Telling Tacey
Hermione levitated him to their bed and sat by him. After two hours, he woke up, still in the state of shock.
"What happened?" he asked in a rather woozy voice. He looked for his glasses and Hermione handed them to him.
"You fainted. You're fine now, I hope," she replied calmly. Inside she felt like crying, but she has to hold it in.
"I had a dream. You said you were pregnant," he said to her. Hermione sighed, closed her eyes, and then looked at him straight in the eyes. She studied him for a while, and then leaving to the bathroom to get ready. He sat on the bed.
"Well, you know what they say. Sometimes dreams do come true," she said humbly from the bathroom.
"Yeah. Right," said Harry sheepishly. After a moment of thinking, he rushed to the bathroom to find Hermione brushing her hair. She had that expression as if nothing's happened.
"Honey?" Harry asked cautiously.
"Yes, dear?" Hermione said, still brushing her hair.
"Are you...pregnant?" Harry asked. Hermione set her brush down to the vanity. Tears fell down her cheek. She turns to her husband.
"I...uh...Yeah. Yes, Harry, I am," she said firmly.
"Oh my..."Harry started.
"Don't faint on me again," said Hermione. It was silent and Hermione returned to brushing her hair. Harry just stood there, and then out of the ordinary lifted his wife up and spinning her in the bathroom.
"Harry!" Hermione cried.
"'Mione we're pregnant again! This is great!" Harry exclaimed happily. He set her down.
"You mean you're not upset?" asked Hermione.
"No! Of course not! Why would I be! Hermione, we're having another baby! This is fantastic!" exclaimed Harry.
"Well...I...no. Are you happy?" asked Hermione tentatively.
"Love, you just made me the happiest man alive!" said Harry. He then kissed her.
"Eew! Gross!" said Tacey loudly. Harry and Hermione broke apart and look down to find their daughter standing in the bathroom door.
"You were supposed to be at school! What happened?" asked Hermione.
"Well, you were late by 30 minutes and the teacher drove me home. You couldn't be reached, she said," she explained in her matter-of-fact tone.
"Oh, no. Oh no,no,no! Baby I'm sorry!" said Hermione, thus taking Tacey into her arms.
"It's ok. Just don't forget next time. And I heard screaming, care to tell me what happened?" she asked, giving her parents her tell-me-or-I'm-not-speaking-to-you look. Harry and Hermione glanced at each other.
"Might as well," said Harry in a low voice. Hermione nodded, and they took Tacey and sat her down on the sofa in the living room. Hermione and Harry sat down on the two armchairs right in front of her. They sighed excitedly.
"Tacey, first we want to let you know that no matter what happens, we will always love you and you'll always be our first baby girl, ok?" said Harry. Tacey just looked at him in a confused manner and nodded.
"Good. Now, for the next nine months, Mummy's going to have a person growing inside her. This person is going to be your brother or sister! Aren't you excited?" said Hermione.
"You mean I'm not gonna be an only child anymore?" said Tacey with her green eyes wide open.
"No, darling," said Hermione, still smiling.
"THIS IS GREAT! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I LOVE YOU GUYS!" exclaimed Tacey, and she jumped up to hug her parents. Harry and Hermione can only smile excitedly about the baby and Tacey's reaction. Tacey let go of her parents, who are still beaming, and she grew a curious look in her face. She sat herself down on the sofa.
"I have one question, though," she asked curiously.
"Ask away, love," said Harry.
"Where do babies come from?" she asked curiously. Hermione and Harry can only turn scarlet. They were NOT expecting that question and they are SO NOT ready to tell Tacey.
