Chapter 16: Unknown Answer Found & Every Fairy Tale Ending
3 weeks later…
Ginny was sitting in the study room in the evening, reading the book from Draco's side of the library, which she took as she left. She flipped the pages a couple of times and then began to read.
Finally, she found what she needed.
...Legacy of the third day after the moon has set a new image of itself...
When two enemy families, have a son and a daughter, one from each family, that fall in love, the child of that union will be the greatest of the all.
{AN: notice the "romeo&juliet" theme going on?}
A daughter will be conceived through hatred and love.
The child will be much like each of its parents; the mother's stubborn and temper attitude,
but yet the father's sneaky and mischief ways.
The mother's loyalty but yet the very little patience, like the father.
She will have the most beautiful locks of red-ish hair with lips red as a rose, with a pale complexion like her father's.
Not only will she have the looks but she'll have the brains too. She'll be the top one in her class, not only book smart but common sense wise with a lot of wisdom to boot.
She will be able to speak four languages:
Latin, French, German, and English,
All in order as mentioned.
She has the heart of a lion but the mind of a Slytherin.
Ginny looked up from finishing reading the passage and looked out into the room.
She now knew the answer to their question about Lizzie. It was out of pure love between two feuding families. Families that couldn't except each other until their youngest met and fell in love secretly.
Their.
Ginny thought of Draco.
I miss him, Ginny thought.
Ginny then took the blocking charm off of them and their surroundings.
As if on cue, only after 2 minutes after she undid the charm, Draco showed up right in front of her.
"What the hell were you thinking Virginia Elizabeth Weasley Malfoy?" Draco said, angrily as he entered into her home away from home, or rather the place where she was. He didn't know the name of the place.
"First of all, don't you ever again, call me by my full name. Only my father did that. It was his right and only his. Second of all, I was thinking straight, you were the one acting like a crazy man and reverting to when we first met in the office, except about a thousand times worse. Third, don't you ever swear at me. It's a good thing that Lizzie can't hear our shouting match. And most important of all, I'm not yours to own. And neither is my daughter or my baby. Let me remind you that I don't have to let you anywhere near my daughter or this baby inside of me," Ginny responded back.
"I'll call you whatever I want, Virginia. As I recall, you were just as crazy as I am now and then. Secondly, it's our not my. Our daughter and our baby," Draco said, coming closer to Ginny and pulling her into his arms.
One of his hands touching her stomach as he then continued, "are just as much mine as they are yours. I admit, I do not own you but we are in this marriage together, and together we shall stay."
Draco then moved his hand from her stomach to the back of her back. He pulled her closer and kissed her.
Ginny then melted into his arms. She didn't exactly remember why they had begun to argue like they had 3 weeks ago but all of that didn't matter anymore. To her, everything was well.
All except for the feeling she was getting in her stomach. It was storming outside as they continued to kiss.
Lightning struck right as something happened between her legs.
"Draco?" Ginny said, as she pulled out of the kiss but yet Draco came right back.
"Draco," Ginny said, in the same pattern but yet urgently this time.
"I know, I'm sorry too," Draco quickly said, and then went back to kissing.
"Well I am too but," Ginny said but Draco cut her off by invading her mouth again.
"Draco," Ginny said, sternly and urgently.
"What is it?" Draco asked, finally giving her time to speak before he invaded her mouth once again.
"Our baby is on the way," Ginny said.
"I know Ginny. I've known that for at least 5 or 6 months now," Draco said and then right back to capturing her lips.
"No, our baby is coming," Ginny said, hoping to get through to him.
"I know that Gin, I just said that," Draco said as he again captured her lips spontaneously.
He can't take a hint can he? Ginny thought.
"Oh damn," Ginny said, managing somehow to pull out of his lips.
"Ginny, you just got through telling me not to swear towards you. So why are you doing the same towards me?" Draco asked.
"Draco listen to me," Ginny said looking at him. "Are you listening to me?"
"Yes," Draco said. "I'm listening to you."
"Well, listen up. Our baby is coming. As in, right now, our baby will be joining us sometime between now and tomorrow," Ginny said, hoping that he'd pick up on what she was saying.
I hope it won't last until tomorrow, Ginny thought.
Draco's eyes got bigger at that moment. Apparently, he had gotten the message.
"You mean now?" Draco stuttered.
"Yes now," Ginny said. "Pick up that book and follow me, but don't loose the place in it."
Draco quickly did as she said and followed her out of the room and into another room.
Draco watched as Ginny pulled him in the room and closed the door. She then reached for her wand on the nightstand and said a blocking charm on all of them in the flat. She then cast a silencing spell on the room so they wouldn't wake Lizzie during the night.
"Ginny, what are you doing? Shouldn't you be laying down?" Draco asked, nervously.
"We have time. Read the passage I had you put your finger in," Ginny said as she came and sat on her bed.
Draco watched as she propped her pillows for her to use in the next hours yet to come. He then read.
Five minutes later, Draco looked up from being finished of reading the passage, to see Ginny gripping the sheets of the bed, as she sat there in pain.
Draco rushed to her and took her hand.
"Easy Gin," Draco said. "Just breathe and try to relax."
"Easy for you to say. You're not the one in labor here," Ginny snarled in pain towards him.
"Point taken," Draco said as Ginny squeezed his hand.
It was a good thing Ginny had cast the silencing spell, because otherwise they wouldn't be the only ones up at about 2 in the morning.
"That's it Gin. Just a little bit further now," Draco said as Ginny continued to push.
Ginny screamed and squealed a couple more times before it was all over.
"Ok, Gin one more and it'll be over," Draco said.
In the next few minutes, a baby boy came into Draco's hands as Ginny pushed with her energy that she had left.
"It's a boy Gin," Draco said, almost crying.
"I had a feeling it would be," Ginny said, as she collapsed back towards the soft pillows that engulfed her from behind her head.

1 week and 4 days later…
Ginny woke up in their bed in their vacation home. She looked out from where she lay. She saw her newly son, who had been born at exactly 3 am that morning on April 3rd, in his new crib. Draco was asleep right beside her.
"Morning sweetheart," Draco said to Ginny.
After Ginny had gone to sleep the early morning that their son was born, Draco began to move things from that place to their vacation home. He took Ginny to their bed in the new place and then quickly went back for their son and brought him back to his mother.
"Morning," Ginny said back.
~*~
The weather was a little stormy but yet peaceful as the sun set off towards the horizon, as she sat out on the balcony of their vacation home. The waves of the ocean were a little rough but yet not violent either.
The little over a week old baby began to cry. Ginny turned her attention towards the baby and soothed him.
Ginny then saw Draco coming in with Lizzie following close behind.
"Daddy, why does Mummy have another baby in her arms?" Lizzie asked settling in Draco's lap, who had sat down in the chair next to Ginny and the baby.
Lizzie looked very comfortable in her father's arms.
Draco kissed her forehead and said, "Lizzie that's your new brother. His name is Adrian Alan Malfoy."
"This is a wonderful birthday, Daddy," Lizzie said.
"Yes it is," Draco said. "You're now exactly seven years old."
"Yay!" Lizzie exclaimed.
"Lizzie, not so loud sweetie," Ginny said, softly.
"Yes Mummy," Lizzie said.
A few minutes passed.
"Daddy?" Lizzie asked.
"Yes?" Draco answered.
"I love you," Lizzie said.
THE END!!!
