Still don't own Harry Potter, but I do own Rick... Muhahahahaha

Ok, for this time around, Hermione and other little characters are going to play a bigger role, way bigger, and for your knowlege this is just stuff that happend before, and by the way, Hermione is a Healer, and Ron works for the Ministry, and Harry is an Auror in training, and I will switch from Ginny to the Burrow.

She was glad Hermione had gotten the hint, it would be a very awkward thing to explain. She looked at her window and faced the woods, behind those woods was the Burrow. She swore she could almost hear them laughing every once in awhile.

"Maybe their happy without me, I'm not that important." She sighed, "Just one out of seven others"

She needed to take a break, she decided to go to work early. She slowly walked to her room, she grabbed a pair of baggy jeans and a loose shirt, and tossed them on. She put up her hair and pocketed her wand. She walked out to her car, it was an old and rusted light blue truck. She hopped in the driver's seat and started up the noisy old thing.

She passed by muggle houses and muggle children, they all seemed so simple, so oblivious, so happy…

"What I would give for that…" She sighed again.

She drove down a couple more streets till she came to a tiny building. It was the smallest repair shop in the town, but it was the most popular. They had some very good mechanics. Her boss, Rick, came out to great her.

"Your three months pregnant, and you are still the most pretty thing I've seen all day," He gave her a smile. "And I've seen some very pretty things today."

Rick was a short, chubby man with greased brown hair, and perfectly white teeth. Not the image of perfection, but nice all the same.

"I do my best," She said, "So what's in store for me today?"

"Well, since people get sorta worried with a pregnant woman under their car, you will be answering phones." He tapped her belly with a pen then handed it to her. "Not very exiting, but all I ask of you is to write down messages, and not to fall asleep this time." He gave her a wink and walked off.

She had been working at Rick's Body Shop for two months now. She wouldn't have even had the job, if not for the tiny man. Without the correct schooling, she should have been rejected, and really she was. As she was walking out the door she had a break down and told him she was one month pregnant and she needed this job to support herself and her future child. He had felt sorry for her, and had her answer telephones. One day, one of the mechanics was sick, and no one wanted to take his spot, she decided to take a whack at it, and turned an hour job into that of five minutes. She'd been working on cars ever since then, up until this man decided he didn't want a woman working on his car, he said it was because she was pregnant and thought she would get hurt. Though he wouldn't let, Lydia, one of their best mechanics, work on it either, so some guy got the job. It took him four days to get the job done, where it would have taken her or Lydia, an hour or two.

She missed the work underneath the cars too. Using a wrench was a very good stress reliever. Having a father that loved muggle cars had come in handy, she knew most of the parts. She also saved her company a lot of money, she was able to "fix" things just like magic. They barely ever had to buy new parts

Lucky for her, they were having a slow day and the phone barely rang at all, she was about to fall asleep when she heard a familiar voice. She slowly got up and leaned her ear against her office door

"You heard my wife sir, she wants the car done by tonight."

Malfoy…

"We are going on a long trip and we just might need our car, I'm really not in the mood to walk."

She heard Rick, "Really, we can't have it done by tonight, well unless…"

"Unless what, my wife and I are due for our honeymoon, and if you want me to go to some other muggle shop, I'll will."

"What did you call it?" Rick asked

Ginny thought this would be a good time to show herself, it really was an odd sight. Malfoy towering over Rick, and Rick wasn't bothered at all, he was very calm, but the odd thing was the girl next to Draco was very familiar… It was Katie Bell! Malfoy had married a Gryffindor!

"You need any help Rick?" She gave him a slight smile.

"Yea, it seems like these two kids are impatient about getting on their honeymoon." He winked at her, "I'll leave you all alone, and I hope you don't mind a pregnant woman working on your car."

It took awhile for the words to sink in. "Pregnant?" Malfoy's jaw dropped.

"Damn you Rick…" Ginny muttered to herself. She walked silently out to their car.

"You went off and got yourself pregnant?" He started again.

"Well, you went off and married a Gryffindor, I never saw that one coming." She shot back.

"Ginny," Katie Started, "Please tell me you married…"

Ginny cast her gaze down to the ground.

"Who is the little sonofa- "Draco was cut off

"Draco!" She directed her attention back to Ginny. "How far are you along?"

That was what Ginny loved about Katie, she could be cruel when she needed to, but she could also be very nice, being most likely the reason she married Draco. She was also glad she didn't ask who the father was.

"Three months now" She answered

"That means before the battle…" He looked her in the eyes, "Potter…"

"Well! Let's start on that car of yours!" She said, quickly changing the subject.

She slid underneath and with a couple taps of her wand, and a good turn or two of her wrench, it was all fixed.

"There you go, all better," She gave an 'I don't want to talk about it' face, "Well have fun."

"Ginny," Draco said, "There are still deatheaters out there, and I'll be damned if they aren't after Harry, keep that child safe."

With a final nod, they both turned and left.

"I take it you know them?" Rick asked coming out from the office.

"We all went to school together," She turned and gave him the money they had given her, "I'm going to head home, you think you can handle things here?"

"Yup, bye sweetheart" He left counting his money.

She jumped in her truck and drove home, she immediately grabbed her owl and a piece of parchment.

Hermione,

I want to see you again, my address is included here so you can find me. We have a lot to talk about.

Sincerely, Ginny
