At A Loss For Words

Chapter One: Unexpected Consequences

Ginny Weasley woke with a headache in a bed that wasn't hers. She was in the spare bed in her brothers' shop, Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. As she registered where she was, the event's of the night before flooded into her mind. Planning to surprise Harry at work, she had told James to watch Albus and Lily and to put them to bed by 11. She put on her sexiest dress that still fit over her baby bump and packed a basket with his favorite meal and chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. He had been working late on a project every night and she wanted to give him a treat for all his hard work. She walked up to his office, opened the door, and saw that it wasn't a project that was keeping Harry at work late every night.

What she saw stunned her into a horrified silence. Harry had his back to her, his pants around his ankles, and none other than Pansy Parkinson, the wife of Auror Draco Malfoy, was laying with her back flat on the desk, her eyes closed, her dress discarded on the floor, breasts exposed, her legs around Harry's waist. All Ginny could do was stare with her mouth hanging open until Pansy leaned up to pull Harry's hair and saw her standing in the doorway, eyes wide with shock.

"Oh dear Merlin" Pansy said, as she scrambled to hide behind the desk, as if that would erase the scene from Ginny's mind.

Harry turned, trying to pull up his pants unsuccessfully, and saw his wife turn and run out the door. Ginny could her Harry yelling out to her as she flew down the hall, but she didn't care. She ran as fast and far as she could, finding herself at the shop.

She was still dressed in the clothes from the night before. She apperated to her house and was relieved to find that Harry wasn't in their room. She grabbed her suitcase and threw some clothes into it, then went to take a shower. When she stepped out, she wrapped herself in a towel and walked into her bedroom. She couldn't stop thinking about what had happened. How could that have happened? How did she not see what was going on? Now that she really thought about it, all the evidence was plain: working late at night when no one else was, coming home smelling of a perfume that wasn't hers, the scratches on his back, the bite marks...it was so obvious, and she was so blind.

She dressed quickly and looked at the clock. It was only 8:00 A.M. She woke James and told him to pack a weeks worth of clothes for him and Albus and that they where going to stay with Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione for a little while. Then she went to Lily's room and started to pack enough clothing and toys to last the whole week. She woke her daughter and told her they were going on a trip to stay with Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione for a little while.

"Is Daddy coming too?" Lily asked excitedly. The hopeful look on her face made Ginny want to cry.

"No sweetie, Daddy has to work. But I'm sure he will be happy if you have fun." Ginny smiled weakly.

James came into the room. "I've finished packing Mom. I woke Albus and he wants to bring some games with him to play with Hugo. Is that OK?"

"Yes, that's fine. and you can find something to do with Rose. And Lily, you can help with Molly. She's 3 now."

"Yay!" Lily started dancing around the room.

"Are we all ready to go?" Ginny looked at her children, who all nodded. She led them all out to the car and they were on their way.

Notes: This is the first fan fiction I've ever written, so I'm sorry the first chapter is so short. Please review! I need all the help I can get!
