Chapter ten
Three sets of eyes widened shocked as the events of the last few moments sank in and they all tried to sort them out in their heads. Black, green and blue flickered between each other before the black ones narrowed.
"Draco, what the hell is going on here?" Severus snarled at his godson who was standing in front of Harry, his wand still drawn from the shielding spell he had thrown up even as he moved his body in front of Harry as well to act as an extra shield. Harry's own wand was drawn but he hadn't had time to use it before Draco was moving into action.
"We'll explain when you put your wand away," Draco said firmly, his tense posture not shifting even as Harry shuffled to his feet behind him.
"What the hell is Potter doing here?!" Severus spat out his name with enough venom to make Harry wince. He didn't think that even his freaky luck since entering the Ministry almost four months ago now would hold in convincing Severus to give him a chance and be alright with this situation.
"Severus, calm down!" Draco said firmly, his hand reaching back behind him to feel for Harry to make sure he stayed behind him.
"The hell! What is he doing here?!" Severus roared furiously.
"He's pregnant, father's is the father, they're together," Draco said quickly making Harry wince, that was not the best way to reveal the news, though Draco did appear to have a reason for it as Severus's wand quickly went sailing towards them with very little fight from the potions Master.
"He's..."
"Pregnant, yes you heard right professor," Harry nodded from behind Draco.
"But...no, that's not possible, Lucius wouldn't..." Severus shook his head frowning.
"I assure you he did. And they're together. And Father's happy," Draco's tone of warning warmed something in Harry and made him smile a little. Over the last three weeks they were slowly getting used to each other and becoming more friendly and less formal.
"This is why Lucius is divorcing Narcissa, he is why?" Severus sneered, again spitting out his words.
"Yes, he finally requested the divorce because of Harry and the babies," Draco nodded, Harry's name rolling off his tongue a lot easier after three weeks of use.
"He's tricking him somehow," Severus sneered.
"He's not, you think I haven't thought the same thing? I've seen them together, and no matter what you want to say about Harry - which I advise you don't, especially in front of father - he always wears his heart on his sleeve and his feelings clear for everyone to see, and the way he looks at father, he's falling in love with him, if he doesn't already love him," Draco said making Harry blink shocked at the back of Draco's head. Love Lucius? Already in love with him? He knew he was falling for him sure, but already?
"....arrogant, self obsessed, self interested..." Harry was brought back to the situation to hear a rant that was no doubt about him when he caught sight of Blaise backing away from the doorway. Seeing he had Harry's attention he made a motion down the corridor, indicating that he was going to get Lucius and/or Marcus he thought, so he nodded his understanding watching Blaise hurry down the corridor.
"That's enough! That is the bearer of my brothers that you are talking about, and my friend!" Draco snapped, visibly stunning Harry and Severus.
"Draco..."
"No! Severus you know nothing of this situation, and I'm sorry to say you know nothing about Harry," Harry could nearly hear the scowl in Draco's voice, his stance still protective as he stood in front of Harry, his hand on Harry's side keeping him firmly behind him.
