Lucius Malfoy paced round his study, his expression that of stone. You could tell he was in deep thought by the expression on his face.

How was he supposed to explain his son what sex was? He was almost literally banging his head against a wall trying to figure out an answer.

"Perhaps it would be best if you would sleep on it, I doubt an answer will come to you by wearing away the persian rug." His wife Narcissa Malfoy said striding into the room.

"Perhaps." He semi-agreed warily.

He followed his wife to bed and fell asleep rather quickly, being that it was verily late.

He awoke feeling rejuvenated and ready to tackle the topic at hand, believing that breakfast that morning would be the perfect time.

They all sat around the marble table eating in silence as usual, but that wouldn't be the case this morning.

Lucius cleared his throat and all eyes were on him. "Son there is something your mother and I would like to discuss with you." Lucius said, trying to keep his tone even.

Draco looked up from buttering his toast, "Sure, whatever."

Lucius went on to describe how 'babies were made' and how protection was important. Draco looked a little shell shocked, "But that only happens with girls right?"

Lucius just raised an eyebrow, "Yes, have you not been paying attention?"

Draco just nodded looking nervously at the door than back again, "Ok whew. Then me and boyfriend have nothing to worry about."

"Who?" Lucius asked perplexed.

"My boyfriend." Draco responded calmly.

Lucius started choking on the eggs he was eating, managing to croak out "What?" But the doorbell rang.

"Oh! He's here!" Draco said getting up from the table and walking over and opening the door.

To Lucius's dismay Harry Potter was standing there, muggle clothes unruly hair and all.

"I'll have him back around 5." Harry said smiling and waving to Narcissa. Who just sat there calmly as if she knew about this all along.

"Do please." she said calmly.

When the door had shut and Lucius had managed to choke the eggs down the only thing he could thing to say was, "What the fuck?"

Narcissa all but rolled her eyes, "How could you not notice, it's been right in front of you all these years?"

Lucius awoke with a start.

It was all a dream.

Or was it?

He felt the need to make sure it wasn't and managed to find his way to his son's room in the dark.

"Draco! Draco" Lucius said rousing his son from sleep.

"Father what the...?" Draco responded clearly not expecting this.

Lucius responded, "...gay...Harry Potter?" Draco could't really make out what his father was saying.

"What?" Draco asked confused.

"...dating...Potter?" Lucius responded looking more and more worried.

"I can't-" Draco started but was interrupted by his father yelling, "ARE YOU GAY AND DATING HARRY POTTER?"

"NO! What the hell?" Draco asked confused.

"Nothing just don't get any ideas." Lucius said walking out of the room.

It only takes one pebble to start an avalanche...
