Summary: Draco has had a late night.
He looked down at the person snuggled so tightly into his side and smiled. He ran light fingers over the dark hair that covered the head nestled perfectly in his arm careful not to disturb. He tried to commit to memory the soft pink lips, pale cheeks and long dark eyelashes. He couldn't believe after all that he'd been through that he was here in this moment; that the fates had finally smiled kindly on him and given him all he ever wanted. A rush of emotion threatened to overwhelm him, but he was well practised in the art of not letting this be seen.
"Draco?" He raised tired eyes, turned sapphire through lack of sleep, and realised they were no longer alone.
"I thought you might be hungry, so I made you a little something."
Draco looked over to see his favourite mug filled to the brim with coffee and a willow pattern plate holding two slices of toast, spread liberally with -
"What's this?"
"Peanut butter. It's nice, honestly!" Harry sighed in despair.
"I know, just shh." Draco looked down at the tiny bundle as it shifted slightly.
"Asleep?" Harry asked cautiously.
Draco bit back a snide retort that still rose automatically to his lips and nodded. "Finally. I was up all night with her."
Harry smiled at the picture before him, the man he loved - the last remaining Malfoy no less - with their daughter cuddled in his arms. He didn't want to forget this moment ever.
