Harry was bouncing Teddy on his knee as Hermione apparated into Grimwald place. It was baby safe now, but was still a dump none the less.
"Harry! Where are you?" Harry heard Hermione call up the hall.
"In here!" He called back standing up with Teddy in his arms. Teddy's hair was black like his dads, but it turned blue as Hermione came into the room. She picked him off and told Harry all about the others and Ron.
"Take a seat Hermione." So she sat, putting Teddy on the ground as Harry made colored smoke erupt from the end of his wand.
"Ron's ok. He's getting frustrated about not being able to be with me more often. You have the summer off why'll he still has to work. Taking all those sick days last year." She laughed and smiled at Teddy in a sad sort of way as he tried to catch the smoke. "Your weekend with Teddy?"
"Yeah. It's his birthday tomorrow! My little mans turning two!" Harry picked Teddy up and tickled him. "Show me you're fighting face." Teddy made a cute little snarl and laughed as Harry tickled him again.
"Stop! Daddy! Stop!" Teddy called Harry Daddy, and he swelled with pride when ever this happens.
"I'll be here tomorrow. Molly's about to burst she's so happy Ginny got onto the Harpies. And because it's Teddy's 2nd birthday with you Harry. Arthur sends his regards from Kingsley and George is coming over too. Thank god." She broke off and they both remembered how George had become less active and joking. But all in good time.
"Angelina's coming also," Hermione started again. "Mr. and Mrs.Tonk's sadly can't make it. They're going on a trip. So you have Teddy all week!
"Ginny's coming also. Taking off just for you! Ron, again sadly, can't make it. Too many 'sick' days."
"Well, that's quite a crowd. I'll get Kreacher right on it."
Teddy's Birthday
As Harry sat around with Teddy, waiting until 11 o'clock, he couldn't help but keep smiling as Teddy zoomed around on a toy broomstick. He remembered how Tonks' had always been so joyful and energetic. How she and Lupin would be beaming beside Harry. They would never leave Teddy's godfather out of this moment. Harry liked the idea of being Teddy's legal guardian when he turned 22. He loved Teddy more than anything.
As everyone sat around in the sitting room making small talk George cleared his throat and stood up. He had an excited gleam, a happy gleam in his eyes that had been lacking it.
"Well. As you all may know I'm 22. And I'm an adult. So I'd like to say, "Everyone waited for one of his jokes since he had on big grin. But he got on his knees in front of Angelina and said "Will you Marry me?"
