Chapter Three-Old Friends and New Family

Crossover between Harry Potter and Bleach

Pairings: Threesome between StarrkxHarryxGrimmjow


After spending an hour of the Espada's playing and talking with their mate they were interrupted by Dray running in and catching his breath.

"Dray is everything okay?" Harry asked worriedly.

"Aurors are at Severus' house trying to arrest him but nothing he says will get through to them." Dray sat down. "They were also going to take me but he apparated me here. What are we going to do? They're taking him to Azkaban!"

Starrk walked up to the blond and cupped his face. "First calm down. Second tell us everything that happened and what was said."

Dray took a moment to calm down and then he sat beside Harry. It was a disaster. How could they tell the aurors of their innocence if they wouldn't even listen?

"We went to Severus' house when Professor McGonagall thought we would be better off there. Besides without you at our sides most people don't exactly warm up to us Harry." Dray sighed. "It felt like only one moment we had no thoughts, no worries or care. We just wanted a moment of peace before having to pick up the pieces of our lives. We never heard them and before we knew they were just there. There was shouting about us being servants of the Dark Lord and Dark Marks. I was forced into mine but what no one knows was that Severus volunteered to better protect you Harry. They won't believe it though."

Harry mulled everything over and started pacing the room. "Yes they'll believe it one way or another."

Dray looked up. "How? This is the aurors we're talking about. Part of the Ministry."

"Who am I Draco Malfoy?" Harry smirked deviously. Draco caught on and began laughing only further confusing the two Espada.

"Harry James Potter the Savior of the Wizarding World." Dray said with a sympathetic smile. "I can assure you Severus and I never wanted you to use your name since it only brought you a headache."

"It's okay." Harry smiled. "At least I can do something with it for once."

Starrk looked to Grimmjow who could only return a look of lost confusion.

"What's going on now?" Grimmjow asked. "And who is this?"

"I'm sorry." Harry said bashfully. "This is Draco Malfoy my old enemy turned brother. And we're going to have Severus released from his prison sentence."

At the last part did the two growl. Severus, though acerbic, was still their good friend and didn't deserve a prison sentence.

"Why the fuck would they imprison him?" Grimmjow ground out trying to reign in his temper.

The blond answered. "Because they want to imprison all who had adorned the Dark Marks. Like I said a moment ago I was forced to into becoming a Death-Eater but to help protect Harry, Severus voluntarily became one. I'm a Malfoy so many won't even think to listen to me. I hold no power after all my father has done."

"If you hold no power then you have nothing in the Britain Wizarding World." The other wizard spoke up as if just realizing what was wrong. "Draco what are you going to do?"

Dray looked down at the floor and shrugged. "I suppose I'll just move off and start over somewhere. It would take me more than my lifetime to make up for this whole fiasco."

Seeing that their mate's friend was in a bad way did the two Espada reach out and gave the blond a comforting hand on his shoulders.

"You could always tag along with us when we leave." Starrk said. Besides I have to get back to Lilynette and explain all this.

"Are you sure?" Dray said with barely hidden hope.

Harry lunged for Dray and hugged him. "I'm not going alone! Thank you Starrk and Grimmjow!"

"We're taking Severus with us too you know." Grimmjow scoffed. "Can't leave that surly bastard to himself."

"Wait it sounds like you know Severus. How?" Dray stood by Harry and both wore looks of curiosity.

Grimmjow hoped that it wouldn't be too strange for Harry to find out that his mates were much, much older than he was and that they were there on the night he was born. Though to be fair he and Starrk hadn't been looking for a mate. Or Grimmjow hadn't but they found one who shared his soul with both of them. The moment they laid eyes on the baby did it feel like a silver lining pulling them to him heart, mind and soul.

"Well we kind of met Severus on the day Harry was born." Grimmjow said lowly hoping he wouldn't be heard.

After a moment of silence Draco was the one to clear his throat. "Excuse me but did you say you met Severus when Harry was born?" At his nod did the blond continue. "And you haven't aged a day I presume?"

"No, we haven't." Starrk sighed. "We're not human in a sense. We're called Espada's and our home is in Hueco Mundo where the law is 'eat or be eaten'. Most do not find their mate's and for those that do they try their best to keep them protected from their enemies. In our world everyone has enemies."

"But there are those who don't even go looking for mate's for fear of not being able to protect them enough." Grimmjow looked straight into Harry's eyes. "I was one of those who didn't dare search. I was, am still, afraid of not protecting you and given what's happened here I already failed. It's true that I covet battles but it's because I know nothing else."

It took Harry a few moments to process what had been said but it was too much. Just when he thought he could get past one trouble or find one moment of peace something else came up. To be told your mates were ageless wasn't a good thing in Harry's book. Not at the moment it wasn't. He couldn't handle this. So he did the one thing he hated to do. He walked off raising his hands to ward off Starrk and Grimmjow.

Draco stood there awkwardly. "I get where Harry's coming from but maybe this was little too much for him. Just be patient with him please."

Starrk looked at the blond and finally noticed the bond he shared with his now upset mate. "So you're his soul brother?"

"Is that what this is?" Draco thought it over. "I noticed this sort of pull to him when I saw him in that hallway but I could never place what it was. You see after my dark mark disappeared it was like everything was clearer and when Harry came into that hallway my rivalry with him ebbed away. I think what my father had been doing helped stem my anger towards him."

"Your father?" Grimmjow asked.

"Yes Lucius Malfoy was a Death-Eater and believed in what the Dark Lord stood for. I didn't in the beginning and after expressing that to him he started..." Draco trailed off remembering bits and pieces of what went on inside the Malfoy Manor. "Anyways what happened, happened and there's no use dwelling on it. My mind is clear without the Dark Lord and my father around and I'm happy with that."

Draco hurried off in Harry's direction leaving the two Espada worried about the blond. Now that they realized how important Draco was to Harry they wanted to protect him too.

"Starrk." Said male hummed in acknowledgement. "This is a mess and what do we do about Draco?"

"We wait." Starrk walked off to help finish repairing the castle. "It's all we can do."


After walking a bit aways from Hogwarts Harry found himself by the lake. He didn't know why he was upset really only that it had been too much to handle for one day. Besides how many other people could handle the news of their mates being ageless. But with the scar that was displayed on Grimmjow's chest it was obvious they weren't immortal just ageless.

Looking at the lake he realized that Voldemort was gone. He was finally gone and even though he had had to die to get rid of the dark piece of soul inside him he had done it. He had done what everyone expected him to.

"But what am I going to do now?" Harry asked no one in particular.

"You could always sleep it off." Draco said lazily from behind the dark haired wizard. "It helps sometimes."

"Yes but that means nightmares. I don't think I could handle that at the moment either."

"Take a dream draught." Draco countered.

Harry sighed loudly. "Dray what am I going to do? I mean I'm not that upset with them but I just don't want to be around them at the moment. Not many people could possibly be putting up with all this in one day could they?"

The blond chuckled. "No I don't think they could but you're holding up far better than I would have thought. Besides I think you're just trying to gather your wits and find solid ground again and they didn't help a few moments ago."

Harry laughed humorlessly. "No they didn't. Still it feels kind of nice to have them defending Severus. I could tell they care for him like he was an old friend you know? And I just realized Voldemort is really gone. Like forever gone."

Draco smiled. Maybe now everyone could move forward from under this dark cloud Voldemort had conjured. Even he knew that Tom Riddle had been just like them in Hogwarts and had only fallen in between the cracks of authority. Between people who should have been watching over him and guiding him. In a way the roles could have been reversed with Harry and Tom but they weren't and he was glad for that saving grace. Who could imagine a world where Harry Potter hated the world?

"Don't give up." Draco murmured quietly. "I know you're tired but don't give up just yet. Your entire future lies ahead of you Harry. No one knows where you're going but I know that where ever it is those two males will be there for you. Your time of fighting is over here. Tell me in all honesty do you have anything left here? Don't even think of picking up the pieces of the Ministry. Leave that to Shacklebolt. Don't think of Hogwarts right now either because this place will always pick itself back up. So what's here?"

All that was true. Harry was tired and just wanted to stop for awhile but what Draco said was true. He couldn't give up after all this. If he allowed himself to stop he was afraid he'd quit and never find his will to go on again. But was it so simple that his time of fighting was over? Something told him there was another battle to be won but it wasn't here.

"I guess when I finally let everything settle in my mind I'm going to let them take me to wherever they want to take me but other than that you're right. I can't give up just yet." Harry sighed tiredly. "Even though I feel like I could sleep forever."

They both sat down the watch the small waves beat at the bank in front of them. Everything around them felt like it was at a standstill while at the same time moving too fast to comprehend. After this day nothing would be the same yet Hogwarts seemed almost eternal. Harry looked over at the ancient castle and noted that even though a battle was just fought it looked ever standing and proud.

"You're right. Hogwarts will be fine too." Harry murmured but suddenly felt Draco lean over his shoulder. Looking at the blond he found him asleep. "What am I going to do with you Dray?"

With a smile he left Draco there to sleep for a bit.

Could he just plainly accept everything about his mates? In every sense the men were strangers to him but his soul called out to them even now. His mind told him to be wary and his heart told him to trust them. It would seem he was very conflicted on what to do or think. But Draco wanted him to jump headlong into this without any thought. To just put every fiber of his being into trusting Starrk and Grimmjow.

It could be just that simple. Trusting them would be letting them lead him.

"Like they did earlier." Harry said remembering how they took control of his moment of misery and told him to put it all away for tomorrow. To calm himself today and deal with it all tomorrow one step at a time. "Maybe it wouldn't be so bad."

He vaguely wondered where they would take him when they got ready to leave. They certainly didn't look like they were from around Britain but they also said they were from a world called Hueco Mundo and if he remembered correctly that meant Hollow World. It didn't sound so appealing.

A few hours passed him by in no time and Harry had since moved Draco's head to his lap. He hadn't even closed his eyes for sleep at all in that time but had instead been thinking of his mates and what it is he should do next. For one he would have to apologize for his behavior and two he needed to see to something for himself. Lastly he just wanted to talk to them for a few hours to get to know them a little and they him. If it was one thing he learned this matehood thing was a three way street with them all. He would have said two but there were three of them so...

He had also sent his patronus to Shacklebolt to petition for Severus and told the new Minister of Magic that he would be by the next day to show him his memories of what happened. Shacklebolt reluctantly agreed and said he placed Severus in a more comfortable cell. That made Harry want to laugh since no cell on earth could be comfortable. It meant lost freedom and it was soul searing to see those bars or any kind of isolating barriers around oneself.

"Penny for your thoughts?" Draco murmured.

"As if you would deign to touch a penny." Harry chuckled.

"True. How long was I asleep?"

"A few hours now I think."

Draco sat up quickly. "Why would you let me sleep that long? What about Severus?"

"I've already spoken with Shacklebolt and said I would meet with him tomorrow but in the meantime Severus should be fine. He seemed to believe me but I still need to show him my memories since it's procedure." Harry sighed. "I feel tired but I know I can't sleep."

"Well I had no problem." Draco said as he stood up.

"Of course not." Harry smirked. "You had a comfortable pillow."

"Your comfort leaves little to be desired since my neck hurts." The blond retorted.

Harry laughed at him. "Come on let's find Starrk and Grimmjow."

"Is that their names?" Draco said in wonder. "Interesting."

"I hate to say it but I like the sound of Grimmjow Jeagerjaques' name a lot. Though Starrk's is Coyote Starrk." The viridian eyed wizard smiled.

"Coyote? Isn't that a muggle animal?"

"I forget how sheltered you purebloods are." Harry muttered.

"Hey! I'm willing to learn!" Draco said in indignation.

They walked the rest of the way to the castle in silence while they mulled over things again. There was a lot to process and it still hadn't got through Harry just yet. Give him time though and he would be okay.

"I wonder where they are?" Harry asked when they stepped into the courtyard only to find some students lingering around glaring daggers at Draco. "I think they're over on the east side. Come on Dray."

When they made their way over some students stopped them. "What are you doing with this Slytherin?"

Their disdain was palpable. It nearly made Harry's blood boil to know Draco was threatened here.

"If I were you I'd back the fuck off and go the other way." Harry said icily shocking the small group of students. "Say something about Draco again and you won't live to regret it." When Draco made to grab his arm he shrugged it off. "As a matter of fact tell everyone else that Draco is under my protection now and if any of you have a thing to say about it then I guess you're shit out of luck because I don't want to hear it."

Harry dragged the blond behind him until he could see his mates still repairing the castle but what astounded him was the speed they were working. And the strength they held. One stone block should have been impossible for one person to lift barehanded but they could lift two at the same time.

"What the hell...?" Harry and Draco said simultaneously catching the Espada's attention.

Grimmjow looked to Harry like a berated child while Starrk was the epitome of calmness. Letting go of Draco's arm Harry stepped forward.

"I'm sorry for walking away earlier it's just when I felt like I almost found my ground again you kind of threw me off." Harry sighed while looking at the ground. "I really don't know what to do or where to go from here but I decided that maybe it wouldn't be so bad if I let you two lead me. That is if you want to."

It was Grimmjow that lifted his face up and when viridian eyes met the sexta's Harry couldn't help be drawn into them. Slowly Grimmjow brought his lips to his young mate's and relished the way Harry tilted his head to give him permission to do as he pleased. So he parted those lips and gently teased his mate's tongue into playing. It was obvious Harry was inexperienced but that made Grimmjow love the idea of teaching him everything there was to lovemaking in the future.

Suddenly thoughts of what Starrk could possibly do with them made Grimmjow purr lowly in his throat of which made Harry moan lightly. Nipping Harry's bottom lip Grimmjow pulled away.

"If you think you can trust us then we'll lead you." Grimmjow murmured. "We'll never lead you astray. That we promise."

"Well I say this is the epitome of awkward." Draco said from the side. "I don't have much places to go so what the hell do I do when you three decide to have-"

"Don't you dare finish that!" Harry said jumping at the blond and placing his hands on his mouth. "By Merlin don't finish that!"

The Espada's could see the mirth inside the blond's eyes and decided that he wasn't so bad. He helped to give reason to Harry and for that they were grateful for the boy's friendship to their mate. As the two bickered and wrestled each other Grimmjow and Starrk were highly amused by it.

"Harry?" Professor McGonagall said from a few feet away.

Harry stood. "Yes Professor?"

"Poppy would like to see you and Draco in the infirmary." McGonagall gave them a hard stare. "Now."

"But we're not-" Draco started only to be stopped by her glare.

"I understand not liking to be prodded by nurses and doctors but I would think you two would stop hiding your wounds like children and get them looked at." With that she turned and stormed off. They had forgotten how much she tried to keep the students looked after. But how did she forget to tell them to get their wounds looked at earlier? Then again they had Severus heal them as much as possible so it was a moot point to see Poppy.

"You're injured?" Starrk asked with a stoney voice.

Harry tensed before running out of the courtyard. "No I'm not!"

"He's lying." Draco said. "I know there's a wound on his chest from the killing curse. Not even Severus could heal that much."

At this the two Espada froze. "The what?"

"The killing curse and it does just what it implies." Draco turned to them with a graveness no teen should hold in their eyes. "It may have only been for a moment but Harry was killed by the Dark Lord. I wonder did either of you feel odd at one point in your search for Harry?"

Grimmjow slowly nodded his head. "We had felt such forlorn and emptiness but it lasted for only a moment and thought it was just in our minds. So it was...?"

Draco nodded. "Yes, you felt him die but he came back. But if I were you I would wait until Harry shared this with you willingly before bombarding him with questions he may not want to answer right away. Besides given today's excitement it may not be a good idea to bring it up for a while."

The thing was that he had heard of this from Severus since it seemed the man had also been in his own limbo even when he took the anti-venom there was no guarantee he would live. It was pure luck that Dumbledore found him in limbo and told him of the events that transpired and when Harry had reached his majority Severus had told Draco. It was amazing how much Harry went through but it wasn't fair to him either.

Draco left the two men to their thoughts and went to find Poppy.


Ichigo was still being hounded by his friends about what happened with Grimmjow and Starrk but what could he tell them? Damn they were getting annoying. He remembered the conversation he'd had in Kisuke's shop before coming to Hueco Mundo.

"Seriously can you just tell us and get it out of the way?" Uryu said scathingly. "This is why I hate shinigami."

"You know I kind of hope you go through the same thing I do. It would serve you right you annoying bastard." Ichigo retorted. "Kisuke! Can you help me in here?!"

"With what Ichigo?" Kisuke appeared out of nowhere it seemed.

"Do you know of soul bonds?" Ichigo looked to him pleadingly. "Please say you do and explain it to them. I'm not good with explainations and you are Kisuke. Please help me out!"

Ichigo's friends were kind of shocked. The strawberry rarely ever begged and much less to Kisuke Urahara of all people. They even watched as Ichigo pouted slightly making Kisuke whip out his fan to hide his smile.

Kisuke had no idea how Ichigo came to know of soul bonds but the only reason to bring up the topic was if one had experienced it. Or knew someone who trusted you enough to share something so monumental. Though many don't divulge this little secret it wasn't because it would cause an uproar or anything. No it was because it happened so rarely that those who have soul bonds tend to want to keep it a special secret just for themselves.

"I don't think they should know about this Ichigo." Kisuke said making Ichigo give a confused look.

"Why not?"

"It's not the kind of thing you can just tell everyone. This happens very rarely and for those that have this have kept theirs a secret except for the few choice people they trusted. You tell more than you should then you're telling everyone of your one weakness." Kisuke sat beside him. "What do people do with rare gems?"

"Collect them or store them away for safekeeping." Ichigo muttered before finally getting what Kisuke was talking about. "I get it now Kisuke and I think I'll keep this a secret until I figure it out entirely for myself first."

Kisuke smiled at the boy. "Wise decision."

"What about us? Why keep us in the dark over our enemies?" Uryu asked with a glare.

"Kisuke this is what I've been dealing with since Grimmjow and Starrk left! I want to tell them if only to get them to shut up but I don't want give this up so easily." Ichigo sighed before running his hands through his hair. "What do I do?"

"Well I have one idea." Kisuke called in Tessai. "Will you escort our guests out?"

"With pleasure Kisuke." Tessai bowed and with his intimidating aura chased the teens out of the shop.

"Thank you Tessai." Ichigo turned to the shop keeper. "Thanks Kisuke."

"Now who do you have a soul bond with and what kind is it?" Kisuke smiled behind his fan.

"Why should I tell you if you said I shouldn't tell them?" Ichigo asked in disbelief. The man was unbelievable. Making his friends leave just so he could get the details himself. "And here I thought you were doing this out of the goodness of your heart."

"Well then you must not know me too well."

Ichigo chuckled before frowning. "Grimmjow told me I had made a soul bond without realizing what I was doing. I mean I had a feeling of accepting something but I never questioned it. I just grabbed onto it with everything I had without knowing. He's now apparently my soul mate because he accepted this too but I think we both didn't know what we were doing."

Kisuke would normally revert back to his joking self but this was too serious for Ichigo.

"I assume Grimmjow offered his help with your soul bond?"

"Yes when he returns with his mates." Ichigo looked lost in thought.

"Mates? As in more than one?" Kisuke was curious now.

"Well he and Starrk share one mate who's somewhere in the world and they went after him. I don't much understand only that I want to help them."

"Hmm." Kisuke hummed lightly. "You still haven't told me who your soul mate is."

"If I tell promise me that you're not going to make a joke out of it. I don't think I can handle that right now."

Kisuke really didn't want to promise that but when he saw much Ichigo needed someone to confide in he didn't mind the promise.

"I promise."

"Well...it's..."

As it was now even Chad was getting on his case about the two Espada's.

"I thought friends didn't keep stuff like this from each other?" Chad inquired.

"It also doesn't help that your aiding the enemy by offering them a safe haven." Rukia piped up in anger.

"Is this what becoming a shinigami has made you?" Uryu asked trying to rib him into slipping up.

Ichigo was about to murder them all in this desert wasteland the Espada's called Hueco Mundo. Only the Arrancars were being quiet but Ichigo could tell that was wearing thin.

"If you can't shut the hell up about this already then turn the fuck around and get lost you damn assholes." Ichigo said coldly. "You're my friends but if this is how you are then I don't need you around to keep badgering me until I cave. I asked you to trust me and you don't. What does that say about you?"

At their silence did it feel like he got any peace and they continued in silence with Renji sitting by Ichigo trying to be a comforting wall for the strawberry to lean on. If Ichigo didn't get away from them soon though...they'd talk him death.


In the infirmary Harry sat on one bed while Draco sat on another. Poppy had run diagnostic charms over them and scolded them about not getting checked on while Draco kept rolling his eyes at the woman.

"There isn't much I can do about this Harry. I mean I can heal it but it'll scar." Poppy looked downtrodden.

"It's okay as long as it's healed." Harry said with a small smile.

After she healed him she turned to Draco and gave healing potions far stronger than what Severus gave him. "Now take this and you should heal completely."

They left as soon as they could and Harry found Starrk and Grimmjow still helping with the castle. A group of peope were openly staring at the Espada's making Harry tense. He didn't like how they were staring at his mates.

"Careful or you'll give away how green you are." Draco chuckled. "Don't worry about them it's your mates you need to trust. Think of it like the first step into matehood."

"Thanks." Harry grumbled.

"Welcome." Draco took his arm and walked them to Grimmjow and Starrk. "Now no more kissing unless you like voyeurs in the vicinity."

At that Harry glared at the blond before turning his glare to the group still watching his mates.

"What the hell do you think you're doing? Get lost." Harry said scathingly making them scatter. "Pests."

Draco had raised a brow and was smirking. "Interesting."

"Sod off too." Harry crossed his arms and kept glaring at the air. "I should just go talk to Shacklebolt and get Severus out as soon as possible and then we can leave."

"I agree let's go." Draco said in all seriousness. "Why didn't you think to do this when I came in?"

"I thought this was going to take forever but with them here it could be done with late this night." Harry looked to them and felt like kissing them. "We'll go in a few minutes Dray."

Apparently Draco knew the look on his face and smiled before running off. "I'll wait at the entrance."

Shaking his head Harry smiled at his two mates until he noticed Starrk staring at his chest. Someone told them.

"Can you wait until I'm ready to tell you?" Harry asked him. "I know I may be asking for a lot but please trust me when I say I'll tell you someday."

Starrk held his hand out to his young mate and waited until Harry was in his arms before swooping down for a kiss. He liked the feel of those lips against his and when Harry tilted his head for more Starrk gave it to him. Grimmjow had come up behind Harry and began kissing his neck softly.

"We'll wait for you to tell us but that doesn't mean we won't worry about you." Starrk said as he licked the shell of Harry's ear.

Harry nodded his head in understanding and turned in their arms to face Grimmjow. Green eyes filled with mirth as Grimmjow's head was pulled down and into a kiss much like Starrk's.

"I'm going to see Shacklebolt." Harry said as he stepped away from them. "Can I trust you two to help my friends here?"

Not really wanting to let their mate go into the unknown without them they could do nothing but try and gain Harry's trust first. They nodded and let their mate go with Draco.

"Should we have let them go?" Grimmjow muttered.

"Grimmjow..." Starrk growled making the sexta cringe.

"Sorry."

Harry met up with Draco and they were off to see Shacklebolt.

It took hours but they were finally cleared to enter the Minister's office and when Shacklebolt looked up at them he tensed upon seeing Draco. To Harry it was a wonder no auror's tried to arrest the blond while they were waiting.

"Harry what do I owe the honor? I thought I wasn't to see you until tomorrow?" The Minister got up and shook Harry's hand.

"I'm here to ask for the release of Severus Snape." Harry said point blank stunning the man. Of course he knew Harry was going to petition the Ministry with his memories but how to tell him that it may be unlikely that Severus would be released.

"I don't know if he can be released Harry." Shacklebolt said sternly. "He is a known Death-Eater."

"So was I Minister but I was forced into mine and you don't even know why Severus joined the Dark Lord." Draco said. "It wasn't to serve him it was to spy for Dumbledore!"

"Do you have any proof?" The Minister asked reproachfully to the ex-Death-Eater.

"Don't speak to him like that Minister. I don't like that tone." Harry pulled out a vial from his pocket. "Dumbledore told me how to retrieve this just in case Severus survived and if he was arrested. Truthfully this memory was to be a last resort but as I can see on your face this is my only choice. As my friend I'm giving you a warning that if he isn't released I will release him myself. Don't make the same mistake Fudge made by sending an innocent man to Azkaban. I will not stand by Shacklebolt. Believe me or don't but Dumbledore isn't here any longer and this is his memory with no tampering done to it."

Shacklebolt was shocked by the tone and he also just realized how much Harry had changed in the last day. Yes upon first looking at him when he entered the door he thought he was just another wizard coming to see their Minister and petition for something but he looked closer and noticed it was Harry. Then he saw Draco Malfoy and immediately wanted to have him arrested.

"I believe you Harry. You don't stand up to many people, your friends included, but when you do it's wise to trust you." Shacklebolt meant it. He had never met a kid with a more better intuition but he along with the Wizarding World was grateful for it and him. "I have to wonder though...why do you look so different?"

Harry blinked at the man. "Um, I'm part Veela, on my mother's side, and I just went through my majority earlier."

"Doesn't feel like it's only been hours does it Harry?" Draco murmured.

"No it doesn't Dray." Harry looked over at the blond and sighed. "I'm so damn tired though."

"I told you not to give up!" Draco scolded the dark haired wizard like a child. "Just hold on until your mates take you home."

"Mates?" The Minister asked alarmed. He thought Harry was too young for a mate. Or mates.

"Yes my mates are Coyote Starrk and Grimmjow Jaegerjaques. Both arrived not too long after my majority." Harry noticed the look on his face and sighed. "Don't even start on my age Shacklebolt. When I went through my majority I was already considered an adult by the Wizarding World. Besides you should see them. Who would say no to those two males?"

Harry was looking away a bit dazed. Draco chuckled before laughing. His newfound brother was something else. With the Dark Lord gone and the pressure off his shoulders Harry was so playful.

The Minister looked a bit flustered by that comment and cleared his throat getting their attention.

"I'll release Severus but it's going to take a few hours for the paperwork to go through."

Harry glared at him. "Release him now and do your paperwork on your own time."

Shacklebolt had never seen Harry so forceful or look so biting.

"Uh, sure. I'll call someone to bring him here." The Minister got on the phone and began going through that meanwhile Draco looked at Harry with raised brows.

"Impressive."

"Thanks. I thought so." Harry smirked. It was good to have friends in high places.

"I know what you're thinking." Draco chuckled. "Now you know how I felt when in school and threatened everyone."

"You're right Dray and I'm sorry but you were still an asshole." Harry smiled sweetly at the blond's glare. "I'm going to sit down."

Draco followed Harry and sat beside him on a couch.

"This is an uncomfortable couch." Draco muttered.

Harry chuckled. "Deal with it."

"But I don't want to." Draco sighed. "I wonder how long this will take."

"I hope not long because I'd like to get back to Starrk and Grimmjow."

The blond laid his head down on Harry's lap shocking said wizard. Harry wasn't used to being affectionate with anyone but he found he liked being the one Draco relied on as a brother. It was nice and since Harry's mates had arrived Draco looked at them like older brothers. Of course it didn't go unnoticed that Starrk and Grimmjow looked at the blond fondly like a little brother themselves.

"Perhaps I'll find my mate wherever we go." Draco murmured sleepily.

Harry smiled down at the blond. This was the second time that day that he'd fallen to sleep on him but he really hoped Draco found his mate wherever Starrk and Grimmjow took them. The blond really needed someone of his own to call his.
