Consequences of Your Actions
"So Hermione how long are you going to be staying with us?" Fred asked from the front seat of the mini-van.
"I don't know, a few months for sure."
"Great you can help me and George with some of our new products; we're having a hard time getting one of the charms right."
"Yeah, instead of making hair sprout all over your body, it makes hair sprout inside your mouth." Charlie said from his seat in the very back of the van. Hermione grimaced.
"Maybe I'll help you." Hermione said.
She then listened to the five family members catch up on news and business. Twenty minutes later found them driving up to the Weasley home; where Molly, George, Percy, Bill, and Fleur, who was eight months pregnant, were all waiting. Everyone piled out of the car while Fred and Arthur floated all of the luggage up to the house.
Ron and Ginny each walked to their mother and gave her a hug, then Molly turned to Hermione to hug her. Molly wrapped her arms around Hermione's shoulders and drew her into a tight hug. Almost as soon as Molly had pulled Hermione to her she nearly let go; Hermione flushed red and quickly pulled away from Molly.
Molly quickly turned and hugged Harry, and asked how he was doing. As soon as he had answered Molly sent everyone into the house; holding back Hermione, Harry, and Ron.
"I want an explanation; now!" Molly demanded as soon as the backdoor was shut.
"Whatever it is we didn't do it!" Ron and Harry said at the same time.
"They don't know anything!" Hermione said just after them. Molly gave Harry and Ron a skeptical look.
"Go inside!" Molly said to Harry and Ron. They looked from Hermione to Molly, then ran inside the house.
"How far are you?"
"Five months." Molly's jaw dropped.
"I would have put you for seven at least." Hermione smiled.
"I'm having three. Two girls and a boy. But how did you know? I have a concealment charm on."
"Not anymore dear. I have several wards around this house and yard that prevent any sort of concealment charm." Hermione looked down to see that her clothes were stretched to accommodate her belly. Hermione looked at Molly who was smiling broadly.
"Ron isn't the father. Nor is Harry."
"Well then who is it?" Molly asked.
"I'm not sure I should say. . ."
"Hermione Jane Granger I demand to know! You're as good as a daughter to me and I want to know what man would get you into trouble and not have the decency to marry you!" Hermione smiled; this is what she had hoped for form her parents. It was support.
"Only if you promise to let me explain everything before forming an opinion."
"I swear." Molly said.
"It's Professor Snape."
"Holy shit!" They both heard from the back door. Hermione turned around to see everyone crowded around the window in the back door.
"Ronald Weasley, watch your language." Molly yelled.
"Let's take this inside and I'll explain to -everyone-." Hermione said, pointedly looking at everyone in the house. The two women walked into the house and once everyone settled at the dining table.
"There was a prophecy made 8 years ago by Professor Trelawny though Professor McGonagall only heard part of it."
"But before each night twelve dreams for two things that are forbidden. One's thirst, not of water but nature, is quenched by the other. From these sins come three babes to make innocent them who have yet crimes committed."
"She predicted that a professor and a student would have a shared dream line. Professor Snape and I started to have dreams, of a sexual nature, and they were the same exact dream. Due to some very powerful magic I was taken from my room to his, where we had sex and I became pregnant. Neither of us did anything wrong." Molly's features did not soften though.
"That still doesn't explain why he hasn't married you." Molly said, obviously outraged.
"Because I don't want to do anything rash."
"Rash?! 'Mione your pregnant!" Harry said.
"Yes I know, but I could not do anything to prevent that."
"Well you know what this means . . ." Ron started.
"Now we can't play two-on-two quidditch." He said disappointedly. Everyone at the table laughed; Ron had a knack for lightening situations.
"Well everyone's dismissed. Lunch will be ready in an hour." Harry suddenly appeared by Hermione's side, with Ron behind him.
"Hermione can we talk to you for a sec; in the library?" He asked. Hermione nodded her head and followed them to the library. She sat down in an armchair and waited for Ron to shut the door.
"What did you want to talk about?" Hermione asked.
"W-w-well I'm sure you know that we all were listening to you and Molly's conversation." Harry said.
"Yes; quite rude actually." Hermione chastised and Harry and Ron both mumbled a quick apology.
"Well we heard you tell her you were five months pregnant; a-a-and well I -we were just thinking are y-you sure their not one- - -one of ours?" Harry asked. Hermione blushed profusely at the memories that ran to the fore-front of her mind.
Five Months and Three Days Prior
"Guess what I got?" Ron said as he walked into Hermione's rooms; where Hermione and Harry were waiting for him. Ron pulled out from behind his back, two large bottles of Ogden's Fire Whiskey.
"How did you get those?" Harry asked from his seat on the couch.
"Found 'em!" Ron said laughing. Hermione glared at him.
"Ok, so I may have asked Dobby for some help. One of the professors has a serious drinking problem."
"I'd bet you five galleons it's Trelawny!" Hermione said as she grabbed a bottle from Ron's hand and opened it, then downed a mouthful.
"Nah! I bet it's Snape. He strikes me as the type to drink, especially after a Gryffindor/Slytherin class. We give him hell!" They all laughed and Harry transfigured three cups into three shot glasses.
"Why isn't Ginny here?" Harry asked, taking a drink from the second bottle.
"She's got the flu." Hermione said as she filled the three shot glasses.
"What a shame! We're all supposed to be celebrating passing our winter exams." Harry said.
"We'll just have to drink for her." Ron said mischievously after downing his first and second shot and pouring himself another.
"Aye, a drink for Ginny!" Harry said and all three of them drank up.
"Well what drinking game shall we try this time?" Harry asked.
"Truth and Lie. We each say two things, one a truth and one a lie. The two who are listening to the one telling will discuss and decide which is the truth and which is the lie. If the two are right in guessing the lie, then the liar drinks a shot, but if the two are wrong, they take a shot." Hermione said.
"It's one of my favorites." Hermione said; she could lie quite convincingly.
"Good, you can go first." Ron said as he filled the shot glasses.
"Ok; but first things first! A toast, to passing our winter exams with nothing lower than a 'B'!" The three teens raised their glasses and downed their shots.
"Now, as a little girl my favorite book was Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Now my favorite book is Phantom." Both Ron and Harry looked at each other and Ron held up two fingers and Harry nodded.
"The second was the lie. You've never even talked about that book." Hermione was a little shocked that they had paid that much attention to her. She picked up her shot glass and downed the whiskey.
"You're next Ron." Harry said.
"As a kid I had all but two cards from the Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. Now I have all but four of the cards for the Chudley Canons." Hermione looked at Harry, utterly baffled. She had no idea that Ron collected anything.
"I'll have to say that the second is the lie." Harry said. "I'm pretty sure you have all the Chudley Cannon Cards." Ron shook his head.
"No I'm missing four of them. I did collect all of the cards From Bertie Bott's. Drink up!" Ron said pushing their glasses towards them.
"Alright Harry your turn."
"Ok; let's see. My first kiss was with a girl named Catherine down the street from the Dursley's. My first time was with Lavender."
"It's the first one." Ron said.
"No; it's the second one." Hermione argued.
"His first kiss was with Cho Chang in fifth year!!" Ron said.
"Yeah right, and I'm a virgin!" Hermione said without thinking; then she blushed profusely, the shots were definitely getting to her.
"You're not a virgin?!?" Both boys exclaimed.
"Back to the game!" Hermione said desperately.
"No, no. Not until you explain that outburst a little more." Harry said.
"It was just some muggle boy that lived down the street from me. He and I were always flirting with each other and then one day it just went a little farther than flirting."
"That's not just a little 'Mione." Ron said, he took another shot from the bottle as he did so.
"Well what ever. Harry's first time was with someone else cause I heard him telling Lavender when he was trying to convince her that it would be a good time!"
"You're sure?" Ron asked.
"Yes, I'm positive."
"Alright the second one." Harry grabbed his shot glass and downed the whiskey.
"So who was it?" Ron asked.
"Oh, no. That's my secret. 'Mione your turn." Harry said, filling his glass and Ron's. Hermione grabbed her glass and took a shot.
"Lost already?" Harry asked playfully.
"No, but to say this, I need a little more liquid courage. - - -I-I have two fantasies. One is to have be with another woman and the other is to be with you two." Hermione said, though she was blushing profusely. Both Ron and Harry were baffled. For this one they huddled together.
"I can't see her with another girl. She's conservative." Ron said.
"Conservative girl's don't want to be with two guys! Besides we're her best friends!" Harry argued back. Ron shrugged his shoulders.
"It's your call mate." He said. Harry looked at Hermione.
"The second one is the lie." Harry said, unsure of himself.
"Drink up boys!" Hermione said laughing. Ron was gawking at her, and Harry was looking at her curiously.
"Harry stop looking at me like that!"
"Like what?" Harry asked innocently.
"Like your going to jump me!" Harry nudged Ron in his side then whispered something in his ear.
"I'm not going to jump you." Harry said, as he moved to sit on the couch next to Hermione. Harry leaned in towards her and she totally missed Ron getting up from his seat and moving to sit behind her on the couch. That was until she leaned back away from Harry and ran into Ron's chest.
"We're going to jump you." Ron said as he leaned in towards her.
Ron brushed his lips against hers. Hermione was hesitant and gasped when she felt Harry attacking her neck. Ron took advantage of her open mouth and slipped his tongue in next hers. Her eyes fluttered closed as new sensations went rampant throughout her body. Harry was sucking and biting at the tender flesh at the joint of Hermione's neck and shoulder while Ron eagerly explored her mouth. Hermione ran her hand up and around to the back of Ron's neck, drawing him closer to her.
Harry's lips traveled lower, following the line of flesh that was exposed as he unbuttoned her shirt. Harry stopped only momentarily to press a light kiss to each milky mound. Hermione moaned as her nipples turned to hard peaks. Harry pushed her shirt off her shoulders and the straps to her bra, freeing her breasts. Ron pulled Hermione's hand from his neck and pulled the shirt off her arms and undid the hook on the back of her bra. Harry slipped that off and tossed it to the side.
Harry took one hard peak into his hot mouth, licking and nipping it lightly. Hermione's breath caught in her throat as a jolt of pleasure shot down her spine. Ron pulled away from her slightly and moved one hand down her side and over her hip, where he pulled down the zipper on her skirt. Harry hooked his fingers around the hem of her skirt and panties and pulled them down. Hermione lifted her hips to let him pull the articles down her legs and off her body. Ron's fingers reached lower and lightly caressed the wet lips. She moaned softly as Ron put a bit more pressure on her, causing his finger to dip between her lips. Her moans went straight to the groins of Ron and Harry, making them instantly hard. Hermione's hands gripped Ron's thighs as she attempted to push closer to those giving her pleasure.
"Too many clothes!" Hermione said as she grabbed at Harry's back, pulling up his shirt and pulling it over his head. He took the cue and pulled it off his body and tossed it to the side.
In Harry's absence Hermione turned around and got on her knees and pulled Ron's shirt off his body and tossed it away as Harry had done. She also pulled down the zip of Ron's trousers and pulled the material down. Ron lifted his hips and Hermione pulled both his trousers and boxers off of him. She let the articles fall to the floor as she gazed at his erection. He was bigger than the few boys she had taken a tumble with, and thicker.
Hermione reached out a hand and experimentally stroked the length of it. Ron groaned and his head rolled back as she reached the head of his cock and rubbed the pad of her thumb over it. Hermione stopped her ministrations as she felt Harry's naked body bent over her, pressed against her; his rigid cock against her bum. He pulled her hair away from her face and whispered into her ear.
"Suck him while I fuck you." He demanded. Hermione glanced at Ron's cock again before nodding in agreement. She lowered her head and grabbed Ron's cock with one hand, while she supported herself with her other, and licked up the length of his cock.
Ron's hands fisted in her hair as she closed her lips around the head of his cock and ducked her head down to take more of him into her mouth. As she came back up she traced patterns over the taut skin of his cock with her tongue. It took all of Ron's self-restraint to keep himself from bucking his hips into her mouth as she moaned around his cock. He looked over to see that Harry had entered Hermione and was slowly pushing in and out of her.
Hermione sucked Ron harder as Harry picked up the pace. Then as Harry hit Hermione's G-spot Hermione swallowed and Ron felt the soft flesh of her throat as she deep throated him.
"Oh sweet Merlin!" Ron said as she went lower and took all of him into her mouth.
She started a bobbing motion as Harry started pounding into her, his hands digging into her hips. Ron lost all of his ability to think coherently as Hermione was moaning and sucking his cock harder. Harry's thrusts became more shallow as he tried to stop himself from coming.
"I can't hold on much longer!" Harry said to Hermione through gritted teeth. She detached herself from Ron and looked back at Harry.
"Then come Harry; Ron can finish me off." That was all it took for Harry. He thrust a few more times into Hermione and then his body went rigid as he poured his seed into Hermione. After a minute he came back down to earth and pulled out of Hermione.
Hermione raised herself to her knees and straddled Ron's lap. She grabbed his pulsing cock and guided it to her entrance; then lowered herself onto him. Ron's hands automatically grabbed her hips as she started to move against him. Ron grabbed the back of her thighs and lifted her up then pulled her back down. He started her at a moderate rhythm that, within a few minutes, turned very fast paced. Hermione was bouncing up and down, holding onto Ron's shoulders for dear life.
"Oh fuck." Ron said as he felt himself losing control.
Harry, who had gotten hard again by watching his two friends getting it on, moved behind Hermione and reached around to her front. His hand slipped down her abdomen and over the curly mound of hair. He found her clitoris and positioned two fingers over it so as she rode Ron, Harry was caressing her clit. Harry then grabbed his own cock and began stroking it in time with each of Hermione's thrusts. This sent Hermione spinning out of control and she rode Ron harder and faster, tilting her hips forward to get more contact on her clit; within minutes all three of them came. Ron slumped back against the couch while Hermione fell back against Harry. After a few minutes Hermione spoke up.
"I think we need to move to the bedroom." Ron got a smirk on his face.
"I don't think we're quite ready for round two yet 'Mione." Ron said. Hermione mustered enough strength to smack Ron on his arm.
"I need a nap before another round with the two of you." She said and then sat up. She moved off of Ron and took a second to gain her balance when she stood up. She found her wand and cast a cleaning spell on herself, then Ron and Harry. She grabbed Ron's hands and yanked him up off the couch.
"Come on, lets go to bed." Hermione said taking each of them by the hand and leading them into her bedroom.
The Next Morning
Ginny wandered down from the Infirmary to the Gryffindor Tower around 10:30 in the morning and was surprised not to see Hermione, Ron, and Harry in the Common Room. They had told her they would wait for her there after she was released from the Infirmary. She decided to check Hermione's rooms, which were just a few halls away. Ginny knocked on the door, but after a three bouts of knocking and no answer, Ginny gave the password and entered the room.
Ginny was a little taken aback at the sight that met her eyes. There were clothes strewn everywhere, the couch pillows were on the floor, one couch cushion was nearly halfway off the couch, and there were two half empty bottles of whiskey along with three shot glasses. Ginny walked towards the couch and took a closer look at the clothing strewn around it. She saw a guys shirt, trousers, and boxers, then she saw another pair of guys trousers and boxers, and then a skirt and panties.
"What went on here?" Ginny asked out loud.
She walked towards Hermione's bedroom door and saw that it was cracked open about five inches. She slowly pushed the door open so it wouldn't make any noise and looked into the semi-lit room. Ginny's eyes were automatically drawn to the bed. Laying there were Ron, Hermione, and Harry covered only to their waist by a sheet. Hermione's front was to Ron's back and one of her arms was draped over Ron's side and she was holding Ron's hand. Harry was at her back and he had a secure grip around Hermione's waist. As she was standing there she saw Hermione start to stir. She contemplated leaving but stayed instead.
"Looks like I missed quite the party." Ginny said as soon as Hermione had her head up off the pillow. Hermione's head whipped around to glare at Ginny.
"What are you doing here?!?" Hermione asked in a whisper.
"You guys weren't in the Common Room. I thought I'd come look for you."
"Get out! I'll be in the living room in a minute." Hermione said in a harsh whisper. Ginny smiled at her and then left the bedroom, shutting the door quietly behind her. A few minutes later Hermione came out in a robe.
"I knew you guys were going to celebrate but, jeez." Ginny said. She straightened up the couch cushions and picked up the pillows as Hermione picked up the whiskey and glasses. With a wave of her wand Ginny had all the clothing articles folded and in a neat pile by the bedroom door. Then Ginny and Hermione took a seat on the couch; that was of course after Ginny cast a sourgify on it.
"Oh shut it! It wasn't planned and I partially blame the alcohol."
"Only partially?" Ginny teased and Hermione blushed.
"Well it only gave me the courage to say something that's been on my mind for a while, but I was in full control of my mind and behavior."
"Well it looks like last night you were quite the busy 'bad girl'. The both of them; I mean my god how did you do it?" Hermione started to open her mouth to answer but Ginny stopped her.
"No! I don't want to know!" Ginny said laughing.
Back to the Present
"Harry, Ron; the prophecy made it clear that these children belong to the one who shared the dreams with me. That would be Severus, and Severus alone."
"Are you sure?" Ron asked.
"We want to help you; to be there for you if they're one of ours." Harry said.
"I'll tell you what. I will learn to cast a paternity charm and once I have I will perform one. Will that help to put your minds at ease?" Both boys nodded their heads.
"Until then you can treat me like a queen if you like, just to be on the safe side." All three of them laughed. Ron got out of his chair and opened the library door and walked out. Harry started to follow him.
"Aren't you coming Hermione?" He asked.
"I'm going to look in here for a book that may contain the paternity charm." She said. Harry smiled and left the library.
Hermione got up from her seat and browsed the few shelves that were in there. Molly had seven children, surely she would have a few books on pregnancy. Hermione moved around the room until she spotted a promising looking book.
"What do you have there Hermione?" Molly asked as she saw Hermione coming out of the library with the book.
"Common Charms in Aid of Pregnancy." Hermione said.
"Oh? Were you looking for a specific charm?" Molly asked as she set some knives to cut potatoes.
"Y-No. I was just in the library and saw the book. Is there anything in here to help with altering like my jeans and stuff?" Hermione covered quickly.
"I think there's an elastic charm in there." Hermione nodded her head and then walked up the stairs to her's and Ginny's room.
"Hey Gin." Hermione said as she took seat on the edge of her bed.
"What did Harry and Ron want to talk to you about?"
"That night. They wanted to make sure the babies weren't theirs. Now I have to find a paternity charm to convince them the babies aren't theirs." Hermione said as she opened the book.
"You guys didn't use anything?" Ginny asked.
"I was on muggle birth control."
"Then how did Snape get you pregnant?"
"That was my question. Evidently my magic turns the pill into a fertility treatment."
"Then how can you be so sure that the babies aren't one of theirs?"
"Well because the prophecy said that the babies would belong to the one who I shared the dreams with."
"No it didn't. It said 'From these sins come three babes.' No where in there does it say that the babies belonged to that one person. And you said yourself that, that's only part of the prophecy. Maybe there's more to it; I mean after all maybe in the beginning of the prophecy it says something about the three of you. It does say from these sins, if it was just you and Snape, that's just one sin."
"You drive me crazy! I have turned you into me, all logic and not able to just accept things." Ginny just grinned.
"But you know I am right. You can't deny the logic."
"I know." Hermione said as she scanned the Table of Contents. Finally she spotted the paternity charm. She flipped to page 83 and smiled.
"Find the charm?" Ginny asked as she looked at Hermione's smile.
"Yeah and it is very simple." Ginny stopped unpacking her trunk and watched Hermione read over the instructions and then set the book next to her. Hermione pulled her shirt up over her abdomen.
"Pater Feti!" She said as she made three quick figure 8 patterns and drew her wand in a circle around her abdomen.
Both Ginny and Hermione watched as three colors appeared on Hermione's abdomen; one color covering only the portion of the baby it represented. Red appeared at the top right of her abdomen, where one of the girls was, yellow was next to that, where another girl was, and orange appeared underneath those, where the boy was. Ginny looked up at Hermione's face to see that she was utterly confused.
"What's that mean?" Ginny asked.
"What?" Hermione asked coming out of her daze.
"I asked what the three different colors mean."
"Oh. It shows the order they were conceived. Red for first, orange for second, and yellow for third." Hermione said, closing the book.
"It doesn't tell you who the father is?"
"Yeah it does, umm, the father's aura will match that of the first baby conceived."
"But how do you know who it is?"
"Oh, the father will have the aura around him until the baby's born."
"But is there more than one father?"
"No, no. Just Severus."
"Lunch is ready!" They turned to see Ron at their door and Harry walking behind him into his and Ron's room. Ginny walked out the door and turned around.
"Aren't you coming?" Ginny asked.
"Yeah, I'll be down in a sec." Hermione said; Ginny smiled and continued down stairs. Hermione opened the book again and read the passage on the meaning of the colors.
'In the event there is more than one child conceived the colors will descend in the following order: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Black, and White. These follow the order in which each child was conceived and the father's aura will match that of the first child conceived. In the event of multiple fathers the previous statement still applies.
Example: If the father of the second child conceived differs from the father of the first child conceived then the second father's aura will be orange and the first father's aura will be red.
"Congratulations Harry and Ron, you're going to be dads."
