Chapter Six: Hospital Wing

Lavender wasn't paying the usual amount of attention during Divination, at least not to Professor Trelawney. Ron, Lavender, Harry and a disgruntled Parvati were sitting around a lopsided table in the far back corner of the classroom. Lavender was trying to make Ron laugh by tickling his leg - and moving farther and farther up it.

"Lavender! Stop it!" Ron whispered, stifling a laugh by stuffing his fist in his mouth. But in addition to stopping his laugh, his hand made him unable to tell off Lavender properly, and instead he simply mumbled forcefully. This, in addition to the tickling, caused both Ron and Lavender to burst out laughing. Harry couldn't help himself either and after watching the entire episode joined in on the laughter.

"Children!" Professor Trelawney dropped her misty tone. "Pay Attention! If you don't start taking a serious interest in your work you will not be able to succeed in the NEWTS, which I hardly need to remind you, you need to pass in order to graduate!"

"We are terribly sorry, Professor." Lavender said in a syrupy sweet voice. "I just had this vision where the Daily Prophet was announcing the world's greatest Seer, and the vision ended before I could see who it was. So I told my friends here about my vision and they pointed out there was only one Seer it could possibly be, you. I started laughing because I hadn't thought of you right away. We were all just laughing at my silly mistake." Harry and Ron put on huge fake smiles and nodded happily. Professor Trelawney smiled back at them.

"Of course, my dears." Professor Trelawney said, back in her misty tone. Ron, Harry and Lavender snickered under their breath.

"How the hell can she eat up crap like that?" Ron asked to Harry.

"God knows. She'll probably take anything that will boost her ego." They all laughed quietly. Ron put his arm around Lavender, squeezing her close to him.

*~*~*~*~*

"Where is Mione?" Harry asked, sitting down for dinner. "I just came from the common room, she isn't there. I thought she would be here. Have you seen her?" Harry looked at Ron, whom he had sat next to. Ron, however, wasn't seeing or hearing anything but Lavender. Harry sighed. He quickly downed some pumpkin juice and grabbed a brownie before heading off to look for Hermione.

After another half hour of searching all of Hermione's usual hideouts and library corners, Harry was getting seriously worried. It wasn't like Hermione to not show up in the common room after classes without telling someone where she was. Harry collapsed into a library chair and began to rack his brain for random places where Hermione could be. Parvati came in and walked over to Harry.

"Harry! Hermione needs you."

"Where is she? I've been looking everywhere for her!"

"She's in the hospital wing. She sent a message that she needs you to go talk to her right away."

"Is she hurt? What happened?" Harry jumped out of his seat.

"She didn't say. All she said was you had better get there in a hurry."

"Thanks, Parvati"

Harry sprinted out of the library with all the speed he possessed. A thousand horrible thoughts crossed his mind about what could have happened to his dear Hermione since he had seen her that morning. He calmed himself with the fact that it was probably just the stomach ache she had been experiencing for the past few days, but then . . . why call him? Why tell him to hurry? Harry reached the hospital wing and pushed the door open. He searched frantically for Hermione, and to his relief found her fully intact, She was sitting alone on a bed in the corner, reading. Harry ran up to her and kissed her briefly.

"Sweetie, what's the matter? Are you all right? I was so worried when Parvati told me you were in here."

"Harry . . . I - " She fell off.

"What is it, honey?"

"Well, I've been feeling off color for a few days now: stomach ache, cramps, gas, head ache, that kind of thing." She paused.

"So, do you need to spend the night? Do you want me to wait with you?"

"I don't need to spend the night, Harry."

"Mione, what's the matter? You can tell me!"

"Harry . . . I . . . I love you." Harry smiled.

"I love you, too, Hermione. More than you could imagine." Hermione gave an unsure smile. It faltered and a single tear fell.

"Harry - "

"Mione, whatever it is, we can deal with it. Together. What's the matter?" Hermione shook her head slightly.

"I'm pregnant."
