Their wedding had been long ago, she was no longer Hermione Anne Granger, but Hermione Anne Granger Malfoy. The Ministry of Magic had promised Draco Malfoy, that they would not tell Lucius Malfoy about the marriage, and the file would be hidden. Even though their relationships before had been rocky and had many bumps along the road, they were young, and naïve. Now, they were older, and wiser. They had three children Lukas who was two years older than his siblings at the age of seventeen, attended Durmstrang Institute. She also had given birth to fraternal twins, named Jackson and Sean. Jackson took more after his father with the blonde hair and green eyes from his mother of course. Sean though had brown slightly curled hair with breath-taking blue eyes. Both of them, of course attended Durmstrang with their older sibling Lukas.
Their wedding had been a secret from Lucius, although Narcissi knew about it. Draco had secretly written to her about Hermione during his years at Hogwarts and she had been pleased. She had secretly hoped that he would take a wife other than Pansy or some other Slytherin or pureblood.
"Listen mother, I do not want to attend that mud-blood infested thing they call a school," Lukas argued with his mother. They were eating, in the dining room. Draco folded his hands on the table and sat staring his eldest son in the eyes.
"Lukas, I will not tolerate that kind of language in this house or anywhere else on that matter especially around your mother and younger siblings," Draco, his father, said from across the long rectangular table. His mother had not spoken back a reply at his insult.
"I don't see what the problem is! I hear they have two pairs of twins at Hogwarts! Quite the pranksters I hear," Jackson said. Hermione knew he was referring to her old friends Fred and George. They had each gotten married and were each blessed with the gift of twins that acted not only like them, but ten times worse. They were in the same year as Jackson and Sean.
"Yes, I think you all shall have a great time at Hogwarts, not to mention all of the old teachers, except for Headmaster Dumbledore. Poor Headmaster died of old age," Draco said. Hermione sat there brooding Lukas had said to her. He knew her parents, and he knew that she was a muggle born witch. It seemed that Lukas would never obey her, only his father. It scared her how much he was like Lucius, even though they had never met. They were moving to England soon, and she was more terrified then her husband that they would be found out by his father.
Their new house was bigger then their house in France. Lukas was still upset about the school transfer and he had not talked to any of them. He had told his father that the real reason for not wanting to go was that they did not teach Dark Arts at Hogwarts, only defense. He never talked to her for reasons unknown. The twins on the other hand were another story. They were so excited about going to a new school where there were other twins. That was all they talked about, all the time. She had heard Lukas threatening to curse them into the next century if they did not shut up and she was sure he probably would.
For most of the night, Hermione stayed in their room. She was thinking, about how he thought so much lesser of her, only because she was a muggle born. She couldn't stand how sometimes he acted just like Lucius. But there were also times when he showed his granger bloodline. He did care about some people sometimes, but it was hardly visible most of the time.
(Next Day)
"Ready to floo?" Draco said.
"Yeah," The twins replied. Hermione went first, she was followed by the twins, and Draco and Lukas were left.
"Come on father, lets just leave them," Lukas says.
"No Lukas, I will not leave her. You are to floo to the house right now," Draco demanded. Lukas rolled his eyes and grumbled under his breath as he walked into the fireplace and mumbled the name of their new address. Draco went last. He took one last look at the sitting room that held so many memories of when he and Hermione had first move into the house.
He sighed, hating to leave the house but he needed the job. He walked into the fireplace.
"45 New England Avenue, Malfoy Manor," He shouted. Hermione and Lukas stood by each other as the twins were elsewhere in the enormous house. He smirked that old famous smirk. Here he was, back in England. The newspaper was on a clear glass table by the couch.
Gringotts Sold Out
New Purchaser considers Gringotts "position" and decide to Purchase them out. "I thought it would be better to help out Gringotts at their downfall" Purchaser says.
Draco laughed. It was that laugh he always used to use in school. Lukas had left, probably up to his "new" room. The twins had sped off to find separate rooms finally. It left Draco and Hermione alone in the sitting room.
"Funny, how we'd end up… here, of all places," Draco said.
"Yeah… funny. What do we do about Lucius?" Hermione asked.
"Hope for the best… I guess, we'll just have to hide them," Draco replied.
"Draco, I'm sick of going back to hiding…," Hermione whispered.
"Hermione, I love you, I want the best for you, and that might mean hiding you away. But I don't want to do this, I would do anything to change it, but that's just not something we can do right now." Draco replied. He pulled her into a hug and kissed her forehead.
"I love you too," She whispered disappointment was clearly hanging in her voice.
He hugged her tighter and reassured her that it would be okay. At first, she still looked unconvinced, but later was convinced. Draco was sitting on the couch with her beside him. His arm was around her shoulders and she was sleeping on his shoulder. It was 1AM, and he was wide-awake. The first time they met kept seeping into his mind.
How embarrassed he was to have actually thought she was someone new. She mumbled his name in her sleep. He would be spending more time with her now, not like his old job. He flicked on the t.v. muting it right away, as to not disturb her from her sleep. After thirty minutes of Johnny Depp's Pirates of the Caribbean, he shifted. He picked her up (bridal style) and walked up the stairs and to their room. He laid her on the bed after pulling off her clothes and putting her night gown onto her form. He walked to Jackson's room first he was a sleep with the TV screen flashing Game Over on it.
Draco walked in and turned off the screen, and pried the game controller from his hands. Sean was the same a list of pranks were sitting on his desk as he drooled on his pillow. Draco flicked off his lamp and shut his door. He walked up the tower part of the house to Lukas's room. He was still awake rearranging his room.
"Lukas, it looks good, will you please go to sleep now son?" Draco asked leaning on the doorframe with his hands in his pockets.
"Something is not right though, I just can't put my finger on it," Lukas said.
"It's the picture over there, the one of your mother," Draco said looking at the picture frame. It was red velvet. Inside was a picture of Lukas and Hermione when Lukas was three or four. It was sticking out of a box that was tossed to the side. Draco walked over to it and pulled it out. He then walked to Lukas's desk and put it there.
He looked at the calendar; it was marked down to when he would go to Hogwarts, two weeks. Draco told his son good night and went back to his room. He pulled off his clothes, put on some pajama bottoms and climbed in beside Hermione. He wrapped an arm around her and pulled her closer to his chest. "Good night my love," He whispered.
