Chapter 15:Revelations
Harry Arthur kneeled down to kiss his unconscious sister on the head gently. "I'm going to go and check on Aunt Ginny and see what's wrong with her. I will be back soon. D'you guys want me to bring you back some dinner?" He asked,looking at the four softly.
"That will be fine.Your mother and I will probably be staying here for awhile longer." Ron told him,then he turned to look at Harry and Luna and said,"You two can go have dinner and get some rest if you want."
Harry looked at Luna and helped her from her seat. "Yeah. I am a bit hungry,plus I suppose you would like some time alone with your daughter. C'mon you two." He said ushering Harry Arthur and Luna out of the room.
Without looking back the three walked out of the room and into the Great Hall and looked around for Ginny. She sat next to Neville and they were the only ones left in the Great Hall. Her long red hair was out of it's ponytail and she had changed into a pair of pants and a yellow and red tee-shirt. Harry Arthur hurried over to her and shook her shoulder gently. She twisted around to look at him and she stood up quickly and stared up at him.
Now that Ginny looked at him closely she was surprised by how much Harry Arthur looked like Ron. His red hair was short and thick and his brown eyes where flecked with blue. He was about six foot two already,towering over her five foot frame. Now that she thought about it,the girl in that bed in the hospital wing had looked so much like Hermione except for the fact that her bushy hair was red instead of brown.
She had known when she saw them just who they might be. She knew the only reason she had gotten so angry was because Harry,Ron,and Hermione hadn't thought to tell her and yet Luna knew. She cast her gaze over Harry,hurt showing clear in her light brown eyes and said,"Why didn't you three tell me?"
Harry and Harry Arthur both looked down guiltily. Then Harry looked up and said,"Look,Gin...we are sorry that we didn't tell you but we had so much to worry about already that it just slipped our minds. Besides Mconogall said we shouldn't tell anyone."
Ginny looked at him suspiciously,"Then why did you tell Luna?" she asked,her hands fisted at her hips.
Harry shook his head and said,"She figured it out herself."
Neville stood up to look at Harry Arthur who was a few inches taller than him,"So I suppose your name really isn't Chase Rielly?" he questioned conversationally.
Harry Arthur shook his red head and said,"No,I'm Harry Arthur."
"What is your sister's name will she be okay?" Neville asked with concern written in his hazel eyes.
"Her name is Alexandria Molly,everyone calls her Lexi though. I'm really not sure if she is alright. Madame Pomfrey said that Lexi is unconscious and paralyzed from what the deatheaters d-did to her."
Neville looked at the young boy who he didn't know would soon be his nephew and said,"I'm sorry."
Harry Arthur looked at him bitterly,managing the tiniest of smiles. "Thanks." then the smile fell from his face and he said with a frown,"I suppose you would know what it's like with your parent's and all." He met Neville's stunned expression and said,"I know of course since you get married to---------------" then he stopped eyes widening as he realized what he just about revealed.
Neville looked hopefully torwards Ginny who was talkin with Luna and Harry. He hoped that what Harry Arthur had said meant what he thought.
A half hour later,after saying goodnight to Harry,Neville,and Luna Harry Arthur and Ginny walked into the hospital wing,floating plates of food over to the bedside table where Hermione and Ron sat.
Sitting down Ginny looked at her brother and Hermione tentativly and said, "Listen I--I am sorry for how I acted. I was just hurt that you didn't think to tell me what was going on. Harry explained it to me though. I can't believe I am actually getting to meet my nephew and am looking at my niece. It's surreal."
Hermione smiled and stood up to hug the girl,"I'm sorry too Ginny. I overreacted,I should've thought of how you might feel instead of getting on you for it." she said. She turned to look at Ron with a threatening look that clearly said that he had better apologize. Ron mumbled softly and stood up to lean down and hug his sister,"Yeah I guess I'm sorry too." he grumbled.
