AN: Hello! Thanks for all the kind words and reviews! You guys are awesome.

Brilliant.

As Ron tiptoed into the Borrow's kitchen he saw his wife staring out the window drinking a glass of lemonade. He was quieter than a nargle in his approach, but as he got one step away from Hermione she spoke.

"Hi darling, how was your day."

"Bloody hel-" he started but quickly changed pace when Hermione widened her eyes at him "-icopter! How did you know it was me?"

"Bloody helicopter?" she said failing to hold back her laughter

"Um, yeah, that's what I meant" he said but his now pink ears proved otherwise.

"I'm sorry love, but you can't go around swearing with a house full of children. Imagine if one of them got into the habit, or worse, all of them." They both shuddered at the thought of at least five cursing children running amok the burrow.

"Not a nice thought," Ron admitted "but still you scared me woman! How did you know it was me? There is no possible way you knew! You didn't hear me or see me for that matter. It's impossible"

"Oh really?" Hermione said while arching her brow and pointing at her painfully swollen belly "Your son and/or daughter goes into a moving frenzy every time you walk into the room."

"Really?" he asked amazed

"Yes really, even if I don't see or hear you, the baby is always aware of your presence in the room. It's kind of a super power if you will. It's quite nice really." She finished and placed a kiss on his lips. "I love you" she muttered into his chest.

"I love you more" he said kissing her atop her head. He bent down to her belly "I love you too, you dancing monkey."

"Dancing monkey?" She inquired smiling. "First it was lounging panda, then it was cuddly cub, now its dancing monkey. Where in the world do you find these nicknames?"

"They sort of come to me" he said smirking "Come on Hermione let's go out back with the rest of them."

"Oh I'm sorry Ron, I can't. At least not until I finish the report" she said pointing at the dinner table where a folder donned with papers lay open.

"The report? Hermione come on! You are in a birthday party, Teddy'sbirthday party. You know how much he loves you."

"I'm sorry, but I must finish this first." She said squeezing him as much as she could with a huge belly "And you really shouldn't be the one coaxing me to abandon it, seeing as it's your fault I didn't finish it in time" she said in her this-is-an-essay-due-in-three-weeks-but-I-must-finish-it-today voice he learned to love during their school years.

"How is it my fault?" He asked like he would've if they had been back at Hogwarts.

Hermione said nothing; instead she took his hand and placed it on her bulging belly. "Do I need to explain any further?" She asked playfully.

"Um, no, that's quite all right... We'll just tell Teddy he must wait until you're done with a not very important report so he can open his presents." He said as the statement formed in his head. "Yeah, what kid wouldn't like that?" He grinned, thankfully it made sense plus it was a good argument.

"Oh that's low!" She said narrowing her eyes at him. "Really low, actually"

"Come on Hermione. You know you want to" he added in a singsong.

"Ron, please. I haven't the patience, or the time to keep prolonging this report. Plus I can't find my bloody quill. It's like it dissaparated!"

"You mean this quill?" He said removing it from her ear.

"Oh" was all she said has she blushed and grabbed it from his hands.

"And honey?"

"Yes?"

"Language"

"Ha ha. Now you mind, do you?" she said swatting him playfully

As she made her way back to the table Ron tried another time "What if I told you I got Teddy another gift? One that you'll like very, verymuch" He walked towards her chair and placed his arms around her.

"Ron," she almost whined "please, I'm almost done. Tell you what, by the time you are done with dinner I'll be done here. Okay?"

He placed another kiss on her head "Mmk" and walked over to the back garden where the food was being served.

About three minutes later he walked back into the dining room carrying two plates. "Figured you haven't eaten yet."

"Actually I did, being pregnant gets you food first." She smiled at him "But I'm rather hungry again." His eyes widened in mock surprise. Ever since she stared her second trimester her appetite had quadrupled. "Ha ha. What do you expect when I'm carrying your child?" Was always her retort

"I know, I'm sorry. Didn't mean for that to happen along with everything else." he constantly told her.

After several minutes Hermione put down her quill "All done. See that wasn't that bad!"

"No, it wasn't. Now, eat. What do you want to drink? Water, lemonade, butterbeer, pumpkin juice?" he said as he already started pouring the lemonade onto a goblet.

"Lemonade is fine, thanks." As she saw him walking over she smiled "If you knew why did you ask?"

"To make sure, of course." He replied automatically.

After she finished eating her second ration of the night they headed to the backyard where a very pregnant Ginny was whipping Teddy's face, while he tried to squirm away.

"Okay, okay, come on, its cake and presents time!" Ginny said.

They all huddled around the birthday boy and sang. Like every year Teddy smiled happily as he blew off his candles.

"Present time!" yelled George while handing Teddy a huge box of WWW products so he could continue to 'wreak havoc' as he said. And like every birthday he gave the other kids small bags so they could accompany the birthday boy and/or girl in the 'let's drive the parents crazy mission'. "This whole birthday thing is going to drive me out of business" he joked as he looked at the very pregnant Ginny and Hermione.

They all went around handing Teddy their presents and just when he was about to run off with the other kids Ron stopped him. "Hold up, you get an extra one. Now, Ted, this one is real special so I want you to care for it with all your might okay?" The boy nodded seriously.

"Okay then, here you go." Ron handed him a medium sized box which he tore open immediately.

Upon opening it his mouth dropped, a book laid on his palms, his mouth turned to a smile. Getting to Know Magical Creatures: A Visual Representation for Children by Hermione Weasleyshone in a wonderful gold print.

"It's a first edition." Ron said happily "Actually it's the first one, not even the author has one yet; a real one at least." He said looking at an awestruck Hermione.

"How did you...? When did you...?"

"I pulled some strings." he said smiling "It doesn't hurt when you're a famous Auror and the author's husband, you know" he added with a wink. "Now Teddy give it to Hermione so she can sign it."

Hermione took out her wand and etched her name on the cover page of the book. As the rest of the family eyed it she waddled over to Ron "You are brilliant, did you know?"

"I've heard it once or twice" he said smirking as he proceeded to place a kiss on her lips.

AN 2: Which pregnancy is this? That, my dear reader, is for you to decide. I thought I would be nice to leave it to interpretation, I hope you don't mind.

This is –most likely- going to be the last chapter I post before my uni, aka my forced hiatus, starts so I hope it does the fic some justice.

PS. Why lemonade? I think it's because I want some.

PPS. I'm going to be posting another one shot soon, so be on the lookout, if you want of course.

PPPS. Thanks again!
