She began fussing over Fleur immediatley. "What happened? Have you been having contractions?!"

"Yes for a while, but I zought zey vere just cramps!" Fleur cried and buckled over as a severe contraction hit.

There was immediate chaos. Bill was panicking, Ginny and Dean ran to get her parents and Audrey. Harry was writing to Madame and Monsieur Delacour. Draco and Ron ran to get Madam Pomfrey. George, Angelina and Seamus went to inform Professor McGonagall and ask for permission to floo Fleur to St. Mungo's. Luna was holding Fleurs hand as another contraction hit. Katie, who was a healer, reassured Fleur she was going to be ok. Hermione and Cho were getting Fleur comfortable and Rolf and Blaise was trying to explain to Goyle about what was happening.

Mrs. Weasley appeared in her nightgown, with Audrey, Madam Pomfrey and Professor McGonagall. Audrey, Katie and Madam Pomfrey began to access Fleurs situation and find out how far along she was. They came to the conclusion that she was too far along to floo, or to carry to a point where she could apparate so they decided to deliver the baby in the hospital wing.

Initially Fleur panicked, Madam Pomfrey assured her that quite a few babies had been born in the infirmary. While this was happening McGonagall was getting everyone else to perform a levitation charm to see had the most steady hand making it more comfortable for Fleur when they moved her. Which was unsurprisingly Draco and Hermione.

The pair levitated her to the hospital wing, both still in their wedding outfits. They walked slowly, stopping every hundred feet to make sure Fleur was ok.

Mrs. Weasley who was by far the most experienced in this area, assured Fleur that she had three medically educated women with her and that they were going to get a specialized healer from St. Mungo's to floo over.

As soon as they reached the hospital wing everyone except Bill, Mrs. Weasley, Ginny, Katie and Audrey were made to leave. Draco and Hermione went back to their living quarters both exhausted from the long day. They changed out of their extravagant outfits.

Before Hermione could put on her pajamas Draco had her pinned against the wall. Kissing her from her lips to her collar bone, nibbling on her ear. All of these things filled Hermione with lust. She pushed him onto the bed, she sat on top of him straddling him. Kissing him hungrily. Begging for more with each small kiss. Things escalated. They didn't just have sex, they made love. Which they continued doing until mid-morning when they fell asleep.

At about one o' clock Draco awoke with his arms slinked around Hermione's bare body. There she was, his wife, Hermione Malfoy. He pushed her long, dark, waved hair away from her face. She was still glowing, that radiant shine. He moved to go into the bathroom downstairs. Hermione woke up noticing the absence of her husband. She smiled. Her husband. She woke up and went down to the bathroom to shower. Draco was in there, she decided to join him.

After their shower they prepared to go visit Fleur and see if she was still in labour before they reached the portrait door, Ginny rushed in huffing and puffing from lack of breath.

"Fleur had a healthy baby girl an hour and a half ago. 8 pounds 4 onces." She huffed out collapsing on the couch.

"Aww!" Hermione squealed.

"How's Bill holding up?" Draco chuckled.

Ginny laughed. "Fleur broke his hand, but he's alright Madam Pomfrey gave him a Skelegrow potion. Fleurs resting now but you can probably go visit her this evening."

"Did Fleur say how bad it was?" Hermione asked seriously.

"And I quote. 'Zee pain vas 'orendous but 'aving my leetle girl vas vorths everee second of eet!" Ginny said using her fingers as quotation marks.

Hermione giggled and Draco chuckled picking up the daily prophet.

"Guess we'll know soon enough." Ginny said in a sad voice looking down.

Draco tried to pretend he didn't hear that bit. Watching Bill having to see Fleur in so much pain last night made him wonder about how he would react, when it came to it.

Hermione looked down and turned around. Placing a hand on her now flat stomach. She still hadn't told him. She was pregnant and she knew it,but she couldn't tell Draco that yet. She'd found out a week prior. She should have known weeks ago, the symptoms were all there. Morning sickness. Forgetfulness. Mood swings. Weird cravings. Swollen feet. She put all of it down to stress, which she had been, but she still should have known.

At six o'clock Hermione and Draco set off for the hospital wing. When they walked in they saw Mr. And Mrs. Weasley. Monsieur and Madam Delacour. Gabrielle. Charlie had come visiting from Romania.

Draco and Hermione came closer. Fleur spotted them and waved for them to come forward. Everyone greeted them with hugs and smiles, hellos and bonjours. Fleur pulled Hermione over to her and Bill and Charlie pulled Draco inbetween them. In Fleurs hands was a beautiful baby girl.

"Oh My Merlin! Congratulations! Bill, Fleur, she's beautiful!" Hermione hugged Fleur.

"Like her mother." Bill said.

Fleur who usually wouldn't have reacted, blushed at this. "She ees soo much more beautiful zann I." She said smiling at her daughter adoringly.

Draco smiled at the small child. "Any name?"

"Victoire. Victoire Audrey-Kate Weasley."  Fleur said.

Bill explained. "Victoire means victory in french, and today is the anniversary of the battle, and Audrey-Kate is after Audrey and Katie because they were bloody brilliant last night."

"They were indeed, there was point last night when Fleur nearly collapsed, it was them who kept her conscious." Mrs. Weasley said relieved.

"Proud grandparents?" Draco said directly to the Weasleys and Delacours with a grin.

"Like you vouldn't eemagine." Said Mrs. Delacour.

"May she be the first of many grandchildren!" Mr. Weasley cheered.

Everyone laughed.

Hermione turned to Gabrielle who was sitting next to her. "How about you missy? Are you excited about being an aunty?"

Gabrielle smiled from ear to ear. She was stunning like Fleur, maybe even more. She was only in her fourth year but she was still prettier than every girl at hogwarts due to her veela ancestory.  As Hermione looked closer she noticed certain resemblances between the Delacours and Draco. Platinum blond hair, blue eyes. High cheekbones, angular faces. 

Hermione, Fleur and Gabrielle started talking rapidly in french. This shocked Draco as he didn't know his wife could speak french. He was able to understand them as he was made to learn french, latin, portuguese, spanish and russian as a child, as a part of his pureblood image.

Eventually Hermione and Draco decided to leave, hand in hand. They walked back to their quarters.

"I really want one now." Draco said remembering as he held the baby girl in his arms.

Hermione sighed, remembering how good he was with Victoire. When he was asked if wanted to hold her, he was very eager. A lot of men would have rather run a mile than hold a baby, but Draco, although he had no experience, held the baby the right way without being told. He smiled and tucked the blanket in when it started to fall off.

Mrs. Weasley had also watched him. Extremely impressed with the young man. She had pulled Hermione over when they were leaving and told Hermione that Draco was going to be an excellent father. Hermione had a feeling that Mrs. Weasley knew about her hidden pregnancy by the way she was looking at her.

Little did Hermione know that Mrs. Weasley had also pulled Draco aside and had told him as well he was a natural father. This had shocked Draco, especially after the way his father had treated him. Draco had been raised to detest the Weasley's but he had found a soft spot for them. Like the way he had a soft spot for the Zabini's.

Hermione decided that that moment was as good a time as ever.

"I'm actually really relieved you want one." She started.

Draco looked sideways at her.

"Because I'm pregnant!" She breathed out quickly and started to run away.
