Okay, to the person who reviewed and wondered why it seemed like I was summing things up: I AM lol. This is the last chapter of this story, I said that last chapter, and the chapter before that too lol. I don't have anything left to write for this Hermione and Draco.

Enjoy this last one guys, and then get ready for the prequel. I'm actually kind of nervous to write it since I already know it can't have a happy ending :( , but oh well, they have one here (: I love that all you guys reviewed and said you wanted a prequel, because I never would have thought to write one, but I'm excited.

ENJOY!

"Scorpius give me back my phone!"

"Not a chance Phe, I don't approve of you talking to boys." said Scorpius to his little sister Phoebe.

Scorpius was only at his parents home to visit because Rose was supposed to be stopping by. He was 19, had his own place, a bachelor pad of sorts, and he worked for Draco in the business. Of course he couldn't miss the opportunity to play big brother to his sister.

"Scorpius please! He's going to wonder why I haven't responded!"

He opened his mouth to fire back a response when Rose walked through the front door.

Scorpius and Phoebe hadn't seen Rose in 4 months, since work and her husband had taken her away to California, and kept her busy.

Rose was 27, married to James Potter, and even though Harry and Draco tried to act dismayed by the union, everyone had known they would marry. Rose worked as the CEO of her own company, and had a two year old daughter named Charlotte. She had grown into a very smart, very beautiful young woman, who her parents were immensely proud of.

"Rosie!" squealed Phoebe, hurling herself into her big sisters arms.

Scorpius was more in control of his reactions, but was still extremely excited to be seeing his sister.

He walked over and hugged her, "It's great to see you again."

"How have my two favorite siblings been doing?" she asked, her smile radiant, as she was followed in by James who was carrying Charlotte.

"Hey James." said Phe and Scorpius.

"Hey guys."

"Where are mum and dad?" she asked, walking further into the house while Phoebe took Charlotte from James and made small, baby talk with her.

"Backyard," said Scorpius, sliding Phoebe's phone into her back pocket.

"Just don't do anything dad or I would do." he warned.

She smiled and said, "Thank you,"

They followed Rose and James into the backyard and saw Hermione and Draco hugging them.

"And look who's back," coo-ed Hermione, "Do you remember nana?"

Charlotte laughed, "Nana, nana, nana!"

Hermione gave her a kiss and Draco picked her up, tickling her and kissing her before passing her back to Phoebe.

"How was California?" asked Draco after they'd all settle in at the table.

"It was great...really it was...but we feel like maybe it'd be better for us to come back home to London for a while." said Rose.

Everyone was excited that they were staying. They'd missed the three of them terribly, and it would be nice to have everyone back in one area.

Especially since Phoebe was graduating from Hogwarts this year, and had already set up plans to become a Mediwitch. Everyone knew she'd do wonderfully, considering she had her mother's brains and her father's cunning.

"I couldn't miss my little sisters graduation now could I?" asked Rose, smiling over at Phe who was sitting in the grass with Charlotte and Scorpius pointing to clouds.

"I remember when you used to do that with me." she said to Hermione, a smile on her face.

Hermione and Draco chuckled, "I remember the day I had to explain the 'point' of it to your grandmother."

"I can't believe my baby's getting married."

"Mum," whined Scorpius.

Hermione was fussing over his tie, even though it was already perfect.

"I'm just so happy for you."

At that he smiled, "I know mum. Thank you."

Draco walked in and smirked, "And the last Malfoy bachelor is about to be off the market. How do you feel?"

"Nervous." he answered honestly.

Hermione excused herself, giving her husband a chance to talk with Scorpius.

"Everyone's nervous on their wedding day."

"Rose was nervous?" he asked, surprised. He'd never known anything that made Rose even slightly nervous. In all the years he'd known her all he'd heard were stories of how her bravery was something that rivaled her mother's when she'd been in Gryffindor years before.

"Extremely," said Draco, smiling as he thought back to the day he'd given his baby girl over to take the Potter's last name.

He shook his head, "Bloody Potters."

Scorpius laughed, "How'd you know you were doing the right thing when you married mum?"

Draco smirked, "She was the only one who could keep me in check."

Scorpius chuckled, but said, "No, seriously. I mean after everything that happened, after you left...how did you know mum was the person you wanted to be with?"

"Because, I love everything about your mother, even her irritating habits like fussing over everything."

Scorpius raised an identical blonde eyebrow at his father and Draco smiled.

"You know, because you can't imagine living your life without that person. I can't even picture not waking up next to your mother."

Scorpius let out a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding. He actually felt better. He knew that he loved Layna Lovegood. She was smart, kind, witty, and beautiful. She had long dark black hair, courtesy of her father Blaise, pale blue eyes from Luna, and delicate facial features that reminded Scorpius of an angel. She was everything to him. He loved her. Layna's parents hadn't ever gotten married, said it just wasn't their style, but they had been together almost as long as Hermione and Draco had been together.

"Thanks dad." he said, giving his father one last hug before he went to take his place at the altar.

"I got the job!"

Everyone screamed and hugged her, Scorpius the most excited for his little sister.

She'd gotten the job at St. Mungo's.

"Oh sweetie I'm so proud of you." said Hermione, wrapping her daughter up in a hug.

Draco smiled, "I knew she could do it. She was a Slytherin after all."

Rose, Hermione, and James stuck their tongues out at him, "Gryffindor still beats Slytherin any day." said Rose with a smirk that rivaled her father's.

Draco and Scorpius rolled their eyes, not buying it for a second. Phoebe didn't really care that she'd been placed in Slytherin, and she didn't care that Rose had been in Gryffindor. All she knew was that her family was amazing and cunning and brave and she'd just gotten a job at St. Mungo's, not because her father was a Malfoy, and not because her mother was intimidating, and not because her sister was a big shot CEO, but because she was smart, she'd worked hard, and she'd earned it.

"When do you start?" asked James, bouncing five year old Charlotte on his lap.

"Monday," answered Phoebe, unable to contain her excitement.

After everyone had calmed down and were all seated around the big dining room table at Draco and Hermione's house, they all fell into easy discussion.

"How are you and Layna?" Phoebe asked Scorpius.

"We're good." he said with a smile, and leaned over so only Phoebe could hear him.

"I want to tell you something, but you have to promise to keep it quiet. No one else knows yet."

Phoebe's toffee eyes widened and she nodded, "Alright, spill."

"Layna's pregnant."

Phoebe had to physically bite her tongue to keep from screaming. Her brother was having a baby. He was going to be a father.

"Not a word Phe." he said with a smile. He knew his little sister well enough to know that she was two seconds away from exploding.

"I'm so happy for you." she said, reaching over and squeezing his hand.

He smiled, "Thank you."

"You didn't tell me you had a boyfriend."

Phoebe rolled her eyes, "You're starting to sound like Scorpius."

Rose chuckled, "Well it's just that over the last two years you haven't so much as looked at a guy. I'm just a bit surprised."

Phoebe sighed, "I really like him Rose."

"Well tell me about him."

"His name is Brandyn." she said with a smile.

"Brandyn...Brandyn Greengrass?" asked Rose, a bit surprised.

Phoebe nodded, "Yeah...he's really sweet, and cute, and he's smart. We've actually been dating for a while."

"How long's a while?" asked Rose, eyebrow raised.

"11 months." she mumbled.

"11 months!" asked Rose, incredulous. "Why didn't you tell me? That's almost a year Phoebe!"

"I'm sorry!" she said, throwing her hands up, "I wanted to. But then Scorpius and Layna had Ryker and Ryder while everyone was still fussing over their first son, and then James got promoted, Charlotte started 3rd grade...everything was happening and I didn't want to have everyone freaking out over me."

Rose rolled her eyes and smiled, "Have you told mum and dad?"

She snorted, "No,"

"What about Scor?"

"Are you insane? No I haven't told him."

"You know he'd want to know." she said slowly.

Phoebe sighed, "I know...but he's been so busy with everything lately. I mean he has his own family now. He doesn't really have time to fuss over me Rosie."

Rose placed a hand over Phoebe's and said, "You could just talk to him. I know he still has time for you. You always were his favorite sister."

"Oh don't say that." scolded Phoebe.

Rose just laughed. She didn't feel upset about it, she thought it was sweet, "It's true. Although I think it's because you and he were both in Slytherin."

Phoebe chuckled, "I just don't want to bother him. He's going to be taking over dad's business in two weeks, he just had twins, Jonathan's only two, he has Layna...he's just busy, and my little news about Brandyn kind of pales in comparison to all that."

"I don't know...why don't you ask him?"

Phoebe turned around and saw Scorpius leaning in the entry way of the kitchen, an unreadable expression on his face, much like Draco used to do...still did.

Rose stood up and left the two of them in the kitchen. Scorpius walked in and sat down in the chair Rose had just vacated.

Phoebe didn't know what to say. She and Scorpius had always been so close, but over the past few years they'd just grown apart. He'd had a family, she'd started work. They were both busy.

But she missed him.

"What's going on Phe? Talk to me."

"Oh it's nothing." she said, waving her hand in the air to brush it off.

"Phe, I know you."

"Do you?" she asked, before she could stop herself.

"Of course I - Phe, what's going on?" asked Scorpius, moving so he was sitting next to her.

"Nothing, it's just...I miss you." she said quietly.

"Miss me? What do you mean?"

"I just...I never see you anymore. And I get it. You're busy, you have a family, and work, and Layna-"

"Phoebe, I am never to busy to spend time with my little sister." he said, taking her hand.

"I just don't want to bother you with-"

"Bother me? Phe, whenever you want to talk you can call me, you can floo, you can ride a dragon if you have to. I'll always be here for you to talk to."

At that Phoebe smiled, "Okay,"

"So," he said, leaning back in his chair with the telltale Malfoy smirk, "Tell me about this Brandyn."

"Can you believe how lucky we are?"

Draco chuckled, looking over at Hermione who was stationed at the bay window painting the golden leaves of the tree's that lined their backyard.

"No, I can't."

"I mean to have so many kids running around...I feel like Molly Weasely."

Draco snorted, "It is somewhat reminiscent of the times I spent over at the Burrow."

Hermione rolled her eyes, "You know that you had fun after a while too."

He nodded, "True, now," he said, walking behind her and wrapping his arms around her waist, "When are you going to come downstairs and sit with everybody. I can only endure Harry and Ron alone for so long."

Hermione rolled her eyes, because she knew he was only kidding. Somewhat.

"There are plenty of other people downstairs Draco. We've got like half of London down there."

"But my favorite person is upstairs painting." he murmured, pressing a kiss to her neck.

She smiled, "Alright then. Downstairs we go."

He pulled her back and kissed her, pulling away with a smirk.

"What was that for?"

"Just because," he said smiling.

He took her hand and they headed downstairs.

"Ron have you seen Ginny?"

Ron pointed over to one of the couches where Ginny was sitting and reading to the younger kids. Hermione and Draco walked over and sat down by her, pulling Ryker and Ryder onto their lap.

They had to have been the cutest twins. They both had jet black hair like Layna, but Scorpius' gray eyes. They were simply adorable.

"Hey mum," said Phoebe, leaning down to kiss Ryker and Ryder on the cheek, "Brandyn and I are going to get out of here, we have some stuff we have to take care of for the wedding."

Brandyn smiled at Draco and gave Hermione a hug, "Thank you for having me over Mr. Malfoy."

Draco smirked, "I just want my daughter happy, and you seem to do that quite well."

Brandyn smiled and looked at Phoebe, who was blushing.

"Alright dad, we're leaving now." she said, taking Brandyn's hand and pulling him out the door.

Phoebe and Brandyn were getting married in two months, and excitement was in the air.

Hermione saw Astoria across the room smiling as she watched Brandyn and Phoebe exit, and when she caught Hermione's eye she smiled at her too.

Draco leaned over and kissed her cheek, "You having fun?"

"How could I not?" she asked with a smile, looking around at the room full of kids and family and friends that she held near and dear.

Draco smiled and pressed a soft kiss to her lips, a smirk on his face.

"Oh I know that look Mr. Malfoy."

"Do you now? So then I suppose you know what we're doing tonight." he said with a smirk, being sure no one else heard him.

Hermione blushed and rolled her eyes, "Now that is highly inappropriate conversation for a party."

But inside, she couldn't wait for tonight.

Being surrounded by so many people who love me, and who I love back, is quite the miraculous feeling. I didn't grow up with the best values, the best family, but I met a beautiful woman who saw something in me that I didn't even see in myself. The potential to be a good person. The potential to love someone more than I loved myself, and to be willing to do anything for that person.

Hermione Jean Granger is that person for me. She has no doubt saved my tainted soul, with a look, a touch - her love. I can't begin to express how fucking lucky I am to have married and created a beautiful family with such an astounding woman. I don't deserve her. I don't. But by some miracle she loves me, see's past my flaws, all the bad I've done, all the times I've hurt her, and she's still here. After everything, she's still here.

I can't imagine my life without the beautiful, crazy witch, nor would I ever want to. She's made me fucking happy, and that alone is a miracle. What I feel for her, for our family, isn't something I can explain, it isn't something I can compare to something, it just is.

Rose and Scorpius and Phoebe are the best children in the world, and have made me the happiest father, and their beautiful children have made me the happiest grandfather.

I guess what I'm attempting to say is that I couldn't be more thankful for the life I have, and I couldn't love my family more.

My name is Draco Malfoy, and I have proof that love can conquer anything.

I don't know how to thank all of you for reading, reviewing, and enjoying my story. I hope I ended it okay, I hope I did the last chapter justice.

I wanted Draco to end it because he's finally aware of how special everything he has is, and he's certainly not giving it up.

I hope you're okay with what I've done with the story, I hope you've enjoyed it. I had fun writing it, but endings are always kind of bittersweet for me.

Until next time,

Lucinda
