One day in February Ashleigh was helping clean some of the house. Sirius
protested that she should be resting for the baby. But Ashleigh couldn't
rest, after all she always had to be busy. So when Sirius left the room to
make the tea, Ashleigh climbed up on the latter and started to clean out
the flesh eating spiders with the magical poison. One of them caught her
off guard and to avoid being bitten she moved back. But she moved so far
back that she fell off the latter. Falling toward the ground, she screamed.
Her baby! It was all she could think about. Her baby. Just before she hit
the ground she landed up right. Sirius had just walked through the door. He
dropped the tray holding the tea and crumpets and ran to her side. She was
ok. Nothing had happened.
"What happened?" He asked her. She shrugged.
"I don't know. One second I was flying toward the floor and then I was standing up right." Ashleigh said. She couldn't understand it. What had made her not fall on her ass.
"Ash, there was a blue orb around you. Like some kind of protective shield." He said. Ashleigh thought about it. She hadn't conjured up a shield she would know if she had.
"I didn't do it." She said.
"Well then what happened?" He asked, and just then the baby kicked her from inside her stomach. Ashleigh looked down as she placed her hand gently on her stomach.
"Maybe it was the baby." Ashleigh said. He looked at her bulging stomach. Was it possible? Harry didn't do this with Lily.
"I don't know, but what ever it was, stay on the ground. I don't want you to hurt that baby. Ok?" He asked. Over the last 2 months he had learned not to piss Ashleigh off. She had hormones that went everywhere. One second she would be happy and the next she would be rampaging through the house.
"I'll do what I want Sirius." Ashleigh said cleaning up the broken glass on the floor.
"I'll get that. And I don't want you to do what you want at the cost of our child." Sirius said. Ashleigh got up and left the room. She went to her bedroom and laid down. She was sick and tired of Sirius worrying about her. Wasn't she the most powerful witch alive? She was part sorceress, part witch, very talented. Hell, she cant die unless she voluntarily gives her blood up to someone. A rule as a sorceress was that she can give her blood to one person and it will protect them to a certain extent. But if she gives it to two people she will die. She had already given some to Harry after the prophecy on his life was made. She couldn't give it to anyone else. She felt the baby kick again. She was anxious to get it out. It should be due in April or may. She couldn't remember. She was so tired. Her eyes started to close.

Ashleigh was sitting on the edge of her bathtub. The test was positive, positive. She was pregnant. This couldn't be happening. Not at all. Sirius would be furious! There was a sharp knock on the door.
"Come in." Ashleigh said hiding the test. Sirius barged in and looked in the mirror. His forehead had blood on it.
"Oh Sirius! What happened?" Ashleigh asked racing toward him. He touched his forehead and he winced. She took out her wand and fixed it. For some things she still had to use her wand.
"Just got attacked, that's all." He said.
"That's all. God, come here." Ashleigh said hugging him. She needed him there. For their baby. She kissed him.
"Whats wrong baby?" He asked when she got quiet and pulled away.
"Nothing, we need to talk." Asheligh said.
"What about?" He asked.
"Sirius, I know you didn't want this to happen, but. I. I." She couldn't do it. She couldn't bare to hear his words after she told him.
"I ate the last of the cheese." Ashleigh said. Sirius looked at her with an odd expression.
"Was that it?" He asked. Ashleigh nodded.
"Oh, no problem, are you sure that was it?" He asked. Ashleigh nodded.

"Ashleigh, wake up. Are you ok?" Sirius asked. She was tangled in the bed sheets. She untangled herself and looked around. She was back in Grimwald place again. Ashleigh nodded. She had a nightmare. It was about her first child. Voldermort had killed it when it was still developing inside her. She didn't know until after his downfall and after Sirius was put in jail, the time when she needed him most. Tears were threatening to fall.
"What happened?" He asked her. She shrugged.
"I don't know. One second I was flying toward the floor and then I was standing up right." Ashleigh said. She couldn't understand it. What had made her not fall on her ass.
