Chapter 3
Ginny placed the plates on the table for dinner thinking of the news Harry and Hermione brought. Talk of bad news. Death Eaters were on the loose again? She always thought that her children would be saved from all of these. She just hoped that it wouldn't get as bad as Harry's supervisor was predicting. She just couldn't imagine the possibility of losing someone of her family...again.
Hermione entered the room carrying the casserole just when loud voices came from the garden.
"They're here! They're okay!" Hermione screamed and dropping the casserole on Ginny's hands, she stormed out of the room, reaching then door just when Hugo opened it.
"Mum!" was all Hugo managed to say before his mother took him into her hug and held him tightly.
"Oh, Hermione that is so dramatic!" Ginny said sarcastically as she hugged Albus. Over his shoulder she saw that her other son and her husband were having some kind of an argument as they moved closer to the doorstep.
"What's wrong with you two?" she asked after hugging Lily too and kissing James' cheek.
"Nothing", they both said at the same time. Ginny raised her eyebrows looking at them. Then she shrugged and walked inside clutching Lily's hand.
James sighed relieved. His face had been restored to its normal condition with a simple wave of his father's wand. The boy looked at his father and grinned.
"Thanks dad", he said.
Harry gave his son an angry look that wiped the grin from his face.
"It's only because I don't want your mother to get more upset!" he said as they walked down the hall.
"Why is she upset?" asked James but he didn't get an answer since they've reached the dining room where everybody was gathered.
They didn't say anything to their kids that night. They were all so happy that they were back again that their parents decided not to ruin it. So the Weasleys left for their home when the dinner ended.
After a while Ginny fell asleep at the couch and Harry carried her upstairs to their bedroom after making sure that the kids went to bed as well. Her sleep was disturbed. She kept changing sides when at three in the morning she jumped out of her sleep. She couldn't remember the nightmare she saw but it had frightened her. She looked at her left for her husband, craving for his warm hug to take her fear away but he was gone. She got out of bed concerned.
She searched the entire house to find him sitting in the kitchen table in the dark. He had placed his head in his hands and he didn't notice her as she walked close to him.
"Honey?" she whispered making him jump.
"Oh, hey Gin", he whispered back looking up.
"Lumos!" she said and a small light emerged from her wand. "What on Merlin's name are you doing here all alone?"
"I couldn't sleep", he admitted as she sat on his lap and he put his arms around her waist.
"Are you concerned about what Matthias told you guys?"
"That plus you kept kicking like a horse!" he grinned.
"Shut up, I was having a nightmare!" she said pinching his arm.
"Ouch!" he complained. "What was it about?"
"Can't remember", she shrugged.
"What do you think about all of these?" he asked her quietly.
"Well, it sure does sound disturbing, doesn't it?" she said looking at him and when he didn't respond she continued. "Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I just wish that whatever this is it won't hurt our children".
"Don't worry", Harry smiled reassuringly. "I won't let anything happen to them".
"I know...but I have to worry, right? I'm the mum".
They laughed and then he stared into her beautiful face. It was amazing how just a look at her could provide him so much comfort. What was also amazing was that as the years went by she was becoming more and more beautiful if possible and despite the fact that he kept being the target of various madmen he couldn't believe how damn lucky he was to have her.
"Gin?"
"What?"
"I love you", he said and she smiled at the serious face he took.
"Well, of course you do! I'm adorable!" she stated kissing his cheek.
"That you are babe", he smiled back. She looked at his emerald eyes and as he pulled her into a deep, loving kiss, his strong arms holding her tight, all the fear and distress that nightmare had caused her was long gone. That made her think of something she had thought many times before: how damn lucky she was to have him.
Hermione had gotten up early this morning. She was determined to make a really nice breakfast for her kids, even if she knew that most of it would end up in her husband's stomach. She had just finished that thought when Ron came into the kitchen.
"What smells so good?" he asked and she rolled her eyes.
"Hands off Ronald! It's for the kids!" she said and Ron laughed.
"Honey, have you counted our kids lately? They're two not a dozen!" he said gesturing to all the food on the table.
Hermione only managed a grunt at her husband before all hell broke loose. With a bang and a flash of green light the window blew up.
"What the..." Ron said before Hermione drugged him down behind the bench, just as another loud bang was heard and glass flew everywhere.
"Ron, we're under attack!"
"YOU THINK?"
