Admissions
“Believe it, Harry, when I say that child was possessed. His head was spinning round and everything.”
“Draco, you were dreaming again. That’s what I get for letting you watch The Exorcist.”
“It was so real, Harry. I swear.”
“It was a dream, Draco. The only thing possessing Hugo Weasley is his father’s huge appetite, and even you have to admit the poor tyke gets that honestly.”
“Weasley does have the appetite of a hippogriff, doesn’t he? Thank Circe Rose took after her mother.”
“Hugo seems to be the spitting image of Ron.”
“Yes, well, I’ll attempt not to hold it against him. He can’t help it if his father is a thoughtless oaf.”
“Ron’s a great bloke, Draco. He saved my life on several occasions.”
“Didn’t you once tell me his own wife said he had the emotional range of a teaspoon?”
“We were teenagers, Draco. Everyone’s changed since then.”
“Still, you can’t deny she said it, can you?”
“She also called you a cockroach at one point, love.”
“Potter. The husband thing? It means you’re supposed to be on my side.”
“I am.”
“You’d better be."
“Always.”
“I can’t believe I agreed to help you look after the two terrors tonight. Weasley owes us.”
“Rose isn’t a terror. And neither is Hugo.”
“Are you sure he isn’t possessed, Harry? His nappy smelled particularly evil last week.”
“Draco, it was just strained peas. And it came out with a good cleaning spell, right? Besides, I rather liked that you were willing to change nappies.”
“You are so strange, Potter. I just didn’t want Weasley after me for child neglect, that’s all.”
“You love them and you know it.”
“If I admit it, can I put this latest oddity in my dream journal and get back to sleep, please?”
“Of course.”
“Fine. I love them, all right?”
“I suspected as much.”
“Don’t read too much into it, Potter.”
“Draco, would you ever think about adoption?”
“If we did it together? Perhaps.”
“Really?”
“Really. But I’d need your help. I’m afraid I wouldn’t make the ideal parent. You know what my childhood was. Parenthood is intimidating.”
“Oh, Draco. I love you.”
“I love you, Harry.”
