I do not own Harry Potter. Oh and this is my first Harry fanfiction so tell me what you think.

Chapter 1

It was March 1980 and Minerva McGonagall has no idea why she has not been feeling well. She has been more tired than before and her mood has been even weirder and now she finds herself wanting to throw up again. Lucky for her; her husband Albus Dumbledore just got out of the bathroom. She pushes him out of the way and runs straight to the toilet.

"Minerva are you all right" said Albus Dumbledore. His voices not as steady or calm like normal.

In all his years of being married to Minerva McGonagall they have had their ups and downs but this past few weeks have been very different. She has been tired even though she is getting more sleep than normal. Her mood lately has been up and down too. One minute she is happy and the next she is sad or mad. However the weirdest part is that she is eating more and more at dinner time, but at breakfast she seems to not want to eat anything.

Albus walks into the bathroom and notices his wife kneeling on the floor; her head in the toilet again. Albus kneels down right next to her and pulls her hair out of the way. He starts to rub her back in small circles.

Minerva looks at her husband and said "I'm fine. Now go finish getting ready if not we are going to be late for breakfast at the Great Hall."

Albus is about to argue, but seeing that his wife looks better and is already getting ready for breakfast. So he decides to finish getting ready and waits for her, so they can walk together to the Great Hall.

Minerva starts to look through her closet to see which robes she will wear today. When she notices that she is a bit dizzy and nauseous again. However she has a lot of things to do today so she ignores how she is feeling. Minerva finishes getting ready and goes to the living room where she finds her husband waiting for her. Albus gives his hand to Minerva which she takes with a smile. They walk in to a hall and notice that there are a lot of students around, so they let go of each other's hands and walk in silence. Albus looks at Minerva to see if she was doing better, but notices that she is a lot paler than normal. He is about to say something when she looks at him with a face that said we will talk about this later. After being marry for so long sometimes they just didn't need to talk to know what the other person was thinking or feeling. He nods at her and they walk to their seats at the Head Table.

Minerva is not feeling too well, but she knows that she has to eat something because if she doesn't Albus will send her to the hospital wing and she cannot stand being there. Therefore Minerva takes some bread and tea just enough to make him happy.

At that moment Poppy Pomfrey leans over to talk to Minerva "Are you okay Minnie?"

"I'm fine" she said quickly. The last thing she wants is to be stuck in the hospital wing for the day.

"Are you sure you look awfully pale. Why don't you stop by the hospital wing, so I can give you a checkup? I think the last one you had was 10 years ago."

Minerva has known Poppy ever sense their first year at Hogwarts and she knows that Poppy will not stop until she agrees. "I don't know... I have a lot of papers to grade." Seeing the face that Poppy was making she said "Okay I will go after lunch."

"That is perfect!" she said with a smile "I will see you after lunch then."

Minerva turns to her husband and tells him "I have some papers to finish, so I will see you at lunch."

"Okay dear."

Minerva stood up and started to walk to her office when she notices that she still doesn't feel too great. She was almost to her office when she started to hold on to the wall because she couldn't hold herself up. She was not able to support herself anymore.

Severus Snape was walking down the hall when he saw her fall. He pulls out his wand to help her but he was too late. He runs to her and kneels on the floor. He checks on her and said "McGonagall are you all right" but she does not respond. He yells "McGonagall….. McGonagall….." but nothing. He whispers "Minerva what's wrong." Then he hears a soft voice "Se….Se...Severus."
