Chapter 27

It had been a month since Ron and Lucius had found out that Ron was pregnant. He had just woken up and threw up; he had only just made it to the bathroom before he did so. He got himself ready and headed out of his head 'girl' room, even though he was a boy, he had taken the position from Granger when she was expelled. It was located near Gryffindor tower. He walked out and gave a small wave to his little sister Ginny who was with a few of her friends as they went to the Great Hall for breakfast.

He skipped over heading to the Great Hall on the principle that the thought of food made him ready to expel the acid from his stomach. He knew that the best way he could deal with it was to go straight to Severus and ask for something for the nausea. He had noticed that Harry hadn't felt anything wrong with him at all. He was beginning to feel a little envious there, as he knew that it was morning sickness, having heard his mother talk about it. Yet, when he thought about it, he was glad that Harry hadn't gone through it. It meant that he wasn't having to fight it now. He sighed and made his way towards the dungeons, almost as pale as Severus. Ginny watched him head that way, a scowl on her face. She excused herself from her friends and walked back up the stairs. Ron didn't notice as he made his way to Severus' quarters and knocked on the door.

Ginny walked up the main staircase and went into Gryffindor tower. She got out some parchment and wrote a letter to her mother, the day that she had seen Ron go into that hotel with Lucius Malfoy, she had wondered what had gone on, and maybe that Malfoy had done something to her brother. Then when he appeared ill when she just saw him, she became concerned; he looked really pale. She finished writing a short note saying that she thought Ron might be really ill as he looked very pale when she saw him.

Down at Severus' rooms, Harry was opening the door. He was rubbing his eyes, having woken up four minutes earlier to take care of the kids. He was beginning to slow down a bit, but taking longer to wake up was nothing to be concerned about. He looked at Ron and stepped aside, letting him in. Ron walked in, watching Harry. "Did I wake you?" Harry shook his head.

Harry plodded to the couch and plopped down; he just curled up and began to drift off back to sleep. Ron smiled, that was until he stomach rolled and he had to rush through the bedroom where Draco and Severus were still fast asleep and into the bathroom, where he promptly slammed the door and threw up into the porcelain bowl. The slamming of the door woke the two occupants of the bed up; they noticed that Harry was not with them so they assumed that it was him that had slammed the bathroom door shut.

Harry woke up when the door slammed and stood up, walking into the bathroom, muttering about noisy guests. He saw Draco and Severus up and they noticed him. He yawned again and went to the bed and sat down. They looked at him. "If that's not you in the bathroom, then who would it be?" Draco asked. Harry only blinked at him for a moment. He was still waking up a bit. The slam had managed to wake him up quiet a bit on that one.

"Erm. Oh it's Ron." Harry yawned as he cuddled up against the blond. "He came in not long ago, he ran into the bathroom before he could even say hello. I think he has morning sickness Sevvie," Harry mumbled as he gave a jaw-popping yawn. Harry hadn't realized what he had said properly before he fell asleep against his blond mate.

Draco looked at Severus, an eyebrow raised. "Well, I feel a bit sorry for him." Severus climbed out of bed and walked into the main room, pulling out an anti-nausea potion for when Ron left the room. He sat down again, noticing that Draco was a little trapped by the fact that Harry had him pinned down. Draco definitely didn't fight it on the simple basis that he loved Harry and it was a fact that he really liked cuddling Harry.

Severus rolled his eyes at Harry as he stood in the doorway to his room. "Seems as though you will be busy for a while Draco." He smirked at the young blond. The door to the bathroom opened quietly. Ron walked out looking pale and tired. Ron looked at the two conscious occupants in the room. He smiled slightly in apology. "Do not worry about it Ron, here is a potion that will help you." Severus said to the young man as he walked over to him and handed him the anti-nausea potion vial.

Ron looked at it for a moment before uncorking it and downing the contents. He made a face and looked at Severus. "Thank you sir." Severus chuckled at the face that Ron had made and led him out into the living room. He then walked back into the room and changed, joining Ron once again. "I saw that Harry went to sleep." Severus only nodded; it was an obvious thing, meaning that he wasn't going to respond loudly. Ron sat on the couch. He knew that Draco would get Harry up quickly. Draco had that tendency when they had guests, even if it was just Ron that was their guest. Severus sat in an armchair across from Ron.

Severus watched the young man wring his hands nervously within his lap. "Your morning sickness just started now?" He asked the young red head, who nodded in answer. "Did anyone see you? As they would know straight away that you were not well," he then asked, he noted that Ron paled even more as he nodded his head in answer. "Who saw you?"

"My sister, Ginny," Ron said. He continued to wring his hands as he looked down at his lap. He shook his head. He didn't want to think about a lot of what Severus was saying. He hoped that nothing bad would happen. He sighed and stood up. "I need to go. Thanks for the potion." He then ran out before Severus could say anything more. He was now even more worried than before. Severus watched him run off. He hoped that nothing went wrong for Ron.

Mrs. Weasley was in the kitchen of the Burrow, she had just finished washing up the dinner plates that she had used for dinner, she was the only one in the Burrow at that moment as her husband was at the ministry, and he was once again working late. The rest of her family was either at Hogwarts or at work. An owl flew in through the open kitchen window and landed on the back of one of the chairs, waiting for the motherly witch to take the letter from his leg. Molly soon took the letter and quickly read the contents.

Mother,

I saw Ron this morning and he looked horrible. He appeared to be quite pasty and sick looking. When we got to the Great Hall, he just walked passed it, the smell almost appeared to make him sick. Also, I saw him in Hogsmeade the other day; he was walking to a hotel with Lucius Malfoy. Anyways, hope you're well.

Ginny

Molly Weasley at first went pale when she read about her youngest son being ill, then she went red in anger as she read about him being near Lucius Malfoy. She slammed the letter down on the kitchen counter that she was standing by and stormed out of the room. She went over to the fireplace and grabbed some floo powder and flooed to The Three Broomsticks and headed for Hogwarts.

Over at Hogwarts, Ron was sitting outside on the steps of the castle, relaxing after a taxing day of school. He was slightly envious of Harry not having to attend, but he knew that the stunt that twins pulled with leaving and not taking their NEWTs would not fly with him. He could only sigh in an unhappy way at the thought of doing something he wasn't too particularly keen on. He finally shook his head and got ready to go into the castle when he saw his mother walk up the path directly for him. Ron's blue eyes widened as the sight of the Weasley matriarch. He knew in that instance that Ginny had sent a letter home, and it wasn't good news. His mother looked positively angry.

"Ronald Weasley, you have some explaining to do!" Molly Weasley shouted for all to hear, though that wasn't a lot, only a few students were milling around the grounds as they headed back inside. She stormed up to him and grabbed him by the ear and started to pull him along to the headmaster's office, knowing that Albus would allow her to talk to her youngest son within the privacy of his office.

"Mum! Let go of my ear," Ron complained. He was being dragged away and he wanted to get away. He bit his lip. "Mum, please let go of me." He closed his eyes as she pulled on his ear. The two were walking through Hogwarts and heading towards the headmaster's office. They reached the gargoyle and Molly apparently knew the password, it was common for the Order members, which was a while ago, but they still knew. They began to walk up the moving staircase.

"Come in Molly, Mr. Weasley," came Albus' voice as they reached the closed door to his office. Molly walked in still pulling Ron by the ear. When the door closed behind them both she finally let go, but as she did so she pushed him violently into one of the chairs that almost tipped back enough to throw him out. "What can I do for you both?" He asked them as he frowned slightly as he watched mother and son.

"Can we please have a moment alone headmaster? I need to talk to my son," Molly replied. Albus gave them a look, but nodded and walked off. He left the room, leaving Ron to his mother's wrath. "What were you thinking going into a hotel with Lucius Malfoy?" Ron's eyes went wide. He had no idea how she found that out, and in a sense, he was worried. He knew for a fact that this confrontation would be stressful, and he couldn't have the stressed placed upon him. He only hoped that he wouldn't have to worry.

Ron closed his eyes trying to think of what to tell his mother, he knew that she would pick up a lie if he told one. "Mom, I… its hard for me to say." He opened his eyes and looked up at his mother, noting that her eyes were burning with anger. "Please mum you have to understand, Lucius is my mate."

"Mate? You have no mate Ronald Weasley. You're meant to be with a woman like a proper Weasley." She was bent over, in his face. He wasn't looking too hot. He was worried his mother would flip out on him, and it was worrying him greatly. He wished that Molly could understand the truth, but she appeared to be in one of her self controlling moods once again.

"I am no longer a little boy that is meant for you to control. I am a grown man, and I have found my mate. We have bonded, and it will not be broken by anything, I'm sorry mum, I know I have always been different from the other Weasleys, I knew there was something bigger waiting for me out in the world and I finally found it. All my life until I went with Lucius I have not felt whole, like I was not all there, now I do I feel whole and complete. Do not try to take it away," Ron said as forcefully as he could.

Molly's face went red. "You will not speak to me like that Ronald Bilius Weasley. I am your mother and you will do as I say." She placed her hands on her hips and frowned at him in a manner that always made him feel bad when he was younger. The only difference was Ron looked her square in the eyes, with no remorse, and no fear. He knew he was where he belonged, and that's all that mattered to him. He crossed his own arms and stood up, towering over her by a head. It was one of those moments where he was glad to be as tall as his father.

"Then act like my mother and be happy for me, I have found the other half of my soul and you are trying to take it away from me. Not to mention that you are trying to get me to deny a part of my self. I do not need the stress you are causing me mum," Ron said as he unfolded his arms and brought one hand to his stomach unconsciously rubbing it as it was paining him slightly.

Molly watched him. "If you're under any stress, you brought it upon yourself." She grabbed Ron by the shoulder and pulled him close. "You're not doing your job as a Weasley." Ron lifted his other hand and pushed Molly away. She backed up and ran ever so lightly into the desk. Ron then walked to the door while she was still stunned at his actions. "Get back here Ronald." Ron stopped, his hand on the doorknob. He looked over his shoulder at her. His blue eyes were burning with anger.

"I will not be a Weasley for long if Lucius has his way. Then again, why would I want to be a Weasley if all you do is stifle you family, and stop them from being who they are. I am the mate of Lucius Malfoy; do not make me choose, you will not like the out come," Ron said forcefully as he walked out of the office and down the stairs, passing Dumbledore on the way, he could feel his mother following him.

Ron ignored his mother's presence. He knew that he would be seeing Lucius quite soon. As he made his way to the entrance hall, he could feel his mother moving a lot quicker to try and catch up with him. This made Ron even happier for his long legs. When he got to the entrance hall, he saw the doors opening. In walked Lucius, much to Ron's happiness. He completely ignored her and threw himself at the man, hugging him. Lucius looked down at Ron and held him, wondering what was wrong with his mate. It didn't take long, as moments later he heard a shout that told him the problem was one Molly Weasley. He looked up at the woman, glaring slightly at the expression on her face.

"Malfoy, get away from my son!" She shouted louder. "Ronald get away from him, I told you not to go to him, I told you," she shouted, as she got closer to the couple. She got there and pulled him away from Lucius' arms. "DO not touch my son again, Malfoy," she said with a sneer that would have made Severus Snape applaud at how well she pulled it off.

Ron pulled out of Molly's arms and went back to Lucius, facing her. Lucius slipped his arms around the waist. "I can't stay away. He's my mate and carrying my child." Molly's eyes widened even more at the pronouncement of her son being pregnant. It wasn't possible, unless the person was mated to specific types of magical creatures. She walked up to them, but Lucius stepped back, still holding Ron. "No madam, Ron is my mate, and I will protect him from everyone, including you."

"He is mated to a magical creature," she murmured to herself. "You are not as pureblooded as you make others believe," she said. "Ron does not belong to you, he is a Weasley and he will follow Weasley tradition and marry a woman, and settle down and have children the natural way."

Lucius laughed. "Too late for that your royal pain in the arse. He is already mated to me, of his own free will. He will stay with me." Molly looked ready to kill, but Lucius only looked calm, watching her intently to see what she would do. He knew that this confrontation was needed quite badly. Ron shrunk into Lucius more, whimpering ever so slightly. Lucius looked at the back of Ron's head and noticed that with the shrinking, it seemed to be more of a pain thing than anything else. He made Ron face him. Ron didn't meet his eyes at all.

"Lucius, please, I want to get out of here, somewhere quiet." Came Ron's voice, Lucius could hear the pain in it. Lucius looked into Ron's blue eyes and could see the pain within them. Ron looked into Lucius' eyes silently pleading with him to take him somewhere away from his mother. Ron then buried his head within Lucius neck and held onto to his lover.

Lucius held onto Ron and kissed the top of his head. "Of course." He then gave Molly a look and took Ron off to Severus' rooms. Ron willingly followed, happy to get away from his overbearing mother. Only problem was, Molly wasn't about to be dissuaded that easily. She was following them, but was following at a distance. Lucius ignored Molly's presence all together, knowing that she wasn't likely to be able to follow them that easily. The woman was acting like she was insane. That was something that Lucius decided Ron never needed to be around ever again.

Lucius knocked on the edge for the portrait that led into Severus quarters. He waited a moment; he could sense Molly Weasley behind them as the portrait opened up, revealing Harry. "Lucius what's wrong, why are you here?" He said as he looked up to Lucius, he then looked down to his best friend cradled gently in Lucius arms. "What's wrong with Ron? Is he okay?" He said as he moved out of the way and let Lucius and Ron through and into the living room. He closed the portrait before Molly could make it into the room, although Harry didn't know she had tried as he did not see her.

Ron looked down, not looking into anybody's eyes. Lucius made Ron sit on the couch and kneeled in front of him, kissing his forehead lightly. "That woman he calls his mother did this. She has apparently found out about us being together, not that I know how." He gently placed one of his hands on Ron's stomach and started speaking quietly. Nobody knew it, except Severus, but Lucius was a trained healer, he had never gotten a chance to use those abilities on the basis that his parents thought what he had learned was useless. Whatever it was that he was whispering, Ron began to relax quite well. Harry sat next to his friend, focusing on him. He hoped that his friend would be okay.

"Molly, she knows, oh no. He was so frightened about this happening. He knew she would try and separate the two of you. You may be mated Lucius, but his mother is a force to be reckoned with, he has gone against his family tradition and ways by being with you, a part of him wants to obey family law, but he loves you Lucius, don't give up on him. He will need your help to stay strong; she will try anything to get him away from you. If I was you, I would marry as soon as you can, that way she will not be able to separate you," Harry told the older wizard.

Lucius continued to look Ron in the eyes. There was worry in his eyes, but he was remaining calm. Lucius didn't remove his hand from where it rested, allowing Ron to feel that closeness and also help the spell keep him in the state of mind he was currently in. "I know. I was planning on making it soon anyways. I was going to talk about that today." Ron perked up at that. He had been listening silently, trying to stay away from everyone else. He felt that there was nothing for him to say. Yet, he was now intrigued at the turn of conversation, him marrying Lucius?

"I would like you see you happy father, and I know Ron would make you happy. To make it official in the eyes of the Wizarding world would be a good thing before the baby is born. It will also keep Ron safe and away from his mother's influence about trying to split you both up, though I think we should get Ron's opinion on the matter before you start making plans," Draco told his father as he walked into the room with Aislin who had just finished a feed.

Ron looked at Draco and then back at Lucius. "When were you thinking about having us married?" Ron asked. He was looking deep into Lucius' silver eyes, seeing the honesty in them. He leaned forward, startling Lucius a bit and kissed him. "Because anytime works for me," he whispered to Lucius when he pulled back. Harry got off the couch and walked over to Draco, taking Aislin from the Veela. He tickled her slightly, listening to her giggle in a cute manner from the tickling. The giggling went unnoticed by Lucius and Ron.

"I shall arrange the wedding of the century for us, in a month, how does that sound to you? We could make it earlier or a little later, it is up to you Ron, Lucius said as he smiled happily. Ron leaned his head against Lucius'. "Do you know Ron, I love you. I really do and I would be honored if you would marry me," he said softly as he pressed a gentle kiss against Ron's lips.

Ron smiled and kissed him. "I would prefer a quiet ceremony with our family soon." He only considered Draco, Harry, Severus, Aislin, Conner and Lucius his family. The rest of the members of his biological family weren't really his anymore. He snaked his arms around Lucius' neck and kissed him again. Harry chuckled and dragged Draco into the bedroom, knowing Severus was in his lab. Ron and Lucius needed time alone.
