Chapter 4

The next morning, I awoke to the annoying sound of my alarm clock, it was finally March. I got dressed in my school robes and pulled my frizzy, brown hair back into a ponytail. Before even going to the Great Hall for breakfast, I headed to the hospital wing to see if Madame Pomfrey had the results of my tests. There was a large knot in my stomach as a walked down the hallway that led to the door that would reveal my fate.

"Madame Pomfrey?" I asked in a small, squeaky voice.

"Oh," she came out from behind her desk, "hello Hermione. I assume that you're here for the results of your tests?" I simply nodded, "yes well," she paused momentarily, "I'm sorry to say, but you are indeed pregnant."

My knees weakened, my mouth dried, everything went blurry. I reached for a close chair; luckily, Madame Pomfrey conjured one up before I fell to the ground. "Are you completely sure? I mean there's no way that there could've been an error somewhere?"

"I'm completely sure dear," she said with a sad look in her eyes, "I was sure to double-check everything," she winced and continued on, "I will make sure that no teachers or students will be able to find out about this. Is there anyone that you've told?"

"O-only Ginny Weasley, but I trust her with anything; I mean she is my best friend."

"Okay," she scribbled something down on a piece of paper. "Okay, now you have to options available to you for today: you can either stay here in the hospital wing for the day, just to let everything sink in, or you can go back to class like any other normal school day."

"I think that I should just go back to class, if I didn't show up for my classes today, then people would start talking and gossiping about why I wasn't there so…" I said, keeping my eyes locked on the floor.

"Okay, well, hurry along then. We don't want you to be late to class do we?" she smiled gently. "Wait one second though," she conjured up some prenatal vitamins and other types of vitamins for early to mid-pregnancies, "take these with you, the instructions are on the side of the bottle. Run along now."

"Thanks," I said and left the room and headed to a long day of schoolwork and the man that was the father of my child…this was going to be a long day.
