I do not own anything.
Hermione sat on her bed, staring a plus sign on her pregnancy test. She was waiting for Draco to come back from work. It was two weeks since they had gotten married and now here Hermione was, pregnant. The doorbell rang and Hermione ran to open it. There stood Draco wearing wizarding clothes and looking extremely tired. But he still looked young and handsome all at once. She smiled and kissed him.
Draco went inside the house but not before pulling his lovely wife close to him in a bear hug. Draco went to get showered while Hermione sat the table. She bit her lip. She wondered how Draco was going to take the news. Minutes past and Hermione waited for Draco impatiently.
She turned around and came in contact with Draco who was standing to near her. She knocked into his and Draco caught her before she crashed into their table.
"Careful love, what's on your mind? Is there something bothering you?" Draco said.
Hermione looked down and toyed with the hem of his white shirt. Draco lovingly tucked a loose strand of her hair behind her ear.
"Draco, I'm pregnant" She said as she looked into his eyes.
Draco grinned and spun her around in joy. He hugged her and kissed her lovingly. Hermione smiled. She liked his reaction.
They happily sat at the table and started to eat. But then, the doorbell rang. Hermione got up but Draco beat her to it. Draco opened the door and came face to face with Josh. The moment Draco saw Josh; he wanted to shut the door close again. Josh was the same. He just looked oddly pale and tired. Josh smiled at Draco. Draco felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. There was something truly freaky about this guy.
"Who is it Draco" Hermione said walking towards the door.
Behind Draco, she saw Josh. She gasped and ran towards him. Josh smiled at Hermione and hugged her. Draco felt a weird feeling run down his spine as he watched his wife hug that weird stranger.
"Josh! You're here. How did you get here? I missed you so much" Hermione said to Josh.
"Oh I got the address from one of your friends. He seemed like a funny guy. He didn't even know what I was talking about when I asked him if he was a arsenal supporter" Josh said while shaking his head mockingly.
"Come in and have dinner with us" Hermione offered hopefully.
"Oh thanks Mione but I need to go somewhere. I just came to say hi. I wanted to know where you live so I could visit you. I just heard you got married. Congrats" Josh said
Hermione smiled and hugged Draco in return. They waved good bye and Josh disappeared into the night. Hermione skipped back to the table and began to eat her ravioli dish. Draco absentmindedly nodded to Hermione's happy chatter. Suddenly, Draco's eyes fell on an owl outside the window. It looked like the owl was from the ministry of magic. He got up and opened the window.
He took the letter from the owl and read it.
"Hermione, I got to go. I am needed at the minister's office right away" Draco said to Hermione.
Hermione sadly watched him get ready and kissed him goodbye. She missed him already and he wasn't even gone yet. She waited for his return but the sun rose and he was still at work.
