A/N: Thanks Bex for this idea! This is written for the Pick A List Competition, the 25 Days of Christmas Competition, and the Monthly Het-Tastic Drabble-Athon. My prompts were holiday parties for 25 Days of Christmas and home for the drabble- athon. Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. JK Rowling does.
Draco Malfoy was changing ties again when Astoria Malfoy entered the room. They were hosting a holiday party at their home again that year and spent all week preparing for it. Well, the house elves had done most of the preparing. They still had to do other tasks though, like figuring out place settings. He left that up to his wife though. She knew their friends more than they did. They had more holiday parties to attend to, but they liked hosting the first one.
He had been distracted when she came in, but when she didn't say anything, Draco looked up. It wasn't often when he was concerned about his wife, but she had been quiet all week. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. It was rare for him to be affectionate as well. "Is everything ok?" He asked as he placed a kiss on her cheek.
Draco remained quiet while he waited for her to answer. "I think so," she answered quietly. He wanted to sigh, but he held his annoyance back. He figured he wouldn't get a real answer if they were annoyed with each other.
A small smiled played on Astoria's lips as she turned to look at him finally. His curiosity continued to grow as he kept his eyes on her.
"I'm pregnant." Draco widened his eyes in surprise as he took a step back. She was pregnant? They were pregnant? He was going to be a dad? He wondered to himself. He wasn't sure what to expect, but this had been far from his mind.
A chuckle escaped from him a moment later. "I'm going to be a dad?" He asked in awe. Astoria nodded as she closed the gap between them and kissed him.
Draco's heart soared when he heard this news, though half of him still didn't know what to think. He didn't know how to be a father, though he knew he didn't want to be like his father. He shook those thoughts away and kissed her deeply on the lips.
"I'm so happy to hear this news," he said honestly. He could deal with his other feelings later. A baby had to be celebrated after all. He couldn't believe he was going to have a child of his own. He reached for Astoria's hand as somebody rang the doorbell. Draco Malfoy was going to be a father! Everything was going to change for sure.
A/N: The baby is going to be Scorpius of course. Thanks for reading! Please leave a review!
