The next day, Hermione got up in a hurry, feeling nauseous again. Ginny got up and went to help him by holding his hair."Can't wait for it to stop?- Frankly my Mione, I sympathize.- Thank you Gin'. You'll see when it's your turn.- Oh but it's not for now- I hope so !- Yes do not worry. We haven't done anything with Harry yet.- And that's fine. Sex is sin! »Ginny laughed:"And you're the one telling me that?"- Well yes, I made a nice bullshit and I don't want you to do the same. I can't even imagine your mother's face if she found out that her daughter was pregnant at 13.- She would kill me!- Oh no. The worst will be Ron's reaction.- Aaaahhhhh!!! Yes! He would murder me! And he would castrate Harry! »Hermione burst out laughing, followed by Ginny. She got up from the toilet, flushed the toilet and went to rinse her mouth. She took her shower while Ginny tidied up a bit of what was lying around the room. Suddenly, she was interrupted by Hermione who let out a cry of rage. She rushed to see what was pissing Hermione off so much and burst out laughing when she saw what was going on in the bathroom. Hermione struggled to try to tie her bra:"Ginnie! Come help me instead of laughing. I think I went from 90B to 100D!"Not exaggerating all the same, but it is true that they have grown enormously- But how can a breast grow so much in one night?- No idea and if you want my opinion, it's not just your breasts that have grown, said Ginny observing Hermione's belly.- Did you see that ? I miss my flat stomach Ginny! I don't even know if I'll ever find him again.- You'll see, after that it's your big belly that you won't want to do without.- Yeah, that's it !- Well, I think you need to get bigger. We do not have any choice. I can't tie it.- Grrrr! »She went to get her wand, enlarged her bra and put it on. They decided to spend the day in the bedroom. Anyway, it was too cold outside to be able to go out and they preferred to stay warm in their cozy bed.Evening came quickly. Hermione and Ginny had already been getting ready for a good little hour. Ginny had decided to put on a blood red dress that went down to her ankles and was split to mid-thigh. Hermione had opted for a black dress, bustier and very short, cut in a triangle at the bottom. They finished their hair and went down to the Great Hall. Outside the wooden doors, Blaise and Harry were waiting for them. They looked gorgeous in their black suits. Hermione took the arm Blaise offered her and saw Draco coming up from the dungeons with Pansy clinging to his arm. He seemed quite jaded by what Pansy was telling him. Hermione felt a pang at seeing him accompanied by another girl even though he didn't look more than happy. Blaise smiled at him and they walked into the Great Hall. It was set up as for the Halloween ball with small tables of 6 or 8 in different places and a large bar taking up one side of the room. Little fairies were throwing silver glitter and the artificial sky shone with a thousand lights. It was truly beautiful, but despite that, Hermione didn't feel any better. She adored Blaise but she wanted so much to be in Draco's arms rather than in those of his best friend. For the first time in her life, Hermione was jealous of Parkinson's. Blaise dragged her to the middle of the dance floor to dance to the opening music.

Draco meanwhile, was in the same frame of mind as Hermione. He found it more and more bizarre. He had tried like during their first breakup to talk to her, to explain to her that he loved her and that he didn't give a fuck about Pansy, but like during their first breakup, he had failed miserably. When Blaise told him he was going with Hermione, he was relieved. At least she wouldn't go with just anyone. But that didn't stop her from envying Blaise. He was the one who held her in his arms, he was the one who could breathe in her scent, he was the one who twirled her on the dance floor. He would have liked so much to be in his place. The music ended and he saw Hermione and Blaise heading for the bar. They took two firewhisky and went to join Hermione's friends in a corner of the room.Hermione walked up to her friends with Blaise. Ginny stifled an exclamation of terror upon seeing her best friend with a glass of alcohol but said nothing. After several dances, Hermione went back to get herself a glass of Whiskey. This time Ginny stood up and led her aside."Hermione! No but that's not! You are pregnant, I remind you!- Yes and so ? The baby is under "Protego fetus". No danger!- Well even! Just because you're unhappy doesn't mean you have to kick your ass!- Ginny, I do what I want! I'm tall "Then she left Ginny and went to join Blaise who was also starting to get a little drunk.Draco was still watching his best friend and Hermione dancing in the middle of the floor. He raised his glass of Fire-Whiskey to his lips and took a long sip. It was his 4th and he still wasn't drunk. He tolerated alcohol, a little too much even. He could have 2 bottles of Whiskey while remaining totally sober. Pansy came up behind him and put her arms around his neck. Draco offered no resistance. He no longer had the strength. He continued to tirelessly watch Hermione move to the beat of the music. He stood up seeing Blaise pour the Whiskey he had in his mouth into Hermione's who picked it up and swallowed it. He clenched his teeth in rage and pushed Pansy's arms away. She looked upset at the sudden violence and glared at Hermione. She knew Draco loved Hermione but didn't want to admit it. She herself was crazy about him and would do anything to keep him. She tried again a gesture of affection on the beautiful blonde but was pushed away again. Tears were welling up in her big black eyes and she ran off into the grounds of Hogwarts. Draco didn't even seem to notice her absence.Arrived outside, she took a deep breath and dried her tears:
