CHAPTER 2
Ginny nervously paced around on the floor of her mother's living room. Her hands were trembling; it had been a week since Harry caught her having sex with other man in their bedroom. It'd been a week and she hadn't seen Harry, making her restless. She couldn't afford to lose Harry; he was her everything. She definitely couldn't lose him and would do anything to insure he didn't leave her side. How could she continue to live if he decided to end their marriage? It was a mistake; Eric was a mistake. She never should've brought that bastard into her house. She was just lonely and was swayed by the sweet words and promises he made spur of the moments.
It'll be alright, everything will be alright. The youngest Weasley took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. Harry will forgive me, he will definitely forgive me. It's his nature.
After Harry left, Ginny immediately went to the Burrow and confided everything to her parents, begging them to help. She knew her parents were deeply disappointed with her and livid with her even. But she also knew that they loved her even more and would forgive and help her get through everything. They would help her convince Harry to forgive her.
It was almost two o'clock. Harry would be arriving any moments. Just two days ago he owled Molly a letter telling her that he'd be coming to pick up James. Ginny was disappointed Harry didn't mention anything about her in the letter. But, at the same time, she couldn't wait any longer. She needed to see Harry. She needed him to take her back.
"James, eat up. You want to grow big like your father don't you?" Ginny turned to the voice and saw her mother trying to get the three years old to eat some porridge. Gritting her teeth, she walked toward the duo, scowling at her mother.
"Mother, how many times do I have to tell you? Do not baby him around!" she exclaimed, trying to stay clam while turning her piercing glare toward her son. "You will stop acting like a spoil brat and eat your lunch!"
"Ginny, that's enough. He just recovered from his fever," Ron, the youngest Weasley male scolded, trying to stop his sister from venting her frustrations on the innocent toddler. He always had a soft spot for his nephew since he had no children himself. He noticed that recently his sister had been tensed about something, but she hadn't told him anything. Whatever it was, he didn't want her to drag James into it along with her.
"Don't lecture me about how I should teach my son, Ronald!" Ginny snapped, glaring at her brother. She really wished Ron was not here right now, but that nosey big brother of hers, Bill, had to tell everyone to gather today and pressed her to tell the rest of the Weasley clan the truth. Obviously, she hadn't told them yet.
"Don't be rude to your brother, Ginny. Now, come on grandson of mine, eat the porridge please?" Molly Weasley sighed again when her grandson shook his head.
Slap!
"Ginny!" Ron and Molly yelled in unison as Ginny slaped her three year old son as if she had lost her mind. James ducked his head while slowly rubbing his face with his little hand, yet he didn't scream or cry, noticeably trying to hold back his tears.
"Have you lost your bloody mind?! He's only three years old!" Ron bellowed. Not wanting James to be harmed further, Ron quickly scooped him up and took him away from her.
"Bring him back this instant! You can't tell me how to discipline my own son!" Ginny screamed at her brother.
"What happened?" Charlie appeared, asking. Everyone was alerted by the loud argument and started to gather around them in the kitchen.
"Ask her! She has lost her mind." Ronald Weasley fumingly looked at his sister. "How could she slap her own son? Even his mother, Molly never slapped him before. Is this her way of teaching her kid?"
"She's just having a rough time Ron, let her be," Arthur soothed, gently patting his son's shoulder and sighing.
"What? What are you saying dad? Even if she's having a rough time, she can't treat James like that."
Ron stared wide eyes at his father, frustrated by his lack of reaction. Looking around, he noticed everyone except for the twins and his wife had the same reaction. No anger, just pity toward Ginny. Bloody hell!
"Hello everyone."
A chorus of "Harry!" filled the room. Harry nodded slightly to everyone then fixed his stare on Ginny.
"We need to talk. Meet me in your room upstairs." Harry emotionlessly uttered to his wife.
"No. You can say anything you want right here, right now." Ginny quickly replied. She couldn't be alone with him; she needed her family's support. Harry narrowed his eyes, yet said nothing.
"Very well. Sign this." Harry calmly put a file of documents on the dining table. Ginny dreadfully picked the document up and, as she read the content, her face immediately turned ashen. Ron, Hermione, and the twins looked curiously at the couple. They knew something big was happening, yet were left in the dark.
"Harry, please, you cannot do this! Don't do this,." Ginny pleaded, throwing the documents away.
"Harry, what happened?" Hermione demanded, tired of being left out.
"Don't waste my time, Ginevra. Just sign it, and everything will be done." Harry stated coldly, ignoring Hermione's question and staring at his soon to be ex-wife.
"No! I will never sign it. It was just one mistake!" Ginny protested, shaking her head profusely and defiantly.
"Harry dear, it will not do any good if both of you divorce. James needs his mother." Molly remarked, urgently trying to talk her son in law out of moving forward with a divorce.
"What is this? What is happening? Can someone tell us?" The usually cheerful twin turned serious and agitated, surprised by Harry's sudden demand of divorce from their little sister.
"Ask her." the raven answered indifferently, not looking at the twins.
"Harry, it's just a slipup. I still love you, and nothing is going to change that."
"Is your love for me so little that you can bring other men and have sex with them in our bed?!" Harry snapped. Almost immediately, gasps from Ron, Hermione, and the twins echoed around the room. Ron slumped himself into a chair while Hermione and the twins stared wide eyed at Ginny.
"I will take custody of James. Do whatever you want with the documents, but from now on you are no longer my wife."
Harry calmed himself then spoke in a stern tone. Ginny crashed to the floor, lifeless. Molly hurriedly kneeled beside her daughter, trying to comfort her while wiping her own tears with the sleeve of her blouse.
"Harry-" Arthur tried, only stopping when Harry raised his hand to cut him off.
"I've thought about this thoroughly and will never regret this decision. If you still think of me as family and still want to see James again, then please don't say anything anymore." Harry said simply, leaving no room for discussion.
"I will not let you takes James away! He is my son, too!" Ginny screamed, suddenly getting up and snarling viciously.
"I will have him. End of discussion."
"Then I demand all of the fortune inside the Potter vault." Ginny request surprises everyone, no one thought that will be her demand, and everyone including Harry thought that she will fight for James's custody harder. Ginny smirk sadistically, she knows she can demand that and not even the Ministry can argue with that since it's an established law that if a couple divorced, the wife can demand half of the fortune that her husband has and probably gets more if she didn't get the custody of their children. With this, she's sure Harry will be begging her to take him back as soon he taste the hardship of living penniless.
"Very well." Harry callously replies. Without any words, the raven walks to Ron who has not said anything besides sitting on the chair dumfounded with James sitting on his laps.
"Come on buddy. Let's go." Harry called, stretching his hand out toward his son.
James obediently took his father's hand only to be picked up and cradled in the crook of his father's neck. Harry walked to the fireplace and flooed away with his son, leaving the Weasley clan standing speechless. He wouldn't speak to Ginny for a long time.
