I wouk just like to say a quick sorry I haven't posted in a while:( I'm sorry! I would also like to thank Rose Davis for helpin me once again!
A very pregnant Hermione sat on the bed. Feet, legs and ankles swollen beyond recognition. Eight months but she felt like she was going to pop at any minute. The boys needed at least another two weeks of gestation before it would be safe for them to make their entrance into the world, but it seemed that they were being a bit impatient. Hermione had already dilated to 3cm so she was put on strict bed rest only being allowed to get up to use the loo. She was highly upset and wished that Draco hadn't insisted on going to the appointment with the healer, now he is keeping an ever watchful eye on her. He has even threatened to put a full body bind on her if she left the bed for anything other than to use the loo. He told the house elves to cater to her every need and if they faltered he would have them beheaded. The last part was a bit much Hermione thought but then again this is Draco we are talking about. She was so tired of reading if you could believe that was possible. She wished that Ede was home from school at least then she would have constant company through out the day. Ginny dropped by but she wasn't any fun this past week as she never is when Harry has to be out on missions for more than two days. The constant visits from Narcissa and her insistence that once the boys are born that they all move to the manor with her. Hermione didn't have the heart to tell her that under no circumstance would she live there but she politely nodded. Finally Draco was back from the office and she was happy.
"Draco, how I have missed you. Your mother is still very adamant about us moving to the manor once Scorpius and Cygnus are born. You really need to talk to her about that."
"I will have a talk with her this afternoon. Now have you been following healers orders?"
"Yes, Draco. I have not moved from this spot and the elves are her to check on me every 30 minutes. They seem to be under the impression that you will have them killed if they don't. Would you know anything about that?" She said giving him a knowing look.
"I really don't know what you are talking about. I asked them to take care of my fiancée the mother of my children. Is that a bad thing?"
"It is when they think their life's depend on it"
Would you know anything about that?" She said giving him a knowing look.
"I really don't know what you are talking about. I asked them to take care of my fiancée the mother of my children. Is that a bad thing?"
"It is when they are doing it because they think their life depends on it."
Draco waved his hand in a dismissive manner and sat down next to Hermione on the bed.
"Is Ginny coming round today?"
"Yeah, I'm not sure if I'm going to look forward for it though as Harrys out on a mission." Hermione sighed as she wiggled her swollen toes. Draco sighed and checked his watch.
"Well, Mother should be home by now, I'll go talk to her about this moving arrangement." Hermione nodded in approval and watched him stand up and straighten his tie.
"Draco, please put her down gently would you. Maybe take her some flowers and try to be a little less well you." Draco looked at hermione before breaking into a smile. "I'll try love. I'll be back later. Do not leave that bed" he gave hermione a quick kiss and turned to leave the room just as Ginny walked though. "Red" Draco nodded in her direction. "Ferret" she nodded back, still slightly angry with him but tries not to for hermiones sake.
Once draco left the room ginny and hermione started talking. "Harry sent me an owl this morning telling me everything is fine and he should be back later tonight." Ginny said in an excited tone which made hermione laugh. "Well Gin that's good to hear, maybe then Harry can convince Draco to actually let me move more. I don't even think my feet even work anymore" Ginny gave Hermione an amused look before being distracted by an owl tapping on the window. "Whose-" Hermione shrugged not needing to hear the rest of the sentence. Ginny opened the window and took the letter out of the owls beak and watched it fly into the distance before looking down at the envelope. "Its not got a name on it" she said as she sat down next to hermione and looked at her for approval. Hermione nodded and watched Ginny open it and pulling out a pink parchment, reading it she watched Ginnys face go redder and redder. "What?" Hermione asked once she finished reading. "I think I need to pay little Astoria a visit" she said calmly with a hint of excitement. She passed the note to Hermione .
'My dear Draco,
I know that mudblood is having another one of your children. You can't love her its simply impossible. please just come back to me I will produce the Malfoy heir you're so longing for. I'm at the Greengrass Manor. Please drakey just come home.
Tori x'
Hermione finished the note and looked at Ginny.
"Do you think-"
"Ha, no I don't think Draco's that stupid especially after what happened a couple of weeks ago. Although this slut just doesn't give up does she" Ginny rose from the bed and walked over to the mirror, sorting her hair out before turning back round to Hermione.
"Right then 'mione I'll be twenty minutes tops"
She smiled sweetly as she took her wand out of her leather boots and examining it.
"Gin don't do what I think you're going to do" hermione called out to her as she watched her disappear into the bathroom. "I have no idea what you're on about 'mione" Ginny re-emerged out the bathroom, although atleast Hermione thought it was Ginny, because it was now Draco who was walking up to the mirror and checking himself out.
"Gin? What the fuck are you doing"
Ginny turned around and smiled at Hermione. "Well as long as she doesn't get to close and doesn't examine my wand this should work perfectly!" She said excitedly which made hermione smile. Ginny walked up to hermione and cleared her throat. "Now I'll be twenty minutes love, do not under any circumstances leave that bed" she spoke in a very Draco like voice that creeped the hell out of hermione. She winked at hermione before walking to the door. "That's is so weird" she grimaced as she watched Draco straighten his tie. "Oh Gin, put more of a sneer on. Or she'll figure it out straight away" hermione said cheerfully as she watched Ginny pull more of a Draco like Face as she walked out the door.
"Much better" she said as she sank back into the bed re-reading the note.
Draco made his way to the manor and was greeted by his mothers personal elf Cuppie. "Young Mastor Malfoy has come to see Madame."
"Thank you Cuppie, you may go now." Said Narcissa and she saw her son walk in. "Draco what brings you here? I wasn't expecting you today. I thought you would be taking care of Hermione."
"I have the elves watching her while I am here. We have pressing matter we have to discuss mother."
"What is that Draco? I have been getting the place ready for you, Hermione and the kids. Oh I can't wait for the house to have the sound of children in it again."
"That is what I want to talk to you about mother. I am here to let you know that we will not be moving in with you after the babies are born. This place does not have fond memories for Hermione and I refuse to put her through that. Please understand mother, I have to do what is right for my family, not what is convenient for you."
"Draco, I have been the tolerant one throughout this whole ordeal with you and Hermione. I am the one who made you acknowledge Ede in the first place. Now that you have finally come to your senses you don't want to come and live in the manor like the Malfoy that you are. What have I done to deserve this."
"Mother you have been nothing but understanding throughout this. Had father not been locked away in Azkaban I know that he would have disowned me for getting Hermione pregnant, but you had no problems with it and for that I thank you but you still have to let me live my own life. I was controlled by father all my life. Now I am my own man and I have make my own decisions."
"I understand son. It is just so lonely now here now that you are living with your family. I will not bother you with this again." Narcissa had saddness in her eyes but she knew she had to let this go for Draco's sake. She would not be controlling like Lucius. She will let him make his own decisions.
"Don't worry mother I will make sure that Ede and the boys spend their weekends with their grandmother." With that Draco kissed his mother gently on the cheek and left so that he can get back to Hermione.
"The look on her face was enough! Truly 'mione it was funny as fuck to say at least" Ginny said through her cackles of laughter, which made Hermione join in. They finally calmed down after a few minutes, Ginny sighed and wiped the tears away.
"Well 'mione it's safe to say precious 'tori' will not bother you two again" she winked and walked towards the mirror. "Gin, how exactly does that spell last for.." Hermione asked as she watched Ginny looking in the mirror still looking like Draco. Ginny shrugged and turned round and walked towards the side of the bed Hermione was on. "I have no idea, I watched Kingsley do it once and it lasted for about two hours..." She pulled up the sleeve of the tailored jacket and frowned down at the watch on her wrist. "...so it should wear out in about five minutes" she laughed and patted Hermione on the shoulder.
"GRANGER IM HOME!" A voice trailed from somewhere down stairs, Hermione and Ginny froze and looked at each other. "Shit!" Ginny expressed. "Gin hide!" Hermione squeaked out as she hear footsteps climb up the last of the stairs and reach her door. Ginny ran around the room the quickly ducked next to Hermione and rolled under the bed as the real Draco walked through the door.
