"You're pregnant." he said with disbelief in his voice.
`Oh God, he knew! My worst fear had come true. Now he'll tell everyone, I know he'll tell. He's going to ask questions! What do I do now? What do I say?' all this raced through my head as I stared, speechlessly at my feet. I had no idea what I was supposed tell him. It's not like I could've denied it...Moody's magical eye obviously saw right through me.
"I...I...I know Mad-Eye!" I confessed ,"I didn't want anyone to know, I mean, not yet any ways."
"Tonks..." he began, but I stopped him before he could say any thing else.
"Mad-Eye, I know, it was stupid to get myself pregnant, but you don't understand...," this was harder than I though it was going to be, "It's Sirius's baby..." I stopped there, letting my last words sink in, as I watched Mad-Eyes shocked expression.
"You...and...he...you two...? Why didn't you tell anyone?" he asked, the confusion and anger swelling in his voice.
"Look, I feel bad enough, and I'll let you and everyone else know the details soon enough. It's better that I just tell you all then, instead of telling it a million times. But promise me that you won't tell anybody."
"I don't know Tonks, this is important."
"Please Mad-Eye?" I looked up at him with tears in my eyes.
"All right, but I don't like this Tonks, not one bit." And with that being said, he walked passed me into his room, leaving me alone on the stairs.
Slowly, I made my way to my room, careful not to trip on the rugs as I so often did. I was so confused, and upset, and mad, and sad, and everything else under the sun that I wasn't able to get much sleep at all that night, no matter how tired I was.
The next morning, I was up early, and in the kitchen when Remus and Moody made there way through the door. I was thankful that Moody didn't look at me much. I didn't really want to deal with anything other than my tea at that moment.
"M-m-m-o-o-r-ning Tonks," Remus yawned as he made himself a cup of tea.
"Morning," I replied, trying to look happy. Moody didn't say anything, but helped himself to a piece of toast. "Where's Kreacher?"
"Still locked in my room I believe," Remus said, "I put him there while I was sleeping. Don't worry, he was still there when I got up. I'll go get him." I was shocked that he had left him alone without anyone to watch him, but luckily Remus came back with Kreacher still at hand.
"I sometimes wonder why he just doesn't leave. I'm sure there's some way he could that we haven't thought of," Remus said to us.
"I'm sure he has his reasons," grunted Moody, "don't ya you little....."
"Naughty words the Auror uses. The filthy, pathetic, no good...." Kreacher muttered.
"Not the only one to use nasty words are you Mad-Eye," I chuckled. As bad as it was to have Kreacher around, the fights he got into with Mad-Eye were quite funny.
"Well as soon as Dumbledore gets here, we'll finally put him in his place," he said, "I still think we should kill him." Just then, we heard a crack in the air, and through the kitchen door walked Diggle.
"Just got word from Dumbledore. He wants as many people as possible here at 6:00 tonight," he told us, "he also said something about `we have much to discuss and a secret will be reveal'."
"Thanks Diggle, we'll spread the word. Would you like some tea or toast or anything?" Remus offered.
"Oh, no thank you, I really must be going. See you tonight." and with another crack he was gone.
"I wonder what he ment by `a secret will be revealed'?" Remus wondered aloud. I on the other hand, knew exactly what the secret was......
Five Fifty that evening.......
We were all there, well most of us were. The Weasley's were not going to be there that night, try as they did. They had the children to watch, and Mrs. Weasley was off in Romania with Charlie for a few weeks. Mr. Weasley thought about bringing the children with if he went, but decided not to for one reason or another. Some one had agreed to take notes for them about what happened that night, though I really didn't want them too. Kreacher was also there, as he always was, bound and where we could see him.
While waiting for Dumbledore many of us were drinking from our glasses of wine, other's were discussing that day's events. I myself was listening to Kingsley as he told a few of us what had been going on at the Ministry that day. ( I had taken the day off...)
"Everything is going hay wire! With Fudge finally coming to his senses about You-Know-Who, everyone's worried that he won't be able to handle it. Even his closest employees!" he raved shaking his head in disbelief.
"Even Percy?" I asked.
"Ya wanna know something crazy?" he asked, "He is STILL raving that Dumbledore is an old fool, and that Fudge was just hallucinating! Fudge told him that if he didn't shut up and face the facts that he'd fire him right then and there! That's keeping him quiet for now, but it's still odd."
"Hhmmm..." I replied. I was getting more nervous by the minute, and every time someone mentioned `the secret' my stomach did a back flip into my throat. I knew I would have to do this at one point, but I was just too scared. What really worried me was how Dumbledore had found out. He had made it seem like he had knew all along. Had Sirius said something to him? But wait, he couldn't have, he was killed before I could tell him. That thought brought tears to my eyes, and I wiped them away quickly before anyone could notice. Kingsley continued for a few more minutes, but at the strike of 6, Dumbledore walked into the room and took a seat.
"Hello everyone!" he said to the Order. Many hello's and how are you's replied from the group of wizards. "I have called you all together of course to talk about the house-elf Kreacher, and other important information and details. So first I must ask you all what you think we should do with Kreacher." He placed his fingertips together and waited for an answer. He didn't have to wait long.....
"Torture him!" squeaked Diggle.
"Cut off his head and stick it on the wall!" shouted one wizard.
"Kill him straight out and throw him the fire," said Mad-Eye. Many others nodded in agreement.
"Albus, why hasn't Kreacher left?" interrupted Remus, "he has no one left to serve, and he can obviously apparate, so why is he still here?" Everyone fell silent to this question, and began whispering among themselves.
"That Remus, is because he does have one more person left to serve," Dumbledore answered.
"But who?" Kingsley asked.
"That is something I would as Tonks, Kingsley."
"What? Why?" Every single head then turned my way, waiting for me to tell them why.
"Tonks," Albus said to me ," I believe that now is the time that you told them your secret."
I looked at Dumbledore, staring at him, not really knowing why. `This is it,' I told myself, `it's either now or never.'
"I'm pregnant..." I said, trying to hold back the tears. That sent a shock wave out to every single face, except Mad-Eye's and Dumbledore's.
"Who's the father?" asked many of them, not yet picking up on the whole thing. At that, with tears running down my face, I looked straight into Remus's eye's, which were filled with shock and confusion, and immediately he understood.
"Sirius Black...." I whispered.
A/N: So....what did ya think? Well guess what? Now it's your turn to say what'll happen! Give me your ideas about what Tonk's should do next, about the baby, and Kreacher, or anything else and I'll pick the best ones and put them in the next chapters! PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!
