*Harry and Hermione had been together since 6th year when Harry killed Voldemort once and for all.*

With only one week left until the end of term at Hogwarts, everyone was either getting ready for Graduation or staying outside in the beautiful weather. But Hermione chose to stay inside. Particularly in her room where no one could get to her. Not even Harry. She felt awful about keeping such a huge secret from him, especially on account of it was his fault but she just couldn't bring herself to telling him and adding that extra burden on his shoulders. After all, she really didn't think he was ready or even wanted a baby. She decided to live in Muggle London away from Harry and Ron. She wanted her baby to have a father or at least know him, especially because he was the most famous wizard alive at the time but she was scared that he would disown her and their child. She didn't want or need such heartbreak in her life at that time. Harry didn't need to be tied down by them. He was planning on playing for a new Quidditch team called 'Nitros' which Oliver Wood was captain. Harry just had to show up in order to become the teams new seeker.

It was the day of graduation and everyone was nervous and excited all at the same time. But Hermione felt sick. She threw up again this morning as she has been for the past few weeks ever since she found out she was pregnant. She came out of her room and saw Harry standing there with flowers in his hand smiling.

"Good Morning Herms," he said giving her a kiss on the cheek, "I can't believe this is it! We are going to be leaving Hogwarts forever. Oh, and these my dear are for you" he added giving Hermione the flowers.

"Oh thank you Harry, they are so beautiful." She said with a smile. She had to do it now. This was it. She had to break his heart, there was no other way. "Err..Harry..can I talk to you alone for a moment?"

"Umm sure Hermione." Harry had a bad feeling about what she was about to say but he followed her with a smile anyway.

"Harry, I dont want to say this or do this, but I have to. There is no other way. I love you more then life itself and you know that, but since I love you so much I have to let you go. I can't let you suffer with me. You have so much to offer and have such a great life ahead of you and I will only hold you back and I dont want that Harry, no, not at all. I want you to be happy forever. And I feel that without me in your life you can acheive that." She had tears in her eyes now and just looked up at Harry who looked surprised that she had such a speech to tell him.

"No, Herms, you are the reason that I am happy. You arent holding me back from anything. I love you and you are my everything. I cant lose you." He said as he reached out and took her hand.

"Harry, please, if you really love me you will understand and let me go."

"Herms, thats the thing, I love you too much to let you go."

"Look Harry, I have been thinking about this for awhile now and its just the right thing to do. Im so sorry Harry I really am." Hermione stood up and gave Harry a kiss on the cheek. And with that Hermione stood up and left her room leaving Harry sitting there just thinking about everything she said. He had lost the love of his life but he would honor her wishes and not chase after her anymore. She had made her decision and there was nothing he could do to change it. But he knew that no matter what he would love her forever and no one could or would take her place in Harry's heart.

After Graduation that day Hermione left the wizarding world for good hoping never to return. But she knew that she would have to one day. One day in eleven years when her child would be attending Hogwarts, she sill had no idea what she was going to do. So she went back home to live with her parents. She didnt know if they would greet her with open arms since she was pregnant but she figured it was worth the try anyway.

When she got there she explained everything to them about what had happened and how her life would change forever. Her parents knew that Harry loved her very much and didnt do anything to hurt her. They understood why Hermione did what she did and supported her. She was home. Safe again. Her parents were going to be there for her and help her. For that, she was grateful.
