The Hogwarts Express
"It's going to be weird not going back with you" Hermione stood in Hogsmeade station, beside the Hogwarts express. Ron, Harry and Ginny where on board, leaning out of a compartment window.
"We'll write all the time, we promise" Ginny smiled sympathetically towards Hermione.
Hermione looked down at her stomach, she couldn't see her feet any more just a huge beach ball lump, that wouldn't burst for at least another two months.
Ron glared. "What is wrong now" Harry looked at Ron. Ron continued to glare and pointed towards the person who had just entered the station. It was Malfoy. Hermione lowered her head, wishing she could just apperate out of the station.
"Oh Herms" Ginny held her arms out of the window, Hermione walked into them so she and Ginny could hug. "I promise as soon as I can, I will ask mum to bring me too see you."
"Thank you Ginny" Hermione smiled as she stepped back "take care of yourselves you three, and don't worry about me too much, ok."
"Don't be an idiot Hermione" Harry laughed, "of course we're going to worry about you."
"Why bother?" said a cold drawling voice, from behind Hermione.
"Eat slugs Malfoy" Ron snapped
"Now, now Weasley lets not say things that can lead us into trouble, we don't need repeat on our second year now do we?" Malfoy smirked.
Ginny and Ron continued to glare at Malfoy, Hermione kept her head low still whishing she could apperate out of the station, and Harry on the other hand spoke "What is it that you actually want ferret features?"
"I came to say goodbye is that a crime now?"
"Goodbye then" Ron snapped
"Not to you Weasley. But if your going to miss me I suppose we could always give each other a goodbye hug" Malfoy held out his arms and pouted ever so slightly. Ron looked sickened by the much thought.
"No?" Malfoy lowered his arms and grinned, "You disappoint me"
"Shove off Malfoy" Ginny spat at him.
"I will don't worry, I just want a word with Granger here" Malfoy jerked his thumb towards Hermione.
Ron and Harry opened their mouths to protest, but Hermione looked up at them warningly and shook her head. "I'll send you guys an owl ok?"
"Sure, ok" Ginny continued to glare at Malfoy.
Hermione hugged each of her friends in turn; "Bye" she smiled weakly. All three of her friends glared as she walked with Malfoy further down the side of the train.
When they were out of the gaze, of prying eyes, Malfoy turned to face Hermione. For a while he just stood there staring at her, taking in everything about her. The way her hair fell on her shoulders, the way her eyes would look at him as though he had no faults, but she had a fault a big fault, a fault that was growing inside of her. A fault that was now clearly visible.
"Err... Draco?" Hermione looked at him curiously.
"What?" he snapped, shaking his head, as though he'd just woken from a dream?
"You wanted to say something to me?"
"Oh yeah.right" Malfoy stood up strait. "I just want to say." come on say it, say it goddamn it say it.
Hermione looked curiously at him, trying too looking him in the eye, but his eyes where looking everywhere but at her. "Yes" she said cautiously please Draco don't get on that train please, please.PLEASE!
"I just wanted to say goodbye and no hard feelings" you idiot why didn't you say it? He held out his hand towards her.
Hermione stared at his hand for a few seconds, and then slapped it. Malfoy recoiled his hand "What was th.?"
"NO HARD FEELINGS?" she yelled him "NO HARD FEELINGS, DRACO I'M STOOD HERE, I'M INFRONT OF YOU, OPEN YOUR EYES!"
"WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME HERMIONE?" Malfoy yelled back at her. People all around them, began to look in their direction, curious to what all the commotion was about.
Hermione spoke again but this time her voice lower so as not to attract any more attention, "Draco, I want you to stay, I want you to stay with us"
"Us?" he asked sticking his nose slightly in the air.
"Yes Draco, us, me and your child."
"That thing is not mine!" he spat at her
"Draco.? This child is yours."
"I want nothing to do with that. that thing or you"
They both stood there in silence for what felt like centuries.
"What?" tears began to swell in Hermione's eyes
"You heard me" Malfoy spoke coldly. He turned his back on her and began to walk towards the train "that child has nothing to do with me, and the same goes for you."
"It's going to be weird not going back with you" Hermione stood in Hogsmeade station, beside the Hogwarts express. Ron, Harry and Ginny where on board, leaning out of a compartment window.
