"Why hello dears what seems t/o be the problem?" Madam Pompfrey asked.

"Well, Madam Pompfrey, I think I might be…. pregnant."

"Well, then, let me ask you a few questions."

"Ok."

"When was the last time you had sexual intercourse?"

"A month exactly."

"Have you been feeling sick in the mornings and tired all day?"

"Yes."

"Have you missed your period?"

"Yes, I've been waiting for two months."

"And who did you have sexual intercourse with?"

"Ronald Weasley." Hermione said motioning next t/o her towards Ron.

"Well, then Ms. Granger, you are indeed pregnant. I'll need t/o notify Professor Dumbledore and each of your parents." Madam Pompfrey said as she summoned them.

Onward to Chapter 9!

"Wait. You have to do what?" Hermione asked.

"I have to notify your parents. And Mr. Weasley's as well."

"No, you can't!" Hermione screamed.

"I can. And I must."

"Please, Madame Pompfrey, please don't."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Granger, but, I have to."

"No…." Hermione whimpered as Madame Pompfrey walked to her quarters.

"Hermione, what was that about?" Ron asked with caring eyes.

"I…. my parents…. they'll never look at me the same. They'll hate me." She choked out as tears began to fall from her eyes.

"No, that won't, love."

"Yes, they…. hiccup will."

"No, they won't. Who could hate such a beautiful woman like you?"

"Draco."

"True, but, he's an ass. An evil, vile, disease-carrying ass."

"Language, Ronald." Hermione scolded as she let out a small laugh.

"Don't worry love. All will be good."

"No, Ron, it won't they'll hate me." Hermione said so serious, that her eyes were piercing with fear.

"How do you know?" Ron asked, softly.

"Trust me, I know." Hermione cried. 'It breaks my heart every time I see her cry… Oh, Gods…' Ron thought to himself.

"Shh… Mione. Don't… oh come here." Ron said as he stepped closer to the mother of his child.

"You know I hate it when you cry." Ron continued. "And if your Mum and Dad don't like the idea of being Grandparents, then they'll just have to learn to deal with it. They'll be the biggest gits on earth if they decide to hate you, love. Don't worry." Ron spoke as she slowly calmed down and fell into a peaceful sleep in his arms.

"RONALD!"

Dun Dun Dun! Haha, I know, I know… it's short! But, what can I say? It's late and I thought I should keep ya'll waiting for what happens. Promise it won't be so long though. Haha.
