"You ready honey" Hermione cooed to Daniel as she fastened his coat and popped his hat on his head. He nodded back. "Can you help mummy put her hat on?" Daniel took her cream hat and slowly sunk it onto her head and then wiped the curls out of her face. He smiled at her, causing her to laugh and pick him up and kiss him.
"Come then little man, let's go and find Draco"
"No need I'm here" Draco called as he walked into the foyer putting on his scarf. "Are we ready to go?" Hermione and Daniel nodded. Draco picked up his house keys and wallet before holding the door open for the others.
"I thought we would go the muggle way today and take the bus or train what do you think? Both are just down the road. "
"That sounds a wonderful idea Draco." Hermione replied putting Daniel on her hip and taking his hand.
They trudged down to the end of the drive, snow crunching underneath their boots. Draco started to hum Christmas songs. Hermione laughed at him.
"Hey why are you laughing at me? He pouted but then pulled a funny face causing Hermione and Daniel to laugh at him more.
"Nothing Draco doesn't worry" Hermione replied innocently though sniggering. Draco went back to humming again although he could hear the woman next to him almost cracking up with trying to keep quiet. Daniel however didn't get the hint and was giggling every time Draco looked away from them.
Draco stopped humming and sighed. Hermione's gloved hand felt warm encased in his own and he rubbed his thumb up and down hers subconsciously.
"Jingle bells Draco smells Hermione is super cool. Daniel is adorable and has really cool shoes hey! " Hermione sung, causing Draco to whirl around. Hermione started to laugh and she put Daniel down as they run away. Draco sighed. They sniggered at him when he hummed jingle bells and then she sings a version taking the Mick out of him.
"You know that doesn't make any sense" he called to them before throwing a snowball in their direction
"Actually I think it is a pretty good version so far. Of course it is a work in progress. "Hermione replied cheekily before picking up Daniel again who was playing in the snow. Draco shook his head at them before taking her hand again. They had reached the bus stop. Hermione though had decided to keep singing her little version of jingle bells much to Daniel's amusement and Draco annoyance.
"Jingle bells Draco smells and makes good waffles. They are very tasty all covered in syrup and chocolate!"
"Oh dear. That one was worse than the other one."
"Oh I could go all day with this one draco dear. Couldn't I Daniel darling!" Daniel nodded his head as they saw the bus pull up. The doors slowly opened. "Ready sweetheart. 1...2...3 wee up we go" Hermione called as he helped Daniel up swinging him on her arms causing him to giggle. "Do you want to give your money to the bus driver?"
Daniel handed over the gold and silver coins to the driver who smiled at him.
"There we go darling lets go and sit down. Jingle bells, slytherin smells, Gryffindor rules. Red is best better than the rest. Green is not so cool" Hermione sat down and placed Daniel firmly on her lap. There was only another person on the bus and that was an old lady sitting a couple of rows in front on the other side.
"Right guys "Draco said but before he could say anything Hermione went back into song again with Daniel clapping along and laughing.
"Oh jingle bells draco smells. Daniel is cute. He beat Draco at a snowball match and covered him in snow woo" Hermione laughed and even Draco chuckled at that one. He had fun playing with Daniel in the snow. Draco then smirked. He knew a way to get Hermione back.
"Jingle bells Hermione smells, she isn't super cool, Gryffindor sucks, their colour is yuck and she's a know it all" Draco sang swished his arms about like he was conducting an orchestra. Daniel started to snort with how much he was laughing. Hermione looked at Draco with a mock glare before laughing.
Daniel got down and started to walk up the aisle.
"Daniel honey is careful for mummy, I want you to hold on the pole there alright?" the little boy nodded as he slowly made his was down the bus looking out of the window. He waved at the old woman.
"Hello there little one" she cooed back. She then turned her head to Hermione and Draco "he's adorable, I remember when my son was his age."
"Thank you. He is he" Hermione cocked her head to one side with a small smile on her face.
"What's your name then?" the old woman asked Daniel. He looked at her and then at his mummy again.
"His name is Daniel" Draco replied. "He can't talk but he understands everything that you tell him"
"Oh that a shame" the old woman replied and looked back at Daniel. "Well hello Daniel, I'm Maud. How old are you?" Daniel showed up four fingers on his hand.
"Wow Four! That means that you are a big boy now aren't you. Are you looking forward to christmas?"
Daniel nodded his head excitedly and then pointed at the old lady
"Am I?" he nodded "well yes I am. I get to spend it with my little boy and girl and their little boys and girls" Daniel smiled before waving goodbye and walking back to his mummy and daddy
"He is sweet. It's a shame that he can't talk"
"Yes but he is a character enough. You can tell what he is saying through so many different ways." Hermione chuckled
"You are a very good father" the old woman said as the bus came to a stop. Hermione didn't know what to say to the old woman
"Thank you. This is our stop I'm afraid. Daniel say goodbye to this lady here. I hope you have a lovely Christmas. Merry christmas" Draco said as he picked up Daniel. Hermione was close behind.
"Merry Christmas" the woman called "I hope Father Christmas brings everything you want"
"I hope so too" Hermione said.
The trio stood outside a book shop in a street near the leaky cauldron. They waved to the bus and the old woman.
"Well come on you two we don't want you to get cold" Draco said starting to walk but stopped when he realised that Hermione wasn't following him.
"Mia?" he saw her with her nose pressed against the glass.
"My book. They sell my book" she said with awe. Draco looked where she was pointing. There it was with a positively slytherin green cover with silver writing on the front. Draco smirked. It was called deception.
"What's it about?"
"Ah you will need to read it find out, Draco"
"I've read some of your other books" Draco replied defiantly. Hermione arched her eyebrow at him.
"What I have. I remember when all of those stories penned by Fianna hermonica grange circled the school. It wasn't hard to figure out they were you. Your middle name is fianna and you slightly changed your first name."
"How do you know my middle name?" Draco then looked sheepish. He wouldn't dare tell her that he used to have a crush on her when he was at school. He relished the fact that she was head girl with him although she left school after two months. Which he realised now was because she was pregnant with Daniel. He remembered getting Ginny drunk with blaise. Ginny then blurted out everybody's secrets including her own. This included Hermione's Spanish middle name as her mother was called fianna.
"Well draco I'm waiting" Hermione said tapping her foot.
"Um... well... in seventh year just after you left i was depressed and so ginny, blaise, harry adn i all got a bit drunk and ginny showed us a picture of you her and her mother when you went to spain one year. I don't know and Ginny then decided to tell us all about you and how your middle name is fianna, how you can speak about seven languages etc. She was pretty pissed and blaise kept going on about how he wanted a piece of your mother etc. It was kind of gross." Hermione looked a little shocked but then laughed.
"Blaise is an ass malfoy I don't know how your friends with him. " Hermione replied. Draco looked relived although he didn't her that Ginny had spurted about every little piece of Hermione's love life she could including her crush on Draco when Ginny found a picture of Hermione with Ron. He could hear the redhead's voice in his head now.
"She didn't like my brother the way he liked her. I don't blame her to be honest. I knew though that she had a secret crush on you malfoy. It was just natural...Hermione always went against the norm. Ooo look theirs me and harry dancing"
"Well come on then let's go Christmas shopping" Hermione said walking towards the leaky cauldron leaving Draco still staring at the book. Draco jolted out of his memory of Ginny and ran after her.
