Recovery

121

Two weeks and One days have past by, marking Draco Malfoy's 39th week. He was still on his feet and didn't at all want to slow down for the growing girl inside him. She also wasn't showing any signs of coming the night before, so Today, October 17th, started like any other Saturday, Busy and loud.

The children didn't have school today and nobody worked, so the breakfast table was full. Zachary holding his one day shy of one month old daughter, close to his chest. She was sucking on a binky and all nuzzled in her slightly over sided jammies. "The cot is over there." Harry said and after a pause, Zachary laid the girl down in the cot. She made a tiny noise, before relaxing and closing her eyes. "Your brother will be here later." Harry said to Zachary. "I thought the came last night?" Zachary askd. "Victoria was still asleep and they didn't want to wake her up. She hasn't been feeling the best, but they are coming over, shortly." Harry said. "Are you having to go someplace?" Draco asked, slowly easing down in his chair. A hand going to his very large belly. "I'm meeting up with Ron whiles he is docked, yes. So dad is going to come over, and Zachary wants his brother over." Harry said "Yes, I do." Zachary fussed out. "Your father and Victoria worked last night, they don't have to come babysit. We are fine, Harry." Draco said. "You are due in six days, Draco, she could come at any moment, somebody should be here." Harry said. "Oh, alright. Only because I know you are just going to worry otherwise. Do you know how long Ron will be in town?" Draco asked. "I do not, I'll see if I can't find out, but I would say not very long." Harry said.

James and Victoria Potter brought their children over to Harry's house. Sky walked over to the cot little Sonechka slept in. He picked her up as Thomas laid his daughter down in the cot. Little Sonechka yawned, looking at Sky with her big eyes. "I can't say their names." Sky said. "It's okay. There's plenty of time for you to learn how to say there names." Thomas said.  "How come you three didn't have Russian names?" Sky asked. "I don't know. I named her Svetlana because it's our mum's name." Thomas said softly. "It's a pretty name, I just have trouble saying it is all." Sky pointed out. "I know and it's okay, I promise." Thomas said, before Zachary called for him.

Zachary was sitting on the bed he shared with his partner, Christopher, when Thomas walked into the bedroom. "You realized I am right down the road, I didn't go far and I am always coming back." Thomas said. "Its not the same, Tommy. You know I know he is out... If he-" Zachary started to say. "He's not going to, brother. Dad will kill him, you know that." Thomas said, before joining his brother on the bed. "She's about to be a month old..." Zachary said. "I remember. The time will past by. You just take care of her and yourself and be sure you are making time for Christopher. How...is he? He's been quite lately." Thomas asked. "Because he...has trouble around his father. He's going to the visits with Cc and comes back pretty depressed. You don't get over some things...It...was different between you and I. He could of called Christopher and you haven't the slightest idea of how much he just hates himself!" Zachary said. "I've heard him before, brother. I can see how that would be very different and difficult. Maybe, he should take a break? Worry about his health before trying to repair a relationship with his father?" Thomas asked. "I've tried, but...Cc matters to him, very much, and she is at that age where she might not even remember he wasn't there when she gets older." Zachary pointed out. "She needs to know the truth, Zachary." Thomas said, before the bedroom door was knocked on.

"James and I are having to run to the bar. Siruis needs a quick hand. The girls are in their cots. Sky can keep an eye on them until they start getting fussy." Victoria said. "Is everything okay?" Thomas asked. "I didn't hear the details, but we won't be gone to long. Harry would flip." She said. "Father is six days away from his due date. Unlike you, we can't just have the baby anywhere." Thomas said. "I'm aware. I promise we won't be gone long. Sky would feel..." She started to say. "Victoria is is Eleven." Thomas pointed out. "He is a very smart boy. Take your time. He will enjoy his time with the girls." Victoria said. "I'll think about it." Thomas said.

Thomas and Zachary would head to the living room a few minutes later, but the two little girls were laying on two little blankets. That had their names on it. They had been changed in new little outfit, sucking on their binky's. Sky had went out with his money, he got for helping around the house or his birthday money, and bought the girls a new outfit and had sown their names into blankets he bought for them.
Sky just put Johnathan on his bottom beside the girls, who had a new outfit too. Johnathan giggled and looked at the baby girls, before he seen his daddy. Johnathan got to his little feet and hurried over to Thomas who picked his son up. "Sky...where did you find that dress?" Thomas asked. "...It was supposed to be a surprise...but mum took me to the baby store and I got them an outfit!" Sky said. "You didn't have to do that, Sky." Thomas said. "They are my nieces! I promise I'll learn their names. For some reason, it's not coming easily, I don't understand that." He frowned at him self. "Its not a big deal, Sky. Thank you...For her dress. I...suppose I'm going to go get washed up. I go back to work Monday and have to stop by the store this evening." Zachary said. "Alright. Is Mary going with you?" Thomas asked. "Likely." Zachary said.

A few hours later. Draco's stomach started to hurt, but it was more like an upset stomach, not like the pains he had the last time he had either one of the twins. So, he assumed he needed to have a bit to eat and some water. He didn't eat much breakfast, and he was just likely hungry.
He stood at the stove, heating up some soup, when Victoria, the foury something year old pregnant wife of James Potter, Harry's father, joined him. "You looked flushed, Draco." She said softly. "I don't feel the best, no. I'm sure I just need some lunch. I don't need a babysitter." Draco said. "You do understand your six days away from your due date? It's to keep you and our daughter safe." Victoria said and Draco let out a sigh. "Fine, Fine. I'm fine. Just need some lunch I'd say." Draco said. "The young ones are still napping. Zachary seems worked up. Is he still worried about his father?" She asked. "Yes, he is. Harry and Siruis are going to see what can be done about it...but I don't really there much can be done. We adopted all three of them, and Siruis is certain he did he time... unless he comes near them, I don't think much can be done and that's scary too." Draco frowned. "I can make a couple calls myself, see what I can do, alright?" She asked. "anything you can find out, would be helpful yes." Draco said.

Draco wouldn't get to eat his lunch, in the way to dining room table. Draco cried out and the plate hit the ground. Draco, was in labor.

The hospital was filled, one again, and Harry pulled the chair over to beside the hospital bed Draco laid in. He wouldn't go for surgery for about an hour more, so they were just watching him and the baby girl close. "The kids?" Draco asked. "Are waiting to meet their little sister." Harry smiled lightly, placing a big kiss on his lips. "I guess the house is getting pretty full, hun." Draco said. "I think us having children should wait, personally ...But if it is important, we can talk about it in a few months." Harry said. "I'm not sure, Harry. I would like the option, but the thoughts on having another one, isn't currently there. I know there is a lot going on, a lot." Draco pointed out. "There is, but I want you happy." Harry said. "I know and I love that about you, but... currently, I just want things to claim down and everything get settled down before about child." Draco said. "Whatever you want, I promise." Harry said.
