Walking into Department of Magical Law Enforcement two weeks later Draco sighs and crack his neck. It was going to be another long day at the office. He looks up when he hears Christi's laughter. He looks over and sees Christi and Hermione laughing and talking. Christi was tying her hair up into a bun. She was in black jeans and black top.

He up behind Christi and covers her eyes and chuckles.

"Guess who?" he chuckles.

"Is it my cute boyfriend?" she giggles.

He laughs and turns her around and songs her.

"What are you doing here dressed in all black?" he asks.

"For work," she tells him.

"What do you do here?"

"Hit Witch, the first Hit Witch so far," she says.

"Wow, that has to be intimidating in a job with all guys,"

"It is but hey one good thing is that I get a ton of respect as they're all nervous that if they piss me off enough I'll hex them or something or just sick you on them since they found out we're dating," she says smiling.

Draco just laughs and kisses her cheek.

"Just be careful. I really don't want to hear that you ended up in St. Mungo's," he requests.

"I'll try. I can't make any promises," she tells him.

"That's all I ask for," he said snogging her softly before her name is called from behind them.

"Duty calls," she says snogging him softly then pulls back and runs off to meet up with her partner and pulling her wand out of her pocket.

Once she was out of sight Hermione shifted Hugo to her other hip and looks at Draco.

"You better treat her right. She's liked you since we were eleven. She's been hurt in the past and she doesn't trust easily. It may seem like it but she doesn't. Don't give her a reason to suspect that you're doing anything to hurt her. She's my best friend and I just want her to be happy. But if you hurt her I will not be afraid to hex you into the next millennium," threatens Hermione.

"I can't bring myself to hurt her. I've had feelings for her since third year and have grown into love for her. I wanted to tell her so desperately after the war and we went back for our seventh year but I couldn't as I had the arranged marriage to Astoria. But now that we're divorced I'm not letting Christi slip through my grasp like I did third year. I'm jumping at the chance to have something with her," Draco says.

Hermione nods and heads out.

₤Lunch₤

Harry and Draco were just going out to grab lunch when the head of the Hit Wizard's comes over and grabs Harry.

"Harry you come with me now to St. Mungo's Christi was hurt. The Stupefy curse was used on her and she was knocked unconscious but still hasn't come to and that was over an hour ago," he informs.

"Okay. Draco come on, I know for a fact when she comes to she'll want to see you," Harry tells him.

He nods and they all run out of there then apperate over to St. Mungo's.

Running inside they're directed over to where Christi was.

Skidding to a stop right outside Christi's room. He goes in and grasps her hand in his lacing their fingers together.

"What other injuries did she sustain?" Harry asks.

"Major concussion, three fractured ribs, a gash on her forehead and sprained ankle," her partner, Alex, tells Harry.

"That sounds like she got into hand on hand combat with the other person," comments Draco.

"She did. She did some serious damage to the guy we had to go after. Who know big things came in small packages!" Alex says.

"We did. She got into plenty of fights in school," Harry chuckles.

"Damn, remind me to never piss her off," Alex chuckles.

"Don't piss me off," Christi groans.

"Hey babe, how are you feeling?" Draco asks.

"Like I got the snot beat out of me," she groans.

"Well you kinda did," Harry laughs.

"Shut up. Did we at least catch him?" Christi asks Alex.

"He got away. I was more concerned with you after he hit you with the Stupefy curse. You weren't moving so it worried me. You're my first priority," Alex tells her.

"You could have hit him with the jelly legs curse then bound him and took care of me," she snorts.

"Yea well I didn't want Draco hexing me!" he chuckles.

The small group was chatting when the Healer taking care of Christi comes in to check on her for the third time in an hour.

"How are you feeling Christi?"

"Okay, when can I get released?"

"Tomorrow afternoon. We just want to make sure all the potions we gave you earlier are doing what they're supposed to," he informs her.

She sighs and nods.

"Hey I'll bring the little man in later tonight to see you," promises Draco.

"Okay, I haven't seen him in a week anyway. It would be nice to see him."

"Yea well Astoria doesn't want him around you and is trying to fight it but with the legal team that works for my family she doesn't have a chance," he says.

"What is her problem with me anyway? I've done nothing to her! Well nothing that I can remember," she smirks.

"Maybe I was from that duel you two got into the hallway after D.A.D.A. sixth year and she threw that unforgivable curse at you and you blocked it and it bounced back at her," Harry says.

"I think that was it. She never liked me after that," Christi laughs.

Draco and Harry laugh hysterically at that when Lucius and Narcissa walk in with Scorpius.

"Draco are you okay?" Lucius asks.

"Yea why do ask?"

"We went down to the Ministry to meet up with you for lunch but they told us you were here," Narcissa informed her son.

"I'm fine; Christi was just hurt on a mission today. I came down to be with her," he says.

"CHRISTI!" Scorp cries happily squirming in his grandmothers arms to be put down.

"Stop squirming Scorpius Hyperion," she reprimands him.

She couldn't believe that her son would actually go near a mudblood and pursue any type of relationship with one. She wasn't about to let her grandson be associated with a mudblood if she could help it.

Draco snorts and goes over and takes his son.

"I would appreciate it if you left. If you can't accept the fact that I am never going back to Astoria and that I'm with the girl who've I've loved since I was thirteen then leave. For once, I am as happy as I was on the day that Scorpius was born. I am happy with Christi and I'm not giving that up. I don't care about blood-status. It doesn't matter to me. Just as long as the three of us are happy is all that matters," growls Draco.

"Draco!" his mother cries.

"Leave! Christi doesn't need this! Now leave!" Draco says.

"Fine, but don't expect anything out of us," Lucius informs him.

"I stopped that when you forced me to marry," he snorts.

They leave and Christi looks at Draco.

"You didn't have to do that," she tells him.

"Actually I did. They've been trying to get me back with Astoria and I'm dead set against it. She left a month after she had Scorp claiming that she ruined her life and rubbish like that and besides that was bound to happen," he tells her setting the now sleeping Scorpius next to her.

She smiles and holds him close.

"You look good with a kid," he compliments her smiling.

"Thanks. You make a fantastic dad no matter what anyone says," she tells him.

"You're welcome and thanks," he said as his family's lawyer came in.

"Hey Draco," he says.

"Hey Andy what's up?" he asks.

"I hate to do this but I have to. You've been served. Astoria is fighting you for custody. She doesn't want her son around a mud-blood," Andy says sneering mudblood at Christi.

"Daddy?" Scorpius asks sleepy.

"What's up buddy?"

"What's a mud-blood?" asks Scorpius.

Before Draco could answer Christi says, "It's someone who was born to non magical parents, like me. But calling someone that is a very mean and hurtful. So don't call anyone that okay?"

"You need to show up at court this weekend with Scorpius Draco or you will be arrested for contempt," Andy informs him.

"Fine, I'll be there. Now can you just leave us alone?" he says knowing that if he got arrested he wouldn't be able to see Scorpius what's so ever but if he just showed up he'd have a chance to see him.

§That weekend§

Christi was helping get Scorpius ready for the court date while Draco got ready. She was currently tying his tie around his neck. When she finishes tying his forest green and sliver tie she uses some hair gel to keep his hair out of his face.

"You know buddy you should cut your hair. It's just slightly too long," she says.

"Can you take me to get it cut?" he asks.

"Of course I can," she tells him.

"Yay!" he squeals as Draco comes in.

"What's got the little man excited?"

"He's going to let me take him to get his hair cut. He even asked me if I could."

"Oh I see how it is!" Draco chuckles.

Christi giggles as she finishes getting Scorpius ready.

"Alright he's all set to go." She said standing up and straightening out her skirt and blouse. Her hair was pulled back into a neat ponytail.

They head out and over to the courts.

When they get there Astoria growls and approaches them.

"If you stop seeing that mud-blood whore I'll drop all of this." Astoria says.

"Astoria back off. You're nothing but self centered and worried about blood status! Didn't you learn anything from war? Blood status doesn't matter! All that matters is the person. You should judge the person for what's on the inside and their character and that's what everyone learned including me." He growls.

"Blood traitor." She spits at him then storms off.

Draco growls and goes to grab his wand but Christi stops him.

"Stop. She's not worth it." Christi says.

He nods and sighs.

"I can't lose him."

"I know and you're not. You're the perfect father." She says.

He smiles and nods snogging her softly.

They head inside and they sit down and Scorpius climbs into Christi's lap and lies his head on her chest sleepy as they had to get up early and he was still sleepy.

"When he likes you he does that." Draco whispers.

She smiles and runs her fingers lightly through Scorpius' hair.

The trial starts and they sit there listening and then break so that it can be discussed of who gets custody of Scorpius.

"I'm terrified." Admits Draco.

"I know." Christi says holding Scorpius close to her.

"Draco they're back." Andy comes out and tells them.

They nod and head inside.

"After much discussion we've come to the agreement that Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy will be placed with his….."
