Hermione's POV

So today is the day that Narcissa, Draco, and I begin planning our engagement announcement party into further detail. This may sound peculiar, but I love anything that requires lists or planning; the lists allow me to be able to organize ideas in a collective way; and the planning lets me dictate what I would like out of an event. I do appreciate Narcissa's input on the party, she is like a second mother to me, unlike my own mother. I'm so hurt that my own parents don't accept my engagement, because of me. I haven't heard that term come out of my own parents' mouths, which does hurt more than as if it came from Snarkinson. Oh well, the past is in the past.

"Draco, we need to leave in 10 minutes!!! Your hair looks fine, I'm a girl and even I don't spend an hour on my hair!!" Planning this party has stressed me out a tiny bit.....

"I will be down before you can say Wingardiun Leviosa, my dear!" He replied back. He eventually came downstairs and kissed me passionately. "Have mercy! You are so beautiful and I can't believe you're mine."

I'm not sure what he is talking about; I'm just wearing a pair of black leggings, a tie dye t-shirt that says "Nebraska" on the front, and a pair of bright Crimson colored Nike sneakers.

"We need to go now, Draco, your mother is expecting us to be there at 1:00 and it is 12:49 right now!" Yeah, I am pretty stressed over everything.

"Are you forgetting that we can apparate? We did go to Hogwarts after all." Draco says with that dang smirk of his, knowing that he is right.

"Not the smirk, you know I can't stand that smirk!" I yell, failing epically at attempting to be angry at him.

*******Time Skip to Narcissa's****
"Well if it isn't my dashing son and his wonderful fiancée, Hermione. Come in before you catch a chill! It's only 4 degrees out here!!" Narcissi exclaimed before pulling us inside and into a bear hug.

After lunch, I began speaking my ideas for the engagement party. "So, I don't think it should be a huge party, as we won't want to make anyone suspicious as to why all of our school friends are now showing up in the muggle world at the same time." I explained to Draco and Narcissa.

I smiled when both Draco and Narcissa nodded in agreement. "That seems like a good idea babe, now who would you like to invite?" Draco asked me.

"Not too many people, only some of our friends. Harry and Ginny Potter with their three children, Ron and Cho Weasley with their two children, Neville and Luna Longbottom with their four children, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, my twins and younger daughter, Draco's three sons, my best friend Shania Danaher and her boyfriend Jonathan Bufalino and obviously you, Mrs. Malfoy. So 26 guests in all." I listed off the names, all while making sure not to forget anyone.

After planning some minor details for the wedding itself, we departed to pick up some decorations for the party when I saw the last person I wanted to see. Blaise. My ex, an old flame, the father of my children. The man I left after he hurt me.

"Draco, come on. I think we have everything thing that we need." I began panicking as he approached me, but calmed down when I saw my beautiful children. Colin and Isabelle, my 16 year old twins; and also Paige, my 10 year old daughter.

Before I knew it, I was pushing past Blaise and his new mistress, who just so happens to be Pansy, to make sure my children didn't get hurt by those monsters. I saw Isabelle's slightly raised stomach and knew exactly what happened.

I turned towards Blaise in a blind rage, despite Draco's protests. "YOU!!! YOU FOUL LOATHSOME EVIL LITTLE COCKROACH!!!!!!!! How could you do this to your own flesh and blood, let alone my flesh and blood? I knew I should have filed for custody and had you locked up years ago!" After my rage, I pulled Isabelle into a hug and held her as she began sobbing into my chest.

"Mummy, please help me. I don't want him or her hurting my child. Please take my siblings and I with you and Draco." She began pleading and my heart broke at seeing her hurt so badly.

I looked at Draco as he was nodding in approval. He then put a comforting hand on my shoulder and whispered in my ear. "Honey, I'm going to take you home and I will go to the Ministry afterwards to press charges and give you full custody of them. After that, I will deal with Mr. Zabini." I nodded and took them to the car.

****Time skip to the party****
"Here's to my best friend who isn't Ron on her engagement to Draco. I wish you both the best in life and hope things go smoothly." Harry sat down and held Ginny's hand while the rest of the guests began chatting.

I walked over to where my daughters were speaking with Ginny, Luna,Cho, and Shania. As I got closer, I realized they were playfully arguing over who was the prettiest. "Ladies, you're all pretty. I have something to ask you all."

"Yes mum?" Paige asked with curiosity. "I want you all to be bridesmaids, except for Paige, who will be the flower girl."

  They all looked shocked, until Luna spoke up. "We would be absolutely honoured Hermione." I sighed in relief and hugged them all, being mindful of Isabelle's stomach.  

After the conversation with the other women, I pulled Shania off to the side. "Shania, you have always been one of my best friends and have been there for me through the toughest times. You were there the day I found out I was pregnant with Colin and Isabelle; you convinced me that I could handle them and not give them up for adoption; you were the one who convinced me to walk away from Blaise's abuse and to get my children out of that situation; you were in my first wedding; and you were the one that convinced me to talk to Draco for the first time after I told you that I had a big crush on him. Now that I am marrying Draco, I wanted to ask if you would be the matron of honour?" She was silent, until she hugged me and started squealing.

"I can't believe you asked me to be your matron of honour!!!! I would be delighted!!! You are such a great friend Hermione! Thank you so much!" She then hugged me one last time before going to Ginny to ask about the Holyhead Harpies.

Later that night, Draco was talking about how Snape agreed to perform the ceremony, also how his sons, Ron, Harry, and Neville all agreed to be groomsmen, with Jonathan being Draco's best man.  I called Colin earlier and her agreed to give me away, since my father and I are not on any sort of good terms at the moment. 

After the stressful and long day, I'm not afraid to admit, falling asleep in my fiancé's arms was pure bliss to say the least.

Ok guys! Remember this book? I am not putting this book on hiatus, as I now have ideas to the book. It won't be seven books with 20 parts each, but just one book with an undetermined amount of chapters.

@MsHarte_Slythindork, you sent a very detailed autobiography that I enjoyed reading. So the part is yours.


Hermione and Blaise were married? With three children? Blaise raped his daughter? Draco has three children?
