Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any characters from the series! I do however own Cara, Susan and Hermione's pregnant belly…lol.
A/N: I'd tell you all the truth…but I can't…okay I will! Lol…I feel absolutely crummy! Cries Today has been by far the worst day of this week! Even worse than a Monday if you can imagine! So I'm over reacting a little…anway, don't expect too long of responses…and I'm sorry but I really feel like a pile of useless…something…lol. R&R please!
P.S. I know a lot of you don't find this realistic (it is fanfiction after all…but that's okay) because there is NO possible way that Hermione, Ron and Harry would stay out of one another's lives for 12 years and I COMPLETELY agree! But, to make this as entertaining as possible I can't very well have Hermione and Draco married without Harry and Ron knowing if they're still hanging out…can you imagine?! "Hey Harry, Ron, I can explain why I'm suddenly pregnant when you have no idea that I'm married to Malfoy…" So please bare with me…thank you so much! grins
Last time on My Girls!…
"At least she's happy. We should invite her to lunch this weekend to catch up on a few things." Luna said and Ginny laughed with a nod.
"Oh yes, I was quite curious." Ginny said with a blush.
Harry scowled.
"Are you two done gossiping or can we go?" Ron asked.
"We're going." Luna said throwing her arms in the air.
"Where did Mike and Charolette go?" Ginny asked.
"They went shopping, we have to go find them." Luna shrugged.
Ginny nodded and the two couples separated after short goodbyes.
Now on My Girls!…Susan scowled at her mother.
"Susan…don't." Hermione warned.
Susan sighed.
"I just don't understand why everyone is so surprised that you and dad got married. You were in love right?" Susan asked hopefully.
"It's not as simple as that. Your father and I love each other very much…it was just complicated." Hermione decided her words carefully.
"How so?" Susan asked turning to her mother.
The two sat in the living room with Hermione on one side of the couch and Susan in the middle facing her. Hermione sighed as she looked at her oldest daughter.
"Mom, I'm old enough to understand. I just want to know what happened or at least why everyone keeps thinking of dad like he's some…I don't know…they treat him like a jerk." Susan said crossing her arms over her chest with a frown.
"Maybe you should go ask dad." Hermione said softly.
Susan nodded angrily.
"Maybe I will." She said and stood up to storm out of the room.
"What's going on?" Draco just walked into the room with Cara.
Cara ran and sat on the couch between her mother and sister. Hermione looked at Draco with a frown.
"Why is everyone so surprised that you and mom are together?" Susan asked angrily.
"I have a right to know why everyone we've seen today has some comment on your marriage." Susan explained.
Draco looked surprised but nodded. He looked at Cara.
"Alright Sweet-pea, time for you to leave." He said with half a smile.
"Aww…" The young girl complained as she climbed off the couch.
"I always miss the good stuff…" She trailed off as she left the room mumbling to herself.
Susan sat back on the couch and Draco sat in a chair in front of the couch. He sighed.
"What do you want to know?" Draco asked calmly.
Susan lost her frown and looked at her father sadly.
"Why is everyone so surprised that you and mom are married?" Susan asked.
Draco thought a moment.
"Jealousy?" He asked with a smile as Hermione blushed.
Susan smiled lightly.
"Dad…" She began.
"Alright, I was a rotten little creep as a kid." Draco said calmly with a shrug as though it were nothing.
"What?" Susan asked.
"Susan," Draco began seriously.
"I'm not going into detail because I did some horrible things as a student at Hogwarts. The point is…not many of the people at Hogwarts got along with me." Draco explained thoughtfully.
"But…but you said you were popular…" Susan began sadly thinking her father had lied to her.
"I was, in my own house. I was the Prince of Slytherin." Draco said proudly.
Susan stared at him skeptically. Draco smiled at her look.
"What about mom?" Susan asked turning to her mother.
Hermione smiled as she looked at Draco.
"Aww she was the one I picked on the most." Draco said with a smile.
Hermione gave him a skeptical look.
"What about Harry?" Hermione asked.
"Couldn't really get a rise out of wonder boy." Draco shrugged.
"And Ron?" Hermione asked.
Draco smirked which brought shivers down Susan's spine at the cruel look upon her father's face.
"He wasn't as cute when he was mad." Draco joked.
Hermione laughed at that comment and Susan frowned.
"So, you teased mom because you liked her?" Susan asked hopefully.
Draco frowned.
"Uh…not exactly. I learned to like her after I grew up a little." Draco explained.
Susan nodded.
"Did you hate each other?" Susan asked quietly.
"Susan…" Hermione began.
"It doesn't matter. The point is we are now happily married with two beautiful girls and a new baby on the way. We're happy and I don't want you to worry about what people think because as long as you know that we love you it doesn't matter." Hermione said softly.
Susan nodded.
"I think it's time for bed. You have a big day tomorrow." Draco said with a smile.
Susan smiled also.
"Before bed, could you tell me the story about when you first started to fall in love?" Susan asked while making herself comfortable on the couch.
Draco looked at Hermione and she gave him a comforting smile and nod as he nodded at Susan.
"It was a snowy winter day…" Hermione began while looking at her husband as he stared back at her with curiosity in those gray eyes she fell in love with.
Hermione stood glaring daggers at the blond headed prat in front of her.
"Give it back Malfoy!" She said holding out a hand angrily.
"Come on Granger, it's just a little fun. You could use a break." Draco smirked as he held her book out of arms reach.
Hermione growled as she jumped trying to reach it. Draco had grown quite a bit since the year prior and she cursed his height of over six feet. Draco smirked at her seeing the obvious annoyance in her eyes as she glared at him. Hermione stopped jumping but didn't step back.
She stared at him a few moments before Draco broke the silence after his smirk became even wider if at all possible.
"Going to just glare daggers at me Granger or are you going to do something?" Draco asked in a mock tone.
Hermione's face didn't falter.
"I'm trying my best not to punch your lights out if you must know Malfoy." Hermione said calmly.
Draco smirked.
"In that case, I'll leave you to it." Draco said as he began to walk away.
"Malfoy I need that book!" Hermione said angrily.
"And I should care why?" He asked turning to her.
Hermione clenched her teeth and Draco wondered for a split second if he was taking this too far.
The thought quickly left his mind as Hermione walked up to him. She stood for a moment before finally speaking.
"Please." She said looking down at the snow.
Draco looked at the book in his hand curiously before frowning. He knew he was going to regret this. Draco took Hermione's hand and placed the book down in her palm before letting them both go. Without another word he left, angry with himself for letting a simple word get to him.
Although Hermione's head was bowed a small smile fell onto her features as she lifted her head slowly and watched Draco leave.
He was finally growing up.

SwTnDrEaMyPnAy03- Sorry this response isn't even remotely close to yours but I'm not feeling well…you know it's one of those days where you think "Why the hell did I bother get out of bed?" lol. I had chorus which we didn't even sing…I had wellness which is like a health class where we talked and stayed COMPLETELY off topic all class long which is usually okay but we ended up on gay marriages and my teachers sex life…disturbing I tell you! Then I had Spanish…a substitute who tried to give me pointers on a language she doesn't know…then lunch where one of my 'friends' said I look like hell even though I don't look different from any other day…isn't that nice? and my headache became ten times worse from all the noise…not to mention I ran out of money and couldn't buy what I wanted so I ended up with a stale hamburger and had to sit by a guy who ignores me one minute and is all over me the next…sigh Life truly sucks!
