Hermione Pov

Everyone turns to us expectantly. I'm still holding Teddy, he's laying his head on my shoulder sleepily, it looks like a cute hug so I hold him tighter then move him onto my lap, holding up the upper half of his body, cradling him and tapping him gently to encourage him to have his nap now. "Uh, where to start?" I say. "Well, Draco and I got married last year, a month after his court case. It happened really fast and only family was invited. Really sorry about that but we didn't have time to tell you all about us. Well... Fred and George already knew, and have always known since the beginning. They just never said anything."
Molly's eyes turn to her twins. A glare so deadly I'm sure Bellatrix has sensed it in Hell. She turns back to me with a smile "Please continue dear."

I sense amusement from my ring. Draco is laughing quietly. I continue tapping Teddy then I swiftly kick Draco's foot to tell him to behave. I take in a breath then say "They found out that we got married back in December when we came home from Hogwarts. Dray...co has affinity for being dramatic."

Suddenly Harry starts clutching his arm and whining "It's killed me, it's killed me."

We all start laughing at Draco's expense, well minus of course the people who didn't attend Hogwarts that year. "Oh grow up, Potter," Draco groans. "Did you know how much trouble I went through sort things out after that."

"Another time, love," I mutter. "Now's not the time to explain how you have been helping us in secret."

Harry and Ron's eyes widen, "Say again?" Harry exclaims.

Draco chuckles, "Who do you think gave Mya the paper on the basilisk in second year,  did you really think she ripped a paper out of a book? Ever. The Hermione Granger damaging a book, school property at that. No I gave her the paper from a book I found in Flourish and Blotts."

"Not the time," I say again.

"Sorry, Mya," Draco says. "Please continue."

I hear Arthur mutter "Such a polite chap."

I chuckle then bite my lip, "I... well Draco and I have been friends since first year, all his remarks towards me about my blood status and things, it was really just an act, I... I actually asked Draco to call me the 'M' word -to make the acts more believable."

"What about the stuff he said to Harry and Ron?" Ginny asks.

"He meant pretty much 99% of what he said," I sigh shaking my head.

"99.9%," Draco chimes.

"What about your parents? Did they object to anything?" Fleur asks, looking at Draco.

"Well Hermione is the one thing my father didn't hear about," Draco explains laughing slightly. "But Mother and Mya's parents knew. Whenever we got the chance we met up in Muggle London away from prying eyes."

"One detail about the abruptness of our wedding is that Draco never courted me," I say looking at Molly. "He didn't want to waste time when we already knew everything about each other."
"I see," Molly nods. 

Teddy's body relaxes in my hold, he's fallen asleep. I hand him to Draco and rest my arms. "We have been telling some people, in our own ways. The Lovegoods, Andromeda and Teddy all knew because they attended the wedding as Draco's family, Blaise worked it out from seeing Draco's wedding ring, Kreacher knew because he saw my picture appear on the Black Family tree before I charmed it -sorry Harry."

"You forgot the school faculty, Theo and She-Weasel," Draco says. "And you forgot that Potter and Weasley have known about us and these two since January. They chose to ignore the fact that we actually told them a while ago."

There are two loud whacking sounds then we see both clutching parts of their bodies. Molly of course hit Ron but Harry was hit by none other than Fred. "Fred?" George exclaims with surprise. "I thought we agreed that I'd get to whack him?"

"Sorry," he shrugs. "But he's supposed to be her best friend. How would you feel if you secretly married a Slytherin and I decide to ignore you and your marriage all together?"

"That's very unlikely since I don't know any Slytherin girls our age," he chuckles. "But yeah, you would need a whack."

"Is that everything Hermione?" Arthur asks.

"Well, we're fostering Teddy but other than that no," I say nervously as I lean onto Draco's arm for emotional support.

Draco leans forward and pats my head then turns to the Weasleys, "We'd just like you approval and we'll be out of your hair for the day."

Molly sighs, "There's nothing to disapprove of, dears. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters."

"You heard her," Arthur says. "Ron, Harry, get on your knees and apologise for your ridiculous behaviour."
