Chapter 19
Hermione and Draco pulled up outside Granger Mansion, they were in the back of the Malfoy's town car, and Gerard was the driver for that day.
"Thank you Gerry" Draco said as he got out and gave Gerard a tip. Draco carried both his and Hermione's bags inside and set then at the bottom of the stairs.
"Mum, dad" Hermione called, there was no answer
"MUM, DAD" she called louder
"Hermione" called Libby Granger as she rushed out of the living room hugging her daughter as she met her "How was the honey moon?" she questioned
"Fine, thanks" Draco said "My parents here?"
"Yes, come" she said walking back to the living room "Your are aware that your to go back to Hogwarts tonight, so we don't have long to catch up"
"Tonight, I thought it was tomorrow were going back?" Draco said alarmed
"No, tonight, in a few hours your expected back. You will floo to Dumdledore's office and then go to your rooms, tomorrow you will be able to see your house mates and go to class, maybe that's where you got confused, dear"
"Draco, 'Mione" Lucius, Narcissa and Charles said at once when they saw the newly weds. They all hugged them.
"How was the muggle world, Draco" Narcissa asked her son over tea
"Fine, yeah, really different" he said looking at Hermione
"So tell me what did you do?" Charles asked
"We went bowling, ate pizza, flamingo land, cinema, watched TV and DVD's, got a McDonalds, the whole 9 yards" Hermione said
"Very good film" added Draco, Narcissa and Lucius had no idea what they were talking about, but nodded and smiled all the same
"So, Draco, have you had any thought about what to tell your housemates?" Libby asked
"Not, yet when we go see Dumbledore ill get advice" he answered her. They continued to talk for a few hours until it was time to say goodbye, they agreed to meet at the beginning of the Christmas holidays, to spend it together. The elder Malfoy's and Grangers were inseparable these days, but they wanted their children there with them.
Hermione and Draco flooed to Dumbledore's office, he was waiting for them.
"Mr. Malfoy, Mrs. Malfoy" He greeted
"Professor" they greeted back
"How was the holiday period?"
"Great professor, totally muggle" Hermione commented
"Well, welcome back. I have some news for you both, please do sit" and they did "well, since you are head students, there are many things to discuss during the prefects meetings, a list has been kept for you by professor Snape, he has sportingly agreed to over see the meetings, but you two have to initiate the list of things to do at the next meeting tomorrow night." he said "Well, also I have left the decision up to you to tell your friends about the marriage, Mr. Potter, Mr. and Miss Weasley know but they have kept it a secret for you to break it to all your housemates and the whole student body. The professors already know about it."
"Also, I wanted to discuss arrangements, lunch time mainly. The professors will understand if you want to sit together during the classes you share, but at lunch time it will be difficult, there is no rule to say you cannot sit at other tables so it is up to you how those arrangements are carried out"
"I think ill sit at the Slytherin table, for a change," Hermione said surprising Draco.
"Very well, good night" he dismissed the two to their private rooms.
They walked hand in hand to their dorm, they entered and it seemed like ages since they had last been there, not a week. But they immediately saw that there was one difference, there wasn't two bedrooms, there was just one, a huge king size double bed in a room where both of their individual rooms once was.
"AGG Draco put me down what are you doing?" Hermione screeched as Draco picked her up
"Over the threshold" he said carrying her to the bed room, slamming the door shut with his foot.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The next day came too quickly for the pair. It was the end of September, which meant Quidditch season. Draco would be seeing less of Hermione since he would have to work hard to beat Gryffindor this year.
Hermione and Draco walked down the corridor to the great hall, it was 8am and they knew that at that time it would be buzzing with students, all blissfully unaware of the marriage they was about to be told about. Draco held Hermione's hand, as they got closer to the hall. She had sent Harry, Ron and Ginny a owl that night and explained they was back and she would be sitting at the Slytherin table, she thanked them for not saying anything to anyone, they wanted to do it. She told them that she and Draco had a lovely time and that she liked him very much. They all owled her back saying that they was happy for her, even Ron said that he was glad she was happy, even if it was with Draco Malfoy.
They walked through the doors and made their way to the Slytherin table, slowly everyone on all four tables stopped their business and looked at them, Hermione and Draco saw many shocked faces. They sat at the Slytherin table, Draco always had his own spot and no one ever dared to sit in his place, so there was room for him and Hermione to sit down.
"May we help you, mudblood" Pansy asked as Hermione sat down and put her small hand on the top of Draco's thigh. They both had their little spots where they publicly touched each other, but never teased. Draco put his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him.
"Parkinson, don't call her that," Draco said through gritted teeth
"She is, and I asked you a question"
"Hermione is sat here because I want to eat breakfast with my wife" Draco said kissing Hermione's cheek
"EEEHHH she's your wife, your flipping wife" she shrieked, and surly enough everyone in the hall heard her say wife. They all knew, even the first years that Draco and Hermione must be married.
"Yes, we married on the 21st, we have just had our honeymoon" Hermione said
"Oh my god" Pansy was speechless for the first time in her life. "You're married, how can you be married? What about us?"
"I didn't think there was anything going on between us Puggingson" Hermione said trying to look playfully hurt. Which seemed to work. Pansy huffed and looked down at her plate
"Draco what about me?" Pansy begged
"What about you? I'm sure you'll find some one else to make life miserable for"
"Draco..but your parents wont they-"
"They were there" Draco said
"Yeah Narcissa helped with the flowers, the dress and everything my mother did" Hermione said looking smug. Pansy let out another shriek and went back to looking down at her plate.
"What would you like for breakfast darling?" Draco asked in a sickly sweet voice trying to annoy the Slytherins who were watching
"Same as you please" she replied feeling embarrassed by all the attention she was getting. Draco sensed she was uncomfortable
"Get back to what you were doing" He snapped at the whole hall, the teachers didn't stop him, they just carried on eating. Slowing everyone in the hall returned to eating and talking, although their conversations weren't about what they was before.
Before leaving the hall for their first lesson back Draco walked to the front of the hall. Dumbledore nodded and smiled
"HEY" Draco shouted, the hall went dead "HERMIONE AND MYSELF ARE MARRIED, AND THATS THE WAY ITS STAYING, SO NO MORE GOSSIPING, NO MORE MUDBLOOD COMMENTS, OR YOULL HAVE TO DEAL WITH ME" he said before walking back to his table to get his books and Hermione. He draped an arm around his wife and they both left the hall.
"She's going to pay, no one steals Draco Malfoy from me" Pansy said to herself as she left too with many other students leaving as well.
