"Hermione, where did we put the towels?" Ron yelled, looking through boxes. He was going to be late for work, he still had to take a shower and he couldn't do that without a towel.

They had only moved into thier flat yesterday, and had yet to find a place for everything. It was a mess, half unpacked boxes littered the floor, and Hermione kept making him move around the furniture, but he wouldn't give it up for anything.

Hermione bustled into the bedroom, holding a clean towel. "Here you go."

"Thanks." He pecked her on the cheek and rushed off to the shower. He stepped into the hot water and hurridly tried to wash himself. Working at the Ministry was going well, it paid the bills at least. He started before they moved in and although he didn't want to make a career out of being a 'gopher' for his dad, it was fine for the moment.

Jumping back out of the shower almost as fast as he had jumped in, he dressed and ran out to the kitchen. Hermione was sitting at the small kitchen table sipping tea and reading The Daily Prophet.

"Ron, remember that we have a healer appointment at six, so try to get home a little early would you?"

"I'll try." Ron bent down and kissed her, than grabbed a slice of toast off her plate.

"Have you ever been bitten by a hungry pregnant woman?" Hermione asked.

"No time to talk love, late for work." He disapparted.

Hermione laughed and took a sip of her tea, Ginny should be over soon, actually she was supposed to be over twenty minutes ago, as they were supposed to pick up on he lessons. She was doing well, in Hermione's opinon, she could do most of the work herself and only needed help with some of the subjects.

The fireplace turned green and a very frazzled looking Ginny stepped out of it. "Sorry I'm late," The books she was carrying spilled out of her hands and onto the floor, "I didn't get much sleep last night."

Hermione went over to help her friend pick up the books that were strewn all over the floor. "Why didn't you sleep?"

"Couldn't relax, things kept running through my mind, I couldn't get them to stop."

"What kinds of things?"
"Oh, you know, awful things."
"About Harry?"

"Yeah." Ginny's eyes filled with tears and she tried to hold them back, "You know what, I uh, I'm not really, I don't think I can consentrate today..."

Before Hermione could say anything, Ginny had walked back to the fireplace, leaving her school books on the floor, and pulled some floo powder out of her pocket. She could barley get the words "The Burrow" out, but she did and than disappeared into the flames.

Ron and Hermione sat outside Healer Bets office, waiting to be seen. Today was the day they found out the sex of the baby. His knee jiggled with anticipation and he felt Hermione's hand cover it, "Your making me nervous." She laughed.

"Ron, Hermione come on in." Healer Bets said, and held the door open for the couple. She gave Hermione a little privacy to get changed into a gown and situated before running her wand over Hermione's belly.

"Alright, good, good. Ah, lovely. You are having a girl."

Ron was bursting with happiness, he would have loved a boy but deep, deep down he really wanted a little girl. He knew Hermione did too, even though she hadn't come right out and say it.

"Everything is developing great, Ron, I hope your taking good care of Hermione."

"Other than stealing my toast this morning, he's doing a pretty good job." Hermione grinned.

Harry had just had the most exhausting day of his life. The werewolves were a brutal bunch and it took a lot of energy just being in that cave. He knew it was for the best, him doing this alone but sometimes he caught himself wishing Ron and Hermione were with him. He could talk to Lupin, he knew that, but it was different.

Streching out on the sofa by the fire, he closed his eyes and tried to sleep. Just as he was drifting off there was a knock at the cabins door. He grabbed his wand, no one knew where this cabin was besides Lupin and himself, and Lupin certainly wouldn't knock on this own door.

Cautiously he made his way to the door and opened it, pointing it straight at the intruder. The wand fell from his hand and clattered onto the floor.

"What...how did you...Ginny."

Whatever he was going to say flew out the window when Ginny took his face in her hands and kissed him.

A/N: Whoa, two chapters in one day.

Next Chapter: Hermione is rushed to St. Mungos and Ginny has some explaining to do.
