I woke up under the tree to a kiss on the nose. I was wearing my softest tee and some boxers. "What happened? How did I get clothes on?" I asked the girl smiling at me from under my arm.
"Freddie you crashed hard after we, you know, so being the smart girl I am, I ran up to your old room and got you some clothes. I knew I couldn't get you inside and up the stairs when you were asleep, nevermind naked, and so I got you dressed and let you sleep here under the stars with me." Hermione kissed me, short but sweet, and then got up. "Now get up. It's almost time for breakfast and you need to go get real clothes on. I'll see you at the table."
"Mione wait-" I started, but she had gone inside before I could say anything more.
"Oi, Freddie. How did it feel? Was it better than anything you'd ever done before?" George asked me while we got dressed for breakfast.
"Sorry George. I don't kiss and tell." I laughed and threw a red shirt at him.
"Oh come on. At least tell me you used protection. Please tell me you used protection."
"George, I'm not stupid and even if we didn't and she gets pregnant, would it really be the end of the world?" I asked, realizing that we hadn't in fact used protection.
"Freddie, you're kidding me right? Oh my God, you're an idiot. Please tell me she's not pregnant. You're not ready to have a kid." He said with more intention than I had ever heard come out of his mouth.
"I don't know George. I don't know. I can't know for however long that takes. Would it be that bad to have a little Fred running around though?" I asked, hoping he would agree with me.
"Are you really going to try and tell me you're ready to have a kid? Is Hermione ready to have a kid?" He asked.
"I don't know Georgie. I don't know. Need to tell you something that only Hermione knows. Angelina kinda knows and every other girl I've been with does too, but I've only TOLD Hermione and now I think you need to know. Georgie, I didn't know last night if I was ready to have sex for the first time ever and now I could be having a kid because my dumbass didn't use protection."
"Gred, we'll figure it out. You don't have to go through it alone. I'm sure everything will work out. Also, I knew you hadn't ever actually been laid. You knew surprisingly little for how many times you had supposedly done. Let's go get breakfast now and then you can talk about this with your woman later."
"Thanks Forge. I love you."
"Mione, can we talk?" I said as everyone was getting up from their breakfast table in order to go about their days.
"Sure, but you need to get to the shop and I need to go to the ministry. Can you make it quick?" She asked as I grabbed her and walked her into a room away from the rest of the family.
"Mione, is there a chance that you're on any kind of birth control?" I asked more abruptly than I had intended.
"Merlin Freddie. How did I not think about this. Oh my God we didn't use protection." She said starting to cry.
I pulled her close to my chest and kissed her on the head. "Mione we'll get through it together. I love you and nothing is going to change that. We're going to be ok. I promise we'll be ok." I hugged her tighter than I've ever hugged her, kissed her on the cheek and wiped away the tears streaming down her face.
"Freddie, I'm not ready to be a mom, but I won't get an abortion and I absolutely will not give the baby up for adoption. I don't know what to do." She cried softly into my shoulder, snuggling so close to me it almost felt as if we were one.
"Mione, I will not let anything bad happen. We don't even know if you're pregnant and we'll figure it out. We're going to get through this, whatever it is, together. I love you and nothing is going to happen. If you're pregnant, which I firmly believe you're not, but I still think we should double check, then we'll figure it out Hermione. I have an extra room at the flat, we have 2 floors. We can live upstairs and Georgie can live downstairs if we need to. I won't let a little mistake ruin us. I'm here for you forever and always. Hermione, I love you. I'm in love with you. We're going to be alright." I rubbed her back and held her tight. I wasn't going to let her go through it alone.
Short chapter but I thought I'd be nice and let you know what happens next. There might be a new chapter in a few hours. We'll see.
