Well here it is, the conclusion of Valentine's Morning. This is the last chapter. Please review! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: as always…
Hermione Granger was currently curled up in her husband's lap recounting the story of that fateful Valentine's Day exactly 10 years ago. She smiled at the memory of everything that had transpired in those last ten years.
Exactly 8 years ago, Hermione and Draco had had a beautiful Valentine's Day wedding. As Draco had predicted, Narcissa had quickly come to love Hermione like her own daughter.
They were all extremely happy when 7 years ago, their daughter Elizabeth Claudia Malfoy had been born on May 17th.
5 years ago, their twin girls had been born on August 26th. They had been named Virginia Rachel Malfoy and Emily Alexandra Malfoy.
And just 2 years ago, Hermione had given birth to their only boy, Xavier James Malfoy.
Not only had Hermione and Draco gotten married, but their friends had followed them in to matrimony as well.
One year after Lizzie's birth, Ginny and Blaise had gotten married in Italy. Less than a year later, Venice Hermione had been born.
Ginny and Blaise had settled into married life and doted on their daughter. So it came as a great shock when Ginny found out she was pregnant again only days after Hermione had announced she was expecting again. The real kicker came however when it was revealed that Ginny was carrying not one, not two, but three babies. They were born only days after Xavier and are currently toddling around the Zambini mansion wearing their parents out.
Any visitor at the mansion would usually hears exhausted parents calling out
"Kayden Draconis Zambini! Put that done this instant!"
Or
"Marianne Priscilla Zambini! Don't make me raise my voice with you!"
Or
"Annebelle Molly Zambini! What have you done now?"
From either of the worn out parents.
Harry and Pansy Potter are frequent visitors at both Manors. They have been married only 2 years and are expecting their first child in June.
Ron and Lavender got married almost as soon as they got off the Hogwarts Express for the last time. The Weasley family grudgingly accepted the marriage but quickly decided that Ron and Lavender were not pleasant people to be around. To date, Lavender has given birth to 9 kids in 10 years.
Ronald Jr., born 6 months after they married,
Lavender Jr., born 2 years after their marriage,
Lucy and Susie, born 3 years after their marriage,
Peter, born 4 years after their marriage,
Violet, Amber, and Ruby, born 6 years after their marriage,
And Christopher was born 8 years after Ron and Lavender got married.
However, their family is still growing, as Lavender is due to give birth to twins within weeks.
All in all, the Zambinis, the Malfoys, the Potters, and most of the Weasleys live in a very tight group quite happily. Hermione and Draco are finally happy, surrounded by friends and family.
Hermione leaned into her husband's chest and watched Lizzie play with her siblings. She sat up and kissed him gently on the lips, he responded eagerly. A few minutes later, she murmured into his lips,
"Things turned out rather well, didn't it?"
Draco chuckled and kissed her forehead gently saying,
"That they did love, that they did."
