Underoos!

Wish you’d let me stay, I’m ready now I’m not ready, eyes heavy now

To all nurses, doctors, paramedics, pharmacists and medical people out there helping others who are sick, thank you.

To all janitors and cleaners out there dealing with contaminated stuff to keep others safe, thank you.

People are probably being awful to you for things you can’t control. I’m sorry you have to deal with that.

No one really believes her, not about Draco Malfoy. The sharp edges of his character have been softened, and there is lightness in his eyes and the way with which he carries himself. Everyone often tells her, “Oh, he’s the same prat, just taller,” and they laugh at old memories and continue chatting away. He’s still stoic, of course, and silver-tongued when irritated, and he still maintains an abrasiveness and unrestrained candor when he finds fault in others. Draco Malfoy is certainly not perfect, but ask Hermione Granger, and she’ll say with sparkling confidence:

“He’s a wonderful father.”

“Oi, sprog, no pinching–Granger, a little help?” Scorpius is restless and mumbling unintelligible but frustrated sounds, his hands anchoring on Draco’s face in an effort to pull away and reach for her.

Hermione laughs and enjoys the moment a little longer, how her heart swells at the mere sight of father and son. She never thought she’d be good for motherhood, not in the same way Ginny easily took to it. It had been an ideal scenario in her mind but never one to be realized. But here, with Scorpius and Draco, she feels in her element.

She reaches out for the younger blond. “Come here, darling.”

Scorpius’ baby laughter is infectious as Hermione lifts him into the air and presses her nose against his. He squeals in merriment and babbles on, grabbing at her hair in his tiny fists, and blowing bubbles with his mouth at the same time he’s puzzled by such an ability. When Draco catches his eye, his son blinks widely and grins gummily, and Draco can’t fight the smile that spreads across his face.
