After the war // A Harry Potter fanfic

Birth

This month was the last month of the pregnancy. Ginny was super excited, she was having her very own, and first, kid. It was a boy and they where naming him James Sirius. Ginny had been writing on her diary for a while, she took it out of her bedside table. It was red and had a Gryffindor crest at the front. She wrote;

Dear Diary,

Is today going to be the day? The day I give birth to my first child. I am so excited, I can't wait to find out the gender, well everyone knows except me. If its a boy we are naming him James Sirius. If its a girl Lily Luna. Today feels different, well I have said that the past 3 days. I got into St.Mungos yesterday. Lily being a healer insisted on bringing me hear.

Ouch, I feel my baby turning around inside of me.I am going to miss this feeling, the feeling of your baby kicking you inside. Sometimes it does hurt but most of the times it feels like butterflies or heaven. OW, it hurts even more now, I am going to give birth. I am calling Harry-

¨Harry!!!¨she yelled. In less than a second Harry was in, followed by Lily, James, Ron, Hermione, Sirius, Luna, Draco and the rest of the Weasley's trying to get a good look. ¨I think its time!¨she mumbled. Lily entered and it started.

After 20 minutes the baby was out, it was a boy. The couple hugged the baby and it got taken away to be cleaned. The whole family tried to fit into the room but it wasn't possible, so they took turns. First was James, Lily and Sirius. They gave them their presents. Sirius gave her a baby pyjamas saying "I am up to no good" at the front and then "Mischief Managed".

Ginny laughed at that. James and Lily said they were giving their last. After everyone got through and gave their presents she looked at them. Harry and Ginny saw: A crib, a telephone made of owls and a quidditch match was going on, a stuffed Stag, Wolf, Werefwolf and a deer, then there was billion toys and at the top there was two books; Hogwarts, A History. It was given by Hermione and a photo book.

They opened it, it was full of pictures of Lily when she was pregnant and of James, Remus and Sirius. The very first picture was of Lily's and James' first day at Hogwarts. They photos went on until today. Even though it didn't look like it there were a 100+ pages to be filled with memories. A little photo came up, one with James in Ginny's arm.

They enjoyed their presents and chatted what they nursery was going to look like. To Ginny's surprise they had already painted it, it was grey with the Hogwarts skyline. It had a little arc in both side of the room so he could crawl over to Ginny's and Harry's room at any time and to Teddy's too. The room was also decorated with soft toys and posters and pictures of them.

Ginny was eager to get out of the hospital and back to her own bed. Back to her kitchen, her home. She was also eager to go back to her job but that wasn't going to be possible. She decided, for the child's good, to leave Quidditch. Hermione had gotten her a job a the ministry. Of course the job was related to Quidditch.

Ginny looked through the picture book with Harry and laughed at his parents picture. Under the picture book was another book, way thicker. It was called "the Weasley picture book". It was the same as the "Potter picture book" but with the Weasley's past. They saw Ginny's first match, her first words. She looked at James picture and though about him.

"Harry, where is James? What is taking so long?!" She asked, a little bit scared.
"I don't know..." He answered, he looked at his mom waiting for an answer.
"I don't know either. Let me go check" she told them nervously.

And with that she got out of the room, leaving a scared Ginny, Harry and James and a sleeping Sirius. What woke up Sirius was Ginny crying. Lily went down the hall and to the left to see an open door. Inside the room there were other crying babies in their towels and stunned Healers. Where James was supposed to be was a letter.
