Hermione's POV
The last few Death Eaters surrendered, giving up their wands, as Moody and Lupin snapped them all, before tying them up with Anti-Disapparation spells. Draco appeared, holding Harry's unconscious body in his arms. He handed Harry to Ron, as I ran towards, exploding with joy and leapt into his arms, wrapping my arms around his neck
"I'm still alive," he said
"I know and I rather you stay that way"
He grinned and kissed me on the lips, before taking me back home
The battle was over. The remaining Death Eaters had been rounded up and sent back to Azkaban without a trial. Harsh, I know, but I felt they deserved it. Snape was also sent there, as the Dementor guards were reposted, which was good enough for me. Snape being in prison with Dementors was like burning in Hell for him. I was happy. I spent a few days in St. Mungo's, recovering along with several others of the Order. Surprisingly, not one member of the Order had died. Draco came in and visited every day. I was discharged after making a full recovery, but Harry, still unconscious, remained
I returned back to Grimmauld's Place with Draco and Ginny. Everyone was there and we celebrated, but we toasted for Harry's recovering. I smiled when even Draco toasted and I kissed him in view of Ron and Ginny, but I didn't care. I was with him and that's final
A few weeks later, we were all sitting around, when I heard the portrait of Sirius' mother screaming her head. Thinking nothing of it, I snuggled back against Draco's arm, until I heard a voice over the portrait's voice
"Shut your damn face, you old hag. If you scream anymore while I'm around and I'll demolish the wall where you sit and replace it"
The screaming stopped. I jumped up and ran out in the hallway, where Harry was there, grinning from ear to ear. I ran up and hugged him, probably squeezing the life out of him, but oh well
"Welcome back," I whispered
"Ah, it's good to be home. Hey Ron and Draco"
I turned around and saw them waiting. Ron shook Harry's hand first. I nudged Draco in the ribs and he winced, but he sauntered over and shook Harry's hand as well
"Thanks for getting rid of the Horcrux when you did," said Harry, "it helped"
"It wasn't easy; the damn snake tried to eat me, until I grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed it in the head"
"Ah well, you get that. I did the same thing to a Basilisk and if you think that fighting against a large snake is hard, mate, you haven't seen tough yet"
"Yeah, yeah, I get the point"
I smiled, as Harry walked past to surprise everyone else. I went up to Draco and hugged him. He hugged me back
"What shall we do now, Hermione?" he asked
"We could go to the beach"

A few months had passed and I was sitting in the lounge room, talking to Ginny
"So, you and Draco are a couple now?" she asked
"Pretty much"
"Uh-huh"
"What about you and Harry?"
"He's taking his time recovering"
I grinned, but suddenly felt sick and doubled over
"Hermione, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, guess it's the excitement of planning my wedding"
"Well, take it easy"
"Yeah, okay"
Nope, the sickness intensified and I was racing towards the bathroom, where I threw up in the toilet. I groaned, as Ginny joined
"Are you sure you're okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," I said, waving my hand, "Just a little sick"
"Uh-huh"
She opened a cabinet and pulled something out, handing it to me. I looked at it
"What's this?"
"A pregnancy test"
"Ha, ha, I don't need-"
I cut off as I threw up again
"Okay, I'll take it"
Ginny left the bathroom, as I take the test and waited patiently. The strip turned blue. I checked the box and dropped it, going back out
"Well, what did it say?"
"I'm pregnant"
"What?"
"I'm pregnant"
"Well, off you go, tell Draco, come on"
She grabbed my hand and dragged me towards Draco's room, pushing me inside and shutting the door. Draco looked up questioning
"Yes?"
"I have something to tell you"
"What?"
"Draco, I'm pregnant"
"What?" he said, getting up
"We're going to be parents"
He looked at me, then smiled, wrapping me up in a hug
"Hermione, this is amazing. This is the best news you've told me"
He placed an ear against my stomach, trying to hear anything, but to no avail
"How many months?"
"I'm not sure, but probably a few"
Draco picked me up and spun me around the room
"This is wonderful. I can't believe it. A baby on the way"
"I know, Draco," I said, resting my head on his chest, "It is wonderful"

Draco's POV
I was overjoyed when Hermione told me we were going to be parents. I mean, sure we're a bit young, but I was going to be a father
But as I stood there in my room, holding Hermione close to me, I felt a sinking feeling in my chest, like my heart was made of lead. I pulled Hermione back and looked at her
"What's wrong?"
"Hermione, I am over the moon you're having a baby, but there's one problem"
"What?"
"My father is still alive. He flew during the battle"
"What haven't you told me this?"
"I wasn't expecting something like this to happen"
Hermione broke away and walked over to my bed, staring out the window
"What are you going to do about it?"
"I have to find him and I have to finish him"
Hermione whirled around, her eyes blazing
"Are you crazy, are you even thinking? Your father will kill you"
"He's just as much as my father as Harry is"
"Oh yeah, you think that will help," Hermione scoffed
"Hermione, if I don't kill him now or send him to Azkaban, he's going to make our lives hell. I have to do this"
I walked around her and wrapped my arms around her
"I don't know how long I'll be gone, but hopefully I'll be back in time for the birth"
She was looking away from me. I tilted her face up and kissed her
"I'm sorry, Hermione, but I do love you and once this is over, we can be together probably. A wedding a few more children"
"Fine"
She kissed me and I grabbed my wand, tucking it into my belt, before grabbing my sword and sheathing it. I looked at Hermione for possibly the last time before leaving the room and heading downstairs
"Hey, where are you going?" asked Ginny
"Only Hermione knows and she understands what I have to do"
"You're running away because she's pregnant, right?"
"No, I am joyed that she's pregnant. It's just I have something to take care of before the baby is born"
With that, I opened the door and left the house, going out onto the street and looking around. The wind whipped through my hair and I stood there, arms spread out, enjoying what could be my last moments on Earth, before turning on the spot and disappearing
