On Saturday morning, Ginny Apparated into the kitchen in The Burrow where her father, George, Ron and Hermione were having breakfast.

"Hi!" Ginny said, grabbing a piece of George's toast as she passed him.

"Oi!" George exclaimed, trying to grab it back. Ginny pulled it out of his reach and shoved it all into her mouth quickly.

"Very attractive," George muttered before Summoning a stack of toast from the counter.

"What's up, Ginny?" Ron asked, sipping coffee.

"Not much. I just came to get Hermione. We're going to spend all day planning the wedding."

"Already?" Mr Weasley asked.

"Why does everyone keep saying that!" Ginny said, exasperatingly. "We're getting married at Montgomery Hall and there's no predicting when it will be free. So we have to start planning now!"

"Ginny, I'm so sorry!" Hermione said, refilling her cup of tea. "I completely forgot about today! Me and Ron are going to spend all day moving our stuff into the new flat."

"Oh," Ginny sighed, pouring herself some apple juice. "That's alright. I'll figure something out."

"Arthur!" a shrill voice suddenly called from upstairs.

"Coming Molly, dear!" Mr Weasley quickly rushed out of the room, abandoning his bacon and toast. Just then, there was a loud crack and Lavender suddenly materialized in front of Ginny and Ron. She was wearing a thick black coat, but you could still see the telltale bump of her six month stage pregnancy.

"Hi guys!" she said.

"Why do you smell like olives?" Ginny asked as got herself an apple and a pear from the fruit bowl.

"Because I have to use this olive bubble bath stuff now. It's supposed to be good for the baby. Being pregnant is fun sometimes, but I kind of miss being able to see past my stomach properly." It seemed that Lavender had suddenly become dissatisfied with her apple and pear so she pinched one of George's pieces of toast. George, for the second time that morning, attempted to make a grab at it, but Lavender stopped him.

"George!" she shrieked. "Please don't manhandle me! I am with child!" George rolled his eyes.

"Fine!" he said, tiresomely. "I'll just make some pancakes then, seeing as the world evidently doesn't want me to have toast!"

"Oh good!" Lavender exclaimed, chewing toast haphazardly. "Could you please fry some sausages while you're doing that? I'm for two!" she added when George glared at her.

Suddenly, Ginny got a fantastic idea.

"Ron," she said, slowly. "Dad doesn't know that Lavender's pregnant, does he?"

"I don't think so," Ron replied. "Why?"

"Lavender," Ginny said, excitedly. "Dad is obviously going to comment on your pregnancy somehow when he comes back. When he does, pretend you're not pregnant. It will be so funny!"

Lavender laughed. "That sounds like fun!"

"Cool!" Ginny replied. "Whenever he says something, just pretend to be all insulted." Right on cue, Mr Weasley came back into the room and turned back to his toast and coffee. As he did so, he suddenly noticed Lavender.

"Hello dear" he said, jauntily.

"Morning, Mr Weasley!" Lavender replied.

"How've you been getting on? You know, I heard that you and Seamus had gotten married but I had no idea you were pregnant!"

Lavender suddenly stopped smiling. "What?" she asked, quietly. Ginny had to bite the sides of her cheeks to stop herself from laughing.

"What do you mean pregnant?" Lavender demanded. Mr Weasley now stopped smiling and looked horrified.

"Oh!" he said. "Oh dear! Are you not...Oh well! My mistake! It's just that you looked...errm...I mean I thought you were..ermm.."

"Only joking, Mr Weasley!" Lavender suddenly burst out. "I'm six months pregnant! In fact, Seamus and I are going to an ultrasound at two o' clock this afternoon." Mr Weasley breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry, Dad," Ginny said, shaking with laughter. "It was just such a funny idea!"

"You girls!" Mr Weasley said. Hermione and Ron stood up quickly.

"Ginny," Hermione said, apologetically. "We have to go to the flat now."

"That's fine," Ginny said. "I'm going to go home in a bit anyway." Hermione gave one last apologetic smile, Summoned two large suitcases from upstairs and she and Ron Apparated.

"Where's Harry?" Lavender asked Ginny, pouring a strange herbal tea into some hot water that Mr Weasley had just given her before departing with George.

"He's gone to Ted and Andromeda's house. Their going to Belgium this afternoon, so Harry and I are going to be looking after Teddy for a week."

"Oh, that's good. So you and Harry can practice being parents."

"I suppose. Are you nervous about the baby?"

"A bit. But I'm mostly excited. What I'm really nervous about is what we're going to call the baby. Seamus wants to call it Aoife if it's a girl."

"Aoife Finnegan?" Ginny asked, wrinkling her nose.

"I know," Lavender replied.

"What if it's a boy?"

"He wants to call it Patrick if it's a boy."

"That's not too bad. What names do you want?"

"I don't know. I've been thinking about some. I like the name Virginia for a girl. And I like James for a boy. Anna. Luke. Tom. Katy. Sophie."

"What about Lydia? That's a pretty name.. "

"I like it too. But Lydia Finnegan? I don't think so. I've always loved the name Sophia for a girl though."

"Yeah, that's nice."

"Anyway, enough about names. What are you planning to do today?"

"Well, I wanted to get lots of wedding planning done with Hermione. But she needs to go and finish setting up the flat with Ron. They're nearly finished. They spent all yesterday cleaning and painting."

"Oh. Well, I could help you with the wedding plans of you want."

"Really? Are you sure it wouldn't tire you out or anything?"

"No, it'll be fine. It'll give me something to do; being pregnant is so boring sometimes. But I have to leave at about two for my ultrasound with Seamus. So, let's start now. Only, let's get some ice cream from Hogsmeade first. I've been craving vanilla ice cream all day!"

While Ginny and Lavender spent all day making wedding plans, Ron and Hermione inspected their new home, making sure that the electricity and plumbing was working. Hermione returned from the bathroom as Ron finished inspecting the corridor.

"OK," she said. "There is no mould, algae or fungi whatsoever growing on the walls or the floor in the bathroom."

"I thought you were checking to see if the taps were working," Ron asked, looking bemused.

"I was. But you never know what you can find in the bathrooms in flats these days."

"O..K. What time is it?"

"Five past two."

"Really? We missed lunch! Wow, I think that's the first time I've ever missed a meal!" Hermione laughed.

"Why doesn't that surprise me?" she asked. "What do you want to eat. I went food shopping earlier, so we have everything." Hermione and Ron rummaged in their fridge and cupboards for about ten minutes and eventually decided on potato and leek soup with bread and cheese. Just as they were tucking in, there was a loud crack.

"Seamus!" Hermione exclaimed. "How did you know our address?"

"Harry told me," Seamus replied. "I just came from Grimmauld Place. He and Teddy were playing chess."

"Aw!" Hermione said, breaking off a piece of her bread and dipping it into her soup.

"Anyway," Seamus continued. "Have you two seen Lavender anywhere?"

"The last time we saw her was this morning at The Burrow," Ron replied. "Why?"

"We're supposed to have an ultrasound at two and she's late! I've been looking for her for the past half an hour! I checked The Burrow, Grimmauld Place, Diagon Alley and Portobello Road. I even checked St Mungo's to see if she was waiting for me there. But she isn't! I hope she's alright."

"Didn't you two arrange to meet somewhere?" Hermione asked.

"We agreed to meet at home at quarter to two. I waited till ten past two and she didn't show up."

"Did you look in Hogsmeade?" Ron asked. Seamus paused.

"No," he answered slowly. "No, I didn't. How could I have thought of Portobello Road and not Hogsmeade. I'm such a tool!" And with that, he grabbed a huge chunk of bread, cut off a piece of cheese and Disapparated.

"What a bloody cheek!" Ron said.

Meanwhile, back at Grimmauld Place, Teddy and Harry were having a fry-up for their late lunch. Harry was still puzzled at how a four year old had managed to beat him in chess twice in a row. Oh well. He'd play Exploding Snap with him later. He was sure to win that. As him and Teddy were discussing The Chudley Cannon's latest match, Ginny Disapparated into their kitchen holding the wedding book.

"Hi!" she said, giving Harry a kiss before collapsing into the chair next to him. "Hi Teddy!" she added, suddenly noticing the auburn-haired boy sitting in front of her with egg yolk all over his face. Teddy grinned and waved at her.

"Where have you been?" Harry asked, polishing off the last of his scrambled eggs.

"Lavender and I were getting some wedding plans done in Hogsmeade. We got so carried away that Lavender forgot all about her ultrasound. Seamus came bursting into the cafe we were having lunch in looking for Lavender. We felt really bad actually; he looked really worried. He and Lavender just left for St Mungo's now. They asked if we wanted to meet up for a drink in The Elder Wand later on in the evening. Do you want to?"

"Yeah, sure. But we'll have to bring Teddy."

"That's fine. Ron, Hermione and Neville are coming as well. Hannah can't come though, she's gone to Vancouver to visit some friends for a few days."

"OK. So what did you come up with for the wedding?" Just as Ginny opened the book to show him, a great big macaw flew through their kitchen window and landed on the table, a roll of parchment attached to it's leg. The macaw hopped towards Ginny and held out it's leg. As soon as Ginny removed it, the macaw took flight back out of the window. As she read the letter, Ginny smiled brightly. She read it out to Harry.

Dear Ginny,

We just wanted to let you know that we're coming back tomorrow. Venice has been so much fun. I've gotten quite a tan, can you believe it? We've bought lots of souvenirs for all of you. Dean is enjoying himself too. He has painted a lot of pictures as the view from our hotel room is absolutely beautiful. Last week, we went around all of Venice on a gondola. And yesterday, I saw a child wearing a top the exact same as one I saw Harry wear once. I asked the boy to take it off so I could take it home and show all of you, but he got scared and ran to his mother and his mother told one of the members of staff working at the beach, and we were asked never to return to that beach again. That was a shame because I found lots of lovely shells on the shore. I went back to get them, but the little boy's mother put a spell on a wooden log to chase me out of the beach. So Dean and I never went back there again.

Other than that, it has been fun. Dean and I bought you some liqueur chocolates and I bought a new dress at a market yesterday. It's bright yellow and t says "I love radishes" on it and there's an embroidery of radishes on the bottom of it.

Dean and I spent all of yesterday and this morning relaxiing on the beach (a different beach) skimming stones and drawing (in Dean's case) and collecting interesting shells.

We can't wait to see you tomorrow. We've missed you all so much. We've heard all about Ron and Hermione's flat. We hope the wedding plans are all going OK? Remember to put banners of onions around the wedding hall.

Lots of love,
Luna

oh, and Dean.

"Wow," Harry said, folding up the letter. "What a typical Luna-ish letter."

"I know. Tomorrow eh? It sounds like they had a good honeymoon anyway?"

"Can you imagine Luna being chased out of an Italian beach by an enchanted wooden log?" Harry asked, laughing.

"Oh, definitely!" Ginny replied, also giggling. "I wouldn't expect anything less of Luna!"

"So, what have you and Lavender planned?" Harry asked, cleaning his and Teddy's plates with his wand.

"Well, Lavender found me a good florist. Michael Branning. And she helped me book the caterers. And she and I are going to go shopping for a dress for our engagement party next week. You know, I might make Lavender one of my bridesmaids. I never really got to know her at Hogwarts, but she's actually very nice."

"What should I wear to this engagement party?" Harry asked.

"Whatever you want. Just not jeans and a T-shirt, please."

"OK," Harry answered.

"Oh, and Harry we need to start the guest list tomorrow. We need to sort out the amount of guests we'll have so we can find a big enough hall."

"That's fine. Teddy, how about a game of Exploding Snap?"

"Yeah!" Teddy exclaimed, jumping off his chair. "I'm so going to beat you!"

"We'll see about that!" he replied, getting up. "So," he added to Ginny. "When are we going to be having this wedding?"

"I don't know," Ginny said, biting her nails. "I want it to be soon. As soon as possible. But there's so mcuh to do!"

"Ginny," Harry said, taking her hands. "I don't care when I marry you. Just as long as I do."

"You're so sweet! Thank you! You have no idea how much pressure you've taken off me!"

"It's alright. Just tell me when and where it is and I'll be there. Just in time to say 'I do'."
