 Chapter 4!
Ok, the next chapter isn't my favorite but I guess its good. Its a little fast but don't be worried that its ending because more is happending after Hogwarts ends.
Chapter 4, “I’ll Be There When The World Stops Turning…”
Well, Harry and I have to deal with the effect of our mistakes. The whole Weasley family plus Lupin, Tonks and Moody, were all very shocked at the news of a baby. Of course, it probable freaked them about, about Harry and me doing it. Every day goes by and I know in 8 months, what I’ll be bringing into this world and it scares me to death to have such a responsibility. Harry tries to keep it all together like he isn’t worried about this baby but I know that he is terrified. All of the adventures we have done don’t sum up to this. We don’t know how to take care of a child! I want to cry every time I think about what’s inside me.
Of course I told my parents and let’s say they weren’t very pleased. They were saying how it was going to ruin my life and my career and that I should get rid of it. Get rid of it?! It’s not like old clothes or something. It’s a baby! I told them that I couldn’t kill it or give it up. I have to start worrying about N.E.W.T.s, and then I’ll start freaking out about the baby.
“Hermione! Can I borrow your notes?” Ron said annoyingly. Harry, Ron and I were studying in the library for the biggest test of the 7 years of Hogwarts. “Sure, Ron” I said and handed him my History of Magic notes. We had been studying whenever we could. Ok, yeah I forced them to come to the library all of the time now that the tests are just around the corner. I admit that I’m freaking out. “Harry, what if I fail?” I would say over and over again. He would respond the same thing over and over again. “Hermione, you’re the smartest witch ever. You will never fail!” I would always blush and relax.
The time flew by before anybody knew it. I was already two and a half months pregnant and N.E.W.T.s were in less than two weeks! We were getting barely any homework and given tons of time to study. Let me add that the stress was not helped by daily nausea. Crackers have become my new best friend against unwanted vomiting.
In the library, I ran and found Harry studying. “Harry!” I said excitedly. “What?” he said without looking up. “I want you to throw something at me.” I said. He looked at me, fearing for my sanity. “I think you need to calm down. Plus, why would I throw something at you?” “I read in my book that I might have a force field and I want to test it!” I whispered. “No” “Please just throw a piece of parchment at me.” I said pouting. “Fine!” he said and crumbled up a piece of parchment and threw it at me. As soon as the paper was thrown at me, a silver- blue force field appeared and the paper knocked off it and fell across the library.
“Wow…” we both said in illusion. “Now that was pretty cool” I said and Harry nodded. “We should go back to studying” he suggested and I nodded and we studied together. “No one told me I was going to find you, unexpected what you did to my heart. When I lost hope you were there to remind me. This is the start. I’ll be there, when the world stops turning, I’ll be there when the storm is through. In the end I wanna be standing, at the beginning with you* I sang softly as Harry watched me. “I really hope if our baby is a girl that she has your beautiful voice” he whispered. I smiled at him and kissed his lips.
We studied all night and didn’t talk at all after that. But that song got stuck in both of our head like someone super glued it. Who knows that this road will take us, all I know is that Harry will be there, at the beginning and the end.

Hope you liked it! Hope your all excited about the baby to be! I'll try and post another soon!
