Draco's POV
Ginny comes into the dining room carrying the cake. It has four straight candles and one shaped like a four.
"Are you ok?" I ask her as she passes by me.
"I'm fine!" She sounds a little pissed. I really wish she would let me do a little more to help her. Everyone starts singing 'Happy Birthday.' She sets the cake down in front of our son, Ryan. He scrunches up his face, concentrating. He then takes in a giant breath and blows out all the candles! Everyone claps. It is mostly family, but some of Ryan's friends are here. Ginny cuts the cake and I hand everyone their piece. She hands me mine and takes hers. She is about to put the rest away when I tell her to go sit down. I put it away and then take a seat beside her. The children all start talking excitedly, some with their mouths full. Ginny rubs her free hand on her baby belly. She is due next week, but will probably go into labour early.
"How is the baby doing?" I ask her.
"He, or she, is fine. It is me that is dying. My back is killing me!" she says.
"I told you to let me do more of the work," I tell her. I reach my arm over and rub her lower back, but this doesn't last long because the kids finish their cake and are ready for presents. I am just glad that everyone is getting picked up soon. We move to the family room where Ryan sits in his little chair and his friends circle around him. Ginny sits carefully on the sofa as I hand Ryan his first present.
"From Uncles Fred and George," I read out. I look nervously at the twins and hope it isn't too loud or annoying. He rips open the packaging to reveal a set of two enchanted toy cars. The horns honk and the engines can rev, but they aren't too noisy. Sadly though, they only stop if you confine them. I sigh. Ryan opens his other presents. Within twenty minutes, everyone has gone home. Ryan plays with his new toys. He then comes up to me with the car set. I reluctantly open the box.
"When you are done playing cars, you need to catch them and put them in the toy box. Okay?" I tell him. He nods and I hand them over. He runs off happy to play with the cars.
A while later, it is time for Ryan to go for a nap. He is tired and was up early. The naps will stop soon though. I carry him to his room that is painted blue. I lay him down in his bed and give him a thin blanket because it is fall. I then go back downstairs to Ginny. We sit watching Muggle television in the family room. She gets up to go to the washroom and when she opens the loo door, I suddenly hear it; a horn honking! Ryan never put his cars away! I get a little mad and get up to try and find it.
"Aaack!" Thunk. "Draco!" Ginny calls. I can tell she is fighting tears. I rush around the corner and find her in the hallway. One of the cursed cars is on its back at her feet. I hurry to help her up. She fell on her stomach.
"Are you ok?" I ask her as she slowly gets up.
"I think-" Splat! Suddenly, the floor is wet. "Draco, that was my water!" she shouts.
"Ok. Um," I try to stay calm. I guide Ginny to the couch and then go to the Floo. I floo call my mother.
"Draco! Is something wrong?" she asks once the connection is made and she sees my worried face.
"We need you to get over here!" I tell her anxiously.
"Is it?-" she starts to ask. I cut her off.
"It is time!"
"I'm on my way!" she says and closes the connection. She suddenly appears in the living room.
"Okay, Ryan is taking a nap, but will probably only sleep for an hour or two. If he asks where we are, just tell him that he is going to be a big brother very soon. There are leftovers for dinner and be careful; there are two enchanted toy cars around here somewhere. Ryan was supposed to put them away. We will Floo you when there is news," I tell her. I grab Ginny's bag and we Floo to the hospital.
"Push, push, push, push! That's it! The head is almost out." The healer says, nearly five hours later. Ginny is breaking my hand, she is squeezing it so tightly. This is her first time pushing because Ryan was an emergency removal. "On the next contraction push as hard as you can." Not even a minute later Ginny was pushing again.
"AHHH. DRACO I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!" She screams.
"What about the kids?" I ask.
"The head is out. With the next contraction your baby should be born." The healer says.
"Fine! But we are never doing anything ever again." She says, then starts pushing again. "NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN!" She screams. Suddenly there is crying.
"It's a girl!" The healer says. "Daddy do you want to come cut the cord?" I am asked.
"Of course I do." I walk over and take the small scissors and snip the clamped cord. I look at my daughter. She is beautiful, just like her mother. She is then cleaned and wrapped in a pretty pink blanket, a little pink hat is put on her head. She is placed in my arms. I take her over and hand her to Ginny. Ginny holds her until it is time for the after birth. I then take my daughter and leave the room. I walk around gently rocking the tiny baby. My tiny baby. My little girl. I will protect her from anything, I would kill for her. Nothing will ever hurt her, and if any boy ever touches her in anyway, the body won't be found. Ever. I whisper these thing to her. She has already got me wrapped around her little finger. Eventually it is safe for us to go back in. I sit down by Ginny. She takes the baby.
"What are we going to name her?" She asks.
"I don't know."
"What were you calling here for the last twenty minutes?"
"Princess." I say. Ginny gives me a look I should title. 'For fuck sakes. She got you wrapped around her little finger that fast? Really Draco?' "What about Katelyn Narcissa Molly Malfoy?" I ask. "She looks like a Katelyn. And we can call her katy for short."
"That sounds nice, but maybe not the Molly." Ginny says.
"Yeah?" I ask.
"Yes. Now we have Ryan Charlie Draco and Katelyn Narcissa." She says.
"It sounds nice. Are you sure?"
"Yup. Now go floo and get Ryan down here. He is probably driving your mother nuts." She says.
"Ok." I go floo my mum. She brings Ryan then goes home saying she will see the baby tomrrow because tonight should just be us four. I pick up Ryan and walk through the halls.
"Daddy?" He asks.
"Yes Ryan?"
"Am I really a big brother?"
"Yes. You have a little sister." I tell him.
"Where did she come from?" He asks.
"Well, you know how mummy's tummy got very big?"
"Yes!" He says angrily. "I couldn't sit in her lap, and she couldn't pick me up." He grumbles.
"Well the baby was in mummy's tummy."
"Mummy ate a baby?!" He asks in horror.
"No. You see, when a mommy and a daddy love each other very much, the daddy gives the mummy a special seed, the mummy eats it, and then a baby grows in her tummy, then when the baby is big enough they come out." I tell him.
"Then why did mummy have to come to the doctor?" He asks. I hate all his questions.
"To make sure the baby was ok, and not too small."
"Oh. Ok. Does she have a name?" He asks.
"Yes her name is Katelyn. But you can call her Katy." I say as I set him down outside Ginny's room.
"Ok."
"Now, you need to be very careful, because mummy has some owies in her tummy ok?"
"Yes daddy. Will I get to hold her?" He asks.
"Yes, but you have to sit nice and you have to be very careful and gentle. She is very small, and can easily get hurt ok?" I tell him.
"Ok." He says, I then take him into the room.
"Mummy!" He says. And rushes to the bed.
"Careful!" I remind him. He slows down.
"Mummy? Can I meet, umm," He pauses.
"Katy." I whisper in his ear.
"Can I see Katy?" He asks standing beside the bed. He is very excited to meet her. That makes me smile.
"Yes. Do you want to sit beside mummy on the bed?"
"Yes please mummy."
"Ok." Ginny slides over a bit and I help Ryan onto the bed. He sits nicely. "Do you want to hold her?" Ginny asks him.
"Umm, OK!" He says. Ginny carefully slides the baby into Ryan's arms. He holds her low to his lap, his eyes study the small girl. "Mummy she is very pretty! She looks just like you!" He says after a while. "Mummy you must be VERY good at making babies." He says. We both chuckle. "Mummy when can I play with her?"
"She is still very small, but soon she will be able to crawl around."
"Oh." His face falls. "Mummy can I sing a song to her?" He asks.
"Sure you can."
He sings one of the lullabies Ginny sings to him, to the best of his ability. Ginny falls into tears. Even I get a little teary. It took, years. Seven years once we were married, but we finally have our family. We are complete. This moment will be one I will never ever forget.
