Another Chapter for you!

:)

The next few days passed with no troubles, Draco, Hermione and Paige had spent the days in the Manors library reading books and colouring. Paige often spent the afternoons with her Grandparents either with Lucius in his office or with Narcissa having a tea parties.

With Paige with her Grandparents it left Hermione and Draco alone, they spent their time talking, reading books and occasionally making out on the library sofa. The past few days had made them think about their future. They both agreed they wanted to have Paige and also maybe give Paige some siblings. Although they both wanted to finish Hogwarts and start their careers first before they got married and had children.

For Hermione, in two weeks her whole life had taken a whole different path. Two weeks previously Hermione was single, didn't have an experience with males and was solely interested in her studies now all she wanted was the life she and Draco would have in the future. Of course she wanted to finish her studies first but she dreamed of her future with Draco.

Christmas Eve came quickly, presents were wrapped, food was cooking and the decorations and lights were lit and bright throughout Malfoy Manor. Severus Snape had arrived and the whole family was in the living room all on the sofas waiting to open just one present on Christmas Eve night.

Draco, Hermione and little Paige were cuddled up on one sofa while Lucius and Narcissa on another and Severus in the arm chair which was normally Lucius's chair.

'Can I open my present now?' Paige asked.

'Patience Paige.' Lucius said as Draco got off the sofa and walked towards the large Christmas tree. Every since he was a child he would give everyone their presents on Christmas eve and the tradition was still going on now even though he was nearing eighteen.

'For mother.' Draco said as he placed her present in her hands. 'For Father.' He said as he smiled at his father.

'Uncle Severus.' He said as he passed a small parcel wrapped in black paper just for the potions master.

'For Hermione.' He said as she gave her the present with a smile on her face.

'For Paige.' He said as he placed a present in her hands as he kissed her head.

Draco grabbed his present from under the tree and sat down on sofa beside Paige. All the family started to open the presents and sequels came from Paige.

'Look mummy!' She said as she stood up and held up a pink night dress to her body.

'That's very nice darling. You can wear it tonight can't you?' Hermione said as she pulled her on her knee.

Paige nodded and smiled widely at her mother. Everyone finished opening their presents which was mostly night wear to wear to bed on Christmas Eve. After listening to some Christmas music and talking everyone went their separate ways to their own wings.

Draco, Hermione and Paige went to the East wing and went to their room. Paige was staying with them tonight; they were having a sleepover although they doubted that they would get much sleep with Paige.

Hermione got Paige into her new night dress and laid her in the middle of their bed and then got ready herself. Draco walked out the bedroom in silk green boxers and climbed into bed next to Paige who was already sleeping.

'Well she might just sleep.' Draco said as he turned on his side and stared at his baby girl.

'Maybe.' Hermione said as she got in the other side and laid down looking at Paige as well.

'Do you mind that she's a girl?' Hermione asked, the question had been on her mind all the time in the past week. Surly he would have wanted a boy to carry on the name.

'No why?' He asked confused.

'Well I thought...well that maybe you'd have wanted a boy to carry on the name. The new Malfoy heir?' She said.

'It doesn't matter.' He said smiling. 'If I had all girls I wouldn't care...well maybe a little only for my name sake but if they were as beautiful as Paige I wouldn't care one bit.'

Hermione only smiled and looked at Draco. 'That's lovely.' She said.

All three fell asleep cuddled together waiting for the Christmas festivities to arrive.
