Edited 6/16/23: Minor Grammar/Spelling and a little more detail in the flashback


To be perfectly honest, this is the chapter that convinced me to write this piece. I wanted to write a story that went day by day through Hermione's pregnancy and well beyond showing how each day can have something to look forward to even if it's quite small. I know many of you guessed it, so here it is!


Tuesday, June 16, 1998

"Darling," Draco said as he held back her braids as she vomited into the toilet. Theo was hovering behind him wringing his hands. "When did you have your last period?"

"Not since before Christmas," Hermione groaned, "my cycle has been a mess. Not having enough food on the run, didn't help anything, that's for sure." She could feel them looking at each other behind her back.

"Could you be…?" Theo asked.

"I've only been back with you two a little over a month and the last time I had sex was last summer," she said softly, resting her forehead on the seat.

"But, uh we had sex in April…" Draco said sheepishly.


Wednesday, April 15, 1998

Hermione blinked her eyes open to her cheek being stroked. She could feel the comforting magic rolling off of him. There was no way that he was here, he had to protect his position.

"Am I dreaming?" she murmured.

"No, Darling," Draco whispered, leaning closer to her, "I'm really here. Fleur called me to help after…"

Hermione felt tears wet her cheeks as she pulled him into a tight hug. "Please just hold me," she said softly.

"I love you so much," he said quietly as he wrapped his arms around her tightly, "I feel like I've failed you."

"No, no you were the only thing that got me through, mon étoile," she said, tears pooling in her eyes. "I don't think I'd even be here if not for you."

"I'm sorry. The whole time, all I could think about was killing her. She needs to die. She's the worst type of person."

"I don't disagree, Draco, but for now, I just need you to hold me and remind me how much you and Theo love me."

"I can do that," he said, tightening his arms.

Sometime later, she felt herself being awoken as he began to pull away from her. "Don't go," she whispered.

He flushed and smiled at her awkwardly. "I need to handle some business," he gestured to where his cock was pressing against her hip.

"I can take care of you," she said mischievously.

"But I don't want to hu-"

"I'm already hurting," she replied before he could finish. "I need you."

She pulled him down for a kiss, groaning into his mouth when he deepened it. "Draco, I need you," she whimpered.

"Darling, darling," he murmured against her lips, hovering over her. He trailed kisses down her cheek and neck kneeling between her thighs. He ran his hands softly up her sides and she moaned quietly.

He'd reached the apex of her thighs and had bunched her nightgown up around her hips. Lowering himself between her thighs. He sprinkled kisses all around her mound, teasing her sensitive flesh.

"I've missed you," he said darkly, "Theo and I have been so worried about you."

"I've missed y-" she started and broke off in a moan as he sucked her clit into his mouth. He slowly inserted one finger inside of her and began to thrust gently, running his tongue along her centre.

The Cruciatus Tremors seemed to lessen as she began to climb towards her peak. Before she knew it she was coming apart on his tongue.

After catching her breath, she pushed his face away and pulled him towards her. "Please Draco," she groaned as he continued to tease her, "I need you."

He pulled up and hovered over her, looking into her eyes, making sure she was really alright.

"It's helping the tremors," she said quietly "Please don't stop."

He nodded, and kissed her deeply as he slowly sank himself into her heat. "Fuck, darling," he groaned, "you're so tight. It's been so long since we've stretched you out." He continued to thrust slowly and deeply into her, chasing both of their orgasms. When she came apart around him, he groaned and coated her inner walls.

He held himself over her and finally collapsed next to her, pulling her into his chest. He stroked her back as she fell into a restful slumber.


Present Day (6/16/1998)

She sat up and stared at him. "Do you know the spell?" she whispered.

"Lulu," Theo called, "can you perform the pregnancy detection spell?"

Lulu clapped excitedly and snapped her fingers, Hermione watched as a golden light appeared on her stomach. "You're around 2 months, Mistress. Would you like to be knowing if we're having a little Master or Mistress Malfoy?"

The three of them gaped at her and then looked at each other, "We're-" Hermione's choked out, "it's too soon, but we're going to have a baby! Draco, Theo!" The two men wrapped their arms around her and kissed her cheeks and neck and forehead and anywhere they could reach.

"Boy or girl, Lulu?" Draco finally asked.

"A boy of course," she said with a grin.

"Scorpius," the three of them said at the same time with a laugh.

Theo scooped her up and carried her to bed where he laid her down gently. Each man laid on each side of her and pressed their lips against her abdomen. "Hello Scorp," Draco said softly, "I'm your Pére. I'm so excited to meet you."

"And I'm your Papá," Theo said beaming at the two of them, "even if you will be a Malfoy." They all let out a laugh, but Hermione felt her heart grow a few sizes. The fact that both men would be Fathers to Scorpius and any and all babies afterward was something she never could have expected.

After a while, Hermione sighed, "We have a lot of planning to do, I didn't expect this to come so soon, and now…"

Theo looked at her, "I think we're going to have to introduce Draco as part of our marriage. There is no way that baby isn't coming out with his hair colour or eyes. At least we have seven months to come up with a plan."

Draco grinned, "I'll be so glad to not be your dirty little secret any longer."


I'm excited for Scorpius Malfoy, I'm pretty sure he's going to be Scorpius Theodore Malfoy (and the next baby boy will be SOMETHING Draco Nott). What do you think? I'm packing up my car with the last of my stuff today, and will be on the road for the next four-ish days so my chapters will probably be short.

Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think or if you have any thoughts about what might happen next!
