Chapter 17: Most Missed Employee
"Why won't it stop raining?" Draco asked from the seat in the taxi.
"Don't they teach you anything in school? It rains a lot in England." Henry said messing up Draco's hair.
"Dad, don't." Hermione watched as her son flattened her hair.
She was deep in thought when ever he called him dad she felt her heart flutter If only he knew. She had never told Draco who his real father was.
They came to a familiar hotel in Oxford. "I used to work here." Hermione stated.
"Yes Mommy worked as a waitress here."
"Cool! Can we go in?" Draco asked.
"This is where we are staying this week." Henry opened the car door opening his umbrella.
Hermione hurried under it holding Draco's hand.
They entered the lobby and Hermione ran up to the front desk. "Excuse me sir?" She asked the man.
"Can I help you ma'am?"
"I was wondering if there is still a café called Pierre Viansson, in the hotel?"
"Yes ma'am it's in the food court area."
"Yes I know, does Chantal Johnson still own it?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Great thank you!' Hermione ran down the hall not even bothering to call her family after her.
She stopped at the door and slowly opened it and peeked in. "Mommy is this where you used to work?" Draco asked catching his breath.
"Yup. Where'd your dad go?"
"He went to get us a room."
"Oh, well come on honey let's go in."
Draco nodded and smiled. Hermione knew that if Chantal saw him she wouldn't recognize him. He looked too much like his father. He had silver blue eyes and blonde hair, though it was more of a dirty blonde.
Hermione took Draco's hand and stepped into the familiar room. She turned to the wall where they hung the picture of employee of the month to find something very surprising. There on the wall in big gold letters it read: Most Missed Employee: Hermione Granger, forever and for always.
Then it showed a picture of her. "He, he mom your name is on the wall." Draco said with a slight giggle.
Hermione laughed too and turned around to find none other than Tom staring at her with his mouth wide open. "Hello Tom." She said suppressing a laugh.
"Hermione!" He yelled and jumped up squeezing her so tight she felt her ribs crack.
When he let go she saw Chantal standing there smiling broadly. "Tom, this is my son Draco." Hermione said putting her hands on Draco's shoulders.
"Hello Draco. Damn do you look a lot like your father." He said shaking Draco's hand.
Hermione was okay with people saying that because he looked a lot like Henry. For instance, Henry had creamy blonde hair and grey eyes as well. Perfect match.
"Draco this is Tom one of you mom's old friends. And that funny looking lady over there that is staring at us, that's Chantal, mommies old room mate."
"Hello Draco." Chantal said giving him a hug. "And hello little miss, I'll phone you when the baby is born, but not really."
"Sorry 'bout that, he was a very big surprise, middle of a job interview."
Chantal laughed and hugged Hermione, "I missed you!" She said. "Come up here, both of you. " Chantal said leading Hermione up to the front of the small café.
"Excuse me I am terribly sorry to interrupt but, as you can see on our wall that Miss Hermione Granger has been terribly missed over the past ten years, and it seems that she just suddenly showed up, so I would like to give Hermione, who left pregnant and came back with a child a big hand and a welcome home." With that she clapped along with everyone else in the café. Hermione smiled and looked over at the door where her very confused looking husband was standing.
When the clapping stop Hermione said "Actually I am not Miss Hermione Granger any more, I am Mrs. Hermione Woodstock, and my husband is standing over by the door." She stated pointing at Henry.
"Yes and Hermione we have to go if you want to see your brother today." He said smiling.
"Oh yes, my husband being the big business man he is has to go and open a drug store. So I will see you when I get back."
"Bye, 'Mione." Chantal said giving her another hug.
Hermione sat in the car feeling very happy about being home.
As they pulled up in the drive way of her brother Hermione felt a ping of regret, maybe I should have phoned? She told herself. She just shook herself out of it and said good-bye to her husband as he went to open up the shop. Hermione took her son and walked up to the front door and knocked.
"Hermione?" Charles said opening the door.
"Hey Char."
-Potter- /Weasley (Three hours earlier)
Harry, Ginny , Ron and Lavender sat at the kitchen table of the burrow watching the toddler girl sleeping in a ball on the table.
"I love it when she's quiet," Ginny whispered.
Ron nodded and looked up at the lock. "Look." She exclaimed pointing and Hermione's picture. It was at 'Arriving'.
"Oh Hermione's hand does lots of weird stuff, I think it's because she lives far away." Ginny said.
"How do you know she lives far away?" Ron whispered back.
"I don't." Ginny said sighing.
"What kind of weird stuff does it do?" Lavender asked.
"Well about two and a half months after she disappeared it was at 'In Pain'. And it's been at 'Marriage' and then the clock was telling us to get her name changed."
"Well maybe she was being tortured or something, then maybe she was getting married."
"I really don't think that's why she was in pain." Harry said looking at both Rona dn Ginny.
Ginny was trying to figure out what that meant when it hit her, she had the baby! I forgot about that. "No because it was on 'Marriage' before she had the baby." Ginny blurted out.
"Baby?" Lavender asked eyeing her accusingly.
"Um never mind, look Sarah is waking up." Ginny said.
And yes Sarah Weasley was indeed waking up. "Ronald can you come help me, I'm going to put her in her crib." Ron nodded and followed his wife out of the kitchen.
Ginny turned to Harry. "Do you really think Hermione got married?"
"I don't know, I just don't know."
A/N: OK I hoped that cleared up any questions that I was asked, hope you liked the chapter. And I know I sped through it, but my original plan was to have one chapter about Hermione getting pregnant with Malfoy and all that, but…well I got into it, and I was bored of it so I just began my original plan. Oh and You'll find out what Draco has been up to in the next couple of chapters. Okay Please Read and Review!!
