A/N: "King for a Day" is a Green Day song. Well the story won't really have the "King for a day" part until chapter 2 or the endish of this chapter.

------------------------------------------------------

Draco was having a hectic day. Having been waiting hours at the hospital for his wife Hermione to give birth to their son. He remembered when he first started dating Hermione.

It was a year or so after they left Hogwarts. Draco's father was killed in the war. So he didn't have to worry about his father interfering with his life anymore.

He was working at the ministry. He just couldn't figure out what he wanted to do for a living. Draco just ended up doing odd work at the ministry. Cornelius Fudge was fired, and so the position for Minister of Magic was open. Many people were offered the job; they all declined except for one. Bill Weasley was now the new minister. Oh how happy the Weasley's were. Draco was even happy for them.

He hadn't seen Hermione since the day they left Hogwarts. That was a wonderful yet horrible day. In fact, Draco hadn't seen anyone from Hogwarts since they graduated; with the exception of some Gryffindors and Slytherins that he would rather have not seen again. He always hated his fellow Slytherins.

But he saw Hermione carrying a rather large stack of papers at the ministry when he was about nineteen. She was bringing them to Bill. Hermione didn't work at the ministry. She started her own newspaper company. It was even more popular than the "daily prophet". "The Wester" is what it was called. She said it was a random name that she picked for it.

"The Daily Prophet" was still getting readers, but the number was consistently dropping. While "The Wester's" number of readers increased weekly.

When Draco saw Hermione that day at the ministry, she caught his eye. It didn't hit him that it was her until she was out of earshot.

Her hair was cut fairly short, to about the shoulder; and it was straightened. She wore little make up, just enough to brighten up her face. She hadn't changed really all that much, just something was different about her.

Draco didn't see her for a week after that. But he decided he wanted to see her again. Draco built up enough courage and went to see her at her work.

---Flashbackish type thing---

It was January 15th.

The building for "The Wester" was located in Hogsmeade.

Hermione was apparently not busy when Draco went to her office. She was sitting at her desk, leaning back, reading a long book. Figures, typical Hermione was always reading something. She put it down when Draco came in. She smiled at him pleasantly.

"Hello Malfoy" Hermione said
"Hey" Draco responded "Care to sit down?" She asked motioning to some chairs.
"Okay" and he sat down

"So what are you doing here?" Hermione asked

"Well I saw you at the Ministry the other day, and I haven't seen barely anyone since Hogwarts, and decided to visit some people. Whether they wanted to see me or not. You are first." Draco explained

She gave him a weird nod/smile face. "Cool, so how have you been? I haven't seen hardly anyone either"

"I've been okay. Haven't done much. I see you've been busy with the paper and all." Draco said.

"Yeah I guess you could say that" She laughed. "I mean, Harry and Ron went off to play professional quidditch, so I've been pretty lonely I guess."

"Same here, what---" But he was cut off by a beeping noise.

Hermione looked down on something at her desk. Then she said

"Listen Draco, It was really nice talking to you and all. But I have to get back to work. Some "urgent" business I need to take care of. Urgent, right. . ."

"Oh okay, I understand. Do you want to go out for coffee or dinner sometime" Draco asked

She smiled "I'd like that. See you around"

-----End of flashbackish type thing-----

They started dating. For about a year and a half. They loved each other. And when Draco proposed to Hermione, she greatly accepted.

Hermione got pregnant, when she was around 22. They were already married for almost a year at this time.

So 22 year old Draco Malfoy is pacing around the hallway that Hermione is in at the hospital.

"Mr. Malfoy" one of doctors called to him through the door. Draco looked up. "You can come in here now" He continued.

"Oh okay" Draco said

He couldn't believe it. In a few minutes Draco Malfoy would become a father. He was so excited. He stood by Hermione the whole time. (Well the whole time he was allowed in their at least).

There he was. Draco and Hermione's newborn son. Adam Scott Malfoy was the name they decided on. He was born August 5th.

When Hermione was allowed to go home, people wanted to come and see the baby. She didn't want too many people over at once though. They went to Hermione's parent's house first. Her parents immediately loved him. Then they went to Draco's mother's house. She fell in love with the baby as well.

Harry and his fiancé Ginny Weasley came to their house. Ron and his wife Leah came the same day as Harry and Ginny.

Leah, Ron's wife of almost a year, met in the U.S. A few years prior. She is an American wizard. Also, Harry and Ginny's wedding was set to happen in September.
