Summery: At the start of the Seventh Year term, the student's of all four houses have noticed a new class on their timetables. At first glance the Golden Trio of Gryffindor shrug the class off as a new muggle studies class, but upon their first lesson they realize that a giant pressure and responsibility were about to be placed on them with the fact that their all about to be parents. Read and enjoy as the Seventh Year population of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry face the joy's and upsets of becoming teen parent's.

Life Skills
Preface
Dark, chocolate brown eye's searched the Great Hall slowly, searching for a flash of silvery blond hair, that would signal the arrival of her partner. Taking a few step's in she heard behind her, the soft, yet commanding voice call her name:
"Granger?"
Turning slowly she took in the appearance Draco Malfoy, and involuntarily hugged the fluffy, gold encased, pillow closer to her protruding mid-drift. He was dressed in his customary black robes, with his Slytherin green and silver tie peeking at the opening at the top. Her eye's were full of anticipation, while his held slight agitation. It was ridiculous, even after all these weeks, to still not have gotten used to the idea, that what was happening, really happening.
Coming toward her, he gripped her upper arm and lead her amidst her fellow classmates, and their significant others. It was strange, seeing her classmates like this. All of the seventh year girls were supporting large protruding bellies that shouted to anyone that saw them that they were with child. After several moments, Malfoy stopped, having found a space in the great hall to which they could sit, stretch out, and await the arrival of their Lamaze instructor.
Beside them sat Hannah Abbot, and her partner Seamus Finnagan. Seamus had taken up residence behind Hannah, creating a cradle for her to lean back against with his legs'. They sat quietly, with Seamus gently rubbing her middle. Smiling Hermione began a small conversation with Hannah, while Draco pulled the pillow from her arms, and began making a place for her, similar to that of their neighbors.
When he was ready Draco tilted his head toward Hermione, and she slowly lowered herself, still chatting with Hannah about the ups and downs of pregnancy, and their feelings of anticipation, fear, and anxiety about how they would manage everything that was going to be required of them this semester.. With one hand resting on her swollen middle, back leaning against the one person she never thought she'd ever even have to much of a conversation with, let alone have a child with, amongst her fellow classmates who were also expecting, Hermione's mind began to wander back to exactly how this had come to happen.
END
(A/N: Now I know this was incredibly short, and don't worry, all other chapter's will be longer. Because of the length of this one however I will be posting the First Real Chapter with it. I hope everyone enjoys and Reviews! Until next Chapter!)
