A Forgotten Moment
Chapter 4- Announcements
The next day was busy for Harry and Severus because they forgot about their appointment with Poppy. When they woke they found a very upset Medi-witch waiting for them. "Where were you yesterday?" She asked.
"I'm sorry that we for got about our appointment, but I was too upset to remember it. Yesterday was a Hogsmead day and I went to buy Christmas gifts for people and had a run in with Ron and Hermione. They were quite upsetting with how they acted with my situation even though they don't know anything." Harry answered.
"Have you thought of announcing the pending birth of your baby?" Poppy asked.
"No I wanted to wait until after we were bonded. Then we could announce it all at once." Harry said.
"Harry you should think about having both announced tonight. I know you are planning on eating in your rooms and studying there, in the library or with Albus since it is just theory but for yours and the baby's safety have it announced tonight." Poppy said.
"Ok Poppy. I'll have Albus announce it tonight before supper that away if there is any negativity I can go to my rooms and eat." Harry said.
"I'll see if Albus will let you eat with me at the head table tonight incase of bad reactions." Sev said.
Poppy nodded and started the exam. "Everything looks good Harry. You should probably eat more vegetables and a little more red meat but everything looks perfect. Next month we should get a better look at the baby and get some pictures of it. You should also stay away from stress too. I will see you in a month if you don't have any problems." She said.
"Thank you, Poppy." Harry said as they left.
When they got back to their rooms Sev flooed Albus and asked him to make an announcement before supper. They made plans for their bonding ceremony while they waited for suppertime. They would both wear emerald green robes with gold trim. They would write their own vows and promises to each other. While it would be a private ceremony they would celebrate it with friends with a feast.
It was time to head to the Great Hall. When they got to the Great Hall's doors Sev turned and told Harry to follow him up to the head table. Almost everyone was in the Great Hall when Harry and Sev reached the head table. Hermione and Ron were looking at Harry curiously. Albus stood up and announced, "Students it is my great pleasure to announce that Harry Potter and Severus Snape are going to be bonded on Christmas Eve. I am happy to also announce that Harry is a little over 2 months pregnant."
"You are nothing but a little whore. You should have died when You Know Who did." Ron shouted angrily.
Harry was upset and shouted back "Your nothing but a coward Ron. You can't even say a name. His name is Voldemort and what's more is that you hid while I was fighting him. Thank you for ruining one of the happiest moments of my life." Harry turned and left the Great Hall.
Sorry this was a bit short. Hopefully the next chapter will be longer with getting ready for a bonding and the actual bonding.
