Part Twenty

"I don't want to...At least not until I feel more safe...But if it comes to me picking up a day or you. I'll work Sundays with Matt all day." Draco admitted, feeling the kiss on his head. "Stay with things you have to have for a while, and I think we will be okay." Harry said, before Draco looked up at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I missed you...Every day Harry." Draco cried. "Sh. I understand...we can't change it, all we can do is move forward." Harry said and Draco gave him another light kiss. "Why... won't you use magic? You haven't. It might have been your wand for the heater that day, but you wasn't the one that casted that spell." Draco said. "It's just a choice I have made, Draco." Harry quickly said and Draco put a hand on Harry's other check. "I know the smell of make-up, Harry. The make-up in the bathroom medicine cabinet is for your skin-tone." Draco said softly and Harry let out a sigh. "Nothing you need to worry about, Draco. It has nothing to do with anything. I just made a choice, Draco." Harry said and Draco frown. "Harry...Why won't you tell me?" Draco said. "Because it's not that big of a deal. It's not something I made a habit of." Harry said and Draco let out a huff. "That doesn't give you the right to not tell me what your hiding." Draco said a bit pissed off and tried to pull up off Harry, but Harry locked his arm around Draco. Draco huffed again, but relaxed his body once more. "Because...I don't want to talk about it. Because it is pathetic. Because I should have been able to stop it. I can kill Tom, but not stop what was happening. Do you understand how Pathetic that sounds?" Harry said, only to feel the light kiss on his neck. "Harry...I understand more then you think...I couldn't just walk away nor could my mother...I feared my father...when all I had to do was tell somebody...But I couldn't. My mother couldn't either...and she has a lot of power too. You aren't Pathetic. Please...I know it has to do with why you won't use Magic." Draco said softly and Harry took a tight grip of Draco's arm. "It is Pathetic, Draco. My relationship with Ginny wasn't anything like they knew. I wouldn't show there was anything wrong...I couldn't cause them anymore heartbreak. I wouldn't be the reason they fought more between themselves...and I... Didn't think they'd believe me." Harry said and Draco kissed his neck lightly. "She used magic to hurt you, didn't she?" Draco said softly. "I drank a lot...It numb the body...I just let her do what she wanted and then she'd take off again. I love my kids, I do...But I never wanted them like that." Harry whispered, getting nuzzled to. "Mine." Draco said and Harry let out a small Chuckle and held Draco close. "Don't tell them...I am not ready for that." Harry said. "Promise. I think you should tell them whenever you are ready...I promise they won't think anything bad towards you."  Draco said. "I don't think I will tell them such a thing...She agreed to stay away form me and the children. Not sure what changed suddenly, but I don't care." Harry said. "I disagree with you not telling them...But I won't say a word." Draco said.

George was woken up early that next morning by a cold hand on his check. He really didn't open his eyes, but smiled lightly. "What...time is...it?" George Mumbled. "To early for you. Little man is still asleep." Matt said softly. "Come." George mumbled, letting out a yawn.
"Daddy!" Little Fred would say less then an hour later, climbing up onto the bed. "What is it little man?" Matt said, sitting up in the bed. He was unable to sleep. It was somewhat of a bad night at the hospital and he knew the nightmares would come. Even being close to the younger man, his mind was still uneasy. "Wakey time." Fred said. "How about this, we let Daddy sleep and me and you get some pancakes." Matt said and he thought for a moment. "Okay." Fred said in agreements and let Matt pick him up.

Draco yawn coming down the stairs, to the smell of breakfast, those same pancakes Matt talked about. Well, not the same Pancakes. Narcissa had been woken up by something she didn't want to share as she wouldn't worry anybody. When she smelt the breakfast cooking, she woke up her toddler and Hurried down to take over. "Matt, didn't you work last night?" Draco asked, easing down at the table. "Yeah, couldn't sleep." Matt replied kind of quietly as he half listen to the story Fred was trying to read to him. "What happened?" Draco asked and he just shock his head. "Matt." Draco said again. "Hush." Matt said kind of hush and Draco let out a huff. "You might be my boss in some words but when I can see something is bothering you." Draco said. "I said to let it go, Draco. I can handle it, so hush. Enough of you guys butting in." Matt said. "I know damn well your thankful for that." Draco said. "The both of you, stop it." Narcissa said and Draco let out a huff. "Fine. Fine." Draco said, grabbing the gallon of milk and pouring a glass for himself. "Harry left awfully early didn't he?" Narcissa asked. "Yeah. Lily woke us up and there wasn't really a point in going back to sleep...at least for him...or so he thought." Draco replied and Daisy throw down her empty sippy cup. "Daisy! You do not throw things!" Narcissa said Turning away form the stove and pointing a finger down at the toddler girl who whined out.
