Ginny's P.O.V.
Harry's eyes widen and he gives me a look that plainly says, You didn't tell them yet? I give a barely visible shake of my head.
"That, Ronald," I say in a steely tone, glaring at him, "Is your nephew." I pick up the tiny bundle that is my child, and hold him close. My gaze doesn't waver as I glare at my brother. Hermione's eyes are wide as she looks from me to Harry to the bundle in my arms. Ron on the other hand, looks ready to explode.
"But...that's.....your...kid?" He splutters, and I nod, biting my lip. I glance from him to Harry, then to Hermione. Everyone seems to be holding their breath. Some of the muggles steal glances at us.
My son starts to stir in my arms, and I know when he wakes up he will start crying, so I grab the bag with nappies and some bottles in it and head towards the family bathroom near the back. I hear footsteps and know Hermione is following. I walk in and am about to close the door when Hermione pushes her way in.
"Ginny," I turn away. "Ginny, you should have said something to me! I know you were hiding from his remaining followers or the press or whatever but you should have came to me! You shouldn't have had to go through this without another woman! I could have helped you." I look at her, with tears streaked down her face, and try not to fall apart.
"It's been difficult. I haven't left the house more than to go to the store, the muggle store, and get groceries. Harry still goes to work and lives his life and I'm just a weight dragging him down!" There are tears pouring out of my eyes, "He wasn't even there when I went into labor! He was at work and he come home to find me pretty much dead on the floor! He shouldn't have to deal with all the problems I'm creating for him." Hermione hugs me, being careful of the baby, and waits until I calm down a bit to let go.
"Your not a weight dragging him down, Ginny. He loves you and your son and Teddy so much. He would do anything for you, and your little family." She says, looking me in the eyes. Then she looks at my son. "What's his name?"
"His name is James Sirius Potter and I love him so, so much." Hermione is crying again, but this time I'm pretty sure they're happy tears.
