There's More To You Than You Let On

Chapter 25; Graduation

It's been a few months and the 8th and 7th years were graduating. Hermione woke up early with her 6th month pregnant belly, along with Draco. They took a shower and quickly got ready and packed. They met up with Ginny, Blaise, Theo, Pansy, and Astoria in the entrance hall wearing their graduation outfits. Harry and Ron stood across the hall from them because they still weren't on speaking terms with Ron. Harry had apologized for everything and not helping Hermione the day after the incident, plus Harry and Ginny were happily back together.

Everyone was talking and laughing about the memories they had this year when Luna skipped over. "Hello, everyone."

"Hi, Luna," They greeted.

"How are you, Luna?" Hermione asked.

"I'm wonderful," She smiled. "How are you?"

"I'm good, thanks. Are you excited for graduation?" She asked.

"I am."

"What are you going to do after?" Pansy asked.

"I'm going to help dad with the Quibbler," She smiled. "And all of you?"

"I've been offered a spot as Chaser for the Holyhead Harpies," Ginny said proudly.

"Wow that's great, Ginny," Everyone said.

"I'm going to try and be a healer," Blaise said.

"That's wonderful."

"I'll probably get a job at the Ministry," Hermione said.

"Astoria and I have no bloody idea what we're going to do." Theo stated making everyone giggle a little.

"Umm I'll probably be a hooker," Pansy said making everyone laugh.

"No you will not," Theo huffed, pulling her to his chest.

"For real though, I'll probably be like a bartender or something," She said. "Like at the Leaky Cauldron."

"And you Draco?" Luna asked.

"I'm going to live off my family fortune for the rest of my life," He said making Hermione roll her eyes.

"You'll be broke in two days with the money you'll spend on Hermione and the baby."

"Speaking of, did you find a name for the baby?" Pansy asked.

"Yes, but Draco still wants it to be names Scorpius," Hermione said making him roll his eyes.

"What are you naming it?" Blaise asked.

"Hugo. Hugo Draco Malfoy," Hermione smiled, looking down at her stomach.

"That's so cute," Ginny said.

"Thanks." Hermione smiled. Draco just pouted and kissed her head.

"Well Luna, before you came over we were sharing our favorite memories at Hogwarts, do you want to share yours?" Draco asked.

"Oh, that's easy. My favorite memory was learning how to conjure patronuses in the D.A. during 5th year," She smiled.

"Oh yeah, that was fun," Hermione and Ginny said making Blaise, Pansy, Theo, Astoria, and Draco share confused looks.

"My favorite memory was Harry and I's first kiss, after I caught the snitch, winning us the game, because Harry had detention. I had ran up to him in the common room and hugged him and he kissed me," Ginny said. All the girls awed.

"My favorite memory was 3rd year and watching Hermione punch Draco in the face," Theo said making everyone laugh except Draco who instantly raised his hand to his noise and squinted as if he could still feel the pain.

"Mine was the same year except it was when that hippogriff had attacked him and he started whining about how it killed him during Care of Magical Creatures," Blaise laughed.

"Ok we get it, y'all get happiness from my pain," Draco spoke with an eye roll making everyone laugh.

"I always like the parties in the Slytherin common room," Pansy said.

"Me too," Astoria agreed.

"What about you, Hermione?" Luna asked.

"Oh, I don't know. There's too many," She said.

"No you have to choose," Pansy said. Hermione sighed and laid her head back on Draco's chest as he wrapped his arms around her.

"Probably this moment, right now. Just all of us together and happy," She smiled. They stood in silence for awhile before there was loud voices.

"Excuse us! Excuse us! Coming through!" Shouted the familiar voice of Mrs. Weasley. Her, Mr. Weasley, George, Bill, Fleur, their daughter Victoire, Percy, Teddy, and Narcissa made their way through the crowd over to them. Narcissa hugged everyone, where as the Weasleys only hugged Hermione and Ginny. Teddy hugged Hermione, Ginny, and Draco. They were all introduced to each other and Narcissa whipped out her camera. She took a photo of just Draco and Hermione then just the girls then just the boys and lastly all of them together.

"Everyone say 'Graduation!'," She instructed as she took the photo. "Wonderful."

"Hermione, look at how much you've grown!" Bill said. Hermione instantly smiled down at her stomach before looking up at Draco to see him also grinning.

"How far along are you?" Fleur asked.

"Almost 7 months," Hermione smiled.

"Congratulations, Mione," George said after walking over to join the conversation.

"Thank you," She smiled before turning back to Bill and Fleur. "How's Victoire?"

"She's wonderful. She and Teddy have gotten a lot closer if you know what a mean." They all looked over at Teddy and Victoire to see him kissing her hand making her blush.

"It's the Black in him," Narcissa said as she rubbed Draco's head making his hair messy. "Runs in my boy too." She winked at Hermione before Draco started to swat her hands away from his head making everyone laugh.

"Well we better go say hello to Ron and Harry. See you all later." Mr. Weasley said, leading the rest of the Weasleys over to where Harry and Ron were talking. Ginny followed also, leaving just Hermione, Narcissa, Draco, Pansy, Astoria, Blaise, and Theo to talk.

"What do you think you got on your N.E.W.T.s?" Astoria asked.

"Hermione got all 'O's I expect," Blaise said.

"Course she did, even with all the classes she missed," Draco commented.

"Well you best hope you got all 'O's too, cause Hermione might just dump you if you don't," Astoria joked.

"Course I did, with Hermione standing over my shoulder making sure I did everything right on my homework and got all the right answers when we did flash cards," Draco spoke.

"Oh, shut up," Hermione groaned while rolling her eyes. He just smiled and kissed her forehead.

After a few minutes Professor McGonagall walked out of the Great Hall. As everyone got into a bunch in front of her she turned and led everyone inside after speaking the words that she spoke to them all too many years ago.

"We're ready for you now."
