Ch.15
"Well, I think he's finally asleep." Draco drawled.
"Yes well, I can see why Ginny was telling me it's impossible to get a four year old to go to sleep." Hermione looked as haggard as she felt. "I'm never feeding him any sugar before bed time ever again. His energy alone wore me down and that doesn't even mention the running around trying to catch him."
"That little bugger sure runs fast for having such short legs." Draco said, almost as exhausted as she.
"I really had a good time Draco. Your Mum… I hope that I'm half as strong as her when I'm older." Hermione smiled fondly as she walked him to the door.
Just before leaving though Draco turned back around to face her. He leaned on the doorway rather casually. "Hermione."
She looked up at him, expectantly. "Yes?"
"In one week I have to go to Ireland for a business meeting."
"Okay?" She cocked her head to the side wondering where he was getting at.
"I want you to come with me."
"You want?" She raised her brows.
Draco gave her his infamous smirk. "Yes, I want." He said firmly.
"Not everybody always get what they want, Malfoy." Hermione crossed her arms.
Draco grinned at her. Then leaned down so that his lips were almost caressing her ear.
"But Granger. Malfoy's always get what they want."
!
The rest of the week passed by fast.
Everyone at the office loved Teddy. Teddy loved how everyone adored him. He especially liked when Draco came everyday to take him off his aunt's shoulders for an hour so that they could hang out.
They went to get ice cream or sometimes Draco actually apparated them to Italy and they ate gelato. Once Blaise had even joined them. Often times they went into the Quidditch shop, the one place his Aunt Hermione tried not to go to if she could help it. And just about every other toy store there was. Each time, Draco got something new for Teddy. They always went back to the apartment to hide it amongst his toys so that Hermione didn't know.
Not that she didn't notice but she decided to just humor them and act ignorant.
Then they would join Hermione again in order to go to lunch. Often times Draco let Teddy ride on his shoulders. It was always quite the sight to see the family like trio.
Many would stop and stare at the sight. The media had a frenzy but all three ignored the paparazzi as best they could. Though Teddy liked to stick his tongue out at them.
Witch Weekly's Top Ten Hottest Couples of the Year
This year we've had some of the five hottest couples you can imagine. It seems this year, Cupid's been busy at work. These are our top ten and we will tell you why...
5. Allie McShea and Seamus Finnegan
(Newest captain of the Harpies after Mrs. Potter retirement last year and a war hero) Our only all Scottish Couple. She is a successful Quidditch player who has won the hearts of many avid Quidditch fans. He is a former Gryffindor and ex-classmate of Harry Potter's. He is one of the many that fought in the war and survived. Finnegan is the owner of one of the most popular Sports Store in the Wizarding World and Muggle alike. These two have just recently just got engaged and we are rooting for them all the way.
4. Lucas Duncan and Taylor Ewin
Even though they broke up early this year, they are still considered one of our hottest couples. With her beautiful sultry voice and a face to match whilst Duncan with his charms, these two were the couple to be.
3. Sadie Rayne and Ron Weasley
Although how this couple came to be is still not quite supported, no one can say that they aren't a hot couple. Sadie is one of the most vied for models in both Wizarding and the muggle world because of her gorgeous looks. She was voted as last year's Witch of the Year. Ron Weasley is the star keeper on the Cannons. One of the best keepers in the league and it was only after him has the Cannons have finally been in the running for the Cup. Dashing in his own way these two are a force to be reckon with.
2. Harry and Ginny Potter
How can you not expect these two to be on here? These two have been married just a little over two years and still going strong, so sorry girls but the Savior's off the market and may not ever get back on at this point.
The last but definitely not least…
Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger
(Former Death Eater and the War Herione)
You guessed it folks, our hottest couple of the year. Even though their relation has yet to even hit a month, they are the couple to envy. Brought together by uncertain circumstances, these two have managed to shine. Draco Malfoy was voted number two on the most eligible Bachelor. With his dashing looks and charms alone could sway any woman but add in a Gringgotts account that could buy a country or two, not to mention the fact that he is the head of his company. Draco Malfoy is a dream. Hermione Granger on the other hand is everybody's beloved war heroine. One of the brightest Withes of her year. Beautiful and sophisticated. She has now become quite the fashion icon. The two together are a grand sight. Not only are they beautiful as any couple can be. You can almost see the fire and chemistry blazing off of them. These two are the ultimate couple.
Ron clutched the stupid article to a near death grip. Splat on the front of the paper was Hermione clad in a green summer dress almost glowing. It was no wonder she had become a trend setter. But then the stupid ferret was there to ruin the whole thing. And why the hell was Teddy sitting on the ferret's shoulders?
"Weasley, get your butt out onto the field." His coach yelled shaking him out of his reverie. "We're running a practice here or did you forget?"
Meanwhile on the otherside of town, Sadie Rayne was furiously ripping the magazine in pieces. They were number three? When that stupid bint and Draco were number one! That wasn't supposed to happen. Draco wasn't supposed to find another girl, he was supposed to fight for her. She had wanted him and Ron to fight for her. Oh how the press would have loved it if two of the Wizarding world's two most well known wizards had been fighting for her. She would've been envied by everyone. She would be the fashion trend setter not that thing!
She felt like pulling at her hair but it was only a few days ago had it started to grow back, and healthier than ever. Instead she let out a piercing scream that made all that around her cringe.
!
"Your eyes, tell me how you want me. I can feel it in your heart beat. I know you like what you see." Hermione laughed as she sang.
Teddy giggled as he watched his aunt cook breakfast. She was currently using the whisk as a microphone as she sang with the song on the radio.
"Then, Jump! For my love. Jump in!" She dropped the whisk and put the eggs on the skillet. She looked over her shoulder and smiled at Teddy then made a face that was supposed to be sultry. But caused the both of them to laugh.
Teddy clapped and giggled. His aunt was the best. He couldn't see why his uncle would leave his aunt for the balding lady. Even though she was pretty when she had hair. But his aunt was so… she was beautiful and she was fun. The other lady spent too much time looking in the mirror and talking about everything but him.
Hermione shook her hair as she sang the chorus. "Then, Jump! For my love. Jump in! And feel my touch. Jump, if you want to taste my kisses in the night then jump for my love. I know my heart can make you happy."
"Jump in!" Teddy joined in too.
Hermione laughed as she tipped the skillet and flipped the omelet. "You told me, I'm the only woman for you." Hermione put the skillet down and sang the lyrics to Teddy while tickling him, causing the boy to giggle endlessly before quickly going back to her cooking. Both were so enraptured neither noticed that a certain blonde had flooed into the apartment.
"Jump, if you want to taste my kisses in the night then. Jump! For my love!" Hermione finished with a laugh.
"Granger?" Malfoy said barely believing his eyes. Hermione Granger was dancing and singing as she swayed her hips while making breakfast. But he didn't have much time to think about it. An omelet came flying at him at top speed and before he knew it, the omelet landed on his face. Then slowly, very slowly, slid down said face.
Hermione stared in shock at the omelet she had previously been cooking was now all over Draco Malfoy's hair and face. In her shock at hearing his voice she hadn't been too careful in flipping the omelet that she had managed to fling it behind her.
Shocked caramel and silver orbs stared at each other. They only broke contact when they heard hysterical laughter come from the little boy still sitting on the stool by the counter.
"What in the world?" Harry Potter asked as he apparated out of nowhere into his best friend's apartment.
"Oh my god Draco I'm so."
"Don't." Draco said as he walked to the sink
"I have to say though Malfoy that look definitely works for you." Harry said.
"Ha ha Potter." Draco said as he turned on the faucet. "Shut it."
Meanwhile the little one was still laughing hysterically.
"Oh you think this is funny Teddy." Draco said looking at the four year old.
All three adults looked at the boy. Poor thing looked like as if he was about to fall out of his seat from laughing so hard.
"Teddy." Draco warned as he glared at him. It didn't even faze the precocious child, if anything it caused the boy to laugh even harder, if that was even possible.
Hermione was biting her lip so that she wouldn't start laughing too but unfortunately a child's laughter was so infectious she couldn't help it. Then Harry joined in too, frankly enjoying the sight of Draco Malfoy covered in egg yoke.
"This is not even funny."
"It is!" Teddy said cheekily back.
Draco tried to scowl at the boy but found that he couldn't. Before he could stop himself a smile was tugging on his lips.
Hermione said goodbye to Harry and Teddy reassuring Harry that Malfoy was harmless.
"But Mione, he's in your shower now."
"Yes, in the guest room shower the same one you use from time to time." Hermione rolled her eyes.
"But, but." Harry all but whined.
"Harry." Hermione warned. "He is my boyfriend."
"I know but ugh, he's still Malfoy." Harry made a face.
Hermione laughed. "Harry, Draco's a good person."
"I still don't like the fact he's using your shower."
"It's not his first time using my shower Harry."
Harry gave her a weird look then something dawned on him. He gave a grimace. "I did not need to know that or see that. Whatever you and Malfoy do… please don't tell me."
"Harry James Potter get your head out of the gutter!" Hermione cried her jaw agape. "Frankly it was because this little guy here likes to make messes and drop drinks." She pointed at Teddy as she grinned at him. Teddy gave a big grin.
"Oh." Harry gave a sigh of relief.
Hermione shook her head at him. Then turned to her favorite nephew in the world. "I'm sorry about your breakfast squirt. I hope you had a good time though."
Teddy grinned as he nodded his head. "I had a lot of fun this week Aunty Mione. I love you."
"And I love you." Hermione gave him a kiss on his adorable nose. "You be good for your mum and dad okay."
He just gave a cheeky grin not saying anything.
The two adults shared a look.
"Thank you so much Hermione. For everything." Harry said kissing her cheek.
"You're welcome and it was my pleasure Harry. How was your honeymoon anyway?"
"Perfect, everything was perfect. I'll leave the details to Ginny she'll want to tell you herself." Harry grinned. "You take care and call me if you need anything. I mean it, Mione."
"I will." Hermione smiled at him.
"I love you Hermione."
"I love you too Harry." Then with a pop the two of them disappeared.
It was barely two minutes later when Hermione was cleaning the skillet did a knock on her door sound. Hermione turned off the faucet and dried her hands quickly. "Coming!"
Hermione opened the door and to her shock, standing in the hallway was none other than Ron Weasley.
Hermione took a step back as she gasped in shock.
Ron couldn't help but stare at the woman in front of him. He never noticed before, her hair was a rich brown, like the color of chocolate. She was glowing and beautiful even sexy in a pair of muggle shorts and a shirt that emphasized her curves.
"Hermione." He said almost whistfully.
"Hermione where'd you put my spare clothing… why hello there Weasel."
Ron looked up sharply. To his shock and horror, standing in the middle of his living room was Draco Malfoy clad in only a towel that was wrapped around his waist.
