Chp. 14- Telling Mum

Thanks to everyone that reviewed the last chapter!

Last Time:

Renee nodded and kissed her mum's cheek before skipping out of the room. Ginny smiled and laid back on the bed. She sighed with satisfaction. She heard the door open and looked up. Draco was smiling at her and he laid down next to her. He kissed her softly on the lips.

"Hey luv...How did it go with Renee?"

"Really good actually...She was happy for us."

"Well that's good..."

Draco grinned at Ginny, who was grinning back at him. They cuddled together, just enjoying each other's company.

They didn't bother changing at all, and fell asleep together, dressed in their clothes still.

Now:

Ginny woke up first and stretched. She felt Draco's arms around her waist and smiled to herself. She carefully removed them and headed to the bathroom to take a shower.

She started it and stripped out of her clothes before getting inside the shower. She stood there for a minute, just letting the water relax her muscles. She washed up quickly and jumped when she felt Draco's arms wrap around her waist.

He chuckled softly, kissing her shoulder tenderly.

"You alright luv?"

"Yes...You just scared me is all."

He nodded and turned her around. He stared down at her with love, and kissed her passionately on the lips. Ginny sighed happily before kissing him back.

They broke apart after several minutes.

"I'm going to go get ready," Ginny whispered as she stared up at her fiance.

Draco nodded and kissed her again quickly. Ginny got out of the shower, wrapping a towel around herself. She headed to her bedroom and looked through her closet. She picked out a pair of dark jeans and a hunter green t-shirt. She slipped them on over her bra and knickers. She left her hair down, brushing through it quickly.

Ginny slipped her black trainers on as Draco came out with a towel wrapped around his waist. He kissed her on the lips before grinning at her.

"I'm going to get dressed. See you in five?"

Ginny nodded and watched Draco leave. She smiled to herself before putting on some light make-up. It was just then that she noticed a letter sitting on her bed. She grabbed it and read it over quickly.

Ginny darling,

Will today work for you at about noon? We could meet at the Three Broomsticks. I will be there, and if you don't show up in ten minutes I will know you can't make it. I hope to see you.

Mum

Ginny breathed deeply. She was going to tell her mum today...and then worry about the rest of the family another day.

She set the letter back down and headed out of her apartment. Draco was waiting for her with a smile. He saw her slightly worried look and grabbed her face in his hands.

"What's wrong Red? Are you ok?"

"Yes I'm fine Draco...I'm meeting my mum at noon at the Three Broomsticks. I'm just a bit nervous about telling her. She still thinks I'm a little girl sometimes..."

Draco kissed her lips, trying to tell her it would all be ok. She got the message and smiled softly.

"I'm sorry I worried you Draco...I'm absolutely fine."

He nodded and grabbed her hand. They made their way to the Great Hall and Ginny saw Renee smiling at them. Ginny smiled back and took her seat at the Head table. She grabbed some food, eating only a small amount. Her stomach was feeling a bit uncomfortable and she didn't want to upset it. Draco kissed her quickly on the cheek.

"I have to get going luv...Are you going to be ok?"

"Yes I'll be perfectly fine. I'll see you at supper Draco."

He nodded before leaving to get ready for classes. Ginny sighed and headed back up to her apartment. She looked at herself in the mirror. She was a bit pale...

She laid on her bed, reading the letter over and over again. She checked the clock and saw it was now ten. She groaned and decided to go outside to walk around before seeing her mum.

Ginny checked to make sure she had her wand before heading towards the front doors. She made her way outside and walked around the Hogwarts grounds before slowly making her way to Hogsmeade. She decided to look around the stores as she waited for noon to come.

She started in the bookstore before going to Zonko's. She looked at the clock and saw it was now 11:55. She headed over to the Three Broomsticks and ordered two butterbeers. Rosmerta smiled at her.

"How's Renee doing?"

"She's wonderful. She just loves Hogwarts..."

"Yes it's magnificent to be there, especially for the first year."

Ginny nodded in agreement, remembering her first year. She shivered slightly and grabbed the two butterbeers. She paid and then sat at an empty table in the middle of the room.

She sipped on the butterbeer, waiting for her mum to come. She came in two minutes later and smiled when she saw Ginny. She hurried over to her daughter, hugging her tightly.

"It's wonderful to see you again dear. How's the flying coming?"

"I haven't started teaching yet mum...I have two more days and then I finally get to teach them."

Mrs. Weasley nodded and sipped on the butterbeer sitting in front of her.

"So what was the big news?"

Ginny took another sip before clearing her throat.

"Something's happened...and I'm very happy about it."

"You're pregnant again," Mrs. Weasley gasped as she stared at her daughter.

"Um not that I know of mum...That's not the news."

"Oh then what is it?"

Ginny took a deep breath. Best just to get it over with quickly she thought to herself.

"Draco has asked me to marry him and I've said yes."

Mrs. Weasley stared at her daughter, and then looked down at Ginny's left hand. She saw the big diamond ring and then looked back up at Ginny's face.

"Are you positive that's what you want?"

"Yes...I love him still mum...I don't think I ever stopped loving him."

"Ok. Well when do you want to tell everyone else?"

"I was thinking at our next family gathering. Draco said he wants to come as well so he's there when I tell everyone."

"That's probably wise...Well if you're happy then I'm happy for you dear."

Ginny grabbed her mum's hand and smiled.

"Thank you mum. This means a lot to me."

The two women discussed Renee and how everything was going since they had last seen each other. Ginny was shocked when she realized it was almost supper time when they stopped talking.

"I'd better get going back to the school. I promised Draco I'd be at supper. So I'll see you at Christmas for sure, and probably before that..."

Mrs. Weasley nodded and hugged Ginny.

"Yes we'll see you then dear. Draco is invited of course. Well have a good time dear."

Ginny waved goodbye as her mum apparated back home. She walked quickly to the castle, and as she walked into the corridor, she heard noise coming from the Great Hall. Supper was already started. She walked in and hurried to the Head table. Draco was already eating and was looking around nervously.

He instantly relaxed when he saw Ginny walking towards him. She sat down next to him and smiled.

"There you are. I was getting worried. So how did it go?"

"It went good. Mum took it well and said she was happy for me. So now all we have to do is tell everyone else. When are you telling your parents?"

Draco groaned at this. He didn't want to tell his parents anything, but he knew he had to. Ginny rolled her eyes as she started eating.

"I suppose I should write them to tell them about us being engaged."

"You're going to write them about our engagement," Ginny asked incredulously.

Draco shrugged before replying, "Yeah..."

"You're terrible," Ginny replied with a laugh and smile.

Draco grinned back at her. They ate and when they were done, Draco grabbed her hand and made their way to her apartment. He pulled her to her bedroom, and they fell on the bed.

He wrapped his arms around her waist, resting his head above her's. Ginny had her head resting against his chest and sighed with happiness.

"I love you Red," she heard Draco whisper into her hair as she started to fall asleep.

"I love you too," Ginny whispered back.

She snuggled closer to him, and right before she fell asleep she heard Draco whisper one last thing.

"You made me the happiest man alive when you agreed to marry me Ginny..."

Ginny feel asleep with a big smile upon her face.

I hope you all liked it. I can't wait to get your reviews about the chapter. I know it's not very long but it gives you some more information. I think the flying lesson might be in the next chapter but it might be in the one after that. I'm not sure exactly. Well please review!
