#KittyKat
Hermione was stressed out.
It was two months after her wedding and the reporters were still surrounding her house. The house that Lucius gave to her and Draco as a wedding present. She couldn't stand it, and the only way to get out of the house is by floo. She never got in touch with her friends since the wedding, and she has been worrying about everyone.
Draco on the other hand, was perfectly fine. He had a job, saw his beautiful wife everyday, never minded the reporters. Hermione envied him.
"Love?" Hermione sat down on Draco's lap and kissed his cheek.
"Hm?"
"I'm going to meet up with the others for the Sunday brunch at the Burrow. Do you want to come?"
Hermione bit her lip. She wanted him to be there. Mostly because of Ron. There has been news about him toying around with girls and talking trash about Hermione and Draco. But mainly Hermione.
"Sorry Love, I have a meeting soon," Draco said kissing kissing his wife.
Hermione's eyes watered slightly and she nodded. "Okay..."
Why did Draco not know how lonely she felt sitting around the house all day? She wanted to spend time with him!
"Hermione!"
Hermione grinned and hugged everyone. She was happy to see her friends. At the moment, she needed to have a girl talk.
"You're just in time for brunch! Come sit down! Is Draco here?" Molly asked.
"No, he has a work meeting. With Malfoy Industries getting more popular, the busier he gets," Hermione said sadly.
Everyone looked at her sympathetically. Ginny then smiled and took her best friend's hand.
"C'mon 'Mione. We need to catch up!"
Everyone sat down at the table and Hermione sat between Pansy and Ginny, but across from Luna. As everyone ate, Hermione talked to the others about her life so far. She didn't say anything about the stress because of Ron glaring at her though.
"Enough talk about me! How are you guys? What's new?"
Ginny was the first to speak up. "Nothing really. Blaise is an auror with Harry and Theo. The rest of us have been trying to find jobs,"
Pansy nodded. "Lavender and I were thinking about opening a dress shop,"
At the mentioning of Hermione's old classmate, she turned her head to see the blonde smiling next to George.
"I was thinking that after I graduate, I could open a flower shop," Luna said in her same dreamy voice.
Ginny nodded enthusiastically and I'd open a beauty salon!"
Everyone laughed and continued eating. Hermione turned to Lavender and smiled.
"What about you, Lav?"
Lavender's eyes widened. "Me? Oh, well..." She turned to George, who smiled and nodded. Both of them stood up.
"I'm pregnant,"
There were shouts of glee and whoops. Hermione got up and hugged Lavender, congratulating her.
"That's wonderful, Lavender," Hermione said.
After brunch, all the girls went into Ginny's room and sat in a circle on the ground. They were all talking about baby names for Lavender's unborn child.
"Whoa whoa wait. How far into the pregnancy are you?"
"A month..."
"Well damn it Lav! Speak up, won't you?"
Everybody laughed.
"I think it's a boy," Hermione mused.
Lavender snorted. "George thinks so too,"
After a few hours, Hermione excused herself to go downstairs and see if Molly was doing okay.
Instead, she ran into Ron. He scowled at her and she slowly backed away.
"Oh...Hi,"
Ron sneered at her. "What? Came here to brag about your amazing rich life?"
Hermione just rolled her eyes and hoped Ron didn't sense her panic. "No, Ronald. And if you wouldn't mind, stay out of my life,"
Ron scoffed. "With you flouncing around your money like a slag, as if that'll be easy."
Hermione's jaw dropped. She clenched her fist and glared at Ron. How dare he? How could he? He was supposed to be her friend. Why couldn't he change like Lavender?
"I hate you Ronald Weasley," She spatted.
Before she could turn around and leave, Ron grabbed her wrist.. "This is all your fault, you know! I tried to make amends but you had to go and date that slimy arse ferret!"
"Let go of me!"
"No! Listen here Hermione, you blame everything on me when your the one to blame!"
"LET GO OF ME!"
Harry came running down the stairs, his wand poised in his hand. "Let go of her, Ron!" Harry barked.
Ron's grip on Hermione's wrist tightened. Hermione let out a yelp of pain and pushed Ron away. He barely even budged though.
"Let go of me you stupid prat!"
Ron growled and all anyone heard was a crack and a scream. Instead of sending a curse at Ron, Harry shoved Ron away from Hermione. Hermione fell to her knees with a small sob, and Harry punched Ron in the face.
"Harry! Stop! He isn't worth it!"
But Harry kept hitting his old childhood friend. He couldn't stand it. Hermione was his little sister. He knew that if Draco was here, he would be doing much worse than what he was currently doing.
Everyone came running down the stair, worried. Ginny shrieked and went to Hermione's aid. Molly followed after that. Tears were in Hermione's eyes. Suddenly the fireplace roared and out came Draco. The look of shock was plastered on his face, which was soon turned to anger.
Draco furiously separated Harry and Ron. Harry immediately backed off, knowing Draco had it from here.
"I'm sorry, mate," Harry muttered to Draco. "I should've done something before she got hurt,"
Draco just placed his hand on Harry's shoulder as if saying,'It's fine, now let me handle this son of a b****.'
"Are you okay?"
Hermione nodded and kissed Draco. Her wrist was better now, thanks to Molly. But she knew bad for Harry. He was sulking at the moment, beating himself up for not doing anything when he had the chance.
"I'm fine, Love. I thought you had a meeting,"
"I ended it early so I could come here,"
Hermione smiled. "Hm. I love you,"
