Chapter 10

August 2nd, 2000

It took Harry a couple days to comprehend what Alex had just sent him. She was pregnant. He was going to have 3 kids. Hermione was acting very cold towards him. She was barely speaking to him and they weren't even sleeping in the same bed.

Harry got the nerve to write Alex back after a couple days.

Alex,

Can we meet up?

Harry

Harry went to work after he sent the message back to Alex. When he came home from work, Hermione was already in bed. There was a reply on the dining room table that was already opened.

Harry,

Meeting up sounds great! I wanted to talk about our future and everything else. Can we meet tomorrow?

Alex

He assumed that Hermione read the letter. He etched a reply back to Alex and laid down on the couch.

August 3rd, 2000

Harry talked to Hermione and she agreed to go to meet with Alex. When they got to the muggle restaurant that Harry told her to meet them at, Alex was sitting at a table. She was already showing.

"Hello Harry. And you." Alex said.

"Hi. So what I want to know is how far along you are?" Harry asked.

"I am 15 weeks as of yesterday."Alex said.

"Well, I want you to go to St. Mungos and have a paternity spell done on you. I will be there so it can be done. I want to make sure that I know whether the child is mine or not." Harry said.

"Ok, I can agree to that. I will see you next week then." Alex said as she got up and walked out.

When Harry and Hermione walked out of the restaurant, they both went back to their home. As soon as they walked in the door Hermione started yelling.

"How could you be so irresponsible? I can't believe you would ruin our family by getting that slut pregnant!" Hermione yelled.

"OK, hold on a second. First of all, we don't even know if the baby is mine! And second of all, everytime we had sex we used a contraception spell!" Harry said.

"Are you sure? Can I trust what you say when that baby turns out to be yours?" Hermione asked.

"IT IS NOT MINE. I KNOW IT ISN'T." Harry said.

"Okay, I believe you." Hermione said as she walked over to him. "I am so sorry I have been so distant, I just was so disappointed in you and I couldn't even handle looking at you."

She planted a deep kiss on his lips and they embraced each other.

"I love you Hermione and I would never lie to you, ever." Harry said.

"I love you too, Harry." Hermione said.

August 10th, 2000

Hermione woke up that morning feeling a little off, she laid in bed for quite a while just thinking. She worried about the paternity spell and if the baby would turn out to be Harry's. She worried about how Harry would deal with having three kids, all about the same age. She worried about her life if Harry chose to be with Alex, therefore having to raise twins on her own. All the worrying was making her cramp up, so she decided to make herself a hot bath. As soon as she sat up, she had a sharp pain shoot through her back; she dismissed it as being a false labor contraction.

Hermione took her wand out and started to do some laundry, folding some of Harry's t-shirts and his jeans. Due to them going to America soon, they had to go out and buy muggle clothing. She had to admit, looking at these clothes; Harry looked very sexy in them. She folded the rest of the clothes and put them away in the dresser. She went over to the sink and started to do the dishes when she got another sharp shooting pain throughout her lower back. She knelt down to the ground doubled over taking in deep breaths. She knelt for a couple more seconds, and then got back up when the pain subsided. She began to go back to doing her dishes. When she finished them, she went into the living room and grabbed her television remote and flipped to her favorite movie channel.

Harry walked in from work at his new job, being an undercover Auror in the US. Hermione was dozed off in the living room, probably worked herself too hard, Harry thought. He did notice when he walked over that she winced every couple minutes. He sat down next to her and grabbed her hand. When he did that, she awoke and looked at him.

"Hey." Hermione said.

"Hey, are you feeling okay? I noticed when I walked over that you were wincing in your sleep. Are you having contractions?" Harry asked.

"No, I think it is just false labor. It has only happened a couple times today. It is getting close, though. I can feel it." Hermione said.

"I want you to let me know if your pains get close together. I am thinking you are about to go into labor, but I want you to let me know when it begins to be unbearable." Harry said as he got up and helped her to the bedroom. When they got into the bedroom, he put a couple towels down where she normally laid down, and gestured her to lie down. He propped her up with pillows and turned on her movie channel for her.

"Please yell for me if ANYTHING happens. I mean anything. I will be out making dinner." Harry said. "I just want you to relax."

"Ok." Hermione said as she relaxed in the bed. Harry walked out of the bedroom. No more than ten minutes after he walked out of the bedroom, Hermione felt a gush of water come out of her, followed by a very intense sharp pain throughout her back. She began to panic, not wanting to tell Harry. She tried to get up and walk to the bathroom, but more fluid came out of her and started to mix with blood. She began to panic more and started crying very loudly.

"HARRY! MERLIN! PLEASE HELP ME!" Hermione screamed.

Soon she heard Harry running down the hall and into the bedroom. When he looked at her he noticed that she was squatting with a puddle underneath her mixed with blood.

"Hermione, we need to get you to the hospital!" Harry said panicking.

"I CAN'T MOVE ANYWHERE! IT HURTS SO BAD! I CAN'T DO THIS! I'M GOING TO DIE!" Hermione said as she fell on the ground crying uncontrollably. More and more blood was coming out of her and she was turning white.

"Hermione, I am serious, if we don't get you to the hospital, things could go seriously wrong." Harry tried to sound calm, but inside he was a wreck.

Hermione was screaming at the top of her lungs, in so much pain. Harry knelt down in front of her.

"Please. I am begging you. I will help you up, and I will grab a couple towels to set in the front seat of the car. We have to get to the hospital. I don't want to lose you or the babies." Harry said starting to cry.

Hermione nodded and she started to try to raise herself up when another contraction hit her and she screamed again crashing against Harry crying.

"I am so sorry Hermione; I don't know what to do." Harry said crying uncontrollably. Hermione's contraction subsided and he walked her out to the car, Hermione holding a towel in between her legs. Her bleeding was getting worse.

Harry hurried up and rushed her to the hospital. When they got in a nurse rushed over to them.

"Fiancée…Labor...Bleeding...Horrible...Please." Harry gasped, out of breath.

"Ok, please sit in this wheelchair and rush her to the 3rd floor, Labor and Delivery. Use that elevator to the left." The nurse said.

"Thanks." Harry said as he rushed her over to the elevator. When they got to the 3rd floor, the nurse at the desk rushed over and took Hermione to room 427. Harry followed right behind.

"Ok Hermione you are going to have to get into this gown for us, please. Then we will check you to see how far along in labor you are." The nurse said.

She closed the curtain and placed the gown on. Then she laid down in the bed and Harry opened the curtain back up.

The nurse placed some gloves on her hands, and placed a monitor on Hermione's belly. Harry heard the two heartbeats as soon as the nurse placed the monitor on.

"Ok, I am going to need you to bring your knees up and spread your legs. I am going to check your cervix." The nurse said. Hermione did as the nurse asked, and the nurse checked her.

"Ok, you are about 8cm dilated right now. At 10cm you will be ready to push. Unfortunately we can't give you any pain medicine; you are too far advanced in labor. I will be back to check you in 20 minutes." The nurse said.

Hermione screamed in pain again as she had another contraction. Harry held her hand, feeling nothing but sympathy for her. The contractions were now 5 minutes apart.

The nurse came back in about 20 minutes later and checked her again.

"Wow, you are now 10 cm dilated, let me go get the doctor so we can deliver these babies." The nurse said removing her gloves and walking out of the room.

"I am not ready for this…AHH! I NEED TO PUSH!" Hermione said as she had another contraction. The doctor came in soon after.

"Ok, Hermione I don't want you to push yet, I need you to wait, no matter how bad the urge is." The doctor said.

"I…CAN'T…HOLD…ON…MUST…PUSSSSHHH!" Hermione gasped as she attempted to push, grunting trying not to.

The doctor situated himself in front of her and lifted the blanket and placed a blue sort of towel below Hermione.

"Ok, go ahead and push!" The doctor said. Hermione screamed and pushed down with all her strength.

"OH MERLIN, I FEEL EVERYTHING! IT HURTS SO BAD!" Hermione screamed.

"Ok, part of baby A's head is out, push again for me!" The doctor said.

Hermione screamed again pushing with all her might.

"Ok, you passed the shoulders! One more push!" The doctor said and as she pushed the doctor pulled the baby out and got a tube and shoved it into the baby's mouth and nostrils.

"It's a boy!" The doctor said as they heard a soft cry come from their son. Hermione was crying hysterically while screaming through another contraction. Harry was just stunned, witnessing the most beautiful moment in his life.

"Ok, Hermione we need another push!" The doctor said as Hermione screamed again. "Ok, the head is out, a couple more pushes!" Hermione screamed again and she passed the shoulders. "Alright, one more push and it is all over!" Hermione screamed one last time and the doctor pulled the baby out and did the same with the tube. Harry heard a small cry and started crying leaning against Hermione.

"It's a girl!" The doctor said. The nurse brought their son over wrapped in a blue blanket. He was perfect. He had light brown hair and emerald green eyes.

"Hermione. I am so proud of you. I love you so much." Harry said kissing her forehead.

"I love you too, Harry." Hermione said. She looked extremely exhausted.

Then they brought their daughter over; she had Harry's untidy black hair and emerald green eyes.

"This is the happiest day of my life." Harry said.
