Chapter 4

Half an hour later there were two 'pops' & Ginny & Harry walked into the kitchen carrying their twins, "Hey guys, hey April," said Harry & Ginny as they put down the twins next to April & sat down next to Ron. "Hey, how are you?" asked Hermione, "Good," replied Harry. Not long before Hermione had April, Ginny had given birth to twins; a boy named Matt, who had jet black hair & a girl named Rachel who had black hair also & had the same features as her brother. "Hwarry! Gwinny!" April yelled running over to Ginny & gave her a hug, then ran to Harry & gave him a hug, then ran off to play with Matt & Rachel. "Want some pizza?" Hermione asked taking the pizzas out of the oven.

After dinner, Harry & Ron were in the lounge room talking, while the kids played with April's toys & Hermione & Ginny were washing up in the kitchen.

"She sounds like a flirtatious scarlet women to me," Ginny stated after Hermione had told her about Nicolette, (or as Ginny had so creatively re-named her: Nic-hore-lette!) Hermione nodded, "Next time I won't be so forgiving towards Ron," as Ginny place the last of the dishes away, she turned back to Hermione, "Watch your back, ok? Ron's not one to cheat, but he's a sucker for pretty girls," Ginny warned, Hermione nodded, "Will do," she said, as she & Ginny headed into the lounge room & joined Ron & Harry in their conversation on quidditch.

"Marmee! I'm twired," April yawned, tugging on Hermione's leg at 9pm. "Oh, sorry honey, I didn't realize how late it was," said Hermione, looking at the clock. "Nine o'clock already? C'mon Harry, we have to go take the twins home & into bed. Bye, thanks for dinner Hermione," Ginny said, as everyone bid each other goodbye & with two 'pops' they were gone.

"C'mon, I'll take you to bed," Hermione said softly, as she left the room to put April to bed. Ron made his way to his & Hermione's bedroom, where he instantly fell asleep.

The next morning Ron woke to the sound of Hermione coughing & sneezing. He rolled over & saw Hermione sitting up, holding a tissue. "Aw Babe, are you ok?" Ron asked sitting up. Hermione glared at him, "Do I look ok?" she asked, sneezing yet again & taking another tissue. Ron smiled, "Well ah, no, but I'm trying to be concerned here! I know what you need! A 24hr servant, I'm at your command," Ron said bowing his head, "First off, nice hot chicken noodle soup," said Ron jumping out of bed & running to the kitchen to make the soup.

Ron walked carefully back to the bedroom holding a tray, with chicken noodle soup & a rose on it. When he entered he was not surprised to find Hermione, reading a book & holding a bunch of tissues. "Breakfast!" Ron grinned as he placed the tray on Hermione's lap & put her book on the bedside table. Hermione smiled & said, "Thanks" & began to eat.

Once she'd finished eating, April 'ran' into the room 'singing'. Hermione put her head under the blankets. Ron grinned at April, "Morning princess, why are you yelling so early in the morning?" he asked as April climbed on her parent's bed & pouted. "I was singing, Da! Dwon't I haf a fabyolus voice?" she asked grinning at her father. Ron nodded & could've sworn he heard Hermione mumble something like, "Yer great voice, save it for the opera," before she sneezed. "Marmee! Gwet upsie! You pwomised to twake me to da party!" April yelled, tugging at the blankets that Hermione held over her head. Hermione groaned & poked her head out for under the blankets. "Honey, I'm sick, but Daddy can take you," Hermione croaked before beggining a coughing fit, it was now Ron's turn to glare. April hugged her dad, "Fwanks Da! C'mon, I need to get rweady," she giggled happily, as Ron got off the bed, "What's she gonna wear?" Ron asked, "It's already laid out on the chair," sniffled Hermione, yet again sneezing & throwing the covers over her head.

"Alright," Ron muttered as he scooped up a giggling April & took her out to the kitchen where her outfit was neatly folded on the chair. "What should we have for breakfast?" Ron asked, as he & April looked through the cupboards. "Apple mush!" April squealed, as she took at jar of baby food out of the cupboard & sat on the floor. Ron grinned, "You can have apple mush, but I will have… coco pops," said Ron putting the coco pops & milk on then bench, then putting April in her high chair & taking the lid off the apple mush & giving her a spoon.

After they'd finished breakfast & cleaned up, Ron changed April & dressed her. She looked gorgeous; she was wearing a pleated denim skirt & a blue shirt that matched her eyes. When they were about to leave, Hermione came out of her room & handed Ron a wrapped gift. "This is for Ruby, that's the name of the birthday kid, ok?" Ron nodded & kissed Hermione on the cheek, "Get better, ok?" Hermione nodded, "Have fun honey," she said April & Ron left for the party.

When they arrived, they were greeted at the door by none other than…
