Wasted time?
Harry waved Charlie off as he left for work, great he was alone again to do nothing as usual. Sighing he sat down in front of the fire watching as it danced about. The house was sparking clean! He had gotten so bored he had cleaned it from top to bottom and with permission from Charlie had organised every draw and cupboard. Why did male pregnancies have to be so delicate? How often was he stuck in the house because the press were too pushy or the threats on his life for being pregnant.
"Argh I have nothing to do!" Hitting a cushion Harry gave a huff. He couldn't visit the Burrow considering Molly was out on errands herself and if he ran into Ginny he knew he would lose his temper he had already blown her room up in anger. He had no books to read either! Hermione would be proud of him for reading them all and he actually understood what they were about! His room had already been decorated and the baby stuff had been organised the other week. "I am so bored!"
He refused to watch the television every day he didn't want to get in a habit of watching it whenever he was bored he wanted to be able to do something productive, he went so far as to order all the books he would require for his healing training he could study them! In two weeks when they actually arrived, what was he to do now?
"I'll learn a new language! Wait..." He needed books to do that he couldn't go out without having another person. "Paint? Write? Bake wait no I already do that..." So far everyone who knew Harry had a box of baked goods. "Why haven't I got a hobby?" Letting his body slide to the right he lay himself out on the couch. He had spent so many years fighting to stay alive he never developed his own hobby, Hermione was SPEW she still kept that up while Ron was Quidditch and Harry, well he was trying not to die.
Groaning for the hundredth time that morning Harry pulled himself up, he was finding something to do even if it meant tearing this place apart to find it!
Charlie stepped through the floo his eyes going wide as soon as he saw the mess that greeted him. "Harry?"
"Yes?"
"Erm, is there a reason our living room is covered in everything we own?" Raising a brow he watched as Harry poked his head out of Charlie's bedroom.
"No reason!" Harry disappeared back into the room leaving Charlie to the pile of stuff in the living room. Shaking his head he shoved a few things off and sat down on the couch he wasn't even going to touch a thing last time he tried to help he got thrown out. Maybe he could buy dinner for them tonight it seemed Harry was on a roll with whatever he was doing.
"What do you want for dinner?"
"Chinese! My usual please!" Harry stepped over the piles of clothes and books and made it into the living room. "Make sure to get those cracker things too!"
"Alright I can do that." Kissing Harry on the cheek he headed out to their usual Chinese takeout.
Smiling Harry looked around the room...maybe he should make some room for them to eat. With a flick of his wand a few piles moved out of the way leaving the coffee table free they could sit on the floor it wouldn't kill them. Nodding Harry grabbed two pillows and put them on the floor one for him and one for Charlie. Careful of the books next to him Harry sat himself down and relaxed his legs out, man he had been on his feet all day moving things around.
He finally figured out what to do with his spare time, he was going to build a small area for him to study at! So far he had cleared out all their rooms and had everything in piles; they had a reason behind each of them. His room was finished but Charlie's was a bit of a mess but he would sort that! Hopefully by the time he got the rooms sorted and built his study area in the corner, his books would come and he could fill his time with his theory work.
So far Harry had planned the first five years of his baby's life out and Charlie had agreed, up until pre-school Harry would stay at home with the child but when it went to school then Harry would go back to work. It would take five years to pass his Healer's training the first three he could do at home but the last two required him to do some actual work but he was going to let Molly babysit around that time, so far it was planned and he was happy.
"Food!"
"Yah!" Wiggling on the spot Harry watched as Charlie placed the food in front of him he really was rather hungry.
Setting down Charlie chuckled as Harry tore into the food. "So is there a reason for all this?"
"Building a small study area in that corner." Nodding towards the corner closest to the door Harry looked back at his food. "Got all the books that are useful going to put them on the new bookshelves and then put the rest of the stuff in order and not shoved under the bed like you did before."
"Didn't think you would find that..." Smiling sheepishly Charlie felt a little guilty he had moved the stuff from Harry's room to under his bed and never told Harry he had done it. "Sorry..."
"Gave me something to do, you know I get bored staying at home."
"I know, but mum said she was going to show you some of the stuff she did when she was staying at home." His mother was a stay at home wife and she did get bored before she started having more children. "Ginny was told she wasn't welcome to stay at the Burrow so it's okay to go there now."
"She was?"
Charlie gave a small nod he wasn't going to tell Harry the reasons he was kicked out, considering his mother had caught Ginny selling personal items and information on Harry and was planning on breaking into their home to plant Merlin knows what in his food. He had felt bad for her once, a long time ago but the past few months she had gone too far with her 'Oh woe! Pity me!' routine.
"Mhm, all sorted now." Finishing off his food Charlie rested his back against the couch. "When is the next appointment with your Healer."
"Next week, I made sure you had it off! We get to find out if we have a boy or girl!" Bouncing a little Harry gave a small grin; he really wanted a little boy who he could spoil rotten.
Nodding Charlie pulled Harry's pillow towards him, a guilty pleasure being able to get cuddles from Harry. "Don't worry Annie would skin me alive if I missed your scan, she wants a picture as well."
"Okay!"
They really did have to start thinking baby names.
