"Go ahead Felicity, try and dump me if you want."

"I can't believe she would go and do that." Mrs Blair muttered angrily. "And don't you dare try and get her out of it! She has to face the consequences of her actions."

"No, you don't understand-"

"I understand perfectly well thank you! Now if you wouldn't mind, I'd like you to leave our house." Mrs Blair linked arms with her husband and Mr Malfoy sighed, turning and walking out.

"What shall we do to punish her?" Mr Blair asked his wife. "Should we end the engagement between her and Draco? Or should we just take her out of Hogwarts?" he questioned.

"I think ending the engagement would be a better punishment. She seemed rather happy when we told her of it. Perhaps she'll learn her lesson this way." Mrs Blair said.

"Ah, but if the child belongs to Draco it would be better for both families sakes to keep them together." Mr Blair pointed out. Mrs Blair nodded slowly, and they locked eyes, grinning. "So I shall take her out of Hogwarts then?

"Yes, and do it soon." Mrs Blair said, walking to the kitchen.

Felicity felt a lot better being a friend of Draco. Whoever wasn't friends with him got teased mercilessly and many rumours were spread about them. The rumours about Felicity had completely died down and it was almost as if her life had gone back to normal, although she still had to visit the hospital wing occasionally for more medicine to make the pain go away.

Maddie and Blaise had begun going out again and didn't deny it in front of Liss, not even stopping their make out sessions any more when she walked in the room. She ignored them all the time, quite satisfied to remain friends with Draco alone.

"Day dreaming about me again?" Felicity snapped out of her thoughts to see Draco right in front of her, his head on his hand as he leant on the desk and stared into her eyes with a smirk on his face. She blushed and he took it as a yes. "Well, I am gorgeous." he shrugged, leaning back and putting his arms behind his head.

"Stop it, do you want me to drool?" Felicity laughed, whacking his arm playfully. He chuckled and dropped his arms to his sides, picking up his quill again and turning back to his book. They were in the library working on some overdue herbology homework which Felicity had insisted they do.

"What did you write?" he asked, reaching forward to grab her book. Normally, she would never let anyone copy from her, but this time she leant back and let him take it and copy out all her writing.

"Oh look, the love-birds." Felicity and Draco looked over to see Hermione, Harry and Ron walking up.

"Hey!" Felicity said sweetly, waving. Draco snorted in an attempt to hide his laughter and looked down at his book. "What brings you to the library? Are you doing herbology homework too?" she asked.

"What? But that was due yesterday!" Hermione said.

"Yeah, I know." Felicity said, shrugging. She took her book back off Draco and began the next section of homework.

"So did you want something?" Draco asked, turning to them with a smirk. Felicity kicked him under the table and he smirked wider, not taking his eyes of the three Gryffindors while kicking her back.

"I believe that if you dumped him, Felicity, you would be a much better person." Hermione said. Harry and Ron nodded their agreement, though it looked like they had been dragged here for support.

"Oh please, no one dumps a Malfoy." Draco laughed turning back to his book with a shake of his head. Felicity frowned slightly. So it was true.

"See? You're unsure right now." Hermione said. Draco looked up at her and she shrugged at him with a smile. His eyes narrowed, knowing almost immediately that it was fake.

"Go ahead Felicity, try and dump me if you want." he said.

"I never would!" she said. "I.. I love you." she mumbled, her gaze falling to her book.

"Exactly. That is why no one ever dumps a Malfoy. They always fall in love and then are never able to get over us." Draco explained for Harry, Hermione and Ron. Felicity drank the information in also. Never get over him? It was an interesting concept, but Felicity wasn't even sure if she did love him yet, it was all a pretence. Wasn't it?

"Let's hope you don't get over her then." Hermione snapped, spinning around and walking off. Harry and Ron exchanged a bored glance and followed her.

"I won't." he snarled at their backs angrily. Liss blushed and hurriedly wrote down some information for her homework. "We're still pretending, aren't we?" he asked, turning to her with narrowed eyes. She looked up at him.

"Um, I think." she said. They stared at each other, their gazes not wavering in the slightest. Draco slowly reached a hand forward and touched the side of her face, leaning towards her as she instinctively also leaned forward.

"Pretending is so much fun." he whispered, a smirk breaking out on his face as he kissed her. She couldn't help the blush covering her face in embarrassment and just kissed him back, silently agreeing.

"We should get to class." Felicity said after they parted, putting her books back in her bag.

"I guess. We were in here for a long time weren't we?" he laughed, putting away his own books and standing up. She nodded and followed him out.

At lunch, Felicity got a letter. She noticed immediately from the stamp that it was from her parents, so she excused herself to go and read it privately. She went to her dorm and closed the door, sitting on her bed and opening it up.

Dear Felicity,

We have heard about what you did with your fiancé and as a punishment we are taking you out of Hogwarts. This is so that we can keep some of our reputation and hopefully you will leave before the news spreads around the school.

Please do not object and simply pack your things quickly. We will be there to pick you up soon after lunch. Meet us at the front doors of the Hogwarts castle.

You will not be keeping the child you got pregnant with. We are very disappointed with you and don't know what you were thinking.

-Natalie Blair, your Mother.

Felicity hardly read the last words on the page as they were smudging with the tears that fell from her eyes. She couldn't believe it. Was this serious? How could her parents do this to her? Didn't they understand that she hadn't done anything wrong?

Putting the letter aside, she went over to her drawers and began packing her things into her suitcase. Her tears were still falling from her eyes and she tried wiping them away but they wouldn't stop. The door opened and Felicity quickly grabbed the letter, stuffing it in her pocket. She shoved her suitcase to the side and pretended to be doing some homework. Maddie walked in.

"Liss? Are you okay?" she said slowly, seeing the tears on her friends face. Felicity nodded, looking up at her with a smile.

"I'm fine! This baby can really kick though, sometimes!" she said, laughing. Maddie grinned and nodded, walking over to her drawers and pulling something out before leaving again. Felicity wiped away her remaining tears and swallowed the feeling of pain inside of her. It was easier to pretend when there was an audience.

She continued packing her suitcase and was soon finished, quickly making her bed and then dragging her suitcase downstairs. She paused and glanced back up to the dorm, feeling like she'd forgotten something. Her eyes widened and she left her suitcase, quickly running up again and putting Angel in her cat carry-cage before carrying her downstairs again.

Quickly walking through the halls of Hogwarts, she made her way towards the doors. She could see it up ahead and paused, glancing back at the place that she'd only been for about three weeks and already it was the friendliest place and she loved it so much. Then she gasped, dropping Angel and her suitcase onto the ground and clutching her stomach.

Draco looked around impatiently, wondering where Liss had gone to read her letter and why it was taking so long. It hadn't looked like a long letter, it had looked pretty short. He sighed, shoving his fork around in his food and then finally standing up and walking out.

First of all, Draco checked the Ravenclaw common room. He had caught one of the students just as they were coming out and had been allowed in. He had looked everywhere for her, and the breath had caught in his throat when he saw her empty drawers and the neat bed.

"Where have you gone?" he whispered, turning and leaving. He tried the room of requirements, the library and outside through the back door. Then he came back and was running through all the corridors of the castle, searching for any clue.

"Malfoy! There you are." he stopped and turned to see Maddie walking up. "What's wrong? You look worried."

"Have you seen Felicity?" he asked.

"Yeah, she's up in the dorm doing some homework, why?" Maddie asked.

"No she's not! I checked there already!" Draco said, running a hand through his hair. "All her stuff was gone and her bed was made." Maddie's eyes widened.

"Well, when I came in she was crying but she said it was just the baby kicking." Felicity said slowly.

"Oh no." Draco said.

"What?" Maddie asked, concern in her eyes.

"Her parents probably found out and that's who the letter was from, crap!" Draco clenched his teeth together in helpless frustration.

"What letter?" Maddie asked, confused.

"Never mind, I have to find Liss!" he said, running past her to leave her standing there and staring.

Felicity squeezed her eyes shut and questioned over and over in her head why she had forgotten to take her medicine that morning. The pain was excruciating!

"Someone help me..." she whispered, dropping to her knees and buckling right over in an effort to make it go away. Angel mewed quietly, pawing at her cage and trying to get at her owner.

"I said at the door, not ten steps away. Get off the floor." As soon as she heard her fathers voice, Felicity burst out crying and the tears flowed down her cheeks. "Stop all this drama and get off the floor!" he roared again, grabbing her arm and pulling her up.

"Please! You don't.."

"No Felicity, don't speak. No tantrum throwing is going to allow you to stay at Hogwarts." her father cut in, picking up her suitcase and dragging her towards the door. She looked back at where Angel was peering out at her with sad eyes and she closed her eyes tightly, knowing there was no way she'd be able to keep her anyway.

"It hurts." Felicity mumbled.

"Of course it hurts. You did something terrible that could ruin our reputation completely!" her father said sternly. Swallowing shakily, Felicity wiped her tears away and tried to ignore the pressing pain in her stomach.

"Felicity!" she and her father turned to see Draco running straight towards them.

"Get in the car." her father shoved her suitcase in her hands and she turned obediently, looking down at the ground and trying to understand why it was hard to leave Draco. Did she actually love him for real?

"Don't make her leave! It's not her fault!" Draco yelled desperately, stopping in front of her father and staring up at him defiantly.

"Oh? So you pressured her into it then?" her father said accusingly.

"What? How could I pressure her into it?" Draco asked. Then his eyes widened. "You don't even know the real story! For goodness sake my father gave her a freaking potion that got her pregnant."

"I will not waste my time talking to an insolent boy." her father turned but Draco grabbed his arm boldly and pulled him back.

"Why don't you tell my father that you think I'm insolent, how tough would you look then, ey?" he said, his eyes glaring daggers. The fierce look in Felicity's fathers eyes faltered for a moment but then he sneered.

"All talk no show. It's how all the Malfoy's are." he turned and walked to the car and got in. Felicity had already put her suitcase in and turned to look at Draco one more time before letting her back face him again. She was about to get in when she gasped sharply and grabbed onto the door of the car to stop from falling down.

"Liss!" Draco said, rushing forward and grabbing her in his arms. She allowed him to take her weight, breathing heavily as she wrapped her arms around her neck.

"It hurts so much." she whispered. "I think.. I think the baby's coming."

"That's not possible. You're over-exaggerating!" Draco said desperately. "Sure, it was sped up. But it can't have been sped up this much! You're not even showing yet!" he said. Her father got out of the car again, anger plain on his face.

"Leave my daughter! You've already caused enough trouble for my family!" he yelled, pulling Felicity to him and shoving her in the car, slamming the door.

"How can you do that to your own daughter?" Draco asked, shaking his head in disbelief. "I know how she feels, because our families are exactly the same. The parents always expect more from the children than they can give. One day Felicity's going to break and because of you I'm not going to be there for her to lean on. She'll be alone with no one to talk to. That's the kind of parent you are." Draco turned on his heal and walked off, fuming.

Felicity slammed her hands against the car window, looking out with tears streaming down her face as she watched Draco walk away. He wasn't trying to save her any more, why not? She fell away from the window as another surge of pain overcame her and she closed her eyes, wondering why her world had begun to collapse when she went to Hogwarts.
