"You've never just stargazed? But the Manor is perfect for that."

"We have a conservatory with a telescope. I've looked at the stars that way. It would be undignified for a Malfoy to lay outside."

"Well, you're going to be undignified them. Please?"

"You know I can't say no to you."

I grabbed a blanket and Draco's hand. We walked through his mother's gardens and down a bit of s path before we came to a clearing. Laying the blanket out, I laid on my back and motioned for Draco to join me.

"But what if the grass is wet."

"That is why we have the blanket. It has not rained in a few days so the only thing making the grass wet is dew. We will be fine."

Laying down next to me, Draco looked up and waited.

"Now what?"

"Now we name the constellations we see. There is Ursa Major and Minor."

"This is really stupid, Granger."

"Hush you. There is Draco."

"It should be bigger. It always looked bigger through the telescope."

"It would look bigger through a telescope; they magnify the size of objects far away."

"Just there is Lyra and over there is Cassiopeia. I think either of those names would be great little girl names if Malfoys ever had girls."

"When was the last female born to the Malfoy line?"

"Never. It has always been males and for the past five hundred years it has just been a single male born."

"Well, now that you are having a child with a muggle-born, maybe that will change."

"Maybe, or maybe my lineage is cursed to only have one male ever born to it."

"Oh, Draco. If that proves to be true, we could always adopt if you want more kids."

"That would be one way around it."

"What other constellations do you think would make good names?"

Draco and I spent another hour looking at the stars. Just as we were about to go inside, a meteor flew over.

"Make a wish."

"Why?"

"We call these shooting stars in the muggle world and when you see one you are supposed to make a wish."

"Do they ever come true?"

"Sometimes. It's more of a superstition than anything."

After giving birth to our twins, Draco revealed he wished for us to have more than one child.
