Dad pulled me behind him up the stairs until Poseidon was out of sight. When I could no longer see my twin, dad no longer had to drag me as I soon started to pull him behind me instead. I ran into a lot of people trying to rush toward the locker room so I can see Poseidon faster. We got to the hallway where the locker room was just in time to see Poseidon's team go in, but I didn't see Poseidon himself. I started to get worried sick. Is he hurt? Did something happen? Does he hate me? Does he not want me around? All those questions ran through my head as I started breathing hard and my chest started hurting again. Everybody from my family was trying to calm me down but nothing was working, I couldn't even understand what they were saying until one voice broke through the ringing in my ears.
"Draco! What's going on? What happened to him?!" Suddenly Poseidon was in front of me, holding my face in his hands "What happened? Did someone hurt you?" He kept asking me questions while I continued to cry while sitting on the floor in front of him. "How did I end up on the floor?" I thought. I reached up with tears still pouring down my face and a sob broke through my mouth. Poseidon was already reaching for me but when he heard the sound that came out of my mouth he instantly sat on the ground and pulled me into his lap like he did earlier. I just stayed in his lap bawling my eyes out with my face shoved into his neck. He kept rubbing circles on my back and whispering in my ear until I calmed down. Then I realized that Poseidon was still in his hockey gear. I started to try to get up while saying "You haven't changed yet. You are probably so uncomfortable. Go change I can wait!" I tell Poseidon (Ambrose) while trying to wipe away my tears, only for them to be replaced right away with newly fallen tears.
Poseidon did not agree with what I said if the fact that he kept a tight grip on me, not letting me get up, was anything to go by. "I'm fine Dray. You're more important than getting changed, that can wait." Poseidon tells me. "No. that stuff is probably hurting you I'll be okay." I tell him and I finally wiggled out of his grasp. "Fine. You'll be right here when I come back out right?" Poseidon stared into my eyes as he asked, looking extremely hopeful. "Yea I'll be here, can't leave you yet." I tell Poseidon with a smile on my face. He smiled back before turning around to make his way into the locker room across the hall from where we had been.
As Poseidon pushed the door to the locker room open he grasped his jersey of his chest tightly that was followed by me letting out a small whimper of pain grabbing my chest too. Poseidon suddenly turned around with a blank face and started walking back towards me. Not saying a word Poseidon suddenly bent down and threw me over one of his shoulders like a ragdoll then walked into the locker room with me trying to fight out of his hold, leaving behind a group of adults who were hysterically laughing behind.
While Poseidon was taking off the padding he had to wear for the game I sat right beside him on the bench. Neither of the us talking. It was not an awkward silence it was just a comfortable silence. It was like that for the entire time Poseidon was changing which, without rushing, takes about thirty minutes with all of his padding on. Poseidon put all his gear into the same big bag he had earlier and lifted it on to his shoulder before grabbing my hand, "come on its time to go" and we walked out of the locker room together. When we got out of the locker room we saw my parents, Tom, Sirius, and the couple that Poseidon came with today, I guess they are the people adopted him. "Ambrose, are you ready go kiddo? We're running behind schedule to get to your soccer game" Poseidon (Ambrose's) adopted mom asked him. "I'm sorry. I forgot." Ambrose told the woman. Poseidon, sadly, let go of my hand and started to walk away with his new mom and dad.
The second he let go of my hand and took a step away I felt the pain start to come back, making me become a second away from crying again. He got maybe five steps away before he turned his head back to look at me with tears in his eyes as well. Poseidon grabbed his mom's hand and pulled it a little bit to get her attention, "Can Draco come with us?" The women looked down at him then back at me, seeing me in the same state that he was in, tears now rolling down both of our faces. After a minute, she looked over at my parents and I, "If Draco and his parents want to come to your soccer game then it's okay with me?" I looked up at my parents and see then smiling down at me and nodding their heads. I looked back at Poseidon with a giant smile on my face only to see the same smile on his face too. He drops his big hockey bag and opens his arms, silently requesting a hug, I quickly ran the little distance straight into his arms.
Unknowingly I turn into a koala with my face buried into his neck making Poseidon put one arm behind my back and his other arm under my legs and started walking outside to go to the car. Leaving both sets of parents and the entire inner circle in shock for a minute before Poseidon's dad picked up his bag and everyone followed behind us. *WHAT THE PARENTS SEE*

3rd Person POV:
The parents talked about what Ambrose (Poseidon) had to do today. His mom ended up being the one to answer the question, "Ambrose has a soccer game that starts in thirty minutes. Then he must go home and do chores because he got in trouble at school this week. After chores, he has to do his weekend homework and has Jiu Jitsu tournament at six this evening. The boys seem to be close but Ambrose has never said anything about Draco. How long have they known each other?" "They actually only met today. If you don't mind me asking what did Pos- Ambrose do to be in trouble at school?" Lucius Malfoy asked the woman that raised his son. "Ambrose is always fighting with this boy, Jake. He stands up for himself and others all the time against that kid. Well, this time Jake was picking on a kid because he has two dads. Ambrose stood up for the kid then he poured milk on Jake's head. He did it for a reason that wasn't selfish so we only are making him do extra chores today as punishment." Parker's mom, Stacy, told he group.
The large group of adults finally arrived at the car only to see Draco sitting in Ambrose's lap in the back seat of the SUV. "So, how do you want to do this? I don't think we are going to separate them." Daniel, Ambrose's dad, ask everyone. Everyone then looked at the two boys who were in their own little world with both of their eyes were closed and they kept whispering in each other's ears. "I think that the best thing to do to avoid any further melt downs would be to let them ride together." Narcissa, Draco's mom, said out loud for the whole group. "What about one of you ride with us and the rest follow?" Stacy suggests. Everyone agreed with what Stacy said and Narcissa rode in the truck with the twins and the adoptive parents to the soccer field. The only time that Draco was not sitting on Ambrose's (Poseidon) lap was when he crawled into the third-row seats to change into his soccer uniform, minus his cleats since he is climbing on seats. Once he got back into the seat with Draco in his lap Draco fell asleep almost instantly so Ambrose just put his headphones on his head and turned his music on, closing his eyes. Narcissa pulled out her phone (yes in this story wizards have normal technology) and took a picture of the twins to send to Lucius before she spent the rest of the short car ride talking quietly with Daniel and Stacy.
