New years From Sète



Chapter 2: Happy New Year!



The fire in the hearth of the senior Malfoy\'s villa turned green, and out tumbled two young wizards at 1:00 in the morning. One just happened to be Draco Malfoy, and he was fuming mad. He was till clutching onto his fiancé\'s cloak when he pulled Harry to the foot of the great staircase that led to the first floors rooms.



"Can Toddy be helping master Draco this morning"? A house elf said as it appeared in front of the storming wizard.



"Yes Toddy, could you please wake my father"! Draco grit out with his teeth clenched.



"Toddy will be doing that master Draco, just a moment". Toddy said and popped out of sight.



Draco then wheeled around on Harry, and pointed to the couch in the sitting room. "SIT"!



"First Draco, I am not a dog, so don\'t tell me to sit. Second, you never allowed me to explain through all of your caterwauling. So, Have Lucius come down, since you want to spoil his surprise too"! Harry growled out, but did take a seat on the couch.



All Harry could think about was fucking things up yet again with his lover. \'Why can\'t I just seem to get one thing right’? Harry thought. At this he dropped his head in his hands and waited.



"Draco, what is the meaning of this? Do you know it is past 1:00 in the morning"? Lucius asked as he swept down the stairs.



"I\'ll tell you what it is father, I caught Harry cheating on me, and in a seedy brothel in Knockturn Alley no less"! Draco seethingly replied.



Lucius frowned at his son, and walked into the sitting room, where he sat just across from Harry\'s slumped body. "Harry, would you care to explain what Draco is whinging about"?



Harry pulled his head from his hands and looked wearily at Lucius. "Well, er, Draco\'s not lying when he said he saw me come out of a brothel. However, it is not what he thinks was going on. It was actually for a surprise for you both". Harry explained as he shook his head. "I cooked up a plan to get even with someone, but wanted to wait for you two to see it in the Prophet before you found out".



"Would you mind informing me of what this plan is, since Draco seems to think you had an affair with someone"? Lucius asked as he looked at his gobsmacked son.



"Well, since he has acted the way he has, I don\'t want him to know until it happens. Can we do this privately"? Harry asked as he looked at Draco and smirked.



Lucius quickly cast a Imperturbable charm, after telling Draco to wait in his study. After Draco stormed off, he continued on. "Yes, Harry, now tell me what happened".



"Well you see, I told Draco to go back home, and I would meet him at the villa after we finished with the building. I was afraid he may get these ideas in his head, and I did not want him around the likes that live in the brothel in mention. Unfortunately, He slipped and followed me under my invisibility cloak. He stayed outside, and waited for two hours, which I never thought it would take that long. However, when the madam escorted me out, she was wearing next to nothing, so Draco got the idea I was cheating on him".



Upon Lucius\'s nod, Harry soldiered on. "Well, you see, what I actually went there for was this....". Harry said as he began to finish his tale.

Draco was still storming mad, because now, he couldn\'t hear what actually happened. He then walked to Lucius liqueur cabinet, threw open the door, and grabbed a bottle of firewhiskey. He yanked out the cork with his teeth, and began to drink it in large gulps. He never let the burn get to him, and it was actually warming his cold bones where he had stood outside for two bleeding hours.



"Fuck this, I want to know what the hell happened"! Draco growled out, and stomped back toward the sitting room. When he got there, Lucius was just dropping the Imperturbable charm, and rolling with laughter.



"You can check me with Veritaserum if you like Lucius, I would never cheat on him". Harry said; not noticing Draco walking back into view.



"Yes father, I wish you would pour a hole bottle down his throat, as I find it hard to believe him after what I saw"! Draco almost shouted.



Lucius finally calmed down his fit of laughter, and spoke to Draco with a chortle. "Calm down son, I totally believe him. Oh this is rich, and I wish I could be a fly on the wall when it happens. Truly, he should have been a Slytherin, truly"! Lucius exclaimed. "Come Draco, have a seat, and calm yourself. Nothing bad has happened at all. Harry\'s interviews took a little longer than expected is all". Lucius finished with a grin at his only son.



"Interviews, what bloody interviews"? Draco asked, truly not understanding his father taking up for the lying cheater.



"That\'s all I will tell you about what happened Draco. You will just have to believe me and your fiancé about this". Lucius stated with a serious expression now on his face.



"Lucius, if you have any Veritaserum, and its counter, I would gladly allow you to question me about whether I am true to Draco or not". Harry said as he glared at Draco.



"Yes Harry, I do have some of both, but I do not need it to know you speak the truth". Lucius explained as he glared at Draco himself.



"No, I would like you to ask me about my loyalty to him, and that is all. However, I only want you to ask the questions, not Draco. Please, I ask this of you". Harry said with a solemn look about him.



"All right, I shall do it, and Draco, you will sit still, and not open your trap"! Lucius said as he opened a drawer on the coffee table in front of him. He withdrew a small wooden box, lifted its lid, and took out two small glass phials. He then sat them on the table, and put the box away. Next, Lucius proceeded to open the one with the clear liquid, and dropped three drops onto Harry\'s tongue. When Draco started to open his mouth, Lucius quickly pointed his wand at Draco, and muttered "Langlock". Draco could only grunt now as his tongue was stuck to the roof of his mouth. "I told you, not one word"!



Harry\'s eyes became glazed over, and Lucius saw that the truth serum had worked as it should. Lucius looked back at Draco, and saw that he had a hateful scowl now marring his face.



"All Right Harry, what is your whole name"? Lucius asked.



"Harry James Potter, hopefully to be Potter-Malfoy.



Lucius grinned at this, as neither young man had ever mentioned the name change. "Harry, do you love my son"?



"Yes, with all my heart and soul" Harry said in a monotone voice.



"Have you ever cheated on Draco, Harry"? Lucius asked with a blush on his cheeks.



"Never! I would never be with anyone else but Draco". Harry said with a slight slur to his voice.



"Did you have an affair, or cheat on him tonight, while at the brothel in Knockturn Alley"? Lucius asked, and cleared his throat.



"No I did not. Several tried to get me to, but I would not give them the pleasure". Harry finished, and blinked his eyes.



"I think that is all Harry". Lucius said as he put three drops of the antidote on Harry\'s tongue. He waited for five minutes before he removed the hex from Draco.



"I didn\'t think that was funny father, not one bit"! Draco said with a sneer. He then looked at Harry, and was suddenly ashamed of himself.



"Harry, I\'m really sorry. When I saw that slut walk out with you, without hardly anything on, and when she had the nerve to brush her hand down your shoulder, I guess I kind of freaked out. I\'m really sorry my lion, I should have known better". Draco finished with a sigh, and dropped his head, looking at the floor.



"Yes Draco, you should be sorry. First, I tried to explain, but you would have none of it. Then you practically dragged me back to the bank, making it possible that someone could have possibly spotted us. Next, you shout at me once we get here. Yes, you have some serious making up to do". Harry evenly stated as he glared at Draco. "Now Lucius, I am very sorry that I disturbed you. I will now take my leave if that is all right with you"? Harry asked, and upon Lucius\'s nod, Harry stormed back to their villa.





When Draco started to get up to follow, Lucius grabbed his elbow, and steered him back into the chair. "Sit, and I do mean now"!



Draco gave his father a rather petulant look, as he sat back down. "I\'ll have you know father, that I haven\'t been sixteen in some years now, and I do as I please".



"When you are in mine and your mother\'s home, you will act by my rules. I would not care if you were thirty, you will sit and listen". Lucius stated with a glare. "Harry knew how you would react, and that is the very reason he did not want you to accompany him into Knockturn Alley". At this, Draco started to speak, but Lucius cut him off by raising his hand. "I fully understand that you were hurt when you left London, and that you do not want anything to happen to Harry". Lucius stated, and paused for effect. "Son, you will have to learn to curb some of your temper, or you two will never make it. Harry did this for a present, and a surprise for you and I. Now, you have destroyed the surprise for me, but I will not tell you what he has done, except to say that he has done nothing wrong. If I were you, I would pray that he is not mad enough to leave, and never come back".



Draco squirmed in his seat for a moment. "Is it all right now if I take my leave"?



"Yes, you may go, but Draco, give him some time, and space to cool off". Lucius said, and then followed Draco to the back entrance.

Draco practically ran through his and Harry\'s villa, up the stairs, and into their bedroom. Once inside though, he came to an abrupt halt. Expecting to find Harry nuzzled in their bed, Draco noticed the bedding had never been tipped.



"He\'s left, just like father said". Draco whimpered. "No, he couldn\'t have, he wouldn\'t leave me for something like this, surely"? Draco questioned himself as he turned and fled the room.



Once downstairs, he searched the kitchen, and their study, but it still did not turn up any sign of Harry. He glanced into the dark sitting room, and did not see him sitting anywhere. "No"! Draco whimpered again. Finally, he walked into the sitting room proper, and noticed Harry stretched out on the couch asleep, with a cover pulled up over him. "He doesn\'t want to be near me anymore". Draco choked out, with a sound of utter dread in his voice. Finally, after what seemed like several minutes, Draco softly walked over to a chair, retrieving a pillow, and a shawl. He then made room between the couch and table, and lay down on the floor beside Harry. Once his head hit the pillow, he started to shake and cry. "Please don\'t leave me, never leave me".

Harry was having a nightmare. He had been kidnapped, and knew that if Draco had been with him, this would never have happened. He found himself bound in chains, and was being taunted by several people who were calling him a filthy and vile little faggot, and that they would kill him slowly over it. All he could think about was why did he tell Draco to let him go on this trip alone. Finally, as Ron started to stick a red-hot iron to his chest, he suddenly woke up.



"Oh God"! Harry muttered under his breath, and began to look around the dark room. "Wait, this isn\'t my bedroom, and where is Draco"? Harry said as he looked down at the floor and was startled. There, scrunched up in a fetal position, and silently crying was Draco. He stared for what seemed like an hour, but it had only been a few minutes, at Draco as he shook, and he listened to what he was mumbling to himself over and over. Finally, Harry couldn\'t take it anymore, and reached down to slowly push a lock of blond hair behind Draco\'s ear.



"Ha-ha-rry? Are you awake"? Draco asked rather timidly.



"Yes dragon, I am. Now, let me get you to bed". Harry softly said as he stood, lifted Draco up into his arms, and carried his blond mate upstairs to their bedroom.

Harry woke the next morning at 10:00, and actually felt rather rested. He was lying on his side, and felt Draco\'s leg wrapped over his own. He also felt Draco\'s morning erection pressing into the cleft of his bum. Harry thought back to the night before, and felt kind of glad that Draco was that jealous over him. He was the only one that ever really was when he thought back about it. Everyone else, whom he had dated before he and Draco had gotten together, only wanted him for his name and money, but not Draco. Harry let a little smirk cross his face at this, and he began to move his bum against Draco\'s cock. When he heard a little moan escape Draco\'s pouty lips, he did it again. Finally, Draco woke up, and pulled Harry tight against him.



"Good morning my lion, are you still pissed off at me over last night"? Draco hesitantly asked.



"No, I kinda made a stubborn arse out of myself too". Harry said with a snort.



"Well, I guess we were made for each other after all, hmm"? Draco said as he gave a small hunch forward, allowing his cock to rub against Harry\'s firm arse.



"Oh God, please Draco, make love to me, and make me happy again. I had an awful nightmare last night over what happened. I woke from it, and found you beside me on the floor". Harry said as he ended with a low moan.



Draco did as Harry asked, and started to nip at and kiss Harry\'s entire body. When Harry was practically writhing in the bed, he slid down the mattress to take Harry\'s aching cock into his mouth. As he sucked and played with the swollen flesh, he began to add fingers into Harry\'s tight heat. He had never felt so horny in his entire life as he had right then.



"Harry, I am going to make love to you hard this morning, I just wanted you to know". Draco exclaimed as he slid up to ravish Harry\'s mouth with his own.



"Please Draco, I can\'t stand any more, please take me". Harry said as he threw his head back to give Draco better access to his neck.



Draco set back on his haunches, placed Harry\'s legs over his shoulders, and then leant forward to slowly impale Harry on his turgid cock. Draco then slowly began to move at Harry\'s signal, making sure he gave a quick little jab so as to stimulate Harry\'s prostate with each thrust. He began to speed up, as neither could understand the gibberish they each were belting out.



Finally, Draco took Harry\'s cock in his right hand, matching the pulls with his thrusts, and both climaxed simultaneously. "Oh God help me". Draco mumbled out, as he shakily dropped on top of his mate. He was just shaking too much to lie down softly.



When the two young wizards caught their breath, they held each other, and softly talked up until noon that day. Afterwards, they got up, showered, and made their way back to bed for a nice late breakfast that Winky had brought to them.

"Well Lucius, do you think they have made up over last night"? Narcissa asked as she took a sip of tea.



"Yes, I think they must have, as Draco would have already been here if they had not". Lucius explained, as he thought about what had occurred the night before. "I have to go over there in a short while, so I will let you know how things are between them".



"Yes, please do. They have both been through so much lately, and it is a wonder that they have not yet snapped". Narcissa replied. "Maybe we could take them out for dinner this evening, as I quite feel like going out".



"Shopping"? Lucius asked as a violent shiver ran down his back. Going with Narcissa to shop would kill any normal and sane man.



"No my dear husband, you have been granted a reprieve for today. I shall be doing that while you are with the boys, and we can go to eat after I return". Narcissa said with a slight laugh.



\'Thank Merlin\', Lucius thought. "All right my dear, I shall see you when you return. I think I will go over to see the boys now". Lucius said as he quickly stood, and made his way outside before she could change her mind.

"Master Harry, master Draco, master Lucius is waiting downstairs in the sitting room". Kreecher said as he had just popped into view at the foot of their bed.



"Bugger all! Tell father we\'ll be down in a minute". Draco said as he slid out of bed.



"No more buggering for me today, thanks"! Harry said with a grin, in which Draco swatted him on the arm.



Both Harry and Draco quickly dressed, and made their way downstairs to meet Lucius.



"Hello father, what brings you by this fine day"? Draco enquired as he made Harry and himself some tea.



Lucius cocked his eyebrow up at Draco\'s giddy behavior. "Ah, I see you two have worked out your differences from last night"?



"Yes we have. There really wasn\'t a lot to work out really". Harry explained as he took his cup of tea. "We were both in the wrong, and after the terrible dream I had, I will never have Draco leave me again".



"What dream would that be"? Lucius asked as he sipped his tea.



"I dreamed that I was kidnapped, and chained to a dungeon wall. Ron, Ginny, Hermione, and several others were there taunting me. Ron finally picked up a hot branding iron, and was about to burn me on the chest with it when I woke up. I never want another dream like that. All I could think of was why I had not let Draco accompany me so it wouldn\'t have happened". Harry finished with a shiver running down his back.



"I\'ll never allow that to happen"! Draco exclaimed as he clenched the chair arms with white knuckles. "You know that Harry, I never would, I promise".



"I know Draco, but that dream was so real that it actually scared me, and I don\'t scare easily anymore". Harry said as he looked fondly upon his lover.



Lucius then cleared his throat to break the sexual tension in the air. One look at the bruises on Harry\'s throat told him what they had been up to since last night. "Good, now what I am here for is that Narcissa wanted the two of you to join us for dinner this evening".



"She doesn\'t want to go shopping does she"? Harry nervously asked.



"Harry"! Draco exclaimed.



"No Harry she will be doing that while I am here with you two today. By the way, I feel the same as you do". Lucius said as he shivered again and quickly took another sip of tea.



"Father"! Draco exclaimed again, clearly aghast at what he said.



Lucius merely grinned at Draco at this. "Now, tell me what you are having those contractors to build as far as the pool"?



As Harry started to reply, a large barn owl swooped through the special owl window that was installed at the rear entrance of the house. It flew immediately to Harry, and lit on the coffee table, holding out it\'s leg.



"Harry, that happens to be a letter from the French ministry by the looks of it. You better open it and see what it says". Draco said with a frown.



Harry quickly relieved the large bird of its parcel, and it flew back out of the room, not waiting to be fed. He broke the seal, and quickly read over the contents. When he was finished, his head snapped up to look at both Draco and Lucius. "They are requesting my presence, and said that we have a visitor from London. Quickly Draco, floo Mr. Brikkens, and also the barristers we use here. Tell them to meet us at the French ministers office at 12:00 noon".



"What do they want Harry, I need to know before we go"? Lucius worriedly asked.



"Kingsley has made a visit, and it\'s untelling what they have cooked up". Harry said with a sneer.

At 11:40 AM, Harry, Draco, and Lucius made their way inside the French Ministry of Magic, flanked by a team of barristers. Unlike in Britain, the French had a very opulent building in the outskirts of Paris. It was an old sprawling estate, and the mansion was four stories in height. The law enforcement division, and the courts were in another large manor not far away.



The group of wizards and witches made their way up to the second floor where they all had to sign in and check their wands. They were then directed to another large flight of stairs, leading to the third floor, where the minister’s office was located. The group made their way up, and was directed by an auror to a large meeting room just over from the minister’s office. It was 12:00 noon exactly when they walked inside, and saw the French Minister for Magic setting at the head of the table, along with his undersecretary, and Kingsley Shacklebolt.



Kingsley was caught mid-sentence when he heard the door open. When he turned his head to look, his jaw slightly dropped at who was walking inside. Oh, he figured that Harry would show up by himself like he usually did, but he did not figure he would be accompanied by the Malfoy\'s, nor an entire legal team. He quickly caught himself then, and closed his mouth. When he noticed the French minister stand to greet them, he quickly saw his faux pas, and stood also.



"Mr. Harry Potter, what a pleasure it is to finally have you here"! Jean Claude Pitan said as he quickly grabbed Harry\'s shoulders and kissed each cheek.



"Good day to you too minister! I have been looking for an excuse to come and see you. I was interested in what charities you may now have for the poor and underprivileged here in this country". Harry stated with a happy grin.



"Thank you Mr. Potter, if you will, be seated, and we can get this under way". The minister stated as he held out a chair, two chairs down from where he sat.



Kingsley was taking this in, and wandered why he had left a seat between him and Harry. He then noticed an elderly man sit next to Harry on his other side, and immediately began to whisper in his ear. \'Must be his barrister here\'. Kingsley thought to himself. He also noticed that Draco sat directly across from Harry, and his father one chair farther down. Another of their legal team placed themselves between he and Draco. The rest made themselves at home in the other available chairs. Finally, Kingsley calmed his astonishment and finally spoke. "Harry". Kingsley said with a nod.



"Now minister Shacklebolt, what can we help you with today"? Minister Pitan stated evenly as he looked over his glasses at Kingsley.



"Well, for one, I have been here since yesterday evening, as I assume you are aware. I was hoping to get this done much quicker than it has taken. I assume you had trouble reaching our Mr. Potter"?



"Well, no, no trouble at all dear minister, I assure you. It takes time for an owl to deliver a message as you know". Minister Pitan said with a grin.



"An owl? You could have fire called the boy"? Kingsley grit out.



"Yes I could have, but here in France, we do things by etiquette. It would be uncouth for us to simply barge into Mr. Potters home like that"! Minister Pitan said with a sniff, as he raised his nose in the air. "He is here now as you can see, and I can assure you minister Shacklebolt, he is no boy, but a man".



"Yes, well, we need him to come back to Britain, we have some questions for him". Shacklebolt stated. After he said this, he heard several small snorts from the men, and a few giggles from the three ladies in the room.



"Minister, I am afraid I can not grant you your request, as our Mr. Potter has done nothing to warrant it. Now...". The ministers started to continue when there was a knock at the door. "Yes, please come in"!



Kingsley quickly turned his head to see who was interrupting their meeting, and whom he saw made him feel a little sick. "Well shite", he murmured under his breath.



"I do apologize minister Pitan, I only got the summons to be here moments ago"! Mr. Brikkens stated and took the empty seat beside Harry. As soon as he was seated, he shook the French ministers hand, and then quickly started to whisper in Harry\'s ear. "Now, what have I missed"? He asked as he gave Kingsley that sharky grin he was so famous for.



"Our dear minister here was just telling me that he wanted to take our Mr. Potter back to Britain for questioning". Minister Pitan said with a grin.



"Is that so. Well, minister Shacklebolt, are there any charges being brought against Mr. Potter that I am unaware of"? Brikkens asked with a fake frown.



"No, there are no charges against him.... at this time". Kingsley bit out.



"As I was telling minister Shacklebolt, we can not let him have our Mr. Potter on a whim, no, not at all". Minister Pitan said.



"Ah, well thank you minister Pitan. Now, there is the thing about our minister Shacklebolt breaking a restraining order that Mr. Potter had placed upon the entire British ministry. He should not be near him, nor should he speak to him. Has anyone here overheard the minister speaking to Mr. Potter"? Brikkens asked everyone in the room. At everyone’s nod, or yes, he then turned back to Kingsley. "Now minister, what should we do with you, breaking the law like you have. Also, doing it on foreign soil, that\'s a real no-no". Brikkens said as he waved his index finger back and forth as if he were chastising a small child.



"It\'s called diplomatic immunity Brikkens, and I shall do as I please". Kingsley bit out.



"Really minister, what makes you think that you can come here, and spit in the face of not only British wizarding law, but also the French"? Brikkens stated. "Oh yes, you do have diplomatic immunity, but they have the right to hold you, and to send you back to Britain for trial. You defied a court order by coming here today, and I will most definitely see to it that you are held responsible for it when we get you back to London, oh you\'ll have no doubt about that".



"I want to know if Mr. Potter has any information on this Yag group. They\'re nothing but a bunch of terrorists, and it is believed that Mr. Potter, and the Malfoy\'s are at its head"! Kingsley bellowed out, and glared around the room.



"Really minister, I thought you were smarter than that. Mr. Potter left Britain the day before the bombing, and that we can prove". Brikkens stated as he rested his chin on the tips of his fingers to look at Kingsley. "The Malfoy\'s have been here since the war ended, and have not been back. Only their son remained behind with Harry, as you well know, and he had to leave just like Mr. Potter did over Britain’s bigoted beliefs. Now, if you want to blame someone for causing this uprising, blame yourselves, and the ministry, as your beliefs are what caused it all to happen".



"Well I never"! Kingsley shouted and banged his fist on the table.



"No, I doubt you ever did". Draco said with a snort. This bought him a glare from Kingsley, a smug grin from Harry, and an eye roll from Lucius.



Finally, the older wizard that Kingsley thought must have been their French barristers spoke up. "Well, since this is a cut and dry meeting, I guess we should escort our Mr. Potter home". He said as he handed Kingsley his card. "I am Mr. Gaudoe, Mr. Potter and the Malfoy\'s legal representative in France. If you would like to contact them again, please owl or floo our office".



Kingsley paled when he heard the name. Gaudoe, Metzner, and Frank were the largest wizarding barristers firm in France. He knew that should anything else come up, the proceedings would be stalled indefinitely, and he would, in reality, be sent tons of parchment to sort through. It would take everyone in the legal department to handle the case, and that would be with all the employees of the ministry back to work. Also, if Mr. Brikkens firm got involved, it would be twice worse.



As they all stood, Kingsley watched Harry pull minister Pitan, Gaudoe, and Brikkens over to him where he stood with both the Malfoy men. He listened intently on what was being said.



"How would you all like to have dinner on us this evening"? Harry asked the three men.



"That would be splendid Mr. Potter"! Minister Pitan exclaimed. "Say around seven"?



"Yes that would be fine. Mr. Brikkens, if you would, please have your lover to attend with you". At his nod, he continued. "Mr. Gaudoe, please bring your wife, and have everyone here today attend. I would love to meet everyone, and get to know them. I will aquire a set of suites for Draco and I, and the senior Malfoy\'s, at the Hotel de Crillon, and we can also dine there. I hear their accommodations are quite exemplary".



This burned Kingsley, watching Harry blow thousands of galleons at the drop of a hat as the wizards of Britain were now practically paupers. "I guess I will be taking my leave then, I have plenty to do before the New Year". Kingsley said as he made to leave the room. He didn\'t make it far until several auror’s were surrounding him with their wands drawn.



"Minister Shacklebolt, you are under arrest for breaking the restraining order placed on you by Mr. Potter, and against all employees of the Ministry of Magic, Britain. You will be held here for extradition until further notice". The lead auror announced.





Kingsley’s jaw dropped at this as he grabbed his wand and tried to disapparate. When he found he couldn\'t, he tried to curse the lead auror to flee, and found that his magic wouldn\'t work. That was his mistake, as he was quickly stunned, and levitated from the room.



Once Kingsley had been taken, and the door now shut, Harry looked to minister Pitan. "I\'ll be here at five tomorrow evening to have him released of any charges. Just make it plain he is not welcome here, especially after the way he has acted today. I don\'t really feel like fooling around with the charges at this time. Just tell him when he\'s released that he can consider himself lucky".



"That can be arranged Mr. Potter. I can honestly say that you\'re more the diplomat than he. Would you ever care to become an ambassador"? Minister Pitan enquired.



"Not now minister, but maybe when I get older. I just want to live my life in peace for a while with me family here". Harry said. "All right everyone, we will see you all at 7:00 this evening. I hope to see you all there"!



When Lucius heard Harry call him his family, he felt his lip quiver, and that hadn\'t happened to him in years. "Yes, we must be leaving, we have to inform my wife to meet us at the hotel. Minister Pitan, Mr. Gaudoe, Mr. Brikkens, we shall be enjoying your company tonight". Lucius ended with a small bow to each.



The three wizards made their way outside, and Harry conjured his Patronus to take a message to Narcissa. He could just see her huge grin when she heard where they would be staying and dining tonight. She was already there in Paris shopping somewhere, so he hoped the large silver stag wouldn\'t startle her too much.

Harry woke the next morning fully rested, though he did have a slight hangover. He looked down to find a head of bond hair lying on his chest, and he grinned. Next, he noticed two phials of hangover potion on the night table, and he gently reached over and took one. After drinking it down, the relief was immediate, and it didn\'t taste nasty like the ones he was used to. He finally started to run his fingers through Draco\'s soft locks as he remembered the night before.



Harry had took two executive suites in the wizarding portion of the hotel, and they were going to celebrate New Years here that night. Last night, everyone came that was invited, and they had all dined in an exquisite dining room, with twenty-foot ceilings, and golden walls. The hotel had only the finest of furnishings of the Louis XV period, with the finest china, and silver available.



Next, they went to a private lounge, and stayed until 11:00 that night. The lounge again was furnished with only the finest Louis XV furniture. The upholstery was either a dark violet, or crimson. Numerous crystal chandeliers were hung above them, and cast a warm light. There, he remembered, is where he had got slightly drunk on Krug, Clos du Mesnil 1995 at 150 galleons a bottle.



Afterwards, minister Pitan and his wife visited with them in their suite for a short time, and left with the older Malfoy\'s to talk politics around 12:30. Yes, Harry was remembering it all now as he looked around their suite. He had been a little too tipsy to take it in last night when the arrived. It was a grand suite of several rooms, and the bed was fit for any king. Suddenly, reality hit him, and the shudder woke Draco from his sleep.



"Wha time is\'t"? Draco mumbled as he rolled over on his back, and covered his eyes with his arm.



"It\'s half ten in the morning my dragon, and we have to get up". Harry said as he handed him the other phial of hangover potion.



"What spooked you so much that you woke me up, may I ask"? Draco enquired.



"Er, we have to go shopping with your mother today". Harry quickly said as he looked away from Draco. That brought a pillow to his head after Draco threw it.



"You should be glad that she has finally started on your wardrobe you know. Now you can dress with they best of them". Draco yawned as he slid from the bed. "Now come one, I want to try that Jacuzzi bath this morning, and I want you in it with me"!

As the limo brought Harry and the Malfoy’s back to their hotel that evening, Harry was sore all over. He had never done that much shopping in his life. When he looked across to Lucius who was seated in the rear seat by Narcissa, he was grumbling under his breath. At this, Harry couldn\'t help but grin to himself, as his soon-to-be husband and his mother kept on talking about all the stores they had visited.



Harry also thought about the four suits that Narcissa had purchased for him, and that he had to be fitted for. She paid 2,400 galleons for two of them, and 3,500 galleons for the other two. Her excuse was, "you did not think that a suit in William Fioravanti\'s store, made with Super 220 merino wool, or with vicuna would cost less did you? Why the wool would cost at least 1,000 galleons by itself for only four and a half yards of fabric"! Harry shook his head at this as he remembered commenting that he didn\'t know that William Fioravanti, whomever he was, had a store in wizarding Paris. He got a good right glare for that. Harry did get Narcissa back though, when they went into muggle Paris. He shot directly into a store, and came back out with four bags full of Levi jeans and sweat shirts. She whimpered when he explained that some were Draco\'s size.



When they were inside the hotel, Harry grabbed Draco\'s hand and headed to the fitness center. He was going to get a massage, and go soak in a hot tub.



After the massage was over, and both young wizards were lying back in the warm water, Harry quirked an eye open at his beloved. "Draco, I am going to enjoy tonight. I paid the hotel to allow me the left-hand side of the balcony. They roped it off, but I am going to place some muggle repellent charms on the divider so we can be alone with your parents".



Draco\'s eyes shot open at this, and he slipped over to throw his arms around Harry\'s neck. "Harry, that\'s the best view there is. You must have paid a fortune for that! Did I ever tell you how much I truly love you! Just think, our own private view of the Eiffel Tower in the distance, and the view we\'ll have of the fireworks"! Draco finished and gave Harry a very hot and wet kiss.



"Oh, it only cost a thousand galleons, but it was well worth it. We were supposed to have a private butler, but I told them we would have our own join us. I asked Kreecher to do it, and to bring Winky and Toddy with him. They will be able to enjoy it too, plus they know all our needs. I already purchased four bottles of the same champagne we had last night, and the manager said he would have it chilled and waiting". Harry explained.



"What did I ever do to deserve you"? Draco mumbled, and snuggled into Harry\'s embrace.

Draco quickly stood up, and held out a chair from the table that he and his parents were seated at, in another large and opulent dining room. "Harry, you\'re late"!



"I\'m sorry love, it took a little longer than I had hoped". Harry said as he gave Draco a quick peck on the cheek, and took his offered seat. "I stayed with the auror’s and watched them frog march Kingsley back to the floo. I couldn\'t help but give him a smug grin when he turned to look at me".



Lucius snorted at this, and was astonished with himself, as he quickly covered his mouth with the fine linen napkin he held. "I think when Harry sticks the dagger in, he likes giving it a firm twist, do you not son"?



"That and then some, my soon-to-be father-in-law"! Harry said with a toothy grin, as he raised an expensive glass of wine in his hand, for a toast, at everyone seated. "To our continued good health"!



"Here, Here"! Lucius said as he took a sip with Narcissa and Draco. "Ah, here comes the food, now we can dine. We took the liberty of ordering for you Harry, since you were late. No worry though, it\'s everything you like".



Narcissa set back and took a good look at Harry. He was a handsome young man, even though his hair always looked like he had just had sex. Then she figured, that made him even more appealing. He did look good in the black suit that he chose to wear, she thought, even thought it was an Armani. She gave a little sniff at this, knowing it wouldn\'t be heard. She would cure him of those plebian tastes as soon as his new clothes came in. At this, she allowed herself a slight grin, and then began to eat.



Dinner went without a hitch, and they left for the balcony at 10:30 that evening. Once outside, Harry cast a quick warming spell with the elder wand, and the whole balcony warmed up on their side. He looked over at the poor muggles wearing warm jackets, and allowed the spell to widen, warming them also. He wondered if they would catch on to the sudden warming temperature.



Finally, Harry and Draco took the lounge that was situated against the balustrade, and Lucius and Narcissa sat across from them in the two chairs that were directly across the table. Kreecher then appeared in his black butlers uniform, and began to pour champagne in the flutes they were holding. They then began to talk the night away as they carefully watched their watches for midnight to arrive.



Three minutes before midnight, Harry stood, taking Draco\'s hand, and proceeded to walk him to the corner of the balcony so they could see the tower. A soft song was playing, and Harry pulled Draco into a slow dance. Harry noticed that Lucius did the same with Narcissa.



"Draco, do you know how much I have wanted this, to be like this with you tonight"? Harry softly asked.



"No Harry, how much"? Draco said as he looked into Harry\'s emerald eyes.



Harry knew his words couldn\'t match what he felt, so he started to kiss Draco. When he did, midnight struck, and the fireworks were just starting to explode in the sky over the tower. The kiss was deep, hot, and wet. Their tongues were wrapping about each other, and finally they had to break for air. "That much, my beautiful blond dragon, that much".



At this Draco blushed, and a single tear fell from his eye. Harry kissed it off his cheek, took Draco\'s hand, and led him back to their room for a night of exquisite sex.

The next morning found Harry and Draco entering the senior Malfoy\'s suite to have breakfast. As they walked into the small dining room, Harry saw that Lucius was rolling with laughter, and Narcissa had a huge grin on her face.



"Did we miss anything"? Harry asked as he looked to make sure his fly wasn\'t open, or something else that would be hideously embarrassing.



Draco dragged Harry to the table, and sat down, as he watched his father laugh with tears in his eyes. "Ok father, what gives"?



"Well Draco, see for yourself". Lucius said as he composed himself, and handed Draco that mornings Daily Prophet.



First, Draco saw the article about the building exploding at midnight, and that there were only the minister, Arthur Weasley, Granger, and an auror to respond to it. The paper said they apparated into the middle of a bunch of muggle firemen. Of course Draco knew this was going to happen, and gave a chortle at it. Next though, he looked at the headline and picture. At this though, he broke out in a fit of laughter. "Harry"!



"Surprise"! Harry said, and kissed Draco\'s cheek with a huge toothy grin plastered on his face.

Back at the burrow, Ronald Weasley was sitting at the kitchen table with his head in his hands. He was aching all over, and hell, even his bum was sore. He knew he had gotten drunk the night before, as he had been on an outing with his friends. He figured he must have gotten into a brawl by the way he felt. He also knew that Hermione was going to be really pissed at him today. He had already gone to search for a hangover potion, but his mother had hid them, and stated that he deserved what he felt. Also, the owl had just arrived with the paper, and he hadn\'t even felt like opening it yet.



Hermione came in at that moment, took her seat beside him, gave him a glare that should have set him on fire, and then opened the paper. She wasn\'t two minutes into her reading when she started to mutter obscene words under her breath. She quickly stood, turned to Ron, and backhanded him out of his chair. "Ronald, you are dead meat"! She then ran to the front door, and before slamming it behind her, she yelled out. "This wedding between us is off"! With that, she disapparated with a crack so loud, it shook the windows.



Ron crawled off the floor, holding his now bloody nose, and looked at the paper. When he saw the picture, and read the headline, he fainted, and fell like a tree.

"Here, Harry, let me read this to you, this is the funniest thing I have ever read"! Draco exclaimed. "Oh, what a headline this is"! Draco exclaimed.









"A Weasley Gone Gay"?



"Ronald Bilius Weasley, the youngest son of Arthur Weasley, the new undersecretary to the Minister for Magic, was found partying with a known gay prostitute, using the street name of Goodall last night at the Three Broomsticks. This reporter thought it funny that after the younger Weasley had chastised his once friend Harry Potter for being gay, that he would be carousing around with the sort of person that this Goodall man is.



When the two left the Three Broomsticks, I took it upon myself to follow the two men. You will never guess where I found them going, but none other place than a seedy brothel in Knockturn Alley of all places.



When I stopped the two to ask them about it, they allowed me to follow them inside, and take the picture that I have added with this news-breaking article. If you will notice, we had to black out portions, so the younger viewers wouldn\'t be disturbed by what they saw happening.



"As anyone can see, Mr. Weasley played the subordinate role in the sex that took place, and he fully agreed to it"!









At this, Draco threw the paper down and started crying tears of laughter again. "Oh Harry, this is what you did that night, set our little Ronnikins up"? At Harry’s nod, Draco burst out laughing again. "I have one question though, why does this Goodall fellow have a long black box covering him from his hips out before he tops Ron"?



Harry swallowed nervously at this, as he quickly looked at Narcissa and Lucius. Finally, after taking a huge breath, he leaned over to Draco and whispered his response. "Er Draco, my little dragon, Mr. Goodall is abundantly endowed, and is the reason why I picked him for my dirty deed". When Harry saw Draco\'s questioning look, he continued. "Draco, Goodall\'s cock was a good ten inches long, and about two inches in diameter, if not more".



Draco broke out in another fit of laughter at this. "Oh God, I bet our little Ronald is sore this morning"!



"Draco"! Narcissa gasped, and covered her blushing face.



Draco quickly sobered from his laughter at this, and hung his head. "Oh, er, sorry mother, I didn\'t think I said that out loud". He mumbled out.



Lucius couldn\'t help himself, and he barked out another laugh. "I told you son, our Harry should have been a Slytherin"!





Fin!









Thanks again for all the reviews! I will continue this, hopefully, when Valentines day rolls around.



kyuubifreak: Teddy is with Andromada now. I\'m thinking about having Harry and Draco adopt him, if I write more to these stories.
