Chapter 4- Please Keep My Secret

Hermione POV

"Hermione your children, Scorpius, Athena and Orion are they.... Are they Draco's children?" Minerva said, her voice was wobbling a little and I looked up at her with tears pouring down my face.

"Yes... Yes they are, I don't know how people don't just look at them and know. How they don't just see him, they all look like him. But especially her, especially Athena, her face, her eyes, let alone her hair. She has the Malfoy blonde hair. They are so much like him in some ways and are so smart like him. They have me in them to..." I'd never said any of it out loud let alone told anyone.

"Draco has children!" I looked again to professor Snape and he looked like he was getting a bit upset and was smiling now in a way I had never seen and couldn't help but be taken aback. "Does he know?" He spoke again, looking at me very intently. I cast my eyes quickly to my old headmaster and Minerva.

"Yes he does.. And no I never told him. Do you think he ever would have let me leave had he known? After I found out I got a few things in order, packed up my things and broke it off and ran, literally ran from him. I was so scared after the war and everything that had happened.." I couldn't stop crying and I felt the same constant stabbing of guilt I had get for the last 16 years but this time so much worse after seeing him, after looking into his eyes and saying nothing but running. "I know what I did was horrible and so cruel to take it all away from him and to take him away from his kids. To take them away from Harry, from Ginny, From Ron and all the Weasleys and my friends. To leave with no goodbye, I was so sure Ginny would hex me when I walked in, so sure she'd hate me for leaving but all she did was smile and cry. I saw what could only be her kids one with messy black hair and emerald eyes and the other with her firy auburn hair, laughing and smiling with my children. My heart broke I'd taken them away from not just their dad but friends and what would and should have been their family." I was sobbing now, I could feel it shake my body and was surprised when a set of hands pulled me into a hug and was surprised when I realised it was Minerva. When she pulled back I could see the tears in her eyes.

"Hermione you were doing what you thought was best and you can't be so hard on yourself. You were 18, scared and had just been through what no one should ever have to go through. No one ever held you in hate or malice for leaving, they just missed you. We all did." She said while wiping away any tears that had managed to escape and was now straightening herself up.

"He won't hate you Mrs Ganger, he'll be upset and hurt but he won't hate you. I don't think he ever stopped loving you or looking for you. He never dated or married anyone else. I never knew who he'd spent all these years searching for and waiting for. I'm glad it was you." Severus said looking at me with care and it sent a jolt of comfort through me and I couldn't help but be surprised at his words.

"I hope you are right, I really do. But I need to think about how to tell him and the kids so please, I'm begging you please keep my secret and I know how much that is asking of you all!" I said looking at them through pleading eyes.

"We will." They said in unison. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulder finally letting it all out to someone, finally saying it all out loud.

Draco POV

I knew she'd be here, in what could of easily been her home during our year's at Hogwarts. I couldn't help but smile as I watched her and could see a small smile on her face, one that until last night I hadn't seen in 16 year's but had never ever forgotten. She looked gorgeous with her long brown hair in soft curls down her back.

"Hermione." I said her name out loud for the first time in what felt like a lifetime. I watched her go stiff and freeze as soon as I said her name. As she slowly started to turn around I felt like the wind had been knocked out of me. Chocolate brown eyes meeting grey for the first time in a long time. I wanted so much to reach out for her but before I even had a chance she was off running. Running like hell was chasing her.

"Hermione. HERMIONE WAIT!" I called after her, watching her run away from me again like she had all those years before. She ran away from me, again. I didn't even get to say anything more then her name. I sighed before turning around and walking away and towards the great hall where I knew breakfast would be in full swing. I had just walked into the entrance hall when I saw them all walk in, on their way to breakfast. Ginny and Harry Potters children, along with several Weasley's but they wern't who had my attention it was the two of the new kids, two of Hermione's children. And for the first time I wondered who their father was, who had been lucky enough to be with Hermione.

Another group walked over to join them and I watched her embrace her two brothers, Athena and for a moment was surprised by her platinum blonde hair that I hadn't noticed was so blonde last night. And then as if noticing I was looking at them, she turned to look at me and I felt all the life go out of me. She looked like her mum, her face did except her storm grey eyes which were full of curiosity and staring straight back at me. Her eyes... My mind stopped and I quickly looked at the boy standing on her left who I believed was Scorpius... Scorpius... He had blonde hair but not as white blonde as his sister and his eyes were the same stormy grey but had flecks of brown which had obviously come from their mother. He was smirking at his sister and Dominique Weasley, a smirk that I knew to well. I then looked lastly at Orion who was laughing loudly with Preston Zabini, my godson. His hair was dirty blonde and his eyes were almost completely chocolate brown but still had the flecks of grey. I looked back to Athena who was still watching me and turned and started to walk away. It couldn't be, she wouldn't.

Athena's POV

I walked down the hall with Scorpius, Lily, James, Dominique, Rose and Violet. We paused just outside the great hall waiting for Orion, Preston and a few others. I felt like I'd known them all my whole life and was excited to find mum and talk to her. Also more determined then ever to find out who our father was but still unable to shake away James's words from the common room. I could feel someones eyes on me and turned and there he was Professor Malfoy and as soon as my eyes met his he looked like he'd seen a ghost. I could see his features better today then last night due to him only being several meters away his eyes were steely grey and I looked at my brother quickly and the eye colour was uncanny, the same colour I knew my own to be. He looked at both my brothers for a several minutes each, the look on his face I couldn't quite put my finger on. He looked at me one more time before looking away. And I couldn't help but think maybe it was possible. I looked at Scorpius who was watching me closely.

"Scorp I think it is possible, James might have been joking but I think he was on to something." I said looking at him pleading for him to help me and understand.

"Ok Thia we'll talk to Orion about it and then well work something out, promise." He said before throwing his arm over my shoulder and pulling me into a hug the same way he and our brother always did, to make me feel better.

"We need to talk to mum to." I said as we all started to walk into the great hall and sat down at the Gryffindor table.
