"Daddy! Look at the kitty!" A small hand reached towards the snowy white animal in front of him before his father grabbed it.

"Scorp! What did I say about touching strays?" Draco Malfoy looked almost frightened, pulling his son a few steps away then squatting down as he wrapped his son's scarf more securely around his neck.

"But it isn't a stray, Daddy," said the little boy staring with big eyes at his father. "Look at it. It has a tag and everything!"

Before he could respond a deep chuckle sounded and he could feel himself relaxing a bit. Astoria was in France again. On business, she said. It wasn't his problem anymore.

Happily divorced, he told his mother every time she asked. He was happily divorced. Not lonely at all. He had Scorpius. Why would he need anyone else?

"Thank you, for finding my cat, little guy," said the voice behind him. Scorpius looked over his father's shoulder with a smile and Draco sat back on his haunches before standing back up and turning towards that deep chuckle.

Just one glance couldn't hurt, right?

Wrong!

Draco gulped as he stared into the most beautiful emerald eyes he had ever seen.

"Malfoy," said the voice familiarly. Draco blinked a few times before it finally dawned on him.

"Potter?" he said more like a question. The man in front of him chuckled again.

"Do I really look that different?" he asked as he bent forward and scooped up the small white kitten. "It's just a temporary spell until my glasses come in. Gin insisted I get a custom pair since I can afford them now and I wasn't using the money for anything anyway."

"Gin?"

"Oh, Ginny."

"Sorry, Potter. Still drawing a blank."

"Red hair? Freckles? Master of bat bogey hexes? Temper the size of-"

"Oh. You mean the She-Weasel." At the look Harry sent him he blanched and looked away. "I-I mean...Ginevra."

"Don't let her hear you call her that," said Harry with that easy grin back on his face. "I think she would prefer She-Weasel, to be honest."

Harry actually laughed this time and Draco couldn't help but smile as his son joined in even though he had no idea what was so funny. When Harry heard the second noise he stopped and looked down towards the miniature blonde.

"Uh oh," mumbled Scorpius hiding behind his father's leg.

"And who is this little hero?"

"This is my son, Scorpius. Say hello, Scorp."

"Hero?" asked Scorpius instead. "I'm not a hero."

"Of course you are," said Harry getting down to eye level with the small boy while petting the kitten softly. "You found Dragon. I've been looking for him all day!"

"You named your cat, Dragon?" asked Draco with his usual sneer in an attempt to push down the blooming feeling in his chest at the way Potter looked now. The way his voice sounded. His new air of confidence.

"Well yeah. Look at him. He reminded me of you, but I couldn't go around carrying a kitten named Draco all over town. People would be concerned."

Draco looked at him in shock, but Harry only sent him a blinding grin before the small kitten mewed in agreement.
