A/N: Elo, everybody! Here's the next chapter!

100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Draco stared at Hermione, pure shock on his face. "Viktor…Viktor is Hailey's...uhhhh…." He steadied himself. "Uhh…"

"Draco, I know it's hard to-"

"Just stop, Hermione. Please."

"I'm sorry-"

"You should be. Imagine keeping this from me-"

"I'm sorry! I just hate…I just hate the fact that Viktor is the father of somebody so beautiful and perfect, when he was such a bastard, and I just don't like to talk or think about it! I hate Viktor! And I know I should have told you, but it would have changed our relationship drastically, and I didn't want that-"

"You could have told me when I asked you the first time! We didn't have a relationship then."

"Yeah, but the thing is I thought you were a pain in the ass at the time, so why the hell would I have told you?"

Draco laughed. "True."

Hermione sighed. "I really am sorry."

Draco nodded. "It's alright."

100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Viktor talked with his Quidditch teammate, Stan. "Stan, I don't know what to do! I love Hermione, but she doesn't love me back, and now…and now she's running off with that Malfoy!"

"Viktor, if you really love her, you'd let her be happy, that is my advice."

"I do want her to be happy, but I want her to be happy with me!"

Stan shook his head. "Viktor, Viktor. That isn't the way you should see it."

"But-"

"No. I'll tell you what. You will find somebody else. You will. Let Hermione and that Malfoy be happy."

Stan stood up and left. Viktor threw a glass at the door. No. Stan was wrong. Stan was really wrong. Hermione belonged to him, and no one else. What could he do to win her back? He would give her one more chance. If she didn't come to him this time, she would pay, and so would that Malfoy bastard and her baby.

He would turn up on her doorstep with flowers! Yes, flowers, and if she didn't come back to him then, there would be hell to pay.

Yes. Perfect plan.

100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Hermione kissed Draco and soon after, he left. Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again. Hermione opened it, and there stood Viktor, looking his silliest in a tuxedo and a bouquet of red roses. She fought down her urge to laugh. She tried to look like she was smiling out of happiness, when she was actually smiling because she wanted to just laugh in his face. "Viktor!"

"Hermione! I just wanted to give you these, because I want to apologize for my behavior last time, it was really ungentlemanly of me."

Hermione took the bouquet. "Oh, this bouquet is lovely! Thank you Viktor! You're forgiven."

She was about to close the door when he blocked it. "Yes?"

"Come back to me Hermione! Please! I-"

"Viktor! We have both moved on! I have Draco, you have…I'm sure you have loads of girls who like you! Viktor, come on!"

"Hermione, I'll do anything-"

"Oh please, stop degrading yourself, get out!"

"Fine! But you'll regret it! I swear. You and your precious baby-"

She grabbed his throat. "Don't. You. Dare. Harm. My. Baby."

He was choking. "Okay, okay!"

She let go. "I swear, if you do anything-"

"I won't!"

"GET OUT."

Viktor ran out.

Hermione sighed. She was now very troubled. What the hell was he going to do? If he did anything stupid…she shook her head. Empty headed ass.

100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Hermione fed Hailey and watched her giggle. She would turn six months very soon. Hailey was growing up so fast! A few months ago she had been so tiny and frail, and now she looked so lively, healthy, and happy. Hermione couldn't help but smile at Hailey every time she saw her. And to think she didn't like her four months ago! But that was because she still allowed Hailey to remind her of Viktor, but those days were over. Now, she saw Hailey was just Hailey, not a reminder of someone she despised.

Hailey smiled brightly at her mother and began to laugh and shake her rattle. Hermione kissed her on the nose, and she giggled even more. Hermione loved seeing her baby happy.

Hermione wondered when Hailey would perform her first accidental magic. Like Harry before he knew he was a wizard, Hailey would perform magic without meaning to sometime soon. Babies should be able to do it after a few months.

Hermione continued to feed he baby, and her thoughts drifted to Draco. She had finally told him, and he had taken it well. She didn't know how he would react, but she thought it would be horrible. It wasn't, and they could continue their relationship, trusting each other.

Then her thoughts drifted to Ron. Ron would be released any day now, for he was now in very good condition. She pictured how happy Ginny would be, and how, maybe, it would affect the Weasleys' behaviors. Maybe the rest of them would be happier. It would be wonderful to have Ron back, even though Harry was forever missing.

She thought of Ginny and her baby. Ginny, who had suffered so much for the past few months, would finally have happiness fill her life. Ron would be back, she had a wonderful boyfriend, and she would have a baby. She sure deserved one.

Hermione finished feeding Hailey, and put her to bed. Soon after, she fell asleep as well.

100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Draco lay awake in bed. Viktor was Hailey's real father. How disgusting! But he couldn't see any resemblance whatsoever. Which was a good thing, because he thought Viktor was downright hideous. Draco honestly couldn't think of what Hermione had seen in Viktor, but apparently it had been something good enough to last a couple of months.

Draco shook his head. Oh well. It was all over now anyway, and now that he knew, he could continue his relationship with Hermione without any doubts.

But there was one thought that made him feel guilty. Was the whole purpose of starting this relationship with Hermione to find out who Hailey's father was? Was that the only reason?

Draco rejected it vehemently. No. NO. NO. Yes. Yes. No. Yes. Draco sighed. He would have to confess this to Hermione.

100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Viktor sat on a park bench, plotting his revenge, and being angry. Very angry. She had rejected him a second time. It was unacceptable, and it was about time to do something about it! But he still didn't know what the hell he could do.

He could kill Draco and Hailey, but he would get sued. He could force Hermione to marry him, but…he would probably get sued. Damn. Could he do anything without getting sued? Oh course he could! He should stop himself from being silly…But the problem was he still didn't know what to do, and he hated feeling helpless.

Then all of a sudden, he decided. He didn't care. He didn't care that he would get sued, as long as he knew that he had gotten revenge, and it would be something to cherish all his life. So what if he thrown into Azkaban? At least he had had the time to show how far he would go to get Hermione's love. She would see, guilt would drive her insane, and that would be his revenge on her! But did he want her to suffer? He loved her after all. Maybe the guilt would cause her to bail him out of Azkaban and they would live happily ever after! That seemed like a much more agreeable plan. And it would most likely work! So, all he had to do was kill Draco and Hailey, and that would be it!

Viktor laughed. Life was so perfect. He was going to end up happy after all!

100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Draco, Hermione, and Hailey in her stroller, were together in Dumbledore Park. Draco said he needed to tell her something, and Hermione thought, hey, if he wants to see me in a park, I might as well bring Hailey along! So she did.

They sat on a bench. "Okay, Hermione. It really isn't that important, but I just want you to know this, and please don't be angry."

Hermione frowned. "Okay…Well, if you did something really bad, I can't help but be angry, so I can't promise anything."

Draco sighed. "Alright then. I think…the reason I started this relationship was not out of attraction, well, don't get me wrong, I think you're really pretty, and I love your hair and eyes and the shade of brown-"

"Draco! Just get on with it! What do you mean it wasn't out of attraction?"

"I'm getting to that! Wait! Uhh…yeah. Um…I think the reason I asked you out was out of curiosity."

Hermione looked relieved. "Well, that's not that bad, is it? I mean, a person is normally curious about the other to start a relationship-"

"I'm not finished yet."

Hermione frowned at his uptightness and rudeness. "Alright, then….go on."

"I wasn't curious about you. I was curious about who Hailey's father was."

Hermione's face twisted into an expression he could not understand. "So…in short, you dated me because you wanted to find out who Hailey's father was?"

"Well…I…."she waited patiently for his answer.

"I guess."

Hermione tried to swallow the bile that was rising up her throat. "So…so what happens now? You know who the father is…are you going to break up with me?"

Draco looked at her; horrified. "NO! I just wanted to be honest with you, that's all! I have no intention of breaking up with you!"

"This isn't important, huh? That's a lie, Draco. This information is very important!"

"I know, I'm sorry! I-"

"Shut up! How would you feel if you date someone, and you find out they're using you to get information to pacify their damned curiosity!"

Hermione stood up and began to collect her things. Draco panicked. "Hermione, please! It wasn't like that!"

"Than what was it like?"

"I…I don't know, but it wasn't like that-"

"Yeah, right! This relationship is over, Draco! I'm sorry."

"No! Please! I really like you, Hermione! I adore Hailey, too! Come on, please! You're overreacting!"

But Hermione didn't appear to change her mind. "I am not overreacting, and I won't change my mind! We're done!"

Hermione Apparated with Hailey, leaving Draco to feel stupid, helpless, and very, very alone.
