"A 'T' grade for divination? For a seer you're a bit thick in that department aren't ya Hal?"

That was my self-proclaimed best friend Scorpious Hypherion Malfoy. You mention the middle name and you'll get hexed into next week.

I grumbled and showed more cereal into my mouth and coughed heavily when some of it went down the wrong pipe.

"Whatever…" I mumbled and blushed as I washed down the cereal with some freshly squeezed orange juice.

"The woman has never been subjected to any of your crazy proclamation eh Hal?" Al asked

"Obviously not… And it isn't my fault that the only thing I can see through her stupid crystal balls is stupid fog. She is just mad that I'm not predicting anyone's death."

"No worries Hal… Trelawney is mad and her stupid subject is just a pile of dragon dung." My best girl mate Rose came to my defence.

"So you say…" Scor smirked.

"No… so everyone says! Isn't that true mum?" She stuck her tongue out at him and turned to her mother.

"Well… I… er… I've never really had any flair for that particular subject. And I… well… I personally never liked Trelawney. I thought that she was a bit-"

"Bat shit crazy?" Ron came down the stairs and pecked her cheek.

"Ron! No… I didn't… say… that exactly. She's a bit peculiar. But she happens to be a true seer. You know she made a proph-"

"We know the story mum. She made prophesy about Uncle Harry and Voldemort… blah blah blah…"

"Well Rose, if you knew the story enough, how come you only got an E for History of Magic?"

"Mum!" Rose shouted astounded. "It is social suicide to get an O for History of Magic."

Hermione raised her eyebrows.

"Oh really… Then how come both Scorpious and Halley got an O for theirs?"

Scor rolled his eyes while I blushed. You might have noticed that I tend to do this a lot.

"Well… they don't care about their reputation! They don't even have a reputation. But I do!" Rose stuck her tongue out.

"Rose Ginevra We-"

"Mione… Leave the kids alone… Everyone knows that Binns is a total loon. In fact, Halley… Malfoy, I'm disappointed in you two!"

"So are we Mr Weasley… Right Hal?"

I rolled my eyes.

"Besides Mione, Rosie isn't even taking History next year anyway… So why bother?

"Ronald Weasley… Rose only g-urmphh" Ron cut her off with a kiss.

"Urgh… guys! We're having breakfast… Get a room!" Rose whined.

Hermione let out a moan as Ron tightened his arms around her.

"Oh sweet Merlin!" Al and Hugo gagged while I blushed and looked away.

"Mum… Are you… seriously? That's just gross…. Dad! Fine, Scor! Let's snog. We'll go to my room."

With that Rose grabbed Scor's jumper and dragged him upstairs.

Ron and Hermione separated with a pop. They were both looking flushed and absolutely disgustingly in love. Ew.

"What? Whe- Rose Ginevra! Your door better be wide open!" Ron shouted and then turned to Hugo.

"Hugh, my lad… Do me a favour and check on your sister for me will you?"

Hugo was in that particular stage of your teenage years where you try to ignore your family to the maximum.

"What the hell? No way! Malfoy has sworn that he will hex me if I walk in on them again!"

"What do you mean 'walk in'? What do they do? Do they snog or something?"

Al, Hugo and I burst out laughing. Even Hermione giggled.

"Ron… Don't be such a hypocrite. Come, eat your breakfast before it gets cold."

Ron pouted but took his seat. He frowned at the plate loaded with bacon, sausages, fried tomatoes, eggs and toast.

"Wait a mo… We have breakfast?" He furrowed his brows. "Who cooked?"

Hermione rolled her eyes as I blushed.

"Halley of course! Do you think I'll cook when she's home? But look at her! Urgh… eating cereal! What is the point of being such an amazing cook when you don't bother eating it yourself?"

I blushed and shrugged nonchalantly.

"I dunno… I guess I prefer cooking for others…"

Ron grinned at me as he scooped some eggs and a bite sized piece of sausage into his mouth. I blushed as he moaned appreciatively.

"This is heavenly Halley… See 'Mione, every girl should know how to cook. 'Tis a way to a man's heart Hal" he winked.

Hermione rolled her eyes at Ron.

'Tis a way to a man's heart… 'Tis a way to a man's heart… 'Tis a way to a man's hea-

"You sure know the way into a man's heart Hal, this tastes heavenly, love! Try it…"

I smiled big and blushed a bit as he twisted some pasta with his fork and fed it to me.

"But I thought that I already had your heart" I said after wiping my mouth.

He smiled.

"That you did, love…Right from the start…"

I pecked his cheek and shifted my attention to the two year olds sitting in their respective high chairs beside us. A boy and a girl. Twins. I sighed and plucked the girl out of her seat. Her face was covered in red sauce. I took my wand out and cleared her face.

His grinned at his babies whom he hadn't seen for a week now.

"Mia…" he cooed and picked her up from my lap.

"Did you eat all your pasta? It seems like they went to your cheeks rather than to your mouth." He wiped a spot that I had missed.

She giggled at her father, popping her dimples out.

"Pissgetti…" She lisped.

"That's right doll… Spaghetti… What about you Ad? Did you like mummy's pasta?"

Adam, the other twin nodded. Our Ad was the serious one.

He smiled fondly at his son and ruffled his already messy dark locks.

"You might look like me, but you really are your mother's son without a doubt. Silent killer aren't ya mate?"

I rolled my eyes and flushed at his comment.

I looked down at my daughter who was now stealing pasta from her brother's plate.

"Mummy… Mia stealing… Time out corner for Mia." Ad went into full on pout mode and he resembled his father greatly at that instant.

"Amelia Rose!"

"Didn't doo it… tattle tale!" She cuddled into her father's side and stuck her tongue out at her brother.

"Mummy…Mia calling me tattle tale!"

Urgh… Dear Merlin! Help me… These two will be the death of me.

"Amelia Rose and Adam James Potter, you better shut it before I put you both to bed without a cookie." I warned.

"Sorry mummy…" They mumbled.

I rolled my eyes and placed Mia on the floor. I undid the fasteners on Ad's chair and put him down too.

"Go watch a bit of telly, yeah. Daddy will put it on for you. Mummy will bring the cookies after she's done with the dishes, kay?"

"Alright Troubles! C'mon, up you go!" He picked the both of them up and lifted them high in the air with ease.

"Daddy! Make me fly!" Mia demanded.

"Sure princess" He placed Ad down and threw Mia up.

My heart stopped for a second.

"Me next daddy…" Adam pouted.

"Alright… That' enough flying…" I glared at him as he threw Ad u.

He caught our son with ease and hugged him close, then he turned to me and smiled a wide cheeky smile.

"C'mon love… Do you think that I'd actually drop them? We've got this gig down to a T right guys?"

"Uh huh…" They nodded

I rolled my eyes at the sight of the two of them with their father and tried to hide my smile as I turned to do the dishes. It was laughable how horrified he was when he first heard of my pregnancy. James was so good with them.

James…James…James…

"Hal! Hal! Hallie! You in there?"

"Huh?" I gasped.

"Another vision?" Al frowned. Hermione was hovering behind him.

"You alright sweetie?"

"Yeah… sorry… just zoned out for a sec. No problem."

Hermione raised an eyebrow.

"Did you see anything traumatizing? You look so pale…"

"No… not traumatizing… maybe… I don't-… I don't know… Just a bit surprising. And a bit scary. And not exactly comfortable…"

"Merlin Hallie! We've known you since you were a baby and this is the longest we've heard you speak." Ron grinned.

"Ron! Stop teasing… She's really disturbed by what she saw. Honestly love, tell me if something's wrong. I've seen you getting visions before but now you look…"

"What's wrong with you Halligator?" Scor asked as he came down the stairs with Rose.

"Uhh… I…"

I couldn't speak. All I could think about were the twins. About how both of them had my blue green eyes. The little boy was a bit shy whereas the little girl was a little spitfire. She had my dark red hair while the boy had his dark hair. Oh no… him.

"Hal? You okay?"

"She just had a vision."

"Oh… that's it?" Rose scrunched up her nose.

"Well yeah… Hold on Hal! Voldemort isn't coming back right?"

"What? No… It's nothing. I just saw something which… which… er… surprised me, that's all."

Ron looked at me for a moment and frowned and I suddenly remembered how he used to be an Auror with Mr Potter. Aurors aren't legiliments were they?

Crap! Think of puppies! No! Think of Goblin Revolution! Professor Binns! Chocolate frogs!

"Ok people..." Ron drawled still not looking away from me.

"Get back to your breakfast. If you've finished, do the laundry, play quidditch, de gnome the garden… just get out of the house!"

Everyone went back to do whatever they were doing.

"Hal? Is there is anything I need to know?"

I blushed. "What? No…"

But my 'no' was strained.

"What did you see?"

I blushed again.

"Nothing important Rose."

"You're blushing. That mea- Oh sweet merlin! You didn't!"

"I don't know what you're talking about…" I said in a sing song voice.

"Not here! My room! The boys might hear us."

"So… Who is he?"

"Rose…" I whine

"Alright… alright… don't tell me the name. I'll guess."

I sighed.

"Is he in our year?"

I stuttered and blushed.

"Is that a yes?"

"No…"

"Ok… do I know him?"

Oh Rose…

I nodded weakly.

"Ooohh… Er… tall?"

I sighed and nodded.

"Alright…" Rose grinned.

"Dark? Blonde? Weasley red?"

"Dark…" I mumbled.

"Tall, dark and handsome… Nice Hal!" she winked.

I rolled my eyes. I felt weak and nauseous. I always do after a lengthy vision.

"Does he play quidditch?"

An image of James Potter soaring on his broom stick filled my vision.

"Whoa look at that! And another quaffle in for Gryffindor! James Potter is on a roll today, folks!" Joshua Thomas' magically amplified voice boomed throughout the pitch.

I giggled giddily and squeezed Rose's hands, which were holding my own ones just as tight, as James flew past us and winked in my direction and blew me a kiss.

"Merlin! You two are so sickening! Please don't tell me Scor and I are like this."

"We are in love Rosie…" I giggled as another thundering roar of applause broke my ear drums.

"The snitch has been caught! Hart has caught the snitch! Gryffindor wins! Merlin'S Pants! Gryffindor has won the Quidditch Cup! Marry me Shaylee Hart... Now that lass is a keeper folks. A name no bloke should ever forget. She's a damn awesome player and she's hot as – Sorry Professor…"

"Rose! We won the cup!" I shouted as Rose rolled her eyes muttering about how my new found love for quidditch is annoying.

"I love you…" James mouthed as he flew by our stands again. A couple of third years giggled.

"Hal? Hallie?

"Sorry… zoned out again…"

Rose raised a brow.

"So… I'm guessing that's a yes on the quidditch player?"

I blushed.

"Ooohh… Which house? Which house?"

"Enough Rose… I'm not entirely comfortable… I don't even…"

"Wait a mo… Have you even talked to this bloke?"

I blushed.

"Er… once or twice maybe?"

"Yikes… Ok… That needs to be corrected… So… what exactly did you see? Was it like a 'broom cupboard snog' or 'library date' or Hogsmeade or something?"

I sighed.

"No Rose… It's a bit more serious…"

"Merlin's Pants! Marriage? Am I your Maid of Honour? Do I look pretty? Am I pregnant?"

"Rose…"

"Sorry…"

I sighed and Rose sat up excited. She knew that I was about to start spilling.

"I guess I'm married… I mean I saw kids, twins actually, a girl and a boy."

Rose gasped

"Oh my god… Am I their godmother?"

I rolled my eyes.

"I don't know babe. But the girl's name is Amelia Rose."

"Aw thanks love…. Does she look like you?"

"Er… Kind of… She has my eyes and hair and dimples. She gets the other features from her father I suppose."

Rose smiled.

"And the little guy?"

"Er… Adam, I guess. We called him Ad. He just had my eyes. Nothing else."

"Aww… How old were they in your vision?"

I shrugged.

"Not sure… Two or three maybe?"

"C'mon Hal! Give me some deets! You won't tell me the bloke's name! At least tell me about my future god kids."

"I don't know… I made pasta or something. And the kids were fighting over it."

"Any sane human with a function taste bud would." Rose commented.

I gave her a mock glare as she muttered an apology.

Ad- I mean, the little boy was a bit shy. The girl was one naughty little thing though. She was stealing her brother's food and she had the most evil of smirks on her face. Kind of cute really…"

"And what about the second vision?"

I blushed.

"Well… you were with me for that one."

"Really? It was a Quidditch Match wasn't it? He's a player? What position?"

"No Rose…"

"Alright… alright… Wait a minute! He has to be a Gryffindor or a Slytherin. Otherwise I wouldn't have come."

Oh boy…

"Er… what if I made you come?"

"Possible… but love, you are blushing like a Weasley. So I'm gonna go with my earlier assumption. You need to learn to cover your blush up if you wish to be an Auror."

I harrumphed.

"Oh Merlin! It's so easy right now… Now, let's look at the blokes in Slytherin shall we?"

"Rose… no…" I whimpered.

"Hush… Now, he has to be in his seventh year as you said that he wasn't in the same year as us. And I doubt whether you'd go for younger men."

I blushed a colour rivalling my hair.

"Seventh year Slytherins… Hm… wow that's most of them. Well… there is Flint, then there is Jacoby and there is that Irish guy, Barney something… Dom went out with him remember? And oohh is it Zabini? He is hot even though he's a little bit weird."

I sighed.

"And let's see Gryffindor. Well… there is Kevin Mathews, Allan Wood and James."

I blushed as I heard his name.

"Now… we can rule out Barney the Irish as he is a red head. And Jacoby is a blonde. And I honestly doubt it if you'd fall for Flint. He's absolutely vile. So that just leaves Zabini."

Rose raised a brow

"Now let's take a look at Gryffindor's shall we? Well… All are dark haired, except Kevin who is a blonde. But he's going out with that Finnigan girl from Ravenclaw, so he's out of the list anyway. So that just leaves Allan and James." Rose frowned.

"Rose… quit it. If it has to happen, it will happen." I mumbled.

"C'mon Hal! Lemme have some fun. You've never dated ever in your life! So as your best friend I have the right to have fun with this. Oh my god! My wittle Hallie dating!" Rose mock gasped and brought her fist to her mouth.

I rolled my eyes and tried to ignore my burning cheeks.

"I am so proud of you sweet heart…" Rose pretended to wipe away a tear.

I am so proud of you sweet heart… I am so proud of you sweet hear… I am so proud of you swee -

Maybe it's because I was thinking about it so hard, I had my third vision in less than an hour. This wasn't highly unusual. It usually happens if I'm thinking hard about something, like I had a vision about the OWLS last year. And I knew the questions they asked before the question paper was even prepared, I suppose. Hence the O's in every subject. This has been happening for ages. But since I actually study, in fear that my visions might be wrong, my friends (Rose, Scor and Al, the only people at Hogwarts that know about me being a Seer) don't blame me too much.

"I am so proud of you sweet heart. You're pregnant! Oh sweet Jesus… my baby is going to have a baby…"

I was horrified. First, I stop getting visions and now this. Oh no… Why is this happening? I mean… we've been married for barely a month. It's too early… This must've happened before marriage.

"Mum! Please stop…" I was getting a headache.

"Aren't you happy baby doll? Oh he or she is going to be adorable. Oh I can just imagine a little boy with your eyes and James' hair." My mum gushed.

Oh Merlin! James is going to be so mad. He got mad when we merely talked about the idea of having babies in the future.

"Well… how about I do a scan love? We'll see how far along you are."

My mum went into her doctor mode.

"Or would you rather go to that St Mungos? You would be giving birth there of course. I suppose giving birth at a magical hospital is rather simpler than in a normal one."

Yes… It would be the wiser option as the scanning machine freaked the shit out of me. But…

"No mum… I haven't told James yet and the media will have a field day is they saw me coming out of the Ob/Gyn department at Mungos."

"Oh darling… Are you worried about what James will think? I can assure you that he'll be ecstatic. You adores you and he'll love the baby even more."

"Yeah… but James wants to wait, mum. We're both barely out of Hogwarts and I just started my Auror training. I'd have to quit. And James is only half way through his auror training.

Mum gave me a watery smile.

"I learnt that I was pregnant with you while in Medical School. And it was out of wedlock. Your daddy freaked out at me. He was going on and on about how I ruined his future. He ran out of the house and returned home drunk. Oh, I spent the entire day crying. You know your dad, he hates to see his women cry, and he came to his senses. And look at him with you, now." She smiled.

"Now lift up your shirt hun… This will be a bit cold…"

I did as she asked.

"All right… Can you hear the tiny 'dub lub' sound?" my mum smiled at a flicker on the screen and she froze all of a sudden.

"Oh no darling… It looks like-

"Hallie! Merlin! You're freaking me out today. What is wrong with you?"

"Rose!" I gasped and threw my arms around her.

"Hallie… You're scaring me…. What's the matter doll?"

"There's something wrong… my mum said… and baby… oh… he's gonna be so angry…"

"Who Hal?"

"I… I can't tell you… him"

"Him? Oh… wait! What happened to the baby?"

I sobbed harder.

"I dunno… But he'll be angry. There's something wrong with the baby."

"But you already saw yourself with the babies. They're fine right?"

I shrugged and bit my lip to stop the tears.

"Listen… everything is fine… You are just overreacting as usual." She wiped the tears with the pad of her thumb.

"C'mon… let us go downstairs and get a drink of water, yeah?"

I nodded weakly.

"Rose… Don't mention this to anyone else, yeah?" I asked wiping my face.

"Of course not…"

"Oh my god sweetheart! I am so happy for you!" A huge puff of curly brown hair smothered me as Hermione hugged me tightly.

"Mum? What are you doing?" Rose raised a brow at her mother.

"Sorry Hallie… I had to tell her." Ron joined in on the hug.

"Huh?"

"You will be the perfect girl for James. Oh I can't wait to tell Harry and Ginny."

"James? What in the name of Merlin are you mumbling about, mum? Oh wait! Oh no Hallie… Not James…"
