The months following the final battle were not easy for the family, but then again, when had anything been easy for any of them? Remus healed well, only new scars and a slight limp to show for his grisly fight with the nastiest werewolf of their times. Scorpius got away with nothing more than some nasty scarring, but being a teenage boy, thought it was bad ass. Alex was unharmed physically, and Draco came away looking unharmed, as all his injuries were superficial. Harry fared the worst of them all, having now lost the use of what legs he had left. Hogwarts, having been reconstructed, was reopened, and both boys were sent back. Draco decided to return to Hogwarts as well, just so he could be around for the boys. He had planned to return back to London as often as he could to spend time with Harry, and they also promised to write regularly. Remus promised Draco, several times a day every day, that he would take great care of Harry. ("Honestly Draco, I did have a hand in raising him.") August 31, Harry and Draco spent the whole day together, the boys having gone out with Remus. 

"You remember the first time we met?" Draco looked down at Harry, who was laying in his lap.

"You mean when you insulted the first friend I ever made and made me feel like a moron?" Harry smirked up at the blond.

"Yeah that time," Draco chuckled.

"We sure have come a long way since we were eleven."

"We sure have," Draco kissed Harry.

"What's your favorite moment we've had?" Harry gave Draco a questioning look, curious to what answer he was going to get.

"The night of the sleepover." Draco didn't hesitate. "It was the first time we kissed. That night is the best night of my life because it started all of this, our life together." 

"Who knew Draco Malfoy was a sap?" Harry poked Draco in the ticklish spot in his ribs.

"Oh, shut up, Potter," Draco playfully swatted Harry's arm. "What about you? What was your favorite moment?"

"That first night when we both had nightmares and ended up sleeping together through the night. That night, I slept the best I had in a long time and decided, I would like to do that forever." Harry held that first night very dearly.

"Hopefully we have much more memories to make," Draco kissed his husband sweetly.

"Of course we will, we are going to grow old together," And with a content sigh, Harry knew he could never ask for more.
