Chapter 22

And I remember, and I recall

And I see that nothing's changed at all

Tegan woke up to the sound of rumpling paper and looked over at Draco. She saw 4 owls standing on the desk where Draco was sitting.

" What are you doing?" Tegan asked as she sat up and Draco looked over at her.

" Sorry I woke you, but this owl wouldn't stop pecking at the window. Then when I let him in 3 others flew in also" Draco said as Tegan smiled. She walked over to Draco and sat down on his lap as he began reading the first letter.;

Dear Tegan and Draco,

Congratulations on the baby. Arthur and I are so happy for you two. If you ever need anything don't be afraid to ask. Also feel welcome to visit the burrow anytime you wish. We also want you too feel like family again and would like to welcome Draco into the family. Don't let silly disagreements of the past keep you two away.

Love,

The Weasleys

" Aw, Aunt Molly's is so nice" Tegan said as Draco shrugged.

" She seems like a nice lady" Draco said as Tegan smiled and she grabbed the next letter and began to read it aloud.

Draco and Tegan,

Congratulations on the baby! I can't believe I'm going to be a grandmother. I didn't know if you two wanted me to tell your father Draco, so I'll keep it quiet until I get an answer back. Also Draco, congratulations on the defense against the dark arts job. I'm so proud of you. I'm still trying to work things out with your father but you know how stubborn he can be. If you two need anything at all I'll be here. Keep in touch.

Love,

Narcissa

" Dad's always being stubborn" Draco said as Tegan hugged him.

" Don't worry about it. Everything will be fine" Tegan said as she handed Draco the next letter and he began to read it aloud.

Mr. Malfoy,

Congratulations on receiving the dark arts job. I know that the job will be in good hands once I leave Hogwarts at the end of the school year. I hope your future is filled of happiness and success.

Sincerely,

Professor Lupin

" That was nice of him" Tegan said as Draco nodded.

" Yeah it was" Draco agreed as Tegan took the last letter and began to read it aloud.



Mr. Malfoy,

I am happy to welcome you to the staff for the new semester. For the summer you and Mrs. Weasley will be able to stay here at Hogwarts if you don't find a place of your own in the meantime. If you do, I will be happy to loan you the money you will need. Take care.

Dumbledore

" I'm so proud of you" Tegan said as Draco kissed her.

" Thank you" Draco said as Tegan smiled. They quickly wrote back thank you replies and send the owls back on there way. Draco closed the window and was just about too turn around when there was some more pecking at the window. Draco groaned as he opened the window and a black and brown spotted owl flew in. Tegan recognized the owl and grabbed the letter from it. The owl put her beak in the air and turned it's back on Tegan.

" Who's it from?" Draco asked as he came up behind her.

" Its from my mom" Tegan said as she unfolded the note quickly and began to read it aloud.

Dear Tegan,

How are you doing my precious daughter? I hope you are fine. I just wanted to tell you that it isn't a very nice feeling when you need to find out from strangers that you're little girl is getting married and also about my grandchild. How do you think that felt Tegan? I was so hurt. Don't you love me anymore? Well I just want you and your fiancé to know that you two are welcome home anytime. Hope to see you both soon.

Love,

Mother

P.S. Please don't make me mad, you know how I get when I get mad.



Tegan ripped up the letter angerely and Draco put a hand on her shoulder.

" Tegan calm down" Draco said as Tegan took a deep breath. As soon as she exhaled tears were falling down her cheeks. Tegan turned around and Draco hugged her.

" I don't want our baby being hurt by her. She's not going to hurt our baby that witch! I hate her!" Tegan yelled as Draco ran his hands down Tegan's back.

" No one will hurt our baby Tegan I promise. If anyone ever tried to hurt you or the baby they'd have to go through me first" Draco said as Tegan looked up at him.

" I love you Draco" Tegan said as she kissed him.

" I love you too" Draco said as he held Tegan for a little while longer. But Draco wouldn't be able to keep his promise.
