Chapter 8

Chapter Eight: One Step Forward



Draco was sitting on his son’s bed reading a bedtime story. Their nightly routine was just now adjusting to the changes in their life. He prayed that the next change would not be too dramatic for Aiden.



As he finished reading the story he placed a gentle kiss on his sleeping son’s forehead and quietly walked out. Shutting the door behind him he leaned back against it a heaved a heavy sigh.



Many times he wished things had not turned out the way they did, and then he would think of his little boy and those thought would go away. He loved his son too much to wish for him gone.



Making his way to his door he gave a start as Harry came up the stairs. Draco drank in the sight of him, the tight muggle jeans, loose t-shirt and bright smile… bright smile?



“Draco, come downstairs. There is something I want you to see.” Harry held out his hand for him to take.



Hesitantly he clasped the other man’s hand and was almost dragged down the stairs. As they came to the refurbished living room Draco noticed someone sitting on the sofa. The person looked up as they entered and Draco gave a cry of ‘mama’ and flew into his mother’s arms.



Narcissa held tightly to her son as the young man cried. She glanced at Harry and catching his eye mouthed a ‘thank you’ as he left.



Once the tears stopped Draco pulled back and looked at her, “How…?”



“Our young Mr. Potter arranged for me to come. This is now my place of residence and house arrest.”



“Why would he do that?” Draco asked, “Not that I’m not grateful.”



Narcissa gave a small smile, “I think that young man has a crush on you.”



“You think so?” Draco’s looked up at her with a hopeful expression. “But what does that have to do with you being here?”



“Dray baby, he wants you to be happy. And having me here with you and Aiden makes you happy.”



“You make me very happy, mama.” He snuggled back down into her embrace and drifted off to sleep with her humming quietly to him, just like when he was a child.

Harry wandered through the house checking on his charges. He slipped quietly into Aiden’s room. Smiling down at the boy he tucked the blanket around him. Aiden sighed at the warmth and settled back down. Turning he walked back to the door and stopped as Draco stood there.



Harry swallowed at him. He looked a mess, hair all askew, tear streaked face and his clothing all rumpled. Harry thought he’d never seen anything more beautiful. He cleared his throat, “I was just checking on him.”



Draco didn’t say anything and Harry began to get a little nervous, “Listen, about what happened-”



He was cut off as the smaller man threw himself at Harry and pressed their lips together. Harry wrapped his arms around him to steady them as they dueled with their tongues. After a little while Harry pushed Draco away and looked into the blond’s stormy blue-grey eyes. He gasped at the look in Draco’s eyes. Pure lust… and something more…



Draco smiled, “I’ve thought a lot about it and I’ve come to the conclusion that I want you… I-I’ve always wanted you…”



Harry gaped at him, “What?”



Draco dropped his gaze, “I was jealous and I guess I took it out on you.”



“Jealous of who?”



“Weasley. For befriending you first. When I offered my hand you turned me down.”



Harry sighed and lifted his chin, “Dray, what else was I supposed to do? You insulted my first friend ever and you acted like my muggle cousin, who was a bully.”



Draco blushed, “Sorry… I was just used to getting my way.”



“Apology accepted.” He said simply, “How about we go to the library and talk?”



Draco nodded and followed Harry out of the room closing the door quietly so as to not wake his son.

Blaise sneered at Finch-Fletchly as he squirmed under that intense gaze. “Do you have any leads as to where my husband and son have disappeared to?”



“None so far. I have some feelers out and I’ll let you know as soon as I know.” Justin said calmly. You had to be calm with these purebloods. If you quavered at any time they’ll drown you.



Just them his phone rang, “Excuse me a moment. Hello?”



The voice on the other end spoke, “Justin, I just received word that Mrs Narcissa Malfoy was transferred from Malfoy Manor to an undisclosed location.”



“Undisclosed? A fidelus charm?” he quired.



“Most likely, and get this… the transfer was requested by none other that Harry Potter.”



“Potter!?” Justin yelped. “What’s he got to do with this?”



“Don’t know, but it’s all been cleared by the Minister.”



“Thanks for the info. If you can find anything else it would be appreciated.”



And with that Justin hung up and turned to face Blaise. He cleared his throat, “Well, it seems that there is no sign of your husband, although Mrs Malfoy has been removed from Malfoy Manor.”



“What!?” Blaise screamed, “By whom? Potter?”



Justin nodded, “There hasn’t been many sightings of Potter in recent days. Although he did put forth the Werewolf Act that just recently passed, stating that werewolves and their families be allowed homes and jobs if qualified.”



“That sounds just like our Hero Potter. And he pulled Mrs Malfoy out of the Manor? What about Mr Malfoy?”



“Still in Azkaban, but he has a parole hearing coming up. He could be out of there by the end of the month on good behavior.”



“Well, it seems Potter is interfering again. Find out anything you can on his activities and those of the Weasley’s too. More than likley Weasel and his wife are involved with whatever he is doing.”



TBC…



Sorry all for the delay… this one has been evading me latley… but don’t worry I will finnish it. K
