Chapter 15: Some News Coming Your Way

A small smile spread across Hermione’s face when the package was delivered to their apartment. She thanked the delivery guy and walked back in before sitting down on the couch and opening it. She had stayed home from work, because she knew the package would be delivered and she definitely didn’t want Draco to see it. She looked in the box and saw the end result, she smiled before closing the box again and placing it on the ground before getting up to make herself a nice cup of tea. She sat back down on the couch and took her Daily Prophet from the salon table before she started reading it. On the front page she saw Draco, Harry and Ron standing in the picture giving her a tough look. Hermione chuckled and read the headline “The best Aurors the wizarding world has ever had” she read. She rolled her eyes and then saw what was written under it.
“This new trio has done some amazing work for the safety of the Wizarding world, but what happened to the old Golden Trio? Harry Potter and Ron Weasley both became Aurors after they graduated from Hogwarts, but what happened to the only girl in this Golden Trio? Hermione Malfoy became a healer and works in St. Mungo’s to help people in another way then her two school friends. Are these three still friends? We, here at the Daily Prophet, happen to think that they still get to hear from each other and we came to that conclusion as for the fact that the third member of the new trio is Draco Malfoy, whom married, as we know her, Hermione Granger a year ago.”
Hermione sighed. She read the newspaper further before she placed it back on the salon table and getting up to hide the stuff that was in the box.
‘What’s a good place to hide it….’ Hermione thought as she got the stuff out of the box.
‘The wardrobe? No, he’ll notice. Between the laundry? No I’m not going to place it between his dirty underwear. Between the pads and tampons! Of course!’ Hermione thought as she walked to the closet and found her boxes of pads and tampons. She hid everything behind those boxes before closing the door. She laid down on her bed and switched on the TV and just two hours later Draco came home to a sleeping Hermione. A smile appeared on Draco’s face as he walked over to his wife and placed a soft kiss on her forehead before changing into something comfortable and closing the door behind him. Hermione woke up about half an hour later to the smell of pizza. She got out of bed and walked out of the room towards the living room where Draco was seated on the couch.
‘Good evening milady.’ Draco smiled.
‘You’ve got pizza?’ Hermione questioned.
Draco chuckled.
‘Yes, come here.’ He said motioning for her to come over and sit next to him.
Draco opened the pizza box as she sat down beside him and she got a piece out.
‘You’ve ordered my favourite?’ Hermione asked surprised.
‘Of course I did.’ Draco said.
‘You’re the best!’ Hermione exclaimed as she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
‘I know, I know.’ Draco smirked.
Hermione rolled her eyes as she took a bite of her pizza.
‘Are you feeling better?’ Draco asked.
‘The sleeping and the tea slightly helped, so that’s a good thing.’ Hermione said.
‘Are you staying home tomorrow?’ Draco asked rubbing small circles on her back.
‘I don’t think so.’ Hermione said.
‘Are you sure? Because,’ Draco faked a cough. ‘I think I’m getting sick myself.’
Hermione chuckled and placed her hand against his forehead.
‘Yep, you’re feeling quite feverish babe, I think it’s better if you’d stay home tomorrow.’ Hermione said.
‘Oh but who’s going to take care of me?’ Draco asked.
‘Well duty calls at home apparently.’ Hermione said.
Draco smirked and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
‘You know we really can’t do that, right?’ Hermione asked.
‘Yes we can, we’re both sick! If we go to our jobs we’ll make other people sick!’ Draco said.
Hermione shook her head laughing.
‘You’re crazy Malfoy.’ Hermione said.
‘Crazy about you.’ Draco said.
Hermione chuckled.
‘How was work today?’ Hermione asked.
‘It was fine.’ Draco shrugged.
‘Ginny called, she invited us for dinner tomorrow night.’ Hermione said.
‘Tomorrow’s Friday right?’ Draco asked.
Hermione nodded.
‘Okay, sure.’ Draco said.
