"Pregnant?!" Draco managed to get out of his mouth before passing out. Ginny rolled her eyes and revived him by slapping him in the face. "Where? What happened? Oh yeah. I was right in the middle of being unconscious." Draco passed out again.
"Draco! Stop fainting and wake up! This is serious!" Ginny yelled slapping him in the face again. Harder this time.
"Wha…how did this happen? I thought we were careful! When did this happen?" Draco finally came to and sputtered out. "When? Christmas!" Ginny answered.
"You mean that fling we had after Christmas din…oh no." Draco shut his mouth for a minute pondering. Finally he spoke again. "How come you're taking this so well? When did you find out?"
"One question at a time tiger." Ginny grinned. "I found out about a couple days ago, and was deciding on how to tell you. As for the handling part, I was thinking about it for the longest time, and I finally I thought to myself that I really want the baby, and that I hope you can want it as much as I do."
Draco thought about this for a while in silence. He then replied. "Yes Ginny. I do want this child. And I do want to marry you. Not because you're pregnant, but because I want to spend the rest of my life with you and whoever is in there." He pointed at Ginny stomach.
"Good. Now let's go to lunch. Do you think we should tell Harry and the others? Or wait until they notice that I've put on weight?"
"No. Tell them now, but I'm afraid your brother will want to kill me. Could you bring them here, so that everybody won't know about it? Thank God Fred and George graduated 2 years ago. Oh God! What are they going to do to me? And your parents! Mine could care less, but your mother! She'll send me a howler, and that will be the end of me! They'll call you a whore, and we'll get expelled! What are we going to do??"
"Draco! Calm down! I'll write a letter to my parents, and ask them not to send a howler. Now stay here while I go get Ron, Harry, and Hermione. Meanwhile, you can cast a shield charm on yourself to protect you from Ron. It was hard enough to accept you as my boyfriend, and now he has to know this? I better cast a shield charm on myself!" Ginny got up and gave Draco a reassuring kiss on the cheek before leaving.
Draco got up and crossed the room and sat in a desk with his wand out ready to stun Ron if he came at him. He then started to think about when the baby would be born. *Well, if it was conceived on December 25, then the due date is around the end of July, and early August. We should probably get married before then, and before she starts to show. I don't want a bastard child. Easter would be a nice wedding. She can come to my place and we will have a lovely ceremony…* Draco was just about to think up how he wanted the wedding when Ginny came back with a very confused looking Harry, Hermione, and Ron.
"Now what's this all about Ginny? Wait. Let me guess. Let's see…Draco is clutching his wand, and there's sweat on his forehead. And his foot is tapping the floor like crazy as if he's nervous." Said Hermione. "Ginny also looks apprehensive, but is more chipper then usuale. Plus she wanted to tell us something in private, which is not normal. I've also noticed she kept looking at Ron with nervous glances. I know! You're pregnant!" Hermione finally said with laughter. Harry and Ron also started to laugh as if the idea was ridiculous. Ginny and Draco just stared at them like deer caught in the headlights. Hermione noticed they were not laughing and shouted. "That was my joke guess!"
Then Ron stopped laughing. "You mean you really are pregnant?!" Ginny nodded and Draco clutched his wand more tightly. But before Ron could do anything, there was a loud thump heard behind them. All eyes looked behind Ron to see that Harry had fainted with shock.

When Harry came to, he realized he was in his dorm, and that everyone (Hermione, Ron, although strangely Ginny and Draco were not above his head, and Dumbledore…Dumbledore?) was looking at him. "Professor Dumbledore? What are you doing here?" Harry asked.
"Well as soon as Ms. And Mr. Weasley, Ms. Granger, and Mr. Malfoy had gotten you up here, Ms. Granger came to me and asked me to accompany her to your dorm. I believe Mr. Malfoy has filled me in as to his and Ms. Weasley's predicament. But seeing as how this concerns them and not you, I ask you and Hermione and Ron to leave so we can have a private conversation?"
"Wait a minute! How come I have to leave? I'm the mother-to-be's brother you know. I think I have a right to know how this happened, and what's going to happen!" Ron shouted.
"You're right Mr. Weasley, you have every right to, but Mr. Potter, Ms. Granger, if you please? Oh and you might want to get back to your afternoon classes. If any teacher stops you, tell them you have my permission to be late." Dumbledore said gesturing to the door. With reluctance, Hermione and Harry left the dorm room. "How about that Harry. We're going to be godparents!" Hermione said.
"How do you know?" Harry replied. "Ginny told me a while ago. She said that when she had kids, she would like you and me to be the godparents." Harry pondered this on his way to Charms class.
(A/N: Another relatively short chapter, but I'm staying up till midnight writing this, so be happy! I had another Roseanne reference, so I don't own Roseanne. Next chapter, we get into Dumbledore's interrogation with Draco and Ginny. And by the way, Hermione and Harry have been boyfriend/girlfriend for a year now. R/R!!!)
