I rather enjoyed writing this chapter I can't wait for ten though!

"Utter rubbish!" Hermione exclaimed as she slammed today's edition of the daily profit down on the side. "Utter, utter rubbish" she opened the fridge door and pulled out a bottle of fire whisky and slammed the door shut. "I mean, seriously?" She shrieked as she collected to small glasses from the draw and set them on the side. "Just because me and malfoy was stood hand in hand waving our daughter goodbye and that I was wearing a baggy top doesn't mean I am bearing the next malfoy child! For merlin sake we're not even together!" She rambled as she poured a fair amount of fire whiskey into the two glasses before taking a gulp from her glass. She passed the glass to Harry as he too, took a big gulp, letting it burn the back of his throat. "Hermione like you said it's rubbish, just rumours don't get so worked up about it" Harry said softly to hermione as she drained the rest of her glass. She let out a heavy sigh before returning the fire whiskey back into the fridge. "I just don't get how they make stuff up like that Harry? It's ridiculous!" Harry gave her a pointed look as he reached for both of her hands and held them in his own giving them a light squeeze. "Ridiculous it is but they have to make their money some way don't they? Even if they do write ridiculous rumours" "you're right Harry, I don't know why it gets to me?" "Neither do I, although I haven't seen you ramble in ages" he lightly teased as he removed his hands from hers. "You know I love you right?" "I love you too 'Mione"
"Aunt hermione!" Albus shouted as he emerged from the fire place with Ginny. "Hey sweetie you look dashing today!" Hermione crouched down so she could receive a hug from her godson. "Mummy says I always look dashing aunt hermione don't you mummy?" Albus turned round to his mother and shot her a cheesy grin.
"That's because you are honey!" Ginny said as she sat down in Harry's lap. Albus turned back to hermione and gave her a huge teethy grin. "See aunt hermione I'm always dashing, you need to find a new compliment" he shrieked cheekily.
"How about handsome sweetie?"
"Yes! I like being handsome!" Albus giggled as she tickled his tummy. Just then her fire place roared to life once more as Draco stepped out brushing away the snoot on his expensive attire.
Removing his self from hermione's grip Albus ran towards Draco excitedly. "Uncle draaaaaco!"
"Hey buddy" Draco replied as he picked Albus up and poked his belly earning a fit of giggles from the young boy. "Uncle Draco, aunt hermione said I look dashing today but I said she needed a new compliment because mummy tells me that all the time" Albus exclaimed as Draco raised his eyebrow towards Ginny earning a shrug in return. "But then aunt hermione said I look handsome, just like you tell me don't you?" Albus continued as he stared at Draco.
"Did she now? Well I think you should tell your aunt 'Mione she needs a new, new compliment" Draco shot a smirk towards hermione as he continued. "But yes you do look very handsome today kiddo" Draco set Albus down and ruffled his hair. "Hey! Don't ruin my dashing look uncle Draco" he mumbled sorting out his hair before he perched his self in hermione's lap.
"How longs this owl been here?" Draco asked as he opened the window and let the bird swoop into hermione's sitting room before landing next to her. Hermione untied the letter from the birds foot and gave it a rub under its neck. She opened the letter, with help of Albus and scanned the parchment, "it's from the ministry, saying I've been invited to a formal ball, have you's received this?" She asked as she looked between Harry, Ginny and Draco earning a nod of all off them. "Are you attending?"
"Yes, we have nothing better to do" Ginny replied. Hermione looked at Draco with a smile lacing her lips. "And you? Are you going?"
"Only if you'd be my date?" Draco said as he grabbed her hand and kissed it before pulling away and winking at her. "Ewww!, uncle Draco!" Albus put his hands over his eyes at the scene before him. "Oh, of course I will Draco, I'd be delighted!" Hermione replied laughing as Albus still had his hands over his eyes.
Just then another owl came swooping in and landed next to hermione. "Hello hedwog" she said lightly as she untied the hogwarts letter from his foot before giving him an affectionate rub. "It's from Eden" she said to herself as she let Albus open it and pull the letter out. She read it and smiled to herself. "She's been sorted into gryffindor! She said shes really enjoying her first few days and can't wait to visit the library" hermione spoke to Draco proudly. "I always knew my little girl would be a gryffindor!" She teased as she shot a wink to him. "Great just what i needed! Bloody gryffindors" he teased back to her as she scribbled a quick reply. Ginny stood and pulled Harry up. "We must be getting back no doubt James has wrote to tell us which house he's in, even though there's no doubt he's in gryffindor!" Ginny exclaimed excitedly as she grabbed Albus' hand before making her way towards the fireplace. Harry kissed hermione on the cheek before joining his wife "we'll see you tomorrow ok?" He said as he picked up some floo powder. "Yeah we'll see you tomorrow aunt hermione make sure you think of a new new compliment for me" Albus screamed before they disappeared behind the green flames.
"Have you seen the daily profit today?" Draco asked as hermione came out of her bathroom and made her way towards the mirror. She wore a very tight black v neck dress that went to her knees and a pair of sparkling 6inch silver heels. "Yes, utter rubbish if you ask me" she said as she put on her red lipstick. "Pregnant seriously? Is that the best they could come up with" she continued as she placed a pair of diamond earrings in her ears and brushed her hair that flowed perfectly to her waist. Draco chuckled to his self as he made his way towards her. placing a hand on her waist he lent down to her neck and kissed it lightly. "If it was up to me, you would be making malfoy babies all year round" he whispered in her ear as he felt her shudder underneath his grip. "Mmm, luckily it isn't up to you then aye" she said through a moan. He placed small kisses along her jaw before her reached her mouth giving her a long passionate kiss. "For now that is" he moaned against her mouth. She removed her self from his grip and grabbed her purse, she placed her wand and lipstick inside before clicking its shut. She made her way towards his and grabbed his tie pulling him towards her she kissed him heavily "Mmm, lets go to dinner before we get to carried away" she said softly as she removed the red stain from his lips with her thumb. He grabbed her hand and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Again, if it was up to me we'd be already in that bed of yours by now" and with that they apparated away.
