POV: Hermione. Play the song!! 😍😎🌈✨

The time had finally arrived for Layla and Scorpius to retrieve their much needed belongings and supplies for Hogwarts. And where else, do us witches and wizards go to acquire our cherish sources of spellbinding goods?

Diagon Alley.

Draco and I, and of course, along with our children, magically arrived by The Floo Network, once again, arriving early in the morning and spending our entire day in one of our favorite past times...

Layla had been driving me mad for weeks, prior to our trip, desperately begging me for a Cat at the Magical Menagerie, when we embarked on our trip today... She continued her efforts, while her and Scorpius were both being fitted for their robes at Madame Malkin's. I instantly felt reminiscently melancholy, seeing them and remembering as if it were only yesterday, that I was here being fitted for my robes with my own mum and dad...

"Mummy, I want a cat exactly like Crookshanks, please! I promise, I'll take good care of him or her!" Layla petitioning in pleading with me, continuously. We missed our beloved Crookshanks dearly, who sadly passed away last year. Our hearts were still broken about loosing him.

I agreed that we would go look at the bewitchingly
hectic and crowded pet shop... but I didn't make any promises to her, that we would be getting anything. I couldn't afford a pet right now, and if Draco was still present at this conversation he'd already be gone and back with a brand new cat for her. He spoiled us all extravagantly rotten.

Scorpius finished being fitted for his robes a bit quicker than Layla, so Draco decided to check off a few more items on the the children's lists, while Layla, Hugo, and I finished here.

Draco and Scorpius, decided on getting their cauldrons, scales, and telescopes for both Layla and he, at Potages Cauldron Shop, and Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment, and would be meeting us at Ollivander's to pick Scorpius and Layla's wands. Hugo was jealousy sulking in a corner, as I paid Madame Malkin for Layla's Hogwarts uniforms... We finally left her robe shop, and I reminded Hugo again, on our outside to the busy wizarding street, his day was coming soon.

We made our way to Mr. Ollivander's, becoming verklempt as Fran would say... with each step, seeing the sign in the distance coming closer and closer to me. And within that moment of recollection, we were there, entering through the door, with the entrancingly fantastic bell chiming upon the guests of arrival for over thousands of years... and seeing my delicious husband and my adorable stepson waiting for us patiently with smiles.

"Long time, no see..." Draco ardently drawled in my ear, holding me against his tall hard physique, and quickly whispering, "Remember you love me? And promise not to kill me..." He conjured with his maleficent smirk.

And with the wave of Draco's wand, he sorcerously removed, with a silent charm in his wizard talents, in ordering a satin Slytherin green blanket to whisk itself into the air, revealing a Persian Black Cat with largely gorgeous orange eyes, inside of a crate nestled by Draco's feet.

Layla squealed with utter jubilance, running over to the cage to let her new pet out, that Draco had obviously just bought her.

"Is she mine?! Is he mine?!" Layla questioned her stepfather, jumping up and down holding the cat.

"Her, name is Absinthe. She's a feisty little thing, I'll tell ya... But I was assured, she would love you." Draco thoughtfully expressed to Layla, with Absinthe and Layla bonding straight away, before our very eyes. Layla hugged Draco as he kissed the top of her golden brown hair, "Thank you, Daddy." Layla cried, and I couldn't be upset with my endlessly thoughtful and loving husband, seeing how he made us all so unconditionally happy. He loved us. And loved making us everlastingly mirthful...

Absinthe🖤☺️😻

Scorpius was bursting to display what else Draco bought them. Apparently, stopping by Eeylops Owl Emporium, and buying Hugo and Scorpius, twin brotherly Horned Owls, who were black as midnight with enormously bright fluorescent green eyes, named Frick and Frack... too perfect for words.

"You're truly out of control, you know that don't you, Malfoy?" I playfully teased Draco, with him holding me securely in his captivating arms, that I never wanted to leave. He wickedly smirked, leaning down into my kisses.

"Good Afternoon," spoke the soft voice of Mr. Ollivander's daughter Olive, who now runs the historical wand-making family business.

Olive's demeanor and uncanny resemblance to Mr. Ollivander, was astonishing. Especially, with her father's mystical silvery glistening eyes, shining among us, alongside her long slicked back black hair, that was partially raised in a high bump in the middle of the top of her head, looking like a famous witching rockstar. I loved it...

We greeted her and she was shocked to see that Draco and I were married and were here together. She smiled replying, "Love happens in the most curious of ways. It's simply wonderful isn't it?"

Draco and I, gazed into each other eyes and Draco foretold her, "Yes, it certainly crept its way up to us rather, suddenly." He sublimely grinned, following with kissing me in our little stolen moments of happiness.

"Now! To the task at hand! Ladies first, I say!" Olive brightly spoke, waving her magical tape measure to fit Layla with the proper wand. She loved every second, reminding me so much of myself. Layla held a few wands and suddenly was bestowed with her gift. The wand sparked, releasing red and gold similar to fireworks, dazzling before us.

"Alder wood. Unicorn hair. Nine and three-quarters in length, with a slightly springing flexibility. Perfection of matches, if I do say so myself." Olive excitedly declared, with Layla smiling with pride in finding her wand.

Next, was Scorpius' turn.

The tape measure waved and straightened all around Scorpius' body. He seemed to be a bit nervous, the poor darling.

He tried a few more wands than Layla, and in this magic of Wizarding moments, Scorpius too, was founded by the wand that was called for him to forever have.

"Hawthorn. Dragon heartstring, eleven inches, with reasonable springing. Perfection of matches, once again." Olive smiled and nodded at Scorpius, who was glowing with glee.

We thanked Olive Ollivander for her guidance in wand knowledge, and Draco paid for our children's wands, completely ignoring me with a wink, when I said I would pay for Layla's... And handed Olive fourteen perfectly polished gold Galleons.

Our family of five, made our way to Flourish and Blotts to finish off the kids collection of books for Hogwarts. Layla and Scorpius were in the midst of gathering their copies of Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them, By: Newt Scamander, when we ran into...

Harry, Ginny, James, and Albus Potter.

My other family, by marriage of my ex-husband...

We hugged and introduced Scorpius to The Potter's... trying to not make things uncomfortable for the children, but nevertheless, were very kind and excited to see us. Ginny and Harry knew the pain I had endured from Ronald, and what hell he had put us through.

"I hear congratulations, are in order." Harry spoke with a surprising tone, mixed with a hint of rejoice, to Draco and I, and I smiled like a teenager blushing, and furthermore in feeling Draco kissing me before them, for the first time ever in our long history, in front of my other family...

"Merlin's Beard! I! I! Hermione!" Ginny gasped through laughs hugging me again. "This is rather shocking I have to say..."

"Indeed, we do hope you married our Hermione, for honorable reasons, Malfoy... Seeing as how you're still alive after the Unbreakable Vow you took for Ron, we can personally witness the truth between you two. Unlike the other party, in the matter, coming and crying to us like a baby with colic." Harry announced with chuckles and rolling his eyes at the behavior of his best friend, giving us a clue as to how Ron's truly been handling all of this...

"Of course, I did, Potter. She's my everything and pain-staking as this is to say, as much as it feels, I do owe you're family proof of my dedication and worship to this beautiful woman... I love Hermione. I've always loved her. You needn't worry about her any longer." Draco earnestly devoted his love for me, to my other family.

"She's been through so much, Draco... please, please, do right by her, unlike my brother did. She's a wonderful witch and mum. She deserves a happily ever after..." Ginny spoke with tears in her eyes.

"I would never, ever, hurt her. She is my world..." Draco unsurpassably proclaimed stealing my heart forever...

Harry and Draco shook hands, making everyone's hearts stop beating for a moment... then talking cordially about work at The Ministry. Surprising us all in more ways than one.

Our children were to the side, still gossiping about Hogwarts and introduced Scorpius to their cousins, James and Albus. Albus and Scorpius seemed to really hit it off becoming instant friends.

Ginny pulled me like a crazed teenager, around to a far away book shelf to babble privately, wanting me to tell her every moment of Draco and I's love affair. I enthusiastically obliged. Blushing, covering my face, smiling, and swiftly tearful with every word of my memories gushing out of me, about what had rushingly transpired and bounded us two, quickly becoming Mrs. Draco Malfoy, to Ginny.

"Hermione! This is just incredible, honestly! I can see the passions between you two! Even when we were at Hogwarts, I could sense a sexual tension between you two! I'd always catch him staring at you! Oh, darling, I'm just so happy for you! I knew one day you would find love again... true love. I seriously wanted to kill Ron for what he did to you and the kids. I'm still plotting my revenge against him. I'll never forgive him for what he did to you." Gin, hugged me, and suddenly changed course, growing a slithery smirk and raising an eyebrow.

"Sooooo..."

"Is Malfoy as good in bed, as he looks like he would be?! That bad boy swagger has stayed with him hasn't it?!" Ginny teasingly laughed, similar to her giddy sixteen year old self.

"GINEVRA!" I coughed and choked, laughing and flushing in beet red of embarrassment, knowing that Draco was a downright bloody legend in the sack...

"AaaahhhHH!!!" Ginny exhilaratingly screamed in me getting properly laid, "You don't have to say a word 'Mione! I can see the glow and sexual satisfaction, written all over your crimson blushing face and bloody body language. Damn... you think he can give my Harry, a few pointers?" Ginny playfully joked as we both joined in a fit of giggles. "Can you imagine?! Draco Malfoy giving sex tips to Harry Potter?!" I roared, trying to stay conspicuous with a few witches noticing Ginny and I, vigorously in contagious guffles, by the cooking recipe books section...

I sighed deeply from my bellows, coming back to finally being able to speak again, "Seriously, Gin, I've never been happier. In my entire life, I've honestly never been this happy. Draco is my world and my key to loving eternal happiness." I cried, witnessing Ginny streaming tears down her own freckled cheeks.

"I'm so happy for you, darling. You deserve this so much, I can't even describe how happy we are... we ALL are... so don't you listen to that rubbish, my brother might try to feed you." Gin, kindly informed me.

I shook my head, wiping my tears and hugged Ginny again.

"Well, 'Mione, darling... we better get going. Mum's watching Lily for us. Are you coming to visit The Burrow, soon? Mum and Dad, both told me if we saw you today, to please tell you to come over."

"Well, I'll see. I wrote Mum, about Hugo staying with them the week of Halloween, for Draco and I to go on our honeymoon. She of course, said yes." I suddenly realized, I naturally referred to my old mother in law, Molly, as Mum. I instantly began to sob and Ginny grabbed my shoulders, knowing what was I thinking, quivering herself through her lips, "She is always your Mum, Hermione. Don't you ever forget that. She would be offended if you called her Molly!" We both laughed through our tears again agreeing.

Molly and Arthur, had taken me in, so many years ago, I was always another daughter to them. Especially since my parents were no longer with me. My parents died, just before Layla was born, and we never reprieved their memories. My pasts were full of heartache. And my future was full of loving bliss.

We saw our significant others and our children making their way towards us, putting our hen chat to a hold...

We said our goodbyes as Harry held me in a brotherly grip whispering to me, "Are you sure about this?" "Yes, Harry. I love Draco so much, I can hardly breathe. I've never felt this way about any man in my life." Harry kissed me on the cheek and let go of me saying, "I trust you and I can see it in your eyes, and in his." Harry motioned with his head towards Draco. "I'm happy, if you're happy, Hermione." Harry lastly finished. "Unequivocally." I stated with a smile and tears flowing.

Draco came to my side, saying our final goodbyes to my other family. That I was sure we would be seeing again, very soon...

We decided to end the day with knickerbocker glories at Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour. And purposely avoiding drama at Weasley's Wizard Wheezes, knowing Ron would be there, telling the kids we had to get home, and would return another day...

My world had fallen apart just a few months ago. And serendipitous enough, was picked up and taken over by, Draco Malfoy and making me his wife and the happiest witch in our world.

I wanted to thank him for everything that he has done for me and my children, in giving us a family once again. And I was thankful that my ex in laws weren't as upset as Ron made it seem they would be.

Draco and I had brought our families together... and now I longed to have something that was from both of us.

A New Malfoy Baby...
