A New Life
Chapter 11
Voldemort froze. "What?" He sounded shocked.
"My water broke." Lily repeated.
"But the babies aren't supposed to come until December!" Voldemort's already pale complexion went even paler.
"Well that's not going to happen, we're having them today." Lily breathed wincing at the pain of the contractions. "Go get Evelyn."
Voldemort hurriedly threw floo powder into the fireplace and the familiar green flames roared to life. "Evelyn the babies are coming."
Voldemort watched as Evelyn stepped through the grate and brushed herself off. "So soon?"
Voldemort shrugged at his old friend and watched as she walked up to the bed to check on Lily. Two hours later Voldemort was thrown bodily out of the bedroom by Evelyn when Lily had started threatening to castrate him for getting her pregnant again. She even had her wand pointing at him, ready to say the curse that was on her lips, when Evelyn quickly disarmed her and practically frog marched him out the room, slamming the door in his face.
So Voldemort had spent several hours with Emily, having no wish to be anywhere near his Death Eaters. The duo both flinched when they heard extremely colorful words being yelled by Lily. Voldemort had actually blushed when he heard Lily yelling where exactly he could stick his manhood if he got her pregnant ever again.
"I never knew Mum had those words in her vocabulary." Emily commented after a few minutes.
"Neither did I but I'm sure it's the pain talking."
What seemed like an eternity passed when finally Evelyn came thundering down the stairs, a joyous smile on her face.
"Congratulations Tom!" She said happily. "Get yourself upstairs, your wife and sons are waiting for you."
Voldemort stared at his best friend. "I have sons?"
"Yes, honestly Tom go up there before I let Emily see the little dears first!" Evelyn grabbed the girl's, who she viewed as her grandchild, hand and started to lead her up the stairs. She looked back at Voldemort and sighed when she saw he didn't move an inch. "Stop acting so shocked and get your bony arse up here now!"
Voldemort glared indignantly at the busty woman. "I do not have a bony arse, Evelyn, and kindly stop cursing in front of Emily."
"You shouldn't be talking Dad, you're doing it too." Emily felt the need to point out. "Hurry up I want to see my brothers."
Voldemort finally started to walk towards the stairs. Evelyn pulled Emily up the rest of the stairs and walked into Lily's room. Lily was sitting, propped up by pillows, in the middle of the bed. She looked really tired, sweat covered her pale face but she was smiling lovingly at the two bundles in both her arms.
Emily was pushed gently into the room by Evelyn. "Is that…?" She asked unsure of what to say, her eyes glued to the bundles that were her brothers.
"Emily." Lily said her voice full of warmth and love. "Come meet your new brothers."
Emily walked nervously to her Mum's side and leaned against the bed, her hands bracing herself, and peered at the newborn closest to her. He had chubby pink cheeks and a tuft of jet black hair. His eyes were closed so she had no idea what color they were. A fat little fist was clutching at the pastel green blanket he was wrapped in.
"They're identical?" Emily asked.
Lily nodded.
"What are their names?"
"Ethan." Lily nodded toward the baby that was closest to Emily. "And Ryan."
"Hello Ethan." Emily cooed brushing a finger gently across his chubby cheek. "I'm your big sister we have two other siblings who are twins too. You and Ryan will meet Harry and Roslyn during Christmas hols."
"Would you like to hold him?" Lily asked.
"Can I?" Emily's whole face lit up.
Lily called for Evelyn and ordered Emily to sit on the bed next to her. Emily did as she was told as Evelyn bustled in, looking a little annoyed. The older woman took Ethan in her arms and transferred him into his sister's arms. Evelyn stepped back when Emily was holding the child correctly and smiled.
Emily gazed at Ethan's chubby little face in awe and smiled widely when his eyelids fluttered open revealing beautiful blue eyes.
"Not even a day old and already he has his sister wrapped around his finger." Evelyn commented.
"Where's Tom?" Lily questioned realizing her lover was no where to be seen. "I would have thought he would want to be the first to see his sons."
Evelyn sighed and walked out of the room only to return a second later, dragging a startled Dark Lord by his robes. She pushed him toward the bed which caused him to stumble.
He straightened and threw a glare at Evelyn before sitting on the other side of Lily. Lily carefully gave Voldemort Ryan. Voldemort cradled Ryan in the crook of his arm and studied his peaceful features.
"He's beautiful." Voldemort commented leaning over and kissing Lily on the lips gently. "And so tiny."
"They're four months premature, Tom, of course their tiny." Evelyn said as she walked up to Emily and carefully lifted Ethan into her arms. "Serena!"
A woman who was a year or two younger than Lily walked into the room, her long black hair tied at the base of her neck. She picked up the fragile newborn from the Dark Lord.
"Their beautiful Lily." She said her dark eyes sparkling. "You did great."
Lily smiled tiredly at the woman who had been her friend since she was thirteen years old. "Thanks Serena."
Serena nodded at Lily and Emily before sweeping out of the room, Ryan's tiny form bundled in her arms. Evelyn left with Ethan a few seconds later, leaving the three sitting on the bed.
After making sure that Lily was alright, Voldemort scooted himself off his bed and walked out of the room, following behind Evelyn, determined to be with his boys.

Harry sighed as he sank into one of the couches that were in the Slytherin common room. It was about two hours after dinner so the common room was littered with other Slytherins talking and laughing with friends. Roslyn was sitting beside him, her head on his shoulder. She had come from Gryffindor Tower to help Harry write a letter to their family about a half hour ago and now was falling asleep on Harry's shoulder.
"Today was such a long day." Draco groaned sitting in an armchair that wasn't occupied.
"I know." Harry agreed. "It didn't help that we kept getting lost."
He shifted his position slightly making his twin sigh softly and snuggle further into his shoulder. Harry reached up and started to run his fingers through her dark mane, knowing it was how their mother used to send her to sleep instantly.
Pansy perched herself on the arm of the armchair Draco was sitting on, a scowl on her pug like face. There was ink on her robes from Peeves dropping ink wells on the students.
"These were new robes." She snarled. "And that fucking poltergeist ruined them."
"Pansy calm down. I'm sure the ink will come out." Harry said. "I mean your robes are black and so is the ink, who cares?"
Pansy glared at Harry. "Who cares?! Who cares?! I care! It got on the trim, the emerald trim Potter!" She sneered.
Harry rolled his eyes.
Draco covered his mouth to stifle his laughter. He ducked his head when Pansy turned her glare at him.
"Oh now your going to laugh at me?" She demanded reaching out a hand and tugging on a piece of Draco's platinum hair.
"We should probably take Roslyn to bed." Harry said.
"We are not taking her back up to Gryffindor Tower." Draco protested.
Harry shook his head at his childhood friend. "No I meant that she go bunk with Pansy. You don't mind do you?" He asked Pansy.
Pansy smiled. "Of course I wouldn't mind, Harry."
Harry smiled his thanks and gently shook his sister awake. "It's time to go to bed, Rosy."
"I am in bed." Roslyn muttered sleepily into Harry's shoulder.
"No your not, you're in the Slytherin common room."
Pansy stood up and walked over to where Harry and Roslyn were sitting, kneeling in front of Roslyn. "You'll be sleeping in my dorm tonight." She informed her friend.
Roslyn nodded and sat up, rubbing her eyes and standing up, following Pansy across the common room and up the stairs. Harry watched as his twin stumbled up the stairs that led to the dorms, a smile on his face.
