Forever Yours
Chapter Sixteen
"The baby that almost died was you." Hermione said. It wasn't a question and Draco knew that. He nodded and retrieved a small bag from the floor. He walked over to the fireplace where Hermione was. "I almost died. But I was saved and no harm ever came to me. And I promise you," he said, placing his hand on her belly, "that no harm will come to this baby."
Draco Malfoy froze. Why had he said that? What did it matter to him if this baby died? What did it matter at all, and why would he care or promise that he would make sure no harm would come to the baby in the first place? It was all a mystery, but when Draco said those words, it felt right.
He wiped away his tears and looked at her. "Uh- we should probably get opened. You know, they're not supposed to stay opened this long." Hermione nodded, wipping away her tears. "You have to hold me?" Hermione said anxiously. This would be the first time since the break up that he would hold her and she would be concious. Draco nodded. He pulled the strap of the bag over his neck and let out his arms for Hermione to walk into them.
Hermione walked over to himand wrapped her arms around his neck. Draco placed his hands on her thighs and lifted her up, keeping his hands under her to make sure he was supporting her the right way. "Here, I need you to take a bit of floo powder." Draco told her as he stepped into the fireplce. Hermione reached out and grabbed a handful of it.
"Ok, when I say so, I want you to drop it and call out the Hospital's name, alright?" Draco asked. Hermione nodded. She had never used floo powder before and although she had read about the floow network, she was scared out of her wits.
"De- Demetria Center!" Hermione said, droping the floo powder. The two were surrounded by green flames. Draco couldn't think. He knew that Hermione had stuttered and that they would end up at the hospital, but he was a bit pre-occupied wondering why Hermione was bleeding down there.
"Hermione!" Draco said, his voice filled with worry. He looked to his shoulder, where Hermione's head was resting. Her eyes were shut and she seemed to be unconcious. Something had happened, but Draco didn't no what.
The green flames has stopped spinning around them and Draco fell from the air, with Hermione in his arms, to the ground. He groaned and looked at his surroundings. There were many buildings, though, the seemed to be abandoned. He struggled to lift himself off the ground, still holding Hermione.
The ground was made of stone. It was gray and cracked everywhere. There were fences that stood, curving around the old houses. Draco, for a moment, thought that he might well have been brought back to the 1700's. It was easy to believe that when you have no sign of life anywhere. Draco walked a few steps. He didn't know what to do. All he knew was that the woman he used to love was in danger of losing her baby and possibly, her life.
He remembered reading something about this, about when the woman would bleed, it meant miscarriage or something like that. That was about three weeks after he had found out Hermione was with child.
Draco sat on the green chair, in front of the dying fire, with his book opened in his hands. Draco had been so into reading about Pregnacy and certain situations that can be caused by pregnacy that he didn't here any one enter the Slytherin Common Room.
Pansy walked over to the blond on the chair slowly and quietly. She leaned over Draco slowly, looking at the book that he was reading. "...can cause pregnant witches to lose the baby..." Pansy made a nasty look on her face that only caused her to look like a young pig.
She placed her hands on Draco's shoulders and whispered in his ear, "Baby, you don't need to know this stuff. Why care about the mudblood anyway? Its not even your baby, and besides, if you want a baby, I could always give you one."
Draco jumped from his seat. He was ready to hit Pansy. "You don't know nothing." He growled angrily, and left the dorm, heading for his own.
