TFM Ch. 9


"Well Landon, you're going to be a big brother." Hermione said, kneeling down to Landon's eye level.

"Really? There is a baby in your belly, mummy?" Landon asked looking at Ginny with his bright grey eyes.

"Yes, darling. Now go and play with Hugo, mummy and Aunt Hermione have to talk." Ginny said and Landon nodded and ran off. "What am I going to do, Hermione? I went and got myself knocked up again! And Draco wants nothing to do with me!" Ginny asked, unsure of what was going on at the present moment in time.

"Well, I think you should tell Draco for one. Then you should tell Seamus the truth about what has gone on between you and Draco." Hermione suggested. Ginny nodded in agreement.

"I think you are right. I might as well start with Seamus." Ginny said.

She said goodbye to Hermione, took Landon and floo'd to her flat. Seamus was sitting there reading a book when he heard the floo. He looked up to see Ginny and Landon walking in.

"Landon, go ahead and go to your room. Mummy has to talk to Seamus." Ginny said pointing Landon to his room.

"Okay mummy." Landon said as he walked to his room. Ginny walked over to Seamus and sat down across from him.

"I have something to tell you. First off, I want to know the truth about your whereabouts when you leave." Ginny asked.

Seamus sat still for a second, then answered her.

"I have been fucking someone else. Simple as that. You don't put out so I get it from someone else." Seamus said calmly. Ginny nodded. "I know you are fucking around on me too. It's Draco, isn't it?"

Ginny nodded. "Yes, it has always been Draco. From the day I met him. He is the love of my life. I made a horrible mistake marrying you." Seamus instantly got a look of disappointment on his face.

"So I guess this is it, then? We are over?" Seamus asked.

Ginny nodded. "Yeah, I guess so. I have one more thing to tell you. I am pregnant again. It is not yours, it's Draco's."

"Well I can't say I expected that. But good luck to you. I know that Draco wants nothing to do with you now, so have fun with that." Seamus hissed sarcastically. He summoned all of his things to himself and shrunk them into a suitcase. "Goodbye, Weasley." Seamus said as he walked out the door. Ginny smiled as she was finally rid of him.


About two weeks later, Ginny and Draco met at the Ministry for their hearing. Ginny brought Landon along, as it was a condition to prove paternity. When Ginny walked around the corner to the hallway to their courtroom, she saw Draco sitting on a bench in front of the door. When Draco looked over at them, his eyes lit up at the sight of seeing his son for the first time.

"DADDY!" Landon said as he ran to Draco and Gave him a great big hug. Ginny looked into Draco's eyes and noticed that he was crying. She started to cry seeing the happiness that he was feeling. She was also crying because of the sadness of keeping Landon from Draco for so long. "I am so glad to finally see you, daddy! Mummy look it is my daddy!" Landon said as he looked at her, his gray eyes gleaming.

"Yes, he is your daddy, Landon." Ginny said, smiling. She wiped the tears from her face. "Okay, Landon you have all the time in the world to catch up but we have to get into the hearing." She grabbed his arm and pulled him into the courtroom.

A member of the Wizengamot sat in front of them and cleared his throat.

"The hearing brought forth today is for the custody of Landon Draco Malfoy, correct?" He said.

"That is correct." Ginny and Draco said.

"And said parents of this child are you, Ginevra Molly Weasley-Finnegan and you, Draco Lucius Malfoy?" He asked.

"That is correct." Ginny and Draco agreed.

"You are well aware that we have to perform a paternity spell on Landon to prove paternity to you, Mr. Malfoy, correct?" He asked.

"Yes, sir." Draco said. Another member of the Wizengamot came in and performed the paternity spell. Somehow the spell also glued itself to Ginny's abdomen and glowed the same color red as what was glowing around Landon. Everyone in the room gasped loudly.

"Ginevra, are you with child?" The man asked.

"Yes, sir." Ginny muttered and Draco's face fell. He looked as shocked as the rest of the court did.

"Well, will you please note that when this child is born, we do not have to do the spell on this child." He said as he wrote some things on a parchment. "Okay, I hereby issue joint custody to the both of you. You will share him every other day. The both of you will be responsible for getting him back and forth to school. Do the both of you agree to what I have issued?"

"Yes, sir." Draco and Ginny agreed.

"Also, I am noting that the unborn child you are carrying, Ms. Weasley-Finnegan, will have the same hearing when he or she is born, is that agreed?" He asked.

"Yes, sir." Ginny agreed.

"Okay, that is all then." the man said as he pounded his gavel down and walked out of the room. The rest of the Wizengamot followed suit. Ginny, Landon and Draco followed.

Ginny shot a quick glance at Draco and noticed that he was glaring at her, throwing daggers, you could say.

Ginny walked over to him. His infuriated look was unmistakable. "Draco-"

"No, how could you go and get pregnant again? Haven't you heard of contraception potions?" Draco interrupted. He paced back and forth down the hallway, then turned back to her. "Astoria and I just started working on things again. I told her everything, our affair and about Landon. She was mad but understanding. We are working on getting our marriage together. Maybe you should too." Draco said as he started to walk away.

Ginny pulled him back, tears falling down her face. "Did you ever once consider my feelings? EVER? Because I don't think you have! You left me five years ago, pregnant and alone! Yes, you didn't know I was pregnant, but that isn't the point. I have raised your son for five years! And where were you? I thought you were dead but turns out, you were just SHAGGING Astoria! You must have not missed me that much!"

Draco hastily pulled her to the side. "You have NO idea what I went through. You didn't know that I was held hostage did you? You had no idea that I was forced to marry Astoria did you? You had no idea that she tricked me into thinking that she was pregnant to get me to marry her did you? Not only that, my father arranged for us to be betrothed and I had no idea. So don't TELL me I haven't missed you. You have no FUCKING idea how much I missed you. I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH GINNY THAT IT HURTS TO EVEN LOOK AT YOU! And now that you are pregnant again, I want nothing more than to marry you right now! But I can't. And you judged me over something you had no idea even went on. Just leave my son here and go." Draco said as he turned away.

Ginny shook her head, guided Landon over to Draco and walked over to a fireplace and floo'd back to her flat.
