The third Saturday after Draco's revelation, Harry finds him standing in front of the full-length mirror in nothing but a towel. His skin's still damp from the shower. A frown mars his features.
"I'm going to get fat, Potter. Fat and ugly."
Biting back a smile, Harry rest his chin on Draco's shoulder before pulling him into his arms and splaying his hands across Draco's stomach. "You're not going to get fat, you're going to have a baby. Our baby." The knowledge awes Harry, fills him with unspeakable joy. Seeking Draco's gaze in the mirror, he whispers, "You'll be beautiful."

Harry wakes to the sound of Draco retching in the en suite. A part of him wants to roll over, sink back to sleep, but his concern is stronger and he topples out of bed.
It's been nearly three months and Draco spends so much time being sick, he's losing weight instead of gaining. The mediwitch assures them it's not unusual, that Draco and the baby are healthy enough, but Harry worries all the same.
Kneeling beside his boyfriend, who's slumped in front of the toilet, Harry brushes back blond fringe and realises just how much he loves this man.

The ceremony is small and private and still makes the front page of The Daily Prophet. And while Harry's fairly certain that Draco will eventually have words with the editor about both the unauthorized and rather blurry picture that accompanies the short, yet stunningly inaccurate article, right now they're both too blissful to care.
Their photographic selves can't seem to take their eyes off each other and Harry knows exactly how they feel. Harry finds it so remarkable Draco's promised to be his for the rest of their lives, he can't help but keep checking to make sure it's real.
