Chapter 10: The Divorce

It was finally the morning that Hermione and Ron had to go to court. Hermione was getting ready. She looked nice. Her long curly hair was pulled back into ponytail at the back of her head and she was wearing a women's suit. It suited her perfectly. She looked at herself one more time in the full body mirror in her room then left. She went downstairs and grabbed her purse that held the divorce papers, kissed Rose, Hugo, Scorpius, and Draco then apparated to the court house. She went in and was greeted by the whole Weasley family, besides Ron, the Potter family, besides the kids who stayed at the Burrow, and the Lupin family. Everybody was there for her. Then the clock struck ten and they were all ushered inside the court room. Today Hermione wasn't just getting a divorce, she was also pleading for full custody of Rose and Hugo.

Hermione sat at the front, with Ron on the other side. He looked horrible, but she didn't care. She wanted to be away from him forever, where he couldn't hurt her or Rose anymore. She knew she was going to win. She had so much on him where he didn't have anything on her.

The hearing went quite well. Ron didn't yell at all. He answered all the questions truthfully. Hermione was granted full custody of Rose and Hugo, which made her very happy. Before she knew it, it was over. She had won and Ron had lost. She went back to the Weasley's to have tea and calm down. She felt really good. She wasn't tied to Ron anymore. She could do what she wanted.

After a while she went back to Draco's house, which had become home to her. Happily she hugged her children. Then they went back to playing with Scorpius. Then Draco took both of her hands and kneeled down in front of her, much to Hermione's surprise and said, "I know you just got divorced and all but I've really enjoyed these last few weeks with you. And it would make me extremely happy if you consented. So, Hermione Granger, will you marry me?" Then he brought out a little black box and opened it, presenting it to her.

Hermione gasped. She hadn't been expecting this question. She took the velvety box and examined the ring. It was beautiful. There were four little diamonds all in a row, set in a gold band. She said softly, so softly he could barely hear her, "Yes, Draco."

Draco's eyes widened at her response. He stood up. "Thank you Hermione. That makes me so happy. I love you so much," he said, breathless because he was so happy and excited. He hugged her and kissed her.

"I love you too Draco," she said against his lips as she kissed him back, wrapping her arms around him.

He placed his hand on the small of her back and placed the other on the back of her neck.

"You know Draco," she said, pulling away, "I haven't started my period yet."
