Chapter 9- Surprises

10 weeks pregnant

Draco and Hermione walked out of the doctors office twenty minutes later. They took a sonogram pictures, weighed Hermione, took her blood. The doctor also did a chorionic villus sampling; they entered a long needle through her abdomen to take some amniotic fluid for testing the babies chromosomes. They also told us the baby's due date and gave us pamphlets and guides on what to expect while you're pregnant.

"So this," Draco asked Hermione pointing to the small picture, "This is our baby, right now?"

Hermione nodded, "Yes Draco, I've already told you that a million times."

"A-and they know that the baby will be due January 15th by taking blood from you?"

Hermione winced and rubbed her bruised arm. "Yes Draco. Now I'm hungry. Do you want to get something to eat before we head back to your place?"

He nodded, "Where at?"

"Um, let's go to Benny's. It's a muggle restaurant that sells pizza and sandwiches. I'm craving one right now... one with a ton of pickles! Yum!"

Draco was about to tell her that she hated pickles but decided to just stay mum. He got in the drivers side of the car and tapped his wand on the steering wheel. It silently and easily started driving, taking turns and speeding up and slowing down when it needed to. They entered the parking lot and slowly eased into a parking spot right by the door. They were greeted by a friendly hostess and seated immediately.

"Can I start you off with some appetizers and something to drink?" She said sweetly.

"I'll take butter-." Draco began but Hermione kicked him.

"He wants a butterscotch milkshake and a glass of water. I'll take the same and for appetizers..." Hermione quickly looked through the menu, "Your garlic bread sticks."

The hostess smiled, "Okay I'll be right back with those."

"I'm surprised you didn't ask for a bucket of pickles." Draco smirked while flipping through the menu.

"Shut up... wait can you do that?" she pondered this, then saw the look on Draco's face and shook her head. "Do you know what you're getting yet?

"This Shrimp Scampi and linguine looks good. What about you?"

"Umm... well they have this Hawaiin mini pizza... I want that and pickles! A lot of pickles!"

Draco snorted in disgust. They ate in piece, not saying much either. As they made there way home Hermione began to cry.

"What!" Draco asked accidently tapping his wand on the steering wheel, making the car come to a complete and abrupt stop.

"Nothing!" She yelled back.

Draco could see tears flowing down her face but he said nothing. He tapped his wand on the steering wheel again and the car began to move.

As soon as Draco stopped the car in front of their house, Hermione jumped out of the car and jogged into the house, slamming the door shut. Draco's patience was beginning to wear thin and he found himself furious with Hermione at this second.

He followed her steps through the house, to her room, throwing open the door. She was laying face down on her bed crying her eyes out.

"What the hell did I do now!" He screamed, slamming her door.

"Nothing! Just leave me alone."

"I'm leaving! This is so bloody ridiculous! I'm going!"

"Fine!" She shouted back, sitting up and looking him dead in the eye. "Just leave me here alone like you always do. I haven't even talked to my friends in a month because of you!"

"I never told you that you couldn't go see your friends. You're overreacting. If you don't like being here and trying to make things work out for OUR baby then go! I don't bloody fucking care anymore!"

Hermione sat on her bed, speechless, trying to figure out something cunning to say back. Before she could think of something he was out the front door and apparating to an unknown place.

She cried out in frustration before turning around and making her way to the living room fireplace.

"The Burrow!" She shouted, throwing ashes into the fireplace.

She swirled uncomfortably in warm green flames, passing other fireplaces before landing in the familiar room.

The house was quiet and no one was in the living room. She walked slowly and cautiously through the living room and into the dining room. No one was there either. She was about to turn around and leave when she heard a loud bang outside and loud voices.

Fearing the worst she pulled out her wand and jogged to the front door. She ran to the side garden and saw the whole Weasley family plus Harry, Luna and Neville, watching fireworks explode in the air that fight each other.

"This must be another Weasley creation?" Hermione said quietly behind Ginny.

Everyone turned to look at her, surprised at first, then rushed to her and hugged her tight.

Once the greetings were exchanged they went inside to eat some late night dessert. It was warm apple pie a la mode.

"This is so yummy!" Hermione said happily.

She could barely stop smiling because she was so happy she was there.

"You look happy Hermione." Ginny said, "Is everything going well with Draco?"

"Um," Hermione began, how were things going? "Well... things could be better... but then again they could be worse. We went to a muggle doctor today to get a check and look what we got."

She took her purse out and pulled out a small square with a picture of black and white on it. She handed it to Ginny just smiling.

"What is it?"

"That's my baby!"

"Oh! I see it now, there's the head right?"

Hermione nodded.

"She's so small!"

"She?" Hermione laughed, "I'm seriously hoping it's a she just to prove Malfoy wrong."

They two girls laughed and gossiped until nearly 10 'o' clock at night. Hermione left through the fireplace and landed just where she left from, feeling happier now. She thought it was probably a good idea to apologize to Draco for her emotions the past few days.

She walked up the spiraling staircase towards the west wing of the house. Without knocking she opened the door and found something that made her slam the door shut as quickly as she had opened it.
