a/n: Ok so some people like the name Kaia...and others like Addison. I personally like...well you can read and find out. If you'd like an explanation on why I chose the name I chose you can see the bottom. I hope no one is mad at me for not picking which name they wanted.

"Do you realize that she was born on Halloween?" Ron asked as we sat in my hospital room, waiting for the baby to come back.

"Yeah." I smiled. "Can you imagine every year on Halloween we throw her this big birthday party and she dresses like a little princess?"

"Or a Quidditch player." Ron shrugged. I laughed. I was sleep deprived and worn out but at least I was clean and changed from the very uncomfortable hospital gown. I was now wearing a gray pair of "best mommy in the world" print pajama pants and a matching tank top that was a gift from Ginny. I had on a red robe and was settled comfortably into a hospital bed. The room was full with all of the balloons and bears Arthur had bought and Ron was wearing an "I'm A Daddy" t-shirt that was a gift from Ginny as well.

"Or a Quidditch player." I agreed. "We'll let her choose as soon as she gets old enough."

"Agreed." Ron said. The smile had not fallen from his face since the second our daughter had been born. He was one happy guy and I was one happy gal. Reality hit that we were two happy parents and the thought made me smile.

"Ready for your baby, mum and dad?" The nurse asked, coming into the room. Ron stood up and met her halfway. He lifted the baby out of the rolling bassinet that she was in.

"Hi baby." Ron said, reaching out for her little fingers.

"I'll just leave you three for now." The nurse said. Ron came and sat next to me on the bed.

"I still can't believe it." I said, staring at the face of my beautiful baby girl. "She's so little and so gorgeous…she's ours." Ron looked up and smiled at me. Tears poured down my face for what must have been the millionth time since I went into labor.

"Believe it, this amazing little girl is ours." Ron said.

"Mind if we come in?" I turned my head to the door where Harry, Ginny, Neville, Luna, Sasha, and Trey were all entering.

"Come in!" I said, smiling.

"Oh my god, she's so beautiful." Ginny said. She was the first one to hold the baby. Everyone else surrounded my bed.

"Molly and your mum stopped by the nursery to see her and then they went to go get some coffee. They said they're going to stop in as we're done." Harry said to me. Ginny passed the baby to Harry and took out her trusty camera again.

"The nurse said two at a time." Sasha said with a grin. "But the four of us didn't want to wait."

"I'm so glad you're all here." I said, smiling at my friends in front of me.

"Can I hold her?" Luna asked. Harry passed my baby along to Luna.

"I can't believe she's your baby." Neville said, watching Luna and the baby. "It's weird but I think I want my own too." Luna grinned at Neville and slowly passed my baby to him.

"She's really something." Harry said, holding Ginny. "That's my goddaughter."

"And soon she'll have a little cousin." Ginny said, rubbing her stomach.

"She can't wait." I informed Ginny as Neville passed my daughter to Sasha.

"So what's this little adorable girl's name?" Trey asked, looking over Sasha's shoulder at my daughter. I looked up at Ron while Sasha handed me my baby back.

"You pick between the two. I like them both." I said and looked down at my daughter.

"All right." Ron said, "In honor of her Aunt Ginny…her name is Kaia." I froze when I heard the name. My baby definitely didn't look like a Kaia and she definitely did not feel like a Kaia either. Tears started to pour down my cheeks and I couldn't control them but I didn't want to hurt Ginny's feelings.

"I don't think she's a Kaia either." Ginny said. I looked up at her. Ginny smiled at me. "She's not." She assured me.

"Well then I guess her name is Addison." Ron said. I sobbed a little louder.

"No, that's not her name either." I said while more tears poured down my cheeks. Neither of those names felt right now that she was here.

"Well then, we're back to the drawing board." Ron said.

"You could always use Harriett." Harry suggested. It was meant for a joke but I glared at him anyways.

"This isn't funny. My daughter doesn't have a name." I said, looking down at her. She was sleeping in my arms. "Naming her a stupid name isn't going to work." I said.

"It's not stupid." Harry protested. "You'd be naming her after me."

"Naming her after you?" Ron asked, looking as he just had an epiphany.

"We are not naming our daughter Harriett." I said.

"No, what if we gave her a name with meaning?" Ron asked. "Like Willa."

"That's my middle name!" Ginny announced, her face lighting up. Ron smiled at her.

"Willa Weasley?" I asked, mulling the name over and looking at my daughter. "What if we used Elizabeth as her middle name?" I suggested.

"That's my mum's middle name." Ron said, smiling.

"That's where I got the idea." I informed him. "Willa Elizabeth Weasley." I said the name out loud. At that moment Willa stirred in my arms and opened her gorgeous blue eyes.

"It's her name." Ron said smiling. "She's Willa Elizabeth."

The door to the room opened again. The nurse was back in the room.

"I'm sorry but only two at a time and the grandparents are asking to come in." She said.

"Bye Willa." Trey said, waving at the pink bundle in my arms. Ginny gave me a quick hug and planted a kiss on Willa's forehead.

"Bye Wil." She said, giving my daughter her first nickname.

"See you soon." Harry called to Willa Elizabeth. They left and the door closed again.

"You named her." I said, smiling at Ron. "You came up with a brilliant name for Willa."

"I did, didn't I?" Ron asked, lifting his daughter from my arms. "Hi, Willa." Ron said to her. "I'm your daddy."

The door opened and Molly and Arthur entered with giant smiles on their faces.

"Where is she?" Molly asked. "Where's my granddaughter?"

"Mum, dad, this is Willa Elizabeth Weasley." Ron said, passing along our daughter to his mother.

"Elizabeth?" Molly asked, smiling, happily.

"Yes, the same middle name as her Grammy." I said. Molly looked near tears.

"Hello Willa Elizabeth." Arthur said, looking at his granddaughter. "She's beautiful." He said. "And you were brilliant Hermione, twenty seven hours of labor."

"I'm glad it's over." I said. "Because I have this beautiful, wonderful little girl now…and I'm a mum." Ron sat next to me on the bed and grabbed my hand. He waited until Arthur had the baby before he started speaking.

"Mum, dad. Hermione and I have something to tell you." Ron started. I gave his hand a squeeze for confidence. "We've talked about this and together we've decided that we don't want to raise our daughter in the city."

"Are you moving back to England?" Molly asked. I think she tried but she couldn't keep the excitement from her voice.

"Not exactly." I answered. "The Gazette is going to New York and California. Ron and I have decided that this will be the final move for us. We're moving to San Clemente, California after the New Year. But before you get upset, you have to know that we've already signed up to take classes to get an International Apparation Licenses so we'll be able to come back to England in the drop of a hat. And every Sunday we'll come to spend the entire day with the family."

"It really would be the same as if we were living in Paris but better because we'll see you more often than we do now." Ron said.

"Will you have a place for us to stay when we come visit this adorable little baby?" Arthur asked, staring down at his brand new granddaughter.

"Of course, dad." Ron said. "We're getting an actual house this time." Molly was looking at Willa with sad eyes.

"We'll probably come visit often." She said. I perked up when I heard that she wasn't upset. "I think she'll like the beach. When Ronald was little he was like a fish. He never wanted to leave the water." Ron smiled and went over to hug his mother.

"Thank you mum." Ron said. "This means a lot that you're supporting us in our decision."

After several minutes Arthur handed Willa back to Ron and they left so that my parents could come and meet their granddaughter. I wasn't sure what to expect when I saw my mother. I had not seen her once when I was in labor. The door opened once more and dad hurried in.

"Where is she?" He asked, excitedly. "Where's my beautiful grandbaby?"

"Richard, I'd like you to meet your granddaughter, Willa Elizabeth Weasley." Ron said, handing Willa to my father. Mum walked in at that moment. She didn't say anything, just stood by dad's side and looked at her granddaughter.

"Willa?" She finally asked in a shaky voice.

"Yes." I answered. Mum looked up at me.

"Twenty-seven hours?" She asked. "You're a brave woman." I smiled.

"It was worth it." I assured her.

"Can I hold her?" Mum asked, shakily.

"Of course." I said. Dad kissed Willa's forehead and passed her to mum. Mum began tearing up.

"Hi Willa." She said. "I'm your Nana and this is your Granddad." She sniffled. "We're going to love you and spoil you like crazy."

"I'm going to teach you how to play football." Dad said. "Your daddy tells me that you've got quite the kick." I smiled as I watched them. Unfortunately I knew it was time to break the news to them.

"Mum, dad Ron and I have some news." I said. "We've discussed this and have decided that we'd like to raise our daughter in California. We'll be back every week and you're welcome to come visit. I know it sucks that we're moving after we just had Willa but the Gazette is going there in January and we both think it's best that Willa doesn't grow up in the city." I laid it all out and didn't pause for response. The expression on dad's face fell while mum's stayed expressionless.

"California?" Dad asked. "But Paris was only a Chunnel ride away."

"Think of it this way," I started, "you can make a big trip out of it whenever you come. You can spend the week and we'll have a place where you can stay." I assured them.

"Hermione, I'd like to have Boxing Day, and one week over summers in England with my granddaughter." Mum said. "I know I'll see her more often than that but I'd like it if those two specific times that I know we'll spend with her every year." I looked over at Ron.

"That sounds reasonable." Ron agreed. "I think it will be good for her to have set time with her Nana and Granddad." Mum smiled.

"Thank you." She said. Dad took out a camera and began snapping pictures of Willa.

"I can't wait to show everyone in the office." Dad said. I smiled and settled back against the pillows on my bed. My daughter was a part of the world, she had a name, she had grandparents, she was about to have a best friend/ cousin, and she had a home in California to look forward to. My eyes slowly shut as I thought of my amazingly perfect daughter, Willa Elizabeth.

Willa was a popular baby. After the two of us rested and I fed her for the first time (a weird but amazing experience), the rest of the family came in to see her. Fred and George had managed to be the first ones after the nap to come visit. They came with an adorable stuffed bear for her that had a pink t-shirt with Willa's full name on it.

"You know what, it isn't Frieda or Georgina but I think Willa suits her." George said, holding his niece.

"Yeah." Fred agreed, smiling down at my daughter. "She looks just like you, you know Hermione?" He looked over his brother's shoulder. "But she's got Ron's eyes."

"Mum calls them the Weasley Blues." George said, smiling. I smiled at them and turned to look over at Ron who was sound asleep on the bed next to me. The poor guy had dealt with my nightmares for the past few weeks, and now he had been up for over thirty hours. I was lucky to have him. "I think Alicia and Angelina want to come in." George said.

"We'll be back later." Fred assured me. George handed Willa back to me and then left the room. I looked down at the little girl who I helped create. I just couldn't get over how beautiful she was and how this amazingly perfect tiny baby was my daughter. I had only known her for a few hours but I loved her so unbelievably much.

Sometime later, after all of the Weasleys had come and gone, I had fallen asleep again and a while after that I woke up. I had no sense of what time it was after I opened my eyes. I looked over to see Ron, holding Willa and walking around the room.

"You are never leaving the house, Wil." Ron said. "You're too beautiful. I know you're a little young but there's only one rule you have to follow. You aren't allowed to date until your thirty." Ron leaned down and kissed Willa's forehead. "Alright, let's be reasonable. You can never date." I laughed and Ron turned around with a smile on his face. "You're up." He said.

"Yeah." I said, smiling. "How's Willa."

"Perfect." Ron said. At that moment the door opened once again and Harry and Ginny came back into the room. Ginny had her camera in her hand.

"I'm making a scrapbook." Ginny announced. "It's for Willa to look at when she's older but for you two as well." I was too happy to remember why the camera annoyed me in the first place. Actually, it sounded like a brilliant idea.

"Gin, I'm going to do the same thing for you when you have your daughter." I said, smiling. Harry shot me an angry look from behind Ginny and then he began furiously shaking his head.

"Or son." Ginny said, patting her stomach.

"Yes, that's what I meant." I said. Ginny turned around to look at Harry who was still sending me signals of what I should say. Harry brought his arms down to his side when she saw him and tried to look innocent.

"What was that?" Ginny asked.

"Nothing." Harry insisted.

"He was making a funny face for Willa." Ron covered.

"Willa is on the other side of the room." Ginny said, sternly. "Harry was looking at Hermione." She turned to look at me and then turned to look at Ron before finally glaring at Harry. "Do you three know something I don't know?" Ginny asked. "Harry, did you go back to the Healer and find out the sex?" She stuck a finger at Harry's chest. He backed up but she followed, pointing a finger at his chest with every step they took. He was finally backed against a wall so that he couldn't move anymore.

"N-no." Harry stuttered.

"You mean to tell me that you went behind my back and went to the Healer to find out the sex of the baby because you just couldn't wait?" Ginny asked.

"I only did it because I needed to know what color to paint her room." Harry said.

"Her?" Ginny asked, the anger gone from her tone. "We're having a girl?" She questioned, excitedly. She turned back to Ron and I. "I'm having a little girl!" She announced to us. "Willa is going to have a girl cousin!" She started happily going on about her daughter. "Oh and we can do so many things with her name." Ginny said.

"I thought her name was going to be Lily?" Ron asked as he settled into a chair with Willa.

"It is." Ginny assured him. "But it could be Tiger Lily or Lily-Rose or…I don't know but it's going to be so much fun picking out her name!" Ginny said. Then it hit her, she spun around to face Harry who was smiling. "Paint her room?" She asked. "But we're moving to Paris. We aren't staying in London…and when did you paint a room? We still have all four rooms the same way we left them."

"I bought us a place in Paris." Harry said. "I wanted it to be all decorated before we moved in. Sasha's been helping me out." Ginny threw her arms around Harry's neck.

"When can we see it?" Ginny asked.

"Sasha said she's almost done with the decorating." Harry informed her. "How about we go to Paris when Ron, Hermione, and Willa go back?"

"Yes!" Ginny exclaimed.

"Shhh." Ron said as Willa began to stir and cry. "It's all right, baby." He said but Willa kept crying. He held her close to him and began rocking slowly back and forth. Eventually he got her to quiet down. He looked over at me with an amazed look on his face. I smiled back at him and settled back in my bed.

Life was just amazing at the moment. I had a perfect little girl and a wonderful husband who loved the little girl just as much as I did. My best friends were expecting their own daughter and the day after tomorrow I was going home with my brand new baby.

a/n: So Willa... Trust me I tried so hard to figure out a name. I was so stressed because I wasn't sure if people would like it or not. It originally was going to be Kaia Addison Weasley but I felt that that name didn't suit her after I did the birth chapter. I came up with three more and then asked my best friend which one I should choose and she chose Willa Elizabeth Weasley. If it isn't working now...just try and get used to it please. I'm so sorry if I didn't pick the name you wanted!!

Please review!!!
