Chapter 1
Preface
She stared down with tear-stained eyes at the beautiful infant in her arms. A lovely baby boy with gentle brown curls just like hers, his pale skin flushed with pink and his blue eyes shone with merriment as he looked up at her mother.
Yes, his mother. I am this beautiful child's mother, she thought smiling at the child in her arms. She just wished she had someone with her to help her care for the baby, having made her parents go into hiding at the start of the war over a year ago she had no one to rely on but herself.
She was worried. How will she take care of her baby if she still had a year left in school? And what if they found out? What will they do to her? Surely Professor Dumbledore will not be cold about her keeping her child while she still studies? But where shall she keep him? With her in school? How is that possible if she lived with other 7th year students. Oh no wait, she was Head Girl? She had a room for herself along with... Oh no, she forgot about the Head Boy. Who happened to be Draco Malfoy. No, she did not have anywhere to go with the baby. She must speak with Dumbledore, she decided. If he did not want her to keep the baby with her, then fine she will have to leave school as much as it pains her to do so. The baby. He has to have a name.
Tristan. That will be his name.
Who would've thought? She was a mother at barely 17 years old under painful circumstances.
