Chapter 7
Hermione Weasley was in her room waiting patiently for the mid-witch. Today was the day of her monthly check-up and also happened to be the day they would find out the sex of the baby.
"Where is Ronald?" Hermione thought out loud.
Crack
"Hello Mrs. Weasley. How are we feeling today?" The mid-witch asked her as she apparated into the room.
"Well as good as it's going to get considering I feel like I've been run over by a steamroller…twice." Hermione said with a faint smile.
"I brought a potion that will take care of that."
"Thank you."
"No problem." she said with a smile. "Now, Mrs. Weasley if you would please lie down. I will perform the routine spell, and see how you're doing."
Hermione lay down and got comfortable, while the mid-witch took out her wand.
"Pregantomis!" The mid-witch said pointing her wand at Hermione's stomach. Almost instantly, a light came on from inside Hermione, showing a baby growing inside.
"Your baby is doing wonderfully, Mrs. Weasley. I would say to drink more milk now since the baby's bones are starting to form. Would you like to know the sex?" The mid-witch asked.
Hermione thought for a minute. "Yes." she answered
"Well, I believe congratulations are in order. Mrs. Weasley, you are having a little boy!" She said shaking Hermione's hand.
"Thank you." Hermione said, getting a little emotional.0
"Well that's all for today Mrs. Weasley. I hope you have a good day." The mid-witch said. A moment later she had apparated away with a crack.
Hermione sat up and composed herself. She was so happy that everything was going great with the baby. A little boy would be a nice addition to the family. Hermione took a deep breath. She was still angry with Ron for missing this.
'Where is he?' She thought angrily. 'How dare he miss this?'
Ron's P.O.V.
Ron and Harry sat at the restaurant eating lunch and talking.
"Then she came up behind me thinking I didn't see her, and I turn around and disarmed her." Harry said.
"I still don't get why we still have these death eaters. I mean, you defeated Voldemort years ago." Ron said.
"I guess some still think that he will rise again. Everyone thought he was dead before, but then thirteen years later he was back again." Harry replied.
"Yeah but this time he's defiantly not coming back right?" Ron asked a little worriedly.
"Well unless he had more horcuxes that I didn't defeat then there is no way that he is coming back. Besides, my scar has been gone for years." Harry said, compulsively brushing his hand over the place where his lightning bolt-shaped scar had once been.
"True. Wasn't that like link between you and him or something?" Ron asked. The whole scar thing still confused the bejesus out of him.
"Unfortunately." Harry said shaking his head.
"Thanks for coming. Here's your bill. Have a nice day and come back soon." The waitress said quickly as she passed their table.
"I've got it." Ron said.
"No I wouldn't dream of it. You have a family." Harry said.
"Harry honestly I can pay for it." Ron said.
"Fine if you insist. But I get the next one." Harry said grinning.
Ron looked at the bill to sign it. He paused when his eyes scanned the date. October 5, 2005.
" That can't be the right date…" Ron thought to himself.
"Harry, what's today's date?" Ron asked, a slight note of panic in his voice.
"The 5th. Why? Everything alright?" Harry asked.
"Oh bloody hell. Hermione is going to kill me. Today was the monthly pregnancy check up. I forgot all about it!" Ron said signing the bill. "Sorry Harry, I've gotta go." He stood up quickly and started for the door.
"Do you want to be buried or cremated?" Harry called after him with a devilish smirk.
Ron turned around and smirked back at Harry and apparated home.
"Hermione, are you home?" Ron called.
Hermione walked in. Ron looked at her apologetically. Her could tell by her face that she was not happy. She looked back at him and gave him the worst look she could make. Ron shivered at her glare. He knew that she was pissed.
"Geeze...if looks could kill." Ron joked and laughed nervously. He stopped almost immediately and apologized. "Hermione I am so sorry I forgot." Ron said. He walked over to her, and tried to put his arms around her but Hermione just pushed him off.
"If you value your life you won't talk to me right now. Go back to work and leave me alone. I can't even look at you right now. How could you Ron? This is our son!" Hermione yelled.
"We have a Son?" Ron asked quietly.
"Yes. Now get out before I do something I will regret." Hermione spat.
Ron looked at her apologetically.
"Alright I am going. I will talk to you later when you've cooled down." Ron said sadly.
He went to kiss her cheek, but she just moved away from him. Ron sighed in defeat and apparated back to work. He knew he would have to find a really great way to make it up to her.
" We are having a Son." Ron thought.
Even though he knew he was in a lot of trouble with Hermione, he still smiled at the thought of having a son. Someone he could teach guy stuff to. Bonnie was great and he loved her with all his heart, but she was very girly and hated doing 'guy' things. Especially flying. Oh well, like mother like daughter.
Well how did you like it? Review.
