Draco
hurried back into the hospital wing, determined he was going to help Harry with
this and that he was not going to let Harry send him away.

 

Harry
was sitting on his bed, with his head upon his knees. Fragments of broken
glasses were lying next to the bed, obviously slammed on to the ground in
frustration.

 

Draco
stood before the oblivious Harry and took in a deep breath, making Harry snap
up his head.

 

“Harry,
I want you to hear me out,” Draco said as calm as possible.

 

“How
dare you come in here again?” Harry said through gritted teeth.

 

“Because
I love you,” Draco said, walking closer, but when Harry gave him a glare he
stopped in his tracks and decided he was close enough for now.

 

“I
thought that I told you to Sod. Off.” Harry fumed.

 

“Well
I obviously I’m not going to sod off,” Draco said stubbornly. “Now quit
interrupting me and listen to what I have to say.”

 

Harry
glared, but remained silent.

 

“I’m
not going to let you push me away like this. I tried to be honest a minute ago,
because let’s be honest about this. This isn’t exactly the perfect timing to
have a child,” Draco said, trying to remain calm. Harry was looking at his fingernails
as if he had nothing important to say. “Harry stop that!”

 

“Why?”
Harry asked. “I heard this all before. Wrong time, perfect excuse to back out
of this.”

 

“Harry!
Damn it! Stop jumping to conclusions and listen to me,” Draco yelled, clenching
his fists. “I wish the situation was different, but for now we are both in
trouble. That doesn’t mean I want you to remove that baby! Even I am Gryffindor
enough not to want that. I love you and I will not leave you to cope with this
all by yourself. I am responsible too for this baby and even though the timing
is bad. I do want this baby and don’t even think you can send me away,”

 

Harry
was biting his lip and sighed. “So what do we do now?”

 

Draco
moved closer and sat on the bed next to Harry. “About what?”

 

“The
baby. Your parents. My school,” Harry said, placing his hands on his stomach.

 

“We
will manage Harry. My parents can walk to hell if they don’t want to accept the
fact that I’m going to have a baby and raise it with you. Your school will be
just fine. The baby will be born after you graduate,” Draco said, grabbing on
of Harry’s hands and squeezing it.

 

“I’m
sorry I send you away. I just freaked out. I mean... my whole life is messed up
right now,” Harry said, crawling towards Draco.

 

Draco
pulled Harry on his lap and hugged him tightly. Harry began to sob softly,
burying his face in Draco’s neck.

 

Draco
stroked Harry’s hair and waited until Harry was calmed down. “Shh... it’s going
to be alright. We will get through this.” Draco whispered over and over into
Harry’s ear.

 

-

 

A
few minutes later Madame Pomfrey re-entered the hospital wing and walked
directly towards them. She pretended not to see Harry’s red eyes.

 

“Are
you two ready now?” she asked friendly.

 

Draco
nodded and felt Harry freeze in his arms.

 

“First
of all I want to examine Mr. Potter,” Madame Pomfrey said. “I need to know in
which state he is.”

 

“Harry
had a stab of pain a few minutes ago. Is that bad?” Draco asked, concerned.

 

“Well
it’s a sign that Mr. Potter’s body adapting to the womb. For now you can
compare the womb with a pear, where the baby grows in. Of course all the blood
vessels and veins are still connected to the womb, supplying it with blood, but
other than that everything is gone. Mr. Potter had no vagina, so there is a
problem. Luckily we have magic to help us. There are, like I told Mr. Potter
earlier, two ways to give birth to the baby. The Magical way; I will remove the
baby magically out of the womb, when the contractions are at their worst point.
Or I can magically make the anus similar to the vagina, when the baby is about
to be born.” Madame Pomfrey explained. “But you don’t have to decide that now.
Mr. Potter remove your clothing please.”

Draco
released Harry and let Harry undress himself. Harry was blushing in crimson by
the time he was done and sat down on the bed again. Draco looked the other way
knowing he would be in a really embarrassing situation if he did look at
Harry’s naked body.

 

Madame
Pomfrey moved towards Harry examined him. Draco walked out of the hospital wing
and murmured, “Call me when you are done,”

 

Draco
sat down outside hoe hospital wing. Hermione and Ron were gone, probably to eat
Dinner. Madame Pomfrey seemed to take forever and Draco slowly became worried.
He stepped back into the hospital wing and moved towards Harry’s bed once
again.

 

“Are
you almost finished?” Draco asked, his hand tracing along the curtain.

 

“Yes,
Mr. Malfoy, we are.” Madame Pomfrey said opening the curtain. Never in his
whole his life he had seen Madame Pomfrey smile so much.

 

Harry
was sitting on his bed, looking a bit stunned. Draco frowned and turned to
Madame Pomfrey. “Is everything alright?”

 

“Everything
is splendid!” Madame Pomfrey beamed. “I gave Mr. Potter some potions to take
away the adapting pains he’s been having. I think Mr. Potter will like to tell
you everything else. If you have any questions just come to me. Oh.. and Mr.
Malfoy, I expect you to take care of Mr. Potter in every way you can.”

 

Draco
stared at Madame Pomfrey, a little shocked by the threatening tone in her
voice. He nodded quickly and walked towards Harry.

 

Harry
was lying underneath the covers still undressed. Draco’s cheeks flushed when he
noticed that fact and he quickly moved his gaze towards Harry’s still startled
face. “Harry?” Draco asked, sitting on the bed next to Harry. “Are you ok?”

 

Harry
looked him in the eye and nodded, looking at him as if he was wondering how
Draco got next to him so soon.

 

“How
is the baby?” Draco asked, frowning.

 

“Babies.”

 

“Yes,
baby.” Draco said, wondering why Harry was acting so weird.

 

“No,
Draco, Babies.” Harry said, while a little smile played on his lips.

 

“What?”
Draco practically yelled. “You mean there’s two?” Draco looked at Harry’s
stomach totally in shock.

 

Harry
nodded, laughing at Draco’s reaction. “There was some kind of positive feedback
in my stomach while I turned back into a boy, causing the baby to become a
twin.”

 

“You
mean replicate?” Draco asked, imagining two exactly the same boys hobbling around.


 

“No.
The embryo was still parting and so one embryo became two separate embryo’s.
According to Madam Pomfrey they babies won’t even be alike.” Harry smiled.
“Isn’t this great? I mean, yeah twice the trouble, but imagine how cute they’ll
be,”

 

Draco’s
heart skipped a few beats when he saw Harry so happy.

 

“You
know... I never knew I wanted this baby-s, until I was waiting outside
terrified that something would happen to the both of you,” Draco said, causing
Harry to smile even wider. Harry pulled Draco down into a long hug.

 

There
was a short comfortable silence before Harry suddenly said. “Oh, and I don’t
get breasts!”

 

Draco
snorted. “What?”

 

“Well
I thought I would get breasts again, you know... I have to feed them, but I don’t!”
Harry said, obviously relieved about the fact. “I was scared to death to be
male and have two balloons on my chest, as if something had gone wrong with the
potion,”

 

Draco
laughed, kissing Harry’s forehead. “So where will they drink now?”

 

“Out
of the bottle. Madame Pomfrey says that she has some good spells to turn milk
into breast-milk,” Harry said.

 

“That’s
great!” Draco smiled, lying down next to Harry.

 

Harry
quickly cuddled close to Draco. “When are you going back?”

 

“I
don’t know.” Draco said. He had been asking himself the same question. “I guess
I’ll have to go back soon. Can’t disappear for long or someone will notice.
I’ll have to go to Dumbledore,”

 

“Not
right now, right?” Harry asked, clutching on to Draco without noticing.

 

“I’ll
stay here until you’re asleep,” Draco decided. “but Dumbledore said that he had
something to discuss with me,”

 

“Ow.”
Harry said, his voice dripping with disappointment. “I wish you could stay
longer.”

 

Draco
quickly gave Harry a kiss, he couldn’t stand to hear the disappointment and
sadness in Harry’s voice. “I wish I could stay longer too. I feel bad about not
being here, while our babies grow inside you.”

 

“It’s
nearly Christmas. We’ll meat each other in Hogsmeade,” Harry said, not only to
cheer Draco up.

 

Draco
didn’t reply. He didn’t know exactly how to reply. Surely they would see each
other, but they would be in a public place. No intimate kissing, nothing. Just
imagine what his father would do to him when he found out that his son had a
secret meeting with Harry Potter in Hogsmeade. The papers would be full of it.

 

“We
could go somewhere secret, or get a hotel room,” Harry whispered.

 

“Harry!”
Draco said surprised, looking down on the brown haired boy.

 

Harry
blushed in crimson. “It was just a suggestion,” he said, avoiding Draco’s eyes.

 

“What
did I do to deserve you?” Draco asked, grinning. “You are the most cutest guy
on earth. And so beautiful... so beautiful,”

 

Harry
kissed him softly, treasuring every single second the sweet kiss lasted.

After
few minutes Draco noticed that Harry had fallen asleep. He had almost fallen
asleep when Severus suddenly walked into the Hospital wing, looking concerned.

 

“Mr
Malfoy, what are you doing here?” Severus asked sternly.

 

“I
am paying Harry a visit,” Draco answered, wondering why Severus was there.

 

“I
want you to go back as soon as possible,” Severus said, crossing his arms over
his chest.

 

Draco
frowned. “Why?”

 

“Because
you know as well as I do that your father is not going to be pleased when he
hears this,” Severus said, raising one eyebrow.

 

“He’s
not going to find out,” Draco said, although he became a bit worried. “I am
sure that professor Dumbledore will make sure that my father won’t know a
thing,”

 

Severus
raised his eyebrows. “Not if your father already knows. Apparently a Slytherin
saw you here and contacted your father immediately. Of course I will punish
that person immediately, as soon as I find a way to do so.”

 

“My
father knows” Draco shuddered by the thought.

 

“Yes,
I am afraid that professor Dumbledore couldn’t prevent this from happening.
There are a few students in Slytherin, who aren’t pleased with your
re-appearance.” Severus said.

 

“I
see,” Draco said, feeling betrayed. He was quite sure that Thomas King had
something to do with this. “So what am I to do?”

 

“Go
back to your new school as soon as possible. Preferably now,” Severus said,
dead serious. Draco would have thought it was a joke that he had to leave Harry
already, if Severus hadn’t been so serious.

 

“Now?”
Draco asked, just to be sure.

 

“Yes.
Now.” Severus said, looking Draco right into the eye.

 

Draco
sighed. “I don’t want to go now. If what you say is true and my father already
knows about the situation, then it wouldn’t matter if I stayed a bit longer. I
really don’t want to leave Harry alone so soon.” Draco said.

 

Severus
raised his eyebrows. “I strongly advise you not to stay, Draco. You know as
well as I do that your father will not leave you unpunished.”

 

“I’ll
be punished anyway. I’ll take the risk. Thank you, Severus, for warning me.”
Draco said, shivering by the thought of what his punishment might be.

 

Severus
nodded, obviously not happy with the results of their little chat. “I wish I
could order you to go, but I am no longer the head of your house. Which means
that I can no longer protect you from your father as a teacher, but I will try
to help you as a friend.”

 

Draco
smiled. He had always known that there was some humanity in the man. “Thank you,
Severus. I really do appreciate it, but I chose for Harry. Harry needs me right
now and it would kill him if I left so suddenly. I promise that I will go back
soon,” Draco said, still smiling.

 

Severus
flashed him a smile too, before walking out.

 

He
placed a few kisses on Harry’s forehead and sighed. Why did everything had to
be so damn complicated? He studied Harry’s face, to make sure that this time
Harry didn’t overhear anything. But Harry was sleeping like a little angel in
his arms. Harry was probably exhausted with all the stress around the little
baby, no babies, in his stomach.

 

Draco
decided that he should probably go to Dumbledore right now. Although he was
very reluctant to go.

 

Draco
stood up, making sure that Harry was lying comfortable and didn’t notice that
he was gone. He made his way to Dumbledore’s office, looking around to see if
he could spot Blaise anywhere. He really wanted to know, who he had to blame
for his father knowing. He didn’t see Blaise and decided to send him a letter when
he was back at his new school.

 

To
Draco’s surprise the statue had already moved aside when he stood in front of
the entrance to Dumbledore’s office.

 

He
quickly walked up the stairs, not wanting to waste more time then necessary.
“Professor Dumbledore?” he called, even before he opened the door.

 

“Draco,
please, have a seat.” Dumbledore said, sitting behind his office.

 

Draco
sat down nervously.

 

“Would
you like a cup of tea or a Lem-”

 

“Cup
of tea would be fine,” Draco cut Dumbledore off.

 

Dumbledore
poured the tea in two cups and handed one to Draco. “I wanted to talk to you
about Harry’s situation. Well the situation of the both of you.”

 

Draco
nodded and nipped his tea.

 

“I
know you care about Harry, but I don’t know if you see the importance of your
presence during the pregnancy. Harry will need you. That is why I wanted to
negotiate with your father to see if he would let you move back,” Dumbledore
continued. “but there are a few problems. I will try my best, Draco, but I
can’t promise anything.”

 

Draco
smiled. “I really appreciate it, sir, but I don’t think it will work. It is Harry Potter we’re talking about.”
Draco sighed.

 

“I
know,” Dumbledore said, staring in front of him. “and the fact that your father
knows about your presence here is not going to help our case in any way. Of
course I will deny everything, but your father is a smart man. He knows that I
must have helped to get you here.”

 

“Professor?
I really want to be with Harry and I will stay with Harry even after the
pregnancy.” Draco said, not knowing what else to say.

 

To
Draco’s surprise a big smile appeared on Dumbledore’s lips. “I wouldn’t have
expected otherwise, besides I think you would be in a lot of trouble if you
didn’t. I will talk with your father and see if there is anything I can do to
make him realise that sending you to another school is not going to make a
difference.”

 

“Thank
you, professor,” Draco said, smiling. He knew that even Dumbledore wasn’t going
to change his fahter’s mind and it might make his punishment longer, but well
maybe it would help. Right now he would do anything to stay with Harry.

 

“I
will pick you up in an hour and a half to take you back to your school,”
Dumbledore said, finishing his cup of tea as Draco had finished it a few
seconds ago.

 

“May
I be excused?” Draco asked.

 

Dumbledore
nodded. “Draco you are a good man,” he said, looking over his glasses.

 

Draco
smiled and hurried out of Dumbledore’s office again. This time he didn’t run to
the hospital wing, well not as fast as the fist time.

 

When
he entered the hospital wing again, he saw to his relieve that Harry was still
sleeping. He walked towards the bed and quietly sat on the place where he had
been lying a while ago. He saw that Harry’s arms were still lying around his,
now missing, body. Harry was currently holding air.

 

Draco
settled back in place and pressed their bodies against each other. He hated the
thought of leaving so quickly.

 

Draco
stook the time to do something he would be ashamed of when Harry was awake. He
pushed himself down until he was on the same level as Harry’s belly and gently
touched it with his fingertops. He couldn’t believe that he and Harry actually
made babies. Ok... you heard it all the time around you, but you never really
understand until you made them yourself. It was so unreal. To think that two
babies will grow inside you. Two little humans.

 

After
caressing Harry’s belly for a while, he moved back up and kissed Harry on his
mouth. Harry’s eyes fluttered open immediately. “Oh sorry, love, I didn’t want
to wake you,” Draco whispered.

 

Harry
smiled, not fully awake yet and moved his face closer to Draco’s. Harry pressed
their lips together again and let Draco kiss him awake. “Mmm... no better way
to wake up,” Harry murmured, crawling even closer to Draco. Harry placed his
head on his favourite place, the spot between Draco’s neck an shoulder. He knew
that it tickled Draco when he breathed, but that was the funny part.

 

Draco
was so lost in thought that he didn’t even notice that Harry was tickling him
again.

 

“Draco?
Is something wrong?” Harry asked, when Draco didn’t even smile.

 

Draco
looked down, meeting Harry’s eyes. He knew that he had to tell Harry. It wasn’t
fair to hide this from him, even if it could ruin the whole mood. “I really
have to go back soon, Harry.”

 

“I
know, you already told me that.” Harry said. “Did you meet Dumbledore when I
was asleep?”

 

“Yes,”
Draco nodded. “He’s picking me up in an hour to go back,”

 

“Is
there anything else bugging you?” Harry asked, studying Draco’s face.

 

Draco
shook his head, knowing he was lying to Harry. He didn’t want Harry to worry
about him, while Harry was busy with their babies. His fahter’s punishment
wouldn’t be different this time... he hoped. The look in Harry’s eyes told him
that Harry didn’t believe him, but to his relieve Harry let it go and settled
back into his neck. Draco kissed his forehead and moved down. “I love you,”
Draco whispered, looking in Harry’s eyes.

 

Harry
smiled. “I love you too,” Harry whispered back, hungrily kissing Draco’s lips.

 

Draco
let their lips move against each other for a while, before using his tongue to
wetten Harry’s lips. His hands were in Harry’s hair and on Harry’s bare back, pulling
the dark haired boy closer. Harry’s tongue dartled out too, playing with
Draco’s and deepening their kiss. Draco’s leg moved between Harry’s legs,
making Harry gasp. Harry’s twinkling and excited eyes met his.

 

“Is
it possible to... you know... when you’re pregnant?” Harry whispered, blushing.

 

Draco
smiled. “Of course! Did you actually think that I was going to leave you alone
for nine months.”

 

Harry
smiled naughtily and kissed Draco again. Harry licked his lips, driving Draco mad
and kissed Draco again.

 

“But
I... I don’t think it’s such a good idea to do something here,” Draco said,
panting slightly. “We could get caught,”

 

Harry’s
lips moved in a pout. “I had to live without your touch far too long.” he said.

 

“What
about me? I’m this close to ravishing you here and now,” Draco whispered
against Harry’s lips.

 

“We
could snog now,” Harry offered.

 

Draco
smiled. “I can’t wait until Christmas,” Draco whispered, kissing Harry again.

 

“Yes,
but then the roles will be different. Then I get to be on top,” Harry smirked
wickedly.

 

Draco’s
eyes grew big. “A Malfoy’s always on top!” he exclaimed

 

“Not
this time,” Harry grinned.

 

“We’ll
see about that!” Draco growled, squeezing Harry’s arousal softly. Grinning when
Harry yelped and blushed in crimson.

 

“You!
Now you’ll have to release me before you go or I’ll go mad!” Harry growled
back.

 

“Sure
Darling, anything to keep you happy.” Draco smiled, moving his hands into
Harry’s boxers.

 

Harry
moved closer and kissed Draco inbetween squirming and moaning. “I really do
love you Draco Malfoy,” Harry said panting.
