The Marriage Law

Good News

Everything was going smoothly.
Two months passed by and the trio of Harry, Hermione and Draco were living very happily. They organised couple or triple dates whenever the schedule allowed and used every opportunity to reproduce.

Hermione was used to sleeping with one of her husband and waking up in the arms of the other one. Her classes were mainly theoretical except for potions at this point and she had no difficulty coping with things at the Healer's academy.

She even made a couple of new friends.

One such morning, she wasn't feeling very well. The witch had doubts but she didn't want to raise any hopes if it came out that she wasn't pregnant so she decided to shrug the symptoms for now until she could schedule an appointment with a healer or visit a muggle store for a pregnancy kit.

Her morning classes went by smoothly and she was just helping one of her classmates, Pierre, in their free time when another student came rushing in the courtyard.

"Miss. Granger! Someone is here for you. "

She was immediately followed by rushed footsteps and Hermione looked behind the girl to see two familiar men walking up to her.

" 'Mione! We need to go."

The brunette hastily retracted her hand from Pierre's wrist and frowned up at Harry and Draco.

"This is urgent. We've already informed your head teacher."

Hermione gave an apologetic look to Pierre as Draco pulled her up from her sitting posture by her wrist.

Harry led the way to the floo as Draco pulled their wife alongside. They all stumbled through the grate at their home and the witch immediately retracted her wrist.

"What happened? "

She questioned as a sudden wave of dizziness made her stumble on her feet.
Draco quickly gathered her in his arms and gently pulled her over to the couch to sit.

"Are you okay? "

Hermione looked at her husbands with a grimace and nodded.

"I'm fine. Tell me what was so urgent? "

"Uhh... ".

Harry and Draco looked at each other uncertainly and sighed before Harry started.

" I got a special visit from Kingsley today. He told me that the results of the marriage law weren't as expected. He wanted to know if you were pregnant. If they could release the positive news, it would boost public morale and they could extend the dates for other couples, seeing we're We, you know? .... And well, when I told him we were trying, he's... He's basically said he'd add our names in the reshuffling list next month and legally dissolve our marriage..."

The witch gaped at him in alarm before surprisingly, tears started rolling off her eyes.

" I... We can't... Please-"

She shook her head trying to deny it.

"It's okay Hermione. They can't do it. Didn't I tell-"

"Draco! .. Harry!.. Please... I don't want them to... I love you... I can't...I love you-"

The witch was suddenly cut off when Harry sealed her trembling lips with his own and held her in place until she calmed down.

"It's okay Hermione. I love you too... We both do... Don't panic just yet okay. Draco told us before we got married, didn't he? No one can dissolve our marriage but we can't stop them from entering our names again... Is there any chance that we're pregnant yet? "
