        The Teddy Bear Tantrum

     "Draco, I'm hooome!"Harry walked into their bedroom.Draco was frantically moving things around, a worried expression staining his face.
"Dragon, what's wrong?"Harry walked over and sat on the edge of their bed.
     "Luca's bear...."Draco muttered the end, leaving Harry in a perplexed state."I'm sorry, could you repeat that?"Draco muttered again and Harry sighed."One more-"
"LUCA'S TEDDY BEAR IS MISSING!!!"
Harry blinked.It took a minute before it settled in."The fluffy one he got from my mother?!"Draco reluctantly nodded and Harry stood, running his hands through his hair."Has he noticed yet?"Draco shakes his head.
"He's been playing with his brothers, he hasn't noticed a thing...."
     Harry looks at the time."It'll be nap time in a few hours....Where did you see it with him last?"Draco falls silent, going into deep thought."....He had it at the park.That's the last time I saw it."Harry nods and grabs his coat.
"Harry, you don't have to do this, we can call Lily and ask where she got it from."Harry shakes his head in disagreement."He may be four, but he'll notice it's not the same.My mum charmed it.He'll know."And with that Harry walked out the door.
       Luca walked into his fathers' room, face stained with tears.
"Da...Daddy, my bear....I can't find him..."He wiped his face with his sleeves.Draco came over, picking him up, and sitting on the bed with him in is lap."Papa will bring him home, so hush..."Draco hugged Luca, trying not to cry himself.Luca was the baby.Not only was he the baby, but he almost didn't make it.
     His umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck and even after he was cut free, he had gotten sick and had to stay in the infirmary.He was barely breathing, clinging on to life. His immune system was weak, even though as a baby it shouldn't be that way.Draco couldn't help but think of all the sleepless nights, wondering when he could bring him home.
   He couldn't help but remember the other children asking where their baby brother was when Draco came home and he didn't.He couldn't help but remember watching Harry cry over the child on the brink of death.
He couldn't help but remember, Lily walking into the infirmary and handing Draco the bear Luca holds so dear now.
    Draco snapped out of it, noticing he had tears running down his cheeks, when he heard the front door open.
Harry ran in, out of breath, the bear in his hand.Draco smiled and wiped his face."Hey, Luca, look who Papa brought home..."Luca sniffled and turned around.As soon as he saw the bear his eyes widened and he almost fell climbing out of Draco's lap.Harry hand him the bear and he hugged it.
     "Gummy, you're back!"he squeezed the bear tight.Harry pick him up. "It's naptime for you and Gummy..."
Just as Harry turned to leave, something tugged at his shirt.
Harry turned and saw Draco holding on."Give him to me..."His voice cracked a bit and Harry handed him over to Draco.Draco laid down, laying Luca on his chest, hugging him.Harry took off his coat and shoes before climbing into the bed next to them.
     "Night, Papa.Night, Daddy.I...Love...you..."He drifted off.
"We love you too..."Draco kissed the top of his head, rubbing his back.
"We'll always love you..."Harry said, kissing his head and cuddling the two.

    I think I'll just give Luca another chapter, but I don't feel like typing anymore.I think I'll do his complicated birth next or him being sick.I might even do how worried his siblings and Dads are when he goes off to Hogwarts, seeing as he stays sick.Anywho, thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed.I almost cried typing this one.But I didn't need a heart anyway!
