Chapter 9

Hermione sat on the cold table in an exam room at St. Mungos. She was waiting for a healer to give her her test results. She couldn't be, she just couldn't. The only person she recently was with was, she only groaned.

The door opened and a cheery red-headed healer came in.

"Hello, Ms Granger" the healer said.

"I'm Healer Notty" she said.

"Now your test results came out fine, but congratulations are in order" she said happily.

Oh no, Hermione thought.

"You're pregnant!" the healer squeeled. Hermione gave a weak smile.

"Here is a percripion for your prenatal potions, and the next appointment with Healer Grey in the Maternity Ward." said Healer Notty.

"You are all set to go, have a nice day" The healer said and left,

Hermione felt numb. How was she going to tell Draco and Leanna, Draco was engaged to be married. It would be horrible if word got out that he got another witch pregnant.

Hermione walked to the waiting room, only to see her daughter waiting.

"Where's your father?" she asked Leanna.

"Oh he got an owl, from his attorney, he had to finalize some paperwork regarding Astoria" she replied.

"Oh" Hermione said as she sat down next to her daughter.

"The wedding's off, he saw her yell at me and hit me" Leanna said quietly.

"She hit you?" exclaimed Hermione.

"Mum, calm down, it's ok father and grandmother are handling it" she said.

Hermione took a few deep breaths.

"Mum, did the healers say what was wrong?" Leanna asked.

"Uh- yes, I have to go to Diagon Alley to get some potions." Hermione replied.

"Will they make you feel better? When will the illness go away?" Leanna asked.

"Yes they will make me feel better, but it's not an illness" Hermione said.

"I don't understand, mum" Leanna said

"Leanna, I'm pregnant" Hermione sighed.

"What?" Four voices replied. Hermione turned her head to see surprisingly Harry and Ginny, and you guessed it, Draco.

Leanna, James and Lily were sent outside while the grown up talked. Ginny had locked the door and put up a silencing charm.

"Wonder what they're talking about" James stated out loud. His messy black hair slightly covered his green eyes as he started at his house

"My mum's going to have a baby" Leanna said quietly.

"Really? You're going to be a big sister?" Asked an excited Lily. Her dark red hair shone in the sunlight and her green eyes sparkled at the thought of a baby on the way.

"Yeah, I guess so" Replied Leanna

"Is Viktor, the father?" asked James.

"I'm not entirely sure, I wouldn't even know if they were doing that" Leanna grimaced.

"I'm sure your mum will tell you eventually" said James, as he turned and walked away.

"Yeah" Sighed Leanna as she followed Lily and James to the treehouse out in the backyard.

The four adults were sitting at the kitchen table at The Potter Residence. No one knew what to say. They all knew Hermione and Ginny were both expecting.

"So, Mione, whats on your mind?" asked Harry.

Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Keep the baby, naturally." she said.

"When are you due?" asked Ginny.

"End of April" she said.

Draco's face was as still as stone. So many thoughts were going through his head. He thought, after things had settled down, that they could try being a real family. But, now, it didn't seem possible.

"When are you going to let, Viktor know?" Harry asked cautiously.

"He's not the father, Harry" Hermione replied softly. " I didn't sleep with him our entire courtship" she said.

Draco's head shot up.

"But that means that-" Ginny began.

"Yes" Hermione said as her eyes began to water.

Arms wrapped around her, neither Ginny's or Harry's. The two watched in silence at what unfloded in front of them.

"Do you mean to tell me, that night, we-" Draco softly began.

Hermione only nodded and started to cry into his chest.

"Oh, Hermione please don't be upset, it's not good for the baby" Draco said wrapping her in his arm while the other ran caressed her head.

"But y-you m-must hate m-me" she sobbed.

"Hermione, yes we've had our ups and downs, and yes before we fought like cats and dogs, but we we so young then, maybe the decison we made was wrong, but I've never hated you" he said in a soothing voice.

"Draco, I-I'm still in l-love with you" She confessed.

Draco's heart soared. He had been wanting this for so long.

"I love you too, Hermione" he said as he leaned his head down and gave her a soft kiss on her lips.

The three children peered through the window.

James stood back and grinned.

"Looks like your mum and dad are getting back together" he smiled.

A huge smile formed on Leanna's face as she threw herself into James' arms.

Not only am I getting a sibling, but a new cousin too! Lily thought as she smiled.

A/N I know its a little short but I needed a chapter to transition to the next step. Enjoy :)
