Draco Malfoy:

I'm sitting in the dining room, while the doctor attends to Savanna.

She was asleep when he arrived, and I felt bad that she had to be awoken in that manner.

She threw up again in the early morning. I hate the fact that she woke up and had to do that.

My mother is the only adult at the house right now. My father went to fetch the latest newspapers in town. And Savanna's parents went shopping for clothes.

She sits across from me at the table.

"What do you suppose she's sick with?" I ask.

She shrugs, "Food poisoning? Stomach virus? Influenza? Poor thing."

"I wouldn't be surprised if she's just shaken up from all the craziness. It's a lot to handle."

She nods, "I feel awful about the whole thing."

We sit in silence for a couple minutes.

"Would you consider marrying her?" my mother asks.

I scoff, because it's a stupid question, "I would marry her right this second if I could."

"How are you gonna top that promise ring?" she laughs.

"I'll figure something out." I say, trying to hide my smile.

I get up and head to the kitchen for a drink, and when i'm heading back to the table with my glass, the doctor is approaching us.

"Good news. Nothing serious."

I sigh in relief.

"She just seems stunned. Looks like anxiety." he explains.

My mother smiles, i'm glad this is nothing serious.

The doctor isn't finished though..

"She's not sick... she's pregnant."

I drop my glass. It hits the floor and breaks into pieces all over the floor.

I run up the stairs, immediately.

She's throwing up because she's pregnant...holy fuck.

I open the door to her room.

She's sitting up in her bed, crying.

No... she's sobbing.

"Darling?"

She looks up at me, tears trickling down her face.

I sit down in front of her, and she sniffles and cries even more.

"This is horrible timing." she says, "I'm so happy Draco. I'm so happy it hurts. But it's horrible timing."

I wipe her tears away with my thumbs, "It's okay. We'll be okay."

"This baby is bittersweet news. I don't know how i'm supposed to feel. I don't want this baby to grow up with this kind of lifestyle."
