Chapter 20

Change was slow but it was always going to be tedious. Hermione was slowly dealing with the death of her parents true Harry and his parents were helping her as well. Merlin had given Hermione the entire knowledge of magic which included every book ever written so true to say that she was keeping herself preoccupied. Harry had taken over the re-workings of the magical community. There was now a mandatory magical background check set in place with the ministry of magic to check to see if there was any dark magic checked in their roots. If anything was found then a extensive investigation was to be launched.

Harry had also helped raise the magical community financial aids. For one the ministry officials were paid by how much work they completed not by their status in a community. This alone brought the community into a new age of financial stability.

The new age is in full swing but this was not important to Harry sure he was helping the community and keeping everyone happy but to Harry there was only two things that Harry cared about. His wife and his unborn baby.

Arriving back at the manor he found Hermione in the library curled up on the settee with a book.

"You know I'm almost certain I fall in love with you all over again when I see you in your element" Harry said walking over to her

"And hello to you to" Hermione said kissing him

"How are you?" He asked

"Better, after the dream I had things are getting better Lily is a god send she's been helping me through it all so much" She replied taking his hand

"Yes my mum has that effect of helping people. Dad says that she was always like that trying to help everyone even when they didn't ask for it but needed it"

"That explains where you got your hero trait from" Hermione laughed

Harry laughed at kissed Hermione's hand

"How's our baby doing?" Harry asked changing the subject

"She's ok I'm certain she's moving in their" Hermione said rubbing her stomach with her free hand

"Wouldn't surprise me I'm certain she's like you never able to get comfortable until she has a good book" Harry laughed rubbing his hand along her stomach. As Harry moved along the now noticeable bump on Hermione's stomach he suddenly felt something push his hand. He jolted his hand back and Hermione burst out laughing

"Looks like she knows who her daddy is" She said between fits of laughter

Harry had no choice but join in the laughter as well. He was sure to face some ridicule for this in the near future.

They were interrupted by the arrival of Neville and Luna.

"What's the joke?" Neville asked

"Harry got scared because the baby kicked" She said

"Seriously Harry you can take on Troll's, Basilisks, Acromantula, Dragons and Voldemort but your own child scared you. Dude that's bad!" Neville said laughing

"ANYWAY! What can we help you with?" Harry said trying to get his ridicule off the topic of conversation.

"Well we've set a date for the wedding and we wanted you to be the first to know, the date for the wedding is going to be September 3rd" Luna said smiling

"Hey ill only have a week to go before the little one is born" Hermione said smiling as she hugged Luna

"Speaking of the little one when are you going to announce it to the world that the royal couple are expecting?" Neville asked

"Well we were thinking about this a few nights ago we want to tell the world on our times and so were going to release a story to the Quibbler and Daily Prophet with strict orders to print exactly what we say. Were planning to send the statement tomorrow" Hermione said with nods with Harry

A few hours later and Neville and Luna returned to their home. Harry and Hermione set to writing the statement

These words come from Harry James Potter and Hermione Jean Potter

We are optimistic with the current situation of events. Everything that has happened so far will lead to a brighter future. We want to stress that we are not trying to lead a dictatorship we believe in democracy and seeking your opinions in all current and future decisions you will find that soon you will receive new voting rights to vote on new bills to be made law and other political aspects.

However this is not the reason as to why we are sending out this statement. The one thing we always said is that we wanted to share news on our terms and on no one else's terms. So we are writing this statement to inform you all that the queen of magic Hermione Potter is with child.

We will not disclose any more information as it is not necessary for you to know. We will tell you that she is expecting a little girl.
