Chapter 13:
The next morning, Sophie woke up and her body felt sore. She was back at Draco's room. When they had gotten back last night, they had just collapsed on the bed and fallen asleep.
As she looked around the room she saw Draco coming out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist and his hair was wet. He had showered.
He smiled at her as she woke up. "Morning, baby" he said.
"Morning" she replied.
"You wanna go and take a shower?" Draco asked. She nodded and got up. And then she walked to the bathroom and showered.
Draco just lay down on the bed, didn't bother to change. He just lay there in his towel, listening to the shower on the bathroom. He enjoyed the thought that for the first time in a few years now, people could relax and know that Voldemort isn't a danger anymore.
Sophie came back with her wet hair in a messy back bun, and a towel around her body. She lay down in the bed next to Draco.
He looked at her and smiled. She smiled back. He stroke his hand over her belly, and he realised: he was gonna be a dad. First now it seemed real to him. That in Sophie's belly was a little baby, that was gonna grow and become Mary Jane Malfoy.
After a few weeks, Draco got a job at Gringotts. He wanted to make enough money for he and Sophie to buy an apartment to live in. As Sophie reached her fourth month of pregnancy, they moved into their apartment. It wasn't that big. Two bedrooms , kitchen, a bathroom and a living room. Just what they needed for now.
Draco got quite over protective over Sophie. He said that if she wanted to go somewhere, she'd wait until he was home so he could come with her and make sure she didn't get hurt. Sophie just had to tolerate it, because he had made up his mind. It leaded to a lot of fighting between the two of them. She blamed him for taking away her freedom, he tried to explain that it was because he loved her, and cared about her.
During the next couple of months, she got more moody than before. It was a little tiring for Draco, but he kept reminding himself that it was just her hormones, and it was he who got her pregnant after all.
And then it was this one day, a week before she was due, when he got home. He came home around four in the afternoon, and Sophie was laying in the sofa.
"Hey, baby" he said.
"Hi" she replied and got up, despite the big belly she had. He came over and kissed her.
"How are you?" He asked and stroke her belly.
"Not to good" she answered.
"Why? Something wrong?" He asked.
"I wanted to take a shower" she said.
"And...?" Draco asked.
"I can't reach the towels." She explained with a sad expression. Draco sighed, he wanted to tell her she could of used her wand, but knowing her, or more like her hormones, she'd explode at him. Yell, cry.
He walked into the bathroom, leaned down to the little cupboard under the sink and took out a towel for her.
"Thank you!" She said and kissed his cheek before taking the shower. Draco sat in the sofa, reading the daily prophet and enjoying the Friday afternoon. He expected it to be a peaceful weekend.
When Sophie got out, she sat down next to Draco and looked at him until he noticed.
"Can we go out?" She asked.
"Out where?" He asked back.
"I wanna go and see Megan and Dan's house. I haven't been there since they died" she explained.
"Alright then" he said. She got really happy and gave him a deep passionate kiss before going to find her shoes.
A little later, they stood and looked at the ruins of the house Sophie had grown up in. They went inside and looked around. Up to Sophie's old room, where clothes that were way to small for her now lay around. All of her belongings were full of dust by by now. So was the rest of the house.
After that they decided to go back to the apartment. Sophie was in the middle of walking over the road, as Draco closed the door.
"I think I forgot the keys to the apartment inside the house here" he said. Sophie stopped in the middle of the road.
"No, i have them here" she said and started looking through her pockets.
"Sophie!" Draco yelled.
"Just a minute" she replied and looked through the other pocket.
"No, Sophie! One of those... Argh! What are they called?" He yelled.
"Just a second" she was now looking through her purse. Draco was running towards her. She held up the key in triumph, but then she saw a car coming towards her. Draco was running towards her, and then she felt her body hit the ground.
