I Don't Own Anything

Hermione was sitting in her office when her three month pregnant sister-in-law walked in.

"Hello Ginny, what can I help you with?"

"Hey Hermione I wanted to ask you a favor."

"Sure"

"I was wondering if it's not too much to ask but could you probably watch James tonight, Harry's taking me out to celebrate our anniversary."

After Ron and Hermione got married they discussed that they should concentrate on their careers first and then try to start a family. Lately babies were on Hermione's mind 24/7. "Not that I don't mind taking care of my little nephew but, why didn't you ask your mother?"

After Ginny gave birth to James, Molly stayed with Ginny and Harry to help take care of their new born son. She stayed for 7 months until Ginny had enough and kicked her out. "After the hell she put Harry and me through, besides she's taking care of George and Angelina's kids tonight so I didn't want to bother her with another toddler to watch over."

"Sure, I'll be happy to."

"Thank you" Ginny said while hugging her. "Okay, be at our flat at 6:30 and don't be late." Ginny mockingly waved a finger a her

"Will I at least get paid?" Hermione smirked

"Maybe…if you do a good job." Ginny muttered through the other side of the door

Hermione rolled her eyes and shook her head all while wearing a grin

I better call Ron and let him know. She picked up her mobile and call his Auror office. When he didn't pick up Hermione realized something. Idiot! She smacked her forehead. He's at the shop, I forgot that he's covering for George. she dialed the number but he stilled didn't pick up. Where is that boy? With a sighHermione got up and left her office. I guess I'll have to leave him a message at home.

When she arrived in her flat she wondered if Ron was already there. "Ron! Are in here!"

I Swear she said while writing her husband a note and telling him she'll be at Harry's and Ginny's babysitting James. She left it on the kitchen table and went to their house via flue powder.

When she arrived at her best friend's home she saw that they were already waiting for her "Hermione it's about bloody time!" Harry exclaimed

"It's nice to see you too Harry, and Language please." as she dusted her self off

"Sorry but we've been waiting for you to arrive for half a hour"

"That's my fault, I'm trying to locate Ron all day but he hasn't pick up his mobile. You wouldn't know were he is do you?"

"Actually I haven't seen him since yesterday. Isn't he at the shop?"

Ginny was getting frustrated "Where ever Ron is I'm sure he's fine, okay let's go Harry" she said while grabbing Harry's arm trying to pull him towards the door.

"Hold on Ginny we still have to set some rules. Okay Hermione you need to give James a bath and feed him. He'll get sleepy around 8:00." He turn to his son and gave him a hug and a kiss on his forehead. "Bye pal."

Ginny tightly hugged her son "Okay sweaty be good to auntie Hermione."

Harry was about to leave when he turned back to Hermione. "Oh and Hermione no boys" he said mockingly

"Ha Ha, just get going you two. And Happy Anniversary. " she quickly added

Around 8:00 as Harry predicted James was lightly snoring on the sofa. Hermione was gazing upon her sweat little nephew. He looks so peaceful. Such a cutie pie. she said as she moved a piece of his very dark ginger hair. I hope my kids have ginger hair. "Okay James let's get you to your bed" she whispered as she carefully lifted he up.

After Hermione put James to sleep in his bed she went to the living room to finish up some work when she hear someone knocking at the door I wonder who that could? she thought as she reached the door

She opened the door "Ron?"
