The medi-witch found all four grandparents sitting in the delivery room waiting for word from the kids. She led them down the hall and showed them how to wash their hands in the special hand wash sinks and then took them into the NICU room where they found Harry and Hermione holding the babies.
"Hi mum, dad," Hermione said as her parents came up on each side of her, admiring their son.
Remus and Sirius were standing on each side of Harry, admiring their granddaughter in much the same way that Jean and Jonathan were with their grandson. "Hey dad, dad." Harry said with a grin. "Would you like to hold your grandson?"
Remus jumped at the opportunity and carefully took his grandson from his son and was amazed at how light he was. "He's so tiny," he commented.
"Three pounds, twelve ounces." Harry told him. "She's three pounds, four ounces."
Hermione was reluctant to hand her daughter over, but eventually handed her to Jean to hold. "Oh goodness," Jean said when she took the tiny bundle from her daughter, realizing just how tiny the babies really were.
"Had you chosen names for them yet?" Jonathan asked
"We had been talking about it, but Harry thought of two lovely names while he was sitting with them, when I was still asleep," Hermione said, smiling over at Harry, who was watching Remus hand the baby to Sirius.
"Well?" Sirius asked, looking up at them. "What are their names, so we can stop saying 'the boy' and 'the girl' already?" He asked with a grin.
"My son's name is Ardin Brennus. It means fiery prince. Fiery, because I think we all know about both of his parents' tempers, and prince both as a tribute to Professor Snape, who was the only person in corridor this morning who didn't just stop and stare at Hermione, and because he's our little prince." Hermione explained.
"And my daughter's name is Branwen Sara. Branwen means beautiful, because obviously she's going to be beautiful just like her mother, and Princess because she's our little princess, and it fits with her brother, without being all weird and matchy," Harry explained.
"Beautiful," Hermione's mother said, as her father nodded in agreement.
"I guess I'll have to say 'Thank you' to Sni...Severus, when we get back to the school." Sirius said, looking down at his beautiful grandchildren, who had been taken back into the arms of their parents.
"That would be appropriate," Remus agreed. "We both will."
"Yeah I have some things to thank him for too. But I don't think he's going to be moved by our naming Ardin's middle name as a tribute to him. Doesn't seem like the type to give a shit." Harry said with a bit of a laugh.
"I think you'd be surprised at the emotion Severus can display when he's not in the presence of someone who tormented him for the better part of seven years," Remus told Harry. "Give the man a chance."
Harry nodded in agreement, and everyone's attention went back to the children. The grandparents oooed and ahhhed over the two adorable babies until the healers came in and asked everyone but the parents to leave, after assuring them that nothing was wrong.
"We need to do another assessment on both of them, so that we can move them to another room. They're both breathing fine, and as you can see, our NICU is well equipped, but tiny. We have a much bigger ward for newborns who need a little observation." The healer explained.
After casting a dozen diagnostics while the babies were in their mummy and daddy's arms, the healer announced that they were both healthy, and that Ardin's oxygen cannula could be removed.
Harry smiled down at his son as the tube was removed from his face, and his view of the little man was now unobstructed.
"He has your nose, honey." He told Hermione.
"Branwen has your ears," Hermione told him.
"Are we ready to move? They should only have to stay one night if everything continues going as it is right now," the healer said.
Harry and Hermione placed the babies back into their little wheeled beds and allowed the medis to push them down the hall and around a few twists and turns, into their new room.
"Miss Granger, you need to go back to bed," her healer told her as she walked by, holding her lower abdomen. "You just gave birth to two children less than an hour and a half ago. No matter how good my healing spells are, you still need rest."
Hermione tried to protest, but it was futile. Harry steered her into the nearest wheelchair and took her back to her room. "You can't take care of them when we all go home tomorrow if you're too sore to sit up because you didn't follow the doctors orders." Harry told her when she tried to argue with him. "I'll go back with them in a bit, but right now I'd like to hold my fiancé for a few minutes. After all, she, and our daughter, just gave me the scare of my life."
He crawled up into the bed beside Hermione, and wrapped his arms around her waist. Soon, both of them were asleep, exhausted from the stress, and for Hermione, a bit of the potions leftover in her system.
The couple was still asleep when both sets of grandparents made their way back to the room.
When she saw the kids asleep, Jean motioned for the guys to go back out of the room, and they all went to a cozy little waiting room where tea was being served out of a never-empty tea pot, to give them some time to rest.
"Albus scared the life out of me," Remus said. "He came bursting into the classroom with none of the decorum he usually has, and said Sirius and I needed to come to the hospital wing."
"He did much the same to us, except he said 'the hospital' to keep our patients from wondering what the dickens he was talking about," Jonathan told them. "I was terrified that something much worse had happened. What's going to happen to the boy who pushed our girl?"
"He was taken to Azkaban, our prison," Remus explained.
"We know about Azkaban and the dementors. Hermione's told us about them." Jean confirmed.
"He'll be held there until his trail in a few days." Sirius told them. "We're not yet sure what they'll be charging him with.
"Hopefully he'll pay for what almost happened to my daughter and our grandchildren." Jonathan Granger said grumpily.
"I'm sure that they will punish him appropriately, calm down dear." Jean said, calmingly.
Sirius switched the topic to something a bit more light hearted and succeeded in distracting Mr. Granger from his anger at Ron. The two couples sat and talked for quite a while, until Harry came to let them see the babies one more time before visiting hours ended.
