Ch.13 "Old Habits:Part 2"
Hermione paced in the Heads commonroom, waiting for Draco to come back. She had to tell him, just HAD to . . . she did not know what was going on and she didn't like it . . . not at all. As she grew more nervous, the sick feeling started up again in the pit of her stomach. She fell to the floor and held her stomach groaning . . . thoughts raced through her head . . . am I pregnant? Did I get food poisoning? Am I turning bulimic again?
"Mione!" Draco cried and stood Hermione up on her feet "What's wrong?"
"Draco! I'm sorry! I'm really sorry Draco!" Hermione started to cry. The tears ran down her face and she dropped to her knees again "I'm so sorry . . . I'm sorry" she whispered and held her face in her hands.
"What happened Mione?" Draco asked, smoothing her hair, comforting her as best he could.
"I don't know what happened!" she cried "I was fine and then . . . I don't know why I did it Draco, I'm sorry!"
"Shhh . . . Mione, its okay" he comforted and wrapped his arms around her, bringing his trembling girlfriend to the sofa to sit.
"I . . . after breakfast . . . I w-was walking d-down to g-get m-my books and my s-stomach hurt a lot so . . . I ran t-to the b-bathroom a-and . . . I threw up!" she cried "I didn't know what to do, I'm so sorry!"
"Hermione, listen, its okay . . . its normal to do that love . . ." he re- assured "you probably ate something bad or maybe you are coming down with something. But it's normal for someone to throw up if they are sick to their stomach"
"I know!" Hermione cried "but . . . it s-scared me afterwards . . . because I felt g-good about it . . . and I didn't eat lunch . . . or dinner . . . b- but I was h-hungry"
"Mione, you have to eat" Draco said sternly and looked deep into her watery eyes. "I don't want you getting . . . like that, again. I love you too much"
Hermione nodded her head but then paused and looked into Draco's eyes. They had worried written all over them. Could he be thinking the same thing I am? Because that is the last thing I want to happen right now . . . I am too young.
"Draco" Hermione began, and looked down at the floor "What if . . . what if I'm pregnant?" she asked.
Draco's face flushed, and he swallowed hard. Those were obviously the words he didn't want to hear. He clenched his jaw and looked down at the floor. Then back up to Hermione and raised her chin so she was looking into his stormy eyes.
"Well" he begin "if you are, then I promise you that I will be there, every step of the way" he whispered "do you want to test it to see or something?" he asked, "to make sure"
"Yes . . . but tomorrow" she sighed and hugged Draco tightly "I love you Draco Malfoy, I love you soo much," she cried and buried her face into his chest.
"I love you too Mione" he whispered and planted a kiss on top of her head. He felt something fall down is cheek. Something warm and moist. His vision was blurred and he scrunched his eyes shut and opened them again. Tears. He was crying. He, Draco Malfoy, who had never cried in his life for or about anything, was crying.

Hermione awoke the next morning in her bed, tangled up with Draco. She had a gut feeling that she was pregnant . . . but was not totally sure. She laid there and thought to herself, asking herself questions 'Why me? I am only seventeen and I am still in school. How could I have been so stupid to not use any means of protection or any charms? I love Draco but, a baby right now is too much . . . we aren't even married and . . . it would ruin everything'
"Awake" a raspy voice asked. Hermione looked up and weakly smiled at Draco.
"Somewhat" she whispered. "I'm going to go take that test thing"
"Okay love" he whispered and kissed her forehead "Just remember, I will always be there for you, no matter what happens"
~*~*~
"How much longer?" Draco whined, looking at the boiling cauldron "I can't take this anymore Mione, we need to know"
"Calm yourself love" Hermione said soothingly, ""you're more nervous than I am"
Suddenly, the cauldron began to smoke, it began to smoke a bright green, and then it changed to a purple, then a red.
"Okay, ready?" Hermione asked, squeezing Draco's hand.
"I think so" he replied and the two watched for the last color . . .
The smoke died down to a fluffy pink, then to a baby blue and seemed to go through all the colors in the rainbow until it stopped at orange.
Hermione and Draco exchanged looks of a mix between horror, confusion, and . . . happiness?
"That means . . .," Hermione whispered.
"Oh I'm sorry Hermione" Draco said softly and hugged her tightly as she cried into his chest.
"I'm so sorry"
"It's not just your fault Draco, we wouldn't be in this position if it weren't for the both of us not thinking clearly," Hermione whimpered. "And to tell you the truth . . . I'm somewhat happy about it being your baby and not someone else's" she weakly smiled.
Draco's eyes softened and heart dropped at those words. He kissed her forehead and hugged her tightly against him. Even though he was happy about her saying those words, about a thousand other emotions flooded him. He was going to have to suck up his pride and take care of needed to be taken care of. He promised Hermione he would. And Draco never broke his promise.
