Chapter nineteen: New news

"Here we go" Draco said as they arrived at their new to be house a week later, after telling Draco's parents the news and sending a letter and getting a reply from Hermione's parents that where more than excited.

"Now, remember you promise we'll do it the normal way, muggle like, with no magic" Hermione said as they had gotten everything they needed to leave the house spotless.

"Yeah, sure, lets go... first off is to sweep the floor then mop it, cover it on newspaper to paint the walls" Draco said.

"Yep, and we got you're sister to help, isn't that right Mina" Hermione said.

"Yeah" Mina said.

"Alright let's get to it. You two clean downstairs and I'll clean up here, much easy for you two" Draco said.

"Come on Mina" Hermione said as they head downstairs and began cleaning up.

"Let's see... no magic... here we go... umm... Hermione... a little help" Draco said as he study the broom and mop.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After much work and all, they finally finish cleaning up the house.

"We can use magic now, right?" Draco said as they where about to paint the house.

"Now we are painting the house with out magic. And I think we should paint each room with a different color, of course. This first room should be light blue, the next one is dark blue, this will be light purple, this one will be light brown, and this one will be dark brown. And our bedroom will be a light creamy color, not to fight over the green and red" Hermione said.

"If you say so, but I'll pick the things for it" Draco said.

"Of course you will... come on Mina lets paint the light purple first" Hermione said.

"I'll just start with ones on this side then and you can paint the ones on that side of the hall" Draco said as he left the room.

"Hey!" Hermione screamed as Hedwig flew into the room.

"What is it?" Draco said as he ran into the room.

"It's a letter from Harry and Ron" Hermione said as Hedwig flew off.

"Read, read" Mina said.

"Yeah read it" Draco said.

"Okay, okay" Hermione said as she open the envelope.

"Dear Hermione;

"Hope you're doing well with the Malfoy's over there, and that you're first week have been okay, we're doing great over here. We went to the burrow in the last minute and stayed there this past week. Penelope and Percy came over and brought Penny with them, she's already one and walking and learning to talk, unfortuanly for her she has Fred and George as uncles who are trying to teach her how to be like them since now. Moms chase them all over the house with her broom in hand and tried to beat them up. Angelina, Fred's wife, and Alicia, George wife, helped mom out. Luna is here as well, Dean too and hiding from dad, who is trying to make his soon to be son in law tell him everything he has ever known of muggles. It's a real fiasco here.

Bill came over with Britney and their twins, Jenny and Mike, their four now. Charley also came over and he and Kate are have a kid, and they brought Mitchell over, she's three, Percy is here with Penelope and Penny, and George, Angelina, Alicia and Fred, as well as Ginny, Dean, Harry, Luna, mom and dad of course and me, obviously. Hope you're having a great Christmas week, seeya in two weeks.

Love... everyone here!

Seeya"

"Well that house could fall in any minute with all of them there" Draco said.

"Yes, it's always a fiasco when everyone is together like that. I'm going to owl them, okay?" Hermione said as she went off to send a letter to Harry and Ron.

"Sure... come on Mina, lets start painting" Draco said as they did.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Draco, okay I'm ready to... paint... what in Merlin's name happen?" Hermione said as her cam into the now painted room with a full purple colored Draco.

"She took my wand from my pocket and blasted a can of paint on me" Draco said.

"Oh god. Well better get you to the shower. Now Mina, that's not nice to do" Hermione said as Mina gave her the wand.

"I'm sorry. I wanted to help" Mina said.

"Well you can help by cleaning up a bit, okay. While I help you're brother to the bathroom, seem that you have blinded him with the paint" Hermione said as she took Draco's hand.

"Okay" Mina said as she went on to start cleaning the pain and pick p the newspapers from the floor.

"Come on you follow me" Hermione said as she pull him with her into the bathroom.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Here we go... the shower is already going and ready for... aahh!" Hermione said as Draco push her into the shower and make her get soak.

"Got you" Draco said as he close the door behind them.

"Hey... hey!" Hermione said as he took her wand.

"No magic, you said it you're self" Draco said as he put her wand on the counter on their bathroom.

"Jerk" Hermione said.

"I know, so... when are you going to spill the news?" Draco said as he step on the shower with her and hold her close as the water soak them both and made the paint wash off.

"When I'm face to face with them" Hermione said as she cares his cheek.

"Sure... you do know that Weasley is going to blow a top right?" Draco said.

"Why?" Hermione said.

"Because one; you're with me, two: you have been with me, you know, and three: he likes you" Draco said.

"Like a sister I know" Hermione said.

"No, he likes you, you know like I like you" Draco said.

"That's ridicules" Hermione said.

"Is it. Everyone in the Gryffindor tower knows is, and I know because I herd him say it to Potter on our third year" Draco said.

"You got to be kidding me, since then?" Hermione asked.

"No, since the end of you're first year" Draco said.

"Oh god" Hermione said.

"And he's going to hate me more than he has ever done and he's going to have a broken hearth when you tell him, he might even blast me" Draco said laughing.

"Oh no, this is bad" Hermione said.

"What? You regretting..." Draco said as he looks at her eyes.

"No no, not at all, is that I never knew" Hermione said.

"Come of it, he cant' stop staring at you all the chances he gets, he loves being around you, you can see it on his eyes" Draco said as he kiss her neck.

"Oh Merlin... well... you clean up and dry off and we'll finish painting" Hermione said as she grab her wand and dried her self with a quick spell and left the bathroom.

"This is going to be the two longer harder weeks of my life" Draco said as he washes off the paint from his cloth and body.
