Narrator's pov:

Draco is laying on his back while holding Elle tightly in his arms, he already woke up at four am and couldn't fall back asleep so he just decided to cuddle his wife. Her head was leaning on his chest while her hand was on his stomach, she had her leg over his waist while his arm was around her shoulders. He gave her kisses, on the forehead, here and there and just stared into the ceiling. He looked at the muggle clock, it told six am, he sighed and looked back at Elle, he stroked her head with his other hand. He laid on his side while his arm stayed around her shoulders, he pulled her closer to himself and pressed her head against his chest, she instantly hugged him back while she was still asleep. He hummed her a song, he does that quite often but just when she's asleep.

He heard doors open, which made him look around the room, Scorpius was poking his head from behind the doors from his bedroom. Draco chuckled as the little boy whispered;

"Papa... Cuddow" he said

Draco chuckled again, got out of bed and walked to his son. The little boy looked up at him, Draco gave him a warm smile, kneeled before him, lifted him and took him to bed, next to Elle.

"Stowie, twee botews" whispered Scorpius

"Okay, but I'll have to be very quiet so we won't wake momma up" explained Draco

Scorpius put his forefinger over his little, rosy lips.

"Shhh"

TW: This tale isn't mine :)

"Three brothers, travelling along a lonely, winding road at twilight reached a deep treacherous river where anyone who attempted to swim or wade would drown. Learned in the magical arts, the brothers conjured a bridge with their wands and proceed to cross. Halfway through the bridge, a hooded figure stood before them. The figure was the enraged spirit of Death, cheated of his due. Death cunningly pretended to congratulate them and proceeds to award them with gifts of their own choosing. The eldest brother, a combative man, asked for a wand more powerful than any in existence. Death granted his wish by fashioning the Elder Wand from a branch of a nearby elder tree standing on the banks of the river. The second brother, an arrogant man, chose to further humiliate Death and asked for the power to recall the deceased from the grave. Death granted his wish by crafting the Resurrection Stone from a stone picked from the riverbank. The third and youngest brother, who was the most humble and wise, did not trust Death and asked for something to enable him to go forth without Death being able to follow. A reluctant Death, most unwillingly, handed over a part of his own Invisibility. The three brothers took their prizes and soon went on their separate ways. The eldest brother travelled to a village where a wizard whom he had quarrelled lived. He sought out a duel and fought the wizard using the wand, instantly killing the latter. Leaving his enemy dead upon the floor, the eldest brother walked to an inn not far from the duelling site and spent the night there. Taken by his conscience and lust of the Elder Wand's power, the eldest brother boasted of this wand gifted by Death and his own invincibility. That very night, a murderous wizard killed the eldest brother. The unknown murderous wizard crept to the inn as the eldest brother slept, drunk from wine. The wizard slit the oldest brother's throat for good measure and stole the wand. That was when Death took the first brother. The second brother returned to his home where he lived alone. Turning the stone thrice in his hand the figure of the girl he had once hoped to marry, before her untimely death, appeared at once before him, much to his delight. Yet she was sad and cold, separated from him as by a veil. Though she had returned to the mortal world, she did not truly belong there and suffered. Finally, the second brother, driven mad with hopeless longing, committed suicide by hanging from his house' balcony so as truly to join her. That was when Death took the second brother for his own. Death searched for the youngest brother as years passed but never succeeded. It was only when the third brother reached a great age, he took off the Cloak of Invisibility and gave it to his son. Greeting Death as an old friend, they departed this life as equals," whispered Draco
