Chapter 30. Epilogue
Hermione was sitting on her couch, with her feet up, trying to ease the swelling in her ankles. She glanced at the clock; Draco
had said that he had some errands to run but would be home by three o’clock and it was just a couple of minutes after that.
Smiling as she ran her hands over her swollen belly, she thought back to the previous year. The first year of their marriage.
For the most part, things had run smoothly. They got along well, but there were some fights occasionally. A time or two, Ginny
and Neville had gotten involved to resolve their fight. Two years ago, who would have thought that I would be married to Draco
Malfoy and happily expecting our first child?
She smiled as the baby kicked her again. She swore to Draco that it had to be a boy with as much torment as the baby was putting
her through. She could handle the nausea, the weird cravings, but having the baby sitting directly on her bladder was killing
her. I have to go to the loo every five minutes, it seems! But, she was content.
Today was their anniversary and Draco had said that he had something planned. She had rolled her eyes and told him that as long
as she didn’t have to move from her current position, whatever he did was fine.
She was drifting into a light doze when a pair of hands covered her eyes. “Draco,” she began in an exasperated tone.
“Hello to you, too,” he replied as he leaned over the back of the couch to kiss her lightly on the neck. Hermione felt the
familiar shivers run through her body. While things hadn’t been perfect for them sexually—she was still prone to the occasional
flashback—they were better than she had ever imagined.
“I’ve got a surprise for you,” he whispered in her ear.
Hermione leaned her head back and smiled. “I told you that as long as I don’t have to move, then its fine.” She shifted a bit to
ease the tension in her back, which had been having spasms all day.
Draco smirked. “You will have to move, just a bit,” he told her, helping her off the couch. Still holding onto her hand, he
guided her to the dining room of their house, which they had purchased after the sale of his house in Chelsea. They now lived in
a large house outside of Hogsmeade, both agreeing that it was worth it to live in the country and be close to Hogwarts. She still
owned her parents house, but after stripping it of anything magical, she was renting it out to Muggles.
Draco was the one that had suggested the idea, stating that it was something of her parents that she could still hold on to. He
told her to close her eyes as they neared the dining room, and carefully led her in.
When she opened her eyes, she gasped in surprise. The table was set with a multitude of candles and a romantic dinner for two was
set up. “Happy anniversary,” Draco whispered, hugging her from behind, while rubbing his hands across her belly.
“Draco, it’s wonderful. I love it,” she murmured softly. She was about to say more, when pain lanced across her stomach and the
twinges in her back that she had been feeling all afternoon intensified. “Oh…”
“Mia?” Draco asked, worry filling his voice. “What’s wrong?”
Hermione left out a gasp. “I think I’m in labour!” She turned her eyes to him. “Draco, I’m not due for another month,” she
said, panic filling her voice.
Draco felt ice plummet into his stomach. “That’s it. I’m taking you to St. Mungo’s.” He gathered her into his arms, which where
shaking with emotion and carefully carried her to the fireplace. Balancing her lightly, he grabbed a handful of Floo powder and
called out, “St. Mungo’s, birth ward!” then stepped into the green flames.
When he arrived at the hospital, a Mediwitch greeted him and quickly asked him about the situation. She assured him that
everything would be fine, before spiriting Hermione back to the emergency part of the ward, telling him to wait in the waiting
room. He paced back and forth in the room, and for the first time in a long time he was terrified. Terrified that they would
lose the baby, terrified that he would lose Hermione.
Within thirty minutes of arriving at the hospital, Ginny, Lee, Neville and Luna had all arrived and were watching him pace back
and forth.
“Draco,” Ginny said quietly into the silence. “She’ll be fine. It’s not unusual for first babies to come early.”
“I know,” was his monotone reply. “But the Mediwizard said that she was at high risk due to what happened to her. He warned us
that she couldn’t have any stress or she could lose the baby.”
Ginny bit her lip, praying that everything would turn out okay.
Finally, a couple of hours later, the Mediwitch that had checked Hermione in came to the waiting room. “I’m looking for the
family of Hermione Malfoy?”
Draco stood up reluctantly, not knowing what to expect. “I’m her husband.”
The witch smiled. “Congratulations, Mr. Malfoy, you have a healthy baby girl.”
Draco sighed in relief. “What about Hermione?”
The smile on the witch’s face disappeared. “I’m sorry to say that there were some complications.” Draco felt his knees buckle as
Lee and Neville caught him. “But, Mrs. Malfoy is fine. Unfortunately, she will no longer be able to bear children.”
Draco felt relief and regret course through him. Hermione and he had talked about having a houseful of children, but she was
okay. That was all that mattered. He swallowed hard. “May I see her?”
“Of course. She is in intensive care right now, so only one visitor at a time. Follow me.”
Draco nodded to the rest of the group before following the witch. When he got to Hermione’s room, he looked at her through the
glass before walking in. She looked happy, but her eyes told a different story. She was devastated.
She looked up and saw him. “Hi,” she said biting her lip.
“Hey. How are you?” he asked carefully.
Her eyes welled with tears. “I can’t have anymore children, Draco. They said the damage was too severe.”
Draco wrapped his arms around her. “Shush. It’s okay, Mia. You’re okay and that’s all that matters.”
She snuggled into his arms, sniffing. “Are you sure?”
Draco nodded before smiling. “Yes. We can always adopt more children, Mia.”
Hermione smiled, feeling a sense of relief wash over her as the nurse brought in their little girl. “Draco, I’d like you to meet
our daughter. Narcissa Alexis Malfoy,” she said as the witch handed him his daughter. He looked down with a look of adoration on
his face.
“Welcome to the world, Cissa. You’re mum helped to make it a safe place for you to live.”
Fini!
AN: Wow. I can’t believe that this is at an end. It’s been a long and sometimes arduous journey; from a crazy idea at
3am to a full completed story. I’m glad everyone stuck with me when I wasn’t able to write a single darn word!!! For everyone
that ever reviewed, thank you from the bottom of my heart. It’s you guys that convinced me to see this through to the end. And
for everyone that read, thank you for giving me a chance since this is my first completed Harry Potter Story! I will say right
now, that I have no plans for a sequel (I’ve neglected a series that I’ve been writing for way to long), but my muse is very
temperamental, so I will not rule anything out! Since I am not able to respond to reviews here, thank you so much to everyone
that reviews this final chapter!
Kazfeist – That they did! Thank you. I loved writing the wedding. I had so much fun with that! Thanks for all your reviews!
Smurphy – I’m glad that you were doing a happy dance! I loved writing that chapter. I think it was my favourite chapter to
write. Somehow I can totally see Ginny finding a way to make Lee pregnant. That would be hilarious because men just aren’t
equipped to deal with that kind of pain! Thanks for all your reviews!!!
