Chapter 6 of Interruptions

SEVEN MONTHS LATER !

Ginny waddled into the living room. She fell on to the sofa next to Harry.

"Hi sweetie , you ok ?" said Harry , rubbing her very round belly.

"Well , how would you feel if you felt like a whale and didn't have any French vanilla ice cream ?" Ginny said grumpily.

"Aww Hun , it will be over in a few days. Then we will have 3 gorgeous children." Said Harry, trying his best to cheer her up.

"Yeah I suppose." Replied Ginny. She curled up against Harry's chest.

"So , what do you want to do for the rest of today ?" asked Harry.

"Um … I wouldn't mind going to see Hermione and Ron." Answered Ginny.

"Ok then let's go." Said Harry.

Harry helped Ginny off the sofa. They went into the hall and put their winter coats on. It was a very cold winter's day.

They drove to Hermione and Ron's as Ginny couldn't apparate or floo to their house.

They walked up to the top floor of the apartment building , which was where Ron and Hermione's apartment was. Ginny knocked on the door with three sharp knocks. Harry raised his eyebrows at her.

"What ? I need the toilet !" stated Ginny.

Harry shook his head.

Ron swung the door open. He had a worried look on his face.

"Oh it's only you two ! what do you want ?" he said shortly.

Ginny pushed him out of the way and headed towards the bathroom.

"Well , Ginny wanted to come and see you guys and she needs the toilet. Why do you ask , are we interrupting something between you and Hermione ?" Harry said , wiggling his eyebrows up and down suggestively.

"No , I was about to take a shower actually. And Hermione is at work taking her last exam." Replied Ron , huffily.

"Sorry mate but you can't really upset a heavily pregnant woman now can you ? Especially when she is your sister and has the Weasley temper." Said Harry.

"Your right. Come in." said Ron.

Harry walked into the huge flat. The kitchen was to the right , the living room right in front of the door , the dinning room to the left and the bedrooms and bathroom down the hall off the living room. The apartment had four bedrooms and was very big for Hermione and Ron. But that meant they wouldn't have to move straight away when they had kids.

"So when is Hermione due back ?" Harry asked Ron.

"Any minute now. When she gets back we are going to out for a meal to celebrate." Replied Ron.

"What are you going to celebrate ?" Harry asked , curiously.

"That she is finally going to become an official Healer." Answered Ron.

"That's great!" Harry said.

Suddenly , there was a pop behind Ron and Harry. Hermione had just apparated home.

"Hey Harry , what are you doing here ?" she asked.

"Ginny wanted to come and see you but now that .. " Harry was cut off in mid sentence because Ginny had just screamed from the bathroom.

Harry raced to the bathroom , with Hermione and Ron on his heels.

"Gin , what's the matter ?" Harry said as he entered the bathroom. Ginny was lying in the corner of the bathroom , clutching her round stomach. She didn't answer , she just let out a sob. Harry fell to his knees next to her.

"Ginny talk to me. What's the matter ?" Harry asked again.

"It hurts." Was all Ginny said.

There was a puddle on the floor by Ginny.

"She's in labour !" shouted Hermione. " come on we need to get her to St Mungo's. QUICK!"

Harry picked up Ginny in his arms and carried her to the living room.

"How do we get there ? We can't apparate or floo !" stated Harry.

"We will have to floo there. When you floo do you fall when you land ?" Hermione asked Harry.

"Yeah , I have never landed on my feet." Answered Harry.

"What about you Ron ?" said Hermione , turning to look at Ron.

"I always land on my feet." Replied Ron.

"Ok , Ron you will floo over to the hospital with Ginny , Harry you will go to your house and get all things Ginny will need when she is at the hospital. We will meet you there." Said Hermione , Ron and Harry just stared at her. " GO "

Harry quickly and carefully pasted Ginny to Ron and disapparated to Grimmauld place. Ron and Ginny flooed to St Mungo's with Hermione right behind them.

When they arrived Hermione pushed straight to the front. She said something to the receptionist and the receptionist told her where to go.

The pain in Ginny's stomach was getting worse. She groaned in agony.

Ron followed Hermione to the maternity ward. Once they got there , he put her gently on a bed.

Healer Ryan Lowe and Healer Keller made their way over to her.

"Hello Ginny , I heard you have gone into labour." Said Healer Keller.

" ye .. AGHHHHH" said Ginny , as another piercing contraction hit her.

"Ok , Hermione said something about you complaining it constantly hurts. Could you tell me where ?" asked Ryan.

Ginny pointed to her lower abdomen. The healer put his wand to it and the wand glowed a bright orange.

"Ok I am going to talk with Healer Keller for a minute. Hermione , could you get a pain relief potion for her ?" he asked Hermione.

"Sure." Replied Hermione.

Hermione went off to get the potion. Ron sat down next to Ginny and held her hand and with his free hand he stroked her hair. Tears slowly trickled down Ginny's cheeks. Ron hated to see his little sister in pain.

"Shush , you will be fine. Just think of what you will get in the end." Said Ron , trying to calm her down and make her focus on something other than the pain. He had learnt this technique from when he injured himself from Quidditch.

The corners of Ginny's mouth pricked upwards into a smile.

"So , have you thought of any names ?" asked Ron.

"Well , we want to call the boys Sirius Dylan Joseph , and Shane Ronald James. We want to call the girl Scarlett Julia Faith." Said Ginny.

" They are really nice." Said Ron. Hermione then came back with a pain relief potion.

"Here you go , Gin. Take that and the pain will go." Said Hermione , handing Ginny the bottle with just the right amount in there.

Ginny downed it one.

"Where's Harry ? Shouldn't he be here by now ?" she asked worried.

"Um .. I'm sure he's on his way. He probably has a lot of stuff to bring with him." Hermione said reassuringly.

Healer Keller and Lowe made their way over to the bed. They did a few more tests on Ginny's stomach. They whispered in hushed voices.

"Could we talk to Ginny on her own for a minute ?" asked Healer Lowe.

"Whatever you want to say to me , say it in front of them." Said Ginny sharply.

"Ok , Well there is problem with the babies. One of them is being strangled by the umbilical cord , this is causing discomfort for all the babies. It is all the reason for the pain because the baby is pulling on the cord. The only way to deliver the babies safely is by operation. It will put your life at risk though." Explained Healer Keller.

"I will go through with it." Replied Ginny straight away.

"Are you sure ? Would you like to wait for your husband to arrive first ? " asked Ryan.

"No" snapped Ginny.

"Ok , we will get a Healer to prepare you for the theatre. Could you please go and wait in the waiting room ?" said Healer Keller turning to look at Hermione and Ron.

"Sure." Said Ron. He gave Ginny a kiss on the head and walked out of the door. Hermione squeezed her hand and whispered " I will find out where Harry is , good luck." and she kissed her forehead.

Ron and Hermione left the ward. Ginny was wheeled off straight away.

Hermione sat down , while Ron paced in front of her. He paused for a few seconds then carried on pacing. It was making Hermione very dizzy and sick.

"RONALD , would you please sit ! You are making me feel sick." Snapped Hermione.

"Sorry" mumbled Ron. He sat down next to Hermione. "I'm just worried. She is my little sister and I don't want anything to happen to her."

"She will be fine. Healer Keller is one of the best surgeons here." Stated Hermione.

Ron stayed silent for a few minutes. The silence was deafening. He couldn't stand it anymore.

"Are you going to find out where Harry is ?" he snapped at Hermione.

"There is no need to snap at me." Snapped back Hermione. "I'll go find out now."

Hermione got up and went downstairs to the reception. As the approached she could see Harry arguing with the receptionist.

"Harry , what is going on ?" she shouted across the room. She quickly walked over to him.

"The receptionist doesn't believe I am Harry Potter !" Harry said angrily.

"Heather, this is Harry Potter trust me. I have been his best friend for 10 years. This is no impostor." Said Hermione.

"Ok , go through. Hermione will show you where to go." Said Heather , huffily.

Harry followed Hermione to the waiting room , where Ron was pacing again.

"Hermione , what's going on ?" asked Harry. His expression was now very tense and nervous.

"Well , one of the babies is being strangled by the umbilical cord and causing discomfort for the other babies and Ginny. The only way for a safe delivery is to operate but it puts Ginny's life at risk. Ginny has gone straight ahead with it." Explained Hermione.

Harry face went sheet white. He fell on one of the chairs.

"So there is a chance I could lose all them ?" he asked , softly.

Hermione just nodded. She couldn't bring herself to talk.

"I'm sure everything will be fine." Said Ron.

"How can you be sure ? One complication and they could all be gone." Said Harry. He dropped the bag he was holding. He dropped his head into his hands and started crying.

Hermione had to admit it wasn't pretty sight seeing a grown man sobbing but she had to help console him because he was her best friend. She sat next to him and brought him into a hug. He continued to cry into her shoulder. They stayed like that for hours.

Ron continued to pace back and forth. His parents should be there soon. When Hermione had gone to find Harry he had sent an owl to them telling them what had happened.

"Harry dear ." said Mrs Weasley as she approached him. Harry stood up and walked straight over to her and embraced her in a hug.

"I am so sorry. This is all my fault that your daughter is in all this pain." He whispered in her ear.

"Don't be silly Harry , there is always risks with pregnancy and it just seemed to happen to Ginny. Why don't you go get yourself a coffee ?" said Mr Weasley.

"Ok , I'll be back as soon as I can." Said Harry. He went up a level to the where the coffee machine was. He got himself and everyone else a coffee.

"Harry , is that you ?" said a very familiar voice.

Harry turned round to see Parvati Patil heading towards him.

"Hi Parvati. I don't mean to be rude but I can't talk , I need to get back to Ginny." He said and he started to walk away. Unfortunately , she caught up with him.

"Why is she here ?" asked Parvati.

"She's in theatre delivering our children. Now I really need to get back." He said very sternly.

"Oh I hope she is ok. Well I have to go see to more patients. Maybe I'll see you round." Said Parvati. With that she turned round and walked away.

Harry rushed back to the others. When he got there , Ron had stopped pacing and Mr and Mrs Weasley had sat down on the chairs. He gave everyone a coffee.

"Thanks" chorused Ron and Mr and Mrs Weasley.

"No thanks" said Hermione.

Harry raised his eyebrows sceptically at her.

"I just don't want a coffee." Hermione replied to Harry's raised eyebrows.

"Ok" was all Harry said.

All five of them waited for hours. Ron had taken to pacing again. Harry had joined him as well. Hermione kept her head down and her hands resting in her lap. Mr and Mrs Weasley were talking in hushed voice's.

After five hours of waiting , a Healer finally came and talked to Harry.

"Mr Potter ?" The healer asked the room.

"Yes. Is Ginny ok ? What about the babies?" asked Harry.

"You have three gorgeous children and Ginny is in intensive care and so is your little girl. Would you like see them ?" The Healer.

"Intensive care ?" croaked Ron." Why is Ginny in intensive care ? Did something go wrong ? Is she going to be ok?" Ron bombarded the Healer with questions.

"May I ask who you are ? And there was small complication. Ginny was bleeding from inside to womb. With the right potions and rest she will ready she go home in a week." Said the Healer.

"I am her brother. And can I go in with Harry ?" asked Ron.

"Well I suppose so. Who would you like to see first : the babies or Ginny ?" asked the Healer.

"Ginny!" said Ron and Harry in unison.

" Follow me" said the Healer sharply. She seemed to be getting annoyed at Ron and Harry.

The Healer took Ron and Harry down a level to a ward called intensive care. She walked straight down the middle of the ward. At the end was Ginny sleeping peacefully in the last bed. Ginny was connected to many magical devices. The Healer then left Ron and Harry on their own.

Harry sat down on the chair next to bed and took hold of Ginny's hand.

Ron sat on the other chair. When he looked up he saw a tear trickle down Harry's face. Ron didn't know what to do. He had never seen Harry cry.

"Harry , mate , she's going to be fine. Ginny always pulls through." Said Ron , trying to comfort Harry.

"I know but I feel like this is all my fault." Harry said.

"It's not!" said Ron , sternly.

"I'm going to see to babies. You want to come ?" asked Harry.

"No , I'll stay here. She might wake up." Replied Ron.

Harry walked down the ward. He stopped the Healer who had showed him where Ginny was. He walked up to her.

"Um … excuse me , could you tell me where my children are ?" he asked.

" Yea , their straight through that door." She said , pointing to the door on the left. "Your little girl in another ward on this floor."

"Ok , Which ward is that ?" asked Harry.

"It's the baby intensive care ward." She replied and then she walked to tend a patient.

Harry walked out of the ward and looked for the baby intensive care ward. He took a right and spotted the ward. He walked into it and saw lots of tiny babies. He looked around the room for his baby. Then he saw her. On her cot was a sign that baby girl potter.

Harry walked over to her. She was on a ventilator. Harry put out a hand to touch her head. The moment he touched her she woke up. Surprisingly , she didn't cry. She just stared up at Harry with her emerald green eyes. She looked just like Harry , except she had Ginny's hair already. She reached one her teensy hands to meet Harry's. She wrapped her whole hand around his thumb.

Harry smiled down at her. She was gorgeous.

Just like her mother , thought Harry.

"I think I better go see your brother's now" Harry whispered.

Just before Harry left the ward , he got his wand out and changed the sign on her cot to Scarlett Julia Faith Potter. He smiled and left the room. He walked back to Ginny's ward and then went into the room where the boys were.

He walked and he saw only two babies in there. He walked over to them. He wasn't going to put their names on until Ginny had woken up.

These two looked just like Ginny , except they had Harry's hair. Harry went over to the baby by the window. Harry stroked the already messy hair. He then went over to his other son. His hair was a bit more tamed. He picked him up. He was so tiny in Harry's arms. Harry felt like a giant. He put his son into one arm , he then picked up his other son with his other arm. He then walked back into Ginny's ward.

When he walked in , Hermione and Mr and Mrs Weasley had joined Ron by Ginny's bed.

"Hey guys , look who wants to say hi." Whispered Harry. He gently walked over to them.

"Oh their gorgeous!" said a voice in middle of everyone. Ginny had woken up while Harry was gone.

Harry passed one of his sons to Mr Weasley and the other one to Hermione. Ron got out of his chair and let Harry sit next to Ginny.

"Hey , how you feeling ?" said Harry , taking hold of Ginny's hand.

"Much better now that you're here. Where's Scarlett ?" she asked.

"She's down the corridor on a ventilator. You and her have to stay in for a week. The boys can go home tomorrow." Replied Harry.

"Can I hold the boys ?" asked Ginny.

"Yeah , you don't have to ask their your children !" said Harry.

Hermione passed one of the babies to Ginny and so did Mr Weasley.

Ginny had one in each arm. She stared down at them. They were most gorgeous babies she had ever seen. She assumed Scarlett was just as gorgeous.

"Who's going to who ?" asked Harry after a few minutes.

"Well I think this one should be called Shane Ronald James because he looks like James." Said Ginny pointing to the baby with the messy hair. "And this one should be called Sirius Dylan Joseph."

"Aww they are great names !" exclaimed Mrs Weasley.

They all stayed an chatted for about half an hour. Then the Healer came told Ginny that she could go and see Scarlett.

Harry and Ginny went together to see her. When they walked into the room , Ginny gasped because she was surprised at the tubes coming out of her. She grabbed hold of Harry. Harry lead her over to the cot.

Ginny stroked Scarlett's hair. Tears start trickle down Ginny's face. She tried to wipe them away slyly but Harry noticed.

"What's the matter sweetie ?" asked Harry.

"I didn't realise she was so ill. And she's so beautiful. Its hard to believe we created this." Said Ginny , walking away from Scarlett and walking into Harry's arms.

The two of the held each other ,while watching their daughter sleep peacefully.
