A Blended Family

42

Harry took his boy on his lap, who got very giggling. Phoenix was happy to be snuggled to his daddy, but Harry? Was just feeling that same worthlessness, because his body was trying to shut down. His body was attacking itself and the medicine to aid that, was making him hardly able to take care of himself, let alone his Son or his partner. So, when Harry got up, Ron grabbed the back of his shirt. "You don't have to talk, but there won't be a repeat. Draco is home and he needs you. It's a hard time, I understand that, but you can't do something stupid, Harry." Ron said. "You don't understand! I can't even take care of myself most of the damn time. They would of took my baby if somebody else wasn't here! How the fuck am I supposed to be okay with the fact I'm being supported by somebody else?" Harry spat out. Ron took a breath, but pulled Harry back down on the couch. "Harry, just shut up. You won't listen when your like this, so just hush and watch the television." Ron said. Harry, after the third time of being pulled back down to the couch, he started to watch the television.

It's been two months, the month now April.

Over the course of the two months, Harry's treatment was changed, twice, because his body was struggling to keep up. So, they had to lower the dose and Harry was often unable to eat, so he used the feeding tube more times then not. It keep the young man battling his depression more and more, hiding it with his partner, Draco. Who, was starting to become more like himself again. Draco still struggled with what happened, but he wanted more to help Harry and spend all the time he could with their son, and Harry and almost convinced him about the baby he was growing inside him. He was now 17 weeks along. It seemed Phoenix knew, because he loved to snuggle Draco's belly and put his little hands on his belly and it made Draco happy.

The twins and triplets had their birthday. They were now seven and six years old and Bellatrix was 8 weeks away from her due date with triplets, planing another home birth. Something that worried her sister, Narcissa, but Bellatrix also went back to 'I had them all at home, I'll do it again' and Narcissa really couldn't fight with that. 

It was early that April day, so Narcissa was making the children breakfast. She must of made to much noise, because Hermione yawned walking into the kitchen. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you." She said. "I don't mind, the kids are getting up soon for school, right?" Hermione asked, not yet seeing the time. "Yeah. How come you didn't say anything about the subject matter of why Mrs. Weasley was so upset?" Narcissa asked and Hermione let out a sigh. "Because it's not like my parents like the idea either...But I guess they win, We still aren't married, are we?" She frowned. "As a mother, I can see their point, but I also understand things happened. Harry and Draco have a child together, and most would say they are too young, but Henry points out all kinds of couples when we go out, so I wouldn't stop you from getting married. I might voice my own thoughts and be certain this is what you wanted, but I understand your feelings." Narcissa said. "My father rather me with a muggle man, but not everybody is so understanding...You got lucky. Not every is like Henry or even Hank who is trying his hardest to understand a world so he can be there for his children." Hermione said. "I know. I never thought I would be in this world...the news is awful here." Narcissa said. "Bad things happen, all over, Narcissa." Hermione said. "Agreed." She said.

The children got sent off to school and the adults went to work. They all work. Bellatrix and Narcissa worked in a Library, simple. Bellatrix would soon be unable to work, once she hit 37 weeks, because her boss wouldn't work her that long.
Draco, even pregnant, hidden by a spell, went to work with Harry and Hank, at the store. Hank still had his office job.
Ron and Hermione went to the magical would for school and worked.
Leaving Phoenix and Sophia, in daycare.

Harry, when the three of them took their lunch break, just eased down to sit. Eating was still a struggle, and he wasn't about to take a feeding until he went home, so he was handed a bottle water by Henry as Draco pulled out his food form the break room and started to heat it up. "Nass likes the work at the library." Henry said. "I'm glad. They still get off at half after two, right? The children get out at three, don't they?" Harry asked, opening the bottle of water. "Yes. I only say we leave the babies in daycare, until five, because we don't get a discount picking them up early. Phoenix is having so much fun there, too." Henry said. "I know...it's just...Hard for me to be away from him..." Harry said, putting the lid back on the water. Even taking in the water right now, he knew he would vomit. "Harry, you need to drink that. It's a small bottle, just ten." Henry said. "I'll just vomit, so no." Harry said. "Please, Harry? The manger knows and you haven't touched your water bottle all day." Draco pointed out, easing to sit down at the long table in the break room. Harry? Slowly took the lid back off. "I have an MRI next week." Harry said. "Why so soon? With your treatment, it...is going to take longer, right?" Henry asked. "Because she wants to check a couple things to be sure I'm handling it okay is all...but I hate that stupid thing." Harry frowned. "You'll be okay. Promise." Henry said.

It didn't take long for Harry to run over to the trashcan and vomit. His stomach just couldn't handle anything right now. He felt a hand on his back, before he was handed a damp rag. He slowly cleaned off his face. "Take five, Harry. Get some air." Said their manager, Harry just give him a nod and slowly walked outside their department store.
Harry slowly walked down the sidewalk, overlooking the parking lot. He seen all kinds of people working there, but never really understood why people choice to be so 'ugly' in public. By ugly, their tones or just being rude. It made no sense. Harry let out a long sigh, before he headed back inside the store, finishing his work day feeling like death.

Henry carried Harry into the house and got the young man into bed, before Draco put Phoenix on the bed. Harry weakly smiled at his boy who had simply been removed form his carseat. He still had his little bitty tennis shoes on his feet. Phoenix reached for Harry who slowly pulled the baby to him. He was nuzzled too as Draco pulled the blanket up over them. "Get some sleep, Harry." Draco said, placing a light kiss on Harry's cheek. "Lay...with us." Harry said, half asleep. Draco nodded and climbed into bed.

Narcissa came to check on Harry and Draco to find them asleep and Phoenix playing with Harry's phone he wiggled down the bed and pulled out of his daddy's pocket. Phoenix grind at his grandma and reached for her, dropping the phone to the bed. She smiled back and picked him up, putting him on her hip. "Such a big boy. Come on, let's let them sleep and get you ready for dinner!" Narcissa said, exiting the bedroom and turning off the lights, leaving the two young man, sleeping in the bed.
