First, she had to tell her parents and family. That was going to be the opposite of fun. It was bad enough that they would know she wasn't a virgin anymore but then to know who she having the affair with. Well, she could see the end of her hard earned trust with her parents.
Apparating to the Burrow, she was greeted by her mom. She knew she would be since her mom still had that clock that told her where her children were, even Percy.
"Ginny!" Her mom enveloped her into a hug. "It's so good to see. You haven't been by lately. How are you? How are you eating?" Dragging her only daughter to the kitchen, she started preparing a sandwich for the redheaded girl.
"Hi Mum." Weary from her mom's boundless energy already, she sat at the table. Her mom would always keep her feed. Luckily, she hadn't inherited the genetics to put on all the weight from that food. "I've been eating fine, really. And I'm fine. Just a bit tired."
"Tired? Why are you tired? You were never tired before you graduated Hogwarts." Molly stopped chopping to glance over. "You do seem a bit drained dear. Perhaps you should take some Sickness Be Gone potion?"
"Oh, no... I-I'll be better in a couple of days." Shifting uncomfortably, she didn't like lying to her mom like this. She just didn't want to tell the story more than once. "When is Dad coming home?"
"Oh, he should be here in a bit. He's been coming home later and later since the defeat of You-Who-Know. As one of the few that were right before Sirius's death, he's become a bit of a celebrity there. It's good for him, you know. Apparently, he and Percy have even begun talking again." Molly tried to not smile but it was very hard.
"Oh. When is the next family dinner?" Ginny really wanted to find out so she could tell her parents before the dinner.
"Sunday week." Once a month the family got together for updates and so the grandchildren could play. As of right now there were only four grandchildren, but mentally Ginny counted five.
By now Ginny's sandwich was done so her mom brought it over to her along with some pumpkin juice. "Here you are." Sitting beside her daughter, she waited for her to eat.
They talked about the happenings in the family until her father home at a half past eight. Ginny asked her dad to sit down because she had news. Then she broke it.
"Mum. Dad. I have some big news." Ginny was fidgeting again.
"What is it sweetie?" Molly was concerned while Arthur just looked on silently.
"I'm pregnant." She said it as bluntly as possible.
"You're what??" That came from Molly. Arthur's mouth was open but nothing was coming out.
"I'm pregnant. Six weeks to be exact." Ginny had calculated the time up and found that she was two months pregnant. That meant it had to be two weeks into the affair that it had happened. If she got the day right, it was the night under the stars in the park.
"Who's the father?" Molly hadn't even been aware that her daughter was dating anyone.
Looking around, Ginny avoided their eyes for this news. "Draco Malfoy."
"WHAT???" This time it was Arthur that exploded.
"We met around the time I graduated and we attracted to each other... things just happened so quickly. They've ended now." Ginny saw the disappointment settle into her parents face.
"You're going to keep it." Molly wasn't asking, she was telling. "You'll move back here until after the baby is -"
"No Mum. I'm not moving back. I am keeping my child, no matter who the father, but I am not moving back. I made this mess and I need to deal with it." Ginny had thought long and hard about the options for the past two days, since the doctor congratulated her on the big event.
"Ginevra, listen to your mother." Arthur was unusually authoritative at the moment.
"Dad. I appreciate that but I have to do this on my own. And please don't tell the rest of the family yet. I still haven't told Draco and I want to do that before they know. I'll tell them at the family dinner." Ginny stood, leaving her plate and cup on the table.
"I love you both and I'll see you soon."
With a kiss on each of their cheeks, she left with a pop. She hoped her parents could understand eventually. Now all she had to do was get the courage up to talk to Draco and tell him. After his little attitude this afternoon, she was not looking forward to telling him the news.
She also hated to admit he was right. She had been burned and she couldn't bite back. Not now with her baby coming. She had a sinking feeling that she was going to be burned once again.
A/N: I hadn't planned on updating this so soon but these part of the story just wouldn't leave (thank Freckles y'all). I went ahead and wrote this. The next chapter will be up.. as soon as I get the energy. I hope you're enjoying it.
The chapter title is from "Papa Don't Preach," cause well.. it was rather appropriate.
Eve Granger, yep she's pregnant. I wanted a spin. Of course this story has been done a 100 times I'm sure but I have a slighter deeper angst in store so it won't be fluffy. Fluff and I don't get along. :) And thanks on the title. I was hoping people would like it. And my author name is the perfect way to not give my real one away. ;)
