Harry put down the Daily Prophet a little harder than necessary, letting out a long, heavy sigh as he did so. It had been months since his "affair" with Draco came to light, and yet, the Prophet was still going on about it. Honestly, they spent more time on Harry and his love life then they did when Ginny cheated on him. Harry supposed that it was because that the Wizarding World still worshiped the ground he walked on, though it had been twenty some years since he "saved them all from a terrible future". Harry was just doing what anyone would have done in his shoes, that didn't make him special like everyone wanted to believe. Regardless, Harry was tired of all the wizarding magazines coming to him and being involved with his business. Couldn't a man get some peace for once?
"Uh oh, I know that sigh."
Draco said, coming up behind Harry with a cup of coffee in his hands. Harry glanced up at the other man as he passed, sitting across from him and bringing the cup to his lips and taking a long sip. Harry immediately began to soften at the sight of his lover and he gave a small, frustrated smile. "They're at it again." "Harry, we knew they would as soon as we released it."
"That's the thing though! We didn't even release it!"
Draco rolled his beautiful, stormy grey eyes and let out a quiet huff. "Harry, we were caught making out at a park near Hogsmeade. We released it." Harry couldn't hold back the laughter that followed Draco's serious statement, ignoring the pink blush painting over his nose and neck; it was true, once the two were official, they couldn't keep away from each other. Harry only regretted the fact that Ron and Hermione had to find out by the paper; that howler was one that neither Harry nor Draco appreciated very much, but Harry could understand why he got one, at least. Draco, however, was not as understanding and had a large row with Ron, screaming about how Ron's howler had gotten him into a bit of trouble at his job. Ron had yelled back that he was snogging his best friend and didn't even ask Ron for his permission, to which Draco responded with "He's a grown arse man Ronald Weasley, I am a grown arse man and I will snog who I please, whenever I please, and I needn't ask for permission!" and Ron, so shocked by Draco using his first name, couldn't even dignify this statement with a response. Hermione chose this time to intervene (hadn't doing so before this because it was quite humorous) by hitting Ron (albeit softly, in Draco's opinion, and a little too hard in Harry's) over the head, telling him that he was being a git for getting in the way of Harry's happiness. Ron had the decency to look guilty, and instead took Draco's hand and giving it two, firm shakes before immediately letting go, mumbling about how he was going to need lots of fire whiskey to get over this.
Harry was secretly happy (and turned on, but he would never admit that out loud) that Draco stood up for him and their relationship, and that night was very... pleasant between the two of them.
Draco let out a quiet laugh and slid his hand closer to Harry's, taking it in his gently, running his thumb over Harry's palm. "I'm just glad the kids took it well." Draco murmured, his eyes locked on their laced fingers. Harry smiled as well, remembering: The two had as much sense as to let their children know what went down almost as soon as it went down, instead of letting them find out through the papers, because that would have been much much worse. Each child had a different way of coming to terms with it: Lilly was, unsurprisingly accepting; she said that all she wanted was her dad's happiness, and as long as Draco brought him that, she was okay with it. (She DID mention unverbally that if Draco was to do anything to hurt her father, there would be consequences (Draco was a tad bit scared of what that might be and promised repeatedly that he wouldn't hurt Harry, intentionally or otherwise)) Albus and Scorpius gave each other a look as though they were having a mental conversation before nodding, some what hesitantly. Harry and Draco believed that they knew the reason why, but wanted to wait until their sons came to them first before saying anything; after all, it was never cool to be outed against your will. Teddy took it as well as Lilly, in fact, almost better than her; he took every chance he could to tease the two older men, mainly by morphing himself into what could have been their child; small, blonde hair, green eyes, and light skinned. Harry never failed to blush at seeing him like that and Draco would just harass Teddy until he morphed back to his "normal" self, including whatever color of hair he decided to have at the moment. James, however, was proving to be the child who was taking this the hardest; maybe it was because he still had those ideas in his head that he talked to Harry about a few months ago, or maybe it was something else, but for whatever reason, James Sirius Potter was taking the longest to come to terms with it all.
And then there was Ginny. Frankly, Harry was surprised at how Ginny was reacting to everything; he supposed that it was really her fault for all the magazines flocking to his door every second, but still: She left HIM for another man, and Harry found Draco after he was already divorced! Those papers saying that Harry was gay and had a steamy love affair with Draco before leaving his wife to marry him on some secret beach was just too funny.
"Harry, you're thinking too hard again; careful, I don't want that brain of yours to give out."
Harry laughed before pulling Draco closer, settling him on his lap. Harry rested his hands just above Draco's are, and Draco wrapped his arms around Harry's neck, settling his legs on either side of Harry's waist. "The only brain giving out will not be mine, Draco." Harry whispered, blowing cool into Draco's ear, making him shiver slightly. "Merry Christmas Harry, I'm gonna give you your gift now."
"Draco, Christmas was three days ago. Remember? That's why the kids aren't with us? Cuz they're with Ginny?"
Draco rolled his eyes again before pressing his lips to Harry's.
"Shut up, git."
