Chapter 23: surprises
ONE WEEK LATER
"Daddy" Lily called
"What Lils" Harry asked making his way to her room
"Mummy sick" Harry rushed to the bathroom
"Hermione" Harry asked
"I'm fine Harry" Hermione lied
"You do not look fine to me" Harry said
"Harry please just leave for a minute" Hermione asked
"Ok I'll be downstairs," Harry said walking out of the bathroom
Harry went downstairs wondering what was wrong with Hermione. He didn't have a clue what was wrong and sat there wondering
Hermione arrived down the stairs a few minutes later and sat on Harry's lap.
"Harry let me tell you something" Hermione said her legs sprawled out over him
"What" he asked
"I am"
"Mummy" Lily called
"Yes sweetie" Hermione sighed
"James doesn't believe me when I said we are going to the park today," Lily sobbed
"I'll be down in a sec Harry" Hermione sighed running up the stairs
"James where are you" she said looking for him
"He's in with Harry" Ella pointed out
"James George Potter get out here now" Hermione said sternly
"What mummy" he said timidly
"Now for starters I know you aren't timid so stop pretending to be, and secondly stop purposely upsetting your sister," Hermione said looking at his tiny face
"Ok mummy" James smiled
"We'll be going in about ten minutes so get ready" Hermione smiled
"Ok" Harry said jumping up to get his jumper
"And if you need help I'm only downstairs" Hermione said turning to go downstairs
"What did they want?" Harry questioned as soon as Hermione walked into the room
"About the park" Hermione sighed sitting down on a couch
"So anyway what did you want to tell me?" Harry asked
"I wanted to tell you that I-" Hermione was cut off by Ella shouting down the stairs
"Mummy Harry got his head stuck in his jumper" Ella shouted
"I'll be down in a minute" Hermione smiled
As she headed up the stairs, she wondered when she was ever going to get to tell Harry what she wanted
"He's in there," Lily pointed to her mum
"Harry how in the Dumbledore's name did you do this" Hermione asked
"I was rushing," he said through muffles
"Oh and what did I tell you about that" Hermione said
"Not to because it will hurt in the end" Harry said defeated
"Exactly" Hermione sighed
"Now is everyone ready to go" Harry called from the bottom of the stairs
Each of them walked down the stairs and Harry made sure that they were all in their coats and ready to go for Hermione
As they walked through the Muggle Park Harry wondered what Hermione wanted to tell him, he didn't dare ask though as he knew that she would bite his head off, quite literally
"Swings" Lily shouted running towards a large double swing set in the park
"She's so immature" Ella said from behind a book, she was already sitting reading Hogwarts a History
"Oh Ella darling, you're only six go and play"
"Seven in June" she corrected Hermione
"Right seven in June, how could I forget" Hermione rolled her eyes
"Just go play" Hermione tried to reason
"I wanna read the stowy about the phioperpers stone" Ella told her mum
"What" Hermione Asked?
"The phioperpers stone" she said again
"Can I see that for a sec?" asked Hermione
"Ok" she sighed
She pulled herself off the huge bench seat and joined Lily swinging, with Harry pushing her
Hermione flicked through the story of the philosophers stone, and yep as she had predicted Harry, she and Ron were in the story. She laughed quietly to herself and engrossed herself in reading the story
Hermione didn't even notice Harry sitting down beside her, she was engrossed in the philosopher's stone so much that Harry had to call her name several times before she put the book down and noticed him
"What Harry" Hermione asked
"Well the kids want us to play with them on the swings and slides" Harry laughed
"Fine" she said putting the book in her bag and joining Harry and her children to play a game of 'who can swing the highest', Lily of course ended up being the champion, as she loved swinging in the park
They arrived home at six thirty and seeing as Hermione was not in the mood for cooking she just ordered a muggle take away which they all enjoyed thoroughly.
As Harry put each of the children up to bed accordingly, Hermione cleaned around. As Harry arrived down the stairs, she sat down
"So we finally have a minute's peace" she smiled
"Yeah" Harry smiled sitting down
"Harry I have wanted to tell you something all day" Hermione said smiling
"Well what is it?" Harry asked waiting for her to finally tell him
"I'm pregnant" she smiled
