Title: A Baby? Rating: PG-13 Word Count: 249 "We need to talk, Granger.

" "Forget it; I told you it was over." "I know and I accept that. It's just..." "Just what?" "Fuck, this is hard to say." Hermione finally glanced up from her papers. "What is it, Malfoy? Spit it out already!"

I know the timing is awful, butwe are going to have a child. What? A baby is on the way and I really cant handle being a single parent, so you are going to have to stick around for about eighteen years. After that, though, if you still want to dump me, I wont try to stop you. A baby? Yeah, I ordered one when I thought things were still going to work out between us. Hermione covered her face with her hands and slowly shook her head. Urr nuurs, she mumbled.

I didnt catch that, luv. She removed her hands and looked at him. She had a silly half-smile on her face. You are nutters and you are slowly driving me nutters. Well, thats the other reason we should stay together. Who else, besides me, is going to want you now that youre a loon? Hermione took a deep breath and released. Fine, I wont break it off. But this is your last chance, Malfoy. He nodded and tried to look sincere. Of course, luv, I wouldnt want it any other way.

And Ill go ahead and cancel the baby. Well take care of it the old fashioned way once the time is right.
