A/N: short chapter, but I will make it up to you I promise.
Last time:
"I am going to announce to your family that everyone is alright, the baby weighs in at 8lbs 11 oz and 21 inches in length." the healer said with a smile.
"I had a big baby" Hermione laughed as he left the room.
Now:
"Are you sure about this?" Severus asked
"Absolutely, this is a perfect chance to prove to the world that we are an actual family."
Knowing she was resigned in her idea, Lucius left the room to gather one of the reporters. The reporter was from the prophet, and extremely pleased that he was getting the story everyone wanted.
"How are you feeling Ms..."
"Malfoy – Snape" she answered, smiling proud. "and I'm feeling great considering I just had a baby." she laughed.
The reporter stayed for almost an hour, getting the details on their relationship, taking notes and promising to use class when writing his article. He left the happy group, suddenly understanding why the three were so widely know, but resolved in the fact that the arrangement worked well for them.
The next Morning, Severus walked into the hospital room with three papers.
"The reporter did well." Severus stated, "I think he could be useful to you and has proved he can keep a promise as this article is very well written."
Hermione and Lucius quickly grabbed a paper from Severus and started to read. The front page had a nice sized picture of the four of them.
New baby born to England's most controversial relationship. By Justin Dearly
Hermione Malfoy – Snape has given birth the the couples third child. Lucius Malfoy and Severus Snape, both professors at Hogwarts school, welcomed a baby boy into their family yesterday. The group is widely known for the fact that Mrs. Hermione Malfoy- Snape, formerly, Hermione Granger, is married to both wizards. Their relationship has been in the spotlight for sometime now, giving both positive and negative lights to the loving relationship. I spent almost an hour with the three as they enjoyed the newest member of their family. The new child, Severus Eros Snape, is biologically the son of Severus Snape, However, it was very obvious to me that he was loved just the same by Lucius Malfoy. When I asked them how they considered the children, Lucius Malfoy stated that the children were all loved equally by each parent. To quote Mr. Malfoy, he explained. "The children belong to all three of us. It doesn't matter who the biological father is, we love each child as if they were ours biologically. Severus has been a great father to my biological son, Dominic and I absolutely adore Severus biological daughter, Victoria. They each call us dad, there is no my dad this or my dad that. We are both their fathers and are proud to be so."
Both Severus and Hermione agreed with his statement, and I must admit, if I ever had a doubt before, the hour I spent with them wiped it away. The three of them love each other and the love is indeed strong. No one can question what I felt in that room and I strongly believe that those children already here and any that come in the future, will have a wonderful family life and strong values. I want to be the first one to publicly support their relationship and offer my sincerest congratulations to the three proud parents.
"Wow, he did do good" she whispered in awe
"Indeed, I couldn't have written it better myself." Lucius agreed.
