You guys can really thank Dragon Princess for this one. She was my muse.

Hermione soon felt Draco's hand snake around her back and pull her closer before he began massaging her back in small circles. His hands wandered, and without realization, a soft moan came from her lips.
As his lips pressed back against hers, she could hear and feel him moan too. She could also feel his cold hand as it made it's way up the warm flesh of her back. His tongue was warm in her mouth as it softly caressed her own. The world seemed to melt away leaving nothing but this one kiss.....
That is until the very distinct sound of a door opening cut all their fun.
Realizing that they were no longer alone, Draco shoved Hermione off of him remembering only a second too late that this was not the greatest of ideas.
Professor Albus Dumbledore stood in the doorway of the teens' room looking down at the new entanglement on the floor.
Clearing his throat he said, "Perhaps the two of you should come with me."
Fifteen minutes later, the two teenagers were sitting in chairs in front of the headmaster and their respective heads of houses up in Dumbledore's office. Each had their eyes turned to the floor to avoid looking at each other.
"Well, it seems that you two have gone so far as to betray our trust and logical reasoning," the old bearded mage was saying. "I really thought the two of you had more sense in your heads between the two of you than that. Honestly! This type of behavior must end immediately." And then in a tone that was lighter and full of amusement, he added, "And I've got just the thing!"
Dumbledore walked over to a cupboard and pulled a small orb that was admitting a blue light. "I've had this in here a while and I have wanted to try it out. Hope you two don't mind being the Guinea pigs!"
The dark haired man standing to Dumbledore's left decided now to remark, "Really Albus, I must protest! This is to be a punishment not a science experiment."
"Oh it will be Severus, just you wait and see."
"And just what does that thing do?" piped in a witch to the old man's right.
"Patience Minerva. You shall soon see."
Both house heads seemed to be a tad bit pouty at not deciding the fate of their own students, but they allowed the headmaster to continue.
"Now, Draco, Hermione, I want you to each hold out a hand."
Once each student had placed their hand out towards the man, he grabbed them and pulled them together so that Hermione's hand lay in Draco's and both palm were facing up. Then Albus placed the orb inside their palms.
The sphere sat there for a moment, when all of a sudden, the strange light it emitted turned from blue to deep red.
Four of the room's occupants sat gaping at the unknown object and its strange behavior while one merely stood there, his old blue eyes twinkling. There was a general gasp of surprise as the orb began to levitate and spin. It seemed, that as the orb began to spin, it began to stretch and get bigger.
And then, it didn't look so round any more; the sides began to stretch giving it a more elliptical look. As it kept spinning, the sides kept getting longer, and then, it began to diverge into a very oddly shaped spinning object.
About five minutes passed as the red spinning entity captivated it's object, and finally the spinning came to a halt showing that what the article had been was.....
"A baby!"
Hermione was not the only one who was surprised as the floating object before them stopped spinning, and the glow began to die down leaving a wrinkly pink new born.
"Yes Miss Granger," Dumbledore started as the baby sailed gracefully towards Hermione landing softly in her arms. "Your baby."
"What?" All four of the others in the room were trying to figure out just exactly what was going on.
Dumbledore laughed at the general confusion of the room.
"Perhaps I should start at the beginning," the old wizard said, ignoring the snort of "Perhaps!" that had escaped the elder of his colleagues' lips.
"This is my latest invention!" there was a general eye rolling of the members of the party who were also members of the faculty. "I have been noticing for a long time that children are all too often snogging in hall ways and in between classes, Regardless of the repercussions. Why, I have even heard of some young girls going off and getting muggle abortions! As you know that sort of thing is looked down upon in our society. Well, I devised this little critter to teach you kids some responsibility. By placing both your hands under it, this baby doll will have traits from both of you. Now, it is just a doll, but is charmed to act, think, and grow like a real baby."
"Oh! This is like the thing....." Hermione began and then stopped short, "What? Did you say grow?"
"Yes Miss Granger grow. This child will grow approximately one year every week. You will be 'raising' this child until she is six, so for six weeks. Each week you will be reporting to us for a 'check up,' but mind you, the doll has a charm on it that will tell us how well she is being taken care of. And if you guys fail to do well with this project, there will be consequences in your grades. You may go now."
As Draco and Hermione turned to leave, Professor Snape spoke up. "Oh, and Miss Granger. Shall we reschedule our appointment this evening for tomorrow night? And the one after that?"
Hermione, after pausing to listen to her professor, stormed out of the room with Draco in tow.
After they left, Albus Dumbledore turned to the two other professors holding out both hands, "Now, I do believe it was me that said they would end up together before the end."
A low grumbling noise filled the room as both teachers reached for their pocketbooks.
"This is just great! Just bloody Freaking great!"
"Draco stop, your upsetting it!"
"Stop! Stop? That fool of a Wizard gave us a bloody doll to play with for the next six weeks all because of on freaking kiss. We're teenagers for Merlin's sake, what did he expect?"
"I don't know Draco, just calm down please, your upsetting the baby..... er..... doll.....er ......um....."
Draco sat down defeatedly on the bed. So much had happened in the span of such a short time that he felt like he was scrambling to pick up the pieces of his mind and put them back where they belonged. What was more annoying than anything else was the fact that he couldn't think about what had transpired between himself and Hermione because now he had to worry about a freaking doll.
Hermione was just as confused as Draco, although had less trouble thinking the situation over. How could she like Draco? She had hated him for so long. He had put her through hell. Why, she couldn't even rightly call him a friend yet, acquaintance was more like it. What the whole situation boiled down to was stupid teenage hormones.
"Draco I'm sorry about before, this afternoon I mean. I guess I sort of lost my head. You know how those things happen."
The blond laughed, a little more nervously than he liked, "Yeah, no sweat. I mean this doesn't harm our friendship at all right..... I mean....." He had just realized that they might not be considered friends.
"No, we are still friends."
So she did think of him as a friend? "Good." Draco looked down at the crumply thing in Hermione's arms. "I suppose we ought to name the thing?" he mused out loud.
"What about..... Megan?" Hermione suggested.
"No too pretty. She needs a strong name. How about Bree?"
Hermione made a humming sound.
"You don't like it?"
"It's not that I don't like it..... It's just that I....."
"Don't like it."
"Exactly." Hermione thought for a bit. "What about Mabel?"
"Mabel's a fat name." "No, it's not! It means beautiful."
"Mabel's a fat name."
"Fine then! What do you want to call her?"
After a pause, his face lit up. "Calantha."
Hermione made a face.
"What?" Draco asked.
"Noting, it's just..... it's weird that's all."
"Oh, THAT'S weird, and HERMIONE is a perfectly common every-day name."
"You know what I mean."
"Fine!" Draco spat somewhat indignantly, he had rather liked his name. "Caitlyn then."
A moment of silence passed between the two before Draco finally spoke.
"So," he said examining the baby/doll thoroughly, "What do you do with one of these things?"
@@@@@@@@@@@ Alright, so I have to work 5-colse a.k.a. 12:30 am every day so this took a little longer than expected. I am going to try to get the next chapter up before I go to Mexico, but if it is not up by Sunday/Monday, it won't be up for another week. That is all for now. I will catch you guys later! Bye! And don't forget to review!
I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
