As Elian, Harry, Ginny and the kids entered the restaurant, Harry pulled Elian aside. "What's up, Harry?" she asked, concern in her eyes. Harry sighed heavily and pulled her into a tight hug. "Um, this is nice and all, but your suffocating me…" Harry quickly released her.
"Sorry. You know that Draco and I took Kat to have DNA test, to find out if it's his child…" Harry started, Elian nodded. "Well, the test confirmed… that she is not carrying Draco's baby." Elian sighed heavily in relief. "Before I left, he wanted me to ask if you'd take him back…" Elian nodded.
"Yes, I'll take him back… but only for Charlotte and Aron… I might never forgive him for what he's done, but I do still love him." Elian whispered softly, a slight smile crossed Harry's face. "But for right now, it's only for my children. Be sure to tell him that, Harry, be sure of that." Elian then walked past her brother and into the restaurant.
"Mommy, what were you and Uncle Harry talking about?" Charlotte asked upon seeing her mother and uncle at the table. "Oh, and Aunt Ginny already ordered for everybody." Elian bent down and hugged her daughter tightly.
"We were just talking about grown-up stuff. Nothing you need to be worried about, Charlotte." she said softly. "Gin, would it be at all possible if you could keep Charlotte and Aron tonight?" she asked looking over at her sister-in-law, who nodded in agreement.
"We'd be happy to keep them. Right, Harry?" Ginny replied looking at her husband. "Well, regardless of what you think, we're keeping them." Harry sighed, nodded and then sat down next to Ginny, Elian then sat down between her children.
"Thanks, I have a feeling that something's going to happen tonight and I would fell better knowing you had the kids…" Elian said as the waiter brought their food over to them. "Ginny, you ordered me chicken fried steak. How'd you know that's my favorite?" Ginny shrugged and smiled slightly.
Aron started giggling and poking at his mother's food. "Goo… gooey!" he said innocent laughter still in his voice. Elian smiled and kissed his forehead.
'How could Draco ever possibly want more than this?' she asked herself, cutting her steak into small pieces. "Oh, Harry, when are you and Gin going to give me a little niece or nephew?" Elian asked randomly, causing both her brother and his wife to blush furiously. "Jeez, you don't have to be embarrassed! I'm just curious, you two got married about a year after Draco and me." Harry then started coughing.
"Well, um, now that you mention it…. Harry, I have something to tell you." Ginny started, still blushing furiously. Harry quickly looked over at her. "I found out while you were out and before Elian came over…. I'm about two weeks pregnant." Harry jumped up quickly, knocking down his chair in the process.
"Gin, you've just made me the happiest man in the world!" Harry said, pulling Ginny from her seat and into his arms, then kissed her passionately on the lips. Elian cleared her throat slightly.
"Not in front of the children, please." she said as Charlotte started giggling, Elian shook her head and slowly stood up. "Ginny, Harry, I'm so happy for you guys! You have no idea." Elian then walked over to her brother and Ginny and pulled them both into a tight hug.
