Recap:

"So you need anything? I figure we'd welcome you to our home. If you need anything well Hermione will tell you about that, and ok I'm going to just say it.. We're not friends Potter, but I want to try and get along for Mia's sake and I'm sorry I've been mean to you all these years and a bit jealous."

Draco said this as a bit of his pride inside was yelling at him defiantly however he silenced it and knew it was worth the effort to keep his Gryffindor Princess happy. Hermione bit her lip and waited for Harry's answer and reaction. Harry surprised her as he placed his hand out for Draco to shake and Draco shook and Harry nodded to Draco.

"I guess we're all guilty of the name calling Draco, since your marrying my best friend, I think we can give it a try and be civil as possible, maybe in time even we can be not so quick to get angry at each other.."

Chapter Seven: Love Stoned

Hermione awoke with a smile on her face as she opened her eyes and looked at Draco. She usually was a mid morning person however, she felt very happy and also a bit sore. To say the night had been pleasurable would be an understatement.

However it wasn't because of sex, no in fact they had fallen into bed and asleep without removing a single article of clothing. What made her so happy was the feeling of his arms around her and how she felt safe and secure.

Love..

Hermione felt loved and it was the most beautiful and warmest feeling she had ever known, This man who was still asleep and smiled quietly in it, this was love. She watched him a moment silently as he looked so innocent and like an angel as he had no frown lines, no look of worry or of anything but true peace. She smiled as she closed her eyes and burrowed her head on his chest and listened to his slow and steady heartbeat.

"I really love you Draco,betrothed or not.. I'm a little scared of meeting your dad and mom but I think that with you by my side it won't be so bad."

Hermione whispered this quietly as she relaxed a bit more. She let a soft smile caress her lips as she heard his heart beat a little faster and his breathing was a little more less evened out. She opened her eyes and tilted her head to look at him. He kept his eyes closed but she knew he was waking up and she replied to see what he would say.

"I want to have your baby"

The moment the words left her mouth his eyes popped open and his silver gray eyes looked at her. For a moment she looked back at him and he caressed her face gently with his fingertips.

"Good morning"

Hermione whispered as he continued to look at her a moment if studying her. She didn't feel unnerved about it as is fingertips trailed her cheek and her chin then her nose and finally her lips. Then he leaned in and kissed me gently and softly a moment.

"Good morning.. So how soon would you like to start trying? I mean unless it's possible we have maybe..."

He asked as he looked at her a moment,Hermione closed her eyes a moment then opened them and shook her head.

"Not yet, I mean I'm not sure we.. I might be since I wasn't using the pill for awhile now and.. "

Hermione began to answer as she for a moment went quiet and she smiled gently. As she did this her whole face lit up as she kissed his chin a moment then to his ear.

"We can try after we're married and if you Father doesn't kill us.. I'm scared a bit I know he doesn't like me.."

Hermione told him honestly, as she snuggled up against him a moment and tried to relax. It was still early yet and for a moment she linked fingers with his as he for a moment placed a hand on her stomach and looked at her.

"If we are I'm happy about it, I love you.. But I think that your worried a bit over nothing, now hear me out before you tell me I'm crazy okay?"

Draco said as he then ran his thumb over her knuckles a moment and he relaxed as he told her with as much honesty as he had,true he didn't know how they would react,his parents that was but he knew if they didn't like it he didn't care.

"Don't worry okay even if they tried to tell me to stop seeing you, I won't as for having babies,it's funny you mentioned that as that was was what I was dreaming about, you huge with our baby, growing more beautiful everyday. Then after as we became a family. So it surprised me a little bit that's what you were thinking about too. But yeah as soon as you want, I'm ready I know I am and we can do anything if we're together Hermione.

I'm not going to lie to you and sugar coat the truth,My Father is an asshole, he can be a real prick and he might not accept you because he would remember meeting you before but I know that he will grow to accept it because he has no choice in the matter, I am going to make it perfectly clear,we love each other and aren't getting married just because he mae a deal with your real parents. I love you and even if you decided to walk away right now, know I'm never going to love another woman like I love you, my heart is yours, I am yours always.."

Hermione felt the tears sting her eyes as she grinned and a tear fell at his deceleration. He wiped it away and kissed her eyelids a moment.

Hermione felt like she was in a fairytale as she opened her eyes to look at her handsome Prince, She for a moment just traced his jaw and face like he had done just moments before with her. She pulled him down to kiss her and moved so he was laying on top of her. It was a good weight, the feeling of him above her and she groaned as she felt his morning wood pressed against her. He broke the kiss and then kissed her nose. Draco was in awe with her, even now as she looked up at him with her blue eyes shining,he saw her love for him clearly.

"Are you hungry?"

Hermione asked,as she shifted so that he moved and was flat on his back and she straddled his hips. She looked down at him with a triumphal smirk and he chuckled as she kissed him gently then made to pull away. Draco groaned and held her flush against him and looked at her. His lips curled into a grin as he then began to tickle her. Hermione gasped as she began to laugh hysterically and she shrugged away from him or tried to when he moved and pinned her beneath him and he kissed her nose.

"Cheeky bastard,not playing fair"

She remarked as he then raised an eyebrow and tried to look hurt and shocked but then ended up wiggling his eyebrows that made her laugh again. His bare chest pressed against her night shirt as he hugged her then. This was the scene that Harry had walked into as he had been looking for the bathroom and ended up opening the wrong door. Draco was chuckling as he kissed Hermione and Harry just stared at them. He didn't look away either as Hermione had straddled him and then he was tickling her again. Harry began to feel out of place as they didn't seem to notice him and he went to close the door when it squeaked and then the two people on the bed turned and looked at him.

"Sorry, Morning I.. Sorry was looking for the loo and..sorry."

Harry stammered as Hermione and Draco sat up and Hermione began to giggle but then shook her head. Harry was relieved to find she was dressed in pajamas and Draco was in boxers. Well a little bit of the uneasiness left anyways.

"It's two doors on the left from here in that direction, and well Good morning to you too Harry. You sleep alright?"

Hermione asked as Harry nodded not sure what to say. She frowned a moment but then she looked at Draco and she got up. The moment her feet touched the cold hardwood she made a squeak and then looked for her slippers. Harry relaxed and laughed as she squeaked as well as Draco who leaned down and retrieved her slippers and handed them to her. Hermione kissed his cheek and smiled then she looked at Harry as she went to get a robe.

"Don't worry Harry, we weren't doing anything.. It's alright hey you hungry? We were actually about to change and wake you and Ginny and Blaise up and.. Harry ?"

Hermione looked at him a moment as she came over to hug him and rubbed his back a moment. Harry had frowned at the mention of Ginny and Blaise but he didn't want his friends to feel put on a fake smile and told Hermione.

"Really I'm fine,just it's not easy getting over your first love is all.. I'm happy for Ginny and I mean that. Blaise seems like a decent bloke, though I barely know him and.. Breakfast sounds good right about now.."

Harry said as Hermione shook her head and sighed a moment. She knew what Harry was doing as she placed her hand on her hips and told him.

"Do you really think I would fall for that, I know your happy for Ginny but you miss her, look Harry it takes time to heal, and no I haven't lost my first love but I know I would feel like death if I lost Draco, but honestly Harry. We didn't ask you to come because we wanted to make you feel bad. I know I can be bossy and if I forced you here then I'm sorry. I'd like you to stay if you want and get to know Draco and Blaise. As it is Ginny will be going home sometime tomorrow and,well if you wanted to go to the Burrow I'd understand you know, it's .. I don't want you to feel like you have to be here unless you want to be. "

Hermione said as she shook her head. She knew she had been a bit bossy to Harry and knew he was going with it out of not hurting her feelings.

"I want to come here, I.. your house is beautiful Mione.. I just feel a little lost is all and yeah I'm really happy for Ginny seriously.. I am a little,surprised you know since well we always usually go to Rons and wow. This house is big."

Harry said as he grinned and Hermione shook her head. Draco looked on watching them and for a moment a slight pang of jealousy hit him, it wasn't as bad as in the past but still, she was at ease around Potter and he told himself to stop it, to relax that she loved him not Harry Potter, she had chosen to be with him and they were just friends.

Draco just for a moment felt like he was in an intimate moment with them and he wasn't an outsider anymore. Hermione looked at him and smiled as she winked then began to tease Harry in a goodhearted fashion.

"Well I'll draw you a map as I still am going to have to make one for Draco too, later I'll show you around and Draco around more too. The house is big yes, probably not as big as Draco's house but.. still .

Harry can I ask you something,why didn't you tell me the Dursley's were that unkind to you? I mean they.. That horrid man he.. If Draco hadn't hexed him I would have. I kinda wanted to turn him into a jackass myself, the pig parts was imaginative on Draco's but.. OK this might sound weird but I feel bad for your cousin Dudley.. I mean he really seems like he's more a man than that fucking Dursley and.. I.."

Hermione became quiet as she looked at harry and the thought stood unspoken in the air between them..

"Why? Why do they treat you like that? How could they be so cruel?"

Harry just absorbed all she asked and even looked a little surprised when she had cursed. Draco too was silent as he watched and when she cursed he saw Harry's surprise look. Draco wondered if it was maybe somehow his influence or just her being herself finally that led to her colorful language.

"Hermione baby if your asking Harry to move in, know that I don't mind really just, maybe we could open the other wing of suites for him, he might not want to be around here when the baby is born and.."

Harry turned and looked at Draco shocked as did Hermione for a moment. Her shock however made her smile while Harry's made him turn to her and ask.

"Wait.. your pregnant? I mean.. "

Hermione slapped his forehead and shook her head. As she did Harry relaxed and chuckled and smiled a moment. Draco raised an eyebrow and shook his head too.

"I mean after we're married, though we want to work on that as soon as possible as well. I mean so you don't have to feel so cramped up and we get noisy sometimes and.."

Hermione went over and clasped her hand over Draco's mouth a moment and looked over at Harry. Harry actually smiled a moment and even chuckled as he then for the first time took in the room around him and he relaxed feeling better now.

"I'll think about it, just one question where was the loo again? I really need to go you know and then we can meet back here and get Ginny and Blaise"

Harry said as Hermione nodded and got up yo yell him when Draco snaked an arm around her pulling her to his lap as he kissed her palm where she held his mouth closed.

"It's the door two doors down on this side, it's blue. The room next to it is Ginny's and the one across is Blaise's."."

Hermione said as Draco looked on innocently as he caught her gaze and he began to tickle her again slowly and she tried not to giggle as she squirmed a moment. However as she squirmed and wiggled her bottom, Draco groaned and Harry took that for the cue to leave the couple and perhaps take a shower. He figured they would be a bit longer than a few minutes as well as he knew he needed to wake up a bit.

As Harry entered the bathroom, a shriek sounded and he closed the door and looked away as Hermione came running up and so did Blaise and Draco all looking surprised,wands at the ready and Harry was red faced.

"Umm the bathroom is occupied.. "

Harry said as he looked at them and they all seemed to calm down as the door behind Harry's back opened and Harry fell back on his bum as Ginny looked at him and shook her head. Blaise raised an eyebrow at her as Ginny was a bit irritated but she gave Blaise a small smile.

"Sorry about that, just Harry it seems forgot to knock and I was getting out of the shower and it surprised me is all. I'm just so used to my own bathroom at home and the boys never go in there so.."

Ginny said as she for her own merit wasn't red in the face and Harry began to splutter an apology and Ginny nodded as she replied.

"Well it's not like you haven't seen me naked before Harry.. but thank you for trying to respect my modesty by leaving and closing your eyes. The bathroom is free and I'm sorry I didn't lock the door."

Ginny replied trying to be mature about this as Blaise then shot a glare Harry's way as Ginny had said that he had seen his girlfriend naked. Ginny shook her head and went and wrapped her arms around his waist and told Blaise softly.

"Don't be mad I love you Blaise, come on we should change clothes and get ready for breakfast."

She told him pulling him along and it wasn't lost on Harry or Hermione and Draco when Ginny pulled them through to Blaise's room and closed the door. Hermione grinned and so did Draco but he then looked at Harry and offered him a hand to get up.

Once the door closed behind them Blaise kissed Ginny and she smiled against his lips. She locked the door and she ran a hand along his chest. They had slept peacefully all night and she had awoken up and went to shower before Blaise had stirred.

"Good morning ,let me make it up to you?"

She asked as she for a moment began to untie the robe and let it fall and looked at Blaise who was looking her over slowly and she caressed his face as she pulled him down to kiss her a moment. He groaned and pulled back and smiled as he took her hand and Ginny went to lay on the bed and he told her.

"Your beautiful,are you sure you want us to right now? I know I want you Ginny but if your not ready don't think you have to because of.."

Ginny wasn't ashamed or embarrassed as she lay there and looked up at him. She answered him by running a hand down and caressing her fingertips over the waist band of his pajama pants and bit her lip a moment.

"Make love with me Blaise, I'm ready, I love you and I'm finally with you and finally together."

Blaise kissed her forehead and nodded however he hesitated for a moment. Ginny wondered why as she looked at him and she sat up and caressed his face,along his neck and shoulder and down his chest.

Ginny took his hand and placed it over her heart and Blaise closed his eyes as he could feel her heart beating fast. She wondered why he hesitated and then she asked him softly.

"Blaise love, we can wait if you want to. When we are both ready alright? How about we get dressed and.."

Blaise opened his eyes and nodded as he kissed her forehead. And got up to change by going to the closet and taking out a change of clothes. Ginny's eyes followed him a moment as he stripped down to boxers and then she smiled as she got up and went to her suitcase and grabbed her jean shorts and a red shirt. She then brushed her hair and pulled it back in a ponytail letting it fall down to the middle of her back.. As she changed she wondered why Blaise didn't want her.

In her mind she was feeling a little rejected as she always thought that women made the men wait and knew that was generally true as she had six older brothers to show her that. Ginny turned to look at Blaise who had dressed in jean shorts and a white cotton tee shirt that set off his tan and the blue in his eyes popped as he was looking at her with such emotion in his eyes. Love, a bit of want and desire,confusion and lastly fear all swirled in his gaze and she wondered if he loved her and it was evident she made him aroused,why he didn't take her? Was there something wrong with her then?

Blaise felt his heart constrict and he knew he had to tell her and soon. He knew it might shock her at his confession. He needed to talk to Draco first,feeling he needed to relax though and at the moment he knew that the sooner he and Draco had this discussion the better.
