Molly and Ashlynn's relationship wasn't like her other siblings. It wasn't always like that. They use to get along, but that was until a rough patch formed between the two. Since then, they haven't had a proper 'mother and daughter' relationship. But, it wasn't like Ashlynn was going to disrespect her mother.

"Who's hungry?" Ashlynn asked. Numerous of 'me' went around the kitchen, making Ashlynn smile slightly. Even after a long week, seeing her family together always brought a smile on her face.

Everyone took their seats, conversations immediately sprouting from everyone. It was long until have the dishes were empty by now. It felt nice to finally relax and have all worries float away for all of them. Without Fred, Bill, and Fleur the love was still present for them. It was hard, after the war, for everyone in the family, for different reasons. But, that's what brought then closer together. It's what made them a family again.

Ashlynn was laughing with Lucy as Percy was trying his hardest to scold them. The two were flinging small pieces of bread at Ron's head. Lucy grinned widely at Ashlynn, causing her heart to flutter slightly.

"Hem hem." Ginny coughed, grabbing everyone's attention. Ashlynn glanced at Harry, wondering if he knows what's going on. He just shrugged and looked at Ginny. "I have an announcement to make."

Now, Ashlynn was panicking slightly. Whenever some said that line, it was either an engagement or a pregnancy, and seeing as she was married....It wasn't in Ashlynn's favor. Glancing at Harry again, his eyes and mouth were wide. The same thoughts were going through his mind as well. For some reason, Ashlynn felt betrayed. Like he cheated on her, even though it was the other way around. She knew she couldn't really complain, pregnancy was built up over a course of months.

"What is it, Ginny dear?" Molly asked, a small smile gracing her lips.

"I'm pregnant."

Ashlynn wanted to faint right there. Her mind went blank and her body stayed frozen. She couldn't even feel the pain, as it was numbing her body instead. But, a part of her mind wasn't upset. It was just...empty. It was bound to happen. Harry was with Ginny they even started. Slowly, that part of her mind was taking over. Growing and intercepting every thought.

Harry spit out his water, surprised that she said that. he couldn't even remember the last time they had sex. It seemed so long ago, that the chances of her getting pregnant were slim. Unless she was that pregnant.

Everyone else erupted in cheers. Molly and Arthur went over to Ginny and pulled her into a tight hug. Ron and George pulled each other into a hug. Percy and Charlie walked over to Ginny and Harry and started to congratulate the two. Ashlynn sat in her seat for a few seconds, comprehending the words that slipped out of his sisters mouth. Then, she stood up from her seat and pulled Ginny in for a hug. "Congratulations, I am so happy for you. I want to godmother for this one, please." She chuckled, trying to make it sound as real as she could. Her whole body wanted to break down right there.

"Oh please." Ginny said sarcastically. "But, thank you, thank you."

Ashlynn and Ginny pulled apart when she went to go hug Audrey. She turned around and faced Harry. She could see that he had no idea that Ginny was pregnant, which confused her slightly. He pulled her into a hug , her hair shielding him. "It's not mine."

Ashlynn's face contorted in confusion from his words. How wasn't it his? "What do you mean?"

"I'll explain later, but please, trust me." He pulled away and looked down at her. She hesitated, but nodded nonetheless.

Once everyone was done congratulating the two, they went back to sit at there own seats. "I'm so proud for you two, awe that's amazing." Molly praised. Harry and Ginny shyly smiled and looked down at there plates. "When are you going to have children, Ashlynn?"
