Our Daughter
Chapter Six
'Lucius, I mean it. I will not have Isla messed about. I am trying to give her a stable upbringing and I won't have that messed with.' She said as she stood up. 'She is everything to me; she got me through some hard times, without her I don't know whether I'd still be here.'
'What do you mean?' He said as he looked up at his one time lover.
'After the War, before I knew I was pregnant I thought of ending my life. I had the pills ready and everything. I wanted to end my life, I didn't think it was worth living anymore; the War had changed me and being alone was hard.' She said as she walked to the fireplace. 'Then I found out I was pregnant.'
'Tell me how you found out?' He said.
'I started being sick; I thought it was a virus. I went to Molly and asked her for a potion and she asked me if it was possible I was pregnant, I knew there could have been a possibility as we didn't use a charm that night before the Finale Battle so I asked her to perform the pregnancy charm to see if I was and as she did a huge white light shone from my stomach.' She said smiling at the memory. 'And from then on I had something to live for.'
'Did you ever think of telling me?' He asked.
'I tried many times actually. I wrote so many letters but I never sent them. I actually kept them.' She said as she turned to him.
'I take it by the Weasley's reaction they don't know that I fathered Isla?' he said saying his daughter's name for the first time.
'Of course they don't.' She spat. 'I couldn't exactly say that I had shagged Lucius Malfoy and was carrying his child. They would have thought I was mad for one and that I was some kind of whore.'
'You are not a whore Hermione.' He said as he looked at her.
'They would have never understood that I loved you.' She said as she turned around and lit the fire.
'Will they understand now?' he asked as he stood up.
'I don't know. Harry and Ginny they love Isla; there her God-parents but I don't know how they'll feel now they know especially as you tried to kill them both multiply times.' She said softly.
'That was in the past. They're good friends to you Hermione and I doubt they will disown you. Give them time.' He said as he stood next to her.
'Will you tell Draco?' she said as she looked up at him.
Lucius didn't get the opportunity to answer as Isla's cry interrupted them. Lucius looked towards the nursery and then at Hermione.
'Can I see her?' he asked.
'I'll bring her out once I've changed her.' Hermione said as she walked towards the nursery.
Hermione entered Isla's nursery and went to her crying daughter. She picked her up out of the crib and held her close trying to comfort her.
'You normally sleep for a good few hours.' Hermione said as Isla quietened down. 'I bet it's because you know he's out there don't you?'
'Mama.' Isla said as she nuzzled into Hermione's neck.
'Let's get you changed and into something more comfortable.' She said as she walked to the changing mat and changed Isla's nappy.
She then dressed Isla in pink jumper dress not bothering to put tights on her knowing Isla would only get holes in them crawling about as she wasn't yet walking. She picked Isla up and kissed her on the cheek and slowly walked to the door.
This would be the first time Isla met her father. The first time she would set eyes on the man who fathered her. After today there was no turning back. Hermione took one last look at her daughter and then kissed her head.
'Here we go.' She whispered to herself as she opened the door.
Hermione opened the nursery door and took a single step into the living room. Lucius looked up at them and a small smile graced his lips. He didn't know whether to stand up or to stay sitting or to approach them or not.
Hermione walked to the sofa and sat down with Isla on her lap. Isla looked at Lucius with her dark blue eyes and then looked at Hermione.
'Look' she said as she pointed to Lucius like he was a picture on the wall.
'I know. That's Lucius.' She said with a small smile. 'He's come to see you.'
'Me?' she questioned although it was more like repeating what her mother said. 'Mama.' She said as she struggled to get off Hermione's lap. She wanted to explore.
As soon as her little bare feet hit the carpet she was off crawling. She went straight to Lucius's legs and sat at his feet looking up at him. She then pointed to him and shouted 'look' again trying to make her mother look at the new person sitting in their living room.
'Yes, Lucius.' Hermione repeated.
Isla looked up at Lucius and then placed her hands on his trousers and pulled herself up to standing. Hermione edged forward on the sofa wanting to hold her baby close to her.
Lucius held out his hands slowly and watched as Isla placed her soft baby skinned hands in his large hands. Isla giggled as she bounced herself on her feet as she gripped onto Lucius.
Isla let go off Lucius's hands and fell onto her nappy covered bottom. She looked shocked for a second but soon smiled again showing off her few white teeth. She then put her arms up and shouted to Lucius.
'Up! Up!' she said with enthusiasm
Lucius looked at Isla and then at Hermione as if asking acceptance to do what the little girl wanted. Hermione nodded slowly and Lucius lifted Isla onto his lap.
Isla sat comfortably against Lucius's chest and smiled up at him. She reached out her hand for his hair and wound her fingers in it. Hermione giggled slightly and then thought of the times after they had, had sex when she would wove her fingers in her fingers, she loved how soft his hair felt.
Lucius pulled Isla's hand away from his hair and smiled down at the little girl. He held onto her little hand and placed kisses on her tiny fingers making her chuckle; a real baby belly laugh.
'She's like Draco was as a young infant.' Lucius said. 'Looks similar to him too.'
'I can't see it.' Hermione said as she looked at Lucius. 'How will Draco take the news? He'll realise Isla was conceived close after his mother's death.'
'I expect he will be upset but once he meets her that will change.' He said as he ran his fingers through his daughter's curly hair which she got from her mother.
'I'm sure he'll love to know that we were together.' Hermione said as she looked at Lucius.
'That's none of his business.' He said as he looked at Hermione. 'All people need to know is we conceived a child together and we are both raising her together.'
'By together you mean parenting together.' Hermione said.
'No I mean as a family.' He said.
Hermione shook her head as she looked at Lucius. 'I won't stop you ever seeing Isla Lucius. You are her father and the father of my child but that is it.'
'Don't lie Hermione, you know I mean more to you than that.' Lucius said as he rocked a tired Isla in his arms.
'You may have meant something to me two years ago but not anymore.' Hermione said as she stood up and walked to Lucius. She picked Isla out of Lucius's arms and pressed a kiss on her head and walked in front of the fire place. 'This doesn't change anything. You will see Isla while I am around until I am comfortable with leaving her alone with you.'
'Have you forgotten I've done this before? I have a son who is your age! I know what to do with a baby.' He said getting angry.
'Do you? I thought Draco was raised by a nanny. You only bothered with him when it suited you.' She said as she glared at him. 'If you want to be a father with Isla, you have to be hands on otherwise you know where the door is.'
'I'll take you to court Hermione.' He said with a glare.
'All I am asking if that for the first couple of times she meets you I'm there. Afterwards you can have her for the day and maybe overnight once a month or something but for now I want to be there.' She said as she looked at Isla. 'I know you would never hurt her Lucius, I know you remember.'
Lucius walked towards the mother of his child and his daughter and looked at Hermione. 'That's perfectly fine.' He said with a soft smile. 'That's all I want...for know.'
'That's all you're getting Lucius.' She said as she looked up from Isla.
Lucius smirked as he touched Hermione's cheek knowing she couldn't stop him because she was holding a now sleeping Isla. 'You still love me Hermione I can see it in your eyes.'
Hermione moved away from him sharply and glared. 'You should go. I have things to do.' She said.
Lucius only nodded and stood by the fireplace as he watched Hermione walk towards the nursery. As she was about to walk into the nursery she stopped and spoke. 'I may still love you Lucius but you've never loved me.' And with that she left him alone in her living room slightly taken back.
