chapter seven

Harry opened the door, and it revealed Draco. He smiled. "you're late." Harry said pointing at his watch. "it's only 20 minutes." Draco said. Harry nodded and let him inside. Before Harry closed the door, he saw a dark figure watching him. he felt trouble. "Come on let's go." Draco said when he picked Teddy up. "don't you need anything?" Harry asked. "No, I have everything." Draco said. Harry nodded and they apparated. They walked around for a while. Harry picked up Draco his hand. "Do you think this is a smart idea?" Draco asked. "They took an unbreakable vow." Harry said. Draco nodded and they sat on a bench. "I honestly like it. being outside." Draco said. "I know you like it." Harry said. "Get away!" Ron yelled. Harry looked up and saw Ron pointing his wand at someone who looked familiar. "Harry!" the person said. "That is Regulus." Draco said with a confused tone in his voice. "Who that?" Teddy asked. "I'm his father." Regulus said. "No, you aren't my parents are dead. you are dead." Harry said. "I faked my death. I am your dad. Your father and I had you. with Lily as a surrogate mother, that night they died, I wasn't home. Lily visited you very much. I survived. I had to clear my name before I could see you again." Regulus said. Harry was confused. "It can't be, why did no one ever told me?" Harry asked. "Dumbledore lied." Regulus said. harry didn't want to believe it. "I will tell you everything." Regulus said. Harry nodded. "But first, enjoy the day. I won't destroy it." Regulus said.

After a long day everyone returned home. "Draco can you put Teddy to bed?" Harry asked. Draco nodded and walked towards Teddy his room. "Harry. I'm sorry I left." Regulus said. "it's fine. I understand. You were scared." Harry said. "May I tell you the whole story?" Regulus asked. Harry nodded. "James and I met when I started at Hogwarts. My brother already knew James and we became friends. When James was sixteen, we started dating, I got a dark mark I was forced by my family. I never wanted it. when I told James he said that Voldemort was going to regret it. when we were graduated, we wanted to have a son or a daughter, so Lily volunteered to be surrogate mother and then you were born. I didn't want to serve Voldemort anymore, so I faked my death. No one except for James and you knew I was still alive. When Lily came over the day, they died I went to my house. I expect you know it. when I returned a few hours later I saw my brother begging to get you with him so he could feed you up. Hagrid told him that he couldn't raise a baby and a werewolf couldn't neither. Then he left with you. I saw Peter killing a street full of muggles and Sirius was taken to Azkaban. Everything changed since then. I started to clear my name and it worked yesterday the ministry declared me as a living free man. Sorry I missed everything of you." Regulus said. "I can't believe it." Harry said embracing Regulus. "I had family all this time and no one ever told me." Harry said. "I'm so sorry." Regulus said. "it's okay." Harry said. "I see history repeat itself." Regulus said. Harry looked at the man. "Draco, he was a death eater forced by his family. Loved by a Potter." Regulus smirked. Harry chuckled. "You found all our pictures?" Regulus asked. Harry nodded. "I can remember the last time James and I sang that song for you." he said pointing at a picture. Harry smiled. "You were such a cute little baby. With a big head and those cute chubby cheeks." Regulus chuckled. Harry blushed. "Do you have a place to sleep?" Harry asked. "I'm going to return to my house." Regulus answered. "You can sleep here tonight if you want." Harry said. Regulus smiled. "I've made a really polite little boy." Regulus said. Harry chuckled. Draco came back in the living room. "I think it's time to go back to hogwarts." He said. "You can sleep here. You know that." harry said. "I know but the teachers are going to be worried because I'm still a criminal." Draco said. "don't believe them. You are not a criminal." Harry said and hugged him. "I am." Draco said. "You are not a criminal. You are my boyfriend. I wouldn't be together with a criminal." Harry said. "Oh yeah right, you are the criminal, you are dating one of your students." Draco said. Harry kissed Draco on the lips. "See you Monday." Harry said. Draco nodded and left. "Your student?" Regulus asked. "we're the same age. To get his wand back he had to do another year at hogwarts. They asked me to be a teacher." Harry said. "I thought I was illegal." Regulus said. Harry chuckled. "Are you hungry?" Harry asked. "no. thank you for asking." Regulus responded and looked around. "I want applesauce!" Harry heard Teddy yelling. "Teddy, you know we don't have any left." Harry said when he opened the door. Teddy stuck out his tongue. "Come on, you have to sleep." Harry said. "Song!" Teddy yelled. "Fine." Harry said.

He closed Teddy his door. "You still know that song?" Regulus asked. "Sirius once told me about it." Harry answered. "He got out of Azkaban. The first wizard in history who managed it." Regulus chuckled. "Great brother you have." Harry said. "I always wanted a brother for you, or a sister of course." Regulus smiled. "Did you ever visit his grave?" Regulus asked. "Lily is a Potter." Harry said. "No, everyone thought they were married." Regulus said. Harry nodded. "you're the last one of them. I miss everyone so much." Harry said. Regulus hugged him. "I wish they were here." Regulus said. Harry nodded. "I have the stone of resurrection. I once used it. I saw my dad and Lily and Remus and Sirius." Harry said. "Can you bring them back? For just a moment?" Regulus asked. Harry looked at him. "I've never thought about that." Harry said walked towards his kitchen. "Why is that cupboard closed?" he asked. "It is with magical stuff in it." Harry answered and opened it. "who's wand is that," Regulus asked. "Draco." Harry said. Regulus nodded. "The invisibility cloak. How much James used that to get into the Slytherin common room to see me." Regulus chuckled. Harry smiled and picked up the tiny stone. A few ghosts appeared in front of them. James Sirius and Remus. "Long time no see Reggie." Sirius said. Regulus smiled. "you're a bastard you know that?" Remus asked. "I'm not the only one." he said eying to James. Harry left the room he was still confused about what just happened. He entered his bedroom and lied down on his bed. "Why is my life this confusing?" Harry asked, knowing he wasn't going to have an answer. He thought about everything, he felt happy to know he had some family alive and, he was angry because everyone lied to him his whole life.
