11 years have passed since that day
Winter was coming to an end as the trees surrounding the Malfoy house began to sprout little green buds that would soon turn into leaves. And a young Malfoy boy who liked to spend his time outside of his house during the winter often complained to his parents about it, wondering why they couldn’t just use magic to put a little more snow on the ground. To which his parents would reply “That is simply a waste of magic”. Well, Hermione would. Draco would back her up when she was around, but could never resist the temptation of giving his son a little more winter when he was alone and he asked.
Other than a tad bit of complaining every now and again, Salvator Claritas Malfoy had grown into a dapper young man, whose name was latin for Saviour of Light. He had his father’s sense of mischief but otherwise resembled his mother. He had his mother’s deep brown eyes and floppy curls that he would sometimes slick back when they got in his eyes. He had Draco’s smile though, and all the little smirks that went with it. He had just had his birthday which meant in less than 6 months he would be on a train to hogwarts.
Hermione and Draco would get into playful arguments about which house he’d be placed in, Hermione thinking Gryffindor would suit him and Draco of course hinting in the direction of Slytherin. It was completely plausible that he could be put into either, he did show traits of both. Mischief and pride when he didn’t get his way, but great courage and selflessness when he played with his little brother.
5 years after Salvator was born, Hermione and Draco had come across the surprise that they were expecting again. Hermione had fumed at Draco telling him that he must’ve forgotten the contraception charm. They had thought that Salvator was enough, especially given that he was a complete handful, hyper as a child and almost never slept. That didn’t stop them from experiencing the utmost excitement and love for the second young Malfoy boy they’d brought into the world though.
Viribus Ex Animo Malfoy was born exactly a month and five years after his elder brother. His name translates to Strength of the Soul, but they call him Viri and his brother: Sal. While Sal looked minimally like his father, Viri was just about a carbon copy of Draco. He had his white blonde hair, and deep grey eyes. They boys may look like polar opposites but in fact spent quite a lot of time with one another. They had a pretty nice childhood too, which helped with their outlook on life and each other as well, given the fact that Malfoy money could buy any toy either of the boys desired. But more than that, their parents made sure they always knew how much they were loved and wanted.
It had been difficult for Draco and Hermione to sleep or even relax for a long time after Sal was born, especially with what had gone down during his birth, but they had promised themselves that they would give him and eventually his brother the lives they’d never had. They had moved out of Draco’s cottage and into a small Muggle town near london for the first few years of Sal’s life, but after they had gotten past most of the nightmares and constant paranoia of someone taking away their baby, they felt comfortable enough to rejoin the wizarding world, getting a house just a little bit west of Diagon Alley. They figured they would need to be around there soon enough anyways, one day, Sal was going to go to Hogwarts.
******
Draco had promised Sal that exactly a week before Hogwarts School started that they would go to Diagon Alley and get him the supplies he needed to get started, only the best of course. And Sal counted down the days until the morning came when Howarts was exactly one week away.
5:00 AM struck the clock and Salvator was up and about. He couldn’t sleep in on such an important day after all. He ran from his bedroom and burst into his parents’
“MOM DAD ITS TIME FOR DIAGON ALLEY! TIME TO LEARN ABOUT MAGIC”
The grown wizards grumbled from under their comforter on their bed
“Sal” Hermione started, rubbed her eyes “Go back to sleep, daddy and I are tired”
Draco groaned and stretched, pulling the covers from himself and Hermione. He was tired too, but he remembered as a young man how excited he was for his first time shopping for Hogwarts. He forced a playful grin and jostled his sleepy wife
“Come on, ‘Mione, we did say we’d take him shopping”
Hermione looked up at her husband and muttered “You said you’d take him shopping. Besides if you don’t remember we had a late night last night” she smirked up at Draco
“Please Hermione” Draco said followed by a higher pitched “Please Mommy”
“Shopping just won’t be the same without you!” Draco said kissing his wife “Besides I think Viri would want to go with us”
Apon hearing his name Viri appeared right in the middle of the bed next to his parents. Neither Hermione nor Draco knew how Viri knew how to teleport but they usually thought of it as a blessing. Unless of course it was 5 AM. “Viribus Ex Animo Malfoy!” Hermione started “What have I told you about this? You scared me!”
“Well that means you’re awake doesn’t it?” The voice of Sal sounded from the foot of the bed
Hermione sighed through her nose “Alright, alrighty boys I’m up”
All three boys cheered in unison
*****
After a breakfast of Pancakes and eggs, followed by the boys getting dressed, which could sometimes be a task because both of them were perfectly happy going out in their pajamas, and Viri would literally disappear when Hermione tried to brush his hair, they quartet were ready to go to Diagon Alley.
“Where would you like to go first, Sal?” Hermione asked as they entered the wizards shopping center
“I dunno Mom” he said.
Hermione opened her mouth to say something but Draco beat her to it, she had been cross ever since Sal had stopped using the word Mommy and started using Mom and Draco didn’t want anything to put a damper on their son’s good mood.
“May I suggest Olivander’s?” Draco said clearing his throat
Hermione’s facial expression relaxed a little
“Yes that’s a good idea, huh, Sal?”
Yeah, okay Mommy”
Hermione smiled, a little warmth coming to her cheeks. As mischievous as he was, Sal still knew how to make her feel good.
Viri sat on Draco’s shoulders throughout the wand shopping experience, and after a couple more shops after that, the parents could tell her was getting cranky. It was obvious he was getting hungry
“Come on Sal, we have gotten you everything you need, how about we get some lunch”
Sal’s stubbornness came out when he spoke this time “But you said we could go to Honeydukes!”
“Afterwards… come on”
“YOU SAID HONEYDUKES!” The eleven year old began to protest. Draco could tell he was hungry like his brother, and getting aggravated but wouldn’t let up until they went to honeydukes.
This caused a conflict of interest with his brother though as the six year old began to wail in order to get his way as well.
Draco was not in the mood to cause a scene so he told Hermione to go and get Viri some lunch, and he would take Sal to honeydukes.
Hermione exhaustively agreed. Draco could tell she was getting worn out too. “You know what, Mione, how about you and Viri go home. Get some lunch, take a nap. Sal and I will be right behind you”
Hermione nodded and began to apparate herself and the small child home, but not before saying “Don’t fill him up too much with Sugar. He will already have trouble sleeping for next week with excitement already”
Draco nodded but nudged his son playfully. Draco knew he would get Sal anything he asked for.
*****
Draco took his son to the candy shop, and didn’t expect the overwhelming sense of Nostalgia he got when they arrived. He hadn’t been there since he had followed Hermione. Who would’ve known what a bit of Light Stalking could have turned into.
Salvator was a few items short of having his father buy out the entire store when they finished shopping and outside Draco said he could pick a treat, but then they would save the rest for later. He didn’t want Hermione too mad at him.
The 11 year old stroked his chin thoughtfully then his eyes perked up “Chocolate frog!”
Draco smiled and pulled his son into a hug. Those were what Hermione had bought the day his life changed forever. And it seemed fitting that her son, related to him or not, liked them too.
Sal wiggled away from his father “Noooowwwwww” he whined and Draco handed one over, watching as the young man hastily popped it into his mouth.
******
The week seemed to fly by as well as the departure to Hogwarts itself.
“Okay honey, are you sure you have everything you need?” Hermione asked placing her hands on her son’s shoulders as the tooting of a train horn blasted beside them
“Yes mom” Salvator said rolling his eyes “We have been over this like one billion times!”
Hermione playfully swatted her son then pulled him into a hug “You better write us every night”
Draco placed his hand on his son’s forehead stroking back his hair “Tell your headmaster if you get too homesick okay?”
“By Sal!” Viri waved “Wait… I have something for you” then Viri pulled a half sucked on Lollipop out of his mouth and handed it to his brother who recoiled in disgust
Hermione scowled at him and Sal reluctantly took the pop.
“Stick it to the annoying kids” Draco whispered to his son
“What did you just say” Hermione said to her husband
“Nothing darling”
“Do it” He mouthed to Sal.
Sal was pulled into one more group hug then boarded the train
“See you at christmas honey!” Hermione yelled as the train took off
“I still can’t believe our little boy is going to Hogwarts” Hermione turned to Draco
“Me either”
“You know he’s going to be a Gryffindor right?”
Draco smirked at his wife “In your dreams”
*****
“Hah!” Draco yelled when he got the news “He’s a Slytherin!”
Hermione crossed her arms and rolled her eyes jokingly
“Well you know Viri’s going to be a Gryffindor though right?”
“Oh sure. You know Malfoy men are all Slytherin at heart!”
“Well then I hope our 3rd child is a girl!”
“Our 3rd child?”
“Draco… I’m pregnant”
Hermione giggled and Draco pulled her into a long hug. They were peaceful in each other’s arms until Draco broke the silence
“I bet it’s going to be embarrassing for you when all 3 of our kids are Slytherins!”
“Well then we’ll keep trying til we get a Gryffindor!” Hermione laughed
“Why don’t we start now”
“You do know I’m pregnant right, maybe you’re hard of hearing”
“Hey we gotta practice you know? Practice makes perfect, and I only make perfect children”
Hermione felt herself being pulled into Draco’s arms and onto his lips. She couldn’t imagine her life any other way with anybody else.
The End.
