Hermione woke up in the morning and when she turned from her side to her back nausea hit her full force and she groaned even as she pushed herself up off of her bed and ran towards the bathroom. She barely made it to the toilet before she started getting sick. She sighed when pushed herself to a standing position about five minutes later and flushed the toilet before walking over to the sink. She made quick work of washing her hands and then she brushed her teeth and used her mouth wash before exiting the bathroom and heading towards her bed. After she sat down on the edge of her bed she jumped when she saw Ginny and Luna standing in the doorway of her bedroom. "What are you two doing here?"

Ginny gave a small smile and walked over to Hermione and hugged her and then moved to the side so that Luna could hug her as well. "Mom and Professor McGonagall came and got Luna and me last night. We stayed the night in case you needed anything. Blaise, Harry, Draco, Luna and I all heard you getting sick so Luna and I came to check on you while Blaise, Harry and Draco went to go get Professor Snape and Professor Lupin. How are you feeling Hermione?"

Hermione felt tears fill her eyes and she blinked them away as she said "Other than feeling nauseas I feel just fine Gin. I take it that your Mom and Professor McGonagall told you and Luna that I am pregnant?"

Ginny nodded as Luna said "They actually confirmed what I thought."

Hermione looked at Luna in surprise and with wide eyes. "You thought that I was pregnant?"

Luna gave a soft smile. "The aura around you has changed."

Hermione shook her head in wonder and said "If you two would go out and wait in the common room I'll be out in a few minutes. I'm going to get dressed real quick and then I'll be out."

Ginny nodded. "Okay 'Mione we'll do that. If you need one of us just yell. We will make sure to tell the boys and Professor Snape and Professor Lupin that you will be out shortly if they get here before you come out."

Hermione gave Ginny and Luna an appreciative smile and waited until they walked out of her bedroom and shut the door. She closed her eyes for a second and then opened them back up and stood up. She made her way slowly over to her dresser and pulled out jeans and a shirt and got dressed and then grabbed a robe out of her closet and then after putting her shoes and socks on she took in a deep breath and let it out and then finally walked over and opened up her bedroom door and walked out and down the steps and into the common room. She saw Luna, Ginny, Harry, Blaise, Draco, Severus and Remus all turn towards her and she sighed and then gave a smile. "Good morning everyone."

Severus looked up from where he was sitting and frowned when he saw how pale Hermione was looking. "Good morning Miss Granger. How are you feeling this morning?"

Hermione sighed and said "I've already gotten sick this morning and I'm still feeling nauseas. Besides that when I got up to get dressed I felt dizzy but other than that I feel fine."

Severus nodded and stood up and took his wand out and walked to Hermione and then cast a diagnostic charm. He nodded when everything came back normal. He took out two vials from his robe pocket and took the stoppers out and handed them to her. "Okay everything checks out okay so far. I brought you a potion to help you with the nausea and I brought you one to help with dizziness. Now if at any point you feel like you are going to get sick or you just don't feel right let one of the Professors' know immediately. They all know about your situation so they will also be keeping a close eye on you. We all talked last night and at any time during the day we want Mr. Potter, Mr. Zabini, Mr. Malfoy, Miss Lovegood or Miss Weasley with you at all times. We need to make sure that you are keeping your food down and that you are not getting sick too much because as it is you are a little underweight. Do you understand Miss Granger?"

Hermione nodded after she swallowed both of the potions that she had just took. "I won't leave Harry's, Draco's, Blaise's, Ginny's or Luna's side Professor. In all honestly I don't want to be caught alone because of how Ronald acted. I'm really not ready to face him yet."

Severus gave a nod of understanding. "Mr. Weasley has been punished and he knows not to come near you. If he comes near you at all I want you to go straight to a Professor."

Hermione nodded and then said "Can we head to the Great Hall? I'm kind of hungry now that I'm not feeling nauseas."

Severus nodded and looked over his shoulder at Remus. "Is there anything you want to say to her Lupin?"

Remus stood up from where he had quietly been talking to Harry while Severus gave Hermione instructions and then walked over to Hermione. "If you need anything no matter how small send one of the boys to come and get me. I love you like you're my own daughter so I'm here for you. If at any time during the day you feel like you need to get away from everyone or like you need to sleep just let one of the boys know and they will let one of the Professors' know. You don't need to be stressing yourself Hermione. You don't just have yourself to think about now you have your baby to think about as well. Will you promise me that you won't stress yourself out today?"

Hermione smiled at Remus and gave a small nod. "I promise that I won't stress myself out today Remus. It isn't as if the boys or even Ginny and Luna will allow me to. I will take breaks when I need them and if I feel like I'm going to get sick I'll have one of the boys alert you and Professor Snape."

Remus gave a grin and pulled Hermione into a hug and then kissed her head before he stepped back. "Let one of the boys carry your bag because I know that it is always heavy. Now get down to the Great Hall and get something to eat. You are way too small."

Hermione chuckled and looked over at Draco. "Would you mind carrying my bag for me Draco?"

Draco laughed and shook his head. "I'll carry it Mia. You just make sure that you stay close to us on the way to the Great Hall. We are all going to sit at the Slytherin table for breakfast and then we will sit at the Gryffindor table for lunch. Is that okay with you?"

Hermione nodded and looked at Blaise and sighed when she saw that he was looking at her in concern. She smiled at him and walked over to him and put her arm through his. "Don't look at me like that Blaise. I promise you that I feel fine right now. As soon as I start to feel different you will be the first one to know."

Blaise smiled and leaned his head over so that he could kiss Hermione on the head. "Okay Mia but you had better keep that promise. Now let's go so we can get you feed Mama-to-be."

Hermione laughed as did Harry, Draco, Ginny, and Luna and let Blaise lead her out of the Head dormitory followed by the rest of their friends and their two Professors'. She looked over her shoulder and smiled at Remus and Severus before finally walking into the Great Hall since they followed them all the way down.
