-Hermione Granger-

"Will you stay with meeee" Draco pulls me down on top of him and holds me in place with a sly smirk. "Oooo"

"Draco we need to go to sleep"

"But I'm not tired" his pout turns into a dirty grin and I shake my head no. "I know how to make us tired"

"No, let me go" I grab his hands that are resting on my hips and try to pull them off.

"Why, do you not love me anymore?"

"I just told you I love you 30 minuets ago"

"Well it could have changed" He whines and averts his gaze from me.

"It didn't. And I'll stay with you if you let me go and go to sleep" I whisper and he smiles. His hands let go of my hips and I roll off to the side of him.

I slip under the covers and Draco instantly brings his arms around my body with a goofy grin.

"Nightyyyyy nightttt"

-The next Day-

"Why haven't you been talking to me?" Draco asks me as he enters the living room where I'm watch Cake Boss.

"What?" I ask, oblivious to what he's saying.

"You hadn't talked to me for a week and then last night you show up at the club, Why?"

I bite my lip and turn around on the couch. "I don't know"

"Hermione you can't do this. Everything you go through, I want to go through it with you. So please don't leave me out of whatever is going on"

I huff and turn back around on the couch to face the TV again.

"Hey! Hermione!" Draco says with a bite in his tone.

I flinch slightly and grab a pillow, hugging it to my body. "It's fine Draco, I'm fine" I say and bite my bottom lip.

"Well why were you ignoring me then. You had me worried sick! You wouldn't talk to me or see me! I though I had done something wrong!" He shouts, anger evident. I here his fist collide with the wall and I shove my face into the pillow.

"Please drop it" I whisper. Draco storms over in front of me and his hand runs through his blonde hair.

"Drop it?!! Hermione!!" He yells like a maniac. "You try me ignoring you for a week!!! Try not knowing what is wrong with the only person you bloody care about!! I thought I had lost you!!"

"Draco..." I whimper while looking up at his crazed expression.

"TELL ME WHY!!!"

"BECAUSE IM PREGNANT!!" I finally snap at him and start to cry. Draco visibly tenses and I bite my bottom lip, looking down to my feet.

"Your what...?"

I frown deeply and start to sob. "I'm pregnant..."

"But you're on the pill! Are you- did you lie to me about that?!"

I shake my head no and feel his hands grab my arms. I start to shake and I look up at him.

"I'm not lying! I'm on the pill! I don't know how it bloody happened but it did!" I cry out.

Draco moves away from me and runs his hand through his blonde hair, tugging on it slightly and cussing to himself.

"I'm not ready to be a dad!" Draco says, a little bit calmer this time.

"I'm not ready to me a mum!" I shoot back. "I didn't want this to happen! I really didn't!"

Draco turn back to me and I cower farther into the couch. He races towards me and I close my eyes, expecting something other then what happened to happen.

I feel his arms wrap around me and he picks me up from the couch, hugging me like his life depends on it.

"Hermione...I-" he stops and I feel him start to cry. His breathing becomes uneven as he does so and I bury my head into the crook of his neck. "I love you... you know that right?"

"Don't leave me" I beg. "Please don't leave me"

"No! I'd never leave you, especially now" I feel Draco kiss the top of my head and I close my eyes and hold onto him, never wanting to let go.

"I'm sorry" I whisper.

"For what?"

"For getting pregnant" I gulp and bite my lip.

"Don't be sorry." Draco pulls away from me and grabs the top of my arms, looking me in the eyes. "Listen to me, don't be sorry for carrying the best thing that's happened to us, ok? You'll be an amazing mother, I know you will. So please don't be sorry. And this was out of your control, if you could've stoped it, then you probably would've. But since you-" Draco pauses for a second as a realization comes over his features.

"Please tell me you aren't getting rid of it." I cock my head to the side and look at him with a confused look. "Tell me your not getting an abortion."

I gasp and shake my head no rapidly. "No! I'd never kill a baby!!"

"Oh thank god" Draco pulls me back into his arms and he breaths in my scent as I do the same to him. "We'd have to break up if you killed him"
