A/N: YEAH! Another update. Wow, I thought my last chapter was longer but I was way wrong I think it was the shortest yet. SORRY! Well, here's another! YEAH, again! Oh, I just thought I'd say that the characters are well, out of character but whatever. Oh, and if you haven't noticed I use Mr. Weasley a lot more than Mrs. Weasley. I really like him.

"HERMIONE?! HERMIONE?! SOMEONE HELP!" Ron yelled. He had just caught the love of his life as she fell to the ground, she was out cold. "HERMIONE?!" Ron called again just as his family came rushing through the door.

"RON! What happened?!" Mr. Weasley asked hurrying to his son's side.

"She was too stressed, she just passed out!" Ron said hysterically.

"Ron, get her in the fireplace we have to take her to Saint Mungo's!" Mr. Weasley said. Ron instantly scooped her up and jumped in the fireplace, his father threw the floo powder in. "I'm right behind you, go!" Mr. Weasley said quickly.

"SAINT MUNGO'S HOSPITAL!" Ron called out and he was soon wishing through the floo network while holding Hermione to him tightly. He stepped out into the large room filled with other witches and wizards. "SOMEONE HELP!" Ron yelled. One of the nearby nurses rushed to his side.

"What happened?" The nurse asked.

"She's pregnant! She was too stressed and passed out!" Ron said frantically. "PLEASE HELP HER!"

"Ron calm down. They're going to take care of her," Mr. Weasley said coming up to his son.

The nurse conjured up a stretcher. "Lay her on this, quickly," the nurse said and then rushed off with her.

"HEY WHERE ARE YOU TAKING HER?!" Ron asked about to follow but his father stopped him.

"Ronald, you aren't allowed back there,"

"Dad, what's going to happen to her? To the baby?" Ron asked.

"I don't know son," Mr. Weasley replied sadly just as Harry and Ginny appeared next to them, followed by George and Mrs. Weasley.

Hermione woke up in a daze where was she? Why was it so bright? Hermione was blinded by a big white light that was shining all around her. Hermione lifted her hand to block the light but was stopped when she noticed it was being held down by Ron.

"Ron?" Hermione asked still squinting from the light.

"Hermione," Ron sighed in relief.

"Where am I?"

"You're in the hospital, love," Ron said kissing her hand.

"Can you turn down the light?" Hermione asked annoyed. (A/N: Has anybody realized that hospital lighting sucks! They have these huge lights right above the beds! Well, at least in my local hospital. Anyway…)

"Of course, love," Ron said and he walked to the other side of the bed and switched off the lights. There was enough light to still see Ron and Hermione was thankful for that.

"Ron! Is…is the baby okay?" Hermione asked frantic.

"Yes, Hermione the baby is okay but you can't get worked up anymore," Ron said sitting on the edge of her bed and rubbing her cheek. Hermione nodded and closed her eyes. When she opened them again a moment later she saw something she never thought she'd see Ron had tears rolling down his cheeks.

"Ron, what's the matter?" Hermione asked confused taking his hand in hers.

"I almost lost you Hermione, you almost left me forever. What would I do without you?" Ron asked his face contorted in pain.

"Ron, I'm so sorry. I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to take better care of myself I promise," Hermione said tears streaming down her face as well. "What did the healers say?" Hermione asked.

"They said that your pregnancy is going to be touchy and that you have to be careful and watch your stress levels. If you don't there's a good chance that you'll…"

"Lose the baby," Hermione finished for him. Ron simply nodded and they both sat in silence for awhile until a nurse entered the room.

"Oh, Mrs. Risston you're awake wonderful, your family will be very happy to hear it,"

"Please call me Hermione," Hermione realized she would be saying that a lot these days still she wanted no ties to Eli he was the reason she was here.

"Of course, Hermione," The nurse responded and looked Hermione over and asked her simple questions like are you feeling any pain, are you tired. "Well, I'll go notify your family that you're awake," the nurse said and left the room.

"Who's here?" Hermione asked.

"Mum, Dad, Harry, Ginny and George," Ron said giving her a small smile.

"Ron, how long was I asleep?" Hermione asked curiously.

"The rest of the day and the entire night. Merlin, Hermione you really had me worried," Ron said his brow furrowed.

"I really am sorry, Ron. About everything not telling you about what Eli did, for burdening you and your family, and for making you worry again," Hermione said ashamed.

"Hermione, you really need to stop apologizing. You have done nothing wrong. All I want you to do is get better and stay better so we can live our lives with our baby," Ron said taking her hand and squeezing it.

"Hermione! Oh, goodness you're alright, thank Merlin!" Mrs. Weasley said bustling into the room and hugging Hermione.

"Hello, Mrs. Weasley," Hermione greeted quietly. The others all said their hellos and said how worried they were about her. "I'm so…" Hermione was about to apologize but received a look from Ron that told her she'd better not. "I'm so glad you're all here," Hermione finished instead. Ron smiled at her and she smiled back.

The next morning Hermione was released from Saint Mungo's, with a long list of dos and don'ts. No coffee, try not to work, nothing strenuous. Do rest, relax, eat right and exercise (nothing strenuous). Ron couldn't be happier to have her come home. He had called in a replacement at work for the week so he could spend all his time with Hermione. As they walked out of Ron's fireplace Hermione sighed happily and sat on the couch.

"It's so good to be home,"

"It's still so good to hear you say that," Ron said sitting next to her and pulling her down so they were lying together.

"Ron, I really do love you," Hermione said pushing ginger locks out of his crystal blue eyes.

"I really love you too, Mione," Ron said kissing her nose. "I'm going to go make lunch can you check the post?" Ron asked standing up. Hermione nodded and she too stood. As Hermione scooped up the pile of letters she saw one that was messily addressed to her. She knew that writing. Eli. Hermione hesitated as to whether or not to open it and her curiosity got the better of her.

Hermione, you should know you mudblood whore that I am not giving up. Even if I don't want the little brat that's inside of you it's still mine and I will not have you sharing it with that poor excuse for a wizard! I'm not done with you yet. Oh, how was the hospital visit? I hope you enjoyed it as much as you're other stays. I wouldn't share this letter with your git. He has quite the temper I might have to defend myself. Remember I'm not giving up!

See you soon darling.

A/N: I didn't mean to do a cliffhanger again. SORRY! Oh and the letter is in a different font but I don't know if it will show but if your curious, I don't think you will be, but if you are it's Pristina. It looks messy to me. Bye.
