The marriage law

part 39

3 weeks later

"Isn't it like sixteen weeks or more before the gender can be told?" Hermione asked as she rested on the bed.

"For muggles maybe, for us the sex of the baby can be told in a matter of five weeks. You are six weeks pregnant," Madam Pomfrey informed her.

"Right," Hermione rested back.

A magical screen had appeared before her and Draco and she could see the baby there.

"Our baby," Draco whispered to her.

"Oh..." Hermione smiled.

"So have you decided whether you would like to know the sex of the baby or not?" Madam Pomfrey asked.

"We do want to know," Draco answered, looking at Hermione who nodded.

"Well I'm glad to say, the next Malfoy will be a girl," Madam Pomfrey smiled.

"A girl?" Draco whispered.

"I'm having a baby girl." Hermione grinned.

Draco leaned in and kissed her tenderly, "I love you."

"I love you too."

They said goodbye to Madam Pomfrey and headed to their common room.

"We need to think of names!" Hermione smiled.

"We still have eight months!" Draco replied.

"Yes but we need ideas," Hermione smiled again.

"Eight months!" Draco repeated as they entered the common room. Draco sat down and Hermione rested her head on his chest and lay on the sofa.

"So?" Hermione questioned. "We need to be prepared."

"Typical."

"What's that meant to mean?"

"What do you think it means Hermione?"

Hermione turned to him. "I hate you."

"I love you too."

Hermione sighed. She was tired. She closed her eyes slowly.

"Are you sleeping?" Draco whispered.

Hermione nodded, "I was throwing up a bit last night, couldn't sleep."

Draco nodded, "I know. I took a sleeping potion so I wouldn't wake up every time."

Hermione sat up and punched his arm, "Insensitive jerk."

"Well, if I stayed up then who would run around after you today?" Draco smirked.

"I hate that smirk!"

"Our daughter will smirk the famous Malfoy smirk."

"Oh Merlin, no!" Hermione fell back onto him.

Draco laughed, "I love you Hermione."

"I love you too," Hermione whispered.

She fell asleep slowly. Draco levitated her to their room, he placed her on the reformed double bed. He went back to the common room to resume his N.E. studies (yea right, more like lounge around!)

Blaise entered the room with books in his hands.

"Hey, how did the scan thing go?" Blaise asked.

"A girl, we're having a girl," Draco grinned.

"Congratulations mate," Blaise smiled. "Guess what?"

"What? You and Luna having a kid?"

"No, Luna and I are getting married, after Graduation."
