It started with a break in

Part 1

"You're in for a night of pain then. That boy is your mate. Now that you've found him early,you're gonna go through your inheritance early." Lucius explained. They already had the chat about Draco being a vela so it wasn't any new information for Draco. Draco nodded, a bit shocked.

"How are we gonna explain that to him?" Draco asked.

"Let's take him to the livingroom, give him some food and water and explain it to him then. Okay?" Lucius suggested. Draco nodded so they went back into the study to see Severus holding Tyler against the wall by his throat. Tyler had tears streaming from his eyes and he was clawing at Severus' hand.

"Dad let go of him!" Draco shouted, prying his dad's hands off Tyler before pulling the shorter teen into a tight hug. Tyler clung to Draco so tight that his knuckles were turning white as he cried into the blonde's chest.

"Shh, shh, it's okay. I got you. Shh, calm down. It's okay." Draco murmured into Tyler's ear as he smoothed his black curls. Tyler calmed down until he was just a mess of sniffles but he still refused to let go of the blonde. Lucius walked over to the pair after calming down his fuming husband and explained the situation to him. Lucius put his hand on Tyler's back but quickly retracted it when Tyler violently flinched.

"Sorry." Lucius apologised. Tyler nodded and turned his face a bit so he could see Lucius but was still cuddled into Draco.

"How about we get you something to eat and drink yeah? And then we have a few things to discuss with you." Lucius told him. Tyler visibly stiffened and hugged Draco tighter.

"It's okay. I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay cuddling you if you want." Draco told him, rubbing his back a bit and fiddling with the ends of his long curls. Tyler nodded and turned his face back into Draco's chest. Draco chuckled and began wrapping Tyler's curls around his fingers, electing a giggle from the smaller boy. Draco smiled, not realising Malfoy sr. standing by the door with a smile on his face.

"Dragon, come on. I got the house elves to make Tyler some food." Draco nodded and pulled away from the hug, instead opting to grab a hold of Tyler's small hand and lead him out the room. They walked into the livingroom and Severus instantly glared at Tyler. Tyler hung his head while Draco just glared back at his dad. Draco sat down on the couch opposite his dad and pulled Tyler down next to him, keeping a tight hold of the boy's hand. Tyler leaned his head against Draco's shoulder and closed his eyes, absolutely exhausted.

"Don't fall asleep just yet hun. You still need to eat something." Draco told him. Tyler grumbled but opened his eyes none the less. Lucius walked into the room with a plate of sandwiches, a bowel of cut up fruits and a glass of water on a tray. He set the food on the coffee table infront of Tyler, who looked at the food hungrily.

"Go on. Eat up love. It's all yours." Draco told him. Tyler looked at him shocked but when he saw the encouraging smile, he dug in, saying a quick thank you in Lucius' direction, thinking he was the one who prepared it all. Tyler was shoving food into his mouth as if he hadn't eaten for months.

"Tyler, when was the last time you ate?" Lucius asked. Tyler stopped shoving food into his mouth and swallowed what he already had before looking up at Lucius.

"I, I dunno. Long time." Tyler told him. Lucius nodded and didn't say anything more so Tyler took that as an invitation to continue eating and took a large bite from another sandwich. They noticed that Tyler seemed to be avoiding the tomato sandwiches and when he accidentally ate one, his face scrunched up a bit in disgust.

"You don't have to eat the tomato ones if you don't like them." Draco told him gently.

"But I don't want good food to go to waste." Tyler told him.
