I just wanted to clarify in case you didn't get it. Take the whole HP time line and move everyone up a year, first year never happened. The gang started their first year on the events of second year and so on. Ginny started her first year on the events of third year. So the Triwiz happened in Harry's third year/Ginny's second, Umbridge came in their fourth year/Ginny's third, and Sirius didn't die. This story starts on the gangs fifth year/ when the new professor takes potions and Snape has DADA. The battle of the Department of Mysteries never happened. ( Battle)
"Your room, of course," I smiled.
He chuckled. "Of course."
I skipped off to the shower and savered the warmth against my skin. I could live in paradise like this, for good.
It had been seven months since I told Fred I was pregnant and today was the big day! I made my hair black and curly, before heading down to the first floor, where all my wedding things were taking place. Kreature was finishing the cake, Alice and Rosalie were doing alterations to the dress, and my mother was pacing back and forth.
"You look great, Mother," I said hugging her. She smiled and looked down at her silver dress.
"Is it too much?"
"Never."
I was pulled into the living room by Alice, who poked at proded me into my dress. "Okay, here's your garter. It's mine and I want it back," Alice warned.
She ducked under my dress before I could say anything and I felt her cold hands run up my leg. "Alice, really?"
She came back out a second later. "You know you liked it."
I blushed. "I did not! Alice!"
"I got you to blush though! It's just what we needed."
My mom put some blue clips into my hair and I took a deep breath, looking into the mirror. I looked amazing. Alice had done my make up. Rosalie had pinned back my hair and put in my veil. Ginny had given me some tequila to calm the nerves. Hermione handed me my vows that I'd written, and gave me a reassuring smile. My mother and Narcissa were talking amongst themselves at how excited they were.
I heard music start and looked at Alice who was smiling. "It's time!"
She dashed to the grooms's room, AKA the family tree room and told them to apparate to the church, or rather, the beach.
We landed in a tent that was behind the chairs and Alice dashed over to the boys and called them to order.
George and Ginny walked out, being the best man or maid of honor. Then Hermione and Ron. Harry and Luna. Alice and Jasper. Emmett and Rosalie. Edward and Angelina. Then it was me. My mom came to my side as the music changed.
"Alright, deep breath, keep your eyes on Fred."
I nodded and she set the pace. I met Fred's eyes immediately and smiled. The walk seemed forever but I finished and my mom placed my hand in Fred's.
I wasn't paying any attention to the preist until he said, "The bride and groom have written their own vows and wish to present. Fred, if you could go first."
Fred smiled and pulled out a piece of paper. "Bellatrix Raven Black, I promise to love you and let you have whatever side of the bed you want, until the end of time." The crowd laughed. "I promise to be there when you wake up in the morning. And be there when you go to sleep. I promise to give you a shoulder to cry on, though you don't need to cry because I'm awesome enough to scare the tears away." Laughs again. "And I promise to never let you get hurt or scared or anything. I love you and I will love you, no matter what happens. Whether its getting lost in a maze, falling in a hole, which you most likely would do, or whether we're rich or poor, I don't care. I will stand by your side. I love you, Bella."
I smiled against the tears.
"The bride wishes to share her vows. Bella, if you will."
"Fred," I started.
"Yes?" he asked, smiling.
I giggled. "Fred, even though you can be really funny at times, you have a serious side, even if you told me to keep that side a secret. We don't want to ruin your reputation," I chuckled. "Even if you were sick or healthy, I would be the faithful wife and not tell you to get over it. I promise to love and to cherish what we have and never ever will I fall into that hole, if I can help it. I'd try to find my way through that maze as long as you were on the other side, and I will love you until the end of time. I will give you a shoulder to cry on, because we all have our moments. I'll be with you through all the jokes and pranks, and don't worry. I won't tell Molly." The crowd laughed, even Molly. "I love you, Fred, forever."
"Forever and ever."
The priest said a few more gibberish and then, "I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Fred grabbed me and swung me around, placing a kiss on my lips so soft and delacate, but full of love and passion.
"Hello, Mrs. Weasley," Fred whispered.
"Mr. Weasley, I like the sound of that."
"Me too, he smiled. Me too."
He grabbed my hand and pulled me down the aisle, where everyone congratulated us over and over again. Finally it was reception time and I turned to Fred. "Do I get our first dance together, Mr. Weasely?"
"I feel old. You don't even call my dad that."
I smiled. "Come on!"
"Fine. Fred, are you happy?"
"Extremely so," he smiled.
"Alright, everyone! The new Mr. and Mrs. Weasley are in time for their first dance together, and then Bella can get out and about with everyone, more guys, right, darling?"
"Shut up, Seamus!" I shouted, laughing.
Fred laughed and pulled me into a tight embrace, us dancing about. The song was perfect for us. Airplanes by B.O.B. and Hayley Williams. Fred and I loved the song. He did the rap parts while I did the singing when we listened to them at home.
"I could really use a wish right now," I whispered to Fred.
"What wish would that be?"
"Kiss me?" I whispered to him.
He smiled. "I'll be the genie and grant that wish."
He kissed me softly on the lips and I melted into it. I put my arms around his neck and he pulled away. "There are little ones here."
"Scorpius can hardly comprehend what's going on to begin with."
"What about Fleur's children?"
I shrugged. "They'll live."
The song ended and suddenly Emmett was in front of me.
"I get the next dance."
I laughed. "Alright, alright. Dance away."
Of course, the next dance had to be a slow song and he gripped my ass. "Really, Em? I know I look good but that is no need to touch my ass."
I saw Alice and Rose laughing. "Those bitches told you to do this, didn't they?"
"I was the only one that would. Jasper won't even hug you without being afraid to hurt you."
I sighed. "Alright, let's tango."
"This isn't a tango."
"Shut up and dance with me or I'll dance with someone else."
Just as I finished, Em sweeped me around and I saw Fred smile as he danced with Victorie.
I rolled my eyes and looked at Emmett. He smiled lazily at me. "You know, I have way better moves than Fred does."
"How would you know?" I asked, blushing.
"I may have snuck in on you two."
My jaw dropped. "No fucking way," I whispered. "That's it, this dance is over."
Alice and Rosalie were laughing so hard they were leaning on each other. I walked over to them. "You are so lucky your vampires because I will kick your asses when we get home."
Fred came over to me. "What's wrong?"
"Kill Emmett for me, please?"
"What did he do?" Fred asked, concerned.
"Let them explain, and maybe they won't survive either."
I felt a tug on my dress and I looked down. "Scorpius! What can I do for you?"
"Can I dance wif you?"
I smiled. "Of course!"
He took my hand and pulled me out to the middle of the dance floor. He may only be two and a half, but he sure was smart. I leaned down and he took my hands and we danced, laughing and smiling.
When the song ended, I turned to my next opponent, Carlisle. "Can I have this dance, Mrs. Weasley?"
I laughed. "Don't call me that. It sounds too old. And yes, you can."
I took Carlisle's arm and we danced. "You are an amazing dancer, Carlisle," I said when we finished.
"Three hundred years to perfect my skills, Bella. I try."
I smiled. "You succeeded."
Teddy bounded up to me. "Can I dance with you, Cousin Bella!"
"Why not?" I grinned. He was five, adorable, and totally lovable. I danced with him to an upbeat song and spun him around a few times.
"Thanks, Teddy. That was fun. You are my best dance partner, just don't tell Fred."
He giggled and ran off towards Fred. I rolled my eyes and spotted someone I really wanted to dance with. I walked over to him. "Care to dance?"
His head shot up and he looked so miserable. "Really?"
"Of course."
I pulled Harry out to the dance floor and saw Fred's wary eyes. I gave him a warning glance and Jasper and Emmett pounced on him. "Dude you are so whipped!" I heard Emmett say. "Did you see that look she gave you, man!"
I laughed and Harry put his arms on my waist. "You look great tonight, you know?"
I smiled. "Thanks, Harry. You look nice as well."
He did. Even if he still wanted me, he looked nice any way. He was better than Edward was taking this. Edward was sitting in the corner, glaring at Fred.
The song ended, but Harry still hadn't let go. "Harry, I need to find someone else. I have too many people to dance with."
He nodded and I spotted Sirius. I smiled and dragged him out there. "Bella?"
"I haven't danced with my favorite uncle yet, I think now is the perfect time!"
He laughed. "I'm your only uncle."
I nodded, remembering Lucius and Ted. "That's why your my favorite."
He laughed and we danced to Don't You Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me.
"Why don't you go back into the dating world, Sirius?" I asked.
He laughed. "Because every girl is scared to approach me."
I rolled my eyes. "I'm sure that's not the case."
"Maybe I'll fine someone soon, then. I have to continue the Black line after all."
I rolled my eyes. "Sirius, you'll find someone! Look, what about her? She's a good friend of mine. Muggleborn, yes, and goes to the Salem School in America, but she is sweet."
"She's your age!"
I smiled. "Angela is very mature for her age and you are, what? Fifteen years older than her? Twenty? Just get talking to her, cougar!"
He laughed. "I'm a dog and I don't think so."
I sighed. "Fine. Go hang out with Lupin or someone. Lick your ass in the corner, because we all know you like to do that when you're a dog. I don't care."
I walked over to Angela Webber. I invited her about three months ago and she flew here with Alice, because Alice was in New York, where Angela now lives, and they met up with me.
"Hey, Ang."
"Bella! This a fabulous wedding!"
I smiled. "Thanks, girl. So, did you find any guys?"
She sighed. "Well, I have my sights on Harry, but he's really hitting it off with Luna. And then there's this mysterious guy, the guy you were just dancing with."
I smiled. "Sirius Black. My godfather, but I swear he's cool. Love him to death. He's Lupin's age, so about as old as any parent that's our age."
She sighed. "I'm going to be single forever!"
"If you like Sirius talk to him! He looks younger, so he's not a problem! And I assure you he's single and looking!"
Angela flushed. "I-I can't. He's practically as old as my father."
"You can at least be friends with him. I'm not going to force you onto him and just talk. Nothing romantic."
She sighed. "Alright. But if this goes bad I'm taking it out on you."
"I'm pregnant, darling. You can't yell at a pregnant woman."
She rolled her eyes. "I'll wait until that thing comes out of you. Then the yelling begins."
I smiled. "That's more like it, Ang!" I called after her.
She laughed and I found my next victim. "Care to dance?" I asked Arthur. He took my arm and we danced to some oldie. "Fred better treat you right."
"Oh, he does Arthur. Don't worry about it."
"Where are you going for your honeymoon?" he asked.
I shrugged. "Someplace sunny was all Fred told me."
Arthur laughed. "My son keeps the best secrets."
"Yes, he does, but George has to know, so maybe I can get it out of him. I don't know, but I'm gonna try."
"You do that," Arthur said as the song ended. I kissed his cheek as George bounded up to me.
"You know, it feels like I got married today, not Fred," he said.
I glared at him. "You watched the whole thing through Fred's eyes?"
"Well, I do see you differently through them. Maybe its all Fred's thoughts and emotions. Whatever it is, mate, you got yourself a lucky guy and a smashing brother in the process."
I glared at him. "Shut the hell up, George. No one likes you."
He smiled. "That's where you're wrong. Everyone loves me!"
I laughed. "No they don't! Why don't you go have this argument with Angelina?"
He shrugged. "Why? I can provoke my little sister now."
I shook my head. "You're impossible, you know that?"
"Oh, mate, of course I know!"
The song ended and Ron asked me to dance.
Just as the reception was about to end, Kingsley sent his patronus.
"Hogwarts is under attack!"
Everything happened at once. Fred came to my side. People apparated to Hogshead, where Harry said there was a safe passage. And things went crazy. In less than three minutes, it was just Fred and I in the reception hall.
"Bella, you aren't fighting in your condition," Fred said sternly.
"Fuck it!" I shouted. "I have to fight, Fred. They've put me in Azkaban! I'm fighting!"
"You're pregnant!"
"Then I'll have the child there if it comes to it! Fred, I'm going!"
I apparated with a pop and landed at Hogshead. Aberforth directed me to a portait and I climbed in just as Fred apparated. I made it to the room of requirement and saw Harry. I rushed over to him. "What's the plan?"
"We attack. McGonnagall is evacuating the children, all those of age are given the choice to fight or leave."
I nodded. "We just going to do this. Finish it all. Kill them all?"
They all nodded. "I have to die," Harry said suddenly.
I narrowed my eyes in confusion. "What? Harry, that's insane."
Ginny looked horrified. She still loved him, I knew it, but he hurt her and he asked for it.
"I'm the last horcrux," he whispered. He saw my confused expression. "What I went searching for in seventh year."
"And you have to die?"
"He has to kill me himself," Harry said.
"A sacrifice," I whispered. I then realized what I was still wearing. "Oh shit!" I whispered. I transfigured my wedding gown into jeans and a tank top before turning to Harry. "You need to survive until the end."
"We'll see what happens, first," Harry said sternly. I nodded and found Fred. I walked to his side. "We have to fight, baby."
He looked pained. "You are not leaving my side, do you hear me?"
I nodded.
"If you go into labor, I want you to say a safe word and I'll take you to Madam Pomphrey."
"What's the safe word?" I asked him.
"Sahara."
I nodded, repeating it over and over in my head. Alice and Rose were standing beside me in an instant.
"We're guarding the most valuable," Alice said. "Lupin is assigning us to certain people to protect."
I nodded. "Be careful."
She nodded and Lupin called attention to everyone. We all quieted and looked at him.
"The vampires are going to be guarding select people," Lupin said. Everyone nodded, expecting this. "Rosalie will be with Bella, because she is pregnant and due at any moment." I rolled my eyes.
"I'll survive, Lupin!" I shouted.
He chuckled. "Emmett is with Harry, because he is the only one that can kill the Dark Lord. He needs to make it to the end."
Emmett automatically went next to Harry.
"Alice will be with Ginny. Esme is with Hermione. Jasper with Luna. Edward will be with Cho Chang, because you are a friend of Harry's that he might want to get to. Carlisle will be with Neville. Sorry everyone else but-"
"We're here! We came as soon as we could!" I heard a voice shout. I turned and saw six vampires.
"There seem to be more vampires," Lupin said. "What are your names?"
"Tanya, Carmen, Eleazer, Irina, Kate, and Laurent Denali."
My heart stopped when I heard the last name. "Alright, Tanya, you're guarding Molly Weasley. Carmen, you're gaurding Tonks. Eleazer, you're guarding Angela Webber. Kate, Irina, and Laurent, protect as many people from our side, that are in this room, as possible. Not all of them will be fighting, but just in case. That will be all!"
We all got around and Fred stayed by my side as I exited the Room of Requirements, Rosalie in front of me.
"We're going to the stay here," I told Fred and Rose. "Just to look around, guard the RoR."
They nodded and we paced seventh floor halls. I spotted Rabastian and Rodolphus immediately.
I nodded to Fred and he pulled out his wand. "Love you Fred," I said.
"Love you too, Bella."
"Get ready," I whispered. I raised my left hand and then my right with my wand. "One," I whispered, "Two. . . Three."
I placed my bubbles around them and they raised in the air. They knew immediately what was happening and used the protego spell and fell from the bubbles.
"Sectumsempra!" Rabastian yelled at me.
I felt my arm get a large gasp. Rosalie growled and stood in front of me and Fred. Fred winked at me.
"Petrificus Totalus! Stupify!"
"Bombarda!" Rodolphus yelled. The ceiling above us started to fall. Rosalie grabbed me and Fred and tried to move us but it was too late. Fred gave a shout as it fell on him, Rosalie partly covered. I stood up, unaffected, but a sharp pain in my stomach. I ignored it and turned to the two of them. I placed them in a bubble.
"Petrificus Totalus!" I shouted as they fell in the air. They went stiff and I turned to Fred, who was being helped by Rosalie. His eyes were shut and there was a soft smile on his face.
"Rose. . ."I whispered. "Please tell me he's. . ." I couldn't finish.
She didn't finish my sentence. "We have to take him to the Hospital Wing," She said instead.
"Rosalie Lillian Hale Cullen! Is he - is he alive? Please tell me he's alive," I whimpered, placing my hand on his neck, trying to feel for a pulse. "Fred, wake up. Baby, I love you so much, please wake up." Rose grabbed my arm and pulled me up.
"Go to the Room of Requirements. Tell them that this hall is free and people can roam. Tell them to be careful. I'm taking Fred to Madam Pomphrey."
Before I could respond, she dashed off at vampire speed with Fred. I opened the door to the RoR and Harry raised his wand at me. He sighed when he saw me. "What happened? We heard a crash?"
"Fred's been hit. Rodolphus and Rabastian are petrified a few halls down. Rosalie's taking Fred to the Hospital wing."
He nodded and ushered me in. "I'll take care of Rodolphus and Rabastian."
"Be careful, Harry," I whispered, no longer talking with emotions in my voice. Why wouldn't Rosalie answer my question? He had to be alive, right? It was our wedding night! I don't even know where we were going for our honeymoon! He was suppossed to surprise me, but George knew. I was going to ask him. . . "George!" I shouted.
His head shot up in the crowd and I rushed to him. "What's going on in Fred's mind?" I begged. "Please tell me you hear him?"
"What happened, first?" George asked.
"Rodolphus and Rabastian were there and we fought them but they made the ceiling fall and it hit Fred and Rosalie. Rosalie got him to the Hospital Wing, but told me to go here. She wouldn't answer any of my questions. Tell me right now. Do you hear him?" I begged on the last bit.
He zoned out for minute, and smiled a little at me, but it was sad, like he'd break down. "He's fine, I'm sure. His minds blank, because I think he's unconscious. Don't worry about him. You need to concentrate on you and the war."
He walked off and talked to Harry for a minute before walking out of the RoR. Harry came over to me. "Madam Pomphrey will take care of him until you can get to him," he said sincerely.
"This wasn't suppossed to happen. Especially today. . ." I trialed off. "Oh, god, that sounded so selfish."
"It's your day, your wedding day. You can sound as selfish as you want. Just don't do anything rash, okay?"
I nodded and grabbed my wand tighter. "I'll kill Fred if he's playing a prank, I swear! It's bloody like him to do that."
He smiled a sad smile. "I'd like to witness that."
I sighed and dropped my head in my hands. "He better be okay," I muttered. "Harry, you can't do anything rash either."
"It's going to happen eventually."
I looked at him, "I want warning when you're leaving. I'll be right behind you and I'll kill him myself."
He laughed as Rosalie came back in. She looked at me. "You going back out there or are you going to stay here?"
"I'm going back out there, Rose. I have to fight. He wants me too."
I stood wordlessly after that and walked out the door, to run into Snape.
"Bella," he muttered.
"Snape," I growled.
"I-"
"He fucking trusted you, Severus!" I whispered furiously to him. "Dumbledore trusted you and you killed him."
"Dumbledore planned it!" He whispered back, shocking me. "He wanted to die and he wanted me to kill him. It was all planned out. So the Dark Lord couldn't get the Elder Wand."
"You are kidding me, right?" I whispered, my eyes wide.
He handed me a bottle. "Take this and give them to Potter and tell him to go to Dumbledore's office. He needs to see these memories. Good luck, Bella."
"Good luck to you too, Professor," I said as he walked away. Harry came out of the RoR just as Snape turned the corner and I handed him the vial. "Go to Dumbledore's office and watch these memories," I said sternly.
"Can't it wait-" Harry said.
Emmett stood behind him, listening intently around us.
"Now, Harry. Snape made sure to tell you as soon as possible. Go there NOW!" I growled. He took the vial and motioned for Emmett to follow him. They ran off and I went down to the grounds, standing in the transfiguration courtyard.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't my darling cousin. . ." A voice drawled.
I turned and saw Draco. "Oh, Draco, what has Azkaban done to you?" I whispered, taking in his gaunt face, murderous glare, and pale, pale skin.
"It's made me into who my father wanted me to be!"
"I don't want to have to do this, Draco," I told him seriously.
"Then let me do it for you. The Dark Lord will be pleased to see you dead at my hand. Maybe I'll redeem myself for those years ago."
"Draco, don't you see-"
"Don't call me Draco!" He shouted suddenly. "I have to kill you just like I had to try to kill Dumbledore! He'll kill me when this is over."
"Draco, you deserve so much more than to follow him. Please, just put the wand-"
"Crucio!" He cried. I screamed in pain as I fell down. Rosalie helped me up and growled at Draco.
The spell stopped and I placed my bubble around him. There was a sharp pain in my middle, but again, I ignored it.
"Draco, your future was so bright with Astoria and little Scorpious. Do you know what I did today?" I asked him. He shook his head. "I danced with your son at my wedding. That's right, its my wedding today, and I have to fight in the bloody war. I don't want to kill you, Draco, I really don't."
Rosalie pulled me out of the way as a spell shot from behind me. I spun around and saw Dolohov. "Kill her, Draco!" Dolohov shouted. "Kill her and let's see her filthy traitor blood just like her mother!"
"You leave my mother out of this, Antonin!" I cried.
There was a sharp pain in my stomach and I gasped. "Oh, no fucking shit. You can not come out right now!" I screamed. Rosalie's eyes widened.
"You're-"
"Fucking Sahara is what's happening. That's the safe word. God, I can't do this."
I turned to Antonin and placed him in the bubble. "Rosalie, kill him. I'l tend to Draco."
Rosalie ran to Dolohov and I turned to Draco. "Draco-"
"Avada Kedavra!" he cried. I barely was able to dodge it. "Petrificus Totalus!" I shouted. I didn't want to kill him, at all. He fell to the ground, stiff as a board. I went up to him. "I'm sorry, Draco, but you left me no choice. The Order will decide your fate now. You may end up like Lucius."
Rosalie let limp Dolohov down, and I knew he was dead. I fell to my knees in pain as another contraction hit me.
"Rose, I need to get to Madam Pomphrey!" I said, calmly. She nodded and picked up Draco and I before running off towards the Hospital wing. She set Draco down by the door and then Madam Pomphrey came up to me. "My dear, what's ogin on?
"I'm in labor," I said calmly, my metamorphic powers losing control as I was hit with another contraction.
Madam Pomphrey's eyes widened and she pulled me over to a cot. "I need you to take your jeans off."
Rosalie ripped them off me and I glared at her. "So not cool, Rose."
"Do you want anyone here?"
I shook my head. "They are all fighting. Just, stay here and don't fucking let go of my hand."
She nodded and held my hand. Madam Pomphrey placed a sheet over me and ducked down. "Alright, you're not fully dilated. You are two centimeters. You need to be ten. I'm sorry, but you have to wait to have this kid."
I grit my teeth as another contraction hit me. "How long, would you say?" I asked.
"Could be an hour at the least, to about a day. It depends."
I shook my head, "I can't wait that long. I need to get out there and fight."
"You can't fight today or tomorrow from here on out. It is way too dangerous and you'll possibly pass out or die."
The next seven hours were torture. I watched as people came in injured and got healed, and then the dead started to pile up. Dolohov and Rodolphus were among them. The Order side was tragic: Collin Creevy, Harry's biggest fan, was dead along with Snape and Lupin. Lupin's death scarred me the most out of the five. Then came my mother, and she wasn't alive.
"Oh my god!" I gasped, horrified. I tried to get up, but Rosalie held me down.
"Get off of me! My mother's- she's- oh god!" I shouted.
Rosalie didn't let go and I groaned, sinking into the pillows behind me. Tears leaked from my eyes. My mother, the woman that switched sides for me, was dead and I couldn't even say anything to her still form.
Madam Pomphrey came up and looked at me. "Bella, you need to start pushing."
I bit my lip and took a deep breath. "Ready?" she asked. I nodded. "One, two, three, PUSH!"
I pushed and holy shit! It hurt! Felt like I was being ripped open down there. "Deep breath!" she told me when I stopped. "Alright, now. . . PUSH!"
It kept going on for what seemed like hours. Then I heard it. The most beautiful sound in the world. A baby's cry. My baby's cry. Madam Pomphrey cleaned it up with her wand and then wrapped it up, handing it to me. "It's a baby girl."
Tears were in my eyes. "Oh, she's beautiful," I whispered, her blue eyes staring at me, and her fuzzy muddy-black, red hair sticking out of the blanket. I turned to Rose. "Thanks for staying with me, Rose."
"I wasn't going to go anywhere anyways. It was the least I could do," she smiled. "What aer you going to name her?"
I took. . . my daughter. . .in and smiled. "Sahara Bellatrix Weasley-Black."
"Is that what you and Fred agreed upon?" Rosalie chuckled.
I shook my head. "We agreed upon Sofiya Australis, but the code word was Sahara and my mother's name. I think Fred would like it better anyway."
"Bella, about Fred. . ." Rose started, looking around.
My heart stopped, "No. I knew something was up. You and George were acting weird, like. . . like something bad happened. But it didn't. He's fine. He's just unconscious, right? He had a pulse when the ceiling f-fell, right?"
"Bella," Rosalie started and her tone was so sad that I already knew. "He passed upon impact."
"Oh my god!" I whispered, tears flowing down my face. I put my free hand and put it over my mouth, trying to keep my sobs in. My husband and mother were dead. But most of all. . . MY HUSBAND was dead! The man I literally went through hell and back for! He couldn't be dead. I refused to believe it.
"He can't be!" I protested quietly as I watched my daughter drift to sleep. "He will wake up. He's going to be fine. He's going to be fine," I whispered, trying to convince myself.
"I"m so sorry," she whispered.
I shook my head. "It's not your fault."
"If I would ahve moved faster. If I would have thrown him out of the wa-"
"Rose, he would have died if you threw him," I said softly, cutting her off. "I just can't believe it. Oh, god! Sahara will never- and I'll never- and. Oh, this is so bad."
Rosalie hugged me and my tears flowed in rivers. I stayed like that for some time before the baby in my arms started to cry.
"Shhh," I said instantly. My insticts took over. I cradled the girl to my chest as Rose let me go, admiring the child. "Sahara, shh, dear. It's all right. Everything's al-alright," I said, losing at the end. I quietly took a deep breath and rocked her back and forth. She got quiet and Madam Pomphrey handed me a potion.
"It's a stomach filling potion for the child, since we aren't in a proper hospital. It's totally safe," she said, seeing my questioning glance.
I nodded and placed the vial to the child's lips. She drank it slowly, sucking for more. The doors opened and Hermione and Molly walked in. They spotted me and smiled, then they looked around the room and saw the dead and . . . Fred and Lupin.
Molly had tears flowing by the time she reached me. "What's its name?"
"This little girl has one hell of a timing," I said emotionlessly to Molly and 'Mione. "Meet Sahara Bellatrix Weasley-Black. Sahara, meet your grandmother and Auntie - well soon to be auntie."
She blushed and smiled at the baby. "She's adorable."
"I know, and Fred will never-"
Molly hugged me, her tears falling. "I'm so sorry. I heard what happened from George."
"He's never going to see her!" I cried into her shoulder.
"I'm sure he already has!" she whisperd to me. "I'm sure he was here for the whole thing. I'm sure he's watching you right now."
