Scene 3: The Revelation

Evening of June 5, Ginny and Harry's bedroom

Ginny was pacing around the bedroom muttering to herself.

"Where is he? I hope he meant he went to cool off. He better not have ditched me. The jerk…I'm not the inconsiderate one here. I'm about to give up everything here and he can't even let me explain why I forgot our anniversary."

Ginny plopped down on the bed and placed her head in her hands.

"Where the hell is he? If our anniversary is as important as he made it out to be, then why isn't he here? I can't even call him. Stupid ass left his phone here."

She heard the creak of a door open and close.

"Harry?"

Ginny stood and took a few steps before hearing a voice.

"Ginny?"

"Oh…in the bedroom."

Astoria walked into the bedroom.

"What are you doing? Shouldn't you be with Harry for your anniversary?"

"I forgot what day it was."

Ginny sat on the floor at the end of the bed.

"Ah…and he stormed out of here. I don't know why you do that."

"It's not my fault. I've just been so caught up on other shit. How does he expect me to remember everything?"

"He doesn't. It would just be considerate if you did."

"Oh shut up. I don't remember you being considerate when Draco told you he was gay."

"As I seem to recall, he also cheated on me, so I have an excuse. What's yours?"

"Oh, I don't know. Maybe because in seven months, everyone is going to be calling me mommy."

"Excuse me?"

Astoria rushed to sit next to her.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I just found out a few days ago," Ginny answered as she wiped the tears from her eyes, "Why do you think I wasn't drinking last night?"

"I admit it was odd behavior. Especially for you. I don't think I've ever seen you at a party without a drink in your hand."

"Thanks," Ginny replied sarcastically.

"For what?"

"Never mind…"

They sat for a few minutes until they heard the door open again but just barely. Harry slowly walked into the room hoping Ginny would be gone. He jumped back as he saw them.

"Astoria, Ginny!" exclaimed Harry, "What's wrong?"

Astoria stood up.

"I think you two need to—"

"No!" screamed Ginny.

She jumped up and grabbed Astoria's arm.

"I might need you here."

Astoria hesitated and sat on the bed. Ginny turned towards Harry, who remained at the door.

"Where've you been?" Ginny asked.

"Just at Draco's. I had to cool off."

"Oh."

The room was silent. Harry was getting aggravated with Ginny's sniffling.

"What's wrong then? I know you weren't crying over what happened this morning."

"That's a little harsh," interrupted Astoria.

"Come off it, Astoria. We all know how she's a conceited, little, twat that cares nothing for others."

"Is that what you really think of her?"

"Of course not. Only when she's actually acting like one."

"I'm pregnant, you asshole!" Ginny yelled out.

All three stared at each other.

"Excuse me?" whispered Harry.

"Why do you think I've been so moody lately? I've been trying to fix myself up lately because in a few months I'm going to be this fat, ugly person—"

"We're having a baby?"

"No, I'm having a baby. I don't see you popping one out. I…I just didn't know how to tell you. We've been having fights constantly and—"

Harry slowly walked towards Ginny.

"I'm going to be a father?"

"Yes?"

Harry suddenly pulled Ginny into an embrace and kissed her.

"Aww…you guys are so cute," sighed Astoria.

"I can't believe you're happy," Ginny muttered after the kiss.

"Why wouldn't I be? I always wanted a family."

"It's just that…with how we left things this morning. I tried calling, but stupid you left your phone here. And I guess I just got carried away with my thoughts. I should have known you were with Draco and called there."

Ginny smiled and tried to kiss Harry again, but he stepped back.

"Draco…" Harry quietly said.

"What?"
