As he looked around the Headmaster's office, he saw Arthur standing off to one side of Molly his wand out is if he were in the process of trying to cast a spell. Ginny was standing near Fawkes' perch a confident smile on her face as she looked at him.
"Now that the shrew has been silenced at least for now, would someone care to tell me just what the hell she was screaming at me about?" Harry asked taking a seat as far away from the petrified Mrs. Weasley as it was possible to get in the little office.
Unable to contain the news she had for one moment longer, Ginny said. "I'm going to have your baby!"
Harry shook his head certain that there was a problem with his hearing. "You want to run that by me one more time, cause I thought I heard Miss Weasel say she was going to have my baby."
Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!
"That is indeed what Miss Weasley did say, Mr. Potter." The look Dumbledore gave Harry made it clear that he was disappointed in Harry's actions.
"Save that look for someone who cares, Dumbledore." Harry told him dryly. "Once again I am judged and found guilty of something I didn't do, solely on the word of a Weasley. Given her previous actions, I'm surprised you are willing to believe her. I wouldn't believe her if she said it was raining and it really was."
"Madame Pompfrey had confirmed it this morning." Arthur Weasley told him stiffly as if Harry had just insulted his honour. "Ginny is about four months pregnant and while she named you as the father, I wanted to be certain, given what you said previously regarding your feelings for her. At my request Madame Pompfrey performed a magical paternity test and it confirmed you are the father."
Ginny smiled smugly at Harry. "I told you on our last night together at Hogwarts that nothing would keep us apart. I'm carrying your child. What further proof do you need of my love for you? It's time you accept that we were meant to be a family. You are my soulmate Harry."
Harry gave Ginny a long considering look before turning his attention back to Arthur. "While I have a good idea of the mechanics involved in getting a woman pregnant thanks to a few talks with Sirius over the Christmas break during my fifth year, I am forced to admit I have never had a chance to practise the techniques he recommended. Given that rather embarrassing fact, I can't help but wonder how your daughter is pregnant by me. I can only think of one case in the whole of human history where a woman got pregnant without a man being directly involved, but I wouldn't have thought Gin-Gin would fit the required criteria for immaculate conception. I know I certainly don't."
"Harry, you should be overjoyed by the fact that you are going to be a father." Ginny said as if she was talking to a slow child. "You will see once we are married, you will finally have the family you have always wanted. I know you will be a good father to our child." Ginny looked down at her slightly swollen belly and gently rubbed it. "Yes your daddy will be very good daddy."
"I'd go back to Azkaban first… with the Dementors." Harry muttered.
"Mr. Potter, there is no call to insult Miss Weasley." Dumbledore having spent more time interacting with the muggle world than most wizards understood the reference to immaculate conception from one of their major religions and figured out that Harry apparently was not going to do the right thing by the girl he got pregnant. He never would've thought that a Potter would shirk his responsibilities. He could also see that Arthur hadn't understood the implied reference and was grateful for that. The last thing he needed or wanted was another formal duel at Hogwarts.
"I don't consider the truth to be an insult." Harry countered.
Ginny was not pleased to hear this. Why was her Harry still trying to fight against Fate? He was hers and nothing would take him away from her. She had known that even before he saved her from the basilisk. Harry was hers and no one took what was hers, not even Harry.
After his third attempt to unfreeze his wife, Arthur spoke up before Ginny could say anything in response. "Mr. Potter, would you please release my wife?"
"Only if you keep her under control, Mr. Weasley." Harry told him. "If she tries to attack me again, I will tie her up and hang her from the battlements of the school."
Arthur nodded in agreement with those terms.
As soon as Molly was free she looked around for Harry and finding him, started to charge toward him, until Arthur barked out an order. "MOLLY! Sit down!"
"Arthur, this boy has humiliated and defiled our daughter and he has to pay." Molly retorted.
"We need answers, Molly, before we take any action." Arthur countered firmly. "Attacking Potter will not get us those answers."
"So tell me boy , after everything my family did for you, all the pain and suffering we went through for and because of you, why did you steal my baby's virginity, her innocence?" Molly sneered in a manner that would do Snape proud as she sat down next to Arthur. Harry couldn't help noticing that her fists were tightly wrapped around the arm rests of her chair as if she were strangling them, since she couldn't touch her intended target… him… yet. "Is it your intention to destroy the entire Weasley Family? You claimed over and over again that you didn't want anything to do with her and then she winds up pregnant and carrying your spawn ! What spell did you use on her to get her into your bed, so you could rape her without her fighting you? I know my daughter, if she'd been in her right mind, she would've fought like a wildcat rather than give herself to someone who held her in such contempt."
