Chapter Ten
"Are you sure?" Harry asked Draco,
"NO, I want to drag out the time I'm away from Hermione and Lola" Draco snapped,
"Draco, no need to be so sarcastic" Harry said, "We need to be sure, because if we storm this place and he's not there we lose the element of surprise" Harry said,
"I know, I'm just worried about Lola and Hermione" he sighed, "If he isn't here then I don't know where he could be" Draco admitted,
"Ok, I will send Finnigan to so severance," Harry said, "I will be contacting Ron to see how everyone is this evening and Ginny asked me to invite you to stay with us" Harry said,
"I have a hotel room" Draco said, "But thank you"
"She won't be happy but at least I can say that I tried" Harry said.
Draco sat on the end of the bed in the hotel room, pulling out the muggle mobile that Hermione had given him and looking at it trying to remember how to make it work. He spent twenty minutes pressing buttons before he found the right button and brought the device to his ear,
"Hello" he herd her voice,
"Hey beautiful" he sighed, "It's good to hear your voice" he said,
"You too, Harry said you may have a lead" she said,
"I hope it's the right, I want to come home to you" he sighed falling back on the bed, "I couldn't sleep at all last night" he said,
"I'm sorry" she whispered,
"Why it's not your fault?" he said,
"I know but I feel awful that you had to go…if I had…"
"Hermione, you did what you had to, to keep Lola and yourself safe, I'm the idiot who barged in and basically told them where you were" he sighed,
"We've both made mistakes" she said, "Oh Lola has just gotten out of the bath, Lola, Daddy's on the phone" he heard her call, and moments later his daughters voice reached him,
"Daddy?"
"Hello Princess, are you being good for mummy?" He asked,
"Yes, I helped her and Izzy make fairy cakes" She said, "But Uncle Ron ate the last one" she giggled,
"Traitor" Draco heard Ron in the background,
"Well, you may have to make some more when I'm home" Draco smiled,
"I will…Hey daddy" she said "I think Uncle Ron and Izzie like each other" she whispered
"Really?" Draco asked,
"Lola" he heard Hermione say,
"I miss you Daddy" she said changing the subject
"I miss you and mummy too" he said back, "Have you done all your homework?" he asked,
"Almost, Mummy is taking me to the park tomorrow so I can get some leaves for my science" Lola's said,
"Ok sweet heart" Draco smiled, "Well sweet dreams, I love you" he said,
"Sweet dreams daddy" she said, "You want Mummy again"
"Yes, please Princess" he said,
"Hey" Hermione said, "You should try and get some sleep"
"Not till I get the gossip" he laughed,
"There's nothing to tell...not just yet anyway" Hermione said,
"How do they look together?" he asked,
"Cute" Hermione said, "Shit, Sorry Draco I have to go Lola just smashed a glass and cut her foot"
"Ok love, I'll call you tomorrow, love you" he said
"Love you too" she said "Lola what have I…." The call cut off. Draco let out a sigh.
Ron lifted Lola to sit on the counter, before taking pointing his wand at the mess on the floor,
"I'm sorry mummy" Lola sniffer as Hermione looked her feet over,
"You know you should ask if you can't reach" Hermione sighed, "Just one little cut" Hermione said picking Lola up and taking her to the bathroom, and sitting her on the edge of the bath, "I'm just going to run the water over you feet to make sure there is no little bits of glass I can't see" Hermione said, turning the tap on and after checking the temperature she moved Lola's foot under the flow of the water, once sure there was no more glass Hermione dabbed the foot dry avoiding the cut on the side of her foot, "now we put on the magic cream" Hermione said opening a vile, "What comes next?" she asked Lola,
"Um a Plaster" she suggested,
"You are right as always" Hermione smiled, as the door opened,
"I brought Lola some socks so the plaster on" Izzy smiled,
"Thanks, we'll be out in a minute" Hermione said securing the plaster before pulling the sock over, "So next time you are going to what?" Hermione said
"Ask someone to get it for me" she said, "I'm sorry mum, I didn't want to stop you from talking to daddy and Lola and Ron where talking" she said,
"That's very sweet of you, but we won't mind you asking for help" Hermione said, Lola wrapped her arms around her mother's neck,
"Daddy will come, home, won't he?" The girl asked,
"Of course, he will" Hermione hugged her back,
"Even though I smashed a glass" the girl asked,
"Lola, your daddy will always come home to you," Hermione said,
"And to you?" she asked,
"Well, you are with me so he gets me as an extra" Hemione laughed, "Come on, you can have milk and a cookie before bed" Hermione smiled carrying her out into the front room, where Ron and Izzy where at the table,
"All fixed?" Ron asked,
"Yes, sorry" Lola said,
