Chosen Prompt: Christmas Yule Log

Chapter 20:

When the night was finally over Draco allowed Harry and the boys to come back to his house so they could burn the Christmas Yule log together. As the log burnt the boys were singing songs and Draco and Harry sat on the couch just enjoying the time. Draco turned to look at Harry and watched him and he watched the boys. He could see the love and caring behind Harry's eyes as he looked at all three of them and Draco knew Harry wouldn't treat Tobias any differently then the other two. Harry turned just then and stared into Draco's eyes and he thought the other man was trying to convey his emotions for Draco as well.

"Draco can we talk?" Harry asked as he stood up and put a hand out to help Draco off the couch.

"Alright. Boys we will be right back down, watch the log burn and play some games after." Draco said getting nods in return from all three boys. He took Harry's hand and let the other man guide him up the stairs and into his room.

"Sit." Draco said and sat on the bed as Harry sat beside him.

"I know you are having trouble with letting me in and after tonight I was hoping you would change your mind but I don't think that is happening." Harry stated. Draco waited till he was done so he knew where this was going. "But I'm not going to give up. I love you Draco and I want all of us to become a family, a real family together. I love Tobias and I missed so much of his life. I hate being away from him all the time." Harry said.

"I understand that Harry, and I hate being away from Maliki and Draconis also. They are my sons and I love them very much, as I do you." He saw Harry's eyes open in surprise at his words. "It's just hard to give you my trust because of our past, but I am willing to try and work this out together." He watched as Harry's smiled spread wide across his face and was tackled to the bed, Harry now laying half way on top of him.

"Um Harry now isn't." He began only to be interrupted by Harry kissing him softly on the lips.

"I know now is not the time, but I wanted to kiss you. Merlin I love you Draco and I'm so happy you are willing to let me back into your life. I will prove everyday that I love you and win back your trust as much as I can, if not fully. Now let's get back down to the boys." Harry said grabbing Draco's hand and dragging him back down the stairs.
