It wasn’t supposed to be like this

Chapter 6: Petnames and Hormones

”Harry!” Harry just sighed and kept walking while Hermione ran after him. “Harry wait up!” Her shoes clopped against the stone of the corridor they were currently in.

Harry sighed in frustration when she finally came up beside him panting. She grabbed his arm to keep him from walking away so he stood there awkwardly while she regained her breath. He felt really uncomfortable with her, sure, he wanted to know why she had kept secrets from him but not right now, tomorrow or next week maybe when he had had time to think about it first.

“Harry we need to talk.” Hermione said once she had regained her breath.

Harry didn’t have time to protest before Hermione dragged him off towards the restrooms at the end of the corridor they were in.

Hermione opened the door and pushed Harry in. He thought he would choke to death when the smell of cigarette smoke slapped him in the face. Hermione too started coughing, She waved her wand and said something Harry couldn’t quite hear over the coughing but the air cleared and the foul smell went away within seconds.

A group of several Hufflepuff-girls stared at Hermione, all of the their facial expressions could easily have been confused with the face of a deer caught in headlights.

“What in the world do you think you’re doing?” Hermione almost shouted. “This is a school not some club where you can go to exchange bad habits! Your behaviour is disgusting, never in my life did I think I would ever be subjected to something so foul and disgusting here at Hogwarts!” Harry tuned her out after awhile, he was more occupied with panicking, what if the baby got sick, it was just a little smoke but what if it really hurt the baby?

“And don’t think I won’t tell the headmaster about this!” Hermione said when the girls ran out from there. Hermione sighed and muttered under her breath for a moment before she noticed the panicky look her friend had.

“What is it Harry? Are you alright?” She asked holing his shoulders.

He just shook his head and bit his lip on the verge of tears, what if he had killed his and Draco’s miracle, if that was the case he would never be able to forgive himself. What would Draco say? Would he blame Harry? He shouldn’t have let Hermione push him into the smoke like that, what kind of horrible parent would he become?

He didn’t notice Hermione frantically shaking him and calling his name, all he could think about was that he may have killed his baby. Suddenly he was forced out of his panic attack by Hermione with a slap. Tears began to cloud his eyes and his lower lip started to tremble when he looked over at Hermione.

“Oh for Merlin’s shake!” Hermione exclaimed in frustration before she started to drag the now openly sobbing Harry behind her towards the hospital wing. She didn’t dare to use a spell as she had read somewhere that some spells could affect the magic on the womb of pregnant witches and wizards.

Harry was outright screaming at her by the time they reached the hospital wing, something about not letting her drag him anywhere and killing miracles. She was lucky Harry wasn’t all that strong or large otherwise she would have had more trouble than she already had with getting him too Madame Pomfrey.

Once there she pushed him down on a bed and looked around for Madame. Pomfrey stood two beds down tending to something on Theodore Nott’s hand, both ignored Harry’s screaming and Pomfrey gave the Slytherin a potion before sending him on his way.

Harry had stopped his screaming and started crying when she finally came over to them, Hermione had tried time and time again to comfort him but failed every time.

“What seems to be the problem with Mr Potter?” She asked while eyeing the boy with a look that contained both curiosity and pity.

Hermione told her about the smoking girls in the bathroom and how Harry had completely closed off, Hermione was halfway through her monologue when Draco Malfoy burst through the doors looking like he had Buckbeak hot on his heels.

“What is it Mr Malfoy?” Madame Pomfrey said just as Malfoy ran over to them after seeing Harry crying on the bed. “Mr Malfoy, release Mr Potter this instant!”

Hermione was too shocked to say anything, seeing Malfoy hold her best friend tenderly and wipe the tears of his face made her instantly realise the identity of the child Harry was carrying. The shock was too much for her and her knees gave out, lucky for her there was a chair right behind her. There she just sat gaping while the biggest bully in Hogwarts kissed her pregnant best friend’s cheek.

“Baby it’s alright I’m here now, no need to cry anymore, calm down now baby.” Draco said lightly rocking himself and Harry back and forth.

Harry stopped crying abruptly and sniffed while frowning for some time. “What did you just call me, twice?” He asked looking up in Draco’s worried eyes.

Hermione gaped even more and Madame Pomfrey huffed when seeing Draco’s cheeks growing hot and red at Harry’s question.

“Nothing.” Came the reply and Harry started smiling.

“You can call me baby if you want, just not in front of anyone ok?” Harry looked almost hopeful at the prospect of Draco calling him baby and Hermione wondered when stress and shock was too much for the human body. Could she possibly faint from emotional overload soon?

Draco smiled and kissed Harry on the cheek, Harry smiled but shook his head. “Let’s start with me allowing you to call me baby and maybe later I’ll allow you to kiss me like that.” Draco looked somewhat disappointed but soon smiled again and placed his hand on Harry’s stomach caressing it softly.

Shaking her head, Hermione looked up at Madame Pomfrey who looked mildly irritated but without a trace of shock on her face. “Excuse me Madame Pomfrey do you have a calming potion?” She asked with a shaking voice.

Pomfrey in turn raised an eyebrow towards her before taking a potion out of her apron and giving it to Hermione. “Swallow the whole bottle in one go, it’s very mild since I’ve already mixed it with water.” Hermione nodded before biting off the top and gulping down the bitter potion.

When she turned back she saw Harry watching her with amusement and Draco with indifference, still caressing Harry’s stomach.

Madame Pomfrey cleared her throat to gain their attention. “Harry from what I’ve gathered so far you where having a panic attack, you where thinking about the smoke and how it could have harmed your child, am I right?”

Harry looked stunned but nodded in answer.

“Hmm yes, I can tell you now that it didn’t I ran a scan over you during yours and Mr Malfoy’s talk. The panic you where feeling was a hormone induced panic, your magic is not in sync with your hormones right now so your emotions will literally be in chaos for about two to three months from now on.

“Oh how nice, I feel so safe with calling you baby now.” Draco said with a small but still noticeable pout.
