RECAP

"Damn it Granger, I'm falling in love with you!" Draco yelled, his face turning an unruly shade of red.

"You're... You're w-what?"

. . .

"I'm falling in love with you," Draco said again, moving himself to sit on the bed. He put his head in his hands and rubbed his eyes a bit before looking up at Hermione.

"I-I'm falling for you too," Hermione whispered, a blush creeping up her face. She went and sat next to him, completely forgetting about the book she was planning to read.

"Really?"

"Really."

"Fuck it," Draco mumbled before grabbing her face into his hands and smashing his lips onto hers. Hermione, surprised at the sudden action, sat completely still before slowly starting to kiss him back.

Draco's hands moved up to her head, one being planted right on the back pushing her toward him and the other running up and down her face in a soothing way. Hermione's hands went to his hair, tugging him toward her.

They sat on the bed snogging for a good five minutes before pulling back and staring at each other, lips swollen and cheeks burnt red.

"W-Well we best get s-some sleep," Hermione stumbled out. "You've got a big Quidditch match tomorrow."

Draco nodded, not wanting to talk about what had just happened, and moved to his side of the bed, laying down and turning out his light. Soon enough soft snores could be heard from his side and Hermione giggled to herself before undoing the silencing charm on their room and turning off her own light.

. . .

Hermione woke up to an empty bed. She was a bit disappointed but got over it, figuring Draco just wanted to get a head start on the long day ahead of him.

She quickly changed into a pair of denim jeans and faded Gryffindor shirt before slipping on some socks. After quickly brushing her teeth and hair, she walked out of the room to find her children dressed and sat in front of the tv watching some show.

Hermione silently thanked Draco for getting the two ready before making her way into the kitchen.

"Scorp, Dani, do you two want to eat breakfast here or in the Great Hall today?" Hermione asked, wishing for the latter since she didn't feel like cooking.

"Great Hall," The two children responded.

"Fantastic," Hermione smiled. "Let's go then."

She wandlessly turned off the tv before slipping on a pair of vans and helping the two with their own shoes as well. The three then walked out of their little house and outside toward the castle where all the other students were already inside eating.

Since it was the first Quidditch match of the season, all classes had been canceled for the day. This meant that day care for the children had also been cancelled since at least one parent per pair would be available.

Hermione, Luna, and Pansy were left alone with their children for the day since their partners were all playing in today's Gryffindor vs. Slytherin match. They were also in charge of watching Harry and Ginny's triplets since they were both playing in the game.

The three were all back in the Parenting Ward as they had decided to get together so the kids could all play with each other while they waited for the match to start. They talked as they watched over the children play.

"How're you guys doing with Blaise and Ron?" Hermione asked.

"Blaise and I are fantastic," Luna said in her normal dreamy state. "It's been fairly easy. We're so lucky to only have little Elizabeth."

"How lucky for you," Pansy joked. She had to deal with Ron and triplets. Hermione honestly felt sorry for the girl.

"I bet Ron hasn't been that much of a help," Hermione spoke.

"Oh no, he has. He's great. I was actually surprised at how helpful he's been."

"Seriously? The Ronald Weasley has been helpful with children?"

"I know! I couldn't believe it either," Pansy laughed. "Shocked all of us."

"So, Hermione, how's Draco?" Luna asked smiling.

Hermione blushed and looked down, wringing her hands together. "He's good. Helps a lot with the children. He's really changed for the better."

"Mhmm, anything else?" Pansy asked, wiggling her eyebrows.

"You two already know, don't you?" Hermione groaned, knowing there was no way she'd be able to get out of speaking about it now.

"Yep!" Luna exclaimed excitedly. "Blaise told me and I told Pansy!"

"So? How was it?"

Hermione blushed, her face turning an unruly shade of red. "It was good. Bit of a shock though since I wasn't expecting it, but good."

"Just good?" Pansy snorted. "This is Draco Malfoy we're talking about here."

"Fine! It was fantastic. I can't really describe it, honestly. He has this way with his mouth. Indescribable he is."

"That's what I thought," Pansy smirked.

The girls continued to talk until it was time to head out for the match.

. . .

"Harry Potter has caught the snitch! Gryffindor wins!" Lee Jordan shouted into the microphone.

Hermione cheered with the rest of the Gryffindors for a good minute before taking both of her children's hands into her own. She walked with them down the stairs of the stands and onto the field where she gave Harry a hug.

"Congratulations Harry, you played a great game!"

"Thanks 'Mione," Harry smiled before walking over to where Luna was with his children. Ginny was already over there collecting hugs from them all.

Hermione then quickly turned around when she felt the loss of a hand in hers and the sound of Danielle yelling out 'daddy'. She watched the girl run into the arms of the Slytherin Quidditch uniform clad boy.

"Danielle!" Hermione scolded when she reached her daughter with Scorpius in tow. "You can't just run away like that, sweetie. It's not safe."

"Sorry mummy," Danielle said before snuggling more into the hold of her father.

Hermione looked up at the sweaty, blonde boy before giving him a small smile. "Good game today, Draco."

"Thanks, love." He smiled back. "Think I need a little cheering up though, we did lose after all. How's a kiss sound?"

Hermione laughed and shook her head before planting a kiss on his cheek.

"I'm still feeling a bit down. Let me try this time." Draco then sat Danielle down much to her dismay and pulled Hermione into his arms. His hands moved up to her hair and he leaned his forehead on hers before attaching his lips to hers. "That's better."

Hermione blushed and looked down to find her children staring up at her with big smiles on their faces. Apparently they liked seeing their parents kissing.
