The sun had rose on Sunday 17th July 2002 and the birds were cheeping annoyingly outside Potter Manors master bedroom window. They were loud enough to wake Harry up. He turned his head to the bedside table to look at the small alarm clock. 5:30. As much as Harry loved summer, the warm weather and everything about it, he hated the fact everything outside got up so early. He grunted and covered his head with a pillow to try and drown out the sound, but it was no good. 'I'll go watch a muggle movie in the screening room, so that I don't wake Ginny' he thought. So he carefully pulled the duvet off himself, swung his legs to the side and stood up, trying to make the littlest amount of noise possible. His wife wasn't a morning person, and he was sure she wouldn't want to be woken up at 5:30. He creeped over to the brown armchair in the corner of the room and pulled on his pajama bottoms. He had then made it to the door and was about to open it and then he saw Ginny stirring. He didn't move. She tossed and turned a bit before fluttering her eye lids open and grunting when she saw the time.
"Morning love" Harry said. Ginny just grunted. "I'm so sorry did I wake you?" He added when she didn't say anything.
"No it was that bloody nature, bloody birds" she replied. Then she seemed to realise where he was stood, about to leave the room. "Where were you going? Were you leaving me?" Tears welled up in her eyes.
"Oh, Gin. You know I'd never leave you! I love you so much! I didn't want to wake you" he answered, walking back over to the bed. He climbed back into bed and kissed her forehead and lay back. She rested her head on his chest and he stroked through her fiery red, Weasley hair.
"Love you" Ginny giggled, while ruffling his untameable black hair.
"Love you too, Firetop" Harry knew she loved it when he called her this. "Shall we go watch a muggle movie?" He asked
"Yeah yeah yeah!" She bounced around like a little girl.
"Okay baby, which one?" He chuckled.
"Erm," she bit her lip like she always did when she was unsure of something. "Surprise me honey!" She decided.
5minutes late they were sat cuddling on the sofa in the screening room, about to watch The Lion King.
They watched The Lion King and then a few tv programmes. At 10am Ginnys rumbling stomach decided it was time to get breakfast. They raced each other down the staircases and arrived at the kitchen at the same time.
"I'll beat you next time Potter!" Ginny grinned. And the couple laughed. A sudden pop made them stop, but then they realised it was the house elves, Asha, Asho, and Ashee.
"Good Morning master and mistress, sleep well?" Asho asked.
"Lovely thank you Asho, you?" Ginny politely replied on behalf of her and Harry.
"Asho, Asha and Ashee slept very well thank you"
"Good, that's very good" Harry beamed.
"Would master and mistress require any assistance in preparing breakfast?" Ashee spoke in a high pitched squeaky voice.
"I think we will be alright, thanks for the offer though" Ginny nodded.
"Okay" and with that the three elves disaperated from the room with a small pop, identical to the one that had occurred when they had entered the room. Ginny began scouring the cupboards for something appropriate to eat at breakfast, and eventually pulled out a box of muggle breakfast cereal; rice snaps. She poured two bowls of it then put it back in the cupboard and took the two bowls over to the fridge to fill with milk. Harry then reached out and tickled her waist. Ginny then lifted the bowls in the air to make sure she didn't spill them and tried to dodge the tickle. She did so rather successfully, as only got tickled for a few seconds but afterwards she said: "Mr Potter will regret doing that"
"How do you mean?" He asked, looking scared.
Ginny completely ignored him and carried on "Mr Potter will know never to mess with Ginny again" and with that she put the bowls down on the counter and walked over to the glass cupboard, chose one and walked over to the sink.
"You wouldn't" Harry had obviously picked up on what she was doing because he looked and sounded scared. She filled the glass with cold water and walked over to Harry. He tried to dodge it but she was too quick for him and tipped the contents of the glass onto him. She then burst out laughing. "I'm glad you think this is funny Mrs Potter," he started, his hair dripping water down his face. "I will be getting my revenge"
"Of course you will" Ginny said, pouring milk into the bowls and handing one of the bowls to her husband. They ate and when the bowls were empty she told Harry to go have a shower and get ready to go to The Burrow while she finished off her coffee. The family all went round to The Burrow every sunday. He obeyed, and ran upstairs to the main bathroom. It was painted teal blue with a massive bath, a sky blue toilet and sink and an elaborate mirror. She sipped her coffee in silence while Harry showered. 10 minutes later Ginny was snapped to reality by Harry yelling down the stairs "Ginny love, you can come have a shower now!" She went up to the bathroom and showered. After that she pulled out a flowery summer dress and put it on and Harry wore denim shorts with a red v neck tshirt.
"Just got to wait for Teddy now" Ginny said as they walked down the stairs, hand in hand.
Just as she said that they heard a croaky voice saying "Harry? Ginny?" It was Andromeda Tonks with Teddy.
"Just coming" Harry replied. They found Andromeda and Teddy in the arriving room. That was the room everyone apparated and flooed to. "Hello Dromeda, hello Teddy!"
"Hello Harry, Ginny!" Andromeda replied.
"Hello Aunty Ginny, hello Uncle Harry" the six year old giggled.
"I better be off, I've got to go visit my friend, Janet, she's had a fall" Andromeda sighed.
"Oh, give her our love, are we ready to go Ted?" Ginny smiled as she watched Teddy bounce around nodding his head vigorously.
"Bye little man!" Andromeda beamed as she ruffled his turquoise long hair. And with that she apparated out the room.
"Let's get going then" Harry said before apparating with Teddy in arms and he was holding Ginnys hand.
They arrived in the Burrow hallway and Ginny yelled "Mum, dad!"
"In the kitchen honey" Molly replied, and with that Ginny ran into the Burrows kitchen to meet her mother who was straining potatoes at the sink. "Hello darling!" Molly exclaimed.
"Hi mum, how are you? Ginny asked.
"Good thanks how are you?" She replied.
"Fine thanks, are we the last to arrive?"
"Yes honey. Fleur says her and Bill have an announcement!" Molly said
"Exciting!" Ginny tried to say but she had a mouthful of potato so it was hard. Molly just finished plating up the food and Ginny helped her levitate it into the dining room. "DINNERS READY!" Ginny shouted. All of her family rushed to the table. Molly and Arthur were sat at either end of the table as usual. Teddy sat next to Victoire who sat next to Bill who sat next to Fleur who was sat next to George who was sat next to Angelina. On the other side of the table Ron was sat next to Hermione, who was sat next to Ginny who was sat next to Harry who was sat next to Audrey who was sat next to Percy.
"So then Fleur, what is your big announcement, don't tell me, have you finally persuaded Bill to have a haircut?" Molly asked with a grin and look of hope on her face.
"Mum!" Bill blushed. Everyone laughed.
"Non, but I weel tell you zat ve are pregnant!" She smiled. The whole family stood up and congratulated them, but Teddy remained seated with a confused look on his face.
Victoire turned to look at his confused face and explained "it means that my mummy and daddy are having a baby!" She had obviously been told before, but it was pretty impressive for a 4 year old to say that. It took a few seconds for it to sink in but then he realised and his face lit up.
"Is it going to be a boy baby or a girl baby?" He asked her.
"Mummy and Daddy don't know yet" Victoire replied. The pair seemed to be oblivious to everything going on around them.
Meanwhile Molly had asked "How far along are you? Do you know if its a boy or a girl? What do you want it to be?"
Bill had replied "12 weeks so no, it's too early to tell. I don't mind as long as its born healthy and lovely" and then he whispered "But a boy would be amazing. I don't know if I could cope with 3 girls in the house!" But after a playful slap from Fleur he then said "But just a healthy baby that's all I could dream of"
After they had eaten Harry, Ginny and Teddy flooed back to Potter Manor. Harry and Ginny played board games with Teddy and a few hours later Andromeda came to pick Teddy up. They said their goodbyes, ate tea and then went up to bed. They often chatted before they went to sleep. "Well, congrats to Bill and Fleur isn't it!" Ginny exclaimed.
"Yeah, and while we were all congratulating them I heard Vic explain it to Ted. She said 'it means my mummy is having a baby'" Harry replied.
"Viccy is so sweet isn't she?"
"Adorable, and her and Ted are inseparable!"
"I know right!" And with that they both fell straight to sleep.
