4 months later...
I had been working with the twins and as I got further along in my pregnancy the less they made me do, they even put a chair at the till so when I was on it I wouldn't be standing all the time. They had been really good with me letting me off early, giving me time off for my healer appointments and they even had been paying me extra than I was supposed to be getting. I was getting more nervous knowing Charlie would be home soon and I was wondering how he would react seeing me after all this time thinking that George and I were an item. I was brought out my daydream by Fred "Sam you ok?" He asked and I nodded "yeah sorry just in a world of my own" I said and he chuckled and nodded "are you coming by the burrow for supper tonight?" He asked and I nodded "yeah I can't be bothered cooking anything tonight. This baby is tiring me out, he won't stop moving" I said rubbing my bump and Fred chuckled. "Well George is out with Katie just now, he's meeting us outside" Fred said and I nodded "how is it going with them just now?" I asked "great they are in love right now, I just wonder how long it will take for them to fall out again" he said and I laughed as we began to close up the shop. Fred grabbed a parcel that needed to be posted and George met us outside "you two head off I'll meet you there after I post this" Fred said and George nodded holding his arm out "I'll apparate" he said and I nodded linking my arm with his.
We landed just outside the burrow and George steadied me as I lost my footing "you ok?" He asked and I nodded "yeah thanks" I said and we headed towards the kitchen and I looked up and saw Charlie looking out the kitchen window with a frown on his face. I chuckled "someone's jealous" I said and George nodded grinning "definitely" he said and we headed into the kitchen and Molly smiled "Sam I'm so glad your joining us, look who came home early" she said giving Charlie a hug "mum stop" Charlie whined and I laughed " hi Charlie" I said "hey Sam" he said blankly and the baby kicked me "ouch" I said rubbing my bump and George looked at me worried "are you ok?" He asked placing his hand on my bump and I could see Charlie was pissed. "Yeah they just kicked that's all" I said and Molly smiled "come Sam I've got some stuff for you" she said holding her hand out and I nodded going over and she guided me out the room. "I kept all my baby stuff and I thought maybe you would want it" she said and I smiled and nodded "thank you I would love that" I said and she grinned. She was showing me everything when we heard a commotion down in the kitchen and we rushed downstairs and Fred was pulling George away from Charlie and bill was pulling Charlie away. "Stay the hell away from her!" Charlie snapped and my eyes widened "Charlie stop!" I said and he looked at me "your pregnant with my baby sam, you shouldn't be together with my brother" he snapped and the kitchen went silent. "Your baby" Molly said firmly "your the father that wouldn't stand up" she added and Charlie sighed.
"Mum hear me out" Charlie said "everyone out" she said and they all left bar Charlie and me, "the pair of you sit down" she said and we followed her instructions. "Mum..." Charlie started "don't mum me you got a girl pregnant and you weren't going to step up! That is not the way you were raised Charlie!" Molly snapped and he looked down at his hands "I know mum" he said and she shook her head "and when was I going to find out that I was having a grandchild?" Molly asked and Charlie looked at me for help.
"I wasn't going to say anything unless Charlie wanted you to know" I said "how long has he known?" Molly asked "four months" I said quietly "and in that time he hasn't decided what he's wanting to do" Molly said and Charlie shook his head "mum I do know what I want to do, I'm going to step up and be a dad to my child. I don't want to turn my back on them" he said and Molly shook her head "it's taken you four months to decide that, as soon as Sam told you that should have been your reaction!" Molly said "what so you would make me propose to her?" Charlie said and Molly nodded "you two should be married, your having a baby" she said and I looked down at my hands not wanting to get involved in their argument. "I don't want sam thinking I would have only proposed to her because she was pregnant, I would want her to think I proposed because I loved her" Charlie said and Molly shook her head "but you don't, you slept with her then left. Shows you don't think very much of her does it" Molly said and I stood up "look maybe I should go" I said and Molly shook her head "you aren't going anywhere until Charlie apologises for his actions, I'm sorry Sam but you know this isn't how I raised my children" she said and I nodded "I know Molly" I said and she sighed "your breaking my heart Charlie, look at your brothers they've never treated a girl like that. We raised you better" Molly said and Charlie stood up and slammed his fist to the table scaring us "you don't think I know that mum! I've heard it from everyone! Everytime I come home you nag me to find a girl and settle down. It's always about what you want never what I want!" He shouted before storming out the kitchen and Molly started crying. Arthur came into the kitchen and tried to calm Molly down, I slipped out the back door and went off to find Charlie.
I found him in the orchard by the tree he pinned me against the night he showed me around, "that was uncalled for Charlie, your mum didn't deserve that" I said and he sighed "I was just so mad at her ok" he said "mad at her or me?" I asked and he began pacing. "What the hell do you think our doing going after George?" He asked and I laughed raising my eyebrow "going after George, Jesus Charlie I'm pregnant with your baby what do you take me for" I said and he frowned "but bill said you and George had been getting close" he said and I nodded "yes as friends" I said "I'm going to kill bill" Charlie said and I shook my head "it's not nice when people plays with your feelings isn't it" I said rubbing my bump and Charlie sighed "you know I never meant for this to happen" he said and I nodded "I know but it has and now the question is did you really mean it when you said your going to step up and be a dad?" I asked and Charlie nodded "I did and I am, I've been thinking about it since bill came to see me and I was thinking maybe you could come stay in Romania with me" he said
