Chapter 11

The next few weeks passed in a blur for Hermione, she spent a great deal of it trying to avoid the subject of her parents.

Draco, thankfully, seemed to understand the fact that she desperately didn't want anything to do with them, and had left the subject well alone.

But Ginny and the rest of her girlfriends, who she'd started seeing on a pretty much weekly basis just didn't seem to understand.

She supposed it was because Ginny, Parvati, Lavender and Daphne had always had family, it seemed like Hermione was just expected to be seeing her mother every week, chatting with her dad on the phone about her due date.

Hermione had pretty quickly realised after her parents abandoned her a few weeks after she'd restored their memories that friends were the people she could really rely on.

She smiled at this thought as she headed into Diagon Alley for tea with the girls yet again.

Draco called it the "coven" for a laugh, which usually led to Hermione whacking his arm before she left in his car.

She made her way to the little tea shop they always met in, and was quickly ambushed by Parvati and Lavender.

She laughed as the girls cooed over her and began chatting incessantly about their latest purchases and the best baby shops on the muggle high street.

Parvati, even though she was almost eight months pregnant, she was just as slim as ever, and it was obvious she was just carrying baby weight.

Her olive skin glowed and her long luscious black hair was just as gorgeous as ever.

Telling the school about her own pregnancy had been surprisingly easy, as after the war several of the eighth year students had decided to start a family, including Parvati.

The school had even decided to set up a few weeks of summer day school for the mothers to ensure they got the NEWT grades they deserved.

Lavender had faired a little worse for wear after the war, having been attacked by Fenrir Greyback.

But although it felt almost criminal to admit it (because of the huge now fading scar that ran straight through one of Lavender's eyes, causing it to turn a bright, almost white milky blue although luckily she hadn't lost her sight.) Hermione almost thought it had been beneficial to the girl.

Instead of feeling depressed about her condition, Lavender had spent the entire summer researching old lore, going through Lupin's research, Professor Snape's potion lists and had now become something of an expert on Lycanthropy.

She'd been headhunted by the Ministry (but wanted to finish her NEWT's first) had been listed in Witch Weekly's list of 10 innovative Witches to watch, and had had a double page and cover in the daily Prophet about her research and several of her papers.

Hermione even felt privileged to be in her presence, and found she could have highly intellectual conversations with a girl she'd once thought of as silly and girlish.

"Hermione! Great to see you! Cho and Ginny have arrived together I think, they were going to do a bit of shopping before-hand." Lavender smiled, grabbing their usual table and helping Parvati into her seat.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, Cho and Ginny arrived each laden with shopping bags as they greeted the girls and flopped down next to them.

"So!" Ginny exclaimed, taking a seat as she grinned at the other girls, "Any new flames? Hermione, Parv and I are obviously taken, but you two, anyone new?"

Lavender shook her head as she sipped her tea.

"I'm working on a new paper at the moment as well as trying to focus on collecting several ingredients for the Illuminati Potions Conference in a few weeks, so I haven't had much time for dating." Ginny blinked, barely understanding a word before she turned to Cho.

"And how about Miss Chang?" Cho shrugged and smiled slightly behind her hand, causing the other girls to squeal with excitement.

"Oh, go on Cho, who is she?" Parvati grinned as Cho put her tea cup back on the table.

"Well I've actually been seeing her for a little while now to be honest, we only made it official the other day." She shrugged as the ladies smiled at her encouragingly.

"Alright it's Katie Bell, she came into my office the other day to collect some anti-depressants for her mother, we got talking, and well…" Hermione gasped and grinned, knowing Cho had been so busy with her business she'd had trouble meeting people lately.

"Great for you Cho!" She grinned as Cho beamed back and sipped at her tea, looking over to Parvati curiously.

"So how's Dean been lately, what with the baby about to arrive?" Parvati rolled her eyes and snorted.

"Being an idiot, Ginny you dated him, did he ever just freak out at the smallest things when he was nervous?" Ginny nodded and rolled her eyes.

"All the time."

"He thinks I don't notice, the idiot." The girls laughed, before turning to Hermione.

"What about you Mione? How's Draco and the babies?" Hermione shrugged and smiled.

"Draco's great, freaking out a little, he checks on me constantly. I swear it's like he thinks I'm going to drop any second." She rolled her eyes, but then smiled remembering.

"Oh, and I actually have to leave a little early today girls, got our three month check-up this afternoon." Ginny grinned and clapped her hands.

"Oh, get me a picture this time won't you?" The other three girls nodded in agreement.

Hermione chuckled and wondered what she'd done to deserve such amazing friends.

"I'm betting you now Granger, at the very least one will be a boy. I wouldn't be surprised if they all are to be honest." Draco grinned as they drove to the muggle car park closest to St. Mungos.

Hermione rolled her eyes and slapped him lightly on the shoulder.

"I don't care if they're all exact mini Malfoys, I am not calling any child of mine Scorpius." Draco groaned and pouted as Hermione laughed, before unclipping her seatbelt and getting out of the car.

"Are you sure you want to know the genders?" Draco checked for the millionth time. Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Yes, I'm sure. I know it's not always accurate, but it would be nice to get an idea, so we know where to go with names," She raised a hand as he opened his mouth and gave him a warning look as they headed up to the mannequins in the 'abandoned' shop's window.

"And if you suggest Scorpius one more time I will name them all after famous muggles." Draco sighed, defeated and instead turned to speak to the mannequins before opening the door for Hermione and heading inside.

"So all heartbeats are healthy, they all seem to be doing just fine! I know you must still be concerned about the risks of Tantagitis, but I'm happy to tell you that the irises of all of your children are developing just fine." Hermione breathed a sigh of relief as she smiled at Draco.

"So, would you like to know the genders of your children?" Before Draco could ask again, Hermione jumped in with a smile.

"Yes, we're completely sure." The Medi Witch nodded, and grabbed her clipboard.

"Well, congratulations Miss Granger, Mr Malfoy, looks like you're expecting three little girls!" Hermione ginned and shot Draco a knowing look as he rolled his eyes.

"Why do you have to be right about everything you insufferable know it all?" He teased, leaning down and kissing her gently as she smiled, still holding his hand.

"Oh, but as I always say," The Medi Witch paused as she helped Hermione up and off the bed.

"These tests aren't one hundred percent accurate, so don't paint the nursery just yet!" She winked before leaving the room.

"Hear that Granger?" Draco winked as Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Yes Draco but these are Wizard tests, they're extremely unlikely to get them wrong." He sighed and nodded.

"True, oh well, it'll be a bot next time." Hermione shot him a look.

"What? Did you think I was going to let you off at three? I want an army of children." He winked as Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Shut up you idiot and kiss me." She grinned, pulling him into her again as she held the picture of her children in the one hand, and Draco's had in the other.

Sorry it's a short one, there'll be nomre to come soon! :)
