Hermione smiled as she saw the test results, the ministry had obliged Barbara and her to do a pregnancy test due to the stupid law protecting veelas. Her test was a more than positive negative.
She loved that about the wizard world, many of the test that would only have some accuracy in the muggle world, had one hundred percent accuracy, she was free to proclaim that she didn't have to marry the stupid veela that marked her. She heard her cell ring.
After the war, the three teens that saved the world begged the principal of the time to allow some muggle devices in Hogwarts, cell phones were one of them, they only worked between classes and after them, so it didn't cause much disturbance. She saw that it was a text from Barbara.
Hermione opened her cell fast, she really wanted to know about Barbara results.
You won't believe it! I'm not pregnant!
This calls for celebration! Get the ice cream, I'll get the movies!
Hermione squealed and rushed to the kitchens, which was still a long way from her common room, because her damn kitchenette wasn't being fulfilled with ice cream.
Second Head's common room, eight hours later
Barbara sighed as she let herself sink in the magically filled bathtub, she loved to take these baths, but it was a rare occurrence due to her school schedule plus head girl's responsibilities, she loved water, especially if that water was in a bathtub or a pool.
The bathtub she was in could certainly contain three or four people and still contain enough space so that they wouldn't have to be on top of each others.
Her muscles relaxed and she dipped even lower on the hot water, she loved Saturday nights as it was when she would have her weekly hot bathtub bath.
Nothing could upset her when she was in here, not a single person, and as her muscles relaxed even more she opened her eyes, her eyes weren't showing the normal black circle in the middle, indeed, they were all green.
Daniel breathed hard as he felt Barbara's smell all over the common room, and he cursed him from being stupid enough to come to their common room on a Saturday night before ten or eleven o'clock, he had forgot that she took her weekly bathtub baths before dressing in her pajamas and then she would sit by the fire reading, it was almost as worse as it was now.
But in this precise moment her smell was everywhere inciting him to make her his one more time, to taste her, to feel her soft skin and to hear her scream his name as he fused with her, making them one.
Only thinking about that brought arousal to him, he needed her more than anything and when he heard his name being whispered, he thought he had heard it wrong, Barbara wouldn't even dream of calling him by the first name. But his veela part obliged his feet to move, he walked fearfully and partially hopefully to their adjoined bathroom door, he stared at the opening door in fear, but no girl behind it, instead he saw Barbara's back, more accurately, only her neck and the back of her head.
"Don't you want to join me?" Daniel gulped as he heard the desire in her voice, he was worried, the Barbara she knew wouldn't consider to let him join her in that bathtub willingly "What are you waiting for, Daniel?"
As his name left his lips, he didn't hesitate; he undressed himself and entered the bathtub only to see the pupil less eyes of his mate before she crawled to him and all his rational thoughts simply disappeared.
Hermione's room
Hermione giggled as she read a comical part in the romance novel she was reading, she loved to do this, reading before sleeping always seemed to get her mood high and also helped her sleep a lot better, and if it wasn't for knowing that she had been marked, she would have slept better since the dance, but no, her ten hours of sleep had been drastically changed to seven hours and it made her kinda cranky, nothing could make her upset now, she wasn't pregnant and tomorrow was the start of the winter holidays, it would be great to see her family again, plus Christmas was to be held in Barbara's place this year.
She had to give in and say that she was going to miss Hogwarts a lot, even if it was for only three weeks, she was going to miss it, and her room too.
She sighed happily and laid down, she continued to read until she fell asleep, using the novel for teddy bear.
