John shook his head as he watched his younger sister play with her hair in her bedroom mirror. He really didn't understand why it took girls so long to get ready for such simple events. Especially since they were going to be sitting and eating half the time anyhow. "Oy, Alex." He said, and she looked back at her with a slight frown. "Mum sent me to get you. We've got to get to the Burrow BEFORE our great grandparents you know."
"I know. I just want to make sure I look good. I'm gonna send pictures to Patrick and TJ." She informed. John frowned at her. "They'll be sending some too. They went home for thanksgiving as well." John was about to say something smart when Ron entered the room.
"What are you two doing? We've got to go." He said, and they followed him down the stairs. John noticed Alex continue to mess with his hair and stopped her.
"You look fine." He reassured her. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Fred and George were sitting next to each other along with Ron and harry as they listened to the stories their grandparents were telling them. Bill and Charlie were lucky and had gotten out of it be volunteering to help out with setting things up. As for the kids, they were all sitting on one couch, and sleeping soundly. Even Harry was dozing off.
"Really grandpa. We know all these stories. We were there." Informed Percy in annoyance but grandpa Weasley didn't accept this, and shook his head knowingly.
"Yes, but its good to keep fond memories alive. Now, where was I? Oh yes, the twins first birthday." The old man continued his stories and the others sat there with dazed looks. Meanwhile, the women were in their own la-la lands.
"So everything between you two is good again?" asked Ginny brightly, and Angelina nodded, smiling cheerfully.
"Well I can't wait until this little one is born." Said Penelope, patting her stomach fondly. "Percy says he thinks it may be a boy."
"That's what they all say." Informed Alicia. Mrs. Weasley nodded in agreement.
"Arthur did as well. Of course, he was right six out of seven times." She said and the women all laughed. The door opened and a dazed fred entered the room, dropping in a chair next to his wife.
"I can't take it any more." He groaned and let his head drop on the table. Angelina rubbed his back sympathetically and smiled.
"Still telling stories, are they?" she asked and he nodded.
"They've been going at it for the past two hours. Is the food almost done?" he asked grumpily.
"In another couple of minutes dear. Now why don't you go wake up the kids and help get everyone to the table." She suggested happily. Fred began to pout, but got up and obeyed. Mrs. Weasley shook her head and turned to Angelina.
"Now all these years you've been married and yet he still hasn't matured a bit has he?" she asked. Angelina smiled and nodded. Soon, the whole family was sitting around the table, the younger kids trying to grab some food and being scolded by their mothers.
"Alright then, who will start the prayer for us?" asked Mr. Weasley brightly. Quick to begin eating, Ron volunteered and it ended with Jordan going on about no one knows what.
"Wonderful job, Molly." Said Grandma Weasley. "You have really out done yourself. And these children! I would have never thought Ronald was already married with kids!" she said, and that began her story about when she first found out she was pregnant. Everyone was so deep into their own worlds, she more so talking to herself.
"Josh, don't do that, it's disgusting!" snapped Sara as her little brother, Jake, and Jordan showed their chewed up food to one another. Jackie laughed and Alex hid her giggles so that Hermione wouldn't say anything.
"Leave them alone, Sara. You wouldn't know they were being disgusting if you weren't staring at them so hard." Informed John, who was sitting between Matt and Mikey, who were throwing pieces of food at each other.
"Guess what gramps, Fred and I have our OWN joke shop!" announced George proudly. Grandpa Weasley looked up and grinned at them.
"Do you really?" he asked and they immediately launched into their own long story. Angelina rolled her eyes and leaned across the table towards Alicia.
"I think they've been dying to tell this story all evening." Soon Ginny was scolding her son and daughter for their non sop bickering and Hermione was making Matt switch seats with Fred so that her two youngest could no longer secretly throw food at each other.
"And what do you boys do?" asked Grandma Weasley, turning to Bill, Charlie and Percy, who were all having their own personal conversations. It didn't take long for the usual Weasley bickering to begin. Percy was arguing with Bill about his job while Fred and George snapped at each other about Quidditch with Harry, Ron, and Charlie. Mrs. Weasley began to become annoyed when her husband got involved. The women were having their own discussions, and the younger kids were throwing bits of food at each other while the adults talked. Of course it wasn't long till the women were snapping at their kids and the older men took the Quidditch talk personally.
"Uh. excuse me." Began Penelope timidly as Mrs. Weasley shouted at Bill and Percy for using curse words in front of the younger children.
"Penelope, is something wrong?" asked Angelia, standing up and moving towards the annoyed woman, who was holding her stomach and looked as if she was in pain.
"I think its time for the baby." She groaned and everyone stopped what they were doing.
"SHE"S HAVING THE BABY!" announced Percy and they began rushing around the room in panic. Ron rolled his eyes. He had been through this four rimes already so he knew what to do. Fred and George helped get Penelope out her chair and Alicia and Hemrione grabbed all the little kids, putting their coats on them and trying to keep them calm as the other older men panicked.
"Percy calm down!" announced Harry, grabbing his brother in law by the shoulders and looking him in the eyes. "Now we've got to get to the hospital in one piece. You go home and get her things and meet us at St. Mungo's, alright." Said Harry and the Weasley nodded his head slowly in understanding before taking a deep breath and apparating away. They were all about to go when fudge appeared in the living room.
"Cornelius, we were just taking Percy's wife to the hospital to deliver her baby." Said Mr. Weasley brightly nodding in the direction of the young woman who was standing between Fred and George doing her breathing exercises.
"That's wonderful news, but I'm afriad I'm going to have to pull Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley away from this wonderful family event. The dark mark has been spotted near Diagon Alley."
