Draco

I walked back to the house with a sobbing Hermione in my arms. When I walked in Theo bombarded me with questions. I asked if I could have a minute with Hermione so he went to talk to his mum.

I took Hermione upstairs and set her on the bed. "Hermione?" I asked softly. "Why did you run?"

"It's all my fault!" She sobbed.

I was shocked. "Hermione, none of this is your fault, if anything it's mine, I wasn't responsible. Now, let's go talk to Mrs. Nott and see if there is anything we can do."

She nodded so I attempted to wipe the tears from her face. She tried to stop crying so I helped her up and held her hand. I led us downstairs and into the living room.

Hermione sat on my lap and Mrs. Nott looked at us with saddened eyes. By the look on Theo's face I knew his mum explained everything.

Hermione spoke first, "is there anything we can do?" She whimpered.

Mrs. Nott sighed, "you would have to completely relax, sleep perhaps, until your body completely heals, which can take days even weeks," she replied.

Hermione nodded. "Okay," was all she could say.

Mrs. Nott stood and kissed Hermione's cheek. "I will be back in a few hours with the potion," she said, before apparating.

Theo gave me a quick arm hug and pecked Hermione's cheek. "I'll see you guys in a bit." He apparated.

"I...I need to send an owl," Hermione said, getting off my lap.

"Okay," I said as she left the room.

Hermione

I walked out of the room and went to the dining room. I quickly scribbled a note and sent it to the Weasley's.

~*~*~

"I have the potion," Mrs. Nott said when she walked in the door.

I nodded and took the vile from her hand.

"This potion will make her sleep until her body recovers properly. You need to make sure she takes it lying down because it works in seconds. The potion will keep her Fed and hydrated so you won't have to worry about it. Just keep her safe," she explained. "If you need to wake her up use this," she said handing me another vile.

I nodded again so she kissed my cheek. "Good luck." She apparated.

I went to the dining room where Hermione was stuffing her face. She instantly stopped eating and dropped the food in her hand.

"Is that it?" She asked.

"Yeah," I replied.

She got up, grabbed my hand and led me to our room. She laid down and I covered her with the blanket. I handed her the potion.

"I love you," I said.

She looked at me for a moment before grabbing the collar of my shirt and smashing her lips to mine. I instantly kissed back. The kiss lasted a good five minutes before she pulled back.

"I love you too. Don't worry, ok?"

I nodded so she opened the vile and downed the potion. It wasn't seconds before she passed out. She lie motionless. If it wasn't for her slow deep breaths, she could have been dead.

~*~*~ (five weeks later)

It has been five weeks, the longest five weeks of my life to be exact. I have no idea how I ever lived without Hermione.

I was sitting by Hermione, reading her a book, when I heard the door open. "Draco?" Ginny yelled.

"I'm upstairs!" I yelled back.

Seconds later she was walking in the room with Harry right behind.

"How is she?" She asked.

"She still hasn't moved in the slightest," I replied.

Harry sat on the other side of her and played with her hair. I was shocked when she moved away from him and rested her head in my lap.

"Hermione, are you awake?" I asked, quietly, as I started playing with her hair instead.

She groaned. "Yes," she sighed. "That was the best sleep ever."

"And the longest," I replied. "Five weeks."

She opened her eyes and slowly sat up. "I was asleep for five weeks?!" It was now she noticed Harry and Ginny, but she ignored them and turned to me. "Is the baby okay?" She asked quietly.

"I'm not sure yet," I said.

"Do you have my new wand?" She asked Ginny. Ginny nodded and ran downstairs. She came back moments later with Hermione's wand. "Thanks," Hermione said as it was handed to her.

She slowly stood up, and surprisingly able to walk, went to the bathroom. I heard her mutter the pregnancy spell and waited.

"Draco!" She yelled.
