"Every morning is the dawn of a new error."
--Unknown Chapter 5: Hermione's SecretHermione walked down the 3rd floor corridor, when she suddenly saw Draco Malfoy leaning against the wall. He saw her too, and as soon as he did, he took off. Hermione sighed. She hadn't been able to talk to Draco for over a week now, for what she couldn't possibly imagine. Unless, he knew he had impregnated her.
"HI!" Popped a voice behind her. It was Adele, with her usual babyish smile on her face.
"What do you want?" Hermione replied, after a short sigh.
"Well, lots of thing, but Santa will bring them to me. I wanted to tell you your stomachs gotten bigger." She raised her right hand and pointed at the small lump under Hermione's robes. "Somebody's been eating a lil' too much…. Something."
"Shut up." Adele's eyes became wide. She stared at Hermione for a few seconds before a devilish grin spread across her face. " I have to go," she began, "Bye." She took off down the corridor, giggling all the time.
Hermione continued her walk down the corridor. When she reached a corner, she had a sudden feeling to throw up, which she did, right there on the floor. Everyone around her simply stared, before forgetting about it and going on with his or her idiotic life.
"Ms. Granger, " Said a sly voice behind her. "How about you take trip to the hospital wing?" Hermione turned around, only to accidentally have her lips touch with Professor Snapes.
"Why, Hermione, not it public!" He teased.
"Yes, well, sorry, Professor." She said in a sarcastic way.
"No time for excuses, Granger, off to the Hospital Wing with you now."
"Oh, I don't think I need to go…." Snape gave a glance at Hermione's vomit, before pointing in the direction of the Hospital Wing. Reluctantly, Hermione obeyed.
Hours later, Katy found herself walking by the Hospital wing when she heard the cries inside.
"Positive, Hermione. I would have never thought this of you," said the familiar voice of Madam Pomfery. Katy didn't under stand what she meant by "positive", so she put her ear to the door and listened as hard as she could.
"Are you sure?" She heard the voice of Hermione say; even though she knew herself, it was true.
"This is a magical pregnancy test, Hermione, they're never wrong." Katy gave a soft gasp. Pregnancy test? Oh- my- god!, she thought., MUST TELL! She ran as fast as she could to gossip to the most gossipy people at Hogwarts. Within 15 minutes, everyone in the 6th year knew Hermione was pregnant. When the news reached Draco Malfoy he was utterly speechless, and decided that he should confront Hermione.
In the Gryffindor common room, Katy, Kat, Christine, Monica, Adele, and Ron, sat on one of the larger couches. All at once, they purposely fell to the floor, looking like it was an accident.
"Hah! I WON! I got to the floor first!" Shouted Monica in triumph.
"Second!" Yelled Kat.
"THIRD!" Screamed Christine.
"One-thousandth!" Added Adele.
"FIFTH!" Yelled Katy. "WOOHOO! I beat you, Adele!"
"Aww…"
"There's no more places for me…" Ron said, with a sad face.
"Ok, that's enough Famlfiggen, now, let's talk about Hermione's pregnancy." Announced Monica, in a dignified voice, as if she hadn't just been playing a childish game.
"Oh! Me first!" Shouted Adele.
"Ok, you first."
"I like raspberry soda!"
"Of course you do, hun."
"OOOOHH! Me too!" Added Kat.
"OFF THE SUBJECT!" Scolded Monica.
"But… but… but the subject is raspberry soda! Hermione being prego is off the subject!" Complained Adele.
"No, it is not! The subject is Hermione's pregnancy!"
"Oh… well, there isn't much to say about that except congratulations, Herhinney!"
"Her name is Hermione, not 'Herhinney'." Corrected Monica.
"Whatever," Adele said, before skipping off to do her own things.
"Enough about Adele," Said Christine, a few seconds after Adele left, "she's not important. What's important is that I'm gonna be an aunty!"
"Not just you! Me and Katy are too!" Kat protested.
"You're not important either."
"Oh, piggle waggle! Ron's fallen asleep!" Kat quickly walked across the room to a wooden chest of drawers. She pulled out one of the drawers and found a yellow blanket with the words "Moo, Meep, and Famoo" on it in red string. She walked back to the other side of the room and just dropped the blanket on Ron's head as she passed his sleeping body on the floor. Then she sat in a chair, facing the large couch.
"I'm pregnant," Kat suddenly said.
"Oh my god! Really?" Demanded Katy.
"No, not really."
"Oh well," Katy looked down at her watch, "it's 54 o' clock, which means it's rumor time! I'm gonna tell everyone that Ron was the result of a cockroach experiment gone wrong."
"All right, bye," Everyone murmured.
"Cockroach boy! Haha!" Yelled some 5th year Slytherins as they passed Ron in the great hall. Ron gave them a puzzled look, before beginning to cry. He stood up and ran right out of the hall and into the dungeons where he began to learn how to live amongst the cockroaches.
"Where's Ron?" Asked Katy, later that evening. Everyone shrugged, since no one really cared. At the same time, Hermione was sitting on the top of the cheese rainbow, nibbling cheese to drown her sorrow, when she noticed a familiar figure step out of the castle. He was smiling at her, for what reason she didn't know so she simply put on a puzzled expression.
"Hermione?" Called the voice of Draco Malfoy.
"Wha?" She replied with her mouth full of cheese.
"I know your little secret. Most everyone knows thanks to Katy." Hermione's jaw dropped.
"KATYYYYYYYYY!!" She shouted. It echoed on and on deep into the forest and into Katy's ear.
"Hmm… I guess she found out." Katy muttered, before shrugging and going back to reading her book upside down.
"Yes, well, maybe it was a good thing," Draco said, "or else I would've never found out."
"So what do we do now?"
"I dunno." Hermione gave him a scolding look. Her eyes were fierce and made a chill run down his back. Next thing he knew, he was bending down on one knee and saying, "Will you marry me?" Hermione turned red.
"Is… is this your solution?"
"Well… I suppose so."
"Well then, ok. I'll give you the honor of marrying me." Draco fell over and passed out.
"Hun? Oh well." She through a lump of cheese at him and then continued eating.
Meanwhile, Kat and Monica were sitting in the library when Kat asked, "Where's Ron?"
"Probably whimpering 'cause of Katy's rumor…"
"Great! Just frizzlesom! We better find him…"
"What for?"
"Because if we don't Dumbledore will take away our chocolate privileges!" Monica gasped.
"He wouldn't!"
"He would!"
"Even Voldemort wouldn't… Dumbleding is a terrible man…"
"Dumbledore, you mean."
"Whatever." The 2 girls got up and headed for the dungeons, where Ron usually was. They climbed down the stone steps for what seemed like forever. They climbed down until they reached the very end, where they found Ron on scuttling on the floor, like, well, a cockroach. Kat studied his movements, and then the movements of the cockroaches around him. Monica dug in her pocket and took out a can of bug spray.
"What are you doing carrying around a can of bug spray?" Asked Kat when she saw.
"It makes cheese taste good."
"Right…" Monica began spraying all the cockroaches, and one by one they died. Ron scuttled around furiously in utter horror. Monica and Kat looked at each other, and then nodded in agreement. Monica sprayed Ron, and they watched him shake as if he were dying. They grabbed his feet and began dragging him up the steps. The only noise was that of his head hitting each step.
When they reached the Gryffindor common room, they laid Ron on the couch. He was already starting do de-cockroach. Adele suddenly came dashing in.
"Go away," Monica said to her.
"Wha… what?"
"Go away!" The wind began to howl in the Gryffindor common room, and Adele's eyes suddenly gave off powerful beams of white light. Her mouth opened and shot out the same beam, then her hair shot up in all the wind and swayed as if it were seaweed. Her feet left the ground some 3 feet, and then she began spinning around. The lights began coming after Kat and Monica and they ran in fear. They ran around the circular common room, the lights chasing right behind them. When they reached Ron, he got up and ran along with them. Within a few seconds the lights got him and then suddenly Adele went back to normal…
"RON! Oh well…" Kat said.
"What the piggles was that, Adele?"
"Just a little trick I learned…"
"What did you do to Ron?" Kat asked, as she saw that Ron wasn't dead as she had suspected. Instead he was looking around surprised that he wasn't dead.
"Nothing."
"Then what was that light?"
"Light." At that moment Katy came into the common room, shouting, "HERMIONE'S ENGAGED TO MALFOY! TELL YOUR FRIENDS!" And so that was how it went. Hermione was engaged.
