Chapter 10 Hogwarts express
It had only been a week since Ron had been taken away to Azkaban. I think this was only the second time I had even thought of him. Harry was very good at distractions. I had officially moved into his beautiful apartment filled with his artwork. I still felt bad that I hadn't ever noticed his love for art. I woke up a few days after Ron's incarceration and found Harry painting away in his studio. He was still shirtless from the night before and had a smear of black on his back, most likely from where he had been scratching. He was focused on his work so I stayed in the door way so I wouldn't disturb him. His hand flew across the paper and would pause every few minutes as if it was calculating on its own. It was fascinating to watch and I felt transfixed.
"Holy shit!" I shook myself out of my daze in time to see Harry fall flat on his ass. He managed to splash pant all over the room, including me.
"Nice going." I said with a frown when I looked at the room. Harry had thought ahead and covered the walls with plastic. Apparently there wasn't any magic allowed when he was painting.
"Gosh, Mione, you scared the shit out of me!" Harry exclaimed as he got to his feet. I giggled and he came over to kiss me.
"Have you heard from Ginny?" I asked him, expecting it when he tensed up.
"No one knows where she is Mione." He said softly. I nodded sadly and left him standing there while I went to get dressed.
Harry's pov
We had looked everywhere! I wish I knew where Ginny was but I couldn't find her or anyone that had seen her. The Healer said he had to discharge her because she hadn't shown signs of suicide. I had check out all the ex boyfriends and best friends but they hadn't seen her since school. I couldn't think of anyone she would go to.
Unless, but no she wouldn't. Remus? He hadn't seen that much of the family since he told Molly and Arthur he was Gay, but I always wanted to see him. Would Ginny go there because she knew her parents wouldn't ever go to see him? I didn't want Mione to get her hopes up so I went to find a shirt and leave without her.
To say he was surprised when I flooed was an understatement. He dropped the glass he was holding and a little girl ran from the room.
"Rose, Honey come back." He called after her, but then he turned back to me.
"Well hello Harry." I smiled and gave him a huge hug. I couldn't believe I hadn't visited him in two years!
"I should have come sooner and for an entirely different reason." I said once we let go.
"She is upstairs and I will hold you to that Harry." Remus said and returned to clean up his glass. I nodded my thanks and raced up the stairs. I stopped when I heard Ginny giggling.
"Mommy! Daddy Remus dropped his cup and it made a huge noise." I felt my eyes widen. Daddy Remus?
"Well wasn't he just clumsy. Rose, why did he drop the cup?" Ginny asked the little girl named Rose.
"That would be my bad, Gin." I said as I stepped in the room. Ginny screamed and then flushed.
"Merlin kill me why don't you!" she said indignantly. I laughed and sat down next to her.
"Brown hair?" I asked her.
"I changed it when she was born. It's naturally my color. And her eyes are the same as Ron's so I changed them to. When she is 18 she can change back herself." Ginny said simply.
"We were looking for you. Hermione too. We miss you and your mother has been a mess." I told her.
"I'm just trying to fake a story for her. I will not tell her who Rose's father is. It's so wrong, Harry. The bastard doesn't know she even exists. I was pregnant a second time, but I killed the baby. There is always the chance something could go wrong since Ron is my blood brother. I didn't want to take the chance again." She said softly, and I saw tears glistening on her face.
"Ginny, I am so sorry I didn't realize. I'm sorry no one knew he was hurting you." Ginny nodded and smiled weakly.
"Tell mum and Hermione that I will be around with two days." She said and I took that as a polite way of telling me to get out.
"Okay Gin, and If I can except it you know Molly will and Hermione too." I said and left her sitting there.
I said a quick goodbye to Remus and promised to come visit soon. I needed to go tell Hermione everything.
Hermione's pov
Harry was gone when I came out of the shower. I looked around but he was gone before even cleaning up the mess he made. I sighed and went to see if he went to the burrow.
Just as I was about to leave he showed up gasped and looked happy.
"You found her!" I gasped and he nodded. I jumped up and down a few times before jumping into his arms.
"Where?" I asked.
"Remus's place." He whispered while his hands traveled down my waist. I felt too happy to stop him.
"Of course, Molly and Arthur wouldn't ever look there." I said, thinking Ginny was a genius.
"She said she needs two days then she will be home. Remus won't let them take off." I frowned at that sentence.
"Them?" I repeated. He flushed and looked at the wall behind me.
"Her daughter Rose." He mumbled. I gasped aloud and he smirked.
"She called Remus 'daddy Remus'. It was very funny." Harry said softly. I felt irritated that he had gotten to see her before me.
"What does she look like?" I demanded, I wanted to know every detail.
"Ginny changed her appearance, but she has your hair and green eyes. I know it's very strange. She had Ron's eyes and the red hair when she was born but she changed it." Harry explained.
"She probably looks like what our daughter would." Harry smiled and nodded shyly.
"Would you like that?" I said and he laughed at me, or with me, I usually can't tell. He nodded when he saw I was serious.
"Well then I have good news." I said and he looked a little afraid.
"We are having a baby!" I continued and his face relaxed into one of pure joy.
"Ginny will come home in two days?" I asked to make sure. He nodded and I kissed him fully on the mouth.
7 years later…
"Rose come on you'll miss the train." Ginny shouted next to me and 11 year old Rose appeared by her side.
"Don't worry mum, I am not missing this." She said and went onto platform 9 ¾.
"Mommy! I want to go with Rosie!" I looked down at my 6 year old and smiled.
"You have 5 years to go Clare and then you can go with Rosie." I told her and she pouted as she watched Rose board the train. Harry came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist.
"Where's lily?" I asked.
"Our 4 year old is with Remus. I wanted to see Rose off." Harry said. I smiled, happily at him.
"Hey Harry?" I said, and he kissed my ear waiting for me to finish.
"I'm glad that I unsuccessfully oblivated you." I whispered seriously.
"I am to Mione." He said and the train started to leave. Ginny called to Rose and they said goodbye through the window a last time.
"Gin, you'll see her at Christmas." I said and she nodded.
"I'll miss her so much." Ginny said and smirked at Harry.
"Aunt Ginny you can play with me now!" Clare said happily as if that solved everything.
Ginny laughed and picked Clare up to spin her in a circle.
"That's right; I get to play games with you now!" Ginny agreed, while Harry rolled his eyes. The train was out of sight, so I told Harry we needed to go get Clare and Ginny ice cream because they were both upset.
"Sure, Mione. You just want ice cream." Harry made the mistake of talking to loudly and Clare ran over and grabbed his leg tightly.
"I want ice cream." She said firmly. I laughed loud enough to call attention to myself.
"Come on, I should bring you three out in public." Harry said, while we head out for ice cream.
"That why you love us." Ginny told him.
"Sure, love? You have got to be joking." I listened to them barter with a smile. Everything was perfect. Ginny had made a full recovery as far as I could see. It was mostly because of Rose and I knew that when Ron was released, if he ever was, she would still be okay. Harry would help us and our kids could provide the best distraction. Wait, second best distraction, Harry was still my favorite even after 7 years.
