Chapter 9: Ginny's problem

No matter how hard Hermione tried to sleep she just simple couldn't. In her mind's eye she could still see Harry's words written on the page. It was just five simple words that made her unable to sleep. 'I think I love her…' it was haunting her, teasing her. Hermione rolled over and stared at the wall, not really seeing it, as her mind was on Harry. Hermione slowly drifted off into an uneasy sleep. As she tossed and turned between the sheets as she had vivid dreams of Harry and Katherine on their wedding day, laughing at Hermione, telling her that she was just a bushy haired, know-it-all who would never find love.

Hermione woke from her sleep as though she had just run a mile, her hair was pasted to her head from sweat and her bed was damp. It was still dark out side and the clock read 5:30 am. Hermione sighed to herself, knowing that she would never be able to get back to sleep. Slowly she got up and went to have a shower. A hot, steamy shower was exactly what Hermione needed. Once Hermione was finished in the bathroom, she headed downstairs to make breakfast. Hermione had just sat down with a bowl of porridge, when the door bell rang. Mumbling to herself Hermione slowly got up and headed for the door. Hermione opened the door to find Ginny standing on her door step, looking visibly distressed.

"Ginny what are you doing here at six thirty in the morning. I thought you would still be asleep." Ginny bit her lip and refused to look Hermione in the eye.

"I've done something terrible Hermione." Ginny said, tears spilling down her face. Hermione moved over to let Ginny through.

"Come and sit down in the kitchen, have something to eat, then you can tell me all about it alright?" Hermione told Ginny who just nodded before proceeding to the kitchen.

Once Ginny had Finished the bow of porridge that was in front of her, she started to talk.

"Hermione I am in so much trouble. My Parents are going to kill me! They will disown me, throw me out of the house. What am I going to do?" Ginny yelled before bursting into tears again. Hermione got up and grabbed the tissue box and gave it to Ginny who looked up at Hermione gratefully.

"Calm down Ginny and tell me what is wrong. I cant help you unless you tell me. And I don't think that your parents would ever disown you, or kick you out." Hermione told her. Ginny sighed and shook her head.

"They will after they discover what I have done," she sighed again. "ok so you know how Draco and I are together now? Well I never told my parents." She paused, not really knowing how to go on. "Well I am kinda… well…" she closed her eyes and took in a deep breath. "I'm pregnant." Hermione remained silent, trying to process what she had just heard. Ginny continued. "Draco is being very proper about it, I mean he asked me to marry him when he found out. But I cant see my parents being to happy about this. Let alone me marrying a Malfoy." She burst into tears as Hermione gave her a hug.

"just tell them the truth. They would be more mad at you if you didn't tell them. As for you marrying Draco, if you love him, there shouldn't be any problem. Your parents would just have to get used to the idea." Hermione told her truthfully.

"I guess you're right, and I do love Draco. Its just that I was hoping to wait a few more years before I got married and had children. I am barely 18." Ginny said sadly.

"I am ure every thing will work its self out in the end." Hermione told her reassuringly.

"Yeah I guess you're right as always. I should go and tell my parents. I will tell you how it went later. You're not going out today are you?" Ginny asked. Hermione shook her head.

"Nah I'm staying home today, I have studying that I need to do. Besides I was thinking of reading more of Harry's diary." Hermione told Ginny.

"You are still reading that? Well have fun. I'm off." She got up and gave Hermione a hug. "Thanks for listening to me and making me feel better."

"No problem. That's what friends are for." Hermione said. Ginny smiled weakly at her before leaving.

After Ginny had left Hermione went up to her room and grabbed the book she was currently reading. She thought of reading the diary, but after what had happened with Ginny today and her dream last night, Hermione decided that she should stick to her book. She headed down to the lounge and sat on her couch, opened her book and began to read. Hermione quickly got so absorbed in her book that she didn't hear her doorbell some three hours after she had started reading. It wasn't until the person started banging on the door and yelled her name that Hermione realised that there was some one at her door. Putting her book down, she got up and ran to the door yelling,

"Coming just wait a second." She opened the door to reveal a much happier Ginny.

"Jeez I rang your bell some six times. I was waiting some ten minutes for you to open the door. What were you doing?" Ginny asked her. Hermione shrugged.

"I was reading." She said simply.

"That would explain it. Well I cant stay long. I just came to tell you that I told my parents." Ginny said.

"How did they take it?" Hermione asked.

"Well at first mum was angry as hell. Dad told me that he would have rather that I waited a few years but it was up to me. Mum got really angry at that, so I reminded her that she would have a new grandchild to fuss over. She seemed to clam down slightly. She is still angry, just not as angry." Ginny told her. Hermione smiled.

"Well as long as everything turned out right." Hermione said.

"Yeah it did and thanks for everything. I should be going. I need to tell Draco the good news!" Ginny called already halfway out the door.

"Bye." Hermione called smiling. As soon as she heard the door close Hermione made her way back to her room and picked up Harry's diary. It was only 11am, so she flipped it open and began to read where she had left off.

Well what did you think? R&R!
