Pansy ate dinner with Dobby and went upstairs to her room. HEr owl awaited her with a note attached. Pansy unrolled the parchment.

Pansy,

Don't give up on Lucius just yet. I heard about Veronica. My most sincerest apologies go out to you. I know that you hoped to start a family together. But never mind about that. The plan with Granger was not successful. I know that you were acting on emotion, so please believe me when I say that it's not your fault. But now it's more important than ever that we get her and the unborn child. If this child lives, our whole organization of Death Eaters will disappear forever. That cannot happen. Since I am no longer a friend of the Order, I cannot retrieve you myself. As much as you hate her, I shall be sending Veronica to fetch you. You will bring Granger with you. No matter what you do. I don't care how you do it. Just make sure she's with you when you leave. Veronica will be picking you up next week, so get ready.

Written in love and haste,

Severus

Pansy reread the letter. Veronica! She slammed her fist down on the table beside her bed, scaring the owl and sending it across the room, hooting.

"Shhhhhhh!" Pansy held a finger to her lips to quiet the owl. Pansy replied to the letter, and sent the owl on it's way. She flopped down on the bed. One week. She had one week to get Hermione to Snape. But how? How? A plan began to form in her mind...

Hermione set up dinner for Draco. He was working late at Gringotts. She didn't like him working long hours, but it was important to have the gold for when Cara was born. Tonight's dinner was his favorite, Chicken Parmesean. He loved that muggle food so much, she had bought alot of the ingredients, so she could make it whenever he was in the mood. Humming as she cooked, Hermione listened to the radio.

An owl flew in through the window. Hermione stopped humming. She went over to the owl and unwrapped the message on it's leg. But it was for Draco, and a charm was on it, so only he could open it. Hermione shrugged, and put the letter on the table.

Soon Draco came in. Hermione went over to him.

"Guess what's for dinner?" She asked as she hugged him.

"You?" Draco asked with a smirk as he kissed her.

Hermione pulled back, laughing.

"Try again, hotstuff."

Draco wandered into the kitchen.

"Chicken Parmesean! Hermione!" He turned around and swept Hermione into a bear hug. She gasped for air while laughing.

"Draco! The baby! Stop!" Draco put her down, then kissed her.

"Draco, there was a letter for you. I couldn't open it." Draco walked over to the table and picked up the letter. Ripping it open, he scanned it quickly. He turned pale, and apparated.

"DRACO!" Hermione screamed. She picked up the letter.

Draco,

This is to be read by you and only you. I must see you alone. If you bring, or even think about bringing Hermione, I shall have her killed. Or...do it myself. Come to Grimmald Place. At once.

Pansy

Hermione grasped the edges of the table, trying to fight off unconscience. She failed, and she fainted, while the parmesean burned.

Short, yes. Interesting...I'll let you judge. I'm sorry it's late, I usually post at 3, but today I went with Simaan to get my parent's anniversary gift.
