Hermione had been living in the tiny cottage for three months. Her stomach had swelled and she enjoyed running her hands over it. He did too. Hermione noticed that whenever Draco touched her stomach, it was very possessive.

Surprisingly, he had done nothing violent towards her at all since they had arrived.

One night they were lying in bed, and Hermione woke up when the blonde next to her started crying out in his sleep.

"Please don't take her too! You've taken everything Potter! Just please let me keep her. I can't loose her! I can't!"

Draco didn't seem to remember the next morning. Maybe he did, but he acted normal.

It was December 24th, and Hermione was sitting by the window, staring at the snow, which was falling softly.

"Christmas tomorrow." She whispered before straightening up. She looked sadly around the living room, which was bland. No holiday spirit at all. She shook her head and climbed the stairs. Draco heard their door close. He glanced around the room.

He had never thought about Christmas until Hermione had mentioned it. He put his book down and stretched. Perhaps he should make her first Christmas with him special.

When Hermione woke up the next morning, Draco was not in the bed. She yawned and placed a hand on her belly and smiled.

"Merry Christmas, darling." She whispered. She sighed. "Merry Christmas me." She lay there for another ten minutes before she got up and used the loo before padding down stairs. She gapped.

A massive tree stood by the fireplace, with glinting lights and beautiful ornaments. There were two small presents beneath the tree. A plate full of ginger bread cookies and milk sat on the coffee table. The fire was roaring and there was a pleasant smell of peppermint in the air.

Hermione was looking around trying to locate Draco when a snore made her look up.

Draco Malfoy was standing on a stepladder, his body hanging on a piece of tinsel. Hermione couldn't help the giggle that left her lips and Draco woke with a start, banging his head on the ceiling. The tinsel snapped at the movement and he, unbalanced, fell backwards.

Hermione covered her mouth with her hands as he hit his head on the coffee table, making the plate clatter. Hermione rushed to him and kneeled down, cradling his head in her lap.

"Ouch." Draco moaned. "Ooooouuuch." Hermione helped him to the couch and got him ice for his head, tucking a blanket in around him. Draco smirked to himself as she turned to go get him tea.

They sat on the sofa together, Hermione leaning on his chest and playing with a strand of her hair.

"Thank you." She said, leaning up and giving him a quick kiss on his startled lips. He leaned down to kiss her once again, but when he tried slipping his tongue in to her mouth she pushed him away. "Don't get too carried away." He pouted.

She looked at the presents. He noticed and summoned them.

"These are for you." He said.

"I didn't get you anything. I couldn't have.' Hermione said. Draco shrugged.

"Open." She did.

"Oh Draco!" She whispered, lifting the silver necklace and charm bracelet from the boxes. Draco's heart fluttered. It was the first time she had ever used his name.

Draco clasped the necklace around her perfect neck and Hermione fingered the amber gem that was attached to it. She studied the bracelet and saw a tiny charm of a dragon wrapped around a princess. She chuckled and elbowed him softly.

"I have one more gift for you." Draco said, and pulled her off the couch. He covered her eyes and led her out the back door, which he unlocked quickly.

Hermione shivered as cold hit her. She gasped as the hands were removed and she was outside for the first time in nearly four months. She laughed and twirled around and around. Draco stared at her beautiful flushed face.

When both finally got too cold they hurried back inside. Draco carefully locked the door behind them with complicated spells.

Hermione looked at Draco. Perhaps… Just this once… she would give herself to him willingly.

She took his hand and made her face him. He looked at her in surprise as she kissed him slowly.

"This is you Christmas gift." She whispered. "Make the most of it because it is not happening again."

She wrapped her arms around his neck, standing on her tiptoes. Draco grinned into her mouth as his felt his child kick. Her stomach was against his.

He kissed her deeper, and her eyes widened in response. Draco lifted her up, so that her legs were wrapped around his waist.

Hermione wrapped her arms around him as he lowered her onto the couch. He stroked her cheek gently before leaning down and kissing her throat. Hermione gasped at the sensation. He had never done this before. He trailed his lips down her collarbone before he lifted her jumper over her head and attacked her breasts.

"Draco!" She gasped, and he shivered. "I need you! I need you!" Draco moaned and shed their pants. He entered her swiftly and for the fist time, Hermione felt pleasure. He thrust lovingly, not at all like before.

For the first time, Hermione had an orgasm as he came.

Draco snuggled into her side and buried his head in her neck.

"Thank you." He whispered.

"It's not happening again." Despite herself she smiled softly. Draco pouted.

"I know." He placed a hand on her stomach. "I know." The baby kicked and Draco stuck his tongue out. "Hey there. Your mother is really stern."

"Hey!"

"But I hope you find a girl as pretty." Hermione rolled her eyes.

"How do you know my baby is going to be a boy?"

"Gut feeling."

"What if it is a girl?"

"It won't be." Hermione shook her head and pulled her clothes back on.

"What do you want for breakfast?"

Harry Potter looked awful. There were big circles beneath his eyes and he looked even thinner than he had months ago.

They still hadn't found Hermione and he was distraught. There was a nock on his door and he looked up.

Luna entered with a message in her hands. She handed it to Harry.

"Draco Malfoy was sighted in a French village buying jewelry. An auror who was on holiday saw him. We think Hermione might be somewhere in that area."

Harry stared at her before he leapt up and twirled her around.

"Thank you Luna! Oh thank you!"

A/N: Yay! So I'm sorry for the short chapter. I promise I will try to make them longer. Do you think the baby should be a boy or a girl? Maybe twins? I don't know! Please Review! It would mean a lot.
