Chapter Sixteen

"We can handle the work for a week. Are you sure you don't mind?" James asked.

"Yes, I am sure." Narcissa said.

"There's an appointment he should go too. I'll have the card sent over along with the paperwork... Don't... push, but see if maybe you can talk him into going? It would be helpful." James said.

"I'll do my best." She said.

"Thank you." James said, before hanging up the phone.

"Harry?" Draco half yawned sitting up in his bed. Harry sat in the chair by the window, dressed in some of his father's old clothes Narcissa had brought to him. "Yeah...I'm going to stay here a few days. " Harry said and Draco walked over to him. "Are you okay?" Draco asked, getting pulled onto his lap and Draco blushed. "Just...needed away form my parents for a little while." Harry said. "My parents aren't any better if your trying to get out of parental supervision." Draco said and Harry laughed. "Your ma already gave me the speech...just not ready to deal with something is all." Harry admitted, getting a light kiss. "No!" Richard whined. "You just roll over then." Draco laughed and Harry smirked. "Or you could watch? I don't really care." Harry said, giving Draco another kiss, before the pillow was thrown at their heads. "No! Even mum and father don't kiss that much around us." Richard whined. "Because your a butthead. You'll kiss somebody yourself soon enough." Draco said. "I think her big brother wouldn't like that." Richard said, before he went to grab the bottle for the Billy. Harry couldn't help but laugh. "Such a little brother isn't he?" Harry smiled. "The pain in the butt, but I love him." Draco smiled. "I guess it helps being just three years about. Me and Remus are eight." Harry said. "My and Richard are close, yes...But I am sure you and Remus are close?" Draco kind of asked. "Not like you too. Eight years is a bit difference. Me and Lily are closer I feel like, but she thinks I am too bossy. I have to be sometimes though." Harry said and Draco give him a light kiss. "But even adult Remus said his children rather you." Draco smiled and Harry chuckled. "Yes, I love them all." Harry smiled. "I can tell. Come, breakfast should be ready soon, the smell is so strong." Draco said. "I think I might try and get a nap in, before...I have to work on the last of my school work Due Monday." Harry said, getting a shy kiss. "Breakfast is a good-" Draco said. "I think I'll pass, I want to rest." Harry said and Draco nodded.

However? Harry didn't get the chance to sleep when Narcissa knocked on the open door. "Your joining breakfast, Harry." Narcissa said. "I rather sleep..." Harry somewhat mumbled. "I didn't ask. Join the table, Harry." Narcissa said and with a sigh, Harry got out of the bed.
Harry only picked at the breakfast, never once taking a bite, before one by one the children left the table to start on their school work, or the farm work that needed to be done. Even though it was Saturday. "Harry, you sure your okay? You haven't ate." Draco asked. "I told your ma I rather sleep...not that hungry, a bit of a headache." Harry admitted. "I can talk to her about you taking a nap, but I have a few things to do.." Draco kind of mumbled. "I know you have to sleep, but I really would...just rather sleep right now." Harry said, getting a light kiss. "Alright." Draco said softly.

Harry was able to lay down, with Narcissa very unpleased with him not eating Breakfast, but was able to convince her it was because he was still feeling unwell.
A couple hours later, he was woken up by the small slaps to his face. Harry yawned, but smiled when he see Betty all dressed up and giggly. "Hi, big girl!" Harry said, as he got nuzzled to. "Mom is keeping the kids again for them. Are you sure everything is okay?" Draco asked, as Harry sat up. "I'm sure everything is fine. They could have another interview or something." Harry said, getting his lap full of Betty who was still very giggly. Harry just smiled down at the bubble girl, and gave her head a big pat. "I guess it is time I get started on some school work." Harry said. "Mom told me you had two majors, how?" Draco asked and Harry just smiled lightly. "This is my fifth year. I started when I was sixteen, and decided to take the longer, more challenging course." Harry said. "Well, that's pretty cool." Draco smiled.

Time skip to November 25th.

Harry was still staying on the Malfoy farm for the most part, if he wasn't at the store. His father had also started coming around with his son Remus, who both Narcissa or Lucius didn't know about the vision impairment. They just assumed by the slow walking he was just getting a look of the new farm he was unfamiliar with. So, neither one knew...at least not this very moment. Narcissa called everybody in got breakfast. Breakfast was a little later then usually because adult Remus had dropped of a few of his kids and little Betty fussed at Narcissa until she could help cook. So it was a little slower and the kids had made a mess of the living room. James was behind his sons, so didn't know to warn Remus about the mess on the living room they would have to walk through. Even with Remus every now and then able to see bigger shadows, was still very much blind to small tiny objects in the floor. Harry entered the living room, and turned to Remus, but with his younger brother following so closely, it was already to late. Remus slipped on one of the smaller you cars, knocking his foot out form under him.
