Taking Chances
Chapter Nine
With Open Arms
Hermione had now been staying at the Manor for nearly a week. Throughout the week, Ginny and Harry had visited and Ron and Molly had sent her letters. Most of Hermione's time was spent laying in Draco's bed reading; she even helped Draco with some of his contracts for work.
On her seventh day of living with the Malfoy's she joined them for a formal dinner. She showered and dressed in a simple navy blue dress which highlighted her now very prominent bump. She pulled her hair back into a messy curly bun and applied light make up. Although she felt tired and fat, she wanted to make an effort.
At seven o'clock, Draco escorted Hermione down to the family dining room to meet his parents. They stopped outside of the door and Draco looked at Hermione.
'You are beautiful do you know that?' Draco said as he leaned in to kiss Hermione.
'Thank you but I don't feel it. I feel fat and frumpy.' Hermione said.
'You've hardly gained any weight Hermione, you make have even lose some. You have only really started showing.' He said as he placed his hand on her pregnanct stomach.
'Thank you.' She said as she kissed his cheek.
'I was thinking after dinner why don't we go for a walk in the garden if you feel okay and open the envelope?' He asked.
'I think that's a wonderful idea.' Hermione said as she smiled.
'Let's get dinner over and done with then.' He said as he opened the door to the dining room.
Dinner past quickly and painlessly for Hermione. Hermione found Narcissa very welcoming although when she found out Hermione had spent the night sleeping in Draco's bedroom was not to happy. After Draco had told his mother he wanted Hermione and the baby close to him if anything should happen, his mother backed down.
Lucius had started to come round to Hermione. He would always ask about the baby everyday and also send Hermione books to keep her entertained while on bed rest. He even offered her a job if she wished when he saw the work she had done on Draco's contracts.
After dinner, Draco and Hermione put on their cloaks and went out to the gardens. Hand in hand they walked down to the rose gardens and sat on the swing together.
Draco wrapped Hermione up in his cloak and kissed her head. 'What would you like?' He asked.
'I really don't mind. As long as the baby is healthy with ten toes and ten fingers I will be happy.' She said as she looked up at Draco. 'You want a boy don't you?' she asked.
'I would like a boy sometime but I'd also like a girl as well.' Draco said as he smiled. 'I imagine us with a boy and a girl.'
'I want three children.' Hermione said as she smiled.
'Three?' Draco said.
'Yep.' Hermione replied. 'I've always thought of having three girls.'
'Three girls?' Draco said as he thought about it. 'I would be forever surrounded by women.'
'You'd love that.' Hermione said. 'No but I would really love a boy as well.'
'It would be odd for a Malfoy to have more than one child.' Draco said as he moved his hand down to Hermione's bump. 'For years, there have only been Malfoy heirs manly men. I believe the last female child born was my great, great, great some more great grandmother.'
'What was her name? Do you know?' Hermione asked.
'I believe her name was Annabel.' He said as he looked at Hermione. 'Malfoy's normally only have one child but Annabel was the second, the brother was born first and carried on the name.'
'And what did she do? Did she get married?' Hermione asked as she looked at Draco intently interested in the history of his family.
'She was disowned. At the age of eighteen she married a muggleborn wizard and her parents disowned her.' He said as he looked at Hermione.
'So just like that they disowned their own daughter!' Hermione asked.
'That's what most pureblood families did back then.' Draco said. 'Of course it's different now. Anyway Annabel went onto have three children, all boys and she lived happily with her husband and her parents missed out on their three Grandsons.'
'It's just a shame.' Hermione said. 'I would never disown my son or daughter. Would you? I mean say if our daughter or son decided to marry a muggle, not a muggleborn but just a plan muggle would you disown our child?'
'Never.' Draco said as he looked at Hermione. 'I promise you; even if I did not want that I would never cut our children off.'
'Good.' Hermione said as she sighed.
'So shall we open the envelope?' Draco asked.
'Okay.' She said as she bit her lip. 'You do it, I can't.'
Draco slowly undid the envelope and then stopped as he was about to look in. He looked at Hermione and smiled. 'Still sure?' he asked.
'Very.' Hermione said as she nodded for Draco to continue.
Draco slowly took out the folded piece of paper from the envelope and pulled it out. He held it in his hands and then slowly unfolded the piece of paper and saw what was written.
