Hope Has Returned Chapter 60 (Harry's POV)

+++time skip 9 months+++

"HARRY RUN FASTER!" Ginny yelled as I rolled her down a hall in St. Mungo's.

"Yes dear" I responded. James and Albus had been dropped off at Scarlet and Charlie's apartment about 15 minutes ago.

"Right this way" a Healer said gesturing into a room. About a month ago Hermione got out of Azkaban and gave birth to Hugo early.

"Ready Gin?" I asked Ginny.

"Maybe....." Ginny responded and the screamed in pain. This is going to be a long night.

+++time skip 7 hours+++

"It's a girl!" a Healer said placing the baby in Ginny's arms.

"What should we name her?" Ginny asked.

"I don't know" I said shrugging.

"Well I think Luna should be the middle name because she helped me a lot while we weren't talking to our other family" Ginny said.

"Luna as a middle name sounds wonderful" I said agreeing.

"And then Lily as her first name because I can see tufts of red hair" Ginny said placing our daughter in my arms.

"Lily Luna Potter, you are just as beautiful as your mother" I said looking into her soft brown eyes. Ginny smiled at my comment. Then the door opened quietly.

"Harry is it a boy or girl?" Scarlet whispered as she crept across the room.

"Girl" I said unable to wipe the smile off my face.

"Harry can I hold Lily again?" Ginny asked.

"Yes" I said as I placed our bundle of joy in Ginny's lap.

"What is her full name?" Scarlet asked me.

"Lily Luna Potter and is Charlie watching the boys?" I asked concerned about my other children.

"Yes well I'm going to inform the rest of the family if it is okay with you guys" Scarlet asked.

"Yes tell them they deserve to know" Ginny said rocking Lily back and forth.

"Yes but tell them to leave the little ones!" I added as Scarlet left the room. About 20 minutes later the elder Weasleys minus Charlie and Scarlet walked in.

"Oh she is precious!" Molly exclaimed walking over. I smiled for the first time in the presence of the Weasleys. I didn't make eye contact with Ron or Hermione. Ron came up to me first. Everyone backed up. After about 5 minutes of intense silence Ron hugged me.

"Congrats" he said hugging me. I hugged him back.

"Thank you" I said back. Then Hermione split is up. Hermione glared at Ron.

"Really you are being nice to him when he got me locked in Azkaban for 8 months!" Hermione whisper-yelled. I stepped back away from the insane people and sat down on Ginny's bed where Ginny was sleeping. I took Lily from her hands and placed her in her hospital crib.

"Excuse me you will wake up Lily and Ginny so take your fight to the hall please" I said twirling Ginny's hair around my finger.

"Fine!" Ron whispered and they disapperated away from St. Mungo's.

"Well this is Lily Luna Potter" I said picking up Lily. Fluer held her first coddling her. Eventually she was passed around the room and then back to me. I placed her back into her crib.

"Doyouguyswanttocomeoverfordinner" Molly said really fast.

"What?" I said back.

"Do you guys want to come over for dinner?" Molly asked again.

"Oh um sure I guess when should we come over?" I asked Molly.

"7:00" and with that everyone left. I laid down in my bed staring at Lily and Ginny. I'm the luckiest man alive.
