Bella and Neville returned home to Spinner's End and were instantly engulfed in hugs from Hermione, Luna, Ginny, Harry, George and Ron. There was a lot of I missed you and squealing until Bella raised her wand and cast a pay attention to me charm and everyone stopped talking.
"Neville and I wanted to tell you all that I'm pregnant" Bella said. Before she had time to react, she was suddenly engulfed in more hugs from Hermione, Luna and Ginny; who kept saying congratulations. At the same time, Neville had Harry, George and Ron patting him on his back; also telling him congratulations.
Bella saw that Luna was staring around like she had something to get off her chest. Luna cleared her throat and everyone turned to look at the pretty, petite blond. George stepped over and took his place next to her, "well, since happy news is going around today, George and I have decided to tell all of you that we're getting married" Luna said; as Bella was the first to engulf her in a giant bear hug.
"I'm so happy for you" Bella squealed as everyone took turns congratulating the happy couple. Luna, Hermione and Ginny decided to give Bella a break and forced her to sit down; while they cooked.
The girls cooked a wonderful meal that consisted of hamburgers, cooked chicken, vegetables, mashed potatoes and fruit punch.
After supper, Ron and George challenged Harry and Neville to a game of Wizard's Chess. Meanwhile, the girls started talking about baby names and planning Luna and George's wedding.
When they decided to turn in, Bella unlocked the spare bedroom and her and Neville slept in there, while Hermione, Luna and Ginny slept in her room and Harry, George and Ron slept in another spare room.
While lying on Neville's chest, Bella suddenly sat up and started to cry. Neville put his arms around her; to comfort her as he saw that she was having a nightmare; probably about her dad again.
Bella eventually stopped crying and layed her head back down on Neville's chest and fell back asleep again.
The next morning, Neville woke up to see that Bella was not in bed. He saw a note on the bed that read:
Dear Neville,
Luna, Hermione, Ginny and I have gone to The Beautiful Lily to go look for a dress for Luna. I didn't want to wake you up, so I didn't wake you up. I'll see you soon and then we can talk about possible baby names for the baby and then this afternoon, I promised that I would visit with Mary, Bobby and Annabeth.
Lots of love,
Bella
Neville smiled as he finished the note, leave it to Bella and the girls to get hyper about an upcoming wedding. He found that the girls had prepared food for the boys before they left so all they had to do was warm the food up using a microwave; which Harry was very familiar with.
The boys decided that it was time to do something, so they went out for a walk and they spent the entire day practicing their spells and they teased George mercilessly about his ability to commit enough that he actually proposed to a girl.
George scowled and he blushed bright red and when they decided to go home, they saw that Hermione, Luna and Ginny had come back but Bella was not with them.
"Where's Bella?" Harry asked Ginny; his girlfriend, "she went over to visit Mary, Bobby and Annabeth" Hermione said; quickly reassuring her best friend.
They spent the afternoon talking and enjoying each other's company. When Bella came back, the girls started preparing supper when there was a POP in the living room. Everyone rushed into the living room and found that Molly and Arthur Weasley had apparated into their home.
"Mum, dad, what are you doing here?" Ginny, George and Ron asked at the same time.
"We want you back home; you have no permission to hang around the Death Eater's daughter ever again" Molly said with authority in her voice; expecting that her sons and daughter would immediately listen to her.
"No, I'm not going to listen to you anymore, I'm getting married to Luna and I want Bella to be there" George said with anger in his voice.
"She's just like my older sister, she's one of my best friends and I will not abandon her" Ginny shrieked at her mother.
"Never, she's been there for us when we lost Fred and I will not have you ruin everything for us" Ron said.
"And we never want to see you again until you accept her as our friend" the 3 siblings said to their parents.
Molly turned beet red and yelled at her children "SHE'S CONVERTING YOU TO THE DARK SIDE! YOU CAN'T LISTEN TO HER OVER ME, NOW COME RIGHT NOW OR I'LL DISOWN ALL OF YOU!"
The 3 of them stared between their mother and their best friends before they all said at the same "disown us then, we don't care. We care more about the people who aren't trying to control our every action".
Arthur then pulled on his wife's arm and with one final glare at her sons, daughter and the people responsible for separating them; they apparated away and everyone breathed out a sigh of relief.
They went about on the rest of their day and when they went to bed, Bella sat up and said "we need to think about baby names". Neville turned around and said "okay, what do you want to name him or her?"
"For a girl, I was thinking about Alice Marie Longbottom" Bella said softly and Neville whispered "perfect".
"And for a boy, I was thinking about Severus Neville Longbottom" she said and once again Neville smiled and he nodded before the happy couple went to sleep; without any worry about anything.
But Bella couldn't help but think about Molly Weasley, she was not just someone who would give up, but she hoped to Merlin that she would not do anything too drastic that would ultimately ruin her future and the future of her children.
