Ginny rolled over and practically onto Draco's chest. She smiled into his chest, running her hands up his chest. He stirred slightly.
"Morning, Kaye," he murmured.
Ginny pushed herself up, her torso straddling his. His eyes were still closed but a slight smile played about his lips.
"You brat," she murmured back before leaning down to kiss him.
His arms wrapped around her and he pulled her into the kiss.
Ginny couldn't believe she had been with Draco nearly a month. She remembered that night she invited him up. She knew if she lived to a thousand, she would never forget that night. Since then they had officially brought their relationship out into the open.
Ginny's brothers were still adjusting to the fact. Ron didn't talk to her as often. Hermione was fine with it but Hermione was notoriously forgiving. The others were slowly warming to the idea that their sister was dating the Malfoy heir.
Draco's kids seemed to love her and she loved them back. Karigan was brilliant and she seemed to be very interested in flying, both the magical way and the Muggle way.
"Daddy!"
Draco and Ginny sat up as Eragon and the twins burst into the bedroom. "Ginny!" Eli cried, flinging herself at the red head.
The kids were almost used to Ginny being there in the morning. Ginny wasn't working as many flights now that she and Draco were getting more serious.
Faye crawled up into Ginny's arms as well as Draco swung Eragon into the bed. Karigan stumbled into the room as well, rubbing her eyes. She smiled at Ginny who patted the bed.
"Might as well make it a full house," Ginny said.
Eli suddenly reached out and touched the silver scar on Ginny's neck.
"How did you get that, Ginny?"
Ginny looked up and met Draco's eyes over the small girl's head.
He leaned over and kissed Ginny's neck. "This? Ginny got this when she saved my life."
Eli gasped then buried her head in the crook of Ginny's neck. "Thank you."
Ginny felt her eyes burn and tears shimmered in her vision. Draco looked at her knowingly. "Kids? Why don't you go downstairs? I'll make you pancakes!"
The kids howled with excitement. They trundled off the bed and out the door. Draco leaned over and kissed Ginny's neck again. "Thank you," he repeated.
She met his lips with hers. As she deepened the kiss, her stomach clenched. She pulled back with a gasp.
Draco frowned. "What's wrong?"
She pressed her hand to her mouth and shook her head as she darted to the bathroom.

Draco listened to the sound of Ginny's retching. He fingered the small box he had bought yesterday and wondered if her vomiting meant what he thought it meant.
Ginny finally came out, smiling at him. He was fully dressed by now and so was she. He kissed her again. Though she had clearly brushed her teeth, he could taste the slight hint of bile on her lips.
He took her hands, pulling them behind him. She grinned and slipped her hands into the back pockets of his jeans. She froze for a second then pulled her hands back, the small object in her fingers.
He went to one knee as she stared at the ring in her fingers.
"Draco is this…is this…"
He grinned. "Ginny Weasley, will you marry me?"
"Draco…I'm pregnant," she whispered.
"I know," he said. "But that has nothing to do with this. I'm asking you to marry me because I love you. And because I've known that since the night this happened," he said, touching her scar.
She was crying by now. "Draco Malfoy, you're a damn fool and I swear I will love you forever."
He slipped the ring onto her finger. She threw herself at him, kissing him furiously. "I love you," she whispered.
"And I love you…both of you."
Ginny laughed and kissed him again.
"So…" Draco began, "if it's a boy, can we name him Troilus?"
Ginny laughed. Still laughing, she drew him to his feet and led him downstairs, to the children that would soon be her own and pancakes.
(A/N: I cried while writing this chapter. Not even kidding you. I bawled like a little girl during the part where Eli asked about the scar. And when Draco proposed. Just the epilogue left my dears and then this story will be done.
