10 Anniversary

Chapter 3

Hermione's POV

Tomorrow was the party in which I had to go, being a guest of honor.

" Draco I don't know.." I say.

" Mione you have to. You know everyone expects you to be there." He says kindly taking my hand.

" It's not that.. its Ronald. I haven't talked to him in ten years. He probably expects me to be single since he broke my heart, left the country. He probably thinks I'm not as rich and powerful, he probably thinks I work in a library in a decent flat, not rich living in a mansion married with two children." I say.

" Ronald is an asshole. He left behind one of the most beautiful and wonderful person I've met." He says cupping my cheek.

" If you said that to yourself seventeen years ago you would've never believed it. You would've called yourself a blood traitor for marrying a Muggle born, well you would've said mudblood-"

" I don't want to hear that. It pains me to remember I used to call you that. I regret it now and I am not sure how I ever did." He says.

I smile and he kisses me as I see Scorpio running around. I pick up Phoenix who was laying down playing with a toy that hung above her. Draco chases down Scorpio. I can hear both of their laughter as I see Draco having slipped on a blanket falling right in front of Scorpio. He patted his father's head several times before sticking his fingers in his mouth running away again. Draco eventually caught up and walked over.

" If Ronald can't see what he's missed, he's just as stupid as I was in our first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and the year of the battle. I was a complete asshole those seven years. The War changed me for the better. I fell in love with you, and I've begun my redemption helping people at St. Mungo's. You work in the Ministry as the person who gets to make all the calls next to Kingsley, while my best friend advises you, who is married to the she-weasel, Ginny." He says.

" Yea I Guess. But right now we need to get all these little guys to bed. " I say.

He smiles and we walk upstairs. Draco lies down with Scorpio as I put Phoenix in her crib. I walk into Scorpio's room and see him poking Draco who fell asleep. I roll my eyes and pick up Scorpio going to our bedroom. I put him down and he yawns snuggling into the covers falling asleep. I smile and turn out the light falling asleep myself as well.
