Chapter 11
"You are lover; borrow Cupid's wings, and soar with them above a common bound."
The party was in a big tent outside on the grounds of Hogwarts. Sirius and Anne had sneaked away from the visitors, they were taking a small walk outside.
"God, this is a beautiful day…" sighed Anne.
"Only a bit cold outside, isn't it?" replied Sirius.
"Yes… yes it is," she answered, shivering. "Let's go back to the tent."
The grounds were full of bright white snow, it had been snowing the previous week.
"Stop! Stop!" they heard a voice say, and they turned around to see who called.
"Harry! What are you doing outside?" asked Sirius.
"Looking for the two of you. Can I make a picture of you together with Hogwarts as background?" asked Harry.
"Sure," said Anne, turning her back to the castle and standing very close to Sirius, when Harry made a picture of them.
"Thanks!"
"Wait for us, we're going back inside too!" yelled Sirius.
That night, at 5AM, Sirius and Anne were sitting in the living room, hanging in each other's arms. Alex was at Hogwarts, Madam Pomfrey took care of him.
Harry had chosen to stay at Hogwarts also, he didn't tell a reason…
"This was the best day of my life…" sighed Sirius.
"Better than when you were officially a free man or the day you met me again after 12 years Azkaban?" asked Anne.
"Yes. You might not believe me, but it is true," he replied.
They fell asleep on the sofa, and woke up next afternoon at 3PM. Sirius looked at the ring on his finger.
"I still can't believe it," he muttered.
"Believe what?" replied Anne, who was awake too.
"That we're married," answered Sirius, pulling his wife closer to him. "Good morning, love."
"Good afternoon, you mean! Had a good night?"
"Very good," answered Sirius.
"Sirius, I've got to tell you something," said Anne, suddenly very serious.
"You're pregnant again?" replied he.
"No… but… do you remember the night after the Yule Ball?" she asked.
"Yes, of course!" he said, and the memory came back in his mind. They had left the Great Hall before the Ball ended, and went up to the boys' dormitory… after putting a Locking Charm and a Silencing Charm on Sirius' four-poster, they had a wonderful night together.
"And you remember I went away a few days later for my trip around the world, don't you?"
"Yes. Why are you asking me all this, dear?"
"Because the scar on my stomach isn't from some 'ordinary' surgery, as I always told you. It was to give birth to a child…"
"What??!" gasped Sirius.
"Sirius, we've got a daughter who is two years older than Harry."
A/N: did any of you expect this? I don't think so… be prepared for the unexpected when you red my fics, there are many other unexpected things going to happen, believe me! I already thought of a complete plot for this fic, a wicked plot!!!
