"Magical girl, Muggle world"
Ginny was eating some toast and searching through the Prophet again. It had been a week since she had moved in and she was now on the hunt for a job.
Waiters and waitresses needed at the Hog's Head. Three sickles an hour. See Mr. Cunman there for details.
It was perfect. Nobody Ginny knew went to the Hog's Head, everyone preferred the Three Broomsticks. Ginny finished her toast and put it on the sink, she'd deal with it later. Ginny showered and dressed herself in a plain black robe.
She grabbed her bag and headed out the door. She reached the Hog's Head and opened the door. Ginny walked up to the owner.
"Um...Hi, I was curious about the waitress job you have on offer?" She asked.
"How old are you?" Mr. Cunman grunted.
"Er..fifteen" Ginny thought there was no point lying to him.
"You're a little young aren't you?" He said.
"Well, I'm pregnant and I need a job. If you can't offer me one, I'm sure there will be someone else who will" She said confidently.
"Doubt it. Nobody was a pregnant teenager and either do I. Beat it!" Mr. Cunman snapped.
"Thanks for the boost of confidence" Ginny mumbled and left the pub.
She went to the food market to pick up some food for the week. Ginny browsed what they had on sale when she spotted a silver-blonde head. Ginny gasped and immediately ran out the door.
Draco heard a gasp. He turned around to see Ginny run out. He followed.
"Hey! Weasley!" Draco yelled.
Ginny just kept running and running, desperate to get away from him. Draco dodged all the Wizards and Witches to get to her.
"Weasley, come back!" He called.
She ignored him and picked up her pace. There was no way she was going to let him ruin anything. Ginny reached a dead end.
"WEASLEY!" Draco bellowed.
"WHAT?!" She screamed.
"You can't just take off like that! Now that I know you're..you're pregnant" He said.
"Why? Why can't I leave? Why can't I avoid the stares and remarks? WHY?" Ginny yelled the last word.
"Because you won't GET the stares and remarks when you get an abortion!" Draco replied.
"Excuse me? Are you telling me I have to lose our baby? No. I'm giving this child a chance to live and if you won't do anything, don't. I can survive on my own" She said.
"Think how much this would ruin our lives. You're leaving school, I don't know WHERE you're going to work and you have no money!" He spat.
"I do have money. I have my family's life savings and I don't have a job. Yet. But I have a..um..house" Ginny said with her chin up. Partly because he was taller than her.
"Doesn't your family need all they can get?" Draco sneered.
"Don't you dare talk about my family that way" Ginny said in low but dangerous voice.
"Why are they gonna hurt me?" Draco said in a mock baby voice.
"I have nobody, ok? No-one. Your old mate, you-know-who killed the lot of them so I took off and they're probably six feet under now. Is that what you wanted to hear? Well, I hope you got the information you wanted and have a good life" Ginny turned and ran as fast as she could away from him.
Draco just stood there, stunned. He was frozen, he could move or he'd run after her. When the shock wore off, Draco thought about it.
Her family was gone she was on her own and he had no idea where she lived or worked.
Draco wondered what he was going to do. Ginny must be really strong to take all this on. He never imagined the fifteen-year-old girl would be in position she was now. No-one deserved to have such a hard time.

Ginny reached her house as fast as she could. She flopped on her bed, thinking how close she was to someone else finding her. Ginny had to go to the muggle world. The majority of Hogwarts students lived in the magical world and the muggle world was a lot bigger. Ginny's child could never know about Hogwarts, magic or especially Draco.
She dragged out her trunk once more and threw her clothes into it. Ginny flopped on the bed, as she wasn't going to leave until night time so no-one could see her. Ginny pondered over how much she'd miss the magical world. She knew quite a bit about muggles as she did muggle studies and being friends with Harry and Hermione helped.
Nightfall came quickly and Ginny stepped onto the sidewalk with her full trunk. She threw out her right hand and the knight bus came rolling down the street.
It came to a halt to where she was standing. The doors flew open and Stan plunged into his routine talk.
"Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. Just stick out your wand hand and we can take you anywhere you want to go. My name is Stan Shunpike and I will be your conductor this evening. Where would you like to go?" Stan said.
"Uh..London please" Ginny stepped onto the bus and found a bed.
She handed over the correct amount and sat down with a 'Witch's Weekly' that was all about, surprise surprise, pregnancy.
" 'Choo lookin' at that for?" Stan asked.
"I'm reading it for something to do" Ginny replied coolly.
"Woss the point?" He asked.
"My sister's pregnant and I'm looking up stuff for her" Ginny said.
"How old's she?" Stan said.
"Twenty-five" Ginny lied.
"Woss her name?" Stan was asking too many questions for Ginny's liking.
"Savannah" She said impatiently.
Stan noticed her tone and shut up. Ginny went on reading about cribs and food and names and all sorts of baby things. There was too many to choose from.
Finally, she was in London and got off the Knight Bus. Ginny looked around the dark street. She spotted a small Inn not too far from where she was. So Ginny went to it.
"Hello, how may I help you?" A middle-aged muggle woman smiled at her from behind the desk.
"Just a room for one thanks" Ginny said.
"Ok, here's your key and Adam will show you to your room" She handed Ginny a key with a tag on it.
A young muggle man took her trunk and led her to a door with the number '24' on it.
"Here's your room miss, and please don't hesitate to ask for anything" He nodded and walked away.
Ginny inserted the key into it's lock and twisted. The door opened and she looked inside. The room was small but very cosy looking. Ginny put her trunk in her bedroom but didn't unpack, not knowing how long she would be there.
The redhead jumped on her bed, falling asleep as soon as her head hit the soft pillow.
