O M G. I broke into the BIGGEST smile this morning (which was good I needed it). Bc I saw that my 2 FAVE reviewers left me LONG reviews. I was "tickled pink" yeah don't ask, my Nana says it ALL the time.

RonFan- Don't worry Ali, your boy toy will be in this chapter... I hope. Oh I am not going to prom alone anymore. I get to go with my hottie friend Alberto (hot Mexican with a happy trail ;-) Yeah I am def. the envy of EVERY girl in my high school). At the moment I want a bf. Its just because I have been single for so long. The only thing that still kinda sux about prom is that I have no ride there and back. Yeah, one major detail that has to be worked out by next Thursday.

Stinkyirma- when you said "thank the little people" I laughed bc I thought of midgets. MY mind works in weird ways. I haven't had a teacher from Hell. I have had a substitute from hell. Her name was Mrs. Smith. She was about 300 pounds and she has the WORST attitude towards high school students. It prolly doesn't help that we make fun of her, just to make her angry. Wow I just realized how mean the pple that go to my skool are.. ::ponders this thought:: Oh and most guys with spiked hair are hott. Notice I said most.

Claire-125- ::snaps for new reader:: Yay! I like new readers. They make life interesting (not like old readers don't but u know what I mean). I'm glad you like my story. I like it too. :-D

Heartsyhawk- hehe u said oodles. Sry. I am WAY too easily amused.

Occasus- Ya know I actually think I can grant that wish. ::POOF:: (for later chapters that is)

EyEluvBOB-XX- I am sorry if he annoyed you. But I am glad you like it now.

EyEluvBOB-XX- Thank you Thank you.

JeanMarie- That's not going to be her only run in with the rapist. He will be back and we will get to se his face! But first I need to think of a name for him.

MidnightPrincess- My thoughts exactly. Its not going to happen all at once though.

MidnightPrincess- I understand. I wanted him tolerable. I can't write mean things because I am nice like that.

average jane- Ok.

THANK YOU ALL!!! This chapter is Dedicated to MidnightPrincess because I said so.


"Hey Draco." Hermione yawned, walking into the kitchen where he was currently feeding Deena, and sitting at one of the chairs around the table.

"Morning, 'Mione." He looked up, "You have an owl." He pointed at the small flying object.

"Pig!" Hermione exclaimed. The bird flew over and perched on her shoulder.

"That bloody bird makes so much noise. I can't believe you slept through all of that racket." He shook his head and turned his attention back to Deena.

"Pig is not that bad." She said taking the roll of parchment off of the owl's leg. "Anyways, I am a heavy sleeper."

"Obviously."

Pig flew out the open window, when Hermione was done with relieving it of its extra weight.

"It seems that Ginny has a big mouth." Hermione said, reading over the letter.

Draco stood, put the full Deena into a bouncy chair, and walked over to Hermione. "What do you mean?"

"She told Harry and Ron. Harry is fine about it. He understands my wishes for you to be that father. But, Ron, well, he didn't take it so good." She answered, her eyes scanning the parchment.

"What did he do?" Draco asked, walking behind the chair so he could read over Hermione's shoulder.

"He only tried to floo here, but couldn't because we are off of the floo network. He ended up somewhere in Africa. He made it back though. But, it says here that, that trip just ticked him off more." Hermione couldn't see it but Draco's face was full of amusement. "Stop smiling Draco."

His face dropped. "How did you know that?"

"Woman's intuition." She smirked. "That and I could see your face in the window." She began to talk out of the kitchen. "I am going to take a shower."

Draco shook his head. "You Mum is crazy, Deena. Absolutely bonkers." Deena giggled, at Draco's face.

Later that Day

Hermione got an owl from Ron, with some angry words in it, about why she didn't tell him about her new living arrangements. She decided that she wanted to tell him in person.

"Draco, I am going to take Deena over to the Weasley's. I really want to explain to them in person, why I didn't tell them." Draco was in the living room on the floor playing with Deena, who was laying on her Gryffendor blanket.

He groaned. "But do you have to take Deena, I don't want her to get dirty. Like that house, what do you call it?"

"The Burrow. And she will not get dirty. She is only 2 and a half months. How dirty can she get?"

"Very dirty. They will want to hold her." He shuddered.

"Draco Malfoy.." Hermione warned, in a voice that showed that she was not a force to be reckoned with.

"Fine take her." He pouted.

"I was going to anyway." Hermione smirked, bent down and picked up the baby.

"Do you have all of her stuff?" he asked.

"Yes, I am her mother remember? I shrank it, it's in my pocket." She bounced the baby around a little bit. "I shouldn't be gone to late. Bye Draco." With that, she Apparated to the Burrow.

Draco sighed she was so stubborn.

At the Burrow

"Hello??" Hermione asked, through the screen door.

"'Mione?" Hermione heard a female voice through the house.

"Gin?" She asked.

"The one and only." Ginny came into view, smiling. She opened the door for her friend. "You brought Deena, can I hold her?" Hermione nodded, and passed over her daughter. "Hey Deena, you remember me?" Ginny cooed. Deena smiled back at her.

Hermione laughed. "She has a memory like me. She never forgets a face, that one."

Ginny smiled. She was about to say something but was cut off by a yelling.

"Ginny Weasley, is Hermione here and you didn't even tell anyone?" Molly Weasley screeched.

"Sorry, Mum." Ginny apologized.

"Is that Deena?" Molly asked after she greeted Hermione and hugged her. She had just now turned her attention to the baby in Ginny's arms.

"Yes, in all her glory." Hermione smiled as her daughter yawned.

"She is so adorable." Molly took the baby from Ginny, and fussed over her.

"Where is Ron?" Hermione asked Ginny, after Molly went to the couch to play with the baby in her lap.

"He is outside playing Quidditch with Harry. They should be in within the next hour." Ginny led Hermione to the living room, where Molly was.

One Hour Later

Hermione, Ginny, and Molly talked about everything. Molly had tons of questions about Deena's father. Hermione had already told the older woman about the rape, and about Draco acting as the father. Molly just wanted to know Hermione was safe.

"Mum! Is dinner ready?" Came a voice from the yard.

Molly shook her head, and passed over Deena. "Those boys." She muttered.

Ginny and Hermione shared a smile.

Hermione stood. "Can you watch Deena for a few? I need to go make her dinner, and you can feed it to her while I talk to Ron." Ginny nodded, took the baby, and smiled sheepishly. "I am not mad at you, Gin. It was going to come out sooner or later."

Ginny let out a breath.

Hermione smiled. She turned and went into the kitchen. "Hey Ron." She said, nonchalantly.

"Hey 'Mione." He said as if he saw her everyday. Then, "'Mione!?" he turned and looked at her wide-eyed.

"Hey Ron." She smiled.

He ran over and hugged her. Though when they pulled back, his face had changed. "You and I need to have a long conversation." He grabbed her wrist and dragged her put out of the room, to his bedroom.
Ok the end of the chapter. Please Review.
