After deciding when she would meet with Severus and talking with Molly and Arthur for a few minutes, Poppy shooed everyone out so Hermione could rest. "Poppy?" Hermione asked. "Yes, dear?" "Is the baby going to be okay?" Hermione asked her, concern and worry fueling the question. "For now, yes. Though I'm not sure if there will be any difficulties later on. It's too early to tell. I'm sorry." Poppy said sadly and left.

Hermione tried to fall asleep, but wasn't having any luck. "Fifi?" She called. Seconds later she heard a 'pop'. "You called, miss?" "Yes. Will you read to me? I am having trouble falling asleep." "Of course, missus. What do you wish Fifi to read?" Hermione thought for a second. "Beauty and the Beast, please." "Of course, missus. Fifi will be right back with the book."

A few minutes later, Fifi returned with the book and started to read, "Once upon a time, in a far way land. A prince.." As Fifi got to the part of Beast saving Belle, she looked up and noticed Hermione asleep. Fifi marked her page and apparated to Severus's chambers.

"Good evening, Master. Fifi come to tell you that Missus Granger is asleep." "Thank you, Fifi." "Good night, Master. Fifi must inform Mistress Poppy." "Good night, Fifi."
