sat up in bed, not caring that he was hurting himself. "You had been his friend for seven years Hermione, SEVEN YEARS! How could you throw that away and then to do that to him, I mean the explosion in potions was bad enough, but to do that as well. You are a DISGRACE Granger and I hope that you rot in hell for what you have done to my best friend!" he continued his tirade at the stubborn young witch. "You'll never do magic again. I hope they give you the Kiss for this," he finished, his heart was sad that someone he once thought so much of had changed so much in so little time. His blue eyes were cold and like steel as he looked at the girl that stood before his friends, he now considered Severus and Draco his friends.
Harry turned his head and looked at Ron. He hadn't expected that outburst. He had felt Ron wake up. Hermione glared and was still struggling. "He's a bane on existence Ron, a freak of nature. Look at him. He's pregnant with a teacher's bastards. That's wrong and they should be terminated, all three of them. You don't know what Fae are like. They're evil Ron. They toy with people's lives." What she said was everything that had been true to Muggles, as Fae were unnaturally beautiful like the Veela, but in a sense she was wrong, as they only did such thing to Muggles in the middle ages. Her outburst however got glares from not only Severus and Draco, but Ron, Dumbledore and Madam Pomfrey. None of them were happy with her at all, but that was her own fault. In fact, the look on Dumbledore's face was the worst by far. The man had never truly lost the twinkle in his eye, but right at that moment it was gone and not coming back.
Dumbledore was fuming, never in all his years at Hogwarts had he come across a muggleborn student that had been prejudiced about any type of Fae, Vampire, anything. "Miss Granger I have never heard such talk from a student in this school." Dumbledore's voice was cold and hard, the anger was carefully controlled. The magic in the air around him crackled, showing all around him just how angry he was. "I was lenient with you for the last incident and gave you a warning. The punishment for this attack on a fellow student is expulsion, the snapping of your wand and trial; if found guilty, which I know you will, you will either be sentenced to life in Azkaban or the Dementor's Kiss," he told the young witch her punishment. "Your parents will be brought to the school. I know they will be greatly saddened by your actions and the consequences of them," he added as an afterthought.
Hermione's eyes widened at those words. She hadn't expected such a thing. In her mind she was ridding the world of such horrible creatures as she saw them. All that could be heard at that moment was Harry's crying into Severus' chest. He was hurt quite deeply by Hermione's actions. This wasn't likely to be a good thing for him. Dumbledore looked at Poppy, who nodded and got the wand that had been placed into her care earlier. It was Hermione's wand, but she handed it over to Dumbledore. He took it in his hands and snapped it, as if it were nothing more than a feather. He then dropped the pieces to the ground and incinerated them with his own wand. He wanted to make sure that there was no way she would get a chance to use her wand ever again. He wanted them gone. Her eyes had gotten wider as her wand was burned in front of her. Dumbledore then levitated her chair up and walked to the door, it was following behind him. He nodded to the others and left, no doubt going to inform the Ministry to come and take her away. There was a slight crackle of the flames where Hermione's wand had been getting ready to go out, other then that, it was still just Harry crying.
Poppy went out of the room to get a calming draught for Harry. Ron, seeing his chance to go to his friend, got up off his bed once again and stumbled over to the trio. Draco, seeing his new friend stumbling towards the bed, got up quickly and helped the young man to the bed, lying him down. Severus, seeing the redhead joining them on the bed, got Harry to lie down next to his friend. Ron wrapped his arms around his friend like he did when Harry had nightmares. Unconsciously sending calming waves to the young Fae, soon he went back to sleep. Harry began to calm a little from the influence of his heart brother.
It didn't take long for Harry to drift off like that. Severus smiled. "They are heart brothers." He looked at Draco. "You're worried, aren't you?" He knew he was worried about Harry, but he saw how Ron helped Harry and it didn't matter. Madam Pomfrey came back and saw Harry asleep and smiled. She then walked off, leaving them alone again. Draco sank to his knees and kissed Harry's temple. Severus bent over and did the same thing.
"Yeah I am worried slightly, my father is going to find out soon, I can feel it. The time I have spent with you both have been the best in my entire life. I would never give it up, I don't care if he disinherits me, I have you and Harry and that is all I need." He looked confident in his decision. With a flick of his wand the bed became bigger enough to fit at least six people on it. Severus scooped Draco into his arms and lay down next to Harry, keeping Draco on top of him. Soon they joined the two heart brothers in sleep. Each one of them had a small contented smile on their faces.
