“What are you doing out here?” Harry asked.
Draco waited for Harry to join him on the balcony before gesturing to the full moon casting its soft glow over the fields and whispering, “I was admiring the view.”
“Beautiful,” Harry admitted, his arms wrapping around Draco. “But it’s cold. Wouldn’t you rather be inside, enjoying the festivities?”
“Are they still decorating the gingerbread house?” Draco asked.
Harry chuckled. “Yes. Teddy’s a perfectionist. Every speck of icing has to be in the correct place.”
“Mother must be loving that. They won’t miss us for a few minutes.”
“True.” Harry pulled Draco closer until his chin was resting on Draco’s shoulder. “They’ll come looking for us eventually, though.”
“Let them,” Draco said.
Harry’s hand settled protectively over Draco’s barely swollen belly. “Everything okay?” he asked.
“Naturally I’m--” Draco paused. “Do you ever wonder what he’ll be like? Our baby?”
“All the time.” Harry nibbled Draco’s earlobe, smiling as he felt a shiver wrack Draco’s body. “I bet he’ll be brilliant like you.”
“I hope he’s courageous, like you,” Draco murmured.
“Perhaps he’ll be both?”
Draco sighed. “Or he could be neither.”
“Luck of the draw,” Harry agreed. “Either way, he’ll be loved.”
