The next morning, Harry wakes up and looks around expecting to see the wooden walls and crib around him. Instead, he notices that he's in an actual bedroom. Turning his head, he sees the boy from the previous night sleeping next to him. So it wasn't a dream?
The bedroom door opens and in walks a man with black hair that Harry also recognised from last night. This was the nice man that brought him here. The man that saved him from his aunt and uncle.
Severus notices that Harry is awake and smiles at him. He walks over quietly, since he saw Draco still sleeping. He carefully sits down next to Harry, who pulls the covers up to his mouth.
"You sleep well, Harry?". He nods shyly, "That's good. Would you like to have some breakfast?".
Harry perks up to answer, but then frowns, "Not allowed".
Severus looks confused, "You're not allowed to eat?". Harry shakes his head and Severus leans down a little, "Who told you that?".
He whispers, "...uncle...".
Severus sighs, "Of course he did". He places his hand on his head, "It's alright, Harry. You're uncle's not here. You can eat whatever you want, whenever you want".
He looks out from the blankets, "Really?".
"Mhm. Why don't we wake up Draco and go have something to eat?".
He looks at the boy next to him and nods, "Ok".
Severus walks over to the other side of the bed and gently picks Draco up. He's learnt the hard way that this is the best way to wake him up. He eventually got him awake and took both boys downstairs. Harry was taking in the new environment as he was being carried to the dining room.
Lucius and Narcissa were already awake and eating breakfast, when they noticed Severus walking in with a curious Harry and half-asleep Draco. Severus places Draco in his father's lap and sits down next to them with Harry in his.
Severus leans down, "What would you like, Harry?".
Looking at the variety of food, Harry starts pointing at things he wants and Severus starts piling the food onto a plate.
As they were eating, Lucius whispers to Severus, "Do you think now is a good time to ask him?".
He looks down at the boy, eating contently, and nods, "He's a lot calmer now".
He nods back and adjusts Draco in his lap, "Harry?". The boy looks up, "There's something I want to ask you, is that ok?". He nods, "Wonderful. Well, I was wondering how you feel about being adopted by us?".
Harry turns his head to the side in confusion, "Adopted?".
Narcissa interjects, "What he means, my dear, is that we want you to be our son".
Draco hears this and jumps in his father's lap, "I get a brother? Yay!".
Lucius smiles and places his hand on Draco's head, "Hold on, Draco. It's up to Harry".
Said boy looks around the table at the family. They actually want him? The other boy, who he knows now is named Draco looked so happy that he might become his brother. He looks up at the nice man who saved him, who smiles and nods.
He turns back to the family and nods, "I want a family".
Lucius smiles and nods, "Of course, my boy".
Draco smiles wide, "Yay! I have a brother!".
He gets down from Lucius' lap and happily runs over to Severus, trying to climb onto him. Severus smiles and picks him up and places him on his other leg, next to Harry. Draco hugs Harry, who hugs him back, happy for the first time.
Severus looks down and smiles at the new brothers.
He turns to Lucius, "Later today, we should head to Gringotts and formally get the blood adoption done".
He nods, "I agree. Let's give him some time. I think Draco is going to want to spend a lot of time with his new brother".
Severus laughs, "Yes, well, he finally got what he's been asking for".
