Chapter 9 Return To Hogworts.

The Christmas holidays flew by after that, and before they knew it was time to go back to Hogworts. Hermione, Ron, Draco, Harry, and Ginny, climbed onto the Hogworts express and found themselves a carriage. They spent the journey playing cards, talking, reading, and listening to their personal CD players. Thanks to Hermione they each now had one. When they arrived back at Hogworts they joined the rest of the students in the great hall for the welcome back to school feast.

"Hi Mione, how was your Christmas ?", asked Parvati. "It was great my Cousins, Uncles, and Aunty's came, and Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Draco stayed as well, we had so much fun", cried Hermione, as Lavender noticed her ring. "'Mione", she cried excitedly, "is that ?, did Draco ?". "Yes it is, he did and yes we are getting married", replied Hermione. "Oh my god, congratulations 'Mione", squealed Lavender and Parvati.

"This is so exciting", gasped Luna, who had just joined them for, "we have to plan everything", she continued. "Well I think I'll have a Muggle wedding in a church because that's what my parents will want, and always how I've dreamed my wedding will be since I was a little girl". "My chief bridesmaid will be responsible for organising my hen night/party to which you are all invited". "What's a hen party ?", asked Susan who was joining them from the Hufflepuff table. "Yes 'Mione what's a hen party ?", asked Luna, Ginny, Lavender and Parvati, "A hen party is something you have to remember and celebrate your last night of freedom before getting married. It marks the end of being offically 'single', and enjoyed as a girls night out. Traditionally it is the last girls ngith out – men are not allowed at hen parties", Hermione explained. "wow 'Mione sounds fun", said Padma who had finished eating and was joining them from the Ravenclaw table to catch up on the gossip. "The men go a stag do instead, you see the men are known as stags and the women are known as hens, hence the names hen and stag parties". Once they had finished dinner they all headed to the Gryffindor common room together to continue gossiping.

That night Hermione couldn't stop thinking about Draco, and over in the Slytherin dungeon he couldn't get her off his mind either. Draco decided he wanted to be with her before he went to sleep. He crept out of bed walked out of the Slytherin Dungeon and over to Gryffindor Tower. When he got there he used the password "Godric Bravo" and entered. The common room was empty as being 11:30 PM all the Gryffindors were in their dormitories. He took the left stair case and climbed up to Hermione's dormitory. Hearing soft footsteps Hermione stirred, "Draco", she murmured softly, "is that you?". "'Mione it's me", he whispered, "I want to show you something".

Hermione leapt out of bed and stood by Draco – he breathed her beauty in. Her hair tumbled over her shoulders in thick brown curls, her eyes sparkled like pools of chocolate, and she had a wonderful figure slim but curvy with a full bust. Hermione wore a long white satin night-gown which showed her figure but left enough to keep Draco's imagination working overtime. "You're beautiful my darling, lets go for a walk", he said softly. Hermione ran to get a coat and some shoes, and then taking Draco's hand the young couple walked from Gryffindor Tower to the gardens. The snow glistened on the ground and the night sky sparkled like diamonds. For awhile they just walked in silence, then Hermione said "this scene is so beautiful, so romantic, I love you Draco". "I love you too", he whispered as they began kissing.

Hermione shivered in the cold air, moved closer to Draco, and kissed him more passionately. He trembled with pleasure and his fingers through Hermione's hair. "Mione", he murmured, "I need and ache for you". She responded by stroking his hair, and he caressed her shoulder. "Lets go in now Draco, it's freezing", "ok darling" he replied as he hummed Evergreen by the Muggle band Westlife. Keeping hold of Hermione's hand Draco led her to the room of requirement. "Draco what are we doing here, she asked puzzled. "sshh", he hissed in response.

They entered the room of requirement and continued kissing. With each kiss their longing for each other grew, and each kiss got more and more passionate and intense. Eventually they could stand it no longer and slowly they begun to undress each other, and used their hands and lips to explore each others bodies. They groaned in pleasure wanting to stop, but wanting to go on, so slowly Draco slid his hands all over Hermione and kissing in between. He then slid his hand up her thigh and begun to play with her sensitive areas, she was delighted and began to grow moist in response. Hermione grabbed Draco's manhood and began stroking it – in response he grew very hard. They continued to explore each other until they could stand it no longer, they're passion and the pleasure was too much for them. Draco climbed on top Hermione and slowly he slid into her. They both groaned in pleasure their passion uniting them as one, their love for each other being expressed in the most expressional and passionate way possible.

3 months later Hermione awoke feeling terrible she felt nauseous, her breasts felt tender, she hadn't menstruated in 2 months and she kept throwing up. She was also feeling a lot more tired than usual. Oh no she thought 'what if ?', she was sure she was but was too scared to confirm it as she was frightened of what having a baby would mean, and more importantly she was frightened of what Draco would say. Just then she felt like she was going to throw up again, she dashed into the bathroom and threw up right away. She knew she would have to do the test but was too frightened what if it was positive ?. She went back to her dormitory and began to cry, what was she going to do. Luckily it was Sunday and there were no classes today, and she had naturally done all her homework. "Mione", called two voices "are you ok ?", "no", she said crying even more.

"What's up 'Mione", said Ginny and Luna giving her a big hug. "It's well Draco and I have taken our relationship a bit further, well in fact a lot further", Hermione explained in between sobs, "and well now everything's ruined I think I ". "Oh 'Mione", said Luna soothingly "you're not are you ?". "I – I- I don't know for sure but I'm sure I am", sobbed Hermione. "'Mione you've got to find out for sure so you can decide what to do", said Ginny wisely. "Well I know that if I am I want to keep it, but what about Draco?, he'll hate this we're too young to be parents, he'll be so angry". "If he loves you 'Mione it wont change anything he'll understand these things happen", said Ginny. "Ok lets get a testing kit", said Luna getting organised, "I've got one already but I've been to scared to use it, I suppose it's now or never so here goes".

Hermione disappeared into the bathroom and emerged 5 minutes later, "and now we wait for it to tell us the result", she said nervously. She was shaking so much that she could barely hold the testing kit, Ginny took it from her and eyes widened in shock as the little pink line appeared. The test was positive, and Ginny couldn't believe it here was Hermione 17 and the clever one yet she was the first to become pregnant from the whole group of friends. "Mione", she said softly "it's positive you are pregnant, congratulations", continued Ginny as Hermione burst into tears. "Come on 'Mione you can still do your NEWT's and all the other things you want to do, Draco is rich enough and if he loves you he'll understand, you've got to tell him", said Luna softly and patiently.

Draco was in the great hall just sitting down to breakfast when Hermione came running in. "Draco I need to talk to you can we go somewhere private ?", "sure what's up 'Mione ?", he asked. "I just have to tell you something important that's she told him. As soon as they reached the room of requirement, she opened the door and ushered him in. "Draco that night 3 months ago was magical but something happened that night something that will affect us both, I well I, everything's ruined now", she sobbed as more tears ran down her face. Slowly Draco realised what she was saying "oh my darling 'Mione, a baby, we're having a baby! ", he cried in excitement "this is wonderful". "Your not angry ?", she asked, "darling no I love so much nothing will ever change that, and I wanted to have children with you one day, I just didn't expect it be so soon". "Come on 'Mione lets go and finish breakfast we must look after the baby as well now". Draco's face was lit up and he was so excited. "Off course after breakfast we'll ask Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Luna to be godparents", he said excitedly.

Hand in hand they walked back to the great hall and had breakfast together. As soon as they finished Draco stood up and said, "come on 'Mione lets go and find Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Luna" and tell them our wonderful news. They found Harry, Ron, and Ginny at Gryffindor Qudditich practice, and Luna was in the library. They waited until Harry, Ron, and Ginny had finished Qudditich practice and then told them the news. Ginny and Luna having known already off course just said "you did the right thing 'Mione", Draco realising that they already knew said "thanks girls for being there when 'Mione needed you". Harry and Ron were surprised but delighted for them, "that's wonderful 'Mione, Draco", they said happily. "Well Hermione and I were wondering if the four of you would like to be Godparents to our child when he or she is born", Draco asked them "we'd be delighted to accept", said Harry enthausiastically. After that Draco bought everyone a drink and an ice-cream in Hogesmeade to celebrate and he and Hermione got the feeling that the year ahead was going to be good, busy but good.
