The Wedding and what happens after

Rose woke up and thought today is the happiest day of my life. Rose had just finished getting ready for the wedding as her Uncle Frank entered the room. "You look beautiful Rose are you ready?" Uncle Frank asked

"As ready as I'm going to be" said Rose.

Then Uncle Frank took her under the arm and walked her down the aisle.

"I know pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride" said the officiator and they shared a long polite kiss. They were married and could not be happier! Magical silver balloons burst and white doves flew everywhere.

At the reception Rose and Severus were given too many gifts to count. When they finally got home with all the gifts. The whole living room was full. So they decided to go to bed. In the morning Rose got up before Severus so she could make breakfast for her new husband. When Severus woke up and did not find Rose asleep next to him, he thought the wedding was the dream; then the smell of bacon and eggs filled the air, he got out of bed and made his way to the kitchen to find Rose cooking bacon and eggs the muggle way. Severus snuck up behind Rose and put his arms around her waist and kissed her neck, which earned him a smack in the head.

"Ouch, that hurt Rose!" Severus complained rubbing his head.

"Serves you right for sneaking up on me like that" said Rose.

Six months Later

One early spring morning while Rose and Severus were having breakfast Rose decided to break some important news to Severus. "Severus honey, I have some very exiting news for you, I checked with the healers yesterday and they confirmed that ……..I'm pregnant!!!!!

"Oh my, I can't believe it, I'm going to be a father" Severus said giddly. He went to hug his wife, he was so happy. "How far along are you?" Severus asked as he got ready for work.

"About three months the healer said " Rose answered.

"Do you want to go shopping together for the baby later? I just have to pop into work for a couple of hours first" Severus said.

"That would be great I will be ready by 3 o'clock" said Rose as she helped Severus with his cloak.

"See you later sweet heart" Severus said, and then gave her a sweet kiss.

A few hours later Rose heard foot steps outside, she ran to the door thinking it was Severus, but it wasn't, it was Death Eaters circling the house with burning torches. Rose ran to the basement door opened it and ran inside, slammed the door she pushed furniture against it so no one could get in; then stuck sheets and towels in the gaps around the door.

Next Rose made a bed of blankets and crawled into a corner and cried herself to sleep.

When Severus arrived home and found the house burnt down he thought the worst that his wife Rose and unborn child were dead; so he went to the nearest pub and got drunk and then passed out. When Rose woke up the next morning, she moved the furniture from the door and walked out of the basement only to find the whole house burnt down.

"What am I going to do? ………………..I know, I must go to my Aunty and Uncles place in France, I can't risk looking for Severus; so I can have my child and it can grow up happy and safe. Then she apparented to her Auntie's place in France.
