CHAPTER 7: GINNY

Harry peeked around the door to see if Ginny was awake, "Ginny?"

"I'm awake Harry. Come on in." She was laying on her bed reading a muggle book. Her tears had dried and she had a slight smile on her face, "What's up?"

"Nothing much. I just had something I wanted to ask you." Harry asked sitting down in the desk chair facing her.

"Ask away," and she laid her book aside looking intently at him.

"Do you want to have this baby?" Harry asked straight forward. He didn't know any other way to bring the subject up. He had thought for about an hour after talking to Mr. Weasley about it. He didn't want to be blunt, but there was no other way.

"W-w-what did you just ask?" She had begun to shake. How could Harry ask if she wanted this baby. Of course she didn't. It was a curse on her. The child would never live anyway and if they didn't find a counter-curse soon, she would die too.

"I asked if you wanted to have the baby?" He repeated.

"How can you ask that Harry?" she was getting mad now. "Of course, I don't want the baby. This is the curse that is going to kill me. There is nothing that can be done to save me. I'm going to die if I can't find a way to get rid of the child. Malfoy made it so that any attempt at abortion or c-section, would result in my immediate death. Would you want to have a baby that was going to kill you and also die?" Ginny was sobbing by the end of this. Tears streeked her cheeks and Harry leaned over and gently wiped them away.

"I'm sorry Ginny. I didn't mean to upset you like this, but I had to know. If you could have the baby and still live, would you want it?" He asked sitting down next to her and pulling her into his arms.

"I don't know Harry. I always thought that my first child would be the childe of the man that I love."

"This Child could be," Harry stated quietly.

"What do you mean?" Ginny had pulled away from him now. This child she carried could be the child of the man she loved? How was that posssible? What did Harry mean?

"Ginny there is a spell. It can make the child you carry that of the man you love."

"How does it work?"

"It is called "The Spell of True Love." The thing is, is you have to truely love the other person for the spell to work, and if you don't then you and the child will die."

"What is the spell?"

"Well, the man that you truely loves can become the father of her baby."

"How?"

"Well," harry gulped, "by becoming intamintly involved with you."

"You mean have sex?"

"Yes."

"Harry," Ginny stuterred, "Would you be willing to be the father?"

"Are you sure Ginny?"

"Yes, Harry."

Harry didn't say anything. He just pulled her to him. He was happy that she had chosen him, but wasn't sure if she was making the right choice.

A/N: I know that I am rushing into this part, but the next chapter will have a relapse. Harry and Ginny are just not going to jump into this spell right away.

Thanks to Gwen Potter for the title Loving Comfort. It is the one that I have desided to use. Thank you again for the title.
