Capri – Colbie Caillat.

...

She's got a baby inside
and holds her belly tight
All through the night
Just so she knows
she's sleeping so
safely to keep
her growing

...

For a long time I only heard of my sister. Our family, now for even worse reasons, had become the talk of the town. I heard of her marriage to Ted, her official becoming of Andromeda Tonks. After that? Nothing.

Then as I was walking down the street I saw her. I stopped. Mesmerised. Gladly, she couldn't see me. She was preoccupied. She was pregnant. I could see the bulge of her rounded stomach quite clearly, the glow of her flushed features as she sat down out the front of a store, the happiness spread across her features...

She was still just as beautiful as she ever was, I longed to approach her and redeem myself.

...

And oh when she'll open her eyes
There'll be no surprise
That she'll grow to be
So beautifully
Just like her mother
That's carrying
Oh Capri

...

I stood, hiding in the shadows as she waited. I imagined what that baby would be like. Would they look like their mother? Or their father? Like me?

I decided then that the baby would be the best and even more of everyone.

They would be smart, beautiful, talented and loyal.

Everything I wasn't.

...

She's beauty
Baby inside she loves
Oh Capri
she's beauty
there is an angel growing' peacefully
Oh Capri
Sweet baby

...

I was forced to tear my eyes away when Ted came back to Andromeda with an ice cream that she gratefully took and licked. I couldn't risk him seeing me. I couldn't risk her seeing me.

I disappeared to the far side of town with no one knowing I had ever been there at all.

...

And things will be hard at times
But I've learned to try
Just listening
Patiently, oh Capri

...

That night I went home to my husband and tried not to show my weakness. I wanted so badly what my sister had, almost as much as I wanted her to have that happiness. I wanted a husband that loved and cared for me, a home that was welcoming, and a life that was happy...

I lay in that bed wanting nothing more than to cry but I knew I couldn't. I held myself together as Rodolphus had his way with me and went to sleep beside me.

...

Sweet baby
Oh Capri
she's beauty
Baby inside she loves
Oh Capri
Your beauty
just like your mother
that's carrying...Oh Capri

...

Once I was sure that Rodolphus was fast asleep and wouldn't wake I slipped out of bed and into the cold air of night.

It was there I cried.

No longer for my sister who was forced from her family, nor for myself having been too weak to deserve my sister, but now I cried for the child who's life I desperately longed to be a part of.
