Hermione's POV

The next day everyone was at our house.Narcissa,Harry and Ginny with James,Luna,even Blaise was here.Draco invited him,it looks like they are still good friends.Neville didn't come because he was at Hogwarts,teaching.

"You're going to tell them" I whispered.

"Me? I don't even know how to start"

"Oh come on Draco..."

"Okay okay love.I will tell them"

"Tell us what?" asked Luna

"Er..." said Draco."We are gathered here today to give you some important news...Hermione and I...We'll get married"

Everyone got up and congratulated us.Everyome was happy for us,even Harry.

"Also..."

"There's more?!" asked Harry."What is it?"

He got closer to me and started stroking my belly."We're expecting a baby" he said smiling.

"What? I'm going to be a grandmother" said Narcissa excited.She got up and kissed me on my cheeks congratulating me and hugged Draco

"Oh,thanks God I'm going to see those days" she said wiping her tears away from her eyes

"Mother? You're crying?"

"Happy tears my dear" she said and she hugged Draco again.

"Congratulations Hermione"

"Thank you Ginny.Now James is going to have a little cousin he can play with" I said smiling.Harry hugged me"Congratulations Mione"

"Oh Harry" I said hugging him tight. "Thank you"

"I hope he makes you happy,or else...He know he'll be facing me"

"Oh Harry.Every relationship has it's ups and downs...Please don't treat him like that"

"Okay okay.You're right,I'm sorry"

"You deserve it.I'm sure you'll be a great mother" I heard a soft voice.

"Oh thank you Luna.I know you'll be a great mother too.How's the baby?"

"Oh it's good.I went to see it's gender a few days ago.It's a girl"

"Really? Luna this is amazing.Have you decided for her name yet?"

"Yes...I talked with Neville when he came to visit me in the weekend.Her name will be Alice,just like Neville's mother...I like that name" she said smiling

"Heey budy.So you're going to be a father huh?" said Blaise laughing.

"What's funny? I'm not going to be such a bad father" said Draco laughing.I just smiled.

"Granger,you have to look after him.He's still a child for himself,how is he going to raise a baby?" said Blaise laughing harder than ever

"I think you should call me by my name now" I said

"Oh yeah,sorry.Hermione..." he said

"That's better.And I think I'll get through it" I said smiling.

"Oh come on.I'm not a child anymore,of course I can take care of my child" said Draco

"I was only kidding mate"

"So where will be the wedding?" asked Ginny

"Oh no,we don't want a wedding.Only a simple ceremony" I said

"Yes.We don't want anything else.But I think it's going to be on March.We can make the ceremony in the backyard" said Draco

"Oh that's a wonderful idea" said Narcissa---"Goodnight everyone" I heard Draco saying as everyone left

He turned at me smiling."Hermione?" he said as his smile faded "Why are you crying?"

"I...I was thinking about my parents...How I wished they were here.How I wish they could see my child growing up"

"Don't worry dear" he said as he wiped my tears."They're watching you...And I know they are proud with you"

I hugged him."I love you Draco...I'm lucky to have you in my life"

"No.I'm the lucky one" he said kissing my forehead
