A/N: I finally finished this chapter today. It took a week to write but it is really good. I hope you all enjoy.
Months went by and the two girls lived their life from their hiding spot. Hermione watched at her stomach got bigger and the time of having the child getting closer and closer though still the war went on above ground. They had taken turns getting the supplies they needed but since now Hermione only had 2 month left before having the child Ginny took on the job of doing it. Of course Hermione protested but in the end Ginny won and got her way.
Hermione sat in the living room while Ginny was out getting food. She sat in the silence but it was kind of nice but it was also something she was used to by now because it was mostly what she heard when she and Ginny weren't talking or when Ginny was out getting food.
It was hard for the past few months but eventually she accepted how things where going to work and that she'd just have to wait until Ron got back. Obviously she was having this child before Ron got home so this was the next thing, figuring out how to explain it to him. Though she had some things planned out it wasn't as easy as it sounded because well it was Ron.
Hermione jumped when she heard a crash sound but it couldn't have been Ginny coming back. Ginny always made sure to be quiet. Quickly Hermione got up and hurried her way to the entrance of their hiding spot and listened. She could hear two voices above her. Two unmistakable voices she knew well and sort of missed at least a little but not all that much.
They were talking in hush tones so she could barely make out what they were saying. Had the two seen Ginny coming in here one night? Why were they here? She knew they meant no harm but she wondered why they where here of all places.
She heard the sound of the rug being moved and she hurried and ran back to the living room. Though she knew them she didn't want to be there waiting for them. Besides what would they say if they found out she was pregnant with Ron's child.
Quietly she went into her room and closed the door but left a little crack so she could watch what happened. It was only a few seconds she saw the two boys, Fred and George Weasley. She watched as they looked around the room a little and remembered Ginny and her had made it seem like they were just their.
"Well obviously someone has been down here." Fred said as he walked through the kitchen then turning to glance at George.
"Yes it would appear so."
Fred looked at the door to the rooms and then at George. "We should check and make sure whoever was here isn't still."
Hermione was shocked, it was if he knew she was hiding away from them. She sighed silently and walked out of the room. "How long did you know I was here?"
The two laughed and looked at Hermione as if they already knew she'd give up so easy. "We really didn't even know who was here. I could have sworn I saw Ginny come here a few days ago. Where is she anyways?" For the first time Fred looked at Hermione closer and his eyes got big. "Hermione, are you pregnant?"
"She went out to get food," Hermione answered as she walked around and cleaned up the kitchen some. "She'll be back soon."
George looked at Fred then sneaked up behind Hermione. "You seem to be avoiding the are you pregnant question."
Hermione jumped and turned around to glare at the two boys behind her. "Okay fine. Yes I am pregnant with Ron's child. Happy?"
The twins exchanged glances of shock then Fred pulled Hermione into a hug as she tried to push away. "Our poor sister-in-law to be. Pregnant with her soon to be husband's child and he isn't even hurrying back to you."
Finally Hermione got enough strength to push Fred away from her. "He doesn't know!" she snapped then turning away from them. "I didn't tell him before he left. He has no clue about the child. No one but Ginny, myself, and now you two know."
George looked at Hermione and hugged her a little though it was kind of awkward for the both of them. "Hermione, why haven't you told our family? Mum could be a huge help. We can tell her if you are-"
Quietly Hermione moved away from George and went over to the table. "No," she whispered quietly. "I don't want anyone else knowing. I don't want this information to get into the wrong hands."
The twins of course followed behind her knowing this was something that was hard for her. "Can't you trust our family? I mean we will be your family soon enough," Fred said quietly knowing this was the truth if Ron came out of the war okay.
Hermione turned and looked at the twins then down, trying very hard to fight the tears. "I can trust your family guys. I just don't want any of you to get hurt."
"Hermione we have chances of getting hurt whether we know this or not. Don't worry so much about us. Worry some about yourself," George explained as he looked at Hermione wanting to comfort her some but not in a weird way. He knew Hermione would be his sister-in-law one day and he was fine with that, he'd already thought of her as a sister-in-law but it was weird to be the one to comfort her.
"I have worried about myself, that is why I am here hiding with Ginny," Hermione said quietly as she looked at George then at Fred. "We are the two people in the most danger at the moment."
"We know." Fred and George said together then Fred continued by himself, "The Death Eaters have been controlling the Daily Prophet. They are having a reward for anyone who finds you two. We were glad we didn't know were you where so that they wouldn't torture us out of it and get their your hands on you."
Hermione's eyes widened as she looked at the two of them. "You know that is the reason I wanted to keep the child a secret. Who knows what they'll try to do to the child if they find out."
The twins looked at each other and then gave a nod as if they were having some sort of silent conversation in their heads. "Tell us what you want us to do Hermione? You don't want the information out so tell us what you want us to do," Fred said quietly as he looked at Hermione. "Just no death please. We don't think we are ready to die. We'll clear our memory of this knowledge, we will stay down here so you know no one can get their hands on us, or we can just hope you believe we won't tell even if we get tortured to death."
There was silence as Hermione thought to herself for a while. Though the twins often joked and did things to annoy people she just couldn't see them lying about something like this.
"It is up to you. If you want to go back up there to your family and tell no one that is fine. I trust in you but if the Death Eaters find out I will know exactly who to go to about it. Then if you want you can stay down here but I don't think Ginny will like that all too much," Hermione finally told them then smiled faintly.
"No, Ginny won't."
The three turned to see Ginny coming in and carrying a few bags full of food for them. She walked into the kitchen and put everything down onto the counter then joined the group. "I am not going to have you two boys down here with us. There is no way I will let that happen."
Quietly the twins looked at Ginny and then at each other. "Why not? We could help you with getting food and everything. We aren't the ones everyone is looking for, you guys are."
Hermione put her hand on Ginny's shoulder and tried her best to smile some. "Maybe they could be helpful Ginny. Even if you don't want them down here, they can help us get what we need and faster. You have to admit that of all things, that they can really help us out some."
Ginny looked at Hermione in shock then at the twins and looking at them closely for a few seconds. The room was silent for a few minutes while Ginny was thinking to herself. "Well I guess you have a point. They could get us what we need faster then we could since we need to sneak out."
Fred and George smiled brightly as Ginny admitted this all. "But…" Ginny continued as she looked at the boys and they suddenly frowned knowing this couldn't be good. "I don't want you both living here."
"Why not?" Fred asked in protest.
"Because what are you going to tell mum? It isn't like you are in danger like we are. It is just better you guys stay with everyone and help them with the Order. You can come down when you want but not for days, just a couple hours," Ginny told the two who seemed a little upset but a bit happy about it at the same time.
Fred and George looked at each other and then at Ginny and Hermione. "Alright deal. We will get you food every day and bring it in for you two. We will spend a few hours down here or so and help you out with anything you need."
Hermione looked at Ginny and smiled some and then at the two. "Alright guys. Sounds like a good deal."
The twins looked at Hermione and nodded then looked at Ginny. "One more thing you two. I don't want you down here when Hermione is giving birth to her child. We won't be able to take her anywhere so she is going to have to have it down here. I don't want you guys here," Ginny informed them both.
"Why would we want to be? We aren't the father so it isn't something we want to be here for," George told them then looking at Hermione. "Though we will come down after and meet the baby. We have to be good uncles."
Hermione nodded and laughed a little bit but not much. "Alright. Good luck with trying to be good uncles."
"Trying?! We are going to be the best uncles ever," Fred said, correcting Hermione. George and him were going to be great uncles no matter what it took.
Hermione looked at Ginny and the two girls burst into laughter from this. "Well good luck with that Fred," Ginny said, trying to stop laughing. "Now you two should get going."
George nodded and the two walked away back up the tunnel, talking to themselves quietly so the girls could not here. When they were gone Hermione and Ginny got themselves some food for dinner. They ate in silence as it was most of the time since there wasn't much to talk about really at the moment. After the two finished eating they went to their rooms for the night, just like every night.
Hermione didn't want to admit this all that much but she liked the idea of Fred and George helping out. It was a huge help in her opinion. As much as Ginny would hate to admit it but there was no way Ginny could eventually do all the shopping and still help with the baby. It was way to much while they were in hiding to do all that and still keep the place clean.
The twins helping was strange but it helped a whole lot. Now they had to hope the twins will tell no one about this and be a help. It was just what the two girls needed, was help from someone who can do what they can't. Go out in public without a problem unless the Death Eaters found out. Then they'd be joining them.
