I stood on the balcony of my mansion and looked out at the night sky. I sniffed at the night air, which held the smell of the ocean in the air. I then looked at my stomach and clutched it protectively it was growing bigger everyday and Harry wasn't there to see that, he didn't know I, his wife, was pregnant.
I then looked at my left hand the gold band glittered. I hadn't seen him since 3 months ago when the order requested him and told him, they had destroyed the last of the horuxes and it was time for him to go destroy Voldamort. I being his wife put me in to much danger at least that's what he said.
"Hermione." I turned around and smiled
" Hello Ron."
"How are you?" I put my hand on my stomach.
" Great you?" He looked at my stomach and his eyes went wide
" Y…your…."
"Pregnant yes."
"Does Harry know?'' I shook my head
"I haven't heard from Harry in months, but could you tell him."
" Of course."
" What did you come here for"?
"Harry wanted me to give you this." He handed me an envelope
" Thank you." He nodded then apparated out. I opened it up
Dear Hermione,
I know I left so suddenly but we have been tracking down death eaters. By tonight, though I will be facing Voldamort. You know about the prophecy, and I'm so sorry that I could not see you one last time. Know though that I love and will always love you. If I don't make it though I wanted you to be happy, and that I will always be watching over you.
With all my love,
Harry
I felt the hot tears streaking down my face; I slowly slid down to the floor and put my knees to my chest. I watched, as the sun was about to set. I stood up and walked over to the balcony. I hung my head down and gripped the railing of the balcony with my hands.
I stood there with tears streaming down my face and then I felt someone laid their hands on mine and lean in to my shoulder. I took a sharp intake of breath "Hermione." He whispered in to my ear, I shivered.
" Harry." I whispered, he did not say anything as his hands traveled up to my shoulders. I felt the goose bumps on my arms where he touched me. I felt my knees going weak and as he reached my shoulders, he gently turned me around. His eyes traveled to my stomach.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" he questioned.
" How was I supposed to, I haven't heard from you in months?" Guilt suddenly plagued his eyes.
" I know." He looked at the floor. I lifted his chin up with my hand.
" It's okay I Know I should have told you earlier, and I was going to because that meant you would return, I wanted to be selfish. He opened his mouth to say something but I silenced him with my finger on his lips. " But I knew you had a job to do so I took the selfless route," I shook my head " You know for once I just wanted to be selfish." I looked at him and knew I needed him, so I stepped forward and kissed him. He kissed me and unfortunately, we broke apart.
We gasped for breath and he put my forehead against his " I have to go."
"I know."
" I wished I didn't have to."
" Me to." He gave me another kiss and I wrapped my arms around his neck. He was the first one to break the kiss. He untangled my arms from his neck. He kneeled down and then kissed my stomach. I smiled a sad smile, he looked up at me then stood up, he also had a sad smile on his face. He then gave me a small kiss on the lips and apparated out.
I wasn't a very religious person but I prayed that night that he would return safely. I didn't sleep and when the sun rose, I looked at the orange, pink, and purple sky and smiled a little smile. Suddenly I heard a 'Pop' and I turned around and saw Harry there. He had cuts and bruises on him but I was relieved and started to spill the tears I didn't know I was holding.
I felt Harry embrace me and I cried even more
" I love you Hermione."
"I love you to."
