Chapter 3 - I'm sorry, Ron

6 weeks later

Hermione's POV

"Ron! Please stop, I can explain!" I shouted after his retreating figure. I had told him that I wanted to break up with him and he literally went mad. He was now storming away down the corridor and wasn't turning back no matter how many times I called his name. He hated me, and he didn't even know the reason why I was breaking up with him yet, if he found out it was because of Draco, he would hate me for the rest of his days - and I didn't want that, who would? Before we started dating, he was one of my best friends. I gave up on Ron, and walked away to go to the slytherin common room. I had promised Draco I would break up with Ron the first night I was in the Hospital Wing but then I had to stay in there for multiple days, and then when I could finally leave, I felt I needed to wait for the perfect moment.

I walked down the corridor towards the slytherin common room and knocked Draco and I's code, which we had set up in my last day in the Hospital Wing. There was a commotion then I heard the sound of running footsteps, then Draco appeared, he whispered. 

"Hide round the corner. I'm going to open the door and pretend it's a prank and no-one is out here and that I'm going on a walk." I did as he asked and hid round the corner. I heard him opening the door and speaking to the slytherins inside. And then he was there beside me and said. "You wanted to talk?"

"Yeah." I replied. "It didn't go too well, I told him I wanted to break up and he got mad at me and I didn't even have chance to tell him the reason so he could've been even more angry, if that is even possible."

"Oh dear." Was all that he said in response. I stood there looking at him for a moment, studying his beautiful and pale face. Then standing completely still, I drew him closer to me and I kissed him on the mouth in the middle of the corridor with quite a few people watching. When we separated, the murmuring started quickly and all the spectators ran off in different directions. I sighed realising what I had done, by tomorrow the whole school would know that Draco and I had kissed, why on Earth did I decide to do it in the middle of the corridor. Also, before I had even had a chance to tell Ron, it would have been so much better if he had heard it from me. Now he would probably hear it from some random gossip. That would definitely not end well but it was too late now, I had already done it. I would have to deal with the consequences of my actions.

"That was a bad idea Hermione." Draco whispered, his panic obvious on his face. And I nodded knowing that he was most definitely right. We should have tried to keep it secret for a bit longer, at least until after Ron got over the break up. Draco then gave me a quick kiss on the lips said a hurried "Bye." and was gone, down the stairs back towards his common room. I sighed and started to walk back to the Gryffindor common room by myself. 

I reached the Gryffindor common room, nobody knew in here yet, it was obvious by the nice smiles and 'Hi's' I got from people, rather than hateful stares and silence which is what I knew I would receive, when they found out I was dating a Slytherin. I sat in a chair by the fire and relaxed while I still could. Suddenly, Ron came in he looked around saw me and looked away quickly. I hurried over to him and said. "I know you hate me right now, but I need to tell you something. Please follow me." I started to walk away, by the sounds from behind me he had grudgingly decided to follow. I left the common room through the portrait and started looking for an empty classroom. When I finally found an empty classroom, I went inside and motioned for Ron to follow me. When he came through the door, I closed the door behind him. I was about to walk to the front of the room, when I got a sharp pain in my stomach and collapsed on the floor. Looking concerned Ron, ran to my side, crouching beside me.

"Hermione, what's happened? Are you alright? What's going on?" He asked, the concern for me obvious on his face. I could barely speak from the pain but I managed to get out. 

"Help me....My stomach.......The baby.......Our baby.............Save it........" I couldn't say much more, I felt like I was going to pass out from the pain I was feeling, he looked at me shocked and said.

"Our baby, what? Since when were you pregnant?"

"I found out in the hospital wing 6 weeks ago." I squeezed out. "For.....God's....sake...just...help...me" I said, breathing deeply between each word, I felt like I was drowning, there was no air for me to breathe.

"Okay." He replied, then he ran to the door, pulling it open with great force and he shouted "Help, somebody please get Madam Pomfrey!" I then heard someone running away down the hallway and Ron came back to sit by me. About 2 minutes later, Madam Pomfrey arrived and she ran over to me. She magicked a stretcher from thin air to put me on, and we set off to the Hospital Wing. I kept getting pains every minute or so. Then finally when we got to the hospital wing she put me on the nearest bed and started examining me. She finally realised it was because I was starting to have a miscarriage. She waved her wand and the pain stopped. She waved her wand over again, paused for a moment then passed her wand over my stomach and then she smiled. "I managed to save the baby." She said. I smiled. Thank God.

"I going to keep you here for two weeks just to make sure that the baby is completely fine. By then if I have properly saved the baby you will be starting to show and you will be starting to have symptoms of pregnancy such as mood swings, food cravings, etc. I'll leave you to relax now and you will have to start trying not to get so stressed from now on." She said, then she walked off to her office, leaving me alone on my bed in the empty Hospital Wing.
