Ron's POV
Hermione and I have been totally weird near each other. Harry still thinks we're in a fight, boy is he wrong! She just doesn't say anything to me, so I don't say anything to her. I'm not that brave.
We were partners in Herbology yesterday, and she totally acted different. She wasn't being her brainiac self, bossing me and telling me what I was doing wrong. Instead, she was quite quiet, and let me do everything. Even when the plant nipped at my fingers when it was supposed to be friendly, she didn't say that I was doing anything wrong.
When I walked into the common room today after dinner, she was sitting on the floor by the fire. Neither of us have dared to sit on that couch again. When I walked in she looked up at me, then threw her papers into her bag and went up to her dormitory.
Ginny still hasn't treated me or her the same, and Harry is totally confused. I don't know if Hermione's planning on telling him, but I'm sure not. I mean, it's Hermione! He'd never expect that in a million years!
Hermione's POV
I'm nervous. Today I was doing homework in the common room and Ron walked in. I didn't know what to say, so I stood up and went to my dormitory. Parvati and Lavender weren't in there, probably searching for Ron or Harry somewhere in the castle. They totally love them.
I stared at myself in the mirror. I was disgusted at what I saw.
There were circles around my eyes, from staying awake at night and thinking. I seemed to have gained weight, for my stomach was no longer flat. My hair, which had lost its bushy-ness, had gained it back over the last few weeks. I groaned and fell on my bed. That's when it happened.
"Hermione?" he called. It was the first time I had heard my name said by him in weeks. I stood up and slowly walked down to the common room.
"Yeah?" I said in a quiet voice.
I stepped into the common room. He was standing between the fire and the couch where it had happened.
He didn't speak, and was avoiding eye contact with me. Suddenly, Lavender and Parvati walked in and started giggling. I looked at them back to my dorm.
Ron's POV
I feel like an idiot.
I was standing in the common room, and a sudden urge came over me to call Hermione down.
"Hermione." I said, before realizing it was her name that had come out of my mouth.
"Yeah?" she said, as she appeared at the bottom of the steps. I was a fool. I had nothing to say! And there she was, standing there, waiting for me to speak. She was so beautiful!
I looked down at my shows, feeling like a moron. Suddenly, Parvati and Lavender walked in. God, is it impossible to get away from those two. They started giggling and looking over at me. I looked up at Hermione. She glared at them and ran back up. I sighed and went to my own dorm, before the two insane girls had a chance to say anything to me.
Hermione's POV
I decided to test it out. See if I had really gotten pregnant. I went down to Moaning Myrtle's bathroom, where hardly anyone ever went, still. Myrtle was singing to herself, and thankfully she didn't notice me walking in. I quietly walked over to a stall and closed the door.
5 minutes later, I ran out. Myrtle screamed something at me that I didn't understand, but I didn't stop. I couldn't bear to look at it, I didn't want to know. I ran up to the common room and up to my dormitory. It was empty. I pulled it out from under my robes: This was it. I held it up to my face, and the it read: Positive.
I was pregnant with Ron's baby.
