Hermione was waiting for Oliver to come home for dinner nervously pacing the bathroom. She had been crouched on the floor for hours and when she was done crying she took to pacing.

Hermione had discovered the horrible, the unthinkable just a few hours ago and now she was at a loss for what to do. It all made the sense the sickness, the weakness and mood swings. Hermione Granger was pregnant.

The problem was there was no logical way it could be her boyfriends. She was two months pregnant and Oliver had only been home a few weeks. Hermione was certain of the paternity, Percy Weasley was the father.

"Hermione" Oliver called from the kitchen. Hermione tried to straighten her clothes and hair before meeting her boyfriend.

"Hello Olli" Hermione greeted him with a kiss. "Hope your hungry" she continued as she pulled away and headed for the stove, "I made enough food to feed the whole quidditch team"

"Well good" Oliver replied, "I am famished" He took a seat at the table. Hermione served the food silently and sat down across from him. Oliver tried to make pleasant conversation but Hermione was sullen and withdrawn. "What's wrong?" Oliver asked with a sigh, "and don't even think of telling me nothing"

Hermione took a deep breath and tried to gather the courage to tell him. She closed her eyes and exhaled; "I am pregnant" she told him her voice barely above a whisper. When she opened her eyes Oliver looked as if the news had barely registered. He simply put his fork down and cleared his throat.

"Immaculate conception?" He asked sharply with a twisted smile.

'Very funny" Hermione whispered.

"Who?" Oliver asked before Hermione could say another word.

"I can't really say" Hermione answered. "He doesn't know not to mention you know him and it would make this worse" She couldn't tell if he was angry or amused. Oliver simply picked his fork back up. "What is going to happen?" Hermione asked quietly. Oliver looked shocked at the question.

"I assumed you would be getting rid of it" Oliver said, "I don't mean to sound callous but I don't see any other solution. You can't honestly expect me to father another mans child"

"No" Hermione cut him off "I don't but you can't juts expect me to abort this child, it's partly mine"

Oliver crossed the room and took her hand, "Hermione you will have more children, as many as you want, I will make you my wife and we will have our own children"

Hermione jumped up and headed for the fireplace.

"Where are you going?" Oliver cried from behind her.

"Out" Hermione answered as she grabbed Floo powder, "I need to think, I will be back later"

Percy was surprised to see Oliver at his door that evening. Oliver had told Percy earlier in the day that he would spend time with Hermione.

"You look rough mate" Percy commented as he ushered his oldest friend in. Oliver walked straight into his kitchen and grabbed a bottle of firewhiskey.

"Did you know Hermione cheated on me?" Oliver asked after taking a few sips right out of the bottle.

Percy nearly fainted at this question; he simply shook his head, hating himself for lying. Oliver took it at face value and went on talking,

"I have no right to bitch" Oliver fumed, "For months on end there has been a different girl in my bed every night. I have cheated on Hermione hundreds of time during our relationship but this is different"

"Different how?" Percy asked confused. Inwardly Percy wondered how Oliver found out about Hermione's infidelity.

"She is pregnant" Oliver replied.

Percy fell backwards onto the couch feeling ill. "Pregnant" he echoed not quite believing what Oliver said. Oliver nodded solemnly not noticing his friend pale. "And she is sure it's not yours?" Percy asked.

"There is no way mate" Oliver informed him, "the numbers don't add up"

Percy nodded wondering if Hermione had slept with anyone other than him. Percy wondered if this baby could be his. He kept his questions from Oliver, terrified the bulky career quidditch player would throttle him.

"Then she left" Oliver cut into Percy's reverie.

"Where did she go?" Percy asked.

"Don't know probably to your brother" Oliver snapped, 'I bet you he's the father"

"I doubt" Percy said truthfully. "Ron is very happy with Cho they have been together for ever"

"Yeah" Oliver answered not sounding convinced. Percy let his friend drown his sorrows in whiskey and prayed wherever Hermione was that she wasn't alone.
