Harry stretched with a yawn as he made his way into the kitchen, Lucius had woken grumbling about how late it was when he had cast a tempus to see it was 10:30 before hurrying to the shower after kissing Harry. Still half asleep Harry had decided to go and make some breakfast for them complaining to himself about the fact he was up early on a Sunday when they had gone to bed so late.

Wandering over to the kettle for some much needed coffee he absently kissed Draco's forehead and then Charlie's as he passed, stifling another yawn as he finally reached the kettle. Sniffing he frowned before turning to the two of them.

"What the heck is that smell?" He asked wrinkling his nose.

"Charlie tried to cook breakfast for us, it didn't really go well," Draco pointed to the pan on the cooker. Peering inside Harry blinked at the black…mass that was stuck firmly to the bottom of it.

"Do I want to know what it used to be?" Harry asked walking over to the bin and throwing the pan in it. It was beyond saving even with spells.

"I thought I was making porridge," Charlie grinned with a shrug.

"What do you want for breakfast?" Harry rolled his eyes.

"Pancakes?" Draco asked hopefully.

"Ok, pancakes it is. You better not have stayed here over night Draco Malfoy," Harry said firmly as he started mixing together the ingredients he would need.

"You stay over," Draco pouted.

"I stayed with you the first night," Harry frowned turning around to look between them.

"That's not fair, but don't worry I came up this morning I didn't break any stupid rules," Draco snarked.

"Don't speak to me like that Draco, I'm trying to make this as easy as possible for everyone. What exactly do you think your father would do if you had snuck in last night, and who would he blame? You may be mates but he can still draw out the bonding process between you. Not to mention the fact you haven't even been bonded for a day and you're a submissive veela," Harry's tone was soft but the bite was clear enough to make Draco wince.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to snap at you," Draco said a little miserably. Beside him Charlie twitched looking like he wasn't quite sure what to do but Harry bent over the counter between them and kissed Draco's forehead again.

"I know this is confusing and there is a hell of a lot going on and to adjust to all at once, not to mention even Lucius isn't sure what having two unsealed bonds in the family at once will do, but please remember we only have your best interests at heart and want to look after you," Harry said firmly but with a small smile to show Draco he wasn't angry. Getting a small sniff and a nod Harry tugged Draco into a slightly awkward hug over the counter before going back to mixing his batter. "You alright there Charlie, you're feeling a little lost," Harry added.

"I guess I'm just trying to get used to this, I can feel Draco, and I think I am starting to feel you and Lucius, and I know now you can feel me. Its just..its all very weird, not to mention there is a small part of me that thinks…" Charlie drew off with a frown.

"That thinks what?" Harry asked concerned as to what exactly was going through the redhead's mind.

"Well, that thinks of you as…some sort of parent!" Charlie blurted out turning red as soon as he said it. Draco smiled brightly while Harry blinked at him a little confused.
