Draco's pregnancy brought about a whirlwind of emotions, and Harry found himself navigating a new and challenging landscape. As Draco's body began to change, so did his moods. He could swing from tearful and vulnerable to radiant and joyful in the span of a few minutes. Harry quickly learned to adapt, offering support and comfort whenever Draco needed it.

One morning, Harry woke to find Draco curled up against him, clinging tightly. Draco's face was peaceful in sleep, but Harry could sense the undercurrent of worry and fear in his mate's emotions. Gently, he stroked Draco's hair, murmuring soothing words.

Draco stirred, opening his eyes and looking up at Harry with a small smile. "Good morning," he whispered, his voice thick with sleep.

"Good morning, love," Harry replied, kissing Draco's forehead. "How are you feeling?"

Draco snuggled closer, his face pressed against Harry's chest. "A bit overwhelmed, if I'm being honest. But having you here helps."

Harry held Draco tightly, his heart swelling with love and protectiveness. "I'm here, Draco. Always. We'll get through this together."

Draco sighed contentedly, closing his eyes and soaking in Harry's presence. "Thank you, Harry. I don't know what I'd do without you."

Harry's heart ached at the vulnerability in Draco's voice. "You never have to find out. I'm not going anywhere."

As the days passed, Draco's emotions became more intense. He was often teary and clingy, seeking constant reassurance from Harry. Harry quickly learned to embrace these moments, holding Draco close and whispering words of love and comfort.

One evening, as they sat together on the couch, Draco suddenly burst into tears. Harry immediately pulled him into a tight embrace, rubbing soothing circles on his back.

"What's wrong, Draco?" Harry asked gently, his heart breaking at the sight of his omega's distress.

"I don't know," Draco sobbed, burying his face in Harry's shoulder. "I just feel so overwhelmed and scared. What if something happens to the baby? What if I'm not a good parent?"

Harry's protective instincts flared up, and he tightened his hold on Draco. "Draco, you're going to be an amazing parent. And nothing is going to happen to our baby. I'm here, and I'll protect both of you with everything I have."

Draco sniffled, looking up at Harry with tear-filled eyes. "Do you really think so?"

Harry smiled, brushing a tear from Draco's cheek. "I know so. You're strong, kind, and loving. Our baby is lucky to have you."

Draco's tears slowly subsided, replaced by a small, grateful smile. "Thank you, Harry. I don't know what I'd do without you."

Harry kissed Draco's forehead, holding him close. "You don't have to find out. I'm here, always."
