The Next Generation- Chapter 10
Author's Note: Ron and Harry never thought that they'd end up with family lives until now, but now life is really about change. Especially since now they had kids on their way to Hogwarts and the Death Eaters were becoming more and more.

When Dean entered the living room, Jessica was standing on a chair going through all the books on the bookshelf and mumbling to herself in the process. He made a face as he watched her and didn't say a word. "Ugh! Maybe Chris'll have the book." She muttered and jumping off the chair. When she turned a round, she noticed her dad smiling at her. "Hi daddy." She said cheerfully, picking up the book she already had and walking off.
"Hello pumpkin." He answered and watched her walk up the stairs to her room. Parvati came walking by and Dean to her hand. "What is Jessica researching?" he asked.
"I dunno. What ever it is it must be pretty serious. She asked me to take her to work with me tomorrow though." She answered and went on her way. "Maybe you can ask her though. She'll tell her daddy just about anything." She added with a small smile. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Hey dad, can I go to work with you tomorrow?" asked Chris, looking over at his dad, who was working at his desk. Seamus looked up at his son in confusion. Chris was the type of kid who would usually find himself in trouble, and Seamus didn't need Fudge breathing down his neck about the troublemaking little boy.
"Why? It's your vacation." He said.
"I know. but I'm doing some research and I need to go to work with you to complete it. It's for Defense Against the Dark Arts." He added quickly. Seamus looked at his son disapprovingly.
"If your mum says yes, I'll take you." He said simply.
"YES!" *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Are you sure they won't be in the way?" Hermione asked the twins as Alex and John prepared to spend a day with their uncles. "I don't want them to be any trouble."
"Hermione, we're uncles and we own a joke shop." Said George.
"How much trouble can these two be?" added Fred.
"You'd be surprised." She muttered and George grinned, patting her on the shoulder.
"C'mon, take advantage of the time. Spend some 'time' with Ron." He suggested. Hermione pursed her lips and frowned.
"That would be nice if the prat was home." She grumbled and the twins cringed.
"Sorry. We'll bring you something back, ok?" he siad and she nodded, watching them go into the fireplace.
"Guys, don't let Alex go alone!" she said quickly as Alex hopped in.
"Relax 'Mione!" said Fred, picking up Alex into his arms as he entered the fireplace. "Weasley Wizard Wheezys!" Hermione sighed and dropped on the couch, glaring at the fireplace. Ron and Harry continued to go to Bulgaria looking for a death eater that wasn't even there any more if he was smart. Even Dean and Seamus had taken time off to be with family. She sighed and picked up her book. She was really going to make him suffer now. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"We should get home now. Hermione and Ginny are probably wonder when we're gonna get back." Said Harry as they left Krum's house for the fifth time. His mother would continue to call them to check if the Death Eater would come, and Krum was back on the road again so she was very nervous. Ron had finally convinced her that he was dead or caught, so they were now on their way home.
"Wait!" called Krum, who had suddenly arrived, obviously from practice since he had on his Quidditch robes. "ze Quidditch World Cup is coming up again in two years and I vould like to invite you all zhere. as a thank you for my mother." He said.
"What about our family?" asked Harry, looking at Ron for some help.
"We both have two kids and our wives'll want to come." Said Ron.
"I vill send you your tickets." Said Krum and they thanked him, Ron being more reluctant. "Tell Hermoninny I said hi."
"Sure." Answered Ron stepping into the fireplace after Harry disappeared. When Ron arrived in his fireplace, he expected to hear his kids running through the house and Hermione yelling, but he didn't. She was siting on the couch, reading a book and not even paying much attention to his arrival.
"Wow, you finally decided to come home before lunch. What a surprise." She muttered and went back to her book. Ron stared at her in confusion.
"Did I do something?" he asked and she glared up at him. Finally, she sat up and placed the book on the coffee table.
"No Ron, you can do no wrong. After all, you do make sure the kids eat and they get their check ups regulatly." He stared at her with a blank expression and then, she shot off. "How do you come off leaving every day and leaving me to watch the kids! Couldn't you take off some days to spend time with your kids!"
"But Hermione.;.."
"I suppose not. After all, taking care of the kids is the woman's job! I bet you don't even remember when their birthdays are do you?" she asked and Ron glared at her. She was yelling at him and he didn't know why. so he did what he use to do when she yelled at him- yelled back. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Alex and John were looking at the things Fred and George had around their shops as people came in and kids admired things they knew their parents wouldn't let them buys. George noticed this and whispered something to Alex.
"Yes Uncle George." She said and got up, approaching them. Fred looked over at him in confusion. The little girl stood and talked sweetly to the lady who was arguing with her son on buying exploding candy, when she finally caved in and bought the item.
"No way." Said John in shock and George grinned.
"We may have to bring you around more often." Said Fred. Alex grinned happily and sat back down next to her older brother. The twins both exchanged looks.
"I've got a wicked idea." *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Harry was lying tiredly on the couch, half asleep and waiting for Ginny and the kids to return from their Christmas shopping. He was really suppose to be cleaning up for her, but after a long day at work, he had sleep to catch up on. He was just about asleep when he felt some one staring down at him. When he opened his eyes he saw Sirius, Josh, and Sara staring down at him. "what do you want?" he grumbled.
"I could have sworn I told you to clean up for me." Came Ginny's voice and Harry quickly sat up. She had her hands on her hips and Sirius was smiling happily.
"Yeah, she told you to clean up so we could go by her parents later. Unless they were coming over." Said Sirius, looking over at Ginny for an answer. She sighed and walked into the kitchen, muttering angrily under her breath and not looking back as Sara followed her.
"So, does that mean when mum tells me to do something I don't have to do it either?" asked Josh and Harry glared at his son.
"Got clean your room." He muttered.
"No fair." *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Hermione, open the damn door!" yelled Ron, kicking and pounding on the door. He had been doing it for the past ten minutes and she continued to ignore him. Finally, he pulled out his wand and pointed it at the door. "I swear Hermione, if you don't open it now, I'll blast the door down!" he yelled.
"You try to blast it down and I'll blast you away!" Hermione screamed. Ron frowned and put his wand back into his pocket, going down stairs and dropping on the couch. He was in big trouble now, and tonight was going to be a couch night.
