Recently divorced Hermione Granger needed a fresh start. Away from all the tabloids, paparazzi, and some space to come to terms with the possibility she may never have children.
In efforts to cope with lost possibilities and broken promises, she fin...
Scorpius grinned before running over to hug Hermione's leg before she squatted down to give him a proper hug. Draco watched on, the scene in front of him melted his heart.
The man cleared his throat before getting up from the loveseat, "Let's go home, I still haven't gotten dinner started yet."
"Oh actually," Hermione looked over at him, "I was wondering if you both would like to come over to my house this time for dinner. I'm not much of a cook, but I was thinking we can order some pizza, build a fort out of pillows, and have ourselves a a fun movie night!"
"YES! Please? Oh please dad, can we please go over to Mum 'Mione's? Pleeeeeease?" Scorpius pulled out his infamous puppy dog eyes and pleaded, having made his way over to his father, and hugged his left leg.
Before Draco could say anything, Hermione followed suit, "Oh pretty please? Please Draco, come over! We'll have so much fun! I'll even order extra pepperoni for youuu!"
The man shot playful daggers at her as she hugged his right arm. He grumbled before giving her a quick kiss on the forehead and ruffled his son's hair, "Fiiine...I swear you both will be the death of me."
"Yeah!" Hermione and Scorpius punched the air and fist bumped each other.

(A.N./ This is what their pillow fort looks like, but instead of Netflix it would be Disney's Beauty & the Beast)

"Mum 'Mione?" Scorpius asked after finishing his last bite of pizza.
Hermione quickly wiped away a few stray crumbs on his face and magically levitated his plate to the kitchen before it began washing and drying itself, "Yes darling, what is it?"
He leaned back on a pillow and yawned, "Can you be Mrs. Pots and I be Chip next Halloween?"
Hermione chuckled and kissed the boy's forehead, "Of course sweetie, regardless of whether or not your father and I work out by then, I'll still do that with you."
He smiled as he began to curl up onto a pillow with Hermione gently combing her fingers through his soft platinum hair. Within minutes the little boy had already fallen asleep while 'Beauty & the Beast' continued to play on the tv.
"Hey," Draco whispered from outside the pillow fort, "Is he fast asleep?"
She slowly got up from her comfortable position beside Scorpius and crawled out of the fort to stand in front of him, whispering back, "Yeah, the little one's out like a light. He looks so cute while he sleeps!"
"Can we go talk somewhere private?" He asked. She nodded her head and gestured for him to follow her, and led him to a room that most certainly was her own personal library.
(A.N./ I've begun to feel too lazy with descriptions lately, hehe. Here's what the home library looks like)

Draco whistled, "Nice library you got in here. I'm a bit surprised the rest of the house doesn't look like his."
Hermione chuckled as she took her place beside Draco, leaning against a couch cushion, "I don't have that many personal books...so what is it that you wanted to talk about?"
"I was hoping we could spend some more time together. Just getting to know each other." He took her hand in his, causing a blush to creep on her face, and causing him to smile.
"I must admit," she began, interlocking their fingers, "we've only been dating for a week now, but I have been wanting to be alone with you every now and then. I don't think we've had that since our first date at your backyard..."
He tucked a stray hair of hers behind her ear, cupping her face before planting a kissing on her forehead, and causing her to blush further, "I'm sorry about that, I hope I can make it up to you."
"And how would you do that?" She looked up at him through her eyelashes.
A small smirk grew on his face as he brushed his thumb across her bottom lip and she leaned closer to his touch, "I was thinking of kissing you, but I wanted to ask for your permission first."
Without another word, she slowly began to lean forward and capture his lips with hers.
The kiss started off with languid exploratory movements before he pulled her closer by the waist. A flame began to ignite between them as the kiss began to progress passionately with her hands in his hair, and his arms engulfing her. He licked her bottom lip, asking for permission, before she opened her mouth slightly, allowing him to deepen the kiss.
The next thing they knew, she begun to straddle his waist, and his hands trailed down her body all the way to her ass, and then feeling her up. They moaned into each others mouths before Draco pulled back slightly, placing his hands on her hips respectfully once more.
"We should slow down a bit," he chuckled, leaning his forehead against hers.
She bit her lip, "Yeah we should..."
"I want to get this right...I want you and me to have something deep and meaningful, but if you keep looking at me like that, I don't know how much longer I'll be able to control myself." He whispered as he cupped her face in hand, his mouth lingering closely to hers.
She pulled back a little, memorizing the lines of his face, "Thank you for being careful of me."
Before he could say another word, she leaned in once more to place one last gentle kiss upon his lips.
