Chapter 19-- The Morning of the Move
Ginny placed one hand on her flat stomach and nestled further into the blankets. She heard James cry from his nursery and felt the slight rise to her left as Harry got up out of the bed.

"Just stay here," he said, leaning down and kissing her softly.

"Are you sure?" she asked.

"Yes," Harry said. As he opened the door, the crying stopped. Ginny looked at the door frantically, her eyes wide open.

Harry bolted into the nursery, only to see Ron rocking James.

"Thank God..." Harry murmered.

Ginny came into the nursery, cream comforter wrapped around her.

"Oh, it's only Ron," she said, a slight smile on her face. "Practicing on my son, are you?"

"Yeah. Are you mad?" he asked, his ears turning pink.

"No," Harry said, taking the little boy from his uncle.

"He's getting so big!" Ginny cooed.

"I can't wait until we have ours," Ron said wistfully.

"GINNY! HARRY!" Mrs. Weasley yelled up the stairs.

"What?" Ginny called.

"THE MOVING WIZARDS ARE HERE!" she yelled. "THEY WANT TO KNOW WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO MOVE TO YOUR PLACE IN PARIS!"

"Harry, can you deal with them?" Ginny asked, giving him a swift kiss on the cheek.

"Sure," Harry said, handing Ginny the baby. He headed downstairs.

"So, where's Hermione?" Ginny asked Ron.

"Asleep," Ron answered. "She was up all last night throwing up."

"Poor thing. I haven't really had that much morning sickness this time around. It only happens when I get stressed out and overwhelmed. Harry's been calming me down. But I start work tomorrow, so we can only guess how stressful that's going to be," Ginny said.

"Lucky you. She was calling me a pathetic bastard all night long. I thought she was going to wake up the whole house!" Ron groaned.

They were interrrupted as the moving wizards walked into the nursery and started dismantling James's crib. Ron and Ginny walked downstairs, James asleep on Ginny's shoulder, a light blue blanket over his back.

Harry was already at the breakfast table, enjoying one last Weasley breakfast. Ginny rolled her eyes and conjured a much smaller crib for James to lie down in. She sat him in the crib and sat down next to her husband and started piling food on her plate. Ron ran back up the stairs to wake Hermione.

A few minutes later, Hermione came down the stairs, looking extremely worn out. Ginny hugged her sympathetically. Hermione's eyes opened a bit more as she suddenly realized something.

"You and Harry and James are moving out today, aren't you?" she asked.

"Yeah," Ginny answered.

"I forgot all about that. It's just as well, isn't it. At least there won't be two pregnant women waddling around here in a few months. Ron is moving in at my place, but we'll still be around here a lot."

"You're moving?" Mrs. Weasley asked in surprise.

"Umm... yeah. I figured we should move in together. Even if we aren't getting married... at least not right away."

"You didn't propose?" Mr. Weasley asked, glancing at his wife, who looked like she was about to explode.

"Molly, there is a sleeping baby right there..." he warned her.

"We'll talk about this later," Mrs. Weasley said, clearly biting her tongue.

After breakfast, Harry and Ginny quickly kissed everyone goodbye and Will hugged James as best he could. Then Harry and Ginny Disapparated to their new house on the outskirts of Paris with James in their arms.

The first thing they noticed was the welcoming fireplace with James and Lily's portrait right above the mantle.

"So, what do you think?" James asked.

"It's... beautiful..." Ginny said in wonder.

"The perfect place to raise little James and the new baby, huh?" Lily asked.

"How big is it?" Harry asked.

"Around 8200 square feet," James answered. "Arthur picked it out. He thought it was gorgeous. It would usually cost a pretty penny, too. But the owner needed to sell it quickly and when he found out who wanted to buy it, he jumped at lowering the price to a much more affordable rate. And part of the Potter vault was able to pay for all of it."

"Just how much of the Potter vault?" Harry asked, cringing.

"Not much. About 4 of it."

"That's it?" Ginny asked in astonishment.

"Yeah. So go ahead. Look around!" James cried with glee.

Harry and Ginny laughed as they started to look around.


I know I haven't updated this story in literally FOREVER, but I couldn't figure out where to take the plot, and then I started the whole "You Can't Just Turn Back Time" series. I hope to update the sequel to that next. Then I'll try to post another update on here. It just depends on how many updatesI get for this chapter and for the latest chapter on the sequel.

Sorry for the long wait,

James's Girl Forever
