Curiosity killed the cat new chapter 9 11/20/11
I was blinded by my tears when I left the house I could not bear the pain that I felt in my chest. I knew that the next time we met we would be on opposing sides and that it would most likely end with both of us dying one by the hand of the other and the other dying of a broken soul. I ran as fast as I could letting my animal senses guide my way staying in my animal form for fear of being recognized and also for the fact that I still did not know how to hide my new appendages.
I did not know for how long I ran until I had collapsed in exhaustion. It was only then that I cried. It was only then that I allowed myself the thought of what I ran away from and what it meant for me. I knew that I couldn't return to Hogwarts and I knew that I would never be left alone if I stayed in the Wizarding world. But where could I go? Where would I not be found that could let me live my life? I had nothing on me I needed help but who would help me without letting those who didn't need to know know. I hoped the goblins wouldn't be bothered by me imposing on them. With that thought in mind I started heading toward Gringotts with tears in my eyes and a hole in my heart.
I had chosen to leave of my own free will but why does it feel as if I had been forced to. I could have stayed with Tom and seen what his reaction would have been. Maybe he would have accepted me. Maybe I wouldn't have to be alone through this.
I had left England to one of the Potter family homes in the Caribbean. It is peaceful here. The home is in a small magical community that like to keep to themselves. No one knows who I am here except for the doctor. His name is Doctor Lucifer; though his name sounds scary he is actually one of the kindest person I have met. He is my personal doctor and my only friend on this island. I had only been on the island a month when I started to have the dizzy spells. It first started when I was in my garden and I just thought that I was just overheated but it occurred more and more which caused me to become alarmed. When I met Dr. Lucifer he had black hair and these bright blue eyes he was well fit and a foot taller than me and looked to be in his late twenties.
"So Mr. Evans how long have you been having these dizzy spells?"
I looked at him trying to avoid his gaze.
"For about two weeks I do not know why I am having them I thought it was originally because I was getting overheated but they occur when I am inside as well and at random times."
"Are you having any other problems like any pains or a change in your everyday routine?"
"Nothing unusual I have a bigger appetite than before I came here but that's not really unusual."
"Hm" He looked up from his notes he was taking and smiled at me reassuringly.
"Would you mind laying down I have a theory but it is very rare. Have you been sexually active recently?"
My eyes widened at that question blushing a bit as I laid down answering.
"I have only had sex once but it has been over a month since."
He looked at me as he moved his wand over my stomach smiling. I could tell he was trying to comfort me but his questions left me confused at why he would even ask them.
"Now Mr. Evans I just have one more question were you the bottom or the top when you had sex with your partner?"
I was so embarrassed I hadn't even told him I was gay and he guessed it without a doubt in his mind. I was sure that my entire body was now as red as the Weasley's hair.
"Bottom."
He smiled once again.
"Ah then I just need to perform one more spell."
Going back to my stomach he waved his wand over it before two lights appeared out of my stomach glowing with a pale blue light.
"There you are Mr. Evans you are pregnant with twins."
I don't know why but I started to cry. But I knew it wasn't because I was sad in fact it was quite opposite. I was happy it was the happiest day of my life because I now had a piece of Tom that I had been craving. I couldn't keep my true self from Lucifer after that since I knew I would have to have regular checkups. I knew I wouldn't have been able to hide it. Turns out that he was okay with it he was actually happy that I had left and was out of England. The news that he got from there about me always made him mad on how I seemed to be a weapon to them and if I did something wrong they would turn against me. I had to listen to him rant a bit on how I was just a kid and shouldn't have to go through anything I did in the first place. We ended up becoming fast friends and I was happy I had someone to talk to I was still sad that the one person I love the one that helped me make these beautiful ones that I now carry hated me and did not trust me. Hated me so much that I was now hiding from him. But no matter how much I want to change that factor it was unavoidable. But even though he hated me and would probably kill me the next time he saw me, I knew that I had given my mate a family. One that was very strong magically especially his children. The first time the twins used magic I was thoroughly shocked because I dint know that they could do magic while still in the womb. Lucifer told me that it was very rare but with strong parents it shouldn't have come as a surprise. I was in a toy store trying to figure out what to put in the children's' room when two stuffed animal came toward me floating around my stomach and playing with each other. On was a snake with emerald scales and red eyes and the other was a kitten with black fur and emerald eyes. When I grabbed them in mid air they didn't fight me and I guess I was still in shock for I paid for them and left and was walking down the street when I was stopped by Lucifer with a worried expression on his face. It turned out I was crying and I realized it was because my babies knew who their fathers were and that they knew what had happened. They knew that their father was gone but not lost and that maybe one day he could come back to us. Maybe one day he would be able to love the family that was created for him. Love the family that loved him.
It seemed that when I told Lucifer the news of the babies' magic that gave him even more concern for alarm. Apparently a male pregnancy was very risky and that having a early birth could cause complications. I was already at risk with twins but now that the boys showed signs of advanced wandless magic I was even more at a risk. A male pregnancy usually last until seven months and the incident at the toy store occurred when I was 5 months along. Because of that Lucifer made it his sole duty to come visit me once a day for checkups. I was getting tired of Lucifer's hovering so much that when he told me his lover was back in town I couldn't get him out that door fast enough. Not that he didn't fight me tooth and nail to stay. Who knew that that would be the day I really needed him.
"Lucifer you do not need to worry I have my emergency portkey in case I start to feel anything unusual I will use it."
I said pushing Lucifer out the door; or trying to.
"But Harry…"
"No buts your lover is probably mad that I have kept you to myself for so long already. You know he doesn't come to town that often and that he can't stay to long. You told me you haven't seen him in seven months. You also told me that last time you barely got to see him at all."
"But Harry…"
"I said no I am six months along and have one more month I have been taking good care of myself and I know I can manage one day without you here hovering. Now go before I hex you."
And with that I gave one final push and locked the door in his face. I leaned against in exhaustion. I loved Lucifer like a brother but sometimes I just needed my space.
