My Lovely Family

"Draco, do you think that maybe you could calm down a bit?" Pansy fixed her hair in the mirror.

Draco looked annoyed out of the corner of his eye at Pansy so she wouldn't see.

"It's not really a big deal," Pansy smiled at her elegant hairstyle and kissed Draco on the cheek.

Draco sighed," It is a big deal. Drake is going to Hogwarts and he is going to be top student and Head Boy of Slytherin."

Pansy snorted," Not if he's got Weasley blood in him. You know how thick they are."

Draco shot her an annoyed look and she added in," Their blood anyway."

"Well, with Lucy being there at Hogwarts and her being a prefect and all. She's got a good chance."

Once again, Pansy snorted.

Draco married Pansy as soon as they left from Hogwarts. Pansy had only become pregnant years later in their marriage. They later on separated, Pansy openly accusing that Draco was having an affair with Ginny Weasley. Draco admitted to this and found himself at Ginny's door, dripping wet with rain and tears.

After Ginny told Draco that things weren't working, Draco decided to work things out with Pansy. The only thing that stopped him from moving on was Ginny's unexpected pregnancy.

Now all things had worked out. Draco now lived happily with his wife Pansy Malfoy and his two children. Three, on occasion.

Pansy had now fixed herself up for the day and was going to help her children get ready.

She left Draco alone admiring himself in the mirror.

One of the house elves told her good morning and she smiled, continuing on with her affairs.

"...So that's how all the houses were formed..." Pansy could here her oldest girl Lucy talking to her baby brother Jude.

"I hope that everything's in order with your school trunk. Did you change your cat litter?"

Lucy looked up over her shoulder at her mother and sighed," Yes mother. Everything's in order. The house elves have already prepared my things. I even had them change my cat litter."

Jude stood up and walked over to his mother reaching out his arms," Mummy!"

Pansy was never keen on showing her emotion. A lot of people had even nick named her "Ice Queen". But nothing ever stopped her from showing her emotion when it came to her children. Although, she had taken to treating Lucy more like an adult.

She was definitely looking the part of one.

Lucy was in her sixth year and had been Slytherin prefect for two years running. Pansy and Draco were sure she was an open candidate for being Head Girl. Lucy never skipped homework, never was sick, and never had anything bad on her school record. Deputy Headmaster Snape thought she was a model of excellence for fellow Hogwarts students.

Lucy was so mature, that she was already dressed in her Hogwarts uniform from head to foot. Her platinum blond hair was in a low ponytail. Her hair brushed her back as she moved her head around. She had Pansy's smug smile and Draco's beautiful eyes. The very same eyes that made Pansy fall in love with him. She was very tall and very slim, but had great legs. Draco always told her so, too. Lucy was very head strong and always defended the Malfoy name. Alongside her younger brother Drake.

Jude kissed Pansy on the cheek and Pansy returned the kiss. Noticing that he was still in his pajamas, Pansy head down to his bedroom.

Lucy followed. Pansy could always tell when something was bothering her.

"Narcissa Lucille, is there something bothering you? You know, I can always tell."

Lucy pouted. She hated being called by her full name. It sounded so...vein. But vain she was not.

"I wanted to talk to you about a boy."

"Young man. You wanted to talk to me about a young man."

Lucy rolled her eyes once more.

"You don't have to correct me dear mother. He's a mere boy to me."

"Well, let's have his name before it's two hours later."

Lucy ignored this last comment and continued.

"Well, you might get mad at me for saying this, but I think he's attractive."

"He's named Attractive?" Sarcasm was running high today at the Malfoy manor.

Lucy stomped her foot.

"Well, he's in his sixth year and he's not a Slytherin."

Pansy didn't say anything, she continued to dress little Jude.

"You promise you won't be mad?"

Pansy stopped dressing Jude and looked over her right shoulder at Lucy," I will be mad if you never get to the plot of this story, that could have been shortened to a simple sentence."

"Wow mother! That was long winded."

"Stop changing the subject Narcissa Lucille. I want to know now. Don't mention anything else; just tell me about this boy."

"Boy?" Draco was standing in the doorway, not knowing what was going on.

Both Pansy and Lucy looked at him jumping at the sound of his voice. Lucy turned back to look at Pansy and shook her head. Pansy cleared her throat.

"It's some boy that Jude plays with and Lucy wanted to know if he had an older sister."

"Really, I didn't know there was a little boy that Jude plays with."

"Draco, dam-" Pansy cut her sentence short. Although she rarely did lose her temper, it was quick. Draco's thickness drove her and Lucy crazy.

Lucy laughed and stood on her tiptoes to kiss Draco on his cheek," Father, I think sometimes even Jude understands more than you do. I'm going to get my trunk and bring it downstairs." Lucy left out of the room-eyeing Pansy.

"I think you two are hiding something from me." Draco knelt down and ruffled Jude's hair.

Pansy and I are hiding nothing.

"Boy!" Was all Jude yelled.

Draco and Pansy both smiled. Jude was the apple of Pansy's eye. Yes, she loved Lucy and she adored Drake, but Jude was her baby and he never gave her any problems. Now here she was dressing her young son in a green sweater, khaki pants, and dark brown mountain boots. Jude couldn't help but inherit Draco's blond hair and good looks. Pansy was actually glad for that. The thing that Pansy loved was that Jude had inherited her character traits. Jude acted a lot like Pansy's father, so therefore he was named Peter Judeas Malfoy. Jude was only four years old and Pansy called him her miracle. If it hadn't been for Jude, her and Draco would have attempted murder on each other.

"Boy?" Draco asked. "What about this boy? What's his name?"

Jude shrugged. Pansy stood up and picked up Peter.

"You entertain Jude. I'm going to go talk to Lucy about Hogwarts."

Pansy passed Jude over to Draco and left out of the room.

"Are they keeping a secret from us, Jude?" Draco asked.

Jude shook his head. "Are we going to see Drake, daddy?"

Draco nodded his head and smiled. "You are a very smart young man. As a matter of fact, you're pure genius."

Draco was not a sensitive man, but he wouldn't be cold with his children like his father was with him.

Pansy went to Lucy's room and noticed that she had her head bent low. She seemed to be reading something. After she finished, she looked up at the owl, smiling.

"Thank you, Perseus. I'll reply in a few seconds." She stroked the owl and turned to her desk, jumping at the sight of Pansy.

"Mother, I didn't hear you come in. How long have you been standing there?"

Pansy smiled, "Not long enough. I should have come earlier to see whom that owl was delivered from. So, am I going to find out who this boy is?"

Lucy didn't return the smile. She was no longer calm and collected, she had nervous written across her face.

"He plays Quidditch." Lucy looked down.

Pansy laughed," Why do you look so glum?"

"I thought you might not approve of the fact that he played Quidditch."

Pansy continued her patronizing laugh.

"Mother, you're looking down on me, because he plays Quidditch."

"Oh Lucy, I could care less what he does. Unless he isn't a Death Eater in training. You know how I feel about that. And I don't care if he's a Slytherin either." Pansy walked over and put her hand on Lucy's shoulder.

Lucy smiled. "Well okay, mum. His name is..."

Draco heard a muffled scream and walked down to Lucy's room with Jude following closely behind him.

The sight that welcomed Draco as he stood in the doorway of Lucy's room was not a becoming one. Pansy was fanning herself on Lucy's purple four poster, and Lucy was hurriedly writing a letter.

Ignoring the sight, Draco said," well, we need to hurry up. I want to meet Drake at Diagon Alley. Is everything all right?" His eyes darted from a flabbergasted Pansy to a shaky Lucy.

"Narcissa, is everything okay?"

Pansy stood up and walked pass Draco and picked up Jude, " Don't ask Draco. Let's go so we can meet Drake Weasley."

"Malfoy," Draco corrected her. What am I missing here? Draco thought to himself.

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

"You were quiet the whole way." Draco turned to Pansy, then Lucy. "The both of you," he added.

Draco left Lucy with her mother and Jude to find Harry and his son and Drake standing outside of the Quality Quidditch Supplies shop.

Draco walked over to them and rolled his eyes at the large Chudley Cannons poster of Ron Weasley on display in the window.

"Hello Potter. Hi little Jamie and let's not forget the big man of the day."

Drake smiled and looked down at his shoes, "Hi dad. Harry and I were talking about my spot on the Quidditch team. Although, I don't have one yet."

Draco smiled, " Son, I'm sure you'll be excellent with Quidditch when the time comes. I guess I'll take him off your hands now." Draco ruffled Drake's blond hair.

"You should really cut that you know."

Harry and Drake both ignored that last comment made by Draco.

Harry sighed," Draco, Jamie and I'll be waiting at Platform Nine-and-Three-Quarters for Drake. We want to see him off."

"Yeah," Jamie added in.

"Lucy, how exactly did you and this boy began to attract each other?"

Lucy hesitated.

Pansy shook her head," You may as well tell me since I already know that you even think of the whole lot of them as producing something remotely close to attractive."

"Mother, for goodness sakes, call him by his name. And I like him because he's nice. Besides, most of the girls think he's the most eligible bachelor at Hogwarts."

"Honestly, you make it sound as if he's the only young man around. And it's not as if you're all noblewomen and he's your only suitor. Now, proceed to tell me how you met him."

"Fine then, we met in detention."

Draco came around to see Pansy fanning herself once again. This time it looked as if she had attempted to pass out. Pansy had a knack for passing out in the heat of the moment.

Lucy turned to see Drake and flashed a sincere smile. The only one not afraid to show his emotions was Jude, who ran to embrace Drake in a hug as soon as he spotted him.

"Hi Drake!" Drake returned the hug and walked over to Pansy and she gave him a slight hug.

"Hi Pansy," Drake smiled shyly at her.

Pansy, sounding flustered said," How many times have I told you to call me mother?" She patted his back.

Draco laughed mentally at this odd show of affection.

Drake only smiled.

"Pansy I was just telling Drake here about how excellent Slytherin is. Right, Lucy?"

Lucy smiled at Drake," Yes, Slytherin is excellent, but..."

"But what?" Draco and Pansy asked.

"Never mind." Lucy decided to leave her comment in the back of her head.

Draco smiled at Drake," I think that you will become Head Boy like I know your sister Lucy will be."

Lucy blushed.

"I decided that we're going to get something to dine on before you two head to Hogwarts. I thought it would be nice to have family time together."

Everyone excluding Jude looked at Draco with surprise.

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

The family outing hadn't turned out for the best. Everyone sat in silence, except for Jude how told Drake the story of how Hogwarts was formed. Occasionally, Draco would boast about his three gorgeous children.

So, with that, they made their way through the platform, meeting with Harry and his young son Jamie.

Drake looked up at Draco and Draco looked at Harry.

Harry walked over to them all," Hello, family. How's everything going?"

"Fine, Potter. How about you and Ginny?"

With that comment being said, Pansy looked at Draco with a hint of jealousy in her eyes. Draco knew deep down that Pansy would never forgive him about the Ginny Weasley incident. Mainly because he knew that deep down there were still feelings for Ginny.

"Fine."

Drake cleared his throat," Dad, can I talk to Harry?"

Draco looked surprised, but then smiled. "Sure you can. We'll be over here waiting."

"I wonder what they're going to talk about?" Pansy paid close attention to Harry and Drake as they walked off.

Lucy shook her head," I don't think it really concerns us mother."

Draco smiled in the corner of his mouth. Lucy always seemed to have a sarcastic remark to anything that Pansy said. And Pansy to her.

"Would you look at that infallible Weasley and his load of children?" Draco had to get along with Harry, but there was no excuse to hold back his snide remarks with Ron. Or Hermione. He continued, "To think Granger was Head Girl of Hogwarts. Now look at her, with her litter of children. I always thought she would do more for herself than mate like a hamster with Weasley."

Lucy cleared her throat," Dad, she's a Weasley now, not a Granger. And she's written more books in her age than Mr. Weasley has won Quidditch championships. Which I must add, Mr. Weasley is an excellent Chudley Cannons Keeper. Mrs. Weasley has even written a series of books for the Muggle world. So, just lay off them dad. Besides, I think that if you love someone as much as they do then there's nothing wrong with having six children. It's beautiful."

"Seven," Draco corrected. "She's pregnant again."

Pansy stole a glance. "It's amazing how Hermione stayed so fit."

"She's an Auror, too." Lucy smiled.

"Well, she's going to have to retire now. I work at the Ministry and I know for a fact that you can't be an Auror with seven children."

Lucy decided to leave this comment alone and waved at her friends. A group of sixth year Slytherins.

Harry, Drake, and Jamie made their way back over to Draco and Pansy.

"Well son, this is it. I want you to knock them all out at Hogwarts. Like I know you will. Good luck and steer close to your older sister, she will be able to help you along the way. Right, Lucy?"

Draco smiled at his oldest and turned back to Drake. Harry nodded his head.

"Go ahead; tell your brother sayonara."

Lucy gave Pansy and Draco small hugs.

Harry turned to Draco smiling.

"It's good that everyone put their differences aside. We can all live like normal wizards again."

"Yes, I know. I never thought I'd see the day of Potter and me having a decent conversation. It's great to be alive to shake hands."

Draco held out his hand and Harry grabbed it quickly before he knew it. They had never shaken hands. They never once thought about shaking hands. But since they both had something in common, they might as well get along.

"All right Drake, off you get. Lucy, watch over him, okay?"

Drake waved as he stepped on the steps," I'll owl both of you." He said this to Harry and Draco.

Pansy leaned close to Draco and said," There's something I really need to tell you. Something about Lucy."

Draco nodded his head.

Jude was feeling a bit left out, so he tugged at Pansy's robes. Pansy then picked him up.

"I'd like to wave good bye to Lucy. It will be a while before I see her again." Pansy obviously thought this was endearing, because she handed him to Draco.

"Can you hold him, so he can wave to Lucy?"

"Well, why can't you? You've been holding him all day."

"Draco, I only held him briefly. Besides, isn't it obvious?"

"Is what obvious?"

Pansy rolled her eyes and put her hands on her hips," have you noticed how my appetite has changed?"

Draco shook his head and Jude nodded his.

"Well, fine then. I just want to warn you that today, you'll be getting a lot of surprising news today. For starters, I'm pregnant."

Draco's mouth dropped. " Jude, I think I may have to set you down. You're a big boy and you can walk as well as anyone I know." Draco almost dropped Jude.

He turned to Pansy horror-struck and pale. Pansy hated to admit that he didn't look so appealing now.

"Oh, by the way," Pansy continued on with her shocking news. She was highly amused by Draco's look utter shock.

"Pansy is dating someone that she thought we'd be ashamed of. She met him in detention."

Draco had to find something to lean on. His daughter was meeting wild and rambunctious boys in detention, no less.

"And his name is Broch..."

"Say no more," Draco whispered. He knew where the rest of this was headed.

He turned to the train leaving the platform and saw his daughter waving.

Pansy kissed him on the cheek," So, what do you think? Think the house elves can spare one more Malfoy?"
