Chapter 2: Troubles begin
Harry took the crying baby form his cradle. Ginny was still sleeping, so he had to take care of their son.
"I'm here, David. It's ok. What's wrong? You hungry or did you do a poo- poo?"
David looked at his father with big eyes. Harry laughed.
"You smell, so it's definitely a poo-poo."
David giggled as Harry changed his diaper.
"Will you stay still?"
When Harry finally managed to put a clean diaper on, David looked like he was about to cry again.
"What now? Hungry?"
Tears began to spill out of the little boys eyes.
Harry shook his head and took David to the kitchen and made him a bottle. David began to drink eagerly.
Halfway through the bottle an owl swept in through the open window and dropped of 'The Daily Prophet'. Harry managed to pay him and feed David at the same time. One quick look at the front-page and he almost dropped his son. He looked at the headline again to see if he had read it right.
'Mysterious disappearance of an employee of the Ministry of Magic.'
Harry swallowed hard. Did he really dare to read what was in there? Did he really want to know? One thing was for sure, whatever was in there people would think he could fix it, just like he did with Voldemort. He decided he dared to read it, if he didn't he would hear about it anyway.
'Percy Weasley, personal assistant of the Minister of Magic, has mysteriously disappeared. Nobody seems to know where he is. His wife Patricia will not give any comment. Percy had been notified of all activities in the Ministry. Some people there seem to think The Dark Lord has found a way to get back to live and took him to find for that information, others think Darth Eaters are the cause of this. The Minister will put a group of Aurors on the case. Head of this group will be Harry Potter, as soon as he gets back to work for parental leave. Let's hope this will be cleared up soon.'
"Great, the paper knows I have a job even before I do." Harry muttered.
"What kind of job, Har?" Ginny asked as she entered the kitchen.
"You better sit down before you read this."
Ginny read the article and paled. Percy may have never given in to his mistake and also never made up with his family, but that didn't mean his family didn't care.
Harry hugged Ginny with one arm, David still in the other.
"What are you going to do, Harry?"
"I'm not going to run to the Ministry to take on this job, Gin. They might want that, but I'm still on parental leave, like they said in the paper, and I'm not going to leave you until that is over."
Ginny nodded.
"We should go to your parents, see how they are taking the news."
Ginny nodded again.
"You eat something, I'll dress David."
"Thanks, Harry."
Harry gave her a quick kiss and then went up to the nursery and took care of David, so he was ready for his trip the Burrow.
~~~The Burrow~~~
Harry and Ginny apparated into the living-room.
"Harry! Ginny!"
"Hi mom." Ginny replied as she hugged her mother.
"Have you heard?" Arthur asked.
"Yeah, we did." Harry said. "But it doesn't mean I'll be running back to the Ministry just because they want me to."
"Are you really sure about that, Harry?" Ron asked, somehow he had had found it in his heart to forgiven Percy for that letter.
"Look, I got a family who need me to and if I stay on parental leave, I can work out what to do, so I don't have to do it on the spot."
"Smart."
"That's called using your brain, Ron." Hermione giggled.
Small smiles appeared on the other faces in the room. Every Weasley had came to the house as soon as they had read 'The Daily Prophet'.
"What will you do first, Harry?" Charlie asked.
"I think I'll go to Dumbledore and see if he knows about any dark activities lately."
"Smart move." Billy complimented.
"I'll sent someone to go to Patricia, see if she knows something that might be of help."
"That's going to be tricky." Fred said.
"That's why he'll let you do it." George joked.
Then Molly noticed David in Harry's arms.
"Oh, is that my grandson?"
"Yeah." Harry smiled and handed Molly the small boy.
"He's so cute!"
After that all attention was on David, Percy forgotten for the time being.
