The Talk

NiaSphinx

Author Note: Thanks for all the reviews guys! I've had a few reviews mentioning that Harry and Hermione are too young. Okay I'll admit that this story wasn't going where I thought it would so AS OF NOW THEY ARE 17!! OKAY?? when I have more time I'll go back and change their ages. And another thing some people have been saing that considering what happened in OOTP Lupin should be doing it. But I wrote this story before OOTP was out just didn't publish it on Portkey. And I still want Sirius saying it so this story is now AU although i didnt want it to be...

SO NOTE: Harry and Hermione are now 17 and because of OOTP this story is now kinda AU!

Also sorry I'm taking a while to get chappies out for everything but I've got exams @_@ ive got my first one on wednesday and I'm not looking forward to it!!! Wish me look!

Thanks plz R&R

Luv NiaSphinx

Harrry sat on the bed beside Hermione gently stroking her hand and speaking soothing words to her, "Shh shh. It's alright. We'll work things out."

Hermione hiccuped still sobbing and rocking. The girls had left reluctantly earlier to go to class and they promised to tell Ron and the professors that they were sick. Harry had been sitting with Hermione, speaking comforting words to her, trying to calm her down and resolve the situation.

"How Harry? How will we work things out? I've got your baby inside of me and I'm not ready! I'm only 17! I haven't finished school yet! I'm not ready Harry!" Hermione said, her voice rising to hysterical.

Harry caught her in his grip and brought her close to him and shook her a little as she tried to get away from him, "Hermione!" he said sharply and made her look him in the eye, "I will figure this out! Have you that little faith in me? I've just got to figure out what to do. We'll work things out." he said his voice calm although his emotions inside weren't quite as settled ("Oh my god how am I going to get out of this?!?!")

He drew Hermione in an embrace, Hermione reluctantly leaned against him, wiping her eyes with a tissue.

"I love you."She sniffed.

Harry rested his head on top of hers, "I love you too. Don't worry I'll sort this all out."

'I am screwed....'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry took a deep breath and knocked on Sirius' door.

A muffled, "Come in." beckoned him.

Harry shut his eyes and opened the door to see Sirius dressed in his nightgown, "Harry?" he yawned, "What are you doing here? It's like...2am!" he said looking at his watch.

Harry bit his lip, "I can come back. It's okay. Sorry I bothered you." he turned to walk away but was interrupted by Sirius who grabbed his arm.

"It's alright. Come in. What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost." Sirius said, his eyes twinkling a little.

Harry took a deep breath and sat down in one of the chairs around a small wooden table.

"Ah Harry. What are you doing here so early?" A voice said sleepily.

Harry looked up and saw Lupin coming out of the joining door between their two rooms.

"I might as well tell you both at the same time," Harry said his voice resigned, "You'll find out anyway."

Lupin and Sirius exchanged worried looks and sat down opposite him.

"Whats wrong Harry?" Sirius asked seriously (AN: hahah I love saying that!!)

Harry gulped, "Remember the talk we had?" he asked.

Sirius' eyes widened, "Yes..."

"Well...I have a bit of a problem now.." Harry said awkwardly.

Sirius' lips quivered, "What sort of problem Harry? Are you having problems down there?" he asked pointing down.

Harry turned red, "No no problems there." he squeaked.

"It's nothing to be embarrassed about." Lupin said taking his squeaky answer as an 'I'm-too-embarrassed'.

Harry shook his head fervently, "It's not like that!! It's not to do with that! I...oh god...Hermione and me...we..." Harry trailed off.

Sirius and Lupin raised identical eyebrows.

"HermionespregnantandIdon'tknowwhattodo." Harry blurted out quickly.

There was a moments awkward silence, "Oh god."Sirius blurted out, "Tell me it's a joke. Please tell me your joking."

Harry took a few deep breaths before answering, "Please help me...we don't know what to do."

Sirius stood up and started pacing, "I don't believe this! My 17 year old god-son has gotten his girlfriend pregnant! What were you thinking!? You obviously weren't thinking! If you had been this would never have happened! I thought you were responsible! I was wrong clearly!" he yelled, his face growing redder.

Harry sat there silently taking in all the insults, his face growing redder too.

"Sirius calm do-" Lupin started but was interrupted by an outburst from Harry.

"You think I wanted this to happen? Hermione are in love! Our sleeping together was us sharing our love fore each other. We took precautions but this happened anyway!" Harry said, his voice growing quieter at every word.

Sirius sighed, "This shouldn't be one of the problems in your life at this time! You have enough problems with Voldemort...you don't need this."

Harrys temper flared, "What would you have me do? Leave her? I can't do that! I thought telling you would show how much I trust you and how much I really need the help of my god-father at this moment! But if I can't lean on you when I need you the most what's the point in you even being my god-father!?"

The air was thick with tension and everyone was silent.

"Sirius sit down. We need to have a serious talk. All of us. Without yelling at each other." Lupin said calmly.

Sirius started to argue with Lupin but was cut short by the glare Lupin gave him.

"Alright." he said resignedly and sat down in his chair again.

"Alright Harry." Lupin said turning to him, "You said you took precautions?"

Harry nodded, "Hermione made a potion to stop her getting pregnant...we didn't think we'd need anymore protection because Hermione is such a capable witch."

Lupin nodded, "Yes she is But even the most brilliant people make mistakes sometimes."

Sirius put his head in his hands, "Who have you told"

Harry bit his lip, "Well Ginny, Lavender and Parvati were there when I found out...so them and you two. But I need to tell Ron...it's something that involves all of us."

Lupin nodded, "I think that's wise. But make sure they won't tell anyone."

Sirius sat there in silence.

"Sirius? I'm sorry I know I've let you down..." Harry said regret in his eyes.

Sirius looked up at him, "I'm sorry too Harry. You haven't let me down. Moony is right. Even the most brilliant people make mistakes."

AN: That's not really where I wanted to stop but I needed to get a chapter out so all my reviewers ;) won't get mad at me again!! Please review! Wish me luck for my exam @_@ ja ja.

Next chapter: Hermione and Harry go to Madame Pomphrey for a diagnosis and someone unexpected finds out about Hermiones pregnancy...
