Draco's eyes met Hermione's and she smiled before whimpering again and he squeezed her hand rubbing his thumb across her skin and her whimpering became more subdued and she smiled again. Instantly her friends went on the offensive.

"I can't believe you Hermione. Our best friend screwing the enemy." Harry's words stung but Hermione had known they would. She had expected it. It was Ginny's words that really hurt.

"Wow Hermione. I am supposed to be your sister. We tell each other everything and you didn't have the balls to tell me this. I asked you for weeks and months what was going on with you and you never even told me. Some sister you are." Instantly Hermione began to cry. Draco watched her for a moment unsure of what to do before he wiped her tears away whispering in her ear very softly. Her friends watched in amazement as she instantly calmed down.

Taking a deep breath she softly said, "Please let me explain. I know...you don't think I don't deserve it...but please."

Her friends were silent for a long moment before they nodded. Hermione began to launch into the story obviously not telling them about there private and physical moments but everything else, and instantly saw looks of guilt from Ron and Lavender and looks of surprise then hurt from Harry and Ginny. She continued on telling them everything even about Draco's dad. When she got to that part Harry's mouth dropped in surprise before shutting it. Finally she finished and there was silence. Ginny was the first to speak."Mione?" Hermione looked up hopefully. Ginny made her way to the bed and gave her friend a gentle hug before Ginny said, "I forgive you."

Harry and Ron began to argue with her until Ginny cut them off.

"Ron you were screwing Lavender like a month after you guys broke up. Lavender you were a total bitch to Hermione for months on end and Harry she didn't do anything wrong." When they tried to argue again she cut them off again.

"She was going through hell. Draco was there. Yes we would've been too, but still. There's no law that says Hermione can't date. She can be with whoever she wants regardless who it is. Draco has been everything a boyfriend should be to her and obviously has changed for the better and I'm willing to forgive Hermione remembering," here she stopped looking meaningfully at the group, "That we've been friends for years. It's not worth throwing away that kind of friendship. If you still need convincing why don't you remember how a few of you have already almost tossed out our friendship and how bad it felt."

Hermione began to cry again before clutching Ginny who smiled and hugged her back. Hermione began apologizing over and over and Ginny shook her head and waved her hand dismissively. Harry and Ron came to the bed and Lavender followed. No one spoke for a long time until finally the group said they forgave her but that they still didn't like Malfoy and it would take time for them to accept it. Nodding Hermione hugged her friends before crying out loudly. Instantly everyone stood back and Madam Pompfrey came through the group saying if they wanted to stay they'd be silent.

They moved back and watched as she conjured a chair for Draco who put it as close to the bed as possible then put his knees in the chair and leaned over. He was right next to Hermione now. He was holding her hand and smoothing her hair all the while saying comforting things and Hermione was trying not to cry. She began to feel something again and whimpered loudly until Madam Pompfrey told her what was happening.

"Hermione, you need to push."

Looking at Draco she pushed with all her might biting her lip so hard she drew blood. Following instructions she began to push again never taking her eyes off Draco. He leaned in and kissed her ignoring the gasps he heard behind him and whispered, "You can do it Hermione. I love you."

Hearing more gasps he rolled his eyes before seeing Hermione smile before whispering, "A love outside the common room. " Nodding Draco squeezed again before they heard Madam Pompfrey say she needed one more big push. Locking eyes with Draco once more she whispered to him.

"I love you Draco!" Then she pushed with everything she had and couldn't help the yell that escaped her.

They heard a cry and smiled. Hermione slumped on the pillows and Draco planted small kisses all over her face. They heard the room bustling about put paid no mind to it. They only saw each other. Kissing her soundly and deeply he heard her sigh as she pulled him closer. Hearing the cry again they pulled apart and Hermione saw her friends staring incrediously at her before they all turned around as Madam Pomprey appeared behind them with a bundle in her arms. Hermione felt tears roll down her cheeks before she heard someone say something.

"It's a boy." They nodded saying that they knew. Her friends said nothing simply watching how they acted together. Hermione and Draco's eyes were shining with love and they held there baby gently and Hermione began cooing and Draco smiled. Her friends were shocked. Draco never smiled. Yet here he was smiling happily. As though nothing in the world was happing it was just him and Hermione.

Hermione kissed Draco again and he smiled when the baby began making noise. He looked at Hermione and asked what they were going to call it and she said, "Draco." Draco frowned and asked why. She explained that when she thought they were going to break up and she would be alone she wanted to always remember him and knowing she would anyway. Then she decided to name the baby after him so that no matter what he'd always be with her. Wiping a tear away he smiled before saying hoarsely.

"Draco."
