The Baby Project || dramione

Ten

Draco walked through the door and into the house after he was done with his morning classes. All the returnees had been given the rest of the afternoon off, so they had gotten permission from McGonagall to take their children off of Hogwarts property and to a nearby beach.

The first thing he saw when he entered the house was his son and daughter who were both already in their bathing suits, lying on the couch watching some kids show. His daughter was in a pink, one-piece (thankfully to Draco) with pineapples on it.

And his son was in a pair of blue and white swim trunks that had anchors on it.

Draco made his way to the bedroom, only to find the door locked.

"Hold on, baby! Mummy's almost ready," Hermione said through the door, thinking it was one of their two children who wanted in.

"It's Draco," he said, a smirk forming on his face because he could just picture the big blush that was currently spreading over Hermione's.

"Oh, sorry. I'll be done in a minute and then you can get changed."

Draco nodded at her response even though she couldn't see him and went to sit down next to his children as he waited. They were watching a show with dogs and this one kid who seemed to rescue people. He wondered why the town would need a kid and dogs to rescue them, could they not get older, more qualified people? Draco believed the show was called Paw Patrol, at least that's what tv called it anyway.

A few minutes later Hermione came out of their room wearing a mint colored t-shirt dress and a black bikini underneath.

When she walked out and into the kitchen to prepare some snacks for their trip, Draco got up and went into the bedroom to change. He came out seconds later wearing blue and white swim trunks.

. . .

"Danielle, Scorpius!" Hermione yelled out after her children who had rushed down with the other kids to the beach, leaving the parents behind on the little boardwalk.

"James, Albus, Lily!" Ginny yelled after her, just as upset that her own children didn't follow their rules.

The children stopped in their tracks, turning around to face their upset mothers.

"What did we tell you about leaving our sides until we got to our spot?" Ginny asked the five children.

"B-But we saw Aunt Pansy, Aunt Luna, Uncle Ron, and Uncle Blaise," James spoke up, a bit embarrassed about being yelled at by his mum.

"Yes, but we still asked you to stay by us," Hermione said softly. After that the nine of them continued to walk toward the others, who had surprisingly gotten there a few minutes before them.

Once the beach umbrellas were up and the beach chairs were laid out, the children were finally aloud to go out and play in the water.

"Keep your floaties on!" Hermione called out. "Draco, make sure they keep their floaties on."

"Yes, Hermione," he responded, chuckling at the look on his sons face.

Harry, Ron, Draco, and Blaise had all said that they would take the kids out to swim first, leaving Hermione, Ginny, Pansy, and Luna the chance to tan on the beach without having to worry.
