Hi everyone! Sorry about the long wait. I moved last weekend and everything has been so hectic. My computer was just set up on Saturday, I'm so sorry.

"Draco are you completely sure?" Hermione asked when Draco told her the news.

"Yes love and I'm sorry. Seeing as it's 1:30 I should be home around 12 o'clock. I promise." Said Draco, typing as quick as he could.

"Ok. I'll let you finish your work then I guess. Bye." Said Hermione, hanging up the phone.

Mrs. Carmicle walked into Draco's office with three sheets of paper. It was a list of people who needed some business cards but couldn't go get them.

"Can you hand these to the card shop before you drop off your article?" she asked, putting the papers on his desk.

"I will. Do you want me to pick up the papers you wanted copied or will you get them yourself?" asked Draco, not looking up from his work.

"I'll get them on my way home. Great job with all the work." Said Mrs. Carmicle, walking out to talk to Norton.

Draco finished his article shortly and then went off to do the stuff in the folder. And the new business cards he had to get printed. This might take longer than he thought along with the new work of picking up already ordered lunches in Hogsmeade.

Ginny walked in with the kids as Hermione was cleaning off another table.

"Mumma!" Exclaimed Sophia, jumping into her mother's arms.

" Hello my angel. Did you have a good day?" asked Hermione, kissing her cheek.

Sophia nodded and jumped down. Hermione also said hello to the others.

"Thanks so much Gin. How about you guys stay for lunch?" said Hermione, pointing to the clean booth.

"No problem. And I would say that I'm pretty hungry." Said Ginny, placing her son in the middle of the two girls on one side and by herself on the other.

"Ok, I'll be right back to take your orders then." Said Hermione, giving them the menus and crayons.

" Those are just the cutest kids I have ever laid my eyes on." Said Betty, cleaning the counter.

"Yeah, Phil looks so much like Harry it's creepy. Ella looks and acts like Jill and Sophia is without a thought Draco's daughter. She looks like him and when she gets upset she even acts like him." said Hermione with a smile.

(Daily Prophet)

"Thanks so much Draco, I was starving!" said Norton, Draco's last delivery.

Draco had just ran out and picked up everyone's lunch orders including his own. But when was he going to have the time to eat it? As soon as he was done with part of the errands, more were added to it. Some were just ridiculous.

"We need three more ink bands for the typewriters upstairs. Can you go get some and pick up a few papers for everyone to read. Here's the money, I want change back." Said Mrs. Carmicle.

"Yes ma'am. The cards should be here by next week. And my article is already sent in." said Draco, accepting the money.

"Very good. Please be off, no place here to waist time." She said, off to bother the other client doing chores.

"Jeez Draco, you must have done something wrong to have to do all these errands. Not even my mum makes me do all this stuff, and she needs a lot." Said Norton, who hasn't even finished his article yet.

"Well I guess that's the way things are around here. Well I best be off." Said Draco, running to the elevator.

The day went by long and slow for both of the Malfoy's. After the kids ate lunch, Ginny took them to a movie with Ron, Ella, Harry and little baby Lucia. Hermione stayed at work and did a few more things before having to take a rest.

"Are you sure you're alright. Maybe you should take more breaks, I wouldn't want to be the cause of a stressed labor." Said Betty, giving Hermione water.

"I'm fine. I've been feeling like this for a few days now. It's like pre contractions. Nothing serious, I promise." Hermione stated, feeling her midsection. Andrew kicked a few times and remained still.

(1:55 pm, Malfoy home)

Hermione was sleeping on the couch with Sophia next to her watching cartoons. Draco walked in quietly not wanting to bother them. He came over and picked Sophia up and kissed her cheek lightly.

"Daddy?" Sophia responded drowsily, putting her arms around his neck for support.

Draco carried her upstairs to her bed and tucked her in gently before going back to his wife. He kissed her forehead lightly, in hopes that she would wake up. Hermione's eyes fluttered open and she sprung up.

"Oh Draco I missed you. Why are you so late?" asked Hermione checking the wall clock.

"I'm sorry, I had a lot more to do than I expected. I took Sophia up already. Is everything alright with you?" asked Draco, placing a hand on Hermione's belly.

"Well I feel a little weird but I'm ok. Just pre contractions and not so much movement." Said Hermione.

Draco lifted up Hermione's chin , looked into her eyes for a moment and then kissed her romantically. Hermione allowed entrance and embraced him. Soon they pulled apart, breathing irregularly.

"I almost forgot what it was like being away from you." Draco stated with a smirk.

Hermione smiled and took his hand. They went upstairs and went to bed. The next day was Saturday, no work for either of them. The next day they decided to spend time with Sophia.

"What are we doing today?" asked Sophia, swallowing her cream of wheat.

"Anything you want. Today is your day." Said Hermione, giving Draco some more orange juice.

Sophia thought for a moment and then shouted happily, "Whale Island!" (It's the same as New York's Coney Island, with all the rides and beaches. Not real, I made it up myself.)

"Ok Sophia. After you get ready and us too, we'll take you to Whale Island." Said Draco, smiling at the smile on their daughter's face.

Sophia quickly ate and ran upstairs. Hermione went to help her while Draco stayed behind to clean up.

"Well, let me see. I think I know some spells to make all of this go easier." Draco said aloud, racking his brain for the correct spells.

"ah! Glassacious incantartum clearous!" said Draco and the dishes moved to the sink and washed themselves while Draco went upstairs.

Soon the Malfoy family was ready for their day of fun. They took Draco's newly bought Toyota truck. Soon they arrived, everything was noisy and sweet smells filled the air.

"Sophia do you want your stroller or do you feel like walking?" Draco asked, before they walked away from the car.

Sophia chose her stroller and they set off. The first ride was the Merry-go-round.

"Mumma and daddy can I go on again!" Sophia asked excitedly, her smile wide.

Hermione looked at Draco and smiled, this time the whole family went on. After that Sophia wanted some cotton candy so they bought her some. While Draco and Sophia got on the ferris wheel because Hermione wouldn't let her go on alone, "I'm not letting my child go that high on a ride in which I can't save her!"

"Hi mumma!" Sophia called happily over the rail at the very top.

"Hey sweetie! Hi Draco!" Hermione called back.

Draco waved back with a smile. When the ride was over Hermione suggested that they get on the spinning tea cups. Sophia by now had a sticky pink goo all over her face. On the ride Andrew kicked a lot, either because he was happy or because he was sick. Either way, Hermione felt extremley uncomfortable but she didn't let anyone know. It was probably pre labor pains.

By mid-noon Draco and Hermione thought that Sophia would be too tired to continue with the day. But they were completely wrong. Sophia was even more full of energy than she was that morning. They went on at least 12 more rides!

"Come on you guys, we haven't gone to the petting farm yet!" Sophia exclaimed while running in that direction.

Draco took Hermione's hand and laced it with his. Hermione looked over and smiled, she was just remembering when she and Draco went on a date to a carnival and they went to a petting zoo. Draco was confused about the animals.

"And may I please ask what's so funny Miss Hermione?" Draco asked, wondering about the faint smile.

"Oh nothing. Just about our date to the carnival by my parents' house." Hermione said, kissing his lips softly.

The rest of the day went by smoothly. Hermione's pains didn't come back until they were on the road again going home. That was 30 minutes after the last one. See nothing to worry about.

Finally when they got home Sophia wanted to take a nap, Draco took her up and read her a story while Hermione made tea. Soon Draco came down, his arms wrapped warmly around Hermione's large midsection.

"Hi sweetie. Do you want some also?" Hermione asked, not turning around.

"No thanks. It's too nice a day to stay inside, I think I'm going to work on a play table and chairs for Sophia." Draco said kissing Hermione's neck and ear.

"Are you really? No magic or anything?" Hermione asked, turning around.

"Well maybe magic so that I don't kill myself. But mostly without it, well I better get to it. Call me if you need anything." Draco said, running outside to his shed.

Hermione smiled and went upstairs to her library with her tea. Soon her mother called in the middle of reading the book 'Under the Tucson Sun'.

"Hi mum! I'm sorry I haven't called in a while. Is something up?" Hermione asked, marking her book page.

"No everything's alright, I just haven't heard from you in a while. Is Sophia available?" Daphnie asked.

"She just went down for a nap a little while ago. We took her to 'Whale Island' and I guess that blew her out." Hermione said, taking a sip of tea.

"Is Draco available, I really need to speak with him." She asked again.

Hermione was starting to think she'd been left out of something.

"No mum, he's out in his shed. I can go get him for you. Or you could call him on his cell phone, I'm sure he has it." Hermione answered back.

"Ok thank you dear. And if you need anything, absolutely anything don't hesitate to call me. I'll do anything for you." Daphnie said.

"Ok mum. I'll let you get back to your business now. Bye." Hermione ended hanging up the phone.

Hermione gave it no more thought and got back to her reading.

(Draco)

"She's in the house. I'm sorry, but I needed to get out." Draco said, almost hammering his finger.

"Well shouldn't you be watching over your wife or better yet my daughter. This is her due date, do you really think she should be left alone! And plus she has to watch your daughter too! Don't make me come over there!" Daphine shouted.

"I'm sorry. Yes I know I should be in there but I don't want to crowd her. But I'll do what you want. But I'm staying downstairs." Draco said putting his stuff away.

"That's better. Now get in there and make sure that she's comfortable!" Daphnie stated, hanging up sharply.

Draco walked back into the house with his tail between legs and his head low. He went to check on Hermione and found her asleep on the poofs on the floor quite soundly. He got her a blanket and went back downstairs to nap.

(20 min later)

Hermione sat up quickly holding her stomach, in her sleep there had been sharp pains but none quite this bad. Between the last one and this one it had been 15 min. Hermione went to the bathroom to cool her face, but her water broke. Now she was in trouble.

"Draco! Draco! Help!" Hermione said from the top of the steps.

Draco cursed under his breath and rushed to his wife.

"Hermione what's wrong? Is everything alright?" Draco asked, checking her over with his eyes.

"No. My water just broke. I'm going to have our son any moment." Hermione said, placing her hands on her stomach with a smile.

"He's coming! I'm going to have a son!" Draco exclaimed.

"Yes sweetie. Shh, we have to call someone for Sophia. Then they can meet us later. And I have to…Ow! Ow! Freaking ow! Another contraction!" Hermione said, trying to breathe.

" Breathe Hermione. I'll call Pansy, she can come to the center later. Go pack your stuff and I'll call everyone." Draco said, helping Hermione up.

Draco called everyone in their phone book. Pansy showed up in their fireplace with Cassandra.

"Hey. Is Hermione alright?" Pansy asked, placing a baby bag on the couch.

"Apparently not so well. It just happened so quickly. We'll call you when it's alright to bring her over. Thank you so much for doing this." Draco said.

"It's no problem. You guys are my friends and Cassandra just enjoys playing with Sophia. I'll take good care of her." Said Pansy.

Hermione rushed past them with a wave and a smile.

"I'll see you later. Bye." Draco said, rushing after Hermione.

(Birthing Center)

"Well Hermione, get comfortable. You only dilated 2 cm. I'm sorry." Said Dr. Olsen.

Hermione let out a sigh and took Draco's hand. They were in for a long wait.

A/N: HEY PEOPLE. I'M SO SORRY FOR THE HORRIBLE WAIT. I WAS MOVING LAST WEEKEND AND MY COMPUTER WAS JUST SET UP WITH INTERNET ON Saturday. HOPE THIS CHAPTER WAS WORTH IT.
