Percy was confused, only the two oldest were married, and Fleur was pregnant, but here was this baby. He knew they would not have been baby-sitting, for they knew the danger they were in, and now they had so many concerns, and he had no idea whose baby it would have been. He looked down at her, knowing it was a little girl even without all of the pink, and he knew she was a Weasley, she had their coloring and some of their features. Penny being here and the baby girl both came to mind but it could not be, he would have known if his fiancé had been pregnant, she would have told him, Penny was too good a person not to have. He swore even after all he had put her through, she would have told him he was a dad.

Penny came into the room and took the baby up into her arms, and he knew without a doubt she was his, that was his little girl cradled by Penny. He knew he had screwed up, he knew he deserved what he had got, but to be hit with the news he was a daddy and that had been kept from him, was a painful blow for him. Penny had a look of concern in her eyes, and he could see all of his brothers were worried how he would react.

He looked at Penny "How could you not tell me I was a daddy? How could you not tell me you were pregnant with my baby?"

Penny looked up. "I did not find out I was pregnant till the day I was almost arrested for stealing from your brother. I fainted from the stress of questioning."

She reminded him Harry's pendant was found in her house, after an anonymous tip, his key having been used. She had been taken into custody, not arrested officially, but bound, and had undergone questioning from aurors. Moody had known her thanks to Harry, and had brought her to his office as soon as he found out, and cleared her name, and saw to new security for her, but she had been treated like a criminal.

She looked at her daughter and told Percy of finding out she was a month pregnant that day. She had found out after nearly facing prison, set up by her former fiancé, she was pregnant with his baby, and what should have been the happiest day of her life, had been marred.

She looked at the baby. "Fleur realized I was pregnant, saw through the charms I was using. Your brothers have been there for us."

Percy reached out to touch her but Penny pulled back. "My mother stole the pendant; she worked someone else's shift that night. I swear Pennyblossom."

She looked at him and he knew she was struggling with it, for she could hear the truth in his voice, and even after all he had done, she knew he was not bad. He stepped closer and reached out, and this time she allowed him to touch the baby, his little girl. He knew he should have been mad at her, and his brothers, for keeping her from him but he knew he had so much to make up for.

He touched her head. "Can I at least know my daughter's name, when she was born?"

Penny smiled slightly "I gave birth to her a few weeks ago, on September first. Her name is Lynette."

She had chosen to continue the Weasley tradition, for his brothers had helped her so much, her mother dying when she was little and her dad had not spoken to her since he learned. Lynette and Penny were living here for now, his brothers insisted for even with the house paid, she would likely have had to return to work right away for her maternity pay was not much to raise a baby on. She was renting out the house for now, and she and Lynette were in the rooms Bill and Charlie once had, on the same floor as Oliver and Charlie had the master bedroom and for now Fred was in his old bedroom.

Percy looked at her. "Penny I love you, I want to make this right. Pleas let me make this right. I want both you of you in my life. I miss you. I love you."

Penny motioned he could take the baby. "Lynette deserves to have her daddy. I want to believe you Perce. But I won't take you back till I know for sure."

There had been many times when she was pregnant she had wanted to take him back, she had wanted him and not one of his brothers by her side. Bill had seen Percy the day Penny gave birth to Lynette, he had been at the hospital, Fleur having her ultrasound to learn it was a boy. Penny gave birth here, Andromeda had delivered the baby for besides a healer she was a midwife once, for they had not wanted Molly or Percy to learn. Molly's anger over Fleur, finding out about the baby because of the hospital, made Penny even more worried for her two week old girl.

Percy kissed the baby. "I will do all to protect Harry and this family. And anything I need to do to convince you to let me be a family with you and Lynette."

Harry had gone for quidditch practice that weekend, happy to be playing for the snakes, and sure he would finally give Severus the cup he had been hoping for. Lucius and Severus were both happy to see the boys doing so well, and Lucius had never believed he would be so happy teaching but he was. He would leave likely when the boys graduated but he and Filius would be competing, for they both wanted Harry to consider apprenticing, Filius wanting to do history and Lucius to leave. Harry may have been the DADA star, but he had O's in all three, but Remus tended to think if either, his son would do charms. Harry had two passions, quidditch and oddly charms, a class he had actually used a lot in the DA, and if he continued to see Severus, it would be another push.

Dora was a bit surprised when she found some flowers in the sitting room, her husband was known to, but he always did tulips which he knew were her favourite, since she had grown up with her dad's muggle gardens. She noticed they were wild flowers, and she smiled when she noticed a card on the flowers, with Harry's name.

Remus came in when she was looking. "Winky brought them in. Said she was told they were for our son. Severus does know Harry loves wild flowers."

Dora snatched the card to take a peek. "You are not to tell our son. He will think I am turning into my mother."

Remus was about to laugh when his wife dropped the card, and after a scream she dropped, and would have hit the ground if he did not catch her. He noticed a burn like mark moving up her arm, and he quickly took her through the floo and called for Poppy, telling her what happened. She had him summon Severus who was running a test on the card, as Poppy tried to stop the burn, which had reached her shoulder and moving towards organs, when Lucius appeared.

Lucius heard what happened. "Percy was at the Burrow. He said his mother had her hands on the potions the other orderly was said to have stolen."

Remus explained what had happened and Severus looked up. "It definitely came from the hospital, and meant for Harry. We need to send word to Moody."

They knew they would have to look into Ron, there was a chance he may not have known what the potion was, but he likely had helped for Molly could not enter. The word was also sent to the Burrow, for even if Percy had warned them, they needed to be extra cautious. With a pregnant Fleur and a two week old baby, they needed to be careful, and Moody came through telling them Bill and Fleur were at the Burrow but he had sent aurors to check their house.

Poppy looked up. "I have reversed the burn and her arm will be back to normal, but the stress caused labour. I would send for her parents just in case."

Remus nearly collapsed, his son not due for a month. "Will he be okay?"

Poppy told him there was a chance she could stop labour, for the water had not broken, and she had administer potions. If she could not stop she would send for a magic incubator from the hospital in case, but the baby was not too premature, and he likely would not have any serious problems.

Severus looked at Lucius for he did not want to leave his friend "Can you get Harry from the pitch? He needs to know, and will want to be here for his dad."
