Harry bought a bottle of 1811 Château d’Yquem for white wine and a bottle of 1945 Chateau Mouton-Rothschild Jeroboam for red wine. he couldn't decided which one to bring so brought both bottles hoping Draco wouldn't mind. Harry just hoped Draco would notice the name of the wines or the blond might hit him for bringing too expensive wine as gifts. But the again, Harry didn't care.
He apparated outside Malfoy Manor and was ushered by an elf to the dining room. Harry was amazed on how smaller the Manor became. It seemed bigger when he was younger. Then he remembered, the last time he was there was when he was a student in his seventh year. It had been far too long and he already left old memories to move on.
Truth be told, Harry was nervous. He was going to have dinner with Draco and Narcissa. And maybe the children as well. He wondered if Astoria was going to be there was well. He hoped that the evening would start and and end good.

Draco didn't know what to wear. Did he go with muggle clothes? Did he go with wizard robes? Wizard dress robes? What? There were so many options for him to chose from that he hated it. In the end he decided to go the muggle fancy way. But not... completely fancy. He had seen them wear suits or whatever. Draco didn't do that. Instead he wore a pair of black skinny jeans, a white button down dress up shirt with a plain black tie. Draco thought he looked nice, and so did all of the house elves he asked for options from.
When he was informed Harry had arrived, he told the house elf to go tell his mother he was here and made his way down to the dining room. He found Harry standing there, looking as adorable as ever. "Well hi there." Draco said with a laugh before walking over to him and putting his hand on Harry's hip for a second while he leaned forward and kissed him. "Excited? Nervous?"

Harry was glad that Draco had come down. Seeing the blond man just made Harry smile wider. He wanted to stretch out Draco's welcome kiss but didn't want to be caught by anyone. "Excited.. Nervous... Dizzy..." Harry told him as he gave Draco the basket with two bottle of wines in it.
"Here, I brought this. I hope it's alright. I didn't know which one to bring so I brought both." Harry said as he blushed a little. It were just two of the hundreds of wine bottles Harry owned and kept at the basement of his new place. "I brought a bottle of 1811 Château d’Yquem for white wine and a bottle of 1945 Chateau Mouton-Rothschild Jeroboam for red wine. I hope you don't mind" harry said.
"I hope I look alright. You on the other hand, look delicious and I am hungry." Harry teased as he kissed Draco quickly. "Will you children be joining us or just your mother?" Harry asked as he pulled away. He was now nervous once again.

Draco took the basket of wine without much thought. That was until Harry had said the names of the wine. He had to look down in the basket for conformation before looking up at his boyfriend in disbelief. "You did not bring two of the most expensive wines in the world." Draco asked before shaking his head and hitting Harry on the side of his head. It wasn't hard, but Draco was sure it would do that trick. "You didn't have to bring anything at all... and you chose to bring the most expensive wine... what am I going to do with you." Draco said with a sigh, but failed at trying to keep the smile off his face.
"It took me forever to figure out what to wear. I decided on muggle clothes. I actually do like them. Which surprises me." Draco laughed. "It'll just be mother tonight. The children are being stubborn. You'll meet them soon enough, Harry. I promise." Draco told his boyfriend before leaning in for a deeper kiss. He was going to wait, but simply couldn't anymore. He heard something, and he thought it might be his mother coming down the hall, but he didn't honestly care at this point. He just wanted to kiss Harry.

It had been a while since Narcissa had seen her son, Draco, like this. Recently he had been gloomy and, well, Draco. But over the past few weeks he had been opening up and was, at times, cheerful enough to thoroughly enjoy having him in the house. It was a welcome change.
At the start, Narcissa hadn't a clue why this drastic change of persona in his son. But... after a while... she began to get her suspicions. She thought he'd found a new love interest which, in a way, was true. She just didn't expect it to be Harry Potter. Not like Draco had told her yet though. But a mother's sixth sense was hardly ever wrong. Narcissa knew better than to mention anything though. She would be patient and wait for Draco to come to her about it.
Seeing Draco fuss over what he'd be wearing tonight made her feel a pleased buzz in her chest. It was nice to see him like this again. Alive. Not moping. Astoria had been a mistake and she knew this, regretting the decision (which had been more Lucius' than her's). It wasn't like she didn't like Astoria. It had just been something that shouldn't of happened. Narcissa was glad her boy was being offered another chance to be happy and comfortable with someone he truely liked. Even if it was Potter.
An elf came to tell her that their guest had arrived and she paused ten minutes to check her hair and minimal make-up she was wearing. It was a bit on purpose. She wanted the boys to say hello properly without her interrupting. After a few moments, Narcissa straightened out her dinner clothes and headed for the stairs.
Hearing low mutters, laughter and (Narcissa blushed) kissing noises, she guessed that she hadn't given them quite enough time. Cissa stood at the bottom of the staircase, arms crossed yet with a knowing smile. "Evening, Mr. Potter." Narcissa said delicately. "I thought Draco was bad when he was a teenager... are you both going to put me through all that again?"

"Owh... Well, I don't really know how much they are. I just choce them from the other hundred bottles lying around the basement. Remind me to show them to you next time we're at home." Harry said as he gave Draco a quick kiss but then it proved to be a wrong moved.
Narcissa had arrived. Harry wanted to hold Draco longer but he had to behave now. He quickly pulled away and turned to Draco's mother. This was where Harry's nerves were tested. "Good evening to you too, Mrs. Malfoy. I hope that I am not being a bother." Harry said. His hands were now clammy and cold. Damn, another hurdle Harry had to face. But Harrry was going to try since it was for Draco. He'd do anything.
"I assure you that we shall not have a repeat of what you just saw, Mrs. Malfoy." Harry reassured her whilst he was trying to reassure himself that everything will be fine.

Draco just smiled as his mother walked in on him and Harry kissing. He wouldn't be surprised if his mother thought they were already together, so he wasn't embarrassed or nervous that she found out that way. Instead Draco simply grabbed Harry's hand in his own. Intertwining their fingers. "Mother... you know Harry, of course. But I don't think you've met him as my boyfriend before." Draco said, giving Harry's hand a gentle squeeze.
Draco was perfectly at ease. He would always be when he was with Harry. He had a calming effect on Draco that he loved to death. "No promises about no more kissing, Mum. I am a man, after all." Draco chuckled and looked next to him at Harry. "Relax a bit, Harry." He smirked at his boyfriend before turning back to his mom. "How about we sit down and start eating? I'm staving."

Well wasn't that just precious? Harry thought she was being serious about this. Cissa shook her head slowly with a warm smile that grew into a light, entertained chuckle. "It is perfectly fine Harry. I honestly don't mind. I'm actually... glad." She said with a sigh, the smile never leaving her lipsticked lips for a single moment. Although her suspicions had been pretty much confirmed, Draco had decided to make it totally official by announcing it to her. "I'm pleased for you both. I'm not going to lie... I suspected that Draco's new zest in life was because of a special someone. I am certainly surprised that its you, Harry. But... pleasantly surprised. Now come... we can continue this chatter in the dining room." Narcissa gestured towards the large room where dinner was awaiting them before turning on heel and almost gliding over in her billowy robe.
"As long as I catch you only kissing, Draco. I am getting on in years to be chasing after you like I did when you were younger." Narcissa said with a raised eyebrow. "I know you men have your 'needs' but, please, not in front of the children. I'm not sure how they'll take your new partner just yet. Its change. Not everyone takes it the same way. Now, sit, both of you." The well-dressed lady took a seat by the table offered to her by a house elf, she delicately took a napkin and placed it over her lap.

Harry wanted to laugh as he witness Narcissa calmly accepting him as Draco's boyfriend. Then he nodded, "Don't worry. You have my word that you won't here any news of me being with anyone else aside from Draco." Harry reassured her. Harry held Draco close to him and smiled. "Thank you, Mrs. Malfoy. I do promise to keep Draco happy for the rest of our lives, if he'll have me." he added.
He followed Narcissa and Draco into the dinning room and sat next to him. He wasn't to shocked that Draco prepared for dinner. He just smiled. "I'm glad to see you looking well, Mrs. Malfoy. I still haven't properly thanked you for saving me many years ago." Harry gave her a sincere smile.
"Draco, I hoped that you children will join us for dinner. Your mother has a point. They will have to know who I am and what role I have in your life." Harry said with concerned. He didn't want to make Draco think about anything but Narcissa had a point And Harry couldn't ignore it.

Draco was glad his mom was taking it so well, but he had been pretty sure she would. It was why he told her in the first place, really. If Draco had thought she was going to take it badly, then he would have just hidden it from her, which would have probably made her even more mad, honestly. But oh well. That didn't happen.
"Yeah yeah, Mum. We'll keep the PDA to a minimum for you." Draco said with a laugh and smirk her way. He found it strange how comfortable he was with both his mother and Harry. That was until they mentioned his kids. "Yeah... they were busy or something. They'll find out some other time." Draco said offhandedly, shrugging slightly walking with Harry into the dinning room. He wanted Scor and Dria to find out, but he was afraid of what they were going to think. So he would rather they just... didn't. [/blockqutoe]
