"FASCINATING THE BAT" (+18) *Severus Snape.

CHAPTER 33 🦇

_"I'm so sorry!...sorry...it was their moment and....I...I ruined it"_ she had been crying for almost half.

_"Please, Mione!...you didn't ruin anything!...everything is fine!...you should think about your baby...please, calm down!..."_Harry was evaluating the idea to give her a relaxing potion.

_ "You heard Harry! ... the only thing you should be worried about is my future nephew! .... don't make me put a spell on you, friend! .." _ Ginny, in her own way, tries to make her react.

Hermione tries to control her emotions, which were many, she felt that she was going to explode at any moment.

It never crossed her mind that her ailments could be pregnancy related. She should have paid attention to the signs. She now had to focus her whole life on how she would handle this delicate situation.

From one moment to the next she was faced with the reality that she would become a mother.

A being totally innocent and oblivious to her problems, was growing inside her.

A son of Snape.

A son they did not plan.

_"Harry, could you go get Mione a cup of tea?...I think she needs it."_Ginny wanted a few moments alone with her.

Harry nods and walks away, finally giving Ginny a chance to speak honestly with her friend, before casting a blocking spell and a silencing spell.

Hermione stares at her with a bad feeling and she shifts a little on the bed that she was still occupying since she passed out.

_"Very well Mione...the baby is Severus's, isn't it?"_with total ease she asks taking a seat on the bed next to her.

For the first time, Ginny can swear that she sees fear in the eyes Hermione looks at her with.

_ "Ginny.... I... this.... I...." _ She doesn't find the right words to give her an explanation that doesn't throw all her friendship to waste.

_"Herms...don't lie to me...I'm not stupid..."_ she pauses to sigh and continue..._"I realized a long time ago that you and he kept seeing each other and I also noticed that you were getting romantically involved with him... the sparkle in your eyes when you looked at him gave you away... At first I was angry, because you weren't honest... but as soon as I recovered my relationship with Harry and realized that I really loved him, I didn't care anymore, what did hurt me was that you didn't trust me... .neither before nor after...now they will form a family and you don't even feel confident to tell us...we will always support you Mione...and I didn't think I should repeat it to you."_the calm with which she expresses herself gives her absolute sincerity to her words.

Hermione is relieved to see how grandly Ginny took her betrayal. Seeing her still dressed as a bride and talking to her calmly, she feels like the worst person in the world for not having told her the whole truth at the time, what's more, not only had she hidden things from her, but she was also unconsciously underestimating her, and all for loving a man.

_"Oh, Ginny!...you don't know how good it makes me to know that you don't hate me...I wasn't a good friend...you're right...the baby is Snape's...but... .he and I....we are not together...."_And the tears begin to fall from her eyes again.

Ginny jumps and standing up, scolds her to explain herself better. For a minute she thought they were still keeping their relationship secret, but she didn't expect this.

_ "Don't tell me that bastard dumped you for being pregnant!? ... right now I'm going to look for him and I'm going to rip his testicles out with my bare hands!" _ Turning towards the door to leave.
