Chapter 25

I own nothing

This is for Fred……

Arthur came running from the yard and into the kitchen looking rather flushed,

"Molly dear, take the children upstairs to the master bed room, Gideon, Fabian, and the rest of the order are under attack. Fabian said for us to hide the death eaters are planning to come to every village and burn everything to the ground. He panted, bent down and grabbed Percy and took Charlie's hand. I on the other hand was about ready to give birth to twins running up the stairs wasn't really plausible.

"Arthur you're going to help me I just can't jog up the stairs anymore!" He looked helpless as he took the boys upstairs and came back for me.

"Molly the boys are alright to an extent, however Percy and Charlie don't really understand. I don't think we should tell them until they get older. Bill knows I think he understands that he might not have twin uncles tomorrow. That was it Arthur hit it right on the head; what I have feared for most of my life, my brothers dying…

I looked at Arthur with tears in my eyes and a pain crawling up my back. The tears fall and Arthur hauls me up the stairs to the bed room where the first real contraction hits my body.

"Arthur! Oh, Merlin I think it is time!

Arthur looks at me then to the boys,

"Molly, are you sure? I mean it could be false labor."

"Arthur Weasley how many children have I brought into this world? The twins are coming if we are ready or not!"

Arthur looked flustered he turned to our eldest and said,

"Bill, I need you to get into the closet and grab two blankets and several towels." Arthur then turned to Charlie,

"Charlie I need you to be a big boy and take your brother and sit on the bed and talk to your mother alright?"

The boys obey what their father says. All three of them look scared and I feel like it is my fault. I look at Arthur he stopped what he was doing and knelt beside the bed.

"Molly everything is going to be alright the boys will be fine they are going to be right here the whole time."

"That's what I am worried about Arthur. They are too young to be in here for this its going to scare the lot of them."

"We can't do anything about that right now, Molly this is the safest place for all of us to be. The boys are going to stay in here we will talk them through it."

"Arthur what about you? You have never delivered a baby let alone two! What if something happens?"

"Molly" he said as he pushed my hair out of my eyes, "Everything is going to be fine. I am going to be right here with you and the boys, don't worry it'll put strain on the babies." He kissed my forehead and turned to the boys. "Ok boys, now I know that this is going to be a little scary and somewhat disgusting, but you have to stay calm for your mother and the twins ok?"

The boys looked terrified as they stood together holding hands. Arthur walked toward them and gathered Percy and Charlie into his arms and told Bill to follow him. They walked toward the far end of the room and conjured three sleeping bags.

"Daddy can we see the twins yet?" asked Percy

"No son they aren't ready yet."

"Dad I want to help you and mum." Bill told Arthur

Arthur glanced from Bill to me. I was in so much pain right now but I was trying to hide it. It was almost time for me to push and the pain was getting unbearable. I felt the smallest pinprick of fear start to rise in my soul. I felt like something was going to happen to our family the problems were starting now I could feel it as I looked at Arthur. He knew what I was feeling I could see it in his eyes. He told Bill to grab the towels without taking his eyes off of me. We are going to be parents of twins but I could feel a swift breeze of loss swooping through the air.
