Life after the deathly hallows

Chapter 18

Hermione's POV
I felt so relieved when I saw Hugo tucked in the bed all safe, and we actually knew where he was. It was an extremely awkward moment before we went to Ginny's to pick up Hugo, there are a lot of words left unsaid, but neither of us really want to talk about what happened.
"Hey" I heard Ron's voice behind me scaring the crap out of me.
"Oh my gosh, hi..." I say, clutching my chest while turning around to face him
"So, are you making anything for dinner?" He asked me.
"Um... I was thinking of making lasagna since it is Hugo's favourite, but, I was about to start washing the dishes" I made something up to get him to leave.
"Ok good, because I was actually going to bring us all to a restaurant when Hugo wakes up, this whole thing has taken a toll on him, I think he needs a night out" He suggested
"I don't think a night out is enough to solve a problem as big as this, this is way more than just a little problem. There is a lot that he isn't telling us, and I don't think he will on his own. Kissing up is going to make it obvious."
"Well not doing anything won't make him trust us! We need to do something!"
"Fine, lets go, but I need to wash the dishes if you will excuse me" I tried to walk past him, because I was definitely NOT in the mood to talk about kissing up to our son so that he can tell us things. He should tell us on his own. Ron caught my arm and made me face him.
"Why are you acting like this? Can you just stop it? We are both trying to save people Rose and Albus and James! Why do you keep getting mad at me?"
"Because you are basically trying to trick our son into telling us things he clearly doesn't want to."
"To save Rose! He knows things that will help us save Rose! Think about her!"
And there, he hit my weak spot, he was right. it's either be good to one and lose the other, or have both but mad at you for a short while. it would be worth it. I sigh and shake my head.
"No, you're right. I'm sorry I keep lashing out on you, I just, I'm really confused and I don't even know what to do anymore."

My voice breaks and i try to keep the tears in as i breath deeply and look to the roof. Ron pulls me into a hug I remember why it is that I love him so much. Hes always there for me, and knows exactly how to comfort me. I grab on to his shirt to keep myself from crying partly because of how confused and useless I feel, but mostly now after the hug at how bad I feel for keeping everything from him. He wouldn't have lied nor kept anything to me. I feel like I betrayed him.

Lily's POV:
I wake up blinking quickly at first but then take in my surroundings. I find myself in my bed in my room...But how? The last thing I remember is being back at Hogwarts where I fainted or whatever that snake did to me and then Hugo... Wait I suddenly remember, where's Hugo. I start to get up when my door opens quietly and my mom shuffles in with a tray full of food. There is chocolate milk, pancakes, a muffin, and an apple.

Hey guys! I am – sorry for not updating earlier, the phone problem I told you about was still going on and I couldn't get my hands on a laptop for long so I needed to wait a while until I got my new phone. I love this one, at least it works, so yeah, I spent the day finishing this chapter and I made it extra long for you! :) How will Ginny react? How will Hugo react? Will Lily remember anything?
