A/N: So I hope you love me. So many of you love this story and were so excited about Hermione and Ariana meeting...so here is a short little chapter, of the scene of them meeting. I hope you love it :)
Chapter 3
Draco led Hermione down the hallway by the hand, sensing her nervousness, and rubbed his thumb across her knuckles. Stopping in the hallway, he looked over at her, to see her biting down on her lower lip, "You okay?"
"Yes!" She squeaked, before swallowing and turning to look at him. "I just really want her to like me." She smiled nervously.
"While there are no guarantees, Ariana loves everything, except broccoli, I'm told. Frequently." He chuckled. "We can wait, but I'm anxious for you to meet her, for you both to get to know each other."
Hermione paused, gathering her nerves, he left her so flustered. He made her feel like jello, with no backbone and no Gryffindor courage, but he also made her feel more alive than ever before. "No, I want to meet her, she's important to you."
Leaning forward and whispering in her ear, "You're important to me too." He pulled back, kissing her softly, but continued down the hallway and toward the kitchen.
When they walked in, Narcissa was at the island and Ariana was sitting on one of the barstools, while the new kitten tested its feet on the floor. Ariana looked up when Draco walked into the room, and sat up straighter when Hermione made her way into the room.
"Ariana, I would like to introduce you to Miss Hermione Granger." Draco said placing his hand on the small of Hermione's back.
Ariana scrambled off her chair, and walked over to Draco, who quickly scooped her up. "Hello Miss Hermione." She held out her hand politely, to which Hermione shook gently.
"Hello Ariana." Hermione smiled at her, marveling at how polite she was, a true Malfoy already. Hermione was mesmerized by her bright blue eyes, that looked illuminated from behind.
"Hello Miss Granger." Narcissa stated, rubbing her hands on an apron and walking forward. Hermione looked away from Ariana.
"Mrs. Malfoy, I'm so sorry about the -."
"None of that, please. I would like to start fresh and forget it ever happened, we both were caught quite off guard." Narcissa added, smiling.
"Of course. Well, it's a pleasure to see you again." Hermione remarked.
"Mum is lunch ready?" Draco asked, smiling widely at all of the witches in the room.
"Papa!" Ariana put her hands on either side of Draco's head, demanding his full attention. "Nan said you liked turkey best, so I made you two, because Nan says you're always hungry and as the woman of the house, it's my job to make sure you're fed!" Ariana exclaimed.
Everyone laughed as Draco added, "Yes darling, it's your job to make sure I'm fed properly." He smiled, setting her down, and putting his arm back on Hermione waist.
30 minutes later, the group was resting in the great room, having been entertained by Ariana's endless questions about life, the universe, and everything from unicorns to castles, the stars and bugs. Draco had his arm around Hermione's shoulders while Narcissa lectured Ariana on the importance of a strong name for her kitten.
"Nan, what would you think a good name for a kitten is?" Ariana asked.
"Something that means a great deal to you, that will bring you comfort when you need it, and a strong name. She's your first familiar, so you have to pick a good one, and it doesn't have to be today." Narcissa smiled, her eyes alight watching her granddaughter.
When Draco had gone to Narcissa to inform her that he was adopting, he hadn't known what to expect. No Malfoy had ever carried on the line through a child that wasn't his, and a girl had not been born in over 700 years.
To his great surprise, Narcissa was thrilled. Within the month, she and Draco had finalized the plans to turn the Manor into a group home and moved herself closer to Draco's current home. She set her mind to helping the Adoption agency with fundraisers, galas and balls to raise money. It was her most cherished charity right now. She was determined to be the type of grandmother she was never allowed to be as a mother. Doting, comforting and always there, she wouldn't care about appearances or who was watching, she would give her grandchildren everything she had to give them.
Narcissa turned from her granddaughter, who was talking to her kitten, and smiled at the couple before her, "Hermione, Draco tells me you're working in the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures."
"Yes, I am."
"What projects are you working on right now?" Narcissa smiled, enjoying the way Draco turned to watch Hermione talk.
"Currently some centaur issues in the Northern Scotland, and I was just given a proposal for a government funded wolfsbane programme, that I have to sort out the details with." Hermione added.
Narcissa stared openly at Draco, who looked away from Hermione, to watch Ariana. An awkward silence stretching on. Hermione looked between Draco and Narcissa, and looked back at Draco. "What's wrong?"
Draco turned to face her, a rather guilty look on his face. "Your wolfsbane programme, I personally requested you work on it."
"Why would you have any say in the matter?" Her eyebrows raising.
"My company is who will supply the wolfsbane potion, the programme was already in the works months ago, but when we, I mean when you and I, well I knew you would handle it the best and distribute it correctly."
Hermione sat quitely, surprised at his involvement in her work, but thoroughly shocked that it was his company supplying it, she had assumed it was a grant of some kind.
"But isn't the potion incredibly expensive to create, and dangerous?" She inquired.
"We have found a few shortcuts in production that don't decrease the effectiveness, but make it less expensive. It is still rather expensive, but without access to the potion, werewolves across the country can never fully readjust to society." Draco explained.
Hermione was floored, this was far from the Draco she had known in school. This man before her, had a big heart, and willingly shared it with others. She wanted to cry, at the tenderness of it all, but held it together, and smiled at him.
"Ariana, I almost forgot I have a present for you." Hermione exclaims.
The little girl ceased conversation with her kitten immediately and ran over to sit on Draco's lap. Hermione reached for her bag, and carefully extracted the gift bag from inside.
Narcissa watched, as a much bigger bag came out of a small purple bag, "What charm is that?"
Hermione looked up, "Oh, it's an undetectable extension charm. I've been using it for years, I almost forget about it." Turning back to the little girl she handed her the yellow gift bag. As Ariana ripped it open, Hermione continued, "Your papa said how much you love princesses."
Ariana squealed when she saw an assortment of princess items: a Belle doll and two books, Beauty and the Beast and the Little Mermaid to match her Cinderella book. Leaping forward she wrapped her arms around Hermione's neck and squeezed.
"Thank you so much Miss Hermione!"
Hermione hugged her tightly, unaware of the joy Draco was experiencing next to her.
Ariana finally let go and went back to her kitten to show her the doll and opening the books to show her kitten.
"I need to get back to work." Hermione smiled, standing up.
"It was wonderful to see you Hermione, maybe we can get lunch sometime." Narcissa added.
"I'll walk you to the fire." Draco said standing up.
Once they reached the library, Draco quietly shut the door, and pulled Hermione back towards him, and up against the shelves. Leaning forward he kissed her firmly on the lips. His tongue outlining her lips, as his hand went to her chest, and softly rubbed her breast through her clothes, eliciting a moan from Hermione. He took full advantage and deepened the kiss, making Hermione breathless. His legs on either side of hers and his other arm in her hair, pulling her head towards him as his body pushed her back into the shelves.
After a few minutes, Draco pulled away from Hermione. Their cheeks rosy and Hermione's hair messed up.
"Please join us for dinner this evening." He begged.
"Ok." She murmured, unable to say anything else.
Walking forward she was almost to the fire when Draco grabbed her arm and turned her back towards him, "Hermione, you make me very happy."
Hermione beamed, and kissed him softly on the lips before disappearing into the flames.
