AN: This is just a short little transition chapter going from the Hermione/Harry perspective to the Ron perspective. It also deals a little bit about how he feels about the new twins, but more of that will come later.

Ron waited until everyone's attention was on his mother and his aunt Ginny before he left the front hall. He ducked into the kitchen and the headed towards the back stairs. He couldn't escape the horrible sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach. Had they meant to have another child or was this a happy accident? Were they trying to push him back out of their lives? Had he not been the son they wanted? Were they tired of him so soon?

Before he realized it Ron had reached his room, but he didn't stop there. He walked past his room to the third floor. Once on the third floor he ducked into a quiet room had had found a few days before. It looked as if it was a room where they keep old furniture and toys. It was definitely a store room. If they came looking for him they probably wouldn't look for him here.

"Where did Ron go?" Hermione asked Harry once the congratulations had all been said.

"He disappeared into the kitchen once you made our little announcement."

"Do you think he's upset?"

"It did seem like it."

"Let's go talk to him."

Apparently his hiding place wasn't as good as he though because he had barely been sitting there for ten minutes, getting more and more worried, when he heard footsteps outside the door. The door opened and his parents walked in.

"Ron?" Hermione called. The room was dark and Ron was sitting in a particularly shaded corner.

"I'm here." Ron said walking out of the corner and plopping down on an old sofa.

"Are you alright?" Harry asked sitting down next to his son. Ron didn't answer.

"What's wrong Ron?" Hermione asked take the seat on Ron's opposite side.

"Nothing."

"There's no reason to be moody, Ron. Are you upset about the baby?"

"No." Ron said shortly. Hermione looked quizzically at Ron and could tell instantly that he was lying. He lied just like his father.

"Why are you upset Ron?"

"Am I not the son you wanted?"

"What?"

"Am I some kind of disappointment?"

"Of course not Ron. Why would you think that?" Again Ron didn't answer.

"Because of the baby?" Harry offered.

"Yes," Ron said quietly.

"Oh Ron, you're a wonderful son. It's been a joy to have you back in our lives."

"Then why are you having more children?"

"Because your mother and I wanted more children, neither of us had brothers or sisters and we both wanted large families. We decided to have another child now, though it turned out to be twins, because you are part of our lives again. Now you can be a part of your new sibling's life from the beginning."

"I didn't think of it that way." Hermione reached over, hugged Ron, and kissed the top of his head.

"Don't ever think we don't love you or want you in our lives. There wasn't a day that went by we didn't worry about you." Ron smiled.

"Thanks mum - dad."
