Taking Chances
Draco/Hermione
Chapter Four – This Time
After meeting with Hermione, Draco returned home and wrote a letter to his parents. The letter took him nearly three hours to write. How would be break the news to his parents that they would be Grandparents very soon? How would they re-act? He bet his mother would secretly be happy about it. She loved children and he knew that she wants more children after him.
His father on the other hand would be furious. Lucius Malfoy wanted to protect their pure bloodline and knowing that Hermione was the mother would mean the baby would be a half-blood which would ruin Lucius' dream. When Lucius had received the threat and pictures of Draco and Hermione together he wasn't pleased. He knew Hermione Granger was a strong witch and very intelligent however he wanted his son to keep his bloodline pure; from an early age he had drilled this into Draco.
Draco sent Artemis off with the letter; his owl would have to fly for hours until he got to Milan so for the next few hours Draco simply tried to keep himself busy. By ten o'clock in the evening, Draco had still not received a letter back from his parents so he took his self off to bed.
At three am in the morning Draco was disturbed from his peaceful sleep by his father.
'Draco Malfoy!' Lucius shouted as he ripped Draco's quilt away from his body. 'My office now!'
As soon as the quilt has been pulled off him Draco sat straight up. As his father stamped out of his room, Draco pulled on jogging bottoms and a hoodie and walked down the hallways to his father's office.
As Draco walked into his Father's office he saw his mother sat in the arm chair where his father normally sat. He sat down on the sofa and looked up at his mother.
'Is it true?' Narcissa said as she looked at her twenty-three year old son.
'Yes.' Draco replied. 'I met with Hermione early this morning, well yesterday morning. She's four months pregnant and before you ask father it's mine.' He said as he looked at his father.
'Oh Draco.' Narcissa said as she moved from the seat to sit beside her son. She took hold of his hands and looked into his grey eyes which belonged to his father. 'A baby is so much work.'
'I know that mother.' Draco said as he looked down at his petite mother. 'I have promised Hermione I will be there for her and the baby.'
'Of course you will.' Narcissa said. 'You have to bring up your son.'
'Or daughter.' He replied as he smiled at Narcissa knowing she'd love a Granddaughter. 'Hermione and I have spoken about being a family and raising our child together; I don't want my son or daughter being brought up by some other man.'
'Rightly so.' Lucius said as he started to relax. 'As wonderful as this all sounds Draco, we have the slight problem of the threat I received.'
'I told Hermione.' Draco said.
'You shouldn't have dear, you'll worry her and that's not good for the baby.' Narcissa said.
'She needs to know Narcissa. She is in danger and she is carrying the next Malfoy Heir and should be watchful of what could happen.' Lucius said.
'You don't think they would actually harm Miss Granger and the child do you Lucius?' Narcissa asked.
'We don't know who these people are.' Lucius replied. 'We need to see Ms Granger.'
'I doubt she'll agree to that.' Draco said.
'We're practically family now Draco. She's carrying our Grandchild, I'd like to get to know her and of course you'll be getting married before the baby arrives.' Narcissa said.
'I very much doubt that Mother.' Draco replied. 'We agreed to be a family and try and make things work but I can't see us getting married in five short months.'
'But the baby won't be born a Malfoy.' Narcissa said shocked.
'It will be a Malfoy whatever dear.' Lucius said. 'You need to speak with Ms Granger and get her to come here to meet us. I am going to contact Severus and see if he knows who the threats might be from.'
'When are you seeing Ms Granger again?' Narcissa asked.
'I told her to only correspond through letters until I had spoken to you.' He said motioning towards Lucius.
'A sensible thing to do Draco.' Lucius said. 'Cissy why don't you go get ready for bed, I need to speak with Draco privately.'
'Of course.' She said as she kissed her son's head and then stood up and walked out of her husband's office and walked to her bedroom.
Lucius stayed silent for a few minutes which built up atmosphere and started to make Draco nervous.
'Have you ever heard of the contraception charm Draco?' Lucius said hauntingly.
'Yes of course I do Father.' Draco said. 'I always used it but mistakes happen.'
'I know they do but Draco I don't think you realise how serious a baby is.' Lucius said as he stood up.
'I do Father. I know a baby is a lot of work, I know there will be times where Hermione and I will probably hate each other's guts because of lack of sleep but I have a baby on the way and I have to deal with it like a man.' Draco said.
'Well, I'm glad you're taking it seriously.' Lucius said as he sat in his arm chair. 'Fatherhood is hard Draco, you will have a baby who is dependent on you and you need to step up and be there.'
'I know Father and I have promised to be there.' Draco said. 'I know Hermione will be an amazing mother.'
'I'm sure she will be.' Lucius said.
'I'll write to Hermione in the morning and see if she will come here on Sunday.' Draco said.
'That would be good.' Lucius said as he stood up. 'Now I would like some sleep and I think you would too.'
'I'm sorry you had to come back from Milan.' Draco said to his father.
'I think you might have to apologise to your mother in the morning, she is missing out valuable shopping time.' Lucius said as he walked out of his office.
The next morning, Hermione woke and rushed to the bathroom; her morning sickness was back. Great. Hermione finished up in the bathroom, brushed her teeth and then went downstairs.
'Morning.' Molly said as she smiled at Hermione. 'A letter came for you it's on the table.'
'Thank you.' Hermione said as she sat down at the table and opened the letter.
Hermione,
My parents have arrived back from Milan and know everything. They took is really well, much better than I thought. Both my Mother and my Father would like to meet you on Sunday. I know you probably don't want to come to the Manor but we really need to talk, all four of us.
Please Hermione, we really do. Father wants to discuss the threats and Mother would love to meet you. She seems really excited about having a Grandchild and I'm sure I saw father smile when I mentioned a son or daughter in five short months.
I hope to hear from you very soon.
Draco.
'Everything alright dear?' Molly asked.
'Draco wants me to go to the Manor tomorrow and meet his parents.' Hermione said. 'It looks like I'll be going.'
