LUNA POV

It was the tomorrow that Luna had been waiting for. She was gathered with Ginny and Hermione in a locked room. But just to be sure that nobody was listening in on the conversation Luna had asked Hermione to cast something so that they couldn't be overheard. As Hermione used a Muffliato spell, Luna wondered if she had any important secrets of her own.

"What did you want to say?" Ginny asked. Her friends both looked concerned and yet intrigued at the same time.

Luna cleared her throat and announced, in a low voice "I think that I might be pregnant". Her eyes glowed with intensity, of the huge secret that she was telling them.

"WHAT?" Ginny and Hermione screamed in unison. They both looked completely baffled and their mouths formed the largest O's.

"I might be pregnant" Luna repeated slowly, as if she were explaining the concept to 5-year olds.

"We heard that, but its hard to believe. I mean, Luna! I could believe Lavender or another silly girl but.." Ginny babbled on. Hermione closed her mouth but still looked shocked and retrieved a heavy book from a pile.

The title was "100 Useful Potions For a Typical Teenage Girl". Hermione explained "I got this and it looked good, but when I started browsing through it, nothing was what I needed. Beauty Potions and stuff like that. But I was interested when it had potions for things 'typical teenage girls' shouldn't be doing". Luna's book-crazy friend turned red and shook her head.

Hermione looked very disapprovingly at Luna. It rather looked like Professor McGonagall's stare.

"I didn't mean to. I was drunk at the time.. I can't really remember" Luna explained. Hermione went back to her book and started flipping through the pages.

"Right here. Pregnancy Potion". Ginny peeked in the book and said "It takes an hour to make, but the ingredients are pretty simple".

"All right. Let's do it" Luna dictated.

1 hour later

It hadn't been easy to secretly make a potion in one hour and gather ingredients without anyone else knowing, but they had done it. Good thing it was only a small potion. Luna would still be thankful for her friend's help though. Even more so if it turned out that she wasn't pregnant after all.

"Your supposed to drink it. If your stomach turns blue it means your pregnant. If it turns orange, we won't speak of it ever again" Ginny explained. Hermione poured the potion onto a drinking glass.

"How long until it turns blue or orange?" Luna inquired. "Instantly" Hermione answered and gave her the drinking glass filled with potion. No, not a potion. Her future, if she turned out pregnant.

Luna looked nervously at the glass she was holding. She drank it quickly, despite the horrible taste.

Orange. Orange. Please turn orange. Everything will be ruined if its blue. Just this once I want everything to go exactly perfect, and to go orange! Gosh, I hope we used protection!

After finishing the potion, but not her silent begging, tears welled up in her eyes. This was the moment of truth.

She lifted her shirt just a bit to reveal a color. Not the one she had hoped for. It was the brightest blue ever.

Luna lifted her shirt to see her whole stomach. It was all blue. The most sickliest and her most hated color ever now. She quickly put her shirt down to try and cover the blue up.

I. Am. Going. To. Kill. Draco. Friggin'. Malfoy.

The tears that she had been holding back were all over her face now. It wasn't all of his fault, he hadn't raped her. It just took 2 drunk teenagers to screw everything up with one simple mistake.

Ginny and Hermione comforted her. But not even the best wizard in the world could reverse what had happened. After all, Dumbledore was dead.

"So, who's the father?" Ginny had tried to stop the uncomfortable silence that had followed. But it hadn't helped bringing up the subject.

"Guess" Luna answered simply. Who could guess that she would have to give birth to Malfoy's child?

"Is he in Hogwarts?" Hermione asked. Luna nodded.

"Gryffindor?"

No answer.

"Ravenclaw?"

No answer. Ginny and Hermione were taking turns at guessing.

"Hufflepuff?"

Still no answer. Almost there yet, though..

"Don't tell me he's from Slytherin?!" they both said, a bit loudly.

Luna nodded. Ginny and Hermione looked sympathetic.

"Crabbe?"

"Goyle?"

Luna still did not nod. They were getting close, though.

"Professor Snape?"

"Ewww!" Luna and Ginny both looked at Hermione as if she were crazy at even thinking that. Hermione shrugged and muttered "Just wanted to make sure".

"Well it can't be worse than having sex with the new Headmaster of Hogwarts." Ginny said and looked quite relieved.

"It's worse" Luna muttered.

"But it can't be Malfoy either, because he's too much of a pompous pureblood for that" Ginny protested.

"We were drunk, I told you!" Luna blurted out.

"Oh my God, your going to be the mother of a future Death Eater!"

"Not if I can help it, Hermione. Malfoy will never find out" Luna said, and made her friends swear they'd never tell him. Ginny and Hermione still looked unsettled.

"So you'll be a single mother? Thats not very good parenting"

"If the author of this series could do it then so can I, Ginny!" Luna declared.

Hermione and Ginny looked at each other and made a face that seemed to say 'Our poor eccentric friend'.

Hope you liked it! As well as its not-so-late appearance.
