J (Insert mischievous Slytherin smirk here).

Enjoy! (I know I did while writing it!)

Last time

He brought his lips to mine for a quick, yet equally mind numbing kiss. He broke the kiss and smirked down at me.

"I've never seen you this eager to plot before Hermione. I like it."

"Really? Me too." I smirked back up at him.

"Enough with that smirk, Mrs. Malfoy, I'll have you know, that I taught you that smirk." He said playfully.

I continued to smirk. "I know you did. And no I don't think I will stop."

"Good." He responded before placing another kiss on my still smirking lips. I broke away and pushed him off of me lightly. He stepped back, a disappointed look on his face. I laughed and grabbed his hand pulling him down the hall.

"Don't worry Mr. Malfoy, there'll be more time for that later. Right now we have plotting to do."

"Right you are Mrs. Malfoy." He smiled back at me.

Let the games begin.

Yes indeed.

My inner voice giggled, I joined her.

Now Hermione's POV

I looked at my watch, 11:00, then looked up. I smiled as I saw Ginny and Harry approach. I nudged Draco in the shoulder, and turned back to face them. I smiled.

"Wow, only five minutes late. I'm impressed."

"Shut up." Ginny replied. Smiling back at me.

"Ready to go?"

"Absolutely."

I grasped Draco's hand and we all proceeded to walk down the snow covered road to Hogsmead village, anticipation and amusement clearly etched on all of our faces.

We entered the three broomsticks, and stomped our feet on the mat to relieve them of all their collected snow. The door closed behind us and we sighed happily as we were suddenly surrounded by warmth. I looked around, and then smiled as I saw Ron already sitting at a booth at the far end of the room. Nudging Draco I pointed. He smiled.

"Excellent."

We started to make our way over to his booth, however just as we were almost half-way there we froze. Ginny was the first to speak.

"Is that..."

"It couldn't be." Harry responded incredulously.

We all stared unbelievably at the person who had just exited from the ladies room and sat down next to Ron. I turned to Draco.

"Pansy? What is she doing here?"

"I think," said Draco, "That the real question is, what is she doing here sitting next to Weasley?"

"I think that's a bit obvious you two." Ginny said amusedly, pushing past me and heading towards the booth. Harry chuckled, "The more the merrier I guess." He said before following Ginny, Draco and I hot on their heels.

"Hey Ron!" Ginny exclaimed before sliding into the seat next to Pansy. Harry followed after her.

"Ginny? What are doing here?" Ron looked surprised, and then slightly guilty as he saw me and Draco slide in next to Harry.

"We're here for drinks oh dearest brother of mine." Ginny responded still smiling. Draco snorted, and I elbowed him in the side.

"Behave." I whispered.

"Whatever you say dear." He whispered back to me, smirking. I rolled my eyes, sighing slightly then turned my attention back to the rest of the group.

"And you?"

It was Ron that spoke, however it took a few seconds for me to realize that it was me that he was speaking to. I looked up to see his red, clearly embarrassed face staring in my direction.

"Excuse me?"

Ron gulped. "Why are you here? You probably hate me right now." He said softly his face reddening a bit more. I sighed then spoke.

"Of course I don't hate you Ron." I said smiling. He snapped his eyes back up to mine hope reflected in them.

"Really?"

I nodded. "Really. Draco and I made up. We talked about it and decided to forgive you. We realized that you've been my friend for too long, to let it break up over some stupid mistake."

Ron sighed in relief. "That's good, I guess...so umm...what are you doing here exactly?"

I smiled.

Here it comes

Finally, I'm dying of boredom here, let's get to the good stuff!

Shhh, I need to focus. Or do you want me to start laughing right now and blow the whole thing?!

Say no more. I have popcorn waiting anyways.

What?

I want to enjoy this!...Oh it's going to be awesome!

I rolled my eyes then focused back on the conversation. Ginny was talking.

"Actually Ron, Hermione said that she had something to talk to us about. Right Hermione?"

Ginny turned to me smiling. I smiled back and winked, making sure that neither Ron nor Pansy saw.

"Yes I do, we do actually." I responded, gesturing to Draco beside me. He smirked amusedly down at me. I returned the gesture and turned back to face the group.

"Could we get some drinks first though, I'm absolutely parched." The rest nodded enthusiastically and I nudged Draco who proceeded to wave down Madame Rosmerta from her place behind the bar. Within a few short minutes she was at the table.

"Butter beers all around." I ordered smiling. Rosmerta left, returning shortly after with our order which she placed on the table. Everyone grabbed their drinks and I turned back to the group, sipping my own. Draco however, nudged me and proceeded to speak in a voice just loud enough for everyone else at our table to hear.

"Should you really be drinking that Hermione?" I noticed Ron and Pansy both turn in our direction, slightly confused looks on their faces.

"Why not? Butter beer isn't alcoholic Draco, remember?" I said a slight chuckle in my voice. Ron spoke up.

"Why would it matter whether or not it's alcoholic Hermione?"

I smirked slightly before answering. "That's actually what I wanted to talk to you guys about." I said faking sheepfulness. Ginny grinned and leaned forward. The confused looks on Ron and Pansy's faces got stronger.

"What do you mean?" Ron continued leaning forward a bit in his seat.

I gulped. "The real reason that Draco and I asked you to come here was actually to tell you that...well...I'm pregnant." Draco emphasized the "news" by wrapping his arm around my waist, resting his hand softly on my stomach.

There was silence all around the table. I looked up and into the shocked, un-blinking, open mouthed faces of Ron and Pansy, and the widely grinning ones of Harry and Ginny.

"Oh my Gog! Hermione! Congratulations!!" Ginny squealed happily wrapping me in a tight embrace from her seat beside me. I smiled back, laughing.

"Thanks Ginny."

"WHAT!"

I whipped around to face Ron, the talker.

"You...you mean you...you're." He took a few deep breaths before sitting back down. When he spoke again it was very quietly. "I'm sorry, I just can't believe it."

"Well you better." I said wrapping my arm around Draco's waist while he tightened his hold around mine. Harry was the next to speak.

"This is for real right?"

I nodded.

"Cool. Though, it's still hard to believe...I mean...One of my best friends is having a baby."

I gulped. "Well actually...uh..."

Should I?

If I know what you're thinking, and I think I do, because if I didn't my job as your inner self would be pretty pointless otherwise, then yes you should.

It's not part of the plan though

Yeah, so? You're point is?

I smiled internally.

Let's do it.

Minnie me smiled Smart girl.

I focused back on the present.

"Actually ...um...It's babies...plural."

THUMP

It took all of my strength to keep a straight face when I saw that Ron had fainted. I heard a gasp and looked up at Pansy.

"Just how many are you having?" She asked incredulously. I could sense Ginny's body shaking in laughter beside me. I tried to hide my smirk.

"Three, actually. Triplets." My smile broadened and I turned to Draco who kissed me lightly on the lips.

"Y...you mean...?" Pansy stuttered.

It was getting harder now to keep my face straight. And it was too late before I realized that I shouldn't have look at Pansy's facial expression right then. I broke.

Clutching my sides in laughter I could barely make out Ginny doing the same beside me and both Harry and Draco laughing loudly on either side of us. When we finally broke for air I straightened myself out and wiped a tear away from my eye before turning back to Pansy, whose confusion had seemingly tripled.

"I'm sorry," laugh "I couldn't take it anymore, the urge to laugh was just too great." I laughed again.

"What do you..." I saw realization dawn on her face. "You're not pregnant are you?"

She stared at me, and I shook my head, grinning widely.

"Nope..."

"But why then?"

"Draco and I felt that we needed to get revenge on you and Ron for trying to break us up."

My face by this point had returned to normal, as did Harry's and Draco's. Ginny, however, was still shaking slightly. Pansy responded.

"Well, being me I hate to admit this, but we deserved it." She admitted sighing. I nodded.

"Yeah, you kind of did." I looked back at Pansy who was staring at the wooden table top. A few seconds of silence passed before suddenly and without warning, Pansy erupted in a fit of giggles. I smiled, confused.

"I have to admit, Granger, It was pretty funny wasn't it." Pansy said smiling at me. "I didn't think you had it in you."

"I've heard that one before." I said glancing at Draco who caught my eye and smirked. "And if you don't mind, the name's Malfoy." I said smirking. Draco chuckled lightly and Pansy smiled.

"I guess it is." Pansy looked around the table briefly, and then stood. We followed her actions, leaving our empty bottles and some money on the table.

Just as we were abound to leave Pansy looked down at the nearly forgotten Ron still unconscious on the floor. Pansy nudged him with her foot, and when he didn't respond, she nudged him again.

"Wow." She breathed, crouching down. "What a lightweight." Everyone laughed at this before Harry took out his wand and levitated Ron ahead of us and out of the three broomsticks.

"So" Ginny commented as all five of us plus the levitated Ron made our way back up to the castle. "Should we tell him?"

I giggled, "Personally Ginny I think it would be a bit cruel not to, and besides if we didn't, then he might spread the story around the school somehow and then where would we be?"

Ginny laughed in response. "So we'll tell him?"

I smirked. "...Eventually."

Draco laughed beside me. "So... Hermione?"

"Yeah?"

"You want to have triplets huh?"

"Of course not Draco! That was just for dramatic effect. And it worked."

"That it did."

We paused for a bit to catch up with the others. We were just coming up beside Harry, Ginny, Pansy, and the floating Ron before Draco spoke again.

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why don't you want triplets?"

I turned to him eyebrows raised.

"What?! I'm just asking."

I giggled lightly.

"I'm going to answer this from the point of view of a female then Draco."

"Alright," He smirked clearly amused.

I noticed Ginny step closer. She would love this.

"Let me ask you something."

"Shoot."

"How do you think you would feel if you had to push something about the size of a bludger out of a hole the size of a galleon? And then imagine doing it again two times right after that."

Ginny and Pansy burst out into laughter, I saw Harry shudder visibly. I turned to face Draco who had a look of pure horror on his face. He shuddered, and then resumed walking.

"I think you get my drift now Draco?"

He nodded slowly. "I think, Hermione, that I have just found renewed joy at being male."

I laughed, and saw Harry nod violently in agreement with Draco.

"You do that."

The only sound after that was the sound of Minnie me laughing hysterically inside my head.

Fast forward to the Head's common room after dinner still Hermione's POV

I snuggled in closer to Draco's chest as we lay on the couch in front of the fireplace. I inhaled deeply and sighed.

"If you're quite done sniffing me Hermione."

I blushed and hid my face in his shoulder; he tightened his grip on me, chuckling

"Don't worry Hermione, it's alright."

I raised my head, still blushing. Draco smiled down at me.

"Did I ever tell you how pretty you look when you blush?"

I shook my head and blushed deeper.

'Well, if I did, then I would have been lying."

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. Draco took one look at my face then and laughed.

"You look absolutely beautiful when you blush."

I smiled and rested my head on his chest again. Several minutes passed before I spoke again.

"Umm, Draco?"

"Yeah?"

I sat up from my spot between his arms and shifted down to the other end of the couch where I leaned my back against the armrest to face Draco. He looked confused for a short bit before he seemingly shrugged my actions off and proceeded to lift my feet onto his lap and massage them.

"This is sort of awkward to ask, and you don't have to answer of you don't want to."

Draco looked at me confusedly. "What do you mean? Just say it. I assure you I won't think it's awkward at all."

I sighed. "It's sort of related to today actually."

Draco raised an eyebrow at me but didn't say anything. "Alright."

I tried not to blush but failed horribly, Draco noticed this. "Come on Hermione, you're killing me here." He laughed, "Just say it, it's all right."

I sighed, and then finally spoke. "Do you want kids?"

Draco's hands on my feet paused for a fraction of a second before resuming their massage. Draco looked up at me, amusement and something else I couldn't place, clearly showing behind his eyes.

"Is that supposed to be some sort of subtle hint for something Hermione, because if it is I swear we are going to have to do some talking."

I stared at him before fully registering what he said. I burst into a small fit of laughter.

"Geez, no! You've known me for almost seven years now, when have you ever seen me pregnant Draco?"

"Never, that's true, However, there was a whole lot of time before I even knew you."

I stared at him incredulously, "You think I got pregnant at ten!"

"Of course not Hermione! I was joking."

"You better be because quite frankly the thought of being pregnant at ten is just disturbing."

He chuckled and I leaned over and swatted his shoulder.

"Ow. What's with the spousal abuse?"

I shook my head and rolled my eyes, smiling. Draco smiled back and resumed massaging my feet. A few moments past before I spoke again.

"So do you?"

"Do I what?"

"Do you want children?"

Draco sighed then dragged me back over to his side of the couch, once again enveloping me in his arms.

"You want the truth?"

I nodded against his chest.

"Yes."

"What?" I lifted my head up to see him grinning down at me.

"Yes I do want children...eventually. Not now of course, we're still in school, but I can definitely see myself sometime in the future as a father."

I stared up at him. "Really?" Then I cast my eyes down. "What about my blood?" I said softly, slowly. I felt Draco lift my chin up to face him with one of his fingers. He stared me in the eyes.

"What about your blood?"

"You're entire family is filled with Purebloods. And I'm a muggleborn. Any children, if any, which we could have, would be half blood."

Draco chuckled softly. "Hermione, Haven't I made it clear to you that I don't care about blood status anymore?"

I blushed. "Well...yeah..."

He could see that I was still a bit unconvinced. He sighed.

"Let's put it this way. If I was still a prejudiced, pureblood prick would I currently be snuggling, quite close I might add, in front of a fireplace with a smart, beautiful muggleborn witch, who just happens to be my wife as well?"

I shook my head.

"And. If I was a prejudiced, pureblood prick would I do this?"

I stared as he leant forward and captured my lips in his. Once again I felt fireworks and butterflies erupt all at once in my stomach, and as I sighed into him and kissed him back I noticed a new feeling in the pit of my stomach. It was one that I hadn't noticed ever before, almost indescribable, however if I could describe it, it would be a warm, filling, and...completing sensation.

It was at that point I realized that I was truly happy.

I was content.

I was complete.

Ten more minutes passed after that kiss before Draco nudged me.

"Time for bed Hermione."

I glanced up at him tiredly, and yawned, nodding. We stood up and climbed the stairs to our bedroom where we entered and then parted as I went into the closet to change. I chose my Emerald green silk one with the silver lacing, and then exited the closet to find Draco about to get into bed. I giggled slightly when I saw what sleeping boxers he was wearing. He looked up at me.

"What?"

"Draco, you do realize that you're boxers are still red do you?"

After I had changed their colour from green to red while our bodies were switched, I still would have thought that by now he had noticed and would have changed them back.

He looked down then back up at me smiling.

"Yeah I know. What about them? I notice you are currently wearing the Slytherin colours."

"Green and silver are my favourite as you perfectly well already know. I just thought that, with you being the big bad Slytherin that you would have changed the colour back to green."

"It's starting to grow on me actually, if you don't mind. And besides my beautiful wife whom is a Gryffindor is currently wearing a short nighty in the Slytherin colours so I really don't see what the problem is." He responded casually while sitting under the covers. He patted the mattress beside him and grinned up at me. I rolled my eyes, smiling, turned off the lights and got into my side of the bed. Turning onto my side I smiled as I felt Draco wrap his arms around me and pull my body back tightly against his.

"Do you mind?" I heard him ask softly.

Instead of speaking, my response was simply to wrap my top arm around his, clasping it closer into myself. I sighed and closed my eyes.

Maybe there is hope, yet still, eh Hermione?

I closed my eyes and smiled.

This is where I belong.
