Hello Friends! I know I wanted Christmas to be one chapter but it turns out it needs to be two! I hope you enjoy and as always I love to hear your feedback and ideas.

The amazing Kimbclar: You know how I love to make them angsty; I hope you enjoy this newest chapter. I tried to make it happier this time!

Flameofeternalfandom: Those were the 2 names I was leaning towards too!

My wonderful ArielNicholas913: I loved the name Orion Patrick first because I had to give one of the twins to have Blaise's middle name! I hope you love this update as well; I will have a part 2 in less than a week hopefully!

My Lovely Green Eyed Lana Lee: I love when Draco talks to the twins too, it is so sweet. I also agree if Blaise would have been honest he wouldn't have been alone. They never actually fully broke up, but she might have been going out the day Blaise came back to look for her on a "date". I wonder if Ron will find out, Hermione does have baby brain; she may forget to put her charms on at some point. You will see the engagement next chapter; I'm still trying to figure out how to have him ask her.

I hope I was able to clarify any lingering concerns in this chapter; next chapter is Part 2 and the engagement! As always thanks to my wonderful Beta Historygirl1863! I love you guys!

Chapter 20


The silence was deafening and they both were getting anxious, one of them had to break soon. They looked at each other in the eyes and both started to tear up, this was killing them slowly and they needed each other.

Blaise could feel his heart racing and decided someone had to budge, "Fuck this." He closed the distance between them and kissed her, he kissed her like she had never been kissed before. When they needed to breathe, he put his forehead against hers and closed his eyes. "Daphne, I need you."

Daphne watched as his lips parted with each breath, she needed him and could feel her heart racing. "Blaise I need you too." She leaned closer and closed the gap, her lips meeting his again.

He deepened the kiss and wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her body as close as he could. He missed the feel of her in his arms and he never wanted to let go again. He sighed when she pulled back and pouted.

Daphne laughed feeling slightly better, "Don't pout at me, let's go talk in the bedroom; it is private in there." She grabbed his hand and interlocked their fingers, "I want you back and I'm sorry I was being so stupid."

Blaise grinned before giving her a quick kiss on the lips, "You don't know how happy you just made me Love, I felt like you gave up on me." He stood up bringing her with him.

"I never was going to give you up, I just felt like you couldn't be honest with me and it hurt." She walked with him to Draco's room so they could talk.

"That is the only time I promise, I won't hold anything important from you again." He closed the door behind them and looked at her serious, "That was the worst two weeks of my life, I would rather not experience that ever again."

Daphne had to agree with him, she had put up a fake face in public. When she was alone in her room she would cry herself to sleep missing him. "I should have trusted you and not believed what everyone else was saying first." She ran her hand down his chest and stopped at the hem of his pants.

Blaise smirked at her before casting Muffliato and locking the door, "I really should have come to you when it happened and not hid. I will never be so stupid again, I never felt more alone." He pushed her against the wall and kissed the side of her neck.

"I forgive you Blaise; I did the first day you came to find me." She ran her hands through his hair and whispered in his ear, "You know I always found you shirtless with bedhead extremely sexy." She locked eyes with him and licked her lips.

He looked from her eyes to her lips and smirked seductively, "Is that so, what about now?" He let his pajama pants fall to the ground, leaving him in his boxer briefs only. "But now you are overdressed it seems."

Daphne looked him over and swallowed hard, "It seems I am a bit overdressed, I could use some help though." She looked at him innocently.

The hunger in their eyes was intense and within seconds they had her clothes off and lips locked desperate for each other. Somehow they made it to the bed, both naked and unable to keep their hands off each other.

Blaise lied next to her and kissed along her neck, nibbling every other kiss. He ran his fingers over her perky breasts and pinched her nipple making her moan. He smiled against her neck before moving to her lips as his hands traveled down her body.

Daphne arched her back slightly as his hands reached her inner thigh, "Please, Blaise" she moved her hips trying to get closer to his fingers.

He moved to the bottom of the bed and locked eyes with her as he made his way between her legs. Without losing eye contact, he moved his head down and leaned in slowly kissing her inner thigh. He moved to her wet core and stuck his tongue out licked up her slit slowly, this caused her to moan deeply and reach her hands in his hair.

The sounds he was causing her to make were driving him crazy, he continued tasting her before nibbling gently on her sensitive nub. This caused her to call his name out and made it harder to not start fucking her right then. He inhaled her scent and could taste her on his tongue, his favorite thing to eat.

Daphne felt herself getting close and tightened the grip in his hair, wrapping her legs around his neck. "Oh Blaise, I…I'm going…I" She felt herself come and slowly let her legs fall.

"So Delicious, I missed you." He climbed on the bed over her body and kissed her deeply letting her taste herself.

"'Now let me make it up to you." Daphne wiggled out from under him and flipped him on his back smirking. She ran her hands over his chest and kissed down his fit chest leading to his cock. Looking at him she licked the tip of his head and as she ran her fingers over his balls. She heard his breathing getting unsteady and grinned before moving her lips over the head of his cock and taking him in a little at a time.

"Daph yes…" he groaned and tried to keep his eyes on her but it felt too good. He closed his eyes and put his hands on the back of her head trying to get as much as he could in her warm mouth.

She opened her jaw a little wider and took him in her mouth fully before hearing him moan loudly and slowly moved him in and out of her mouth. As he was getting close she slid her mouth off of him and smirked before climbing back over top of him. "I want you in me now." She demanded and saw him looking smug.

"Lay on your back and I'll show you how sorry I am." He kissed her and peppered kisses down her neck before moving so he was between her legs and slid himself inside her causing her to moan loudly. He slowly picked up his speed causing the bed to start to rock with them.

"Blaise harder…" She wrapped her legs around his hips and groaned in pleasure as the angle changed and he started pounding harder. "Oh Merlin, yes!"

They picked of the pace and the only thing you could hear was skin smacking and grunts and groans as the bed rocked back and forth. He flipped her over not losing their pace and watched as she rode him moving up and down. They heard a crack and the mattress fell a few inches, that didn't stop them though.

Daphne felt a tingling in her stomach and knew she was close. She tightened down on him and started riding him faster making her breasts bounce up and down. "I'm so close Love."

Blaise reached up and grabbed her breasts squeezing them causing her to scream him name as she tightened around his cock making him release at the same time as her. She collapsed on him and lay on his chest catching her breath.

When they caught their breaths, they were both content. "I missed you Blaise, remind me never to be so stupid again." She grinned up at him and slid her hand into his.

Blaise smirked before kissing her forehead, "I will remember you said that, I missed you too if you couldn't tell." He looked around the room and started to laugh.

"What is so funny?" She followed his eyes to see that they had broken Draco's bed. "Were we really that intense? We never broke our beds." She started to laugh with him and went to sit up but cringed in pain.

"We must have been, I'll fix it and he will never know." He looked at her face and furrowed his eyebrows, "Are you okay Love? Did I hurt you?" He looked concerned.

Daphne grinned at him before giving up and laying back on him, "No I'm just sore from the pleasure, it will go away soon or you can help me stand up." She laughed lightly and was content being in his arms only.

Blaise wrapped his arms tightly around her, afraid he may lose her again. "I will help you stand when we get up." He heard some noise outside the door and sighed, "I guess we should get up, it sounds like there are people here." He slowly unwrapped himself from Daphne and helped her stand up.

"If we have to then okay, but I am not leaving your side I need you to help me stand." She grinned and walked with him getting their clothes together.

When they were both dressed Blaise cast Scourgify cleaning the room from the mess they made and grinned when he looked at her, she looked like she had just been thoroughly fucked. He cast reparo at the bed and watched as it looked brand new.

"Let's go to the loo and get cleaned up, Love." Blaise held her hand and walked out the door, quickly heading to the loo with Daphne. Once inside they laughed before heading into the shower, unable to keep their hands off each other.


Draco and Hermione were sitting on the couch and started to laugh as the door shut, they must have made up finally.

"So Christmas is a week away, are you going to bring Theo with you, Pansy?" Hermione asked curiously.

Pansy blushed and leaned her head on Theo's shoulder, "Yes, he is going to meet me at your house. It's the first time I'm bringing someone over the holidays." She smiled at Theo and kissed him.

"I'm glad you finally found someone Pans, it took long enough." Draco smiled at her, "It's good to be happy for once, thanks to Mia I understand." He grinned at Hermione and squeezed her hand.

They heard a door open and watched as Blaise and Daphne walked out of the loo, looking refreshed and grinning. Daphne tried to walk normal but she was having a hard time and leaned onto Blaise as he lead them to the chair by the fireplace.

"So I take it you two finally made up, about bloody time I was thinking I was going to see you mope around the rest of the year." Draco joked before looking serious, "I hope you cleaned my room up, I have to sleep in there you know."

Blaise looked at Daphne and they started to laugh, "Yes Drake we cleaned the room up and repaired your broken bed. I mean we fixed your sheets, nice and clean." He had hoped Draco didn't hear that part.

"You broke my bed, how the hell did you break my bed?" Draco looked at him in disbelief.

"Well you know if you shake a bed to much it can break." Blaise smirked at him proud of himself.

Draco glared at him, "I know that you smart ass, I'm just saying I haven't even broken a bed yet. What the hell." He noticed Hermione blushing slightly and smirked. "I could if I wanted to mate, I just don't feel like it."

"Yeah right Draco, just admit I beat you at something." Blaise laughed and wrapped his arms around Daphne's waist. "I'm just glad I have Daph back, you can have your room back now. Thanks for being there to help me you two." He smiled as Daphne laid her head on his shoulder.

Hermione tried to change the subject, "I will always be here to help you out Blay, we love you two." She smiled at them.

"Blaise you didn't beat me at anything, I can make Mia as sore as Daphne is without breaking a bed." Draco smirked and felt Hermione jab him in the side, "What you know it's true!"

Blaise glared at him, "I told you I don't want to hear details mate!"

Draco laughed at him, "Well Daphne is like a sister to me but I don't care if you give details. Pick your battles wisely with me Blaise; you know you will never fully win this one." He smirked and stood up excusing himself to the loo.

Hermione blushed and found her fingernails interesting, "So when are you coming over next week, Christmas eve right?" She looked at Daphne and smiled.

"Yes and my parents will be over the next day, I will be there a week or so." Daphne grinned and shifted so she was sitting next to Blaise in the over-sized chair. "What about Draco?"

Draco come walking back to the common room and plopped on the couch next to Hermione kissing her cheek. "What about me?" He looked at Daphne.

"Oh I was wondering if you were coming over for the holidays too. I kept forgetting to ask you." Daphne smiled at them and winched slightly as she moved her leg.

"Blaise why didn't you just get her a potion to take the soreness away?" Draco looked curious before leaning back on the couch, "Mother thinks I should stay at the manor but I told her I wanted to spend time with Hermione so she was excited naturally. She is going to come over on Christmas day and wants to see Mia; she hasn't seen her since she was little…well you know as the real Hermione."

Hermione looked at him surprised, "I thought you mum said she wasn't coming, she had plans or something."

Draco laughed thinking about the conversation he had with his mum. "I told her I was going to be with you and Blaise for Christmas and she was upset. After reminding her she was invited to come over for Christmas she scuffed at me and finally agreed."

"Have you told your mum about the twins yet Draco? Or yours that you were keeping them?" Pansy looked at them and smiled.

"No" Draco and Hermione said at the same time rather quickly, this made everyone laugh. "We are telling them over Christmas breakfast." Hermione said grinning and rubbed her stomach.

Blaise who had gone to get the potion Draco had mentioned came back and sat next to Daphne, "When are you going to find out what you are having?" He handed Daphne the potion and kissed her forehead.

"This week actually, Madam Pomfrey said she was going to help me." Hermione looked excited and took a sip of water that she had on the table. "I'm not saying until Christmas though, but I'm going to tell them in the morning so that way the whole day isn't about me." She shot him a look and smirked.

Blaise looked nervous for a second and shot her a glare, "I don't know what else could be as good news as that though." He looked to make sure no one noticed he was acting nervous.

Daphne smiled at Hermione excited, "He is right, that will be the best present given that day. I can't wait to know what names you pick out, I love babies."

"We have five names picked out to choose from depending on what we are having. I'm sure there will be better presents, you are too much." Hermione blushed and leaned her head on Draco's shoulder yawning.

"So there will be your parents, my mum, Pansy's parents, your aunt, and Daphne's parents all in the same house. This should be fun; I hope you have enough room in your house." Draco laughed as he wrapped an arm securely around Hermione's waist.

"Mum said it was big enough and we have 6 rooms so I'm sure there is enough space. I am confused though as to why mum gave you your own room to stay in but not Daphne." Blaise looked at him questioningly.

Draco just shrugged his shoulders and smirked, "Maybe it's because I'm just that special or they just don't trust you around Daphne."

"Hey I can keep my hands to myself in front of people." Blaise defended himself

Daphne snickered, "Sure you can love but at least I'm able to stay in your room because Mia won't say anything." She kissed his cheek and grinned.

"Blay don't be offended, I asked them if he could because I know you wouldn't want to share a room. I had no problem sharing a room since she will be in yours half the time." Hermione smiled at Blaise knowingly.

Blaise laughed and put his hand on Daphne's thigh using his thumb to rub circles against her leg. "You are right Mia, Draco is like a brother but I don't think I could share my room that long with him."

Theo watched as they talked and stayed quiet, they used to be good friends but then the war happened. He had to distance himself during the war because he wanted to stay off of both sides. He was surprised when Pansy asked him on a date and even more surprised when they were nice to him at the dance. He stared off into the fireplace and remembered the day he told them he was done.

"Theo come on, you are going to get us caught" Draco hissed as he looked around the corner of the hall.

"I told you I didn't want to do this Drake; I don't want to be on his side." Theo looked anxious and stayed where he was.

Draco growled annoyed, "It was supposed to be you, me, and Blaise. I don't want to do this either but I have to, Blaise already backed out."

Theo looked at him with pity and sighed "I get why you have to do it, I would also do it if my mum was at risk. I just can't get involved in the battle; I already talked to Blaise who is also in hiding." He looked sadly at his friend

"I don't want to do it, but else can I do?" Draco looked ready to breakdown in fear. "If I could just hide until it's over, he will never find out."

"Then hide if you have to, I'm going to try to leave. I don't want to be any part of this; sorry mate let me know you made it out okay." Theo turned around and walked away.

Theo shook the memory away and looked over at Pansy and smiled.

Pansy stared at him and smiled back, "What were you thinking about? I saw you staring off." She held his hand, "You looked like something was on your mind."

"Just remembering that time in the castle I walked out on everyone, I'm surprised I was welcomed back." He squeezed her hand and kissed her gently, "I never thought I would get a chance with you."

"I still can't believe that you have liked me for the past two years." Pansy blushed slightly and laid her head on his shoulder.

Theo smiled at her and kissed her forehead, "How could I not?"

"Theo remember the time we picked on Draco because he was talking in his sleep." Blaise started to laugh causing the other friends to remember the story and laugh as well.

"Please don't, you guys just love to pick on me." Draco had given up on stopping them and just sighed.

Theo grinned glad to be part of the group of friends again, "Yes he would be lying in his bed asleep and all of a sudden we would hear him calling a name scared."

Hermione watched as Draco just laid his head on the back of the couch and tried to ignore them. "So what name would he call out for?"

"Well he would call out for you; he did it whenever he was overly stressed. So in sixth year it only got worse, he would call out for you sounding in pain." Blaise laughed and could feel the glare from Draco.

Pansy thought for a minute and then laughed, "He even would…" Pansy was cut off as Draco cleared his throat loudly.

"If I were you, I wouldn't finish that sentence Pans." Draco glared angrily at her causing her to lean closer to Theo. "No more I mean it, it is getting too much now."

Hermione watched Draco's face carefully, "Why are you so embarrassed? You dreamt of me, what's wrong with that?"

Draco groaned in annoyance, "If you only knew you would understand, dreaming of you is one thing."

"The only way it would be embarrassing is if you said my name during" She watched as he started to blush and turned away avoiding looking at the group. Hermione didn't want to laugh at him but she did find it funny. "Really Pansy, he did that?"

Pansy looked towards Draco unsure before looking at Hermione, "You will have to talk to him about that, it's not for me to tell you."

Draco took a deep breath and looked at Hermione, "I will tell you anything you want to know in private, these vultures just love to embarrass me. I wonder why I call them friends sometimes." He glared at them which made them laugh, "See no respect but I promise I will tell you whatever you want."

Hermione thought about what he had said and remembered he had been more open the last two weeks. "Ok but you will be telling me tonight, then I can know what they find so funny."

Draco looked relieved, "Thank you for that." He told them sarcastically before rubbing his thumb in circles against her waist.

"Did everyone finish their Christmas shopping? I have to wrap my stuff still; I could've done it last week." Daphne looked in thought but smiled, "We should have a wrapping party, just us girls and invite Ginny too."

After a couple hours had passed they all went down to the great hall for dinner, each couple looking happy.

"Is it true that they are giving all the returning 8th year students the rest of the week off?" Theo asked them.

Hermione looked excited but tried not to show it, "Well Draco and I had a meeting with Professor McGonagall and she may have told us this."

"We just told the prefects last night, so it hasn't been officially announced yet but yes." Draco added taking a bit of his apple.

Daphne grinned, "I wasn't supposed to tell you guys until tomorrow morning at the meeting I had set up for the 8th year students only. We can't leave to go on holiday until the rest of the students go, so four days with no classes!"

"So I get to spend all day doing nothing; can we leave the grounds and go to Hogsmeade?" Blaise asked curiously.

"You will find out tomorrow, no more details until then." Daphne winked at him and smiled.

"Oh I know how to get it out of you before then." He whispered in her ear and kissed behind her ear as she blushed.

They had all finished their dinner and decided to head off to their common rooms for the night. Draco and Hermione headed to the heads quarters holding hand and smiling to each other. Once they reached her room, they were glad they had the quarters to themselves.

"So you promised me you would tell me whatever I wanted tonight." Hermione smiled at him and slowly changed into her pajamas, not caring if Draco watched.

"The thing you want to know if too embarrassing to talk about but only one other person knows the truth. Where do you want me to start?" Draco sighed knowing what she was going to say.

Hermione sat on the bed next to him and smiled, "From the beginning please, I want to know the truth."

Draco ran his hand through his hair, "Ok so I'll start with 3rd year, which was the first time." He took a deep breath, "It was after you hit me in the face and I went back to the common room. I was so angry and I was missing you, the real you, so much. I would go for a while missing you and then get overwhelmed and angry in the past. This time I needed to talk to someone because it was getting harder to ignore the pain of missing you." He stopped and looked at her apologetically.

She held his hand and smiled at him, "Go ahead Love, everyone knew about you and Pansy that year. She bragged about it and the rumors spread, it made us Gryffindors laugh."

"Well it wasn't funny to me, I felt terrible for it." He looked guilty before resuming his story, "I found Pansy in the common room and she noticed I was upset, more than usual and came over to me offering to talk to me about it. I always talked to her, Blaise, and Theo about it when I was upset about you being in 'France'. So that is how it started, we sat on my bed and I told her what happened. We talked about the hit and how angry I was then the anger turned to sadness as I remembered I was missing you. She told me she would help me to feel better and ease the pain in my heart."

Hermione looked at her boyfriend and could see how hard it was for him to tell her this. Her heart was feeling his pain but wanted to know what really happened, not what Blaise was told.

"Pansy sat behind me and massaged my shoulders trying to help release the tension I was feeling; she then massaged my jaw where you punched me. This slowly led to her kissing me and I still don't know why I kissed back, I only remember wishing it was you. The next thing I know we were having sex, it was my first time and I could only wish you would forgive me." Draco turned from her and wrung his hands together getting nervous.

"Go on Draco, I didn't even know who I was then."

"You were on my mind the whole time and I ended up saying your name when I came. I was so embarrassed but Pansy assured me she would never tell anyone. That's how it always started; I would miss you and go find Pansy to talk to her. We would usually just snog until we both needed air and I would feel better. I only slept with her 4 times total I promise, I felt like shit each time and wanted to write you right away. Blaise never let me and I hated him for it, I just want to tell you what happened and hoped you would forgive me." He looked at her slowly and hoped she wasn't upset with him.

"I forgive you Draco, if they didn't mess with my memories I may have not been here still. I am glad I found my way back to you, just trust in me." Hermione smiled before poking his side, "So did you really say my name all the time?"

Draco looked at her and shook his head, "If you must know Mia I did every time, I never once said her name when we did things. You were always on my mind and as I got older I would imagine it was you and not her. Blaise had shown me a picture of you but I imagine he had changed the picture to show you how you are now and not while you had the glamour charms to look like Granger."

Hermione smirked, "I didn't realize I was so special, what picture did he show you?"

Draco looked at her amused, "You were always special and let me get it." He casted an accio and his picture came into the room, he handed it to her.

"It would be this picture; I'm surprised my mum let you have this picture. They took this when we went to France for the summer between 4th and 5th year. I loved that bathing suit but my father said it was too revealing. I did have my hair bewitched to be blond that summer but I see my eyes were changed." Hermione laughed and handed the picture back to him.

Draco looked at the picture and laughed, "I still don't understand why I never put it together that you were Granger. I look at it now and I should have figured it out earlier, guess I was caught up in my own mind."

Hermione smiled at him, "I'm glad it worked out how it did, I might have hated you if I knew you then." She kissed him on the lips and grinned, "I love you now though and I love that you were honest."

"I love you too but you better not hold that against me, only two people know the real story and I want it to stay that way." He kissed her back and licked her bottom lip to deepen the kiss.

Hermione continued kissing him and ran her hands through his hair pulling him closer. She needed him and didn't think she would ever stop enjoying his kisses.


Two days had gone by and all the 8th year students were enjoying the days without classes. Since they weren't allowed to leave the grounds before everyone else, they stayed in their common rooms. Daphne had all the girls meet in the heads common room while the boys went flying at the pitch.

"So I find out today what I'm having" Hermione causally said in the middle of their conversation.

The group of girls grinned and all begged to come with her, "We will keep it a secret, we want to know."

"Only Ginny can come with us because she will not be there at Christmas, you two will have to wait." Hermione laughed at the looks on their faces.

Ginny squealed and jumped up hugging her, "Really, you just made my day! I get to see if I will have nieces or nephews, I'm so excited."

"We leave in an hour to go find out, but for now let's finish wrapping up the presents." Hermione grabbed the package she had bought for Blaise and wrapped it up quickly, being sure to label it to my Evil Twin from the good one.

The hour went by quickly and the girls had wrapped their presents, they had begged Hermione to let them come too and she finally caved in. "You are not to tell anyone, it's a surprise to Draco to so lips sealed. Draco will find out when I tell him tonight, he is excited."

They went to the hospital wing and sat down waiting for Madam Pomfrey to come in. She came in a few minutes late and smiled at Hermione, "Ready Dearie just hop on the bed and lay back, this should only take a few minutes." She picked up her wand and smiled as she waved it over Hermione's stomach and whispered an incantation before a soft yellow glow covered her stomach. "In about two minutes we will know what sex the twins will be."

For Hermione those two minutes seemed like an eternity, she saw the color slowly start to change and her heart raced. "I'm so nervous."

Madam Pomfrey smiled as she saw a blue and pink swirl form over her stomach, "it looks like you have a boy and a girl, how precious." She notated on her chart and walked away to her office, "You can go whenever you're ready, just remember you need to start coming to once a week to check on the babies."

Hermione looked at her stomach and grinned before sitting up, "This is exciting, I can't wait to tell Draco." She rubbed her stomach and couldn't stop smiling.

Ginny hugged her tight, "I have a niece and a nephew, this is so exciting!" She let go of her friend and saw she looked happy.

Pansy and Daphne looked at Hermione and grinned "I'm so excited for you guys, I know they are going to be spoiled." Daphne laughed and gave her a hug.

Hermione stood up and walked to her friends, "I can't believe I have both a girl and a boy, let's hope they look like me." She laughed and walked with them out of the door.

"Do you want to go watch the guys at the pitch?" Daphne asked as they stood there.

"I think that's a good idea, it's nice outside too." Ginny said leading them to the doors to head to the pitch.

Hermione followed behind happy she was able to keep her old friends and new friends. She knew she was lucky to have so much love and support and she couldn't wait to tell Draco tonight what they were having.

When they reached the pitch they looked up and saw the guys flying a mock game of quidditch. Ginny noticed they weren't playing with a seeker position and laughed.

"What's got you laughing Gin?" Hermione asked curious.

"Oh just noticed they are playing Chasers only, no one is playing seeker."

"Maybe it's because Harry and Draco were fighting over who got to play seeker." Daphne laughed and sat next to them in the stands.

They watched the game and chatted about needing to throw Hermione a baby shower in April. Hermione zoned out of their conversation and watched Draco fly around; she loved how passionate he was about things. She knew they would be okay and he would a great father, even if he didn't have to.

The girls cheered for their guys as they watched the game, Hermione being probably the only one who didn't understand the game.


When the guys finished playing, they flew to the ground and noticed they had spectators; they went over to the ladies.

"So did you get bored wrapping presents?" Blaise joked as he wrapped his arms around Daphne's waist and pulled her close.

Daphne smiled at him and gave him a quick kiss, "We finished wrapping then came out and watched you guys practice."

"I still think I could have beaten you guys if I was playing." Ginny laughed as she held Harry's hand.

"Maybe that's why you weren't allowed to play, I love you but you usually beat me when we play at the burrows." Harry grinned at her.

Blaise looked around and saw Theo and Pansy were gone, "Where did they go?"

"Oh Theo said he was tired so him and Pansy went back to the castle." Hermione shrugged and leaned against Draco's chest, his arms wrapped around her hips.

"He may have a good idea, I'm sore from flying so long. Daphne might need to give me a massage." Blaise winked at her and let go of her waist.

Daphne had to laugh slightly at him, "Who said I wanted to give you a massage?" She smirked at him as he leaned over and whispered something in her ear causing her to blush. "Let's go now then."

Blaise grinned and walked towards the castle, "I'll see you later guys!"

"You Slytherins are not very subtle are you?" Ginny sat on the bench and laughed, "At least us Gryffindors are more discrete."

"Yes they let you know what they want, when they want it; I still love my Slytherin though." Hermione grinned putting her hand over top of Draco's.

Draco kissed the top of her head, "Well us Slytherins aren't afraid to go after what we want." He smirked and squeezed her hips softly.

Harry looked at the two of them and seemed happy, "I'm just glad you are keeping her happy, I didn't think you could at first. I guess I am starting to change my mind about you, not all Slytherins are bad."

Hermione looked at Harry with tears in her eyes, "You mean it, you are starting to really approve of him?"

"Yes, I am, I guess I can tolerate him more now. You are like a sister to me though, so he better not hurt you or he has Blaise and me to deal with." Harry smiled at her.

"Don't worry Potter I will treat her like a queen, I love her too much to hurt her." Draco held her close and smiled.

Hermione sighed happily and smiled, "Harry I wanted to tell you because you will not be there, but Ginny was." She turned around and faced Draco before whispering into his ear. "I found out we are going to have a son and daughter."

Draco looked at her and grinned in excitement, "Really Mia, I love you." He pulled her into a kiss and pulled back so he could get on his knees and kiss her stomach. "I love you two too." He stood back up and kissed her again.

Hermione turned back around and leaned on his chest again with his hands wrapped around her stomach this time. "Well since he knows I can tell you." She grinned unable to keep the smile off her face, "I'm having a boy and a girl, I found out before we came over here to the pitch."

Harry smiled big, "That's great news! Have you two come up with any names yet?"

Draco and Hermione looked at each other and smiled, "We have discussed names and wanted to wait until we knew what we were having. I think we should say at the same time what names we want." Hermione suggested before smiling in thought.

"Great idea Mia, on the count of three we will say a girl name first. One, Two, Three…" Draco looked down at Hermione and smiled.

At The same time they both spoke, "Cassiopeia Jane Malfoy"

Hermione started to tear up and squeezed his hand excited, "You like the name too?"

Draco laughed at her excitement, "Yes and it is also my mother's middle name, so she will have your middle name and my mum's middle name."

"Ok now time for a boy name; One, Two, Three…" Hermione said feeling like she was going to cry from excitement. "Orion Patrick Malfoy." They said at the same time and grinned at each other.

Ginny looked in awe at them, "You two are too adorable together, I love the names too. I will tell mum so she can make something for them." Ginny ran over and hugged Hermione excited for her.

Harry nodded approvingly, "I like the names, so I will be Uncle Harry in June to Cassi and Orion." He grinned and went over and hugged her.

Draco looked proud and pulled her back to him protectively, "Don't tell anyone, we are surprising them on Christmas morning. Like Mia said since you two will be at the burrow you can know now."

"Orion and Cassi are going to be spoiled already, between their two uncles, two aunts, three grandmothers, two grandfathers, and Draco." Hermione laughed and felt Draco tighten his grip around her and growl in annoyance. "What's wrong Love?" She followed his eyes and saw Ron walking towards them.

Ginny saw what was going on and sighed, "He is probably coming to find me, I'll stop him from coming too close." She walked towards Ron, "What do you want, Ron?"

Ron looked past Ginny at Hermione, "I heard a rumor that Hermione was pregnant, I want to know if it's true."

"Does she look pregnant to you? If you want to believe rumor that's up to you but you are staying away from her." Ginny looked at him sternly.

Rom huffed, "Well they are awful cozy over there."

"Why do you care? The day you raped her is the day you stopped being her friend." Ginny tried to stop him from walking over but he pushed past her.

Draco pulled her as close as he could and glared at Ron as he approached. "Get away from her Weasel, you already hurt her enough."

Hermione felt scared but protected by Draco, "I don't want to talk to you or see you."

Ron ignored them and asked aggressively, "Are you pregnant? I heard from someone in Ravenclaw that you looked like you were."

Hermione cursed in her head knowing she should have been more careful, "What is it to you? I'm not your friend anymore."

Draco looked down at her and whispered in her ear, "Just tell him the truth but don't tell him the whole truth. I love you Mia. I'm right here to protect you."

Ron sneered at her, "I want to know if the rumor is true, it's a yes or no answer."

Hermione looked over at Harry and saw he had his wand out in case he had to intervene. She remembered what Draco said and took a deep breath looked up at Draco, "Are you sure?" She watched him nod and looked at Ron. "Yes" was all she said as she started to feel sick knowing the school somehow had already found out. She knew it would be in the prophet but was hoping the school never found out.

"Whose is it?" Ron glared at her, scaring her and she stiffened up against Draco.

"It is Draco's, now please leave me alone. I don't want you near me again; I only did what I did at the trial for your mother not you." She felt Draco pull her back to make it so she wasn't as close to him.

As Ron started to walk closer Draco pulled his wand out, "Back up Weasel, you will not get any closer to her. I will curse you if you get near them again, you heard her now leave."

Ron smirked, "Isn't that funny, you knocked up a muggle-born. I will have to tell your father next time I go back to Azkaban."

Draco had enough of him and moved in front of Hermione, "Let me tell you this Weasel, you will leave my family alone. If I find out you told anyone about this I will find you and hurt you." He walked closer to Ron and held his wand to this throat. "I am not fucking around, come near Mia again and you will regret it."

Ron looked scared and backed up falling to the ground, "This is bullshit, I don't want to be near her anyway." He stood up quickly and ran towards the castle.

Draco made sure he was gone before turning around and pulling Hermione into him. "He is gone Mia, you are safe I promise." He kissed the top of her head and held tight to her.

Hermione looked at him with worry still on her face, "How does the school know already, I have been using the glamour charm." She thought for a minute and frowned, "Except last week at breakfast, I had forgotten to put the charm on before I went to the great hall."

"It's okay Love, let them talk about it. No one will see your growing belly and they will think everyone made it up." Draco looked at her concerned about if she was really okay or not.

"You go to the lake and relax, I'm really sorry he pushed past me." Ginny looked apologetically at Hermione.

Hermione sighed exhausted, "Good idea Gin, I need to relax now anyway. I'm regretting helping him for your mum."

Ginny looked at her unsure what to say, "I'm going to go back and find him, I told him to leave you alone." She walked towards the castle.

Hermione walked with Draco to the lake and leaned against the tree. "I can't believe I slipped, I wanted to hide it until it was closer to my due date."

Draco leaned on the tree next to her and sighed, "It was bound to happen Love, I haven't even been checking with you the last couple weeks like I should have in the morning."

"It has been nice not thinking about covering them up as much, if only I could cast a Disillusionment Charm on my stomach." She leaned her head on his shoulder.

"You could do that but I'm not sure how long it will last each time." Draco slid his hand in hers and interlocked their fingers.

Hermione smiled before turning to face him, "I love you, Draco."

"I love you too, Mia" He kissed her forehead lovingly.


A few days had passed and the rumors now had Draco's name mixed with them. Draco and Hermione would just walk past them ignoring them when they made comments.

"We leave in the morning for holiday, did you finish packing?" Draco asked Hermione as he lazily ran his fingers over her exposed sternum and stomach while lying on his bed.

"Yes I did but I'm nervous to tell your mum about the twins." Hermione arched her back slightly as ran his fingers over a ticklish spot on her side.

Draco smirked and tickled her again making her laugh. "When it comes to mother she will take it okay, as long as she knows you aren't ruling out have one of our own one day." He kissed her behind the ear, slowly making his way down her neck.

Hermione moved her head slightly to the side to give him more access, "I'm not ruling that out, I would love to one day; if we were married at least." She moaned as he gently nipped at her neck and rubbed circles over her breasts.

"You keep moaning like that and I won't be able to control myself as much." Draco laughed lightly as he moved down to her exposed breast and gently took a nipple in his mouth and bite softly. This caused her to arch her back in pleasure and groan loudly.

"I'm all yours Draco." It was four words that caused him to look her in the eyes and crash his lips on hers hungrily. He was trying to be slow and gently but he gave in to the desired look that was on her face.

Hermione deepened the kiss and felt his erection against her thigh, this made her moan into the kiss and her hands get tangled in his hair. She pulled him closer, wanting their skin to be touching as her hands traveled down his back and squeezed his ass.

He pulled back from the kiss and licked his lips, "Why do you have to be so irresistible?" He smirked before lining himself up and entering her slowly. Once he was all the way in, he looked into her eyes to make sure she was okay before pumping faster.

Hermione tried to keep eye contact but it felt too good and she threw her head back moaning breaths of pleasure. She wrapped her legs around his hips and moved her hips to match his thrusts.

Draco lifted his body a little above her and leaned on his elbows, thrusting hard and fast inside her. He watched her face as she made little noises when she would grunt and groan and the moaning would follow. This was one of the things he found sexy about her when they made love, he knew how to make her feel pleasure.

"Oh Draco" She moaned quite loudly as she felt herself getting close, she could feel the pressure building up in the pit of her stomach and traveling downward.

He could feel her start to tighten around him and moaned as he picked up his speed. "Fuck Mia, you are so tight." He watched her face as she closed her eyes about to orgasm.

She moved her hips meeting his in a heated passion, she was so close she put her hands on her breasts and massaged them making her moan again loudly.

Draco watched her and pushed hard before finally feeling her orgasm as she screamed his name and ran her nails down his back as he kissed her.

"That was amazing Love." Hermione smiled against his lips and ran her fingers through his damp hair. "Should we shower now or in the morning?" She kissed along his jaw line.

Draco closed his eyes enjoying the feeling, "We should tonight in case we are too tired in the morning, if you keep that up we will do more than shower in there." He opened his eyes and grinned before pulling himself out of her and slowly helped her stand up.

They went to the bathroom and after almost 2 hours in the shower, they came out and keep grinning at each other before putting on their pajamas and going to sleep in his bed.


The following morning came and all of the students slowly made their way to the great hall for breakfast. Draco and Hermione meet up with Blaise and Daphne before walking into the great hall. Once the students saw them enter everyone went quiet and stared at Hermione, trying to see if she was pregnant or not.

"They are staring again Draco, I don't know why I am such an interesting topic." Hermione frowned before hurrying and sitting at the Slytherin table with them.

Draco sat next to her and Blaise and Daphne sat in front of them, "Don't worry about them, they are just listening to whoever thinks they know the truth." Draco kissed her on the cheek, "Now eat some food before we leave today."

Blaise smiled at his sister, "He is right you know, they heard what that Ravenclaw said and what Ron started spreading."

"You could really throw them a surprise and just take the charm off, they will be speechless." Daphne grinned and took a bite of her egg.

"Daph I think that is a great idea, her Gryffindor pride will get in the way of that." Blaise laughed and took a sip of his pumpkin juice. "What do you think Mia?"

Hermione looked at him like he was out of his mind, "It would be nice to get them to shut up but I can't do that. I already heard someone call me 'Malfoy's whore' the other day." She pushed the food around on her plate.

"They called you what?" Draco looked furious and looked around the great hall glaring at anyone giving them a nasty look.

"It was only a few people, nothing for you to worry about Draco. I have been called worse than that by you, it's okay really." She lied as she looked at her food and felt sick all of a sudden. "I can't eat; I'm going to be sick." She laid her head on the table and tried to hold back the sick feeling.

Draco looked at her concerned, "You know I regret ever calling you that and I don't care if only a few people called you that; it's not okay and if anyone else calls you that and I hear it." He took a deep breath trying not to let his anger get the best of him.

Daphne frowned at her friend, "Let's get you to the loo before you get sick at the tale." She stood up and walked around the table to Hermione.

"Daphne make sure she gets there safe." Draco looked at her worry crossing his face.

"I will be fine Draco, just need to get to the loo quickly." Hermione slowly stood up and walked with Daphne out of the great hall.

Once the girls were gone Blaise looked at Draco, "Mate this is getting ridicules, I can only take so much before I flip out on Weasley myself. My sister doesn't deserve all of this; I know she is upset about all of this."

"I agree Blaise I want to go after Weasley myself but she will hate me for it, I'm already walking on dragon eggs as it is." Draco looked conflicted before pushing his plate away, unable to eat anything else.

Blaise snickered at him, "She has total control in the relationship, doesn't she?"

Draco glared at him without his usual force, "I'm not saying you're right, I will only say I care about her deeply and want her happy."

"SO I was right but that's because I know you so well." He laughed and noticed the girls returning.

Daphne and Hermione sat back down at the table quietly.

They both noticed how quiet the girls were and got concerned immediately, Blaise was the first to speak.

"What happened and don't tell me nothing, you two are never this quiet." He looked at Daphne seriously.

The girls looked at each other and sighed, "Well we ran into some girls in the loo and they weren't very nice. I might have threatened them if they didn't shut up." Daphne smirked

"What did they say?" Draco asked quietly trying to control his anger.

"Well they called me Malfoy's whore again and said that's why I'm pregnant." Hermione looked on the verge of tears. Her hormones weren't helping her any because she couldn't control her feelings these last couple days.

Draco had heard enough and stood up walking over to the Gryffindor table before anyone could stop him.

Hermione watched him and starting panicking, "What is he doing? I hope he isn't going to do something terrible."

"Mia he is defending you, let him take up for you and stop worrying about Weasley." Blaise said getting annoyed with how she was acting.

Hermione opened her mouth to say something back but closed it in defeat, she was being unreasonable lately. He just wanted to defend her and all she was worrying about was that he would hurt her former friend. She looked down at her hands and was quiet.

Draco walked behind Ron and everyone in the hall was silent, "Come with me Weasel, we need to have a chat outside." He glared deadly at him and saw him nod before walking out the hall with him following behind.

As soon as the doors closed everyone started talking wondering if Draco was going to attack Ron or not.

Blaise stood up and demanded the girls stay put as he ran out of the hall to make sure Draco didn't kill him.

Sure enough Draco had him against the brick wall with his wand to this throat; he ran over to them and panted out of breath.

"I swear Weasley if I hear you say one more thing about Hermione I will make you wish you were dead." Draco looked at him deadly, "I will personally make a trip to Azkaban to inform my father to make your visits as uncomfortable as possible." He laughed cruelly at him.

"You think you scare me Malfoy, I have already spent a few weekends in Azkaban." Ron smirked at him.

"I have learned how to torment people without them even knowing it. You forget I lived with Voldemort himself. Don't try it with me Weasley; I will defend Hermione in whatever way I have to." Draco jabbed his wand further into his neck. "Stay away from them and don't talk about them again, I will protect my loved ones."

Blaise walked over to Draco and looked annoyed, "I suggest you listen to him, next time you insult or spread a rumor about my sister you will have to deal with me too." He smirked at him before raising his wand and casting a Pus-squirting hex at Ron.

Draco let go of Ron as yellow pus come out of his nose and laughed, "Good one Blaise, let's get back inside." He looked back at Ron one last time, "Be lucky it was Blaise that hexed you, I wanted to kill you." He turned and walked back towards the great hall with Blaise.

Ron stood outside rubbing his neck embarrassed as he walked to the hospital wing to get the hex lifted.

Blaise and Draco walked back into the great hall laughing and sat next to the girls. "Hey ladies, sorry we were gone so long. Had to make sure Drake didn't kill Weasley." Blaise grinned and put his arm around Daphne.

Hermione looked at Draco concerned before sighing, "I'm sorry I should have told you two."

"Stop it Hermione, stop apologizing for things like that." Draco took her hand and kissed it, "We are going to protect you wither you like it or not." He looked around and saw people were starting to leave the great hall. "I guess we got back just in time to leave."

The four friends stood up and walked out of the great hall to leave for the holiday.
