Chapter 1 - The Little Stick
Hermione sat on the edge of the bathtub waiting patiently, her bare toes digging into the blue shag bathroom mat. Draco had been so skeptical of this little stick in her hand but she wouldn't have it any other way. She would trust it until she could go to a healer and do a proper test.
Draco appeared in the doorway, pulling a grey shirt over his head. He walked into the bathroom with his socked feet and took a seat beside her on the bathtub, looking at the little stick himself.
"Does it say anything?" he asked, taking the stick from her, staring at the little place she said would show the answer.
"It's almost time," she said softly, scared she would jinx it.
Then a second bold pink line appeared before their eyes, confirming their hopes and dreams.
Hermione looked over at her husband and threw her hands around his neck, tears springing instantly into her eyes. He kissed her forehead before putting her at arms length.
"We're going to be parents," he said softly, surprise in his voice as well.
She leaned back into his embrace, her head on his chest. "We're going to be parents."
