Life as we know it...

Chapter 12: An Anniversary Gift.

She began fussing over Fleur immediatley. "What happened? Have you been having contractions?!"

"Yes for a while, but I zought zey vere just cramps!" Fleur cried and buckled over as a severe contraction hit.

There was immediate chaos. Bill was panicking, Ginny and Dean ran to get her parents and Audrey. Harry was writing to Madame and Monsieur Delacour. Draco and Ron ran to get Madam Pomfrey. George, Angelina and Seamus went to inform Professor McGonagall and ask for permission to floo Fleur to St. Mungo's. Luna was holding Fleurs hand as another contraction hit. Katie, who was a healer, reassured Fleur she was going to be ok. Hermione and Cho were getting Fleur comfortable and Rolf and Blaise was trying to explain to Goyle about what was happening.

Mrs. Weasley appeared in her nightgown, with Audrey, Madam Pomfrey and Professor McGonagall. Audrey, Katie and Madam Pomfrey began to access Fleurs situation and find out how far along she was. They came to the conclusion that she was too far along to floo, or to carry to a point where she could apparate so they decided to deliver the baby in the hospital wing.

Initially Fleur panicked, Madam Pomfrey assured her that quite a few babies had been born in the infirmary. While this was happening McGonagall was getting everyone else to perform a levitation charm to see had the most steady hand making it more comfortable for Fleur when they moved her. Which was unsurprisingly Draco and Hermione.

The pair levitated her to the hospital wing, both still in their wedding outfits. They walked slowly, stopping every hundred feet to make sure Fleur was ok.

Mrs. Weasley who was by far the most experienced in this area, assured Fleur that she had three medically educated women with her and that they were going to get a specialized healer from St. Mungo's to floo over.

As soon as they reached the hospital wing everyone except Bill, Mrs. Weasley, Ginny, Katie and Audrey were made to leave. Draco and Hermione went back to their living quarters both exhausted from the long day. They changed out of their extravagant outfits.

Before Hermione could put on her pajamas Draco had her pinned against the wall. Kissing her from her lips to her collar bone, nibbling on her ear. All of these things filled Hermione with lust. She pushed him onto the bed, she sat on top of him straddling him. Kissing him hungrily. Begging for more with each small kiss. Things escalated. They didn't just have sex, they made love. Which they continued doing until mid-morning when they fell asleep.

At about one o' clock Draco awoke with his arms slinked around Hermione's bare body. There she was, his wife, Hermione Malfoy. He pushed her long, dark, waved hair away from her face. She was still glowing, that radiant shine. He moved to go into the bathroom downstairs. Hermione woke up noticing the absence of her husband. She smiled. Her husband. She woke up and went down to the bathroom to shower. Draco was in there, she decided to join him.

After their shower they prepared to go visit Fleur and see if she was still in labour before they reached the portrait door, Ginny rushed in huffing and puffing from lack of breath.

"Fleur had a healthy baby girl an hour and a half ago. 8 pounds 4 onces." She huffed out collapsing on the couch.

"Aww!" Hermione squealed.

"How's Bill holding up?" Draco chuckled.

Ginny laughed. "Fleur broke his hand, but he's alright Madam Pomfrey gave him a Skelegrow potion. Fleurs resting now but you can probably go visit her this evening."
