A/N: Hello everyone, Well this is my first attempt at fan fiction so don't murder me or anything. Well This story is a hermione/harry with a little bit of hermione/theodore nott. Also the beginning of the storing is going to start off a little slow and will be talking place in the Marauders time period. Well I hope you enjoy and any reviews will be helpful! What's the point of writing a story if no one is going to review it and give constructive criticism? Any who please review so that I at least know someone is reading. Thank you all :)
January 31st 1979
Dorcas Meadowes was one of the smartest and bravest witches anyone could have the pleasure of meeting. During her Hogwarts days she was everything a Ravenclaw student strived to be even though she was a Gryffindor. She was smart, creative, brave, and selfless. Despite her intellect, however, she was currently at a loss for words. She couldn't begin to understand how any of this could be possible. Standing up from her bed she began pacing around the room in order to think.
How could this be happening? I thought I was being careful! Should I tell him? Wait what am I thinking of course I should tell him! How should I tell him? What if he doesn't understand! What about our friends, they don't even know we're married. Suddenly she stopped pacing when the worst thought hit her. "Oh no, Lily and Marlene! There going to kill me after I tell them. They've been dying to know who I've been seeing and once they find out everything I'm dead!" She became silent once more thinking of the ways her friends would be planning her death once they found out about her secret relationship. Dorcas was so deep in thought she didn't hear the door of her bedroom being opened. Nor did she hear the steady foot steps getting closer towards her. She let out a deep breath and sighed, "How am I going to tell Gideon!?". The person who had been sneaking towards her stopped. "What if he doesn't understand and decides he doesn't want to be with me anymore." What is Dorcas going on about now and what's this got to do with Gideon? Well there's only one way to find out. Once he finally reached dorcas, the unknown man grabbed her from behind and covered her eyes. Dorcas, not knowing how she could have missed hearing when someone walked into her room stiffened. "Who are you?" She felt her captor's breath near her ear and if possible stiffened even more when she heard his voice, " Hello love, did you miss me? What's this I hear about Gideon and him leaving you? Have you been going out with him and neglected to tell anyone about it hmm?". After letting her go, Dorcas spun around and came face to face with an amused looking Sirius Black.
"Sirius! What are you doing here? I thought everyone was off on missions."
"Well, it's nice to see you too Dorcas. I've been fine and yourself? Really is that anyway to greet a friend?"
Not in the mood for his childishness Dorcas got straight to the point. " How much did you hear Sirius. I'm not in the mood for games at the moment."
Vanishing the smile he had on his face, Sirius looked at Dorcas and thought before he answered. He wanted to say he heard everything but he knew she would ask him questions to find out for sure. Deciding on being truthful he responded, " I only heard you say that you didn't know how to tell Gideon something as well as something about him leaving you. Now are you going to tell me what in Merlin's beard is going on and why you're in such a rotten mood?"
Oh god, what am I going to do. How much do I tell him? " Well Sirius, you see I can't tell you." Seeing a look on his face that said he wasn't going to take that as an answer Dorcas continued, " I can't tell you at the moment. You see this is something I have to talk with Gideon first. After that I assure you that you will find out. Until then could you just keep this between you and I?"
With a scowl on his face Sirius agreed, turned around and left her room.
"Now I really need to tell Gideon before Sirius lets anything slip and tells everyone what he heard."
Alone once more Dorcas turned towards her mirror and preformed the spell once again just to be sure. "Sumego Gravida." She felt the magic circle around her and cover her with a warm feeling, once the feeling was gone she looked down and saw her stomach begin to turn a soft pinksh color. "Well this is certainly unexpected."
As she was staring at her reflection she saw the door begin to open once more so she cancelled the spell and began to talk to whom she assumed was Sirius, "Sirius I already told you I'm not going to tell you anything until I've spoken to Gideon. Now off you go and leave me alone! I swear you and James are always acting like little," She immediately stopped what she was going to say when she saw who really was behind her door. Turning around, Dorcas ran towards her beloved and enveloped him in a hug.
"Love, I know you missed me but I was only gone for half an hour. Not that I mind of course, but I've been gone for longer and you've never greeted me back like this. Is something.." His words were cut off when Dorcas pressed her lips onto his. Once they pulled apart Gideon had a content and goofy smile on his face and Dorcas couldn't help but giggle at the site. The sound of her laughter brought Gideon out of his daze, looking down at the love of his life he couldn't help grinning even more at her.
"Gideon I have something important to tell you. I don't know exactly how to tell you, I mean I know that you love me and all but I don't know how you're going to take the news and, "
"Dorcas, calm down will you. What is it that you have to tell me?" Dorcas stood there watching the love of her life watch her. This is tougher than I thought. How should I tell him? Gideon you got me pregnant. No that's not the way to go, how about we're having a baby. No that's too overdone. Oh wait I know what to do!
"Dorcas, what is it?"
Dorcas pulled Gideon inside her bedroom and began to lock and ward her room so no one could hear what she was about to say, or rather show her lover. Turning around she looked at Gideon with more determination than he had ever seen before and walked toward him.
"Umm love you're starting to scare me, can you please just tell me what the bloody hell is going on!"
"No. I can't tell you what's going on."
"Well then what.."
"I'm not done talking Gideon. I can't tell you what's going on, but I can show you. Sumego Gravida!"
Gideon watched as Dorcas was engulfed by a white light, he then saw her begin to lift her shirt up to expose her creamy colored skin. As she was doing this Gideon's breath quickened, his eyes grew wide and a small smirk began to appear on his face. Is this what she's been working me up about! She wants to have sex, god all she had to do was ask. As he kept staring at her, Gideon noticed her stomach began to turn a light pink color.
"Love, why is your stomach pink?"
"Oh honestly Gideon! I'm Pregnant, and we're having a girl!"
To her horror and amazement, Dorcas saw her husband's eyes roll into the back of his head and saw him hit the floor with a loud thump. "Well, that went better than I expected."
