Today was the day of the Hogwarts' school reunion. I was woken up early by Justin who of course decided to play toy soldiers at the foot of my bed. I smiled, happy that he was having a good morning. His stuffed dragon sat not far from him on the bed and Crookshanks was eyeballing him on the floor. He was annoyed at Justin for taking his spot on the bed.

"Mum," He crawled up towards the pillows "Can I have pancakes?"

I smiled and threw the blankets off my legs "That sounds good to me." I stood up from my bed and Justin followed me leaving his toys in Crookshanks' sleeping spot.

"Can you go clean up your toys from my room please? You don't want Crookshanks ruining one of your soldiers again, remember?"

"Ok." He sighed. He loved the cat but whenever he left his toys on my bed or anywhere where Crookshanks liked to sleep the cat would tear up the toy.

I started to mix the batter when I heard Justin yelling at Crookshanks.

"Bad kitty!" He yelled. He chased Crookshanks into the kitchen and the cat hid behind me.

"What happened?" I asked him. He was clutching his stuffed Dragon

"Crookshanks pushed Greg off the bed and bit him!" He said angrily

Greg was his stuffed Dragon and Justin treated it as if he were alive. Sort of like an imaginary friend. I tried to hide a smile but he was just too cute. Justin knew better than to leave his toys laying around where Crookshanks could get to them but Crookshanks also knew not to be so aggressive when it came to where he slept.

"Bad Crookshanks!" I pointed a finger at the cat

Justin crossed his arm over his chest and glared at the cat. "Greg was crying."

"Where did Crookshanks bite him? Would like me to kiss it?" I asked as he pointed to the dragon's wing. I kissed it before turning back to making pancakes.

"Mommy, is Nanny Elsa coming over?" He sat down at the table with Greg in the seat beside him.

"Not today, my love." I heated up the stove

"Why?"

"Because, today we are going to Hogwarts."

"Why?"

"Because mommy wants to see some of her old friends and she wants you to come too."

"Can Greg come?"

"Sure." I said with a smile. There was no use trying to go without the dragon.

"Mommy said you can go! You gonna like it."

I couldn't help myself but laugh at my son, he was so darn cute. I knew having Greg as an imaginary friend was just a fad so I didn't argue with him I let him have Greg as a friend. Justin took Greg almost everywhere. And he wasn't shy when it came to showing people his dragon.

We had finished our breakfast; Greg wasn't hungry since he was out late last night hunting for his food, Justin had told me. I had gotten dressed first letting Justin play in his room before I came in to throw a nice shirt and pair of pants on him. He let me dress him but he wanted to put on his own shoes. It took him a long time but with my help we were finally standing in front of the fireplace. I thought it would be better this time around to take Justin via floo since I hated that damn bus. I stepped in with Justin in front of me and we both took off to the three broomsticks.

We trudged up the cobblestone steps until we found Thestral carriages waiting for the old students. We had a lovely ride up to the castle Justin beaming at the active wildlife that was outside. He had mentioned to me that if he lived here Greg would have plenty of food to eat.

"This place is cool!" Justin grinned "This is school?"

"Yes, and hopefully you will go here too."

"Me too."

I knew he was, about a year ago he started to experience his first magical abilities, he would turn his bath water colors at first and it made us laugh. Then he showed off that he could make the pictures fall off the wall by just pointing to them. The carriages pulled up bet to some huge white tents just on the outskirts of the forbidden forest and next to the lake where they could see the giant squid basking in the rays of the sun.

"Hermione!" Harry greeted her

"Hey Harry." I smiled and hugged him. He then turned to Justin

"How are you doing, squirt?"

"I'm Justin." He giggled

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry." Harry tickled the little boy.

"Hey Gin." I hugged a very pregnant Ginny and then hugged little Albus who was the same age as Justin "How's the pregnancy going?"

"It's good. I love being pregnant." She beamed

"I don't." Harry put Justin down next to Albus "She's way more emotional this time around then with Albus."

"Oh stop it, Harry." Ginny gently smacked his arm "If I could I would be pregnant for the rest of my life.

"Please, no! I love kids and all but please I don't want seven!"

I giggled at the two. I found them perfect for each other.

"Any idea if Ron will be here?"

Ginny and Harry shook their heads "Mum said he was in Paris with his new girlfriend. I highly doubt he will be here.

'Thank god' I thought. I couldn't bear being here seeing him, and I didn't need him making a scene about wanting custody of Justin.

"Oh god, I never thought he would show up." Ginny looked over at the entrance to the tent. I quickly turned and saw that it was Malfoy. "I know we were enemies in school but man he is hot."

"Mom, hold Greg. Albus and me are gonna play." I took Greg from him but continued to look over at Malfoy.

Harry glared at his wife but made no comment because he knew she would never leave him for Malfoy. I had to agree with Ginny was looking rather good. When the war ended Draco Malfoy disappeared. The ministry took everything from him and his mother. The papers had mentioned him living in the poor side of town struggling to support himself and his mother. One day everyone stopped carrying about how the Malfoys lived and forgot about them entirely. Then out of the blue, not long ago, Draco appeared. The head of some major oil company. He was back on top and they all assumed he was going to be the same old Draco as before. Just as rich and just as much a bastard.

But I thought different; I read all the articles in the local papers about him. He wasn't the same smug bastard he was in school. Just from a few articles I could tell from just the look in his eyes in every picture of him. To me they showed a much softer side to him a grown man instead of an immature boy. I always saw the good in everybody.

"He's headed this way." Ginny whispered

I watched as he casually made his way closer to us. He stopped to talk to a few people in the way even a few Gryffindors. I smiled at his change, he let go of his prejudices and saw everyone for who they really were.

"Granger." I looked up at him slightly. He was much taller than I, by a good foot.

The way he said my last name wasn't full of hate like usual, it made me feel a little weird, like if I were talking to someone else.

"Malfoy." I smiled politely.

"Nice dragon." At that point I felt embarrassed, I forgot in the few minutes it took him to walk over to us that I was holding my son's dragon.

"My son's" I answered quickly, I had no idea why it embarrassed me so much to be carrying around my son's toy but when it came to being in front of Malfoy talking about it, I couldn't quite place my words right.

He chuckled, and looked over at Ginny "Weasley." Even her name wasn't spat out like a curse word.

"I go by Potter now but I suppose I'll still answer to my maiden name."

He turned back to me "What about you? Would you answer to Weasley now since you are married to one?"

"Actually, Ron and I aren't together anymore. We divorced not long ago."

"Sorry to hear that, you two made a good couple."

'Sorry? Oh geez, I'm in a parallel world. I mean I know he's changed but he was actually sorry that I wasn't with Ron anymore?' I snapped from my thoughts "That's quite alright." I looked over at Justin who was sitting down in a corner playing with Albus. I beckoned him over and he came without a fuss.

"This is my son Justin. Justin, this is an old friend of mine, this is Draco."

"Hi." Justin said shyly.

Draco kneeled down to Justin's height. "Your mom showed me the Dragon of yours. He's pretty cool."

"Thanks. He's Greg."

"What a good name for a Dragon." That made Justin smile he liked Draco. "I'll see you later ok?"

Justin nodded his head and then ran back over to Albus to continue to play.

"You just made his day." I chuckled

He smiled "I really do like it." He said before walking away

Ginny looked at me with an odd look on her face, she was just as confused as I was. Though we knew he had changed we hadn't witnessed it till now.

The rest of the reunion went off just perfectly; Justin couldn't have acted any better than he had. By dinner time he was starting to get a little testy. The boy needed his dinner. I had talked Ginny and Harry into joining us for dinner at The Three Broomsticks, Albus was happy to be spending more time with Justin. I held my son's hand as we made our way out to the carriages. We said our goodbyes on the way out to whoever was left hanging around. The last person we said goodbye to was Draco.

"It was nice to see you again, Draco." I smiled at him. 'First name basis now, hmm?' I thought

"Same here, Hermione." He returned the smile

Just as I put Justin up into the carriage I turned once more to Draco "What are you doing right now?"

"Standing here."

"Well, I meant like once you get to Hogsmeade?" I rolled my eyes

"Going home."

"Would you like to join us for dinner?"

"You and your son?"

"And Harry's family."

He paused for a minute, "I guess it wouldn't hurt. I am hungry after all."

"Great." I smiled

"You're coming?" Justin giggled

"That's right."

I could tell that Draco didn't have much experience with kids but whatever he was doing with Justin was great.
