Ginny had said she had News to tell Harry. With a capital N.

Harry rushed though his work that day at the office, very curious as to what News Ginny could have to tell him. When she had Flooed him earlier that day, she had had a HUGE smile on her face, and Harry was both excited, and a bit frightened, at the prospect of Ginny having News to tell him that made her that happy.

Finally filing the last of the paperwork from his last Auror mission, he grabbed his suitcase and cloak, waved goodbye to his secretary, and made his way to the Ministry's official entrance, the red telephone box he had come in with Mr. Weasley in fifth year for his hearing.

While he could have taken the Floo Network and gotten home faster, the huge beaming smile on Ginny's face had made him think this was a very special occasion, so, true to form, he swung by a shop and bought some red roses and a box of chocolates.

Apparating home, he walked up the path to his home, a typical two-story house with a red roof and white panelling. Not the most exciting of houses, but he loved it. Loved the normality of it. Something he had never had much of.

The path up to the front door was loose gravel and the garden around it had green luscious grass, with a wooden post picketing of the garden where they grew most of their produce.

Opening the door, he hung up his cloak in the hall, set down his suitcase, and made his way into the kitchen where he could hear Ginny humming to herself.

Walking into the kitchen, Ginny had her back to him, and without alerting her to his presence, he snuck up behind her and put his hands over her eyes, asking: "Who is this?"

Smiling Ginny answered: "Well, I have no idea, it couldn't be my wonderful husband could it? Saviour of the Wizarding World?"

Grinning, Harry spun her around and kissed her laughing mouth.

"So…. What was it you wanted to tell me?"

While saying that, Harry presented the roses and chocolates to a smiling Ginny.

"Well…" suddenly, Ginny looked a bit nervous, "remember when we said we were going to stop using birth control and start a family…."

Holding his breath now, Harry watched her with wide eyes, willing her to say it, to not shatter his illusions of a family by not saying it.

Smiling a tiny, secretive, happy smile up at him, Ginny whispered: "I'm pregnant."

For a second, all Harry could do was stare at her in shock, then happiness made him cry out, and he swept Ginny up in his arms, whispering: "I love you, I love you, I love you….." against her neck.

Realizing she had started crying, Harry wiped away her tears with his thumbs, asking her what's wrong.

Shaking her head, Ginny just smiled, happier than she had been in a long while.
