Welcome to Or Maybe It Will... hope you enjoy this story as much as I hope to enjoy writing it.

Chapter one: Pregnant pause.

---

"...Pregnant," Hermione looked at hands as she clasped them together waiting for Draco's response.

Draco pushed himself away from the table and stood behind Hermione. Wrapping his arms around her, he kissed the top of her head before debating on what to say.

"You don't have to say anything." Hermione sighed. "I already know you don't want the baby."

Hermione stood up and left Draco standing alone in their kitchen.

He heard the front door open and close.

Ryan shimmied into the kitchen, dancing to the music blasting from his Ipod. He washed his hands and grabbed the carton of orange juice off the table and shook it and frowned. Looking up he finally noticed Draco Standing there watching him. The young red head removed his headphones.

"Somethin' wrong dad?"

Draco didn't respond not trusting his voice he shook his head and left the confused kid to fend for himself. Walking out he grabbed his car keys. It was time to visit his best friends. The only ones who had always been there for him.

Blaise sat next to Pansy as the two watched their friend pace in Pansy's living room.

"what am I going to do. I hate children." Draco said finally.

"Sit down and relax," Pansy told him gently.

Draco sighed and sat down in the comfortable arm chair across from them.

" You'll love the child Draco, you just need time to think about things." Blaise said.

"Your biggest mistake was letting her walk out of the kitchen," Pansy began.

"And the fact that he didn't correct her when she told him he didn't want it wasn't worse than that?" Blaise asked her rhetorically.

"But I don't," Draco commented silently but loud enough for the two to hear.

"Guess who's starting to sound like their father..." Pansy mumbled.

"Not now," Blaise said cutting off Draco's angry remark.

"I don't know what to do," He said simply.

"You first need to make sure you don't reject Hermione," She told him.

"Or the baby." Blaise added.

At the reference Draco paled and ran into the nearby restroom. The juice from earlier going down the toilet with what felt like could have been his stomach.

Blaise and Pansy looked at each other from the doorway. Blaise entered the bathroom and pulled a fresh wash cloth out of the towel cabinet he wet it with cold water and placed it over the back of Draco's neck while Pansy held his hair.

"It'll be alright Mate, Just calm down." Pansy whispered.

"Hello love," Miles greeted his daughter as she walked into his study. He took in her frame and removed his glasses before standing and wrapping his arms around the young woman.

Hermione suddenly cried her heart out onto his shirt. Hard muffled sobs shook her, and it seemed despair seeped from the core of her being as she stood there with her father.

--

Ryan frowned.

"Where the hell are my parents!" He asked torpid.

He grimaced. Memories of the fire flashing from somewhere deep inside his subconscious mind.

"How could I forget," He told tepid. "They're dead."

"Harry?" Ginny called opening the front door to their home.

She wobbled inside carrying grocery bags.

"Gin. You should have left those in the car for me." Harry bound quickly down the stairs. Taking the bags from Ginny, he kissed her lightly.

"I know." Ginny smiled and waddled into the kitchen to help put them away. "I went by The Malfoy's and no one was home."

"Mr. and Mrs. had doctor appointments and Ryan had community service.

"I spoke to Hermione on the way home," Gin replied.

Harry looked over his shoulder at his wife as he heard her tone of voice change slightly.

"Everything alright?" He asked.

Ginny shrugged. " I don't know, but for some reason I fear the worst."

"Can those two ever get a break?" Harry sighed.

"Can you believe it's almost Christmas," Timothy asked Ron, who had he busied himself reading a sports magazine.

"Yeah." He grumbled. Putting down his reading material to focus all his attention on his lover. " Means I have to see my family,"

"Don't sound so down," Tim told him. "Grab them something out of the store and wah la. Perfect gift and I'll even wrap it for you."

"You'll have to help me find something for our women." Ron reminded.

"Oh yes." Tim agreed. "And the young one soon to be."

Ron smiled sheepishly at Tim.

"I can't wait for the baby to come, Gin will be such an amazing mother."

Narcissia silently sipped her tea in a comfortable silence as Severus and Jennifer played chess.

"Just when I thought things couldn't be worse, There's a muggle sitting in my day room." Lucius Malfoy swept through the room of the manor.

"It could be worse," Narcissia retorted. "A weasley."

"I dare you bring one of those filthy animals into my home." Lucius hissed.

Jennifer looked up from her chess game. She tried hard to ignore Lucius's remark.

Severus stood and exited the room Malfoy Sr. Following closely behind him.

" You live to piss her off don't you?" Severus asked as Lucius led them down an empty corridor.

" What else do I have?" Lucius growled. "My son has married the mudblood bitch, who by the way he has been feeling is probably expecting."

"Ah, Every man of the Malfoy line is cursed with taking on the pregnancy symptoms of their child's carrier." Severus remembered back when Narcissia had been expecting. "He doesn't even realize what's happening to him."

"Not to mention. My wife has left me,"

"Completely your fault"

"You are always off with Narcissia or courting that mudblood klutz of yours, Nymphadora." Lucius sighed. "What could be worse?"

"She could be expecting twins." Severus answered.
