Pairings: Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter
Characters: Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter, Scorpius Malfoy, Astoria Greengrass, Albus Severus Potter, James Sirius Potter, Lily Luna Potter, Teddy Lupin
Rating: E
Word Count: 45,672
Content/Warning(s): falling in love, mpreg, past infidelity, past Harry Potter/Ginny Weasley, past Astoria Greengrass/Draco Malfoy, minor Teddy Lupin/James Potter, minor character death, parent death, switching, angst, angst with a happy ending, parenthood, family dynamics, alcohol, grief/mourning, ageing, growing up, non-penetrative sex, frottage, getting together, getting back together, non-linear narrative, pov alternating
Summary/Prompt: Summary: When Scorpius Malfoy is saying goodbye to his dying mother, he doesn't expect to hear her confess, "Your father slept with another man and became pregnant with you." Grappling with his grief and his identity, Scorpius sets out to discover the identity of his other father, who it turns out has a lighting-shaped scar and no idea that Scorpius exists.
Prompt: On her deathbed, Astoria tells Scorpius that she's not his mother. Draco had carried him and gave birth to him and because of *whatever reason up to the author* Draco had to marry Astoria. They had a good marriage but were just friends and not partners. Now it's up to Scorpius to find his father's true happiness.
A/N: Context for content warnings: This fic contains mpreg, but not of an explicit variety. There is very little on-screen pregnancy, though there is one scene that contains vomiting associated with morning sickness. This fic contains past infidelity, wherein Harry and Draco cheated on their wives with each other. The affair is on-screen in flashbacks, but occurred decades ago. There's no Ginny or Astoria bashing.
Huge, enormous, gargantuan thanks to T and F for betaing and discussing this story at length, especially when I was in danger of drowning in feels and angst. It wouldn't exist without them. Thanks, too, to J, G, and K for helping me think through some character and plot points.
The title is from E.E. Cummings's "anyone lived in a pretty how town."
