Chapter 3
Ron was out for a while before he stirred. Hermione had somewhat pulled him on to the couch and sat by him worried to death.
"Mione?" He said when he finally awoke.
"Oh Ron are you ok?" She asked.
"I was dreaming. You told me you were having a baby." He looked up at her. She was smiling and glowing. "It's true isn't it?" She nodded.
"'Tis true Love… I mean Ron. I am having a baby." She had almost given him a reason for marrying her. Her love. She realized that her brain was right and she did love him had loved him for some while. She just didn't know that.
"You called me love. Hermione do you really love me?" Ron asked looking at her, she just nodded, and he pulled her into his arms.
"I love you, Ron. I really do. I have since I told you that you had dirt on your nose on the train first year." She started to shed tears and he held her close but couldn't tell her he loved her yet. There was a knock on the door and Hermione wiped her eyes and got up.
"Pizza for a Miss Evans." The person said on the other side.
"Evans? Hermione what is he talking about?" Ron asked looking at her questioningly.
"Hold on, Ron, I have to get that," Hermione said opening up the door.
"That will be ten pounds, Miss." The pizza boy said and Hermione handed him a ten pound note plus a tip. When she shut the door she walked to the kitchen and grabbed a plate for her pizza and came back into the living room.
"I use Harry's mother's maiden name when I deal with muggles so my parents don't get questioned every time I do something strange. We had agreed that when I graduated I would use a different name when I am around Muggles. I know I repeat myself but I am SOOOO hungry. Did you want some?" She asked and Ron made a face.
"No thanks Hermione what is exactly on that thing?" he asked with interest.
"Oh just pepperoni, mushrooms, Green olives, and sauerkraut. Yum!" She said and laughed as Ron looked sick. "I know it looks nasty Ron but ever since I found out I was having a baby I have had a huge craving for sauerkraut. I used to hate sauerkraut." Again he made a face. Then he suddenly looked pale.
"What are we going to tell our parents? My Mum will kill us. I mean I know she wants to have grandkids… Hermione marry me, I know that you don't want this now but if you marry me now our parents won't suspect…" Hermione stopped him with a hand.
"Ron I love you but I don't think the baby is the best reason to get married. I want you to marry me because you love me and not the baby. I want… no need to know that. I'm sorry I can't have a loveless marriage, a one-sided marriage. It wouldn't work." Hermione put down her pizza and walked over to the door. "I think you need some time to think about this and to tell your family. Owl me in a week. Then we can talk some more." She said and Ron walked over to her and stood in front of her, kissed her cheek patted her flat stomach and left with out a word. When she shut the door Hermione leaned against it, slid to the floor, and started to sob. She had broken her dreams with that one stupid speech about her wanting him to love her. She sat there for hours forgetting about her craving for pizza and thought about the way he smiled at her this morning so caring so lovingly… Like he cared about her health. She just didn't know what to do. At 5:00 she went to bed after she put the pizza away. Once in bed she stared at the ceiling for hours. Around ten she fell into a dreamless sleep.
The man watched as Ron stormed out of Hermione's building and followed him unsure of whom Ron was. Suddenly a memory came to him. He was fourteen years old. There were more students at his school then usual. It was a contest. The Trisomthingorother Tournament he couldn't remember. His name was picked out of a goblet. But he had never entered. He remembered a girl saying "'e is too young 'e is just a little boy" it made him so mad to be called a little boy, There were other people who accused him of some how forcing him into the tournament, That man was there they were in the same year… friends. God what was his name Roy…no it was…
"Ron!" He burst out. The other man turned around at the sound. He (the mystery man) hid behind a tree before Ron had turned around.
"I must be going mental because I heard Harry's voice. Great first Hermione gets pregnant I flunk my test, then Hermione turns down my marriage proposal, and then I go insane, what a great day this has been, just peachy, just… bloody peachy." Ron muttered to himself then looked around and disappeared right in front of the other man who for reasons unknown to him knew exactly where to go. Once he was there standing in front of the guy named Ron's apartment building he saw Ron reappear next to the trash dumpster.
Ron had entered his apartment and shut the door. He then leaned his against it and slid down his face in his hands. Oh Merlin what am I going to do? I at 19 am going to be a father. A FATHER! He thought as he got up again and picked up the vase his mother had placed there earlier that week full of flowers. They were dead now. He threw it across the room. The vase shattered into a million pieces dead flowers flying everywhere. He didn't realize that his window was open and his curses and the shattering glass could be heard outside. The man heard every word. Going over to the bench he sat down and then remembered something else about his fourth year at school. Ron was jealous of him. They had a big fight about the tournament.
"Congratulations." Ron had said as the messy haired boy walked in to the fourth year dormitories.
"What do you mean congratulations?" Ron had gone to say that no one else had been able to cross the age line and had asked how the messy haired boy had done it.
"What did you use the Invisibility Cloak?" Ron had asked. The memory had faded away. Harry Potter had remembered the Triwizard Tournament. However he did not remember his name. He wouldn't remember his name for quite some time.
Ok its done the Man has been revealed as Harry, Hermione refused Ron, and Ron breaks things what a chapter! big grin. oooo stars… Don't ask. Just so you know Harry's secret sister is going to take a little longer. As is A little bit royal, and Loving you this much is never two much. Sigh.
