Hi all! I'm feeling better and that means you get your new chapter! Yes thank you thank you. I would just like to say this is a great honor and I would like to thank J.K Rowling because without her, I would own this stuff, which I don't.
Once again the sleeping couple was awakened by their over joyful daughter. They got up; washed and dressed her then took showers and dressed themselves, made breakfast and dropped her off. They took Draco's car this time.
"Bye darling, have fun. And please be careful." Said Hermione.
"Bye mumma, bye daddy." Said Sophia skipping in with her group.
"Don't worry about her, she's always ok when we pick her up right?" asked Draco as they drove away.
"Yeah, but never mind, it's a mothers worry." Said Hermione as Draco pulled into the pediatrician's lot.
They walked in hand-in-hand receiving a lot of looks from the people waiting. Draco went to sit down while Hermione did the scheduling.
"Hi, how may I help you?" asked the assistant named Liza.
"I want to make two appointments, I'm Hermione Malfoy and my daughter Sophia. Any day would do just great." Said Hermione.
"Ok Mrs. Malfoy, we can have Sophia on Saturday and you on Sunday. See you soon." Said Liza as Hermione thanked her.
On the way home Hermione turned on the radio and '1985' was playing. When they got home they set to work. Hermione charmed a lawn mower to mow the 2 acres of land and she let the horses out while she fixed up the garden. Draco was on the inside cleaning the bathroom and the rooms. Hermione came in a little later to fix up downstairs. Finally it was time for lunch. Hermione was making sandwiches.
When lunch was over they relaxed on the couch. Hermione was curled up in Draco's lap, her head resting on his chest listening to his heartbeats and he was softly stroking her back with one hand while the other was keeping her close.
"Do you do this much work everyday?" asked Draco softly.
"Yeah. But don't stress on it too much. It's not so bad when you know you have a reason to clean up." Said Hermione.
"What's that?"
"Knowing that your husband and daughter will appreciate it when they come home." Hermione answered.
Draco kissed the top of her head and they sat in silence for a while. Hermione's breathing got deeper which told Draco that she had fallen asleep. He carried her upstairs and put her down on the bed above the covers and covered her with that quilt her mother had made. As he was leaving he heard a faint 'thank you'.
Draco drove to the school to pick up Sophia, when he got there he saw her having a skirmish with Ella Weasley.
"My daddy is better because he can play quidditch and I'm rich, see my necklace it came in my cereal." Said Ella.
"So, my mumma can do cartwheels and splits a'cause she useded to be a gymnast." Said Sophia.
Draco chuckled softly.
"My mummy is prettier and she's smart and nicer than yours and my house is bigger and I have a cat." Said Ella harshly.
Sophia's nose and cheeks turned a light red and her bottom lip quivered.
"No! My house is better and I have a horse and my mumma is the most beautifulist person in the whole world!" yelled Sophia, her tears had started to fall and Draco couldn't take it anymore.
He went to pick her up and carry her to the car. Her head rested on his shoulder as she cried and she took a small handful of his shirt. (I used to do that when I was sleepy. So now I have a blankie that I sniff and it helps me sleep. I don't know why so don't ask.)
"It's alright darling. Don't worry about Ella, as long as we know what you said was the truth that's all that counts alright." said Draco pulling her away for a moment. He kissed her wet cheek and dried her off.
"You feel better now or do you want a cookie?" asked Draco.
"I want mumma." Sophia said quietly.
Draco nodded and buckled her up and they drove home. He tried giving her a cookie but she didn't want it. When they got home Sophia got out and ran into the house and the door magically burst open. Well they didn't have to worry about her not being magic now. She ran up the steps to her parent's room and climbed softly on the bed.
Hermione woke up and looked at her sad face.
"What's wrong my darling? Are you hurt or sick?" Hermione asked checking her over.
Draco came up and sat on the edge of the bed. Sophia rested in her mother's arms and just lay there.
"She got into a little fight with Ella today. It must have really upset her because when I tried to give her a cookie she didn't want it she just wanted to see you." Said Draco.
Hermione brought her in closer and kissed the top of her head. Draco took off her shoes and little jacket.
"Did she take her nap today when she was suppose to?" asked Hermione rocking back and forth in the rocking chair with Sophia still close to her.
"I really don't think so. I'll start dinner and you try and get her to rest or something." Said Draco, going out the door.
Sophia did go to sleep and when she woke up dinner was ready. Draco made S&K pie and cherry pie for dessert with vanilla ice cream. Sophia was feeling a lot better was back to her perky self in no time.
(Saturday, dinner and doctors)
"Come on Sophia sweetie, I promise we'll be right there the whole time. Nothing is going to get you." Said Draco, from the door.
Sophia came down in a pair of jeans and a light green kiddy halter-top. Her hair was in a bun held up with hair sticks. Draco had black jeans and red shirt that showed off his well-defined chest and abs. His blonde hair fell lightly into his eyes and Hermione was dressed like Sophia only her shirt showed cleavage and was blue.
You could say that they were a very good-looking family. They took Hermione's jeep to the big office building. Hermione's appointment had been moved to the same day, but Sophia's was first.
They walked in with her. Draco placed her on the examination table while they sat in chairs waiting for the doctor. Soon she came in. Her name was Dr. Joyce Robin and she was one of the nicest children doctors there.
"Hello. You must be Sophia, what a beautiful name. I'm Dr. Robin, can I check your heart beat?" she asked softly.
Sophia nodded and let her listen. When she was done Dr. Robin let her listen too. Then she checked her reflexes. When it was time for the shot Dr. Robin changed the subject completely.
"So sweetie pie, do you like Winnie the Pooh?"
Sophia nodded and right when she looked over at her parents the needle went through her small arm and she screamed. Hermione and Draco went over to her but she wouldn't stop. Finally it was done and she got a lollipop and a neon green bandage.
It was now Hermione's turn. Draco and Sophia walked down to the ice cream shop.
"Ok Mrs. Malfoy I'm Dr. Olsen. What seems to be the trouble?" she asked, taking her pulse and her temperature.
"For the last few months I haven't been able to sleep properly and I'm hungry at times and others I'm not. But all in all I feel just normal." Said Hermione.
"Do you mind if I give you a pregnancy test. All of my patients of child bearing age should get one." Said Dr. Olsen, taking out a flask of pink liquid.
"I don't mind. I can't be pregnant." Said Hermione.
She took a sip and they waited for a few minutes and looked at her tummy. Right where her womb was a soft light was glowing. The doctor looked up her and smiled.
"I'm pregnant?" asked Hermione, pulling her shirt down.
"Yep, 2 and a half months by the size of that dot. Congratulations." She said.
"Thank you. I have to tell my husband and daughter, our last few times failed." Said Hermione jumping down and paying for everything.
"What did she say? Are you alright?" asked Draco, as they drove to her mother's house.
"Never better." Said Hermione, when the car stopped.
They had dinner and talked for a long while. When Sophia fell asleep on the couch they decided it was time to head home. Hermione didn't know how she was going to tell Draco and Sophia but she had to hurry, by the time she was in her 4th month with Sophia she was showing.
Since Draco went to work on Monday she would invite him home for lunch or something and try to tell him that way. The last time she was just so excited she blurted it out.
Starting Sunday Hermione would have to come up with how she was going to do this. It had to be perfect. Then how was she going to break the news to Sophia, hopefully she wouldn't mind.
