Authors Note: Thank you for all of my reviews as always! Ok, this is the final chapter, I hope you enjoy it!
"Hermione, where do you want me to put the cake?'' asked Ron as he carefully came out into the Burrow garden supporting a huge broomstick birthday cake.
"Oh, um, here will do fine,'' said Hermione gesturing vaguely towards somewhere on the long table.
It was Theo's 5th birthday party and Mrs Weasley had insisted that they had a party at the Burrow. She counted Theo as her own grandson and loved spoiling him equally as much as all of the others. Hermione was happy to have finally married Ron and be a part of the Weasley clan.
"Hey Mione!'' said Ginny hugging her sister in law.
"Hey Ginny, it's so good to see you! Where's Harry and Sirius?''
"Oh, well Harry is off somewhere with someone and Sirius is probably being smothered by mum! Hello Theo, happy birthday!''
"Thank you!'' he exclaimed before trying to rush off somewhere.
Hermione caught him by the waist and picked him up.
"Theo sit down, we have to cut your cake!'' Theo obediently sat down in a large chair and stared in awe at his cake.
"Ok, everyone, it's time to cut the cake!''
Everyone gathered around the table and Theo grinned from ear to ear. He loved all the attention! Everyone began to sing happy birthday and Ron lighted his candles with is wand. Hermione kneeled down beside him and kept giving him kisses and cuddles. He blew out his candles and took the knife.
"Theo, give mummy the knife!'' exclaimed Hermione quickly taking it from Theo.
"But mummy I want cake!''
"Yes, yes Theo, hold on a second!'' said Hermione who was focussing on a now wailing Sirius.
"Is he hungry?'' she asked Ginny who was balancing the one year old on her hip and trying to calm him down.
"I have no idea! He can't need changing because we did it just before we came...''
"And he doesn't smell funny!'' grinned Harry as he took his son from Ginny and gave him a bottle.
"Oh, so he was hungry then!'' said Mrs Weasley coming up behind them. "He gets it from you Ginny, you always used to drink a lot of milk when you were his age...''
"Yes thank you mum, but I doubt anyone wants to hear about that!'' said Ginny loudly over her mother.
Ron sniggered loudly and put his arm around Hermione.
"I don't know why you're so happy, there are plenty of stories I could tell about you like the time when you, Fred and George took a de tour in Diagon Alley...''
"Yeah alright alright, you've made your point!'' exclaimed Ron blushing.
"Hermione!'' yelled Fred and George suddenly.
Hermione quickly turned around, just in time to see her son dunk his head into his cake.
"THEO!!!''
"Honestly!'' exclaimed Hermione as she sat down next to Ron on the grass. They were all still at the Burrow and she had just managed to clean up her son. Ron smirked,
"So you sorted him out then!''
"Yes, eventually, I had to chase him around the entire house first with no help from you what so ever!'' she said glaring at Ron playfully.
"Yeah well, you had it covered!''
And he kissed her softly on the lips. They watched as the sun slowly went down.
"Viktor didn't call or anything did he?'' Ron asked Hermione. He felt her grow tense.
"No. Not even a card. Before I'd have thought it was normal but now, I mean, he promised that he'd be a good dad!''
"Hey, don't worry about it Mione. This is Viktor we're talking about!''
"Yeah, I know. It just would have been nice to see him do something worth while for his son. But I don't care anymore. Theo already has the best dad in the world, and that's you!''
Ron blushed a little and continued to watch the sunset going down. Hermione rested her head on his shoulder and took a deep breath.
"Ronald, I have to tell you something,''
Ron looked down at her with a puzzled look on his face.
"What's wrong?''
"Nothing! Nothing's wrong, it's just that I have to tell you something...''
"Hermione, please just say it!'' said Ron impatiently.
"Ok, Ron, I'm pregnant!''
Ron was motionless for a few minuets while he took it all in. His face was blank and Hermione held her breath. Then, suddenly Ron jumped up and ran around the garden with his shirt on his head.
"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I'M GONNA BE A DAAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'' He sang. Hermione laughed at him and after five minuets he collapsed next to her.
"Feel better now?'' she asked him.
"Oh, yeah, much better!'' he panted.
"I love you Hermione!''
"I love you too Ronald! You will help me explain everything to Theo won't you?''
"But I'm not too good with these things!''
"Ronald!''
"Do I...''
"Yes.''
"But can't I...''
"No.''
"But why can't you...''
"RONALD!''
"Sorry!''
