Chapter Four; Happy Birthday Eve

Brittany bent down and picked Danny up off the ground just as he started to crawl. That's when all of a sudden the baby started to cry. "I'm sorry Daniel but we have to get ready to go to Eve's birthday party." She told him while she planted a kiss on the top of his head and sat him down inside his car seat.

"Is everything already packed inside the diaper bag?" Aaron asked her while she buckled Danny up and then placed a pacifier inside his mouth.

"Yes all of the bottles and diapers are in there along with his teething ring and swimming trunks. I never thought that we would have to bring those with us in December but that's because I didn't know that we would be going to an indoor pool party." She said as the baby continued sucking on his pacifier.

"Is Johnny and Amber going to be there?" Aaron questioned.

"Yes and so is Bill and Fleur. At least the last I heard all four of them were planning to be there. Since Amber's only a week old she's way too little to go in the water, but they knew that everyone would want to see her so that's why they're planning to bring her along." Brittany replied before she swung the diaper bag over her shoulder and then grabbed the car seat by the handle and carried Danny out the door.

…..

Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Hermione greeted Brittany and Aaron at the door. "Hullo there Brittany, hey Aaron." Ginny began with a grin before she turned her head to look over at Danny. "Hullo there Danny, my what a big boy you're getting to be." She said as Aaron grinned back at her.

"I know. He was big enough as it was when he was born and now he's got to weigh at least twenty pounds. And he's not even walking yet." He told her.

"Is that normal for his age?" Harry asked him.

"Well I'm not sure about that but the healer said that he was perfectly healthy." He said.

"Other than that how is my darling godson doing?" Ginny wondered when all of a sudden Ron wrinkled his nose, sniffed the air, and waved his hand in front of his face.

"It smells like the little darling needs a change." He said.

"I'll go ahead and change him. He needs to have his swim diaper on anyway." Brittany began. "Then I'll go ahead and put his trunks on him." She said before she turned around and carried him away.

"Ah shit I just forgot something." Aaron said once he was sure that his son was out of earshot.

"What's that?" Hermione asked him.

"We brought the bottles with us but we forgot his jars of baby food." He replied.

"Oh that's alright, Harry can help you out on that one can't you Harry?" Ginny questioned him as Harry gave a nod.

"Just tell me what kind of baby food that he usually eats." He said.

"Well his favorites are peaches and apples." Aaron told him as Harry snapped his fingers and made the two jars appear inside both of his palms.

"Here you go." He told him before he handed them to him.

"Thanks Harry." Aaron said before Harry snapped his fingers again and made a spoon and bib appear.

"Here, you'll need these too." He told him while he handed them over to him.

"Thanks Harry, I owe you. I'll go ahead and get Eve's birthday presents from out of the trunk of the car." Aaron said before he turned around and walked away and then disapparated into thin air.

….

"Look at her," Mrs. Weasley said while she sat on the opposite side of Fleur and watched her nursing her baby. "she's falling asleep while she's nursing. I remember that Ginny used to do that all the time." She commented as Fleur bent down and kissed the top of her daughter's head before turning over to look at her mother in-law.

"Yes a lot of babies do that. Johnny did that as well." She told her.

"How is Johnny? What does he think about a new baby being present inside the house?" Mrs. Weasley asked her.

"Well he tries to ignore her as much as possible but he does tend to get jealous of her. Every now and then he'll come over and give her a kiss which leads me to believe that deep down he really does love her, but I think he just needs some time getting used to her." She replied when all of a sudden Ron walked over to their table.

"Sisters are like that. I mean Ginny's the best and I have to think it's because she grew up with six brothers. But Eve on the other hand, it took me over a century to get used to her so imagine how Harry must have felt." He said.

"Ron, Harry loves all of his brothers and sisters to bits." His mother began. "Besides, if it wasn't due to the fact that Heather was born she would be the only girl in her family as well." She pointed out when suddenly Eve grabbed ahold of her knees and performed a cannonball off in the distance behind them.

"Well, I can tell you one thing. I feel sorry for Snape. Eve's fourteen years old now which means that there's only two more to go before she's allowed to start dating." Ron said.

"And a year after that she starts driving and she'll be graduating Hogwarts and be considered an adult witch." Fleur said but Ron just simply rolled his eyes at her.

"Oh please, don't remind me. That means that she'll be able to do magic whenever she wants to. I'm telling you Fleur enjoy Amber's childhood while it lasts. Life is a whole lot easier when you don't have to worry about what kind of spells and hexes that they'll perform when they get older." He said before he turned around and walked away heading straight towards the table where Eve's birthday cake sat magically slicing itself.

"Hey Ron." Jerry said while he picked up his own plate and started to eat. "Wow, I've never been to a witch's birthday party before." He said.

"Yes you have. Remember you met Eve at her last one last year when she had turned thirteen." Ron reminded him.

"Oh yeah that's right, I completely forgot about that. Wow, it's amazing how fast time seems to fly. I can't believe that we've known each other for a year already." Jerry said as Ron grabbed his own plate of cake and jabbed his fork in it.

"Yeah tell me about it. It seems like just yesterday Harry and I met but in reality we were only five. That was over a decade ago. Who knows, maybe someday Harry and I will eventually settle down and get married and have children of our own. But right now we have very busy lives as it is with our band and everything. It'll happen for us when it's supposed to though." He said before both of the wizards started eating their cake together.
