"Come on love! You can do it! You are doing so well."

"I can't do it Draco - you do it!"

"My love, if I could I would. It breaks my heart to see you in pain. But I know you can do this. You are Evee Malfoy and there is nothing you can't do!"

"Why did I ever agree to do this again? You think I would have learnt from the first time."

"You are nearly there Evee one more push."

You sat up and sucked in a deep breath. With every ounce of strength you had left in you, you pushed. 

"Wonderful, Evee! Wonderful."

"She is here, my love."

"She isn't crying, Draco."

"Evee-"

"Draco, why isn't she crying?"

Angelina whisked the tiny baby over to another side of the room where you couldn't see what she was doing. 

Your heart stopped as you listened and prayed. 

Draco held you, knowing you were thinking the exact same as he was.

Then came a faint wailing.

"She is fine. She just wanted to give us a little scare." Angelina assured you.

"So she is already a drama queen," Draco rolls his eyes.

"She gets it from you, you know."

"How very dare you!" Draco mocked hurt.

Angelina came back over with the tiniest little little bundle you had ever seen. The most beautiful little girl.

As Angelina performed a few healing spells on you and got your vitals as well as the baby's back to normal, you and Draco just stared at this precious little miracle you had been given.

When the twins were born, you suffered some complications. You lost a lot of blood and had to be rushed to theatre where you were given potions, had healing spells performed as well as a few muggle procedures performed. 

You remember nothing but waking up in your hospital suite about 8 hours later feeling very weak. You opened your eyes to see Draco holding both your babies in his arms. He looked like hell.

"You are awake," he beamed as he looked up at you. 

"I am," you smiled.

He stood up and kissed the top of your head. "Don't you ever do that to me again. I thought I had lost you."

"What happened?"

"You had a bleed that the healers couldn't stop. You ruptured your uterus. They weren't sure you would survive. But look at you, my little warrior."

You smile at him as pain hits you and keeps coming in waves. You try, unsuccessfully , not to show it.

At that moment, Angelina comes in to give you pain potions. "I am so glad to see you awake and to see colour in your cheeks. Here, take this for the pain. Stop trying to be brave and tell us when you are sore. That is what we are here for."

"Sorry, Angelina."

"Now, has Draco even let you look at your babies yet?"

"No, he is hogging."

Draco blushed. "Merlin, sorry, love." He leans forward and places both babies in your arms. You look up at him, beaming as he kisses your head and then each of his children. "We have a boy and a girl," he whispers.

You were in love. 4 precious little eyes, 20 fingers and 20 toes, 2 cute button noses, and perfect little lips. 

It was a few hours later that your friends and family had come to see you. Sans Harry and Hermione, who you heard were a little busy having their own baby. 

Pansy and Daphne, by now, were both pregnant, and Luna and Ginny were a few weeks from their due dates.

"Do you have names yet?" Theo said in between sobbing?

"Sloane Isla Malfoy for our little girl,"

"Asher River Malfoy for this little man." Draco said as he passed him to Ron.

"So beautiful," Luna sang as she hummed to Sloane.

"I couldn't decide on a girls name, so we will have to call our next little one, the other name I chose."

It wasn't until later that night after Harry announced the safe arrival of Greyson James Potter that you were told that there was a good chance you couldn't have more kids.

And yet here you were two years later holding your new little bundle - Bowie August Malfoy.

And she was perfect!

So much had changed since that night when Draco proposed. After twins were born, you and Draco got straight into wedding planning, and 6 months later, you were walking down the aisle surrounded by family and friends. 

A magical day.

Harry and Hermione had gotten married just before you and Luna and Blaise not long after. Pansy and Ron were a few months later.

By the time Bowie was born, there were quite a few kids in the group.

Harry and Hermione have Greyson Potter, followed by Lily Iris, and Hermione is pregnant with the third Potter in the clan.

Ron and Pansy had little Martha and little Louie, born just over 9 months apart. Like Hermione, Pansy was already pregnant...this time with twins.

Daphne and Theo had little Eloise. Theo was already eager for another baby, but Astoria was very ill at the minute, so Daphne was not in the same frame of mind. But one day.

Luna and Blaise have their little boy - Azar, your and Draco's godson. 

Ginny and Phoenix had their daughter Molly not long after Luna had Azar. Parenting was hard with Ginny still training with the Holyhead Harpies. The couple split up for over a year, and in that time, Phoenix actually had another baby, a little boy. They got back together after Ginny realised what a mistake she had made, and she is now step mom to Rylan.

So your little family, as you once called it had grown substantially and was getting bigger. Everyone was happy, and life was good.

Juggling your ministry job, being a mum and designing, eventually got a little full on, so you left your department within the Ministry in Hermione's care. And Narcissa has been working hard on your clothing lines - recently branching out into wedding dresses as everyone loved yours and Daphne's so much.

This was your dress...

Draco and you are as strong now as you have ever been. The love you have for him is limitless, and you know that he feels the same way - he tells you often enough. 

It may not have been the future you planned out for yourself. It may not have been what you wanted, but it was what you needed. 

As long as you have Draco, you will have all you need.
