Harry Potter walked into the house. He had just returned from a mission, as two Death Eaters had been spotted in Diagon Alley, trying to reinstate Voldemort's rule. Luckily, they had been quickly captured by the group of Aurors sent to catch them.
"Ginny!" he called into Potter Manor. His wife appeared on the stairs about a minute later. When Harry saw Ginny, he smiled.
"I missed you," Ginny said. She looked at him, and instantly a longing gnawed inside of her.
"Shall we…" she asked. The rest of the question was drowned out by Harry nodding, then picking her up and rushing into their bedroom.
The next morning, Ginny woke up. She saw her husband lying in bed and grinned. The recollection of last night was amazing.
At that moment, Harry stirred. He opened his eyes, and Ginny's thoughts shifted to the get-well card she had made him in her first year…
His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad,
She smiled and got out of bed to prepare the breakfast.
Two months later…
Ginny ran towards what had become her favourite room of Potter Manor: the bathroom. Barely making it on time, she puked into the toilet bowl.
"Could it be a stomach flu?" Ginny thought.
At that moment, Harry poked his head into the bathroom. "Love, I think you should go to St Mungo's," he said. "This stomach flu or whatever it is has been here for a month or so, and it's not relenting."
"Alright, Harry," Ginny said, giving Harry a smile. "I won't kiss you, my breath is VERY stinky at the moment."
Harry laughed at that. "I've got to go to the Ministry, ask Fleur to accompany you, or Hermione, or somebody."
Ginny decided to ask Fleur to accompany her, because Hermione was busy at the Ministry trying to get a new law for house-elves rights passed.
"I would ze 'ery pleased to come with you," Fleur said when Ginny flooed to Shell Cottage. "Just let me put Dominique in ze stroller and bring Victoire too." She vanished and did not return until three minutes later. Dominique was in the pram with a few toys, happily babbling to herself, while .
"So, what are ze symptoms?" Fleur asked.
"Well, I have vomited countless times, and also, some days, I have the weirdest cravings for things like seaweed with maple syrup. Also, my mood changes all the time." Ginny replied.
"I don't zink I know what zat is, unless…" Fleur trailed off, her eyes wide.
"Ginny, when 'as your last period?" Fleur asked.
"Two and a half months ago, wh-" Ginny stopped suddenly. It had hit her like a brick. "Am I pregnant?" she whispered.
"Zis was the potion I used with Victoire." Fleur said to a trembling Ginny. "It should ze black if you are not pregnant, and white if you are. Ze colour should change within two minutes."
Ginny hurriedly thanked Fleur, then walked towards the nearest bathroom. She peed into the container and watched the potion, which was black (and had been when Fleur gave it to her), anxiously.
After one and a half minutes, the potion was still black. Ginny heaved a sigh of relief. At last, she could go back to the Holyhead Harpies as a Chaser. She had had to pause for a while, due to the vomiting. Just fifteen seconds later, the potion started to bubble, froth and hiss. Ginny closed her eyes, steadying herself. Mentally bracing for anything, she took a deep breath and opened her eyes.
The potion was white.
"How was the St. Mungo's visit?" asked Harry when he got home. Ginny had been preparing for this moment, and Potter Manor had been polished, scrubbed, washed… and basically cleaned with every cleaning spell in existence. She had also prepared a candlelit dinner to surprise Harry.
Walking into the kitchen, Harry was shocked at the effort his wife had put into the dinner. "Wow, thus dinner is amazing!" said Harry through a mouthful of roasted chicken. "What's the occasion?"
"Harry?"
"Hm?"
"I'm having a baby."
Harry choked on his mouthful of baked potato. "WHAT?!"
"Fleur asked me the symptoms, then she gave me a potion to pee in, and it turned white, which means I'm pregnant!" Ginny explained to Harry.
Harry stretched his arms out to hug his wife. "I'm so happy I can't express it," he said.
