A/N: This will probably be quite a long story. I am going to try and keep it real time.
Hermione 23/04/2013
Two pink lines.
Hermione knew what this meant. It meant she was pregnant. She thought back to all the recent times her and Draco had had sex. They hadn't had sex in a month because he was always working, and she hadn't slept with anyone else, so she knew she must be at least a month gone.
She walked through to the bedroom and carrying the pregnancy test with her.
"Draco, I need to talk to you." She shook him awake.
"What?" He mumbled, still half asleep.
"I took a test and it's got two lines."
"What, why are you talking about exams, we finished school 3 years ago."
"No you moron, a pregnancy test. It's positive." She rolled her eyes.
"Oh, um okay." He said before rolling over and mumbling something about being tired.
Hermione walked into the kitchen and flicked the kettle on. She could make a cup of tea instantly with magic, but she never liked using magic for something she could do just as easily the 'muggle way'. She suddenly had a panicky thought and grabbed her ipad off the kitchen counter. It sounded stupid, but in her head it made perfect sense. She googled whether or not she could drink tea. She knew that she was probably just being melodramatic but she wanted to be careful, anything can go wrong. Whilst she was searching, she also looked at general things she couldn't do/eat. She didn't realise there was so many things she couldn't eat now. Sushi, mr whippy ice cream, raw eggs, amongst other things. This is going to be hard work.
She drank her cup of tea and got ready for work. She really didn't want to go in today, but she decided she better, it was only a temporary position and her contract runs out next week.
Work was seemed to last forever, and she just wanted to get home. She was worried as she didn't have time to call the doctors. It was her day off tomorrow so she would do it then.
On her way home she picked up another pregnancy test just to be sure. But this time she brought one that told her how far along she is. She walked home a little too quickly and ran into the bathroom. She tore open the thin blue packet and followed the instructions on the box. A little egg timer symbol appeared in the corner of the test. It felt like hours before it stopped flashing and the words appeared.
Pregnant
3+
She read what the number meant on the side of the packet. It meant that it had been 3 or more weeks since conception, it also said that a doctor would date that as 5 or more weeks. She sighed. This was useless. It basically told her she could be anything from a month onwards pregnant. She would just have to wait for the doctor's appointment to know for sure.
She wanted Draco to be home from work now; she just wanted to snuggle up to him on the sofa. She really needed to talk to him. Hermione had decided she wanted to do this pregnancy the muggle way. No magic involved. She knew it was going to be hard to convince him. His prejudices had changed, but he was still set in his magical ways. Hermione placed the test on top of the bathroom cupboard ready to show Draco when he was home. It seemed weird, but she wanted to show him it as proof. She knew he would believe her anyway but just to be sure, they were there.
A few hours later, Draco walked through the door, and chucked his work bag down on the floor.
"Ugh work was so stressful, I cant deal with all these long nights." He moaned.
"Well you're gonna have to get used to long nights when the baby gets here." She replied quietly.
"What?! You mean you actually said that this morning?" He almost shouted.
"What do you mean?" Hermione said back to him, confused.
"I thought I was dreaming this morning! I was still half asleep! You mean I'm going to be a daddy?" Draco smiled brightly down at Hermione and kissed her head.
She grabbed his hand and walked him to the bathroom. After reaching up and grabbing both of the tests off the cupboard, she passed them to him. He dropped them and threw his arms around her.
"Wow." He muttered. "I'm going to be a daddy."
Hermione smiled up at him and loosened his grip slightly. She was excited to, but was absolutely terrified of anything happening. Although this was the preferred response she wanted from Draco. If only he had been properly awake earlier. She wouldn't have felt so down at work all day, thinking that he didn't care.
"How am I going to tell my parents?" She suddenly thought. "They are going to kill me."
"They love you Hermione, I'm sure they'll be fine eventually. We're young, but we will be amazing parents, I can promise you that."
She smiled again and headed out of the bathroom. They both laid on the sofa and spoke about the events of the day. Draco had had an uneventful day at work, they had no leads on the latest crime wave and they didn't know where else to look. As into Dracos story as she was, she kept fidgeting, she couldn't get comfortable at all. She could tell this was going to be a difficult 9 months.
A/N: Please review etc, I know its boring at the minute but obviously the interesting stuff will come up soon :)
