Mates, Dates, and Pregnant Women
A/N: Sorry, but we, as Kaitlin has just brilliantly stated, are stupid people who don't ever update. That about sums it up. You see, the reason we never updated was because we didn't really have time, considering everything else that was going on, such as finals, holidays, homework, etc. So have sympathy for our sorry arses by reading and reviewing. We promise to update faster in the future!

Chapter 3:
Ginny and Harry were correct in assuming that this silence was indeed only the calm before a storm. And this storm- tornado, it would more correctly be- came by way of one Ron Weasley, youngest brother to one party, best friend to another.
In a deadly voice reminiscent of the recently vanquished Dark Lord, Hermione bit out, "You and Ginny are….pregnant. How in the hell did this happen?"
Harry grinned embarrassedly and twisted in his seat before beginning, "Well, you see Mione, when two people (usually a boy and a girl) love each other very much, they-" He was cut off by Ron's yell.
"I don't want to hear this! I'm going to kill you, you" again, we choose to cut out several words here, because Ron's language is not appropriate as well as rather limited, and he will later be punished by his wife for it. "bastard! How dare you go and KNOCK UP MY SISTER! I'll KILL you, I will!"
Though rather amused, in his head, Harry was, we're sure, kicking himself for his lack of foresight. Of course Ron would be extremely peeved with him. However, he should have been paying attention to the goings-on around him, because Ron was taking his threat quite seriously and had, at that moment, jumped across the table to strangle his best friend. Or perhaps we should say once best friend, considering the fact that his hands are now around Harry's throat in a less than friendly way.
Hermione lazily removed her wand from her robes and, conscious of the fact that Harry's face was now turning blue, and she wasn't likely to get answers from him this way, Wingardium leviosa'da her husband to another part of the room before setting him down rather hardly and returning her wand to her pocket. Full of rage and fury, she then slowly walked over to Harry, who in turn cringed as he awaited the explosion that was sure to come.
"You got Gin- sweet little innocent Gin (here the girl in question flinched slightly and rolled her eyes)- PREGNANT? Are you HAPPY you took advantage of a girl that is not even out of school yet? Are you HAPPY that you BETRAYED the Weasley's trust in such a way? Are you HAPPY that-"
At that moment Ron fell to the floor in a dead faint, barely missing hitting his head on the edge of the coffee table. Hermione returned to the conversation, a strange glint in her eye. "Are you HAPPY that you nearly killed my husband with the news? Are you HAPPY that he will be ranting endlessly for the next five years, leaving ME to listen? Are you HAPPY that-"
Harry cut her off at that point. "Yes, actually, I am rather HAPPY with this; look what I got out of the deal!" He grinned widely at Gin.
Ginny turned pink for a moment and smiled shyly back, glad that she didn't have to fake her embarrassment. Or happiness, for that matter, though she would deny it vehemently if questioned later.
Hermione took a moment to "aww" at the sweetness of the statement before her face once more became hard and unyielding. "Well, I'm glad YOU are, because no one else is at this point! I've a question for you, you inconsiderate ass. How is Ginny supposed to finish school with this problem? How will she complete her education, huh Harry? Since you seem to have the most brilliant answers to everything, why don't you share?"
Ginny turned an angry shade of red and stated, quite pissed, "He doesn't have to share anything with you! This is GIN's problem-if, indeed, it is a problem- NOT Hermione and Ron's. Yeah, Harry aided me in getting "KNOCKED UP" as Ron says, but I HAD A PART IN IT TOO! It WAS consensual, THEREFORE it was JUST as much MY fault as it was his!"
Harry smiled gratefully at his savior before sticking his tongue out at Hermione. "Hah. I don't have to answer if I don't want to. So there!"
His friend just rolled her eyes. "Very mature, Harry. If you are going to have a child and get married, you must act more your age."
"AND GET WHAT?" Harry questioned loudly, rubbing his ears, for he was sure that something must be wrong, because he COULDN'T have just heard what he had thought he'd heard.
Hermione looked at him, surprised with his outburst. "Why, married of course! What else could you do? You can't just saddle Gin with all of the responsibilities, and she not even out of Hogwarts yet. You'll have to get married soon, I think, before Gin starts showing. Maybe this fall, when she has a break at school, so she doesn't have to worry about missing school; Fall weddings are beautiful anyway, wouldn't you say?" She looked expectantly over at the other two, and now it was Harry's turn to faint.
Okay, once again, we'd like to apologize for our lack of updating. We hope you all liked the chapter, and promise to update more soon!

Jace's Cage: Lol. We're glad you liked the story so much! I'm not overly fond of oatmeal cookies either, personally, though Kaitlin is. So, chocolate chip cookies for you. Dozens of them, if you so desire. Winks Anyway, I'm v. happy you enjoyed Hermione-she was very fun to write in here!
Honey P: LOL. We thought so too-Ron being in love with Harry, that is! grins Thanks for the review, and the compliment!
GinnyPotter89: We will be sure to update more frequently in the future, we swear:D Thanks fortelling us; though we most likely won't go back and change it now, we will be sure to remember thatfor coming stories!
kate:thanks!
HaydenRocks14: Nice to have a reviewer who appreciates evilness as much as we ourselves do. MWAHAHAHAHA! Glad you like!
Ellie: I never thought of it that way, but you're right! LOL. Glad you enjoy!
Me: Thanks, and we will!
Shantelle: We will, of course, add romance...it's the whole point of the story, or will be at least...we can't write a decent story without it! LOL. However, we must first build up to it. Thanks for the compliment!
Dagon: So do we:D
The Weaving Wheel: LOL. We were just talking about how much we love you as a reviewer. :D We will of course, continue:D
An AMERICAN (or that same American): We've chosen to remark on this review seperately...
dreamerdoll: First, lets start with this: you don't have to be reading this story if we piss you off that much, and truthfully, if you are going to react like this to a slight joke, then we'd probably appreciate it if you didnt, considering the first comment we recieved from you. As for the joke, it was exactly that. We were just screwing around. We weren't meaning to insult anyone in any way, however, as Harry and the rest are from England, of course they will have slightly different opinions of us, as we are more radical in some ways. If it disturbs you so much, stop reading it!
Magical Maniac Girl: Darn, I knew she'd take all the good points! -snaps fingers- Crap. Anyway, I would firstly like to ask you not to use foul language or even MASKED foul language as neither of us appreciate it.. Also, I noticed that out of all of our reviewers, none of them happened to find our comment offensive in any way... If they had, I'm sure they would have confronted us about it in a POLITE andCIVIL manner, and I highly doubt none ofthem are from the US. So yeah,you sort of complimented us in yourreview so I will thank you for the only sign of kindness you seemed to show.
Once again, thanks to our reviewers, and cookies -of any variety- if you review again!
