Hermione mentally slapped herself. Ron was her boyfriend, and she liked him a lot. But you don't LOVE him, the little voice in her head said. She turned her attention to the invitation samples Fleur was showing her and Ginny. Nodding and politely smiling at each one, she pretended to like them. Harry walked over to her and enveloped her in his arms.
"Hullo. It's nice to see you again. How are you? You look a little sick." Harry kissed Hermione's cheek and whispered this to her.
She smiled at him gratefully and said "I'm fine. It's just this excitement. Is it just me, or is Ginny looking a little plump around the stomach?" She changed the subject.
Harry grinned sheepishly and told her softly "Don't say anything yet. She wants to announce it tonight at dinner."
"Oh, Harry! Congratulations! Oh, I'm so happy for you!" Hermione embraced him again. She grinned from ear to ear. Mrs. Weasley moved the group out to the garden, where tree large tables were set up side by side.
"Dinner is coming up. You lot sit down and talk for a while." Mrs. Weasley said, and then made her way to the kitchen. There was a great deal of bustling as everyone tired to sit down next to who they wanted. Eventually one side of the tables sat Charlie, Fleur, Penelope, Percy's girlfriend, Fred, Ginny, and Angelina. The other side sat Percy, Mr. Weasley, Alicia, George, Harry, and Bill right next to Hermione. Chatter filled the garden as Mrs. Weasley brought out the pots and pans. The minute she sat down hands reached for the food.
Mr. Weasley was telling Percy and Alicia about a recent item that he had confiscated from someone. "Billy Blibbers sold a pair of stockings to a poor muggle woman the other day. When she put them on and went to the shop they pulled themselves down! She pulled them up again but it kept on happening. Pity, she never wanted to wear stockings again. We had to use a strong Memory charm on her." Alicia tried not to giggle as Percy shot her a disapproving look.
Hermione watched as Penelope tried to teach Fred and Ginny how to perform a charm to cool their food of a little bit. Charlie was telling Fleur about a nest of baby Blood-scale dragons that he had found in the middle of London. Angelina ate happily, without talking. She looked like all she wanted was a good meal. Hermione thought this made sense, as she played Quidditch for the Wimbourne Wasps. That day her team won the playoffs.
Clink Clink Harry tapped his spoon on his glass of Fire Whisky. "Ginny and I have an announcement to make." He stood and walked over to his wife. She rose next to him. "Ginny and I are going to be parents." The silence only lasted a few seconds before and outburst of joy.
"Wow!"
Mrs. Weasley started crying tears of joy.
"Blimey!"
"Congratulations!"
"How many months?"
"Girl or boy?"
Ginny stood tall and beamed. "Thank you! I am five months pregnant. We are very happy to announce that I am going to have twins!" The eruption was larger this time. People rushed to hug Ginny and pat Harry on the back. Sooner or later the group calmed down.
"I would like to propose a toast." Bill raised his glass. "To love."
"To love." Came the response. The rest of the evening Hermione felt like she was floating. She wasn't sure what caused this, the Fizzlewine, or the delight of the news.
That's chapter four. Hope you like it. I really wanted someone in this story to have a baby, so I decided on Ginny and Harry. Enjoy!
Pandagrrl: Thanks! I had to write a small chapter cause this is kinda long.
