Once they were inside the office McGonagoll said, "Thanks for the help. Ever considering coming back to teach even if it was for only a year or two?"

"I would love to," Hermione answered, "But I'll have to wait a few years."

"Oh why's that? If you don't mind me asking."

"Well that's why I'm here. The thing is…I'm pregnant," she said quickly

To say McGonagoll looked shocked would to be an understatement, "You're joking? Tell me you're joking. You are aren't you?" she sputtered

Hermione sadly shook her head, "No, it's true."

McGonagoll leaned back in her chair and said nothing.

"Well?" Hermione asked nervously

"Hermione I don't know what to say except I thought you had more common sense."

Hermione hung her head embarrassed.

"Our Head Girl is pregnant. Great example that sets for the other students. And the Head Boy is the father, he is isn't he?" she questions

"Yes," Hermione answered

"What am I going to do? How far along are you?"

"7 weeks."

"And at school…" she started muttering something to herself. All Hermione could hear was, "Teachers…not….good...boy…girl…same…dorm…private…knew…happen…thought…more…sense..."

Hermione shrunk back farther in her chair, "I'm sorry," she said

McGonagoll abruptly stood up and said, "Have you been to the Hospital yet?"

"Yes Professor."

"Okay when's the baby due?"

"August 11."

"Does anybody know?"

"Pretty much everybody in Slytherin because their parents know."

"What?" McGonagoll said

Hermione answered sheepishly, "Bellatrix…long story…only way I could think to stop her was to tell them. She found out and blackmailed me. She didn't want Draco to ruin his family name but I beat her to it."

"Hermione it isn't safe for you to be there."

"Where Professor?"

"What did Bellatrix say, exactly?"

"She said that I was to leave without telling Draco where I was going. She said I was to never tell anybody who the father of the baby was or to lie, but we kinda stunned her."

"Who?"

"Harry and everyone."

"Hermione it's not safe for you at Malfoy Manor. You have to come back to school. It's the only spot that you can have people watching over you unless you want to go to Headquarters."

"I don't want to go into hiding though. I'm useless in hiding."

"I remember a former Head Girl saying the exact same thing 18 years ago. You know where she ended up?"

Hermione shook her head

"It was Lily, Hermione. And if Pettigrew never betrayed them she would be alive. If you go into hiding until you get back to school I would be the Secret Keeper and nobody would know. The difference between you and Lily is you will get through this."

"I don't want to though."

"Hermione unless you come back to school you have to. If not for you for your baby."

"Okay. I'll go to Headquarters."

"Hermione I'm going to be frank with you, If you sat at Malfoy Manor Bellatrix will come for you. She will stop at nothing and you know that. It's not her family but it is her sister's and she will not let her sister's family have a bad name. You're doing the right thing leaving there. Now you need to go back and pack. Don't tell anybody there where you are going. As far as any of the house elves, portraits and anybody else knows you're grandmother is in hospital."

"Can't I tell Draco?"

"I thought you were bringing him with you?"

Hermione beamed, "Really?"

"Might as well. You both can help the Order behind the scenes. You can't fight as it is."

"No that's what everyone said."

"So that's why you weren't at the attack."

"I was there but Ginny and Tonks made me go home."

"Okay well we better get going."

"We?"

"Yes if Bellatrix is there you'll need all the help you can get. Who knows who she has with her."

"Okay."

"Do you need to grab anything?"

"No."

"Okay well let's go."

McGonagoll handed Hermione the pot of Floo Powder and Hermione turned and told her what to say then they flooed directly to Hermione's room.

"Where's Draco?" McGonagoll asked looking around

"Oh, everything's fine he was called to a meeting," Hermione said brightly

"Hermione unless it was to come after you. We have to go."

"Okay," Hermione lifted her wand and everything flew into her trunk, "I just have to run across the hall to see if I've left anything."

"I'll come with you. Let's grab your trunk incase we have to apparate immediately."

Hermione levitated her trunk and they walked across the hall. Hermione grabbed the few stray thing like the underwear or should I say thongs under the bed, and her red lipstick on the bedside table and the extremely sexy heels in the corner.

"So was that your room or is this?" McGonagoll asked

"The other one," Hermione said impishly

"Ah, thought so."

They heard footsteps outside the two froze hands gripping their wands but they died away.

"Come on, let's go."

"Okay I have to tell Draco to meet me there. How though if anybody else finds the note…" she tailed off

"Here hand me some parchment," McGonagoll quickly wrote something down and then handed it to Hermione

"Okay that works."

"If he doesn't get it everything will be okay. He automatically comes to HQ after anything happens anyways," McGonagoll whispered

"Reassuring."

The footsteps could be heard getting closer again.

"Go now," McGonagoll hissed

Hermione grabbed her trunk and with a pop was gone. McGonagoll apparated and the last thing she saw was the door flying open and 4 people walking in.
