Ch.9-

Ron woke up with a pit of guilt buried deep in his stomach.

I need to see Daphne, shell make me feel better, he thought.

Harry and Ginny were already in the common room when Hermione emerged with Draco.

They all headed down to the great hall for a spot of breakfast.

Hermione and Draco sat together ad held hands, as they gave each other a nice peck on the lips.

Harry and Ginny were already starting to eat.

"Hey Draco, pass me the syrup mate."

"Yeah, here."

Hermione had piled three or four pancakes on her plate and was pouring gallons of syrup on them.

Ron came over just then and sat down next to her.

Hermione looked at him, groaned, and then turned away.

It was odd, she just didn't feel well, and Ron wasn't helping.

"Mione, listen, I'm sorry, I was just like, I mean, well, I thought you were going to try and take it out on me, and-"

"Ron stop."

Hermione didn't look so good, her eyes were red, and she looked somewhat peaky.

"No Mione, I need to get this out, I feel terrible about-"

"No Ron, seriously I don't feel-"

Hermione had abruptly stood up and clapped her hands over her mouth before sprinting out of the Great Hall.

Draco had been distracted when she stood and starred at her.

"What the hell?"

Draco dropped his fork and knife and sprinted out of the hall after his girlfriend.

"What the hell was wrong with her?"

Ginny was making an odd face and was turned the direction that Draco and Hermione had just run.

Ron was concerned and then laughed and shrugged it off.

"Maybe she's pregnant."

Everyone laughed and kept eating.

Draco was banging on the door to the bathroom that Hermione was barricaded in.

"Mione, open up."

He could hear retching and Hermione sobbing.

"Are you alright love?"

Nothing.

"Hermione, common, I'm worried about you, let me in so I can help."

The lock on the door clicked and Draco practically jumped inside.

He saw Hermione over by a sink with tears streaked down her face.

He immediately ran over to her and took her into his arms.

"What's wrong, are you sick, lets get you to-"

"Draco I think I'm pregnant…"
