Chapter 28
Ginny woke up to an alarm going off in her room. When the nurse came in she said that it was alright, Ginny just needed to eat something. While the nurse went to get Ginny her breakfast Ginny looked over at Draco, his face was so pale.
She reached her hand out to him and when she touched him he flinched. She drew her hand back and frowned at him. "Draco, what is the matter?"
Draco seemed to snap out of what ever was playing in his head and stared at her. "Is it always going to be like this? Jumping around the whole 8 remaining months? Gin, that scared the magic right out of me."
Ginny knew that he was just worried about her and the baby, she thought it was sweet to an extent. "Draco, I am a strong witch, I can do this you know."
Draco looked at Ginny and could tell that she was worried he wouldn't believe her. He almost laughed at her thoughts because he knew what they were. 'She thinks she is letting me down.' He walked over to her and kissed her softly and then smiled. "I know you are, it is just going to take some getting use to. No more rough housing with Bryson, and you must eat more. No more of that loud alarm."
Ginny smiled, and then frowned. Draco noticed this. "What is it Love?"
"What do you think Bryson will have to say about this? When should we tell him?"
Draco looked down at his hands for a moment and then back to Ginny. "To tell you the truth, I am not sure how he will take it. I am going to bring him here today to visit you, that is if you have to stay another day. I really think we should wait tell we get you home to tell him." He looked at her and smiled, "He will probably not let you do anything, or let anyone touch you."
Ginny smirked, "He is already like that," she said then the door opened, and it was time for her to eat. Draco walked down to get him a bit at the café and then went back to Ginny waiting for the doctor to show up.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
After Ginny finished eating the doctor showed up. He looked at her chart from the night before and her vitals now, then looked at her and smiled. "How would you like to go home Mrs. Malfoy?"
Ginny's face lit up. "Can I go now?"
Draco laughed out loud at her statement. The doctor smiled at her. "Yes, but you will have to come in every 2 weeks for a check up instead of monthly. I also want you to take it really easy, do not wear yourself out. You are to be sitting and resting for the remainder of this week. Then you can do small things. Floo only, and NO FLYING OR RIDING HORSES."
Ginny eyed the doctor and then finally nodded her head. "I can manage that."
"If you have any questions, or feel like the littlest thing is wrong please come here or contact me."
Ginny looked at him and nodded her head. "Can I go now?"
The doctor chuckled. "Why don't you get ready and your husband can come and sign you out."
Ginny smiled and shooed Draco out, she couldn't wait to see Bryson.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
While Draco was signing the papers and paying the bill, he decided to send a message to Harry and Pansy telling them that they would be home in about an hour. That would give Ginny enough time to get settled in. When he arrived back at Ginny's room she was waiting outside of the room.
He smiled at her and then wrapped his arms around her. "Are you ready to go my love?"
"Yes, take me home I am ready to see my son."
Draco walked her down to the floo and they were on their way home. When they arrived
Draco grabbed Ginny and hugged her to him. He pulled away from her a little and just stared at her.
Ginny didn't like the way Draco was looking at her, it was like he was trying to read her soul. "Draco what is it with you today. I am not the first woman to be pregnant, and this isn't even your first child."
"I know this, but this is going to be a hard 8 months to come. You are going to be banned from a lot of things." He looked at her with a stern look and then continued. "I am lucky to have such a woman. The only thing that you have thought about really besides yourself is Bryson. He is lucky to have you as a mother."
Ginny smiled with tears in her eyes and reached up to kiss his lips. "Where is my son at?"
Draco laughed "Patients witch, he should be here within the hour. I wanted to make sure that you had enough time to get settled in before he came busting in."
"Alright, I am going to go and take a shower. Will you go and floo my parents and yours and invite them to have dinner with us?"
Draco looked at her with that stern look once again today. "You are not to be on your feet cooking."
Ginny shook her head as she headed up the stairs. "That is what you have Kelsey for." And she was gone.
Draco shook his head 'She is going to drive me crazy, this I am sure of.' XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Pansy walked into the playroom where Harry was playing with Bryson. She watched them play for a while and smiled, she couldn't wait till Jesse was old enough for Harry to play with like this. He played with him now, but this was a whole different level. She finally cleared her throat and the boys turned to her.
"I have just received a note stating that you can go home now Bryson. Your mom will be there within the hour."
Bryson jumped to his feet and ran to get his things.
"Bryson," called Harry.
"Sir?" asked Bryson coming back into the room.
"What has your mother told you about running?"
"No running in the house," he said with his head bent.
"Then go and get your things, without the running," said Harry.
"Yes sir." And he was off.
Pansy looked at Harry and smiled. "He is really excited about seeing her."
"Yes. I will be glad, he has been asking all day when he could see her and what is wrong with her. I just hope that he will be excited about the baby."
Pansy walked over to Harry. "I am sure that he will be happy as soon as he sees how happy she is."
"I hope so love, I hope so." XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Draco had flooed his mother and Severus, and Ginny's parents and they would be arriving no sooner then 6:00 to give them plenty of time to talk to Bryson about the baby. Once he was done he stood over his desk looking at some mail when the fire place came to life. He turned to see Harry and his son step out. Bryson ran to his father and Draco picked him up.
"Hey mate, were you good for Aunt Pansy and Uncle Harry?" Draco asked.
"Yes, where is mom?"
Draco looked at his son. "She is in her room getting dressed, why don't you take your things to your room. Maybe you will find her while you are up there." Draco sat Bryson down.
"Alright daddy." He went to run off and Harry cleared his throat. Bryson turned to Harry and Harry just raised a brow at him. Bryson turned and walked out of the room. Both men chuckled softly when they heard him run up the stairs.
All of the sudden you could hear Ginny. "Bryson I told you no running in the house."
They lost it and laughed harder.
"Sorry I am here so soon, once Pansy told him that he could come home there was no slowing the boy down," explained Harry.
"That is fine, Ginny is ready to see him anyway. Thanks for keeping him, we really appreciate it."
"Not a problem, I am going to go before Pansy thinks that I have taken up homestead." And with that he was gone.
Soon after Draco left his study in search of his son and wife.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Ginny was sitting on her bed with Bryson when Draco walked into his room. He smiled at them and joined them on the bed.
"Now can you tell me momma?" asked Bryson.
Draco gave Ginny a knowing look and then nodded. Ginny cleared her throat. "Bryson, the reason that I was at the hospital is because I was weak. I was exhausted and over worked. What would you say to a brother or a sister?"
Bryson looked at Ginny and then at Draco. His face lit up and he nodded. "I would love to have a sister or brother."
Draco looked at Bryson and then clapped him on the back lightly and said. "That is good to hear mate, cause mommy is having a baby."
Bryson looked at Ginny with round eyes and then frowned. "What is wrong Bryson?" asked Ginny.
"You are going to have to be careful, so nothing happens to you or the baby," he said looking at her with meaningful eyes.
Ginny smiled and nodded her head. She was so amazed how smart he was sometimes.
Draco looked at his son. "There are something's that mommy isn't going to be able to do for a while. But just till the baby gets here, she is going to need your help, ok?"
Bryson nodded and then got on Ginny's lap and hugged her. Ginny ran her hand through his hair. "How about you go get cleaned up, your grandparents are coming to dinner tonight."
Bryson nodded and got up and headed to his room. Draco looked at Ginny and laid her down on the bed. He looked into her eyes and then leaned down to kiss her passionately.
"Thank you Ginny."
Ginny looked at him. "What ever for?"
Draco smiled at her "For everything, loving me, loving Bryson, and for this." He went to her stomach and pulled up her shirt a little to kiss her abdomen where his new child was laying.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Ginny was making sure that everything was done when Narcissa and Severus showed up. She smiled as she walked out of the kitchen. "Dinner will be ready in a little while."
Severus looked at her knowing how stubborn she is. "The elf is cooking correct."
Ginny rolled her eyes. "Yes, the elf is cooking, I was just making sure everything was alright. I am pregnant, not stupid."
Severus chuckled at her and Narcissa hit his arm. "Be nice Severus."
"Narcissa, I know Ginevra very well, she is stubborn. It will not take her long before she will start breaking the rules that are laid down."
Draco had heard what was said and chuckled. "He is right mother, we are going to have to keep a close eye on this witch." He received a glare from his wife.
"I am going to go sit down and wait for my parents, maybe they will help me gang up on you two."
Severus snorted at that and watched the red head leave the room. He looked at Draco and said. "You will have Molly over a lot making sure that she doesn't do too much."
Draco nodded and then spoke up. "How about we join her."
When they walked into the room Molly was already telling Ginny that she had to relax and not be up moving around so much.
"I know mom. Draco, Severus, and even Bryson have told me that."
Draco walked over and put his hand on her shoulder. "And here you thought that they would be on your side." He smiled at her. "I am going to go get Bryson."
They had a wonderful dinner where they talked about the coming baby and Molly and Narcissa coming over every once in a while to sit with Ginny. Draco told them that they would be putting a announcement in the paper when she was 4 months along, no sooner.
Soon everyone was heading home and the Malfoys headed to bed.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Ginny was sitting on the patio watching Bryson play when Kelsey came into the room.
"Mistress, you have a visitor here to see you, a Mrs. Rita."
"Send her in Kelsey, and bring us some fresh tea please."
Rita walked in and set up the playpen and put Joshua in it. She walked over to Ginny and bent to give her a friendly hug. "How are you?"
Ginny smiled at her. "I am fine, have you heard the news?"
Rita smiled. "No, what news?"
"I am pregnant," said Ginny smiling at her.
Rita looked at her and smiled and then asked, "Are you sure that you are ok?"
"Yes, I am on a strict REST schedule. Other then that everything will be fine."
"Bryan is going to be so happy for you. I can't wait to tell him," said Rita.
"We are going to put an announcement in the paper in a few months. We don't want to put it in and then have something happen," said Ginny.
Rita nodded in understanding. "I will make sure to tell him not to say anything to anyone other then your family."
"Thanks Rita, I would appreciate it," said Ginny.
Rita nodded and the two women spent the rest of the afternoon catching up. Bryson came in to talk to the baby. Ginny knew that he would be a great older brother.
