The three girls sat in the Slytherin common room. All chatting away and laughing.

Draco was at Quidditch practice and so were many of the other boys. So they had a much deserved peaceful evening. Then they all went their separate ways. Ginny and Pansy going down to the Great Hall to eat the evening feast. And Hermione going to inform Madam Pomfrey about her pregnancy so she could get regular check ups. Hermione guessed that Pansy and Ginny would split once down at the Great Hall. Pansy going to the Slytherin table and Ginny to the Gryiffindor one.

Right then. Here goes nothing! Hermione thought bravely. She could be expelled. But she had to at least get a check up. It had been five or more months since her last one which confirmed her pregnancy.

"Madam Pomfrey?" Hermione asked. The nurse looked up at the pale, sickly looking, girl. "Well, um. Last y-year, I slept with Draco Malfoy. And in result of that, I am not pregnant....."

Madam Pomfrey stood up. "Miss Granger, I'll have you checked up immediately. Go lie on that bed" Pomfrey pointed her finger towards a bed by the large window. Hermione nervously sat on the bed.

This is it. She thought.

Hermione arrived back at the Gryiffindor common room with everything up to date. Her baby was healthy and she was starting to slowly show.

"Mione, this is great!" Ginny squealed, embracing her bushy haired friend. "What's great?" A male voice asked.

Both girls turned.

Harry.

"Ummmm" Hermione was running thin on her lies.

Ginny couldn't help herself. Her mouth ran faster than a muggle from magic.

"Hermione's pregnant!!" As soon as the words surfaced, Ginny slapped a hand to her mouth. The Weasley girl was disappointed in herself. "What??" A gasp came from behind. The two girls and Harry turned. "Ron!" Hermione cried. "What do you mean she's pregnant?!" Ron shoved past Harry. "With whom?! Was it you Harry?!" Ron spun around to face Harry. The red headed boy grew redder in the face by the second. "No! I swear!" Harry defended himself. Harry was slightly shocked that Ron would let himself believe that he would get their bookworm friend pregnant. "This is the first I'm hearing of it" Harry added.
"Who's is it then , 'Mione?!" Ron demanded. Just as Ron had demanded, in walked Dean, Neville, Padma and Parviti , Lavender ,Neville and Seamus.
"Oh Merlin" Hermione groaned.
"What's going on?" Questioned Neville. Soon everyone was eager to know what was going on.
"I'm pregnant! Alright! The father is Draco Malfoy and I'm as scared as you all are so please don't make it any worse than it already is!" Hermione yelled. A river of tears ran down her angelic face.
Harry walked up to his distressed friend. He let his hands frame her face. "Hermione, I'm very annoyed that Malfoy did this to you, but just know; no matter what, we're all here for you. You could never disappoint us." Harry spoke with deep kindness.

Hermione smiled as Haarry wiped the tears off of her checks. It was Ron's turn for some words of encouragement.

"Look 'Mione, I'm sorry for breaking you're heart. But if Malfoy breaks it even more, I'll break his jaw. You're like my sister; that's probably why it didn't work with us. It was like dating a beautiful Ginny to be honest-" he was cut off when Ginny opened her mouth to object but Harry quickly closed it. "I'm proud of you no matter the account. I just want you to be happy." Ron smiled a heart warming smile that made Hermione's heart melt. Lavender approached her. Unexpectedly she grabbed Hermione into a tight embrace. "Hermione, you are a role model. Im so sorry for stealing you're boyfriend." Lavender said.

Hermione forgave her. She was much happier with Draco.

The next morning, as Draco walked to the Great Hall, he heard whispers all around him.

"He slept with Granger."

"He knocked up Hermione Granger"

"Eh, did you hear he got Hermione Granger pregnant?"

"Yeah, he's family ought to be ashamed. At eighteen! Also to a mudblood. Ohhh that'll settle well with his father"

Draco ignored all the vicious comments. He didn't need more hassling. Especially not from his own house mates.

Fellow Slytherin, Marcus Flint, approached him. "So is it true then? Granger's pregnant and it's yours?"

Draco wasn't afraid nor ashamed.

"Yes. Yes she is and yes it is" he replied calmly before quickening his pace.
