After work, Hermione went home. She had about 5 minutes to freshen up before she Flooed over to the burrow to pick up Bonnie.
"Mommy!" Squealed a little girl who ran over to Hermione. She smiled at the greeting.
"Hey baby! Did you have a good time at grandmas?" Hermione asked her daughter.
"Oh yes. I drew a picture of a bunny and then grandma took me swimming, and we just made cookies. Do you want one mom? Bonnie asked excitedly.
"Sure! That sounds great." Hermione said.
Bonnie jumped down from her mothers arms and ran into the kitchen to get the cookies.
"You're pregnant aren't you?" Mrs. Weasley said accusingly.
Hermione jumped. She hadn't seen her standing there. Then it registered what Mrs.Weasley had said and Hermione paled. "What? But how did you know?"
"When you have seven kids, it's easy to see the signs. Look at you, you're glowing. Besides, you patted you tummy just now." Mrs.Weasley said with a smirk on her face.
Hermione sighed. "Yes I am pregnant."
"Oh I knew it!" Molly said hugging Hermione. "Another grand baby! Oh, I'm so excited! When did you find out? How far along are you? Does Ronald know?"
Hermione smiled at Mrs.Weasley's excitement. "I just found out today. I was feeling sick so I went to a healer before work to find out what was wrong. He said I was about a month along. I haven't had a chance to tell Ron."
"So are you going to tell him tonight?"
"Yeah, probably after dinner."
"That's wonderful dear!" Mrs.Weasley smiled, hugging Hermione again.
"I would have preferred if it was at a later time. You know, with Ron just starting his training and I just started my job." Hermione told Molly with a sad look on her face.
"You both will do fine. Besides, you always have Arthur and me to watch the kids." Mrs. Weasley reassured her.
"Yes, and i can't thank you enough for watching Bonnie. She just loves coming here and visiting with you, and her uncles and aunt."
"We're happy to have her!"
At that moment, Bonnie came in the room with a plate of cookies in one hand and a glass of milk in the other.
"Here you are mommy." Bonnie said, putting the plate and the glass down on the coffee table.
"Thanks honey. Only one cookie though. We don't want to spoil our appetites now do we?" Hermione asked.
"No mommy." Bonnie said.
After they were done with their cookies Hermione stood up.
"Well, we best be off. I have to do some laundry and get supper ready. Ron will be home soon anyways. Thanks again for watching Bonnie." Hermione said.
"You are very welcome. I'm glad to do it anytime hun." Mrs. Weasley said hugging her.
"Thanks. I will bring Bonnie by on Monday." Hermione said.
"We look forward to seeing her."
"Thanks again Mom." Hermione said with a smile.
"Don't mention it. It's my pleasure. Now be careful have a nice night."
"Bye grandma." Bonnie called.
"Bye honey. I'll see you on Monday" Molly said, giving her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Grandma loves you!"
"I Love you too!" Bonnie said, kissing her on the cheek.
Once they got home Hermione put the pot roast in the oven. This was one of Ron's favorite dishes. Bonnie went into the living room to play with her toys. Hermione didn't mind her playing in the living room because Bonnie always picked up after herself and Hermione could watch Bonnie from the kitchen.
After washing a few dishes and setting the table for dinner, Hermione started some laundry. Around seven, the clock showed that Ron was on his way home. Mrs. Weasley had made sure that Hermione got a special Weasley clock of her own. Mrs. Weasley had also added Hermione and Bonnie to her own clock
"Hey everyone! I'm home." Ron said with a sigh.
"Daddy!" Bonnie giggled as she ran up to him and jumped into his open arms.
"Hey baby, did you have a nice time at grandma's today?" Ron asked hugging her and putting her back on the ground
"Yes tons of fun."
"Wow! Tons? That's a lot of fun." Ron said, smiling down admiringly at his little girl.
"Yeah it was."
"Hey, how was your day?" Ron asked his wife, putting his arms around her waist and gently kissing her neck.
"It was fine. I had lunch with your sister. We had a nice long chat about a few things." Hermione said, her voice a bit muffled from nuzzling Ron's neck.
"Oh really. How is she?" Ron asked.
"She's good. The store is doing great. She really loves it there. Her and Harry are fine as well."
"That's good. So, what's for dinner, it smells great."
"Pot Roast." Hermione said, awaiting her husband's reaction.
"I knew it!" Ron said punching the air like a child.
Hermione laughed at him "Bonnie go wash up. Dinner is ready"
"Okay Mommy." Bonnie said, getting up and going to the restroom to wash up.
"You too." Hermione told Ron who had not moved from their embrace.
"Yes ma'am!" Ron said saluting her and giving her neck another light peck. He headed upstairs to change and wash for dinner.
Hermione sighed. She couldn't believe how nervous she was. Her heart was pounding a million miles an hour. Hermione set the table, reminding herself that Ron would love her no matter what, and he would be happy… or at least she hoped he would be.
Dinner was pretty uneventful. Bonnie made sure that her parents knew everything that she did at her grandmothers' house in full detail. After supper Ron, did the dishes while Hermione and Bonnie set up a movie for them to watch.
Every night, the Weasleys would do a family activity. Sometimes they would play games, while other times they read stories out loud to each other. And sometimes they just sat around and talked to each other. Tonight was movie night. Bonnie was really excited about it. She had been waiting to see the new movie, Finding Nemo, for a long time.
The movie was a perfect family movie. It was funny and entertaining but before the movie ended, Bonnie had fallen asleep. Ron smiled at his daughter. Everyday he thanked his lucky stars to have such a wonderful family.
"Want me to put her to bed?" Hermione asked
"No, I got it." Ron said, picking his daughter up and carrying her to her bed.
Hermione took a deep breath. As soon as he came back she would tell him. She tidied the room up a little bit then sat back down, fidgeting and moving anything within arms reach. Ron came down a few minutes later and sat next to her. Pulling her next to his side, he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her cheek.
"Ron?" Hermione asked, her voice an octave higher then usual.
"Mmmmm?" Ron acknowledged with a mumble into Hermione's neck/
"I have something important to tell you." Hermione said.
Ron pulled away from her. He hoped nothing was wrong. He turned and looked at her with concerned eyes.
"Is there anything wrong?" Ron asked, worried.
"Oh no, nothings wrong." Hermione said.
"Well then what is it? You went to the healers today, right? What did he say? Why have you been so sick lately?" Ron asked.
"Well I did go and see the healers today. Nothing is wrong though. Well the reason I have been so sick is because... Um…"
"You can tell me Hermione."
"Well um… you see… I... what I mean to say is…Oh Ron, I'm pregnant" Hermione finally blurted out. She looked down at her hands for a moment before looking up at Ron. He looked absolutely shocked.
"P…preg…pregnant?" He muttered, looking at Hermione for confirmation.
Hermione looked at him and nodded, hoping he would say something else. Anything, instead of sitting there with a shocked look on his face. Then Ron started to smile.
"That's great news!" Ron said, picking up his wife and twirling her around a few times.
Hermione laughed and hugged him. He looked down at her and kissed her.
"Another baby! I can't believe it!" Ron said. He couldn't wipe the grin off his face.
"Neither can I!" Hermione said sitting down.
"So who have you told?" Ron asked sitting next to her and pulling her onto his lap.
"Well I told you sister when we went out to lunch. Then when I picked up Bonnie your mom knew instantly. It was kind of freaky actually." Hermione said laughing.
"Yeah I guess having all those children makes it easy to tell the signs." Ron said after a moment.
Hermione stared at Ron for a minute. "Your mother said the exact same thing" He smiled at her. "I am worried though." she continued. "It's hard already with Bonnie. Another baby will just make it harder." Hermione said.
"I know, but we've made it this far. We'll manage." Ron said kissing her neck once more.
"I know we will" Hermione smiled.
"What are you hoping for? Another girl? Or perhaps a son?" Ron asked.
"Another girl would be nice. A son would be great also." Hermione said truthfully.
"I love you so much." Ron said.
"And I love you." Hermione said.
"Ready to go to bed mommy?" Ron asked.
"Sure am daddy!"
Hermione was relieved. Ron was so happy about having another kid. She almost laughed at herself for being so silly. Of course Ron would be happy. He lived in a large family. Hermione wondered if she would want a large family. She had been an only child before she got lost on that island. Then it was only the two of them. She thought for a moment before coming to s decision. A big family sounded like a great idea.
