Ginny P.O.V.
I looked down at my stomach in shock. How did this happen, well I know it happened I remember that day well but, to me? I wasn't ready, Harry wasn't ready. Harry. Oh my gosh, I snapped my head up to look at him. He was in the same position he was a moment ago, chest heaving as if he'd just been in a 10 hour quidditch match.
After a few minuets of stunned silence he finally looked at me and rushed to my side. At first I thought he would be angry with me but instead, he kissed me. He pulled back and grinned at me. I swear it covered three quarters of his face. I then noticed his eyes glistening and I became concerned,
"Harry what's wrong? Why are you crying?" I asked fear lacing my voice. It was then the love of my life spoke,
"Nothing"- he choked out "-nothing is wrong. Everything is right. Ginny I love you!" He said in a rush and crushed his lips against mine. When we pulled away I smiled at him he leaned down and put his face right in front of my stomach and spoke to it.
"Hi baby. It's your daddy. I just want you to know that I love you and will always protect you with everything in me. Always..." He then leaned forward and kissed my skin right below my belly button where I knew our baby was growing. I reached over to grab his hand that was resting gently on my stomach.
Tears of my own sprung into my eyes as I realized we were going to have a baby, together. I laughed with pure joy at the thought. He looked and me confusion written clearly on his features, so I explained.
"We're going to have a baby, together, Harry we're going to start a family." His face lit up at that. I knew he'd always wanted a family and I was ecstatic that I was the woman capable of giving him this gift.
Madam Pomfrey returned shortly with a few bottle of pills which she explained were prenatal vitamins along other medications I would need to take to make sure myself and the baby were taken care of.
Harry pocketed them as she explained what I would experience in the coming months and that if I had any questions or concerns to come to her immediately.
She dismissed us with a soft smile and a "congratulations"

When we got back to class McGonnagol raised her eyebrows at us and I gave her a look that said 'it's a lot to explain but I'll tell you at the end of class.' It turned out that it was 3 minutes later that me and Harry had to explain our long absence. After everyone else was gone we walked up to her desk and started to explain. It had been decided on the way back that we wouldn't tell out professor just yet. The elderly which looked at us almost impatiently.
"Well Professor, I got sick, again. When I was done Harry suggested that we go the the infirmary to see why the potion for morning sickness didn't work on me." I explained hoping we wouldn't get punished.
"Well-" her drawling voice cut in "- did you find out why it doesn't seem to have the proper affects on you, Ms. Weasley?" It was Harry that spoke then,
"Well since Madam Pomfrey didn't want to jeopardize anything with the project, she did some muggle tests that take about 3 days to get the results. We are to see her in that amount of time to know" he spoke smooth and evenly, not a hint of uncertainty present in his voice.
She looked at me with sympathy, "Ok we will hope it's nothing serious. You are dismissed." We then gathered our things and headed for the door.

We made our way to the great hall after dropping our things off at the dorms. When we got to the Gryffindor table I realized how hungry I was after bringing breakfast back up.
I ended up filling up three plates worth of food. I started to dig in and was on my third bite before I realized the weird looks I was getting. Except for Harry he was trying not to choke on this butterbeer. He knew exactly why I was eating like this.
"Ginny-" it was Hermione's voice that broke my train of thought "-what are you eating?"
"Food?" I answered her slightly sarcastic.
"Well, yes, it appears so, but why are you eating that much of it?" She asked as sweetly as she could.
"Well you know how sick I've been with the anti-nausea potion not working and I've finally got enough appetite to actually eat." Hermione just shrugged as if she understood and dropped the matter. The rest of lunch went of without anymore questions.
Later in the day Harry and I decided it was time to officially tell the duo about the baby.
"- but Harry! It has to be cute! I always wanted to tell you with a sweet gift but you were there when I found out so I couldn't." We had been discussing how to tell Hermione and Ron about the pregnancy, Harry, however, did not think there was anything to discuss.
"Love, I think it's adorable that you want to be cute, but I don't think it's necessary."
I growled, "well I want it to be special, after all they are the godparents!"
As I finished that statement an idea popped into my head. "And I just came up with the perfect way to tell them!"

We asked my brother and best friend to meet us under our favorite tree just after dinner. As they approached I could see the skepticism in their faces as they eyed the mini gift bags in our hands.
I grinned, "I know you're wondering what these are but you're just going to have to open it to see!"
They grew even more skeptical with my over enthusiastic tone, but took the bags anyways. As they opened it their confusion only grew so I explained.
"You know how to anti-nausea potion wouldn't work for me?" They nodded.
"Well it was because of the very real baby that Harry and I are going to have."
Harry then announced excitedly, "Ginny's pregnant!"
They then clued in on what was inside the bag. They were t-shirts with the words, "best godparents ever!" Written on them. I was almost knocked down by the force of Hermione's hug.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so happy for you. I can't wait to be an aunt!" She pulled away and we both turned to see Ron with a look that said he was still trying to process the information. We all stared at him for a moment then he looked up and stared at Harry directly in the eye,
"You better take good care of her and that baby or I swear I'll hunt you down and kill you. I don't care how close of friends we are." He said his tone deadly serious. Then his face lit up and him and Harry had one of their 'bro hug' moments.
"Other that that, congratulations mate! Your finally going to have the family you've always wanted. I'm gonna be and uncle" he said with a tone similar to Hermione's.
"Godfather" I corrected almost laughing. He then came over and hugged me very carefully as if I would break if he held me too tight. He kissed my cheek and whispered into my ear,
"Congratulations sis. I'm so happy for you" And I don't know if it was the hormones or what but I started crying and soon enough Hermione joined me. The boys stared at us in shock and looked at each other like they didn't know if they should comfort us or run and hide. I knew what each of them were thinking without even knowing Legilimency, 'what did we get ourselves into?'
