Hermione and Draco had received a shock. They were staring at Anna with wide eyes, still processing the information. Anna sat patiently in her chair, waiting for them to catch up.
"What have I done to deserve this?" Draco shouted at last. "This is unfair!" he stood from his chair and paced the floor in frustration.
Draco's outburst pulled Hermione out of her trance. She blinked several times, glanced at Draco and then Anna and back again. Her eyes remained on Draco. What were they going to do? This child. Their child was inside of her. Inside her. Living. Growing.
"I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable by telling you this all at once." said Anna and motioned for Draco to sit down. "You two are going through a rough time right now and I'm going to be here to help you and Narcissa."
"I can't...I can't believe this is all happening so...so fast." said Hermione to herself.
"I don't know if I can do this." said Draco.
Hermione stared at Draco. What did he mean by that? Was he rejecting her? Their child? Did he want this marriage to be over? A loud sob escaped Hermione's throat. Tears fell down her cheeks. Draco and Anna immediately went to her side to comfort her. Hermione disparately wanted Draco to hold her, reassure her that he still loved her as he had claimed days ago, but was too afraid to ask. She feared he would refuse her. But she didn't have to say anything. Draco went to her and pulled her into his arms, kissing her head.
"Both of you are in shock." stated Anna. "We need to sort things out and create a plan. I will stay here to treat Narcissa. Help you through your pregnancy. I am qualified with years worth of experience. I performed the role of midwife for seven of my close friends during their pregnancy. I'm not going to say that everything went smoothly. All pregnancy were different. They'll be many challenges ahead but I will be here to support both of you." she patted Hermione's hand to sooth her. "Draco, how do you feel about Hermione? Do you love her? Do you want this child?"
Draco released Hermione and looked in her eyes. "Of course I love her." he said, not taking his eyes from Hermione. "I love you and I want my son. The circumstance that he was created was not typical, but I love him nonetheless."
The corners of Hermione's lips twitched and curved into a full smile. "I love you too. I told you already, but you fainted."
Draco laughed. It was the only respond he could think of and pulled her back in his arms.
"Communication is essential in a relationship." came Anna's voice. "If you have worries and fears, do not keep them to yourself. It will hurt both of you, cause discord. Face each other. Talk."
"Thank you." said Draco.
Anna smiled. "If you'll excuse me." she left the couple alone and went upstairs to Narcissa's bedroom.
The room was destroyed. The table and bed was flipped, rugs out of place, vases broken into pieces. Narcissa turned around when she heard Anna came in. Narcissa was standing in the center of the room with feathers from the ripped pillow stuck in her messy hair and on her wrinkled nightdress.
"It was like this when I got here!" Narcissa shouted as if she was a child caught during a mischievous act.
With the snap of Anna's fingers the mess disappeared. "Don't be scared."
Narcissa stepped back from Anna and eyed her with suspicion.
Anna stepped forward. "Narcissa don't be frightened of me. I am your caretaker sent by your parents to look after you while they are gone."
By the looks of it. Narcissa had relapsed and reverted back to her teenage years again.
"Where are my sisters?" asked Narcissa. "Why aren't they here too?"
Narcissa's mind hadn't reverted back her teenage years but further than that Anna noted.
"Your parents sent them to stay with your other relatives. Come here." said Anna.
Narcissa was hesitant at first but went to her.
Anna hugged her. "You've been a naughty girl." Narcissa stood there obediently letting her pluck the feathers from her hair.
"I didn't mean too." Narcissa said softly. "I didn't know where I was when I woke up. They-the woman and the man scare me."
Patting Narcissa's back, Anna's gaze turned to the broken mirror piece on the floor. She narrowed her eyes at the reflection of the back of the grotesque creature she was holding. It was hairless with elephant-like skin. "You weren't hurt and that's all that matters." Anna assured her.
Anna roughly pulled Narcissa's long hair back. Narcissa's cries were muffled as Anna closed her palm over her mouth and forced the demon that was possessing her out. Narcissa went limp after the creature exited her body. Anna caught her with one arm, while holding the demon with her other. Narcissa disappeared from Anna's arms and landed on the mattress. Anna released the demon from her hold. When it attempted to run, Anna's blonde hair undid itself from the clips and hairpins, becoming longer. It roped itself around the demon, keeping it in place.
"I think you had enough fun here." said Anna.
The ends of Anna's hair pierced through the demon's skin. The demon's black eyes stared at her in horror as it screamed and struggled while Anna absorbed its very essence through her hair. No one could hear it screaming, Anna had blocked the sound from escaping the room. She watched as the demon's body slowly shrunk, drained of all of its fluids. Her hair transformed from blonde into red through the process. The brighter the red color the more she was taking from him. When there was nothing left of the demon her long red hair picked up the clips and hairpins and tied itself back into a neat French twist. Having finished her light snack she smiled in satisfaction. Her mouth had been watering the second she caught sent of the creature when she entered the manor.
Anna walked to where Narcissa was sleeping soundly on the bed. The witch had been hosting the parasite for quite a while. It was feeding off her life, her sanity. Fortunately for Narcissa, Anna was curious enough about this case to come to Paris to see for herself. Now that Anna had disposed of the demon it made treating Narcissa much easier. Pulling the blanket over Narcissa, Anna thought about the tasty meals she was going to have while on this trip.

"How do you know it's a boy?" Hermione asked Draco after Anna left.
"Because he is." replied Draco with confidence.
Hermione smiled at his statement and did what she wanted to do for days. Kiss him. Draco responded to her kiss with equal passion. When they broke the kiss he asked, "When did you fall in love with me?"
Draco smirked when he saw Hermione turn red. "When?" he pressed.
"Th-that night...when you..." Hermione stuttered, avoiding his gaze.
Draco learned something new by Hermione's partial confession. She stuttered when she was nervous, similar to when she lies. But when she was nervous she stuttered and avoided your eyes. He found it adorable. "All this time I thought you're the type who falls for a man for his brains. Intellect." He sighed deeply. "Who knew that all I had to do was gave you my delicious body."
Hermione playfully slapped his chest. Draco caught her hand and kissed her knuckles.
"It wasn't like that," said Hermione, "it...I'm not...I think I loved you long before that. I fell for you that night I saw you with your mother."
Draco stiffened. All humor gone. "What night?"
Hermione gently caress his face with the palms of her hands. Draco relaxed at her touch, closing his eyes.
"The night I swore to cure Narcissa. To protect you. To take away the pain -" Before she could finish her sentence Draco pulled her into a kiss, pouring his heart, his soul into it.
Hermione responded with eagerness, wanting him close. She wrapped her arms around his neck. When they broke the kiss to allow each other to breath Hermione asked, "When did you fall in love with me?"
"When I first saw you in your sexy healer uniform?"
Hermione knitted her brows together. "There's nothing sexy about my uniform."
"Believe me. The image of you kept me awake countless nights."
"Does that mean you're aroused by matronly women?"
Draco's jaw dropped. He was complimenting her by telling her that he found her sexy. She somehow managed to interpret that he thought she was matronly. Concluded that he was sexually excited by matronly women. Matronly as in middle-aged, plumped build.
"Hermione, you are neither matronly nor are you plump." Draco told her. "You are intelligent, caring, selfless, and I love you for it."
"Oh, Draco..."
"Enough talking." Draco declared, surprising her by picking her off the floor. "Let's go to bed already."
Hermione woke up the next morning. Wincing from her aching muscles, she stretched and rubbed the sleep from her eyes. When her vision cleared she found herself on the floor in her healer uniform. Or what's left of it. She looked at Draco who was naked, asleep about a foot away from her. She glanced around, not recalling how they ended up on the floor.
