Hermione raced into the living room the following day, where Draco sat with Rose on his lap and read out loud to her.
He merely looked at her and furrowed his brows when he saw the paper in her hand.

"Hermione..?"

"that evil, foul... COW! LOOK AT WHAT SHE WROTE ABOUT US!"

Draco took the paper from a shaking Hermione and opened it up - the headline and the entire centre of the paper was a picture of him and Hermione, sitting and grinning at eachother.
He started reading.

"Gryffindorprincess and Slytherinprince?

By Rita Skeeter

Hermione Granger, known as The Brightest Witch of her age, was yesterday noon seen with none other than Draco Malfoy in the humble town of Bubberton. They seemed to be cozy and rather close, so of course our reporter rushed to get a fill on the latest news. This is what wzas said:

"Can you handle being my wife?"

"I think i can manage."

Followed by big smiles and lovely eyes. We must now ask ourselves, what is going on?

The last we heard from mr. Malfoy was that he had avoided Azkaban, and had left the Wizarding part of London for good. His reputation is still hanging very low, as his Father escaped Azkaban earlier this year, followed by Narcissa Malfoy. Draco Malfoy had also been known as a spoiled child during his time at Hogwarts, and from reliable sources we have heard that Mrs. Granger (or is it Malfoy?) and himself had their disputes during their time. Hermione Granger went awol after the war, investing her time with her long term boyfriend, Ronald Weasley, a part of the golden trio.

We talked to Ronald Weasley, Hermione Grangers ex-fiance, who stated this:

She has a kid with him and apparently they are married now. That slimy bitch. He refused to say anything about their breakup.

The question is now; how did Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy end up together?

We will follow the story closely."

Draco looked stunned at the paper.

"They listened to our conversation?" He asked Hermione, who had sat down in a chair in defeat.

"Apparently. And they twisted the words.." she placed her head in her hands. "and Ron! How could he.."

Draco stood up, pulling Rose with him, who snuggled closer to his body.

"Hermione, it's not your fault. We should have been more careful about it. The issue is more how on earth we'll avoid a shitstorm of reporters now." Hermione scoffed when he swore, and Rose's head peaked up from his neck.

"mummy? You sad?" Hermione smiled. "No, baby, i'm not." Rose nodded and clung to Draco.

"Hermione, what are we going to do?" He looked at the witch. She looked back to him, her eyes burning into his.

"We have two options. Keep a low profile, hoping it'll pass, or keep up the pretence to give them something to write about and then letting it drift out again." Draco nodded.

"What about Rose?" He asked and Hermione sighed.

"It'll be easier for her to.. She's a child, Draco, and she doesn't know how to keep quiet. She lives with you, she calls to daddy and.. Oh, i don't know." She buried her head in her hands again.

"Should we just.. Pretend to be married? keep it up?" He asked her, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"i think that would be best. At least for Rose. Plus, they don't give a frogs fart about it if we don't deny it." She stated, shrugging her shoulders.

"You're right." He looked at Rose.

"Rose? would you want to go to Wizarding Playland?" Rose eyes bulged.

"PLAYLAND?" She clapped her hands, giggling all the while. Draco nodded, shooting a look at Hermione who's eyes overflowed with tears and she laughed.

"Draco, are you sure?" he nodded.

"And i have an idea to make this.. More believable, i guess?" She waited. "I was thinking, we could invite the hag here, let her see our life together and take a few pictures. If there's nothing we're hiding she won't write about it, right?" Hermione nodded, standing up.

"Let's do it. I'm contacting Harry and tell him what's going on, and then we'll take it from there." Draco came to here, hugging her with one arm and holding Rose in the other. He kissed her forehead.

"Great. Let's do it, wifie." Hermione smakced his arm and laughed.

"Let's do it, hubby." She furrowed her brows.

"What?" He asked and let her go, bobbing a happy Rose up and down.

"We need rings. They are never going to believe it without them." He nodded.

"Okay, on our way to Wizarding Playland we'll get some, okay?" She nodded.

"Rose, love, go and get one toy from the box. We'll go to Playland soon, okay?" Rose laughed and as soon as her little feet touched the ground she raced off into her rom, rumaging through her toyboxes.

"Thank you for being so sane with all this." Hermione said, hugging him properly. He was startled but hugged her back quickly, dwelling in the vanillascent in her hair.

"It's okay. I'm used to people talking about me."

Hermioen smiled, resting her nose in the crook of his neck, breathing in the scent of him.

"But.. We can't afford this. The Playland thing." she sighed. Draco chuckled.

"Hermione, i came next to you in classes. Do you really think i haven't made a name of myself? I'm clever, you know." She laughed.

"What do you do, like really? I know you have a practice here, but you can't make that much by only that?" She asked, moving away from him when she realized how close they had been. a flicker of dissapointment crossed his features, but he quickly composed himself.

"Well, no.. But i have some investments around the town, and that gives me a lot." She nodded.

"Mummy, i'm ready!" Rose came running to them, dragging a doll after her. Hermione smiled and bend down to her daughter.

"Then we better get going, right? Grab your jacket, sweetheart." Rose nodded and ran to the hall.

Hermione looked at Draco.

"let's do this, Honeeeey!" She said and Draco chuckled.
