After almost three hours in the waiting room Hermione came through and announced that everyone was allowed back into the room. Harry nearly knocked her flat as he hurried to get past her into the room.
Ginny was still unconscious, Harry took his seat beside her once more.
"Is she ok Mione?" He asked.
"She's going to be fine, now don't worry."
"What about the baby?"
"Also fine, one of my assistants is taking care of it down the hall."
Harry continued to question Hermione about the baby, about Ginny, and anything else that seemed appropriate at the time; finally she could take it no longer. She beckoned one of her assistants, whispered to her, then the assistant left the room, she returned barely a minute later, with a small bundle of pink blankets, she handed the baby to Harry, who was immediately silenced.
Before everyone even had a chance to crowd Harry to see the beautiful baby girl there was a knock at the door. One of Hermione's assistants answered the knock, she could be heard arguing with someone else before she turned back to Hermione.
"Um, head Healer Weasley?"
"Yes Patricia?"
"Umm well the receptionist tells me that there is an angry Weasley mob outside, demanding entry, your husband is among them."
"Mob? Oh no, let me speak to them before they come through." Hermione left the room, for a few minutes before she returned with a subdued Weasley mob trailing, apparently she had some of Molly's crowd control techniques buried somewhere.
The Weasley's entered the room receiving a intimidating stare from Harry signaling that if Hermione had been unsuccessful at silencing them he would not be. Once everyone was silent, Harry shot a questioning look at Molly.
"I figured that now was as good a time as any for a full family reunion." She shrugged.
Harry nodded in approval and smiled at her gratefully.
It was at that moment that Ginny began to stir, Harry shifted himself and the gorgeous baby girl in his arms, slightly to face Ginny as she woke. Harry took her hand just as her eyelids gently fluttered open, "Déjà vu," she commented smiling.
"Glad to see you finally decided to wake up," Harry joked.
She grinned before she spoke once more, "Harry where's our baby?"
"She's right here, don't you worry."
"She? You mean we had a little girl?"
"Yep, red hair and all Gin, she looks just like her mother." As he spoke Harry stood up and surrendered the pink bundle to Ginny.
The smile that crossed Ginny's face as she held her daughter close for the first time was one of pure ecstasy, she saw nothing except for her daughter and Harry, nothing else mattered.
"Gin," Harry began, pulling from her revere. "What are you going to name her?"
"There's only one name I would consider, Lily, what do you think?"
"I wouldn't have it any other way." He replied smiling, before kissing both Ginny and Lily on their foreheads.
Molly walked over to stand on the other side of her daughter, and Granddaughter. "Ginny dear, I have a surprise for you." As she spoke Molly gestured around her.
For the first time since she had woken up Ginny actually looked around the room, and now that she had seen them she wondered how she could have missed the twenty-nine smiling Weasleys surrounding her bed. "Bill, Charlie, Fred, George, Ron, Angelina, Alicia, Fleur? I can't believe you're all here; wow, there's a lot of you all these days!" she exclaimed as she stared at her many nephews and nieces, seventeen to be exact.
Each of her brothers then took it in turns to introduce all of his children to both her and Harry. Charlie went first.
"Ginny!" he said as he hugged her, "This is my wife Belinda, and our three beautiful daughters, Katherine, Genevieve and Kelly." He said as her gestured to the only adult in the room she did not recognize, and the three girls huddled around her.
George went next, pulling Alicia with him "Good to see ya again sis, this is Matthew, Jackington and our twin girls, Karen and Jacqueline." He said as he gestured to his daughters.
"Ginny, glad you're back with us!" Bill said as he hugged her. "These are our three, Zachary, Ellie and Rosanna." He pointed at his three children as he spoke.
"Hey sis, good to see ya." Fred said as he moved over to her. "The twins are Alexander and Jackson, then there's Amy, Alison and Raquel."
As Fred moved back to the edge of the room with the rest of the family, Ginny looked at all of them, still not quite believing that they were all with her again. All she could manage to say was, "Well, you lot certainly have been busy haven't you?" then she laughed and everyone joined in too.
"Ginny, we're so sorry we never listened to you, it's just that Percy's death was a shock to all of us and we just didn't want to believe what you had to say, and at the time it was just easier to blame you." Bill said at last.
"Look you were right to blame me for his death, I did kill him, but he begged for me to do it. I offered to let him go free, to never tell a soul that he'd been a death eater, but he said that he'd never be able to live with the shame. I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't have but-"
"Ginny it's ok, we forgive you, if anything we should be the one's saying sorry, for not believing you, or giving you the chance to explain your side of the story. We're sorry Gin, really we are." Charlie finished.
"Thank you, I've waited so long to hear those words from you that I started to believe that I didn't deserve them." Ginny said to all her brothers.
"Don't believe that Gin, ever." Said Molly as she wrapped her arms around her baby, her little girl. Except Ginny wasn't her baby girl anymore, well not really, she was someone's mummy now, she had a little family of her own, and in her stubbornness Molly had missed that point at which her baby girl had become a woman, with a life and family all her own.
Technically the end although not quite…
