A/N : So Here's Chapter 5! Thanks for the awesome reviews keep them comming!
Love is in the Air
Everyone was sitting nervously at Harry and Ron's wondering what to do next. The Order had been informed, as was the ministry. Harry sat on the couch in the living room. He wanted to be alone. He wanted Ginny back in his arms. He felt bloody horrible. Then as if his wish had come true, Ginny had magically apparated; her naked body shaking uncontrollably on the ground. Harry gasped horror struck at what he saw. His first instinct told him to grab the blanket that was sitting on the sofa and wrap it around her. " Oh my god Ginny! Love!" Harry held her in his arms and together they cried.
She didn't say a word. She wanted Harry to hold her. She wanted everything to go away. She was in so much pain from her ordeal.
"Oh my Lord, Ginny!" Molly shouted as she ran towards her daughter.
" No!" Ginny screamed. " Leave me alone! I just want Harry Please!" She begged. She hugged her mother and father but then went back to Harry.
"Ginny, love, how did you apparate? You are not of age yet! You will be expelled from Hogwarts!" Molly cried.
"It was a smart thing she did though, and really Molly your forgetting I am the Minister and she is my daughter too." Arthur said.
" Really mum would you rather I had been raped!" Ginny cried in between sobbs.
" Ginny, you could have seriously been injured in apparating; we need to see if you are splinched. And Oh Lord, you poor thing!" Molly gasped looking at Ginny's broken leg.
Ginny was holding Harry still. She was weak. "What happened love?" Harry asked her.
"I don't want-to talk about it right now." She said looking down.
Harry nodded. " You need to get checked out baby. We don't want you to get any worse and you could already be badly injured." Harry said. "Let Molly check you out. She knows what's best." Harry said.
Ginny looked over at him. She knew regardless of what she said, that Harry was right. She was in a lot of pain and she didn't feel up to fighting at this particular time. "Ok." She said. She moved to get up, but feel down fast. Harry caught her just in time. " Love, don't even think about walking." He said. Harry hoisted her up and carried her behind Molly into their bathroom.
Molly took her from there. Harry paced up and down the corridor. He waited for what seemed like forever, but it had only been a half hour. He could hear the hot bath water running. Briefly he heard words slip from the door like, 'you are still bleeding', and 'I don't know if that can heal fast'. Finally after a half hour later molly opened the door.
"Harry do you have something Ginny can wear briefly? I know your room is closest and she is well, she is fine, it's just she's tired." Molly said looking tired herself.
Harry nodded. He ran to his room and grabbed a plain black tee shirt that was way to big for her. "Will this do?" He asked.
"Thank you dear." Molly said.
Harry waited another minute or two and the door opened.
Ginny was bandaged up everywhere. She looked bloody gorgeous in his shirt though. He felt himself getting tight, but he pushed that thought away fast.
"Harry!" Ginny called to him. She held out her arms.
Harry picked her up and moved her into her bedroom. "Do you need anything at all?" Harry asked.
"Just you." Ginny said smiling weakly. Harry kissed her. "Ginny, I am so sorry I wasn't fast enough. If you would have… I don't know what I would have done." Harry began.
She cupped his face. "It's over now Harry. I'll tell you what happened when the time is right but for now I just want to rest." Ginny said lying her head upon her pillow.
Harry kissed her forehead. "I'll be right back I promise." He said. Ginny nodded and shut her eyes. Harry walked out of the room it was getting around 10 pm when everything had calmed back down. "She's asleep." Harry said to Molly and Arthur.
"Then it's time I think it best that we go home. Ron and Hermione were watching everything."
" Yeah we are beat. Tonight has been one hell of a night." Sirius said rubbing his hand through his hair.
Arthur nodded. " If ANYTHING happens Floo us immediately." Arthur said. Harry nodded. Arthur lead molly to the fire place and he yelled "THE FLAT!" She soon followed.
-
"She escaped!" The Dark Lord's voice Roared. " First Dumbledore, Now Ginny really Malfoy you are definitely starting no - really are disappointing me. I am starting to question weather or not you belong here." Voldemort hissed.
"Master, I don't know how she did it. She just shouted…" Draco started whining. "I know what she did!" He yelled. " You will just have to get in with the Order and lure them here to the Mansion." Voldemort said. Lucius looked at him. Narcissa was nowhere to be found.
Draco nodded. "I am sorry My Lord. I shall not fail you."
Lucius sneered at his son. " You are no son of mine Draco you should rethink your priorities." Lucius said.
Draco bowed and left the room. He ran up to his room. Pansy was up waiting for him. " Draco baby, I am so sorry things didn't turn out the way you wanted." She said comforting him. Draco gave a heavy sigh and sat upon the bed next to her. He placed an effective silencing charm upon the room. But before he did a house elf popped in.
"What would Master and the Misses like for dinner this evening?" The tiny elf named Dolly asked.
"It's up to you dear." Draco said to Pansy.
"Um, how about some Seasoned Crab tonight Dolly please." She said kindly to the elf.
" I don't know love, I couldn't rape her. I feel so bloody terrible for what I did and how It has to be." He sighed. "I mean, the fear in her eyes..."
"Sh, it's over now honey. We will get through this. We can just go over there and pretend that it wasn't you. Tell them Wormtail used Polly juice potion and knocked you out or something, that's believable right?" She asked. Her once short black hair was now long and beautiful. She looked like a dark angel.
Draco smiled at her. " I love you." He said kissing her passionately. There was so much love in their hearts.
"Lets just do what we have to do to be happy and get out of our parents ways. Then we can move somewhere far away where we can be together." Pansy whispered in his ear.
Draco smiled. " I like that idea." They made love that night.
-
Ginny woke up five minutes later. Hot white pain shot up from her leg. "Harry!" She cried.
Harry woke up in a second. He was sleeping next to her bed on the floor. " What is it baby?" He asked.
"It hurts!" She cried holding her stomach.
"Mum said it would hurt really bad for the next few days and there was nothing that could be done about it." She cried. Harry held her as she shook. Splinching was dangerous to one's insides. Harry remembered Molly telling Ginny.
Ginny's insides had been bruised and cut up badly. Molly gave them a potion and a spell that was supposed to heal them, but that was going to take a few days at the least. The most a full week to completely recover. Longer from her experiences with Malfoy.
Harry held her for a long time that night. She finally fell asleep in his arms as she was leaning against him while he was massaging her back lightly. He fell asleep to for a short while then the pain came again. It came in short spurts and it was comparable to contractions when you are in labor.
The next morning was better. Together Harry and Ginny stayed in bed. Ginny did not want to move from where Harry was holding her. Harry was up for the rest of last night; he had only gotten about two hours worth of sleep. Percy came by to check upon Ginny. She talked to him a while about what happened leading him to slam his fist against the glass making it break and his hand bleed. Molly and Arthur and Minerva came to visit as well. Nobody stayed that long for because Ginny got tired very fast.
" I don't know what to do about this kidnapping Minerva." Arthur said downstairs. The group was having lunch in the kitchen. Sirius had made roast beef sandwiches. " I can't execute anyone because there is no one identifiable to blame." Arthur said frustrated. " Part of me wants to take her away from Harry because I know he is half of the reason for all of this. However, I know that is not right. I am just being the father." Arthur said sighing.
Sirius looked at him. " We can't do anything except to fight Arthur, you know that." he said sadly. A week passed through and Ginny had almost completely healed. The week was quiet.
Ron and Hermione had been together, an awful lot. Harry started to wonder what was going on. " Harry can I see you for a minute in private mate?" Ron asked. Harry nodded.
Together they decided to walk outside the back yard and sat on a bench next to the apple tree. "Mate I am going to ask Hermione's parents for their permission to marry her. I want you to be my best man." Ron said.
Harry blinked twice and smiled. " Ron that's great!" Harry said hugging him.
Ron wiped his forehead. "Whew. I thought you would be angry with me for doing it at a time like this." Ron said.
"Why would I ever be angry with you for doing something like this." Harry asked confused.
"It's just under the circumstances with what has been going on you know. That kind of thing." Ron said.
"Ron your going to be happy with Hermione!" Harry said clamping him on the back. " At least she will keep you on your toes." He joked.
Ron glared at him. " Ok well, that's settled then. I am going over to the Granger's for dinner tonight alone. I'm so nervous." Ron said. " Oh and I wanted to show you the engagement ring." He pulled a tiny velvet black box out of his pocket. Inside was a beautiful perfectly round cut diamond.
"Oh wow Ron that is great. She will love it." Harry said.
"It's simple, and incredibly beautiful. Just like Hermione." Ron said. Harry smirked.
Together the boys walked back inside the house where Ginny and Hermione were eating. "Hermione you just had lunch an hour ago and your eating again?" Ron asked confused.
"You eat just as much Ron." Ginny said annoyed. She was sitting at the table reading a magazine.
"Yeah but it's not like you to eat so much Hermione. Plus you face looks unusually flushed." He added. Hermione looked at everyone. Sirius glance at Ron and then at Hermione with a " I know what it is" look.
"I just don't feel very well." Hermione concluded. She finished her plate then went into her room and took a nap.
"Why are you smiling so much Harry?" Ginny asked almost giggling. Harry looked at Ron who mentally told him " If you tell her I will hex you."
" I cant tell you, but you will know soon enough. Ron's got a 'surprise' for Hermione." Harry said.
Ginny looked up at Ron. "You've got to be kidding me!" She squealed. Ron looked shocked. "Are you going to. You know!" Ginny asked as the pitch of her voice rose ten times higher. Ron smiled and nodded.
"You prat!" Ginny squealed happily. She gave Harry a huge hug then went over and hugged her brother tightly. "Oh I always knew we would be sisters one day." Ginny giggled to herself. "Now I get to be the Maid of Honor!" She squealed to herself. Laughing Sirius and Harry sat down and joined Ginny. Ron went to go check on Hermione.
"Baby what's wrong?" He asked sitting on the edge of her bed.
There were tears of joy springing down her cheeks. For some reason she was glowing a haze of blue encircled her. "Ron…I am pregnant!" She whispered.
Ron choked. A big smile came crossed his face. " For real?" He asked.
Hermione laughed. " Yes for real!" She said. Ron sat her up.
"Then it's definitely high time I tell you, Hermione, ever since I first saw you I fell in love with you. Marry me? Make me the luckiest man on the face of the planet? I swear I'll be good to you I promise with all my heart." He said on his knees.
Tears were now flowing like a river down Hermione's cheeks. Her long curls wee getting damp. Her brown eyes were shining like stars in the night sky. " Oh Ron, Yes!" She said hugging him tightly.
"Good, then you can wear this." He said pulling out the beautiful engagement ring.
Hermione gasped. "Oh Ron!" She cried.
He slid the ring onto her finger. Love was definitely in the air. "I have a meeting with you father tonight, I was going to ask him for his permission earlier, but now is a good time and I want you to come with me so we can tell everyone the great news." Ron said.
Hermione nodded. She ran down the stairs and Ginny threw her arms around her best friend. " OH HERMIONE WERE GOING TO BE SISTERS!" Ginny screeched. Everyone was so excited. "Also guess what! You and Harry are going to be Godparents!" Hermione squealed, "I'm Pregnant!"
Ginny stopped. Harry gasped. Sirius's jaw dropped. Hedwig hooted happily. Harry put his hand around Ginny's waist. She started crying hysterically. Everyone was definitely in high spirits. Hermione and Ron left later that night to go see Hermione's parents.
"Ron it's going to be fine." Hermione reassured her fiancée by squeezing his hand. She took the engagement ring off and placed it back in the box. Ron was quiet. He was so nervous. He twiddled his hands until Hermione grabbed one. They stepped into the front entry way of the Granger's two story house on Maple Ave. Hermione knocked on the door. The house looked warm and welcoming from the street.
"Hermione! Ron!" Hermione's mother and father welcomed them. " Please come in dears." Hermione's mother Hannah said. They held hands. " Hermione you look wonderful! Have you done something with your hair?" Hannah asked her daughter. "Not necessarily." Hermione said nervously.
She was getting nervous now. The four of them sat down for an hour or so before dinner started and chatted about everything that was going on. Hermione informed them of everything that had been happening. " Well, you kids have been through more than your mother and I ever when we were growing up." Hermione's father William said. They nodded.
"Mr. Granger, um, may I have a word with you outside?" Ron asked.
"Sure Son." William said warmly and the two of them walked into the kitchen.
"So dear, tell me, when are you due?" Hannah asked Hermione.
Hermione gasped. "Mother! What are you talking about?" Hermione tried to hide it.
"Dear please, your face is flushed your glowing, seriously." Hannah said with a wave of her hand. Hermione looked just like her mother, with big brown eyes and long brown hair, except for Hannah's was straight and wavy instead of Curly like Hermione's.
"I'm due in June." Hermione said happily. "Does Ron know?" Hannah asked excitedly. "Of course." Hermione said. "He's really excited." she added. "That's wonderful dear, oh my we have so much planning to do now." The girls turned to see Ron and William laughing at something.
" Congratulations Hermione!" Her dad said twirling her around and hugging her. Hermione smiled.
Ron got down on his knee again and slipped the ring on her finger once more and asked.. " Hermione Jane Granger, will you do me the honor of being my wife forever?" Ron asked sweetly batting his eyes.
Hermione laughed ( he looks just like the twins) she thought. "Yes Ron! I will." She said hugging him as he slipped the wedding ring on her finer once more.
"Daddy, we also have some important news to tell you besides this." Hermione said smiling. " Were going to have a baby." She said. Ron's eyes widened. He was getting ready for the hit. William was going to shoot him.
"Fabulous!" William said. Ron breathed heavily. "Good Man Ron!" He slapped Ron on the back and hugged Hermione tightly.
" Well it's getting late and we have to go home." Hermione said to Ron after a few hours of laughing and crying. Hannah was calling everyone in the Granger family telling them of the news. They kissed and hugged each other goodbye. Hermione and Ron walked out of the house and Ron wrapped his arm's around her.
"You are beautiful you know that? I love you so much." He said kissing her. "Thank you for marrying me." He said.
"My Pleasure." Hermione replied kissing him back.
