Sorry for the huge delay. Life has gotten in the way and my co-writer chavelaprincess lost inspiration. Here is 21 and we are now working on 22 and it will be out soon.
The months had gone by faster than I'd thought they would. I thought my pregnancy, as it was my first and I am so young, not to mention that since I was pregnant with twin girls and all their hormones that time would be crawling miserably by. But it's not that bad; though I've taken to waddling and my ankles have indeed become swollen and my fingers puffy, it's not as bad as it could be. I could be like Narcissa Malfoy and could have trouble sleeping in every position but sitting up straight. I look down, patting my belly and smile thankfully at my girls. There is only a few weeks of class left before summer vacation and I cannot wait to have some time to myself. The pending exams have everyone feeling stressed and irritable, Severus and I more than the rest with the pending birth of our girls.
"Morwyn, Morwyn are you in here?" Severus asks stirring me from my thoughts.
"Yes, I'm in the bath Severus, my back was hurting quite a bit and you were reading, so I came in here to relax." A thought occurred to me, "Severus, could you come here please?"
He stepped into the room, and took a seat on the stool next to the bath, sinking gracefully in that as he is in all other things. He had nothing impeding his movements; I wanted to take the muggle route and slap him.
"Severus, I have a terrible craving that I've been ignoring, but I can't anymore" His frown took on a new level of intensity.
"Morwyn, it is late…" I pouted sadly making his frown turn into a full on scowl. "Not with the time difference." I smile sweetly.
His scowl was now back to a frown, but that of confusion. "Time difference, Morwyn, where in the hell are you sending me now?"
I took a breath, "I can't help it Severus, I've been craving this for months, and knew that I couldn't have any, but I am far enough into the pregnancy that I have to have some" I watched as he opened his mouth to cut in - "NO! Please don't interrupt me. I've followed all the rules of the pregnancy that have been laid down by you and the mediwitches. I want this, please will you just do this one favor for me Severus? I would do it myself, but overseas apparition is not recommended while pregnant." I hold his eyes and he nods, very reluctantly I can see. "Canada, where I am from, there is a muggle coffee place called Tim Hortons, I want a coffee." He scowls and opens his mouth to argue. "Please Severus." I beg, allowing myself to sink deeper into the water, closing my eyes and lean back against the bath despite him angrily slamming the door as he leaves our quarters.
%$%$%
I was lounging on the divan, curled up with a book when Severus came storming into the room, scowl firmly in place and a coffee in hand and a bag in the other. "You better appreciate this witch, you have no idea what I've been through for that mess!" Coffee firmly in hand, I brought it to my mouth and before I could thank him, he was charging into our bath and slamming the door behind him.
I would concern myself with asking him what was wrong, but I currently held liquid salvation in my hands and couldn't be bothered. Months of being denied something I loved so, craved sometimes more than I craved Severus… he could wait.
Halfway through my cup, which I'd been drinking with my eyes closed and relishing every drop, I hear the bathroom door open and barely make out the soft tread of his footfall back into the sitting room.
I know my mercurial mood changes have been a point of contingence, as Severus sees himself as the only person who is allowed to be a sour bastard, but it seems that this pregnancy is happening to him and I've done what I've been told so I was not going to let him ruin this for me. Brewing fight be damned.
I open my eyes as I feel a dip in the seat and look over at him. "This time Witch. I've had enough, this may be wearing on you physically, but do you not think this… situation is affecting me as well?!"
"I don't know Severus, is it? Perhaps using your words to express yourself rather than just storming about, like you do on every other day, may come across clearer?" He opened his mouth to retort what I know would be scathingly and braced myself "I have two girls coming, two children to look after, I don't need another child in my mate. You have not once stopped to fucking think about this, not fucking once stopped to use that brain of yours about if I even wanted this, or if I'm just going to muck this all up."
I paused to let that sink in before delivery what I knew would be a low blow, but no less than what he deserved. "And let us not forget Severus, that I did not impregnate myself."
I brace for what I assume will be a catastrophic burst of temper, staring angrily down at the floor. I hear him sigh and he stands taking my hands and pulling me up to my feet.
"Morwyn, please don't, not that, anything but that? Do you think I don't regret doing this to you? Do you think I don't hate myself every single time I see you sick, or in an ounce of pain? It was selfish, I know that, I'm not blind to this. But the one thing I do not regret is having you in my life. Our family is one thing that I can not regret in this fucked up life I've had, you are the only thing that has ever been mine and mine alone." He placed his palms against my swollen belly and leaned into me, pressing his face into my neck and breathing me in, placing kisses along my sensitive flesh. I wrap my arms around his thin waist and nestle my face into his shirt.
He tips my chin up and lowers his lips to mine, his kiss so remarkably tender that I melt into him. He brushes my pregnancy thickened hair out of my face and looks into my eyes. I see his eyes dilate as he is filled with passion, pulling me tighter against him and covering my lips with his again. He slowly starts backing me towards the couch until the backs of my knees connect and I begin to feel myself tip back, he clasps his hands behind my back stopping me from dropping and slowly guides me down onto the soft leather cushions. Kneeling in front of me he gently leans his forehead against my belly and rests there for a moment. He kneads my swollen ankles and starts to slide his beautiful long fingered hands up the outside of my legs, massaging my flesh, I groan in pleasure, letting my head tip back and close my eyes, it's been a long time since Severus had put his hands on me, too long. All the while he is raising my robe, and before I know it, it is pushed up to the very top of my thighs, and his hands are sweeping between my knees as he settles in the V of my thighs, leaning in and nipping at the tender skin, a sweet pain from his sharp teeth before he laved at the sting and makes his way up towards my center. I gasp feeling my body responding to his touch and entangle my fingers into his hair pulling him closer to my aching core. He grasps my hips and with one strong tug slides me down to the edge of the sofa and runs his rough hands over my swollen belly. With the flick of his wrist I feel the cool dungeon air as it hits my flaming quim causing a chill to run through me. I feel his hot breath tickle my flesh as he leans in closer, slowly lapping at my moist heat. My toes curl into the carpet and I pull my knees back to my chest and hook them over his shoulders and yank him hard against my body as I lock my ankles to the middle of his strong lean back.
His lips close around my clit and he begins to suck, pulling the folds of my labia into his mouth and drinking me in, trying to draw my orgasm from me faster than I expect. Just when I think that I missing that elusive pain and pleasure mixture that I need, he retreats enough to nip at the outside of my lips and dipping back down to plunge his tongue deep inside and I break. My body shattering and I'm lost to him. When I regain my senses he is hovering over me, his lips ghosting down over my neck and finding the swell of my breasts, his hands clumsily tugging at the buttons of my shirt.
As the first few come undone, the walls light up green as our floo comes to life, none other than Minerva's face coming into view.
I yelp and scramble up the cushions as her stern voice fills the echoing room, "Severus, you were to be here 20 minutes ago. You can go back to ravishing that poor girl after!"
"Merlin Minerva, must you be such a bloody thorn in my side?"
"Oh Severus, cut the dramatics dear, we have been waiting for you and can not continue to do so. You are Head of House and we need you here."
"Yes of course," Severus started out clipped as the floo died out. "You nagging crone of a witch." he finished as I burst into fit of laughter.
"Oh Severus, that mouth of yours is going to get you in a world of trouble one day."
"Funny really, you weren't complaining about my mouth a few moments ago, witch." He smirks and leaning over me again his hands resume their work on my buttons and his mouth dropping back to the swell of my breasts. He presses his leg between my thighs, pushing them gently apart and as he settles in I place my hands against his chest before he can get too comfortable nudge him back. "Severus, you need to go to the meeting."
He growls unhappily and pushes himself off the sofa adjusting himself all the while and storms from the room with a sweep of his midnight robes behind him.
After a moment I pull myself slowly from the divan on shaky legs and as I take my first step my hands fly to my belly, a sharp pain pulling a gasp from me. I know from what I've read of the muggle medical books that this could easily be referred to as a Braxton Hicks contraction, but with still a little over a month left I ignore it and continue on. I make it to the edge of our bed and reach the end of it in enough time to grab the thick post as a another sharp pain, this one overwhelming in its ferocity and just as it is about to let up I feel a rush of warm fluid down my legs that I know is not urine and panic sets in.
I can't catch my breath and spots appear before my sight, my last ditch effort at control is to call Gee to me. As my elf's name wheezes out of me, my last thought before the room goes black is of needing Severus.
