Chapter 1
A Happy Visit
*I can never be sure that Draco still loves me. Not after what I did to him. He deserves to know that he's going to be a father, and that I want him to be part of it's life. *
There she was standing at the gate of Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Scared out of her wits, a 23-year-old Hermione Granger walked into the school that she once called her home. Standing in the entrance hall she let a small smile escape her lips before she headed for the Headmaster's office.
Glad that classes had just started for the morning she mumbled the password and went to speak to Dumbledore. Just as her hand made contact with the door she heard a voice say...
"Please come in"
Opening the door she saw the owner of the voice. Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts and a lovely old man.
"I was wondering when you would be coming back to see us Ms. Granger." He said, with the usual twinkle in his eye. "And it appears you are not alone..." he added, referring to the baby bump that was now very noticeable.
"I didn't mean to come without telling you sir, but I just couldn't wait" Hermione apologised.
"No need to apologise Ms. Granger, you are always welcome here", this made her smile. "I think I should show you to your room and then you can conduct your business. I am right in believing that it is Professor Malfoy you have come to see?"
"Yes that is correct sir." He smiled at her and stood.
"Come with me Ms. Granger, and I will show you to your room. I am sure you must be tired after your travels."
"Yes sir, thank-you"

After Dumbledore had left her to rest Hermione headed for the toilet. She never knew why pregnant women always needed to go to the bathroom. But being with child herself now, she understood.
After washing her hands and face she put on a pair of pajama pants and a singlet, and climbed into the large four-poster bed. Her room was small, but it was still very luxurious, with a bathroom and tiny common.
................................................
Quite a few hours later, Hermione was woken by a knocking at the door. Still half-asleep she opened the door slightly to see Minerva McGonagall standing there with Madame Pomphrey, both wearing looks of concern.
"We heard that you were here Hermione and we decided that you need a checkup to make sure that you are feeling alright" Minerva said softly noticing that the girl was not fully awake yet.
"May we come in?" Poppy asked with a smile.
Snapping out of the small trance she was in, she stood back and let them in. She ushered them into the small common room.
"I don't mean to be rude but I don't have any tea or drink here I'm sorry" she said with a slightly anxious look on her face.
"There is no need to worry yourself about tea, I cam to make sure you were in good health." Said Poppy standing. "Could we please do this in your room, I would like to examine you as soon as possible, if you don't mind Hermione?"
"No, of course not. Please come with me." She said as she led the to her bedroom. "I didn't think you would know I was here so soon. I thought you would still be in classes."
While she said this Poppy had her lie on her back so she could check the progress of Hermione's pregnancy.
"It's 4:30 in the afternoon Hermione, classes have just finished." Minerva replied with a small smile.
"Oh... I'm sorry professor, I didn't realise I had been asleep that long. Though I must admit I do feel more refreshed."
The stayed in a comfortable silence while Poppy finished her examination.
"Well, everything is going well. The baby is healthy, you are healthy and there should be no problems through the rest of your pregnancy." She said with a relieved smile. "How many weeks an I exactly Madame, I lost count about a month ago." Hermione laughed softly.
"You are 27 weeks and 4 days." She replied. "Only 12 weeks and 3 days left!" She added excitedly.
"So that means I'm due..."
"January 30th" Minerva helped.
"Yes... the 30th..." Hermione replied, slipping into thought. She was bought out of her trance as Minerva asked if she was hungry, but the sound of Hermione's stomach grumbling answered before she could.
The three ladies laughed and Minerva said she would send up a house elf with some food and supplies for her room. Hermione thanked them profusely as they left and told them that she would be seeing them soon.
Author's Note: I hope you like it. More will be coming soon. Please review, and be nice, I stopped writing my last fic because of a nasty review so I'm hoping this will be different.
