Last time:

Blaise walked up and pulled the picture from Draco's hand. "You mate, have just found a clue" pointing to the name of the doctor printed in the corner.

Now:

Two weeks had passed since Draco and Blaise found the picture in Hermione's apartment. The pair had called the Doctors office almost daily, waiting for a position to open. At the end of the two weeks, they were rewarded with an open position as an doctors assistant.

Draco had used a glamor so he would not be recognized and was offered the job almost immediately.

Draco started his new job at the obstetrician's office two days later. The job was fairly easy, he simply followed the doctor around and took notes, or so he thought.

"Okay Mrs. Johnson, I need you take off your bottoms so I can check your cervix." The dorctor said to the woman in for her first check up. Draco's eyes flew open in shock, was he really going to get to see this. The woman went behind the curtain and came out wrapped in a sheet. She climbed back onto the table and laid back, legs spread wide. Draco couldn't believe his luck, he actually got to see womens secret parts and get paid for it. The doctor placed his hand slightly above the woman pelvic bone and gave gentle pressure as his fingers slipped inside to feel the cervix. Draco soon discovered he loved his new job.

It had taken two weeks before Hermione had finally come in for her monthly appointment,

"Good morning Miss Granger, How have you been feeling the last couple of weeks?" the doctor asked

"I feel huge, my feet hurt, my back hurts and this baby wont stop kicking me." she replied as the doctor laughed.

"You do look a little large for being six months, lay back so I can measure the babies growth."

Hermione laid back and the doctor pulled the top of her shorts down. He measured her belly and pulled the chart from Draco's hands. "Last months ultrasound showed the baby at five months, and your only slightly bigger then you should be for six. How tall is the child's father?"

Hermione closed her eyes, "I'm not sure, trying to picture him, I think he's around 6'2"." she opened her eyes and sat up, "Actually he's built just like you new assistant, same hight and weight."

The doctor eyed Draco closely, "I think the baby is going to take after his father in size, you should probably find out how big he was a birth – it's not 100 accurate, but will give you an idea."

Hermione shook her head, "I don't talk to the father, he doesn't even know the baby is his but I think he suspects it."

The doctor gave a small laugh, "I think you should at least inform him that he is going to be a father – if nothing else, you need to find out his families history."

"The father is from a well known family, I'm sure I can find out his history without informing him, I'm afraid he would never own up to the baby as he is a pure blood and I'm a muggle born. It goes against everything his family has stood for."

The doctor lowered his head, "I understand your position, but I need to know the fathers name, I have ways to find medical history on the family that you will not be able to gain access to."

Hermione sighed, knowing she really didn't have a choice. "I'm thinking of letting a friend take on the role of this babies father and giving him my friends name, The biological father is Draco Malfoy, but I don't want the name written anywhere as the baby will probably have the last name of Harry Potter."

The doctor knew of the family and knew exactly why she was trying to hide it. "I will keep your secret and only write the father initials. When you come back next month, I will have had time to search the Malfoy records for anything that may cause concern with this baby, but as of now, the baby seems perfectly healthy and you appear to be taking good care of yourself. I'll see you in a month and remember to take it easy."

The doctor handed the chart back to Draco. "I want you to go through the standard list of questions and take a urine sample to check for protein or sugar in the urine. If theres anything odd, come and get me before she leaves."

Draco nodded and began the questions he had asked a thousand times over the last two weeks.

He remained cool and collected, not wanting to blow his cover, but on the inside – He was a wreck, yes he suspected it, yes – He even expected it, but to hear it come from her own mouth had brought on a whole new feeling.

The urine came out clean and she answered the questions – Giving no answers that would cause concern.

"Alright Miss Granger" Draco said "Everything seems to be okay with the pregnancy and your next appointment is exactly one month from now at 9 am" Hermione stood and thanked the new assistant, as she walked to the door, Draco called out to her, "Miss Granger, I know this is none of my business, but telling the father may not be as bad as you think, I've been in a situation very close to this, and everything worked out fine."

Hermione nodded, "I just have to think about what I'm going to do. I know he has the right to know, but I don't want my child to suffer because of my stupid mistake – Thanks for your advice though." and with that she walked from the office.

Draco was mixed with so many feelings that he felt like exploding, It was confirmed – The baby was his, but she didn't want him around. She had been thinking of giving HIS child Potters name and letting Potter raise his child. He had to step it up a notch and figure out a way to prevent these things from happening. He continued to work through out the day but his mind was reeling over new plans of action, he was more determined then ever.

That night -

"She admitted the baby was mine Blaise – She didn't even try to hide it from the doctor." Draco said while pacing around the room.

"Calm down mate, your getting your knickers in a knot. We will figure this out. I suggest you try to appeal to her, show her that you have changed and are willing to take on the baby."

Draco took Blaise's words into consideration, he knew he had a lot of planning to do and he had to work fast. He went to sleep that night – Thinking of the possible ways to accomplish his goals. Tomorrow would be the beginning of Operation Baby Malfoy.
