Chapter 1The arrival of the babies.
A month later Hermione awoke feeling thirsty. She got up to get a glass of water and as she did so she felt a twinge of pain in her stomach. At first she ignored it but 5 minutes later she felt it again. "Draco", she called, "mmmph", came Draco's reply. ""Draco", she called again, "the babies are coming". Draco leapt out of bed as fast as he could and apparated downstairs. "We need to go now darling", said Hermione in a panicky voice. "Harry, Ron, Ginny, Luna, I must tell them I want them there and Mum and Dad". "Don't worry 'Mione ", and with a soft pop Draco apparated to the burrow. Mrs Weasley was busy in the kitchen cooking breakfast when Draco appeared looking flustered. "Hello dear", said Molly "are you ok ?", "I'm fine but Hermione's gone into labour she wants Harry, Ron, and Ginny, I'm taking her to the Muggle hospital". "Ron and Harry are still in bed and Ginny's in the bath, I'll get them for you and we'll be there in 15 minutes. With another pop Draco disapparated and drove Hermione to the Muggle Hospital.
Meanwhile Mrs Weasley was trying to get Ginny out of the bath, and Harry and Ron out of bed. "Ginny – hurry up we have a baby on the way", she called. Ginny jumped out of the bath and quickly dried herself and pulled on Muggle jeans, a blouse, and shoes. Meanwhile Mrs Weasley was still trying to get Harry and Ron up, "Harry, Ron time to get up dears" she called "ahh", sighed Harry stretching and sitting up in bed. Ron just rolled over and went back to sleep, "come on Ron", said Molly, "get lost Mum it's too early", said Ron. "RONALD WEASLEY" yelled Molly angrily "DO NOT TALK TO ME LIKE THAT AGAIN, WE HAVE TO GET UP NOW HERMIONE IS HAVING THE BABIES NOW AND SHE WANTS YOU THERE, WE HAVE TO GO THIS INSTANT". "OH MY GOD", yelled Harry and Ron together, they jumped up and magicked their clothes on. Within a minute Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Mrs Weasley were ready to go, not wanting to apparate to the hospital they walked into the village and then Harry phoned for a taxi to take them to the hospital. When they arrived Harry said to the receptionist "Hermione Malfoy please", "Labour Ward follow the signs" replied the receptionist. Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Molly walked down a long corridor and eventually found a door marked 'Labour Ward', they pushed the door open and entered the ward. They found a distressed Hermione and a nervous Draco, "Harry, Ron, Ginny, Molly", cried Hermione, "these babies will be here soon", and she gave a cry of pain. "My parents need to be told", "I'll go" said Ginny, "and after all Draco should be here, and Harry and Ron have known you longer than I have".
Ginny left the ward and found the Hospital exit quickly. She jumped into a taxi and said "number 19. East Lovelock Road please, as fast as you can". 5 minutes later they arrived at Jayne and Robert Granger's, "wait here please", said Ginny. She raced to the Grangers front door, and rang the door bell. Jayne answered right away "Ginny dear", she said in surprise "what brings you here ?". "It's Hermione she's in labour and she's been asking for you and Robert", replied Ginny. "Oh my goodness" cried Jayne. She called Robert and the 3 of them hurried into the taxi and back to the hospital. The 3 of them raced down the corridor to the labour ward, and hugged Hermione. "We came as soon as we heard", said Jayne hugging her daughter. "Help", screamed Hermione in pain "epidural – take this away, I'm trying to give birth to 3 babies, here, the pain is killing me". Harry ran to find a nurse "nurse come quickly Hermione is asking for an epidural ", he panted. The nurse ran in and gave Hermione the epidural after which things began to calm down.
Half an hour later Hermione gave a big push and the 1st babies cry filled the room. "Congratulations 'Mione, Draco you have a son" said Molly, "can I hold him after all he is mine" said Draco. Molly nodded and handed the tiny boy to his father. The baby had blonde wavy hair and brown eyes. 5 minutes later Hermione gave another big push and the 2nd of the babies was born, and a minute later she was followed up by the third and final baby another girl. Both girls had blonde hair and brown eyes. "well congratulations 'Mione and Draco", everyone said. Draco walked over to his wife "well done darling", he said kissing her. "Draco", said Hermione, "we have to name the babies". They whispered to each other, and then Draco said, "ok everyone Hermione and I have finally decided on names for our children, our son shall be Joshua Thomas Malfoy. Our eldest daughter (he picked up the bigger of the 2 girls) shall be Roseanna Lucy Malfoy, and our younger daughter will be Jasmine Nicole Malfoy". Every clapped to welcome the babies, and then Hermione went to sleep exhausted.
