Hi everyone! I decided that I wanted to update sooner than I said, because I was bored. Thanks for waiting for that long while. As you know, I don't own anything. Oh, I hope that you all had a great Christmas!
Hermione searched in the kitchen, the living room, her room and the bathroom with no use of finding the missing bottle. Hermione also discovered a nervous habit, she would play with her locket, when she reached up to play with it, the locket wasn't there. Finally she called Draco.
"Draco, have you seen the medicine bottle?" asked Hermione frantically.
"No, not since yesterday. Did you ask Sophia?" said Draco, typing quickly.
"I did but she says she hasn't seen it. What am I going to do, she needs that in order to get well." Said Hermione about to cry.
"It's alright Hermione. Let me speak to Sophia and I'll tell you where the bottle is." Said Draco.
Hermione gave the phone to her daughter and sat down waiting for the answer. Sophia quickly responded and got the bottle out of her toy box, spoon and all. Then she gave the phone back to Hermione.
"You didn't yell at her did you?" asked Hermione, getting everything ready.
"No, I just simply explained that unless she find the bottle she was going to have to get a shot and she hates those more than anything." Said Draco, very proud of himself.
"Thanks. I'll see you when you get home all right. Bye sweetie." Said Hermione.
Draco said his good byes and hung up the phone.
(Later that night.)
Sophia was sitting on the couch watching some cartoons and Hermione was in the kitchen. Soon Draco came home. Sophia ran to him and jumped in his arms.
"Hi daddy! I missed you today." Said Sophia, kissing his cheek.
"I missed you too. I got you something." Said Draco putting her down.
Draco pulled a white box out of thin air and handed it to Sophia. Hermione came out of the kitchen to see what it was. Sophia opened it and out jumped a brown kitty.
"Thanks so much daddy! I love it!" exclaimed Sophia jumping up again.
"A cat Draco?" questioned Hermione.
"Yeah, I had one when I was her age. You had one in your third year." Said Draco, smirking.
"Please mumma, can I keep him? Please." Pleaded Sophia.
Hermione thought about this for a moment. She looked at the cute kitten and saw how happy it made Sophia and caved in.
"Sure you can keep him. Take care of him please, unlike your poor fish or frog." Said Hermione going back into the kitchen.
"So what are you going to name him?" asked Draco, putting up his coat and taking off his shoes.
"His name is going to be Coke." Said Sophia.
When she said that, the shiny nametag that already had the address on it now said Coke. While Sophia showed Coke around the house Draco went into the kitchen with Hermione. Draco put his arms around her.
" How was your day?" asked Hermione, stirring something green.
"It was the same, I got my article done and it should be out in tomorrows paper. How about you?" said Draco.
"Nothing much, just cleaning and trying to get some rest. I lost my locket again and I can't find it." Said Hermione, turning around.
Draco pulled a blue box out of his pocket and handed it to Hermione. Inside was her locket but there was something different about it. There were three small stones along the side. The biggest was in the shape of a heart and aquamarine for March. One smaller was in a heart too and turquoise and the smallest was a diamond.
"Do you like it?" asked Draco.
"I don't get it." Stated Hermione.
"Well the aquamarine is my birthstone because I was born in March, the turquoise one is for Sophia because she was born in December and the smallest is for Andrew because he'll most likely be born in April." Said Draco.
"I love it, thank you so much." Said Hermione, giving him a hug and kissing him passionately.
"I love you." Said Draco softly.
"I love you more. I've got to finish dinner, so go do something." Said Hermione shooing him out of the kitchen.
Hermione opened the locket and there was a picture of Draco and Sophia the year before at a picnic and the other side was a picture of Draco just smiling at her. Soon dinner was done, they ate warm lime soup and for dessert they had heart shaped sugar cookies.
(Tuesday night)
Sophia's recovery was very quick. All of her spots were almost gone. Hermione was in the kitchen with a cute yellow dress and an apron trying to make meat loaf. Ginny was bringing the dessert and mashed potatoes. Draco was out back lighting candles and cleaning all the dead leaves in black slacks and a white button up shirt. Sophia was cleaning her room sort of and trying to find her white shoes to match her adorable baby blue dress with tons of layers under it.
"You did a great job. Need any more help?" asked Hermione, coming outside.
The apron was gone and she looked beautiful. Hermione walked over to him and noticed that his collar was messed up. As all wives do she fixed it and then admired her work.
"Thanks. I think I have everything set out here. Do you need any help inside?" asked Draco, coming inside.
" Maybe. I'm not too sure about Sophia's room, the bathroom has been cleaned I have the video's and other stuff. Coke's been fed and his litter box has been cleaned an--." Started Hermione.
Draco kissed her softly in the middle of her words. Hermione kissed him back and then Sophia came downstairs and eyed her parents. Then without warning she yelled.
"My hair is messed up mumma!"
Draco and Hermione broke away and looked down at her smiling face. Hermione smiled and fixed her hair before someone knocked on the door. It was the Weasley's. Jill's middle had grown a lot bigger since their last meeting.
"Hi, please come in. Ginny and Harry should be here soon." Said Draco, checking his watch.
The Weasley's walked in and had a comforting feeling looking around the quaint house. Sophia came rushing over to them and jumped into Ron's arms.
"Hi Ron! Daddy got me a kitten the other day. His name is Coke and mumma tells me stories about you all the time." Said Sophia happily.
"Oh really. Well you're a lucky girl; Ella can't have a cat because of her frog. Did Hermione tell you about our 5th year?" asked Ron sitting down.
Sophia shook her head and so Ron began the story. Ella said her greetings to Hermione and Draco and joined them in the story.
"I'm sorry about her. She does that to everyone." Said Hermione, as the rest sat on the remaining seats.
"It's no trouble. I'm sure Ron doesn't mind. Ella stopped doing that after she declared herself a princess. Now she has to always have her crown and a fluffy dress." Said Jill with a smile.
"Sophia insists on taking Coke with her everywhere. But I don't really mind as long as he doesn't get lost." Said Draco, looking over at his daughter.
(Knock, knock)
"That must be Ginny and Harry." Said Hermione, about to stand when Draco got up first.
"It's alright, I got it. Just relax." Said Draco, going to the door.
Draco opened it and there stood the last remaining friends. Ginny was holding a wicker basket of nice smelling foods and Harry came up behind her with a tired looking Phil.
"Hi guys. Sorry we're a bit late, Phil was at the Burrow and didn't want to leave." Said Ginny handing her coat to Draco.
"No problem, glad you came." Said Hermione, going to give them hugs.
Hermione carried the basket into the kitchen and got everything set up for dinner. Ginny and Jill followed. The kids listened to the rest of the story and then went upstairs to Sophia's room. The guys turned on the TV to watch the end of a quidditch game.
"I've noticed that Draco has been doing a lot for you lately. Did he do something wrong or is it because you're pregnant?" asked Jill as Hermione got down plates and cups.
"I think it's because of the baby. He was the same way with Sophia. Always clouding over me to make sure that I was all right. It's sweet but it can also become a bother." Said Hermione, setting the table.
"Harry was the same way too. You know, we're trying for another baby too. I think since he didn't have any siblings as he was growing up, at least his son should right?" said Ginny, leaning against the kitchen doorframe.
"That's great. It took me a while before I got Andrew. Draco was so happy, Sophia not so much. I think it's because she knew that she wasn't going to be the only one anymore. But now she's cool with it." Said Hermione.
As Hermione turned around her locket glinted, catching both females' attention.
"Hermione what happened to your locket?" asked Jill, rubbing her tummy.
"Oh, Draco got three birthstones put in it. His is the biggest, then Sophia and then Andrew. Isn't beautiful. At first I thought I had lost it. Turns out that he had it." Said Hermione.
Soon it was dinnertime. Everyone came to the table and started helping themselves to the wonderful dinner before them. Hermione's meatloaf was great along with Ginny's potatoes. There was also corn, rolls, and green beans. For dessert Ginny had made lemon pie with lots of whipped cream. Hermione added yogurt to hers.
When dinner was over everyone, except the kids, went upstairs to a circular attic with a hard wood floor, couches, fluffy chairs, and a blow out entertainment center. It was like a hang out place. On the other side was wall to wall shelves of books. Draco had it put in during their first year of marriage. Hermione had popcorn made and some drinks in a cooler. Draco put in the movie that Hermione picked out for Ginny. Hermione had a box of yogurt on stand by.
"So did you get the movie?" asked Ginny when the lights went dim.
"Of course. I got your favourite one out of the three." Hermione whispered.
They were watching, Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. That was Ginny's all time favourite movie. (My sister got the special addition DVD for Christmas and we watched the cast commentary yesterday. It's really funny, if you have the DVD watch it! Every member is there!)
(Later that night)
Hermione was finished cleaning the dishes and Draco was tucking Sophia in. Hermione went to go and kiss her goodnight when she noticed a ting of pain in her lower back. Draco noticed and took her hand.
WARNING: I DON'T OWN WHAT'S COMING UP, I GOT IT FROM 'VANILLA DREAMS'
"Where are we going?" asked Hermione, holding back a yawn.
"To make you feel better." Said Draco, leading her into their room.
"I'm not in the mood tonight sweetie." Said Hermione.
"I know, here just lay down on your stomach."
Hermione gave him a questioning look. Draco understood what she meant and made a part of the bed sink in so she could comfortably lie down. Hermione took off her dress and relaxed a bit. Draco was searching around for something until he found it. He straddled Hermione's back and poured a bit of vanilla smelling oil on her back and began messaging. All of the tension was slowly releasing.
"Are you feeling any better now?" whispered Draco.
"A lot better thank you." Hermione said back.
While she was changing Draco fixed the bed and got changed too. They kissed good night and slept soundly.
