Harry POV
-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-

The next few days were pretty weird. Draco had more death eater duties, to where he would always come home depressed until I kissed him. I had more private lessons with Dumbledore, learning about the past.
Draco got depressed over these past few days, always sulking and keeping his head down. This death eater thing is really getting to him. I tried helping, and he seemed to light up whenever he saw me in our dorm. Even though I could tell he was broken inside, he kept his head up; putting on an act the he was alright. Everyone else bought it but me.
I knew that he didn't want to be a death eater. Sure, it hurt at first when I found out, but I only felt that feeling of hurt because I knew Draco was forced to do whatever Voldemort wanted. If that meant that he wanted Draco to kill someone, he had to unless he wanted to be tortured to death. If that meant Voldemort wanted sex, Draco had to choke back his sobs and get raped. No choice but death. And it killed me.
But yet, even though he comes from a sort of broken home, he's still sweet and kind. Sure, he's more careful about looking over his shoulder and more alert and aware, but he still smiled. Even though he's been tortured. He still laughs, even when he's seen people getting murdered. He still cares, even though many around him don't. He still wants to do everything like we normally would, even though he was raped many times (I didn't ask how many because it was really touchy for him) in the course of 3 months.
I sighed and fell onto the bed, and thought about the Slughorn party thing coming up. I needed a date, which would of course be Draco. Right on time, precisely 7:00, he came back to the dorm.
"Hi Draco!" I yelled to the coat room.
"Hi Harry!" He yelled back.
I hoped off the bed and made my way to where he was, kissing his cheek. He smiled and wrapped his arms around me, but I knew something was off.
"What's the matter?" I asked softly. He looked at me through his eyelashes.
"Oh... Just the vanishing cabinet. Voldemort says he needs it done soon, and I can't figure it out." He said.
"Need my help?" I asked. He looked up, eyes wide.
"No. I'm not getting you into this. I appreciate that you want to help, but You aren't getting hurt because of it." He said. I huffed.
"Okay fine. Are you sure you're okay though?" I asked him. He nodded. "You know you can always talk to me, right? I'll listen." I said, keeping my voice gentle. He nodded. We stripped into nothing, and went to bed.
That night I was woken by something shaking my body.
"Harry," I heard Draco say with his voice cracking. I snapped my eyes open, and sat up to be the same height he was.
"Yes baby, what is it?" I asked.
"Nightmare..." Draco mumbled, looking down. I pulled him to my chest, and he breathed out. He clutched on to me, and sighed as he pressed his face to my neck.
"Voldemort raped me again," he whispered. "In my nightmare... Sorry I woke you up. I was scared."
"Hey, you're always there for me when I have nightmares, and I'll always be here for you. Now," I said gently as I laid back with him cuddled up in my chest. "Do you want to go back to sleep? Cuddle? Talk? I don't care, as long as you're okay."
"I want a hug." He said quietly. I pulled him to my chest, and hugged him tightly. "I don't want you to ever leave me," he whispered. I kissed his head.
"Not a chance," I whispered. "I love you."
"I love you too," he whispered. He smuggled into my neck, and kissed it softly.
"How's your meetings with Dumbledore going?" Draco asked in a quiet voice.
"Pretty good. I'm just learning about the past. He's trying I teach me as much as he can since he waited until now." I said as I stroked his hair. He hummed.
"I don't know what I'm going to do..." He whispered. I ran my fingers through his hair, pushing it back.
"What?" I asked gently.
"I can't kill him." He whispered. I kissed his head.
"Whatever decision you make, I'll be proud and love you the same." I said, and I felt his tears drip onto my neck.
"Hey..." I whispered. "It will be okay. You'll see, this will all be over soon. Then once it's all over, we can get married and start a life together." I pet his hair, and he sniffled a little. "You'll see, everything will be alright." I whispered.
--------------------------

The next day at breakfast, I held Draco's hand tightly as we ate. He stole my cup of water, and I pouted as he looked at me while drinking it. He had to stop short because he looked t the door with wide eyes.
I whipped my head over, and there stood Remus. He was scanning the students, and huffed.
"Harry?! Cmon! And Draco oh can come too! Just get up and meet me at St. Mungos!" He yelled, and ran out.
"Fuck, it must be the baby." Draco said. We shot out of our seats and jogged to the door, and ran down the halls to get to hogsmeade.
I grabbed Draco's hand, and he apparated us to St. Mungos. Mainly because we just learned how to apparate and Draco had more experience.
Once we got there, we went to the receptionist. She flashed us a smile, and let us wait in one of the waiting rooms while Remus was in the room.
I felt Draco grab my hand, and I laid my head in his shoulder. He kissed my head, and I looked at the tv they had in the corner. It had a cartoon on, because a little girl was waiting with her dad for something. Then we heard a gasp, and little feet running over.
A little boy came over, couldn't be older than six, and smiled. His brown hair was down to his ears, and he had brown eyes.
"What's it like being a grown up?" He asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Well, pretty cool I'd say. You get to do all sorts of cool stuff like go to school at Hogwarts and apparate," I said.
"Then, you can go to this place called Hogsmeade. It's at Hogwarts, so you'll have to wait a bit, but it's pretty cool." Draco said.
"Really?!" He exclaimed. I smiled and nodded. "What's it like having a girlfriend? Do you have a girlfriend? Is she nice?" He asked. His mother came over, and looked at her son with pleading eyes that said 'please don't embarrass me' I chuckled a little.
"Well, I don't have a girlfriend, I have a boyfriend, but yes, he is nice." I said. He gasped and smiled.
"You can have a boyfriend?!" He asked. He turned to his mom. "Mommy! Did you know that? You can have a boyfriend?! Can I have a boyfriend?" He asked. His mom smiled and ruffled his hair.
"If you'd like one, then sure." She said. I saw Draco smile widely. I did the same.
"Cool!" He yelled, and turned back to me. "Okay! My name is Tommy by the way! Bye bye!" He said, and ran to play with some blocks.
"That was officially the cutest thing ever." Draco said. The mom turned to us.
"I'm so sorry, did he bother you two at all?" She asked. "He ran from where I was and then I saw him talking to you,"
"No ma'am, he was very nice." I said. She smiled.
"Well, now I know he most likely likes boys. No problem. If you don't mind me asking, is it hard to be gay with like, peers?" She asked. I bit my lip.
"Well, you'll always have homophobes. That's just how it is. But, if your son has great friends, they should accept him. Most of Hogwarts right now accepts us, only one or two homophobes in the whole school. Over all, I'd say it's now difficult with press. But that's because I'm with Harry. So there's gonna be press. We just learn to let things people say go. It's easier in the long run." Draco said. The woman smile and nodded.
"Thank you." She said with a smile, and went to get her son.
"That was adorable," I said as I snuggled into Draco's side. He nodded and kissed my head.
"Now we've just gotta wait for-"
Draco was cut off by doctors yelling and rushing into a room. I glanced at it, and saw Remus run in. It was Tonks' room.
