10: classes again

"I was getting dressed and I was doing my hair. I forgot which cabinet I put my stuff in so I was looking for it. I opened one cabinet, this one," he opened a cabinet and I saw that it was filled with pregnancy tests, "and I thought...maybe you're pregnant! You've been tired and nauseous. So I think you should take one, just to check." He held a box out to me and I took it with shaking hands.

I peed on it and managed to go most of the 10 minutes without throwing up. When I ran into the bathroom to throw up, Draco followed me and held my hair up. He flushed the toilet and helped me stand just as the timer rang: The test was ready.

———
Hm

I picked up the test slowly and turned it over. Two red lines. Positive. Pregnant.

"Hermione! A baby! That we made!" squealed Draco, picking me up to hug and kiss me.

I nodded, "Draco? Put me down please, I'm dizzy."

He nodded and put me on the bed.

"I'm getting Madam Pomfrey, you really don't look good Mione." He said, kissing me before running out the door.

I was almost asleep when Ginny came in.

"How are you? Harry said you were sick."

"I'm not sick Ginny. I took a pregnancy test and it was positive."

"Congratulations! Where's Malfoy?"

"Draco went to get Madam Pomfrey since everything hurts and I'm dizzy."

She nodded so I asked her a question, "How do you feel? Like, nauseous or tired? Or what?"

"Honestly? I'm great! I barely ever throw up, only when I smell something weird. And I get tired easily, but otherwise I feel even better than normal! I love being pregnant!"

"You are so luc-" I paused to throw up, "lucky. I'm going to sleep now, if you don't mind." She shook her head and left, closing the door behind her.

It felt like I had just closed my eyes when Draco woke me up.

"Hermione, Madam Pomfrey needs to check you."

"Okay, can you help me up?" I asked just before throwing up.

He helped me sit up in bed and I saw Madam Pomfrey standing next to me.

"Well Ms. Granger," she started before Draco interrupted her, "Mrs. Malfoy... but continue, sorry!"

"Okay, Mrs. Malfoy, I did a quick scan when you were asleep and you are definitely pregnant. Just a week and a half along! Amazing that you're able to feel anything! Of course, magical first pregnancies are very different from muggle pregnancies. The second and the rest of the pregnancies are the regular nine months but sometimes in the first pregnancy, the baby comes out at just a few months, other times, it takes up to a year. So be warned Mrs. Malfoy, I have a few books about pregnancy that you can read. And come to me if you have any questions. You will also need to come down in a few weeks to get an ultrasound. And please come to the hospital wing if you throw up more than you can keep down or faint more than 3 times a day."

I nodded and she left. I turned around to try and sleep again and Draco climbed in next to me.

"Hermione? Classes start tomorrow you know. That means our head boy and girl duties also start. Do you want me to owl McGonagall asking if we can switch with someone else?" He asked quietly, rubbing my back.

"No. I'm fine. Now that we know what's wrong, I can go to class and do everything."

Draco just nodded before pulling me into a hug and flopping into bed. Then we just laid there, talking.
