Welcome to my newest story. I'm really excited to be writing the sequel to If It's Meant to be. I won't be able to update this story as fast as I did the previous one because I am still writing it. However I will try to update at least once a week. As always, if you recognize it, I don't own it. If I owned Harry Potter the story would be even half as good. I hope you enjoy the story, and if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions feel free to send me a message!
Hermione placed the last book in in the box and looked around the room. She couldn't believe today was the last day they'd be living in their flat. She looked out the window and let her thoughts take her away…
(Flashback)
"Mione, can I ask you something?" Draco asked her with a serious look on his face. She put down the book she was reading and gave him her attention
"Of course, what's wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong, I've just been thinking a lot lately. Now that we've been married for a while, and talking about starting a family, I think we should move into a bigger place."
"Really?" Hermione was shocked. She loved their flat. But when she started thinking about it, she realized he was right. The flat was perfect for them, but they'd need more space for children. "Okay"
"Okay… that's it?" Draco laughed "I figured we'd have to take time and really think about it before you'd agree"
(End Flashback)
"Hey babe, you okay?" Draco interrupted her thoughts.
"Yeah just reminiscing, I can't believe our house is finally ready!"
They had looked at homes for weeks before finally deciding to build it themselves. They bought the land in a magical area not too far from Harry and Ginny. Hermione's idea of a home was a little less grand than Draco's, but finally they agreed on a floor plan. On the ground floor there is a large sitting room, a music room, a reception room for parties, and a library of course. The second floor has a HUGE master suite with a bathroom nearly identical to the one in their flat and 5 bedrooms. Hermione let him have his way. She thought 5 bedrooms was a bit overkill, but Draco was adamant they may need them. Hermione and Draco had spent the past 2 months decorating the house and finally it was moving day
"I think this is the last of it." Draco wrapped his arms around her waist "I'm going to take this box over and then we can start unpacking"
"Sounds good, is Ginny still downstairs?"
"Yes, you want me to send her up?"
"Yeah, I'm going to finish dusting in here really quick, then Ginny and I will meet you and Harry at the house"
"Don't take too long" He kissed her on the head and left the room. Ginny walked in just a minute later.
"Hermione, you know you're a witch right. You could have this room clean in 2 seconds" Ginny said smirking
"I know, that's not really why we're here. I need to tell you a secret." Hermione said smiling "Since our anniversary is tomorrow I'm going to tell him then, but I just have to tell someone. I'm pregnant!"
"Oh my god! Hermione, when did you find out?"
"Yesterday. I've been feeling really tired lately and I thought it was from the stress of moving and all that, but I decided to make an appointment with my healer just to make sure. I figured she's confirm that I'm overstressed and that'd be it. Imagine my surprise when she told me I'm 6 weeks pregnant."
"How are you going to tell him?"
"I found a muggle t-shirt that says World's Greatest Dad. I think he'll get a laugh out of it. I'm going to wrap it as his anniversary gift."
"That is going to be awesome! I'm glad you'll be telling him tomorrow. I don't know how long I can keep it a secret from Harry."
"Well, let's get out of here."
The next morning Hermione woke up wrapped in Draco's arms. She could tell he was already awake.
"Good morning sleepyhead" Draco pulled her tighter
"What time is it?"
"11:30"
"I can't believe I slept so late!" She rolled over so she could face him and curled into his chest
"No big deal. We don't have any plans until tonight. Happy Anniversary"
"Happy Anniversary to you too. It feels like just yesterday I was putting on my wedding dress and walking down the aisle to the handsomest man in the world" She kissed him gently
"You have made me the happiest man on earth" He said smiling down at her "Would you like your presents now?"
"Yes. Just let me grab yours"
She walked over to the closet and pulled out 2 boxed wrapped in green. He handed her 2 in gold.
"You first" Draco said
She opened the smallest one first; it was 2 charms for her charm bracelet. A diamond encrusted number 1 to represent their first anniversary, and a house for their new home. The second gift was a black and red dress she had admired in a store in Diagon Alley with Ginny. "Did you have Ginny spying on me?" She laughed
"Of course"
"Your turn, open the bigger one first"
Inside were 2 books he had been looking at a couple of weeks ago, as well as an MP3 player.
"Thanks hun, I guess you can have your MP3 player back now"
Hemione watched his face as he opened the second box. It went from slightly confused to shock.
"World's Greatest Dad… Oh my god… I'm going to be a dad!"
Hermione saw the huge smile on his face and started to cry. He pulled her close and laughed. "We're going to be the best parents ever, and between the two of us, our child will be a genius!"
"Well of course!" She laughed
"Other than us, who knows about the baby?"
"Just Ginny. I found out 2 days ago, Harry doesn't even know yet."
"When should we tell everyone?"
"Now that you know, we can shout it from the rooftops if you want." Hermione laughed "We can tell all our friends tonight at the Anniversary party"
"Sounds like a plan. So, what do you think, boy or girl?" Draco asked "Do you have a preference?"
"I really don't. As long as the baby is healthy I'll be happy"
"I love you Hermione Malfoy" Draco said pulling her into a hug "I'm so excited"
