"Hmm... it's so beautiful!" Hermione sighed happily. "October is my favourite month... I love the vivid colours, the scent of the wet soil after a rain, the sound of the autumn wind..." she leaned closer to her husband's warm embrace.
They went for a lovely walk every October afternoon or night around the forest of the Manor.
"In the next year's October, when we will go for a walk... I want a little one, whom we can push in front of us in the stroller..." Draco said unexpectedly, and he blushed a little too, when he realised his sudden statement's meaning...
They stopped abruptly and she looked up at her husband.
"You want to start a family with me?"
His silvery eyes met with her warm brown ones and he pulled closer his wife to himself. His fingers brushed away a curly hazelbrown lock from her shoulder and pulled together the beige fabric coat on her, that she won't catch a cold.
"Yes, I want a little bundle of joy with you..." he said honestly. "A little curly brown haired girl or a blonde small boy."
Her heart skipped a beat and blushed a little, but her eyes shone brightly.
"I want to walk with you, when the next autumn's leaves will fall around us to the soft, wet ground. I want to push our little one in the stroller, warmly tucked into a soft blanket, while the autumn wind plays with the baby's curly locks and makes her or his face a bit rosy."
"It's a beautiful wish... I would like that too!" she whispered after a few silent moments later and tiptoed to kiss her husband. His lips always gave her a comforting feeling. She felt safe and loved. "It's getting dark. Let's go home!" She smiled at him and they walked back to the Manor arm-in-arm.

Later that night, after they made love, Hermione was already fast asleep and cuddled to her husband's warm, naked body. The fireplace radiated cozy warmness and the sound of the autumn raindrops on the windowglass, sounded like a sweet lullaby. Draco kissed his sleeping wife's forehead smiling, then stroked his palm onto her soft belly and knew exactly, that in the next Fall, they will be one more, than the two of them.
