Happy Anniversary

"Rosie, you be good for Uncle Harry and Aunt Ginny!" Hermione said as she kissed her daughter. "Daddy and I will come get you tomorrow ok?"

"Bye Mummy." Rose said. She did have a definite frown on her face though because of her mum leaving her. She was a little over two years old and had a mess of red curls on her head.

"Have fun tonight." Ginny smirked as she took Rose from Hermione's arms.

"We will!" Hermione smiled. It was she and Ron's seventh anniversary. Hermione gave Rose one last kiss on the cheek then walked out the front door.

Hermione then apparated home and started to work on dinner. With all of the cooking lessons Molly had given her she was actually becoming quite the cook. As Hermione cooked she couldn't help but hum to herself. she and Ron had not had a night without Rose in a long time. She was quite looking forward to tonight. Once she had the food going the went to get dressed. She decided on a sleeveless, v-neck, black dress and her black heels. After she had applied her make-up and pinned up her hair she returned to the kitchen to finish dinner. Ron was due home any minute and she wanted everything ready when he got home. She levitated their plates piled with steak and vegetables into the dining room and carried in the bowl of salad. With a flick of her wand the candles were lit and the setting looked very romantic. A few seconds later she heard the front door open and she went to meet Ron in the hall.

Ron, she knew, had been in a very important meeting that day with the Muggle Prime Minister regarding some escaped prisoners from Azkaban, so he was dressed very nicely in a muggle suit. He looked up when he heard Hermione's heels on the wood floor. If he thought she was beautiful at the Yule Ball in fourht year it was nothing compared to the way she looked tonight. Ron felt as if his breath had been taken away.

"Hey, how was your meeting?" Hermione asked as she strode down the hallway.

"Fine," Ron heard his voice crack. "Hermione, you look amazing!"

"Thank you." She said, taking his coat. When she turned back around she smiled and said, "Happy Anniversary."

"Happy Anniversary." Ron replied. Then Hermione leaned up and gave him a very deep kiss. After all these years they still couldn't get enough of eachother. "Where's Rose?" Ron asked as he finally broke away.

"At Harry and Ginny's until tomorrow." Hermione replied with a twinkle in her eye.

"Oh really?" Ron asked as he smiled and raised his eyebrows.

"Down boy." Hermione giggled, "Let's eat dinner first."

She led Ron down the hall and into the dining room. When Ron saw the delicious looking dinner spread out before him his mouth dropped. "Wow, this looks incredible! Did you make it?"

"Yes, thanks to your Mum's lessons."

"Thank you Mum." Ron whispered and Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Come on let's eat I'm starving!" she said.

After some quick small talk Hermione asked Ron again about his meeting. "It was alright," he said. "He doesn't seem very concerned. Still treats us like a disease. It's like he thinks if he comes too close he'll catch it and die...Stupid muggles."

"Ron," Hermione chuckled, "My parents are muggles too."

"Yeah, but they aren't afraid of us."

After they finished eating they continued to sit at the table and talk. When it got quiet for a moment Hermione looked up at Ron. "Ron," she said. "Have you given much thought to having more children?"

Ron leaned back in his chair, "Well, a little. Why?"

"Well, you know, Rose is two now. I was just thinking it might be nice to have another one."

"Well yeah," Ron said. "I want more kids. It's just, you know, Ros is only two. I thought we could, you know, space them out a little more. Like wait another couple of years until rose is older, that's all."

"You don't want another one right now?" Hermione asked.

"Well, not right now no. Let's just take it slow."

Hermione didn't say anything. She just flicked her wand and gathered the dishes and took them to the kitchen, stomping her feet the whole way. "Merlin, what'd I do now?" Ron asked himself as he stood to follow her.

When he walked into the kitchen Hermione was furiously scrubbing at a plate. Ron sighed, "Hermione, what's wrong?"

Hermione put the plate and sponge down and wheeled around to look at Ron. She was shooting daggers at him with her eyes. "You don't want any more children!"

Ron was flabbergasted, "I never said that!"

"You implied it! 'Let's wait until Rose is older' I guarentee when Rose is 'older' you'll say the same thing and will keep doing that over and over again and we won't have anymore!"

Ron took a step forward, "Hermione, I do want more kids. I never said I didn't."

"Just stop talking to me." She said as she turned back to the sink.

"Hermione, don't do this!" Ron groaned. "Come on, it's our anniversary. Rose isn't here. Let's celebrate it." He pleaded.

Hermione turned and threw the sponge at him narrowly missing his head, "No!" and she stomped off to the bedroom.

Ron turned off the sink and followed her. She was standing at her dresser taking off her jewelry. "Hermione, I..."

"I don't want to hear it Ronald!"

Ron winced, it was never good when she called him that. "You asked me what I thought Hermione!" He was beginning to get angry now too, "Why did you ask me if you didn't want to hear my response?"

Hermione didn't answer and went and sat on the bed to take her shoes off.

"Hermione," Ron groaned. "Talk to me." All he received was another death glare. He knew he would have to make her talk so he walked over to her and pushed her shoulders so she was lying on her back on the bed. Then he climbed on top of her pinning her down.

"Ron! Get off me!" She screamed, pounding him with her fists.

Ron grabbed her hands and pinned them over her head. "No, you are going to talk to me. Why did you get so angry?"

Hermione struggled for a moment, but when she was unsuccessful she sighed and gave in, "Ron, do you want more children?"

"Yes Hermione. I want more children, I've already said this."

"But, you don't want another one now?"

"Hermione, if you want to have another baby now," he sighed, "then that's fine with me too. Is that honestly what all of this was about?"

Hermione closed her eyes and let out a deep breath, "Yes because Ron...I'm...I'm pregnant."

Ron's mouth dropped, "You're pregnant?"

Hermione opened her eyes and nodded, blinking back tears. "I found out yesterday and wanted to surprise you for our anniversary."

"But, what about my...you know...my problem?"

"Well Ron, we've already had on baby despite that so it is possible to have another one."

Ron smiled and leaned down and kissed his wife, "A baby? Really?"

Hermione nodded, "I'm about six weeks along. Are you ok with this, not that it really matters because I'm still pregnant."

"Oh Hermione," Ron chuckled. "I'm more than ok. I'm so happy!" He kissed her again. "So six weeks huh? Then the little guy should be here sometime in October?"

"Yes, and Ron, we don't know it's a 'little guy' it could be another girl."

Ron shook his head and stuck his nose in the air, "Nope, this one's a boy, I just know it!"
