Chapter 1:A Recap and Possible Pregnancy?!?
Recap
"Jess, I've got to tell you something."
"Okay, what is it?" Her smile was loving and caring and her eyes were sparkling with happiness.
"I-I have to leave you and Ron, Mione, Ginny, everyone and go help the Order. Voldemort sent a suspicious letter to Dumbledore about the war and I can't bring any of you with me. I don't want to break off our engagement so will you wait for me?"
She looked so sad it tore Harry's heart apart to see her like that. A single tear slid down her cheek. He wiped away then she nodded.
"I'll wait for you love." she whispered.
Harry watched as she stood up and began getting dressed again.
"What are you doing?" he asked.
"I'm leaving."
"What?!?" he exclaimed.
"Harry, I love you with all my heart and I'll miss you terribly and I know this isn't your fault, but I can't NOT be mad and upset about this. I need to think."-She opened the door-"Goodbye Harry."
Tears slid down Harry's face as he stared at the door. He picked up the pillow she slept on and inhaled her scent, more tears falling. He looked at the picture on his nightstand of the two of them. Harry's photographic self picked Jessica's photographic self up and spun her around. She laughed.
"Goodbye Jessica..."
'I can't believe this.'
Damnit, Damnit, Damnit.
About a Month Later,July 31st
Jessica looked at the window at the twinkling night sky. It had been about a month since Harry left and she'd had no word of what was going on or even if he was still alive. She was still filled with sadness, grief, and regret for letting him leave her but she knew she must carry on while he fought gallantly.
'Hopefully' she added as an after thought.
She felt her stomach lurch. She'd been getting sick at all times during the day, especially in the mornings, for the past few weeks. She was trying right now not to get sick while she was reminiscing about her love. She's remembered that today was his birthday and celebrated it in her own way. She looked away from the dark yet beautiful sky and her eyes landed straight on a picture. Harry had the same picture. They'd both been outside and leaves were falling around because it was late autumn when this had been taken. She watched as a leak landed in her photographic's self's hair and Harry picked it out then picked her up, spinning her around making her photographic self laugh and kiss him.
Jess really missed days like that. She wished she could just go back to the day Harry had proposed to her and the next morning, tell him he couldn't leave her or else he was taking her with him. She hated just sitting around with absolutely no idea what was going on. Sure she got the Daily Prophet but it was very vague on the details and what was happening. Just then she heard Hermione's voice.
'She must be talking to Ginny about something.' Jessica thought.
After they had graduated, Jessica, Hermione, and Ginny had all agreed to live together and now they all lived in a small flat right in London. Ginny was training to be a Healer and Hermione was working in the Department of Mysteries. Hermione had always been brilliant and Ginny got advanced into the same year as them(seventh year) because her grades were outstanding. Jessica was McGonagall's apprentice, a student teacher if you wanted to be more specific. She had always loved Transfiguration and most of the time, the Transfiguration professors became Heads of the school. Her dear grandfather had been one. She was happy about the whole thing. Hermione was also engaged to Ron and Ginny was engaged to her dear brother, Oliver. Jessica's engagement ring was still on her finger for a reason. Still, she wished she could see her fiancee every day like Hermione and Ginny.
"Jessica!" She heard Hermione calling her.
She walked downstairs, her stomach lurching again.
"Yes Mione?" she spoke up, looking from her brunette friend to the fiery redhead that was sitting down in front of Hermione.
"Are you alright? I've been noticing that you've been sick a lot lately." she asked raising an eyebrow at the curly haired brunette.
"Y-Yeah, I'm fine." Jessica replied raising her hand to her mouth.
Then she rushed off.
Hermione and Ginny looked from the bathroom door to each other and Hermione summoned a certain book. She flipped through the pages, finally reaching a certain page, her brown eyes scanning quickly over the words.
"Gin, I think Jess might be pregnant." Hermione said slowly.
"Oh shit." Was all Ginny said.
"Tell me about it." Hermione muttered.
Then Jessica came out and slumped in a chair next to Ginny's.
"What's wrong with me Gin?" she asked turning to her other best friend.
"Well Hermione thinks that you might be pregnant and I'm inclined to agree with her. You're displaying the symptoms." Ginny replied.
"Oh shit." Jessica said, bending over, her right elbow propped up on her knee and her forehead resting on the palm of her hand.
"That's what I said." Ginny spoke up.
"I'll ask one of the Healers if they can take a look at you." she added quickly.
"Thanks Gin." Jessica replied hugging her friend.
"What are friends for?"
"Mione, Gin, I've made a quick decision." Jessica said looking at them.
"What is it?" they both chorused.
"Well you two are the best friends a girl could ask for and since you both are my best mates, I want both of you to be godmothers to my child." she told them smiling.
They both hugged her fiercely.
"I accept!" Hermione squealed.
"Me too!" Ginny piped up.
She hugged them back. Then Hermione stood back up and a grin spread over her face.
"Something amusing Mione?" Jessica asked her.
"It's just that Gin and I have to be delicate with you now that you might be pregnant and it's just hard to picture, you, the rebel girl, the girl who loved to fight against Dark creatures and jam on your electric guitar, must now be overly cautious because of a precious life that might be inside of you." she replied, her grin growing. Ginny laughed.
"That's right Mione! Miss Rebel here has to back down at least for a while."
"Well, this rebel says that one day I shall keep on fighting but for now I will take the spineless course and for once, act normal." Jessica said grinning.
This made all of them laugh.
Later that night, Jessica walked up to her room exhausted from her long talk with Hermione and Ginny and their laughter, poking fun at each other. She changed and slid into bed, turning towards the picture of her and Harry again.
"Sweet dreams Harry my love, and Happy Birthday." she whispered before drifting off to sleep.
A Week Later
Jessica walked out of the Healer's office, thinking about the names of her children. That right, CHILDREN. She was having fraternal twins, just like she and her brother had been. One was a boy, the other a girl. 'Damn fate, Damn it. Fate had to go and be cruel, taking Harry away from me. Now he's away from home for I dunno how long and he has no clue I'm pregnant and that I'm having his children.'
Jessica thought bitterly approaching her two best friends.
"Sooo?" both of them chorused.
"I'm having fraternal twins, just like me and Oliver were, a boy and girl." she replied.
"What are you going to name them?" Ginny asked.
"Jess, I hate to bring this up and interrupt Ginny's question but, you do know who the father is, right?" Hermione asked her.
"Of course." she replied looking at her fiend skeptically.
"Well?" Hermione said, hands on her hips.
Jessica sighed. "Okay, I'll tell you but you cannot tell who it is."
"Why?" they both asked her at the same time.
"Because I have my own reasons for keeping it a secret." she told them.
"Okay." they both replied.
"It's Harry." she told them.
They both grinned and Ginny exclaimed, "I knew it!"
Jessica gave her a stern look and Ginny made a motion like zipping her mouth up.
"Okay, back to my original question, what are you going to name them?" Ginny spoke up again.
Jessica thought for a moment.
"I think I'll name the girl Melody Constance and the boy James Nicholas." she replied.
"Beautiful names." Hermione commented.
"Thanks Mione."
"I approve too."
"Thanks Gin."
"Have you told your grandfather or brother yet?" Hermione asked her as they were walking down one of the corridors.
"Well, no but I think I can already tell what their reactions will be. They'll both be slightly disappointed in me for letting this happen but all in all, they'll both love and support me anyways. I just wish my parents were alive to see their grandchildren." Jessica replied, lowering her head a bit.
Hermione smiled, putting an arm around her friend and Ginny rubbed her back.
"I'll bet they'd be proud of you Jess." Ginny reassured her.
She only smiled weakly in response.
The Next Day
"So you're having twins my dear?" Professor Dumbledore asked, gazing down at his granddaughter.
A hot blush rose up in Jessica's face. She now knew what her friends felt like sitting underneath her grandfather's gaze when they were in trouble. But he had not scolded her in any way....yet.
"Yes Grandpa" she replied.
"So I'm going to be a great grandfather?" he asked her smiling.
She smiled back and nodded.
"Well congratulations my dear. Although I am a bit disappointed that you're pregnant at such a young age, I accept this and support you wholeheartedly." he told her, hugging her.
"Thank you Grandpa. I knew you'd eventually reach the good points." she said grinning.
"I can't believe I'm gonna be an uncle." Oliver said from across the room, leaning against a bookshelf, grinning at his sister.
"Well aren't you happy? Get over here and give me a hug for conceiving and eventually having your niece and nephew." Jessica ordered.
Oliver walked over, still grinning, and hugged his sister tightly.
"I am happy sis and congrats."
"Thank you." she said hugging her brother back.
"What are their names going to be?" her brother asked.
"Melody Constance Dumbledore and James Nicholas Dumbledore." she replied.
"Well shouldn't they have their father's last name?" Oliver asked her.
She frowned. "Well, they would if I had any guarantee he was coming back."
Both her grandfather and brother looked confused.
"What do you mean, my dear?"
"Well promise not to freak out." she said crossing her arms.
"Okay." they both replied.
"Well Harry's the father and if I had any guarantee he was coming back I would make their last names Potter but I don't want to get their hopes up as they grow, or mine either." she told them.
They were both silent.
"Exactly." she said at their silence.
Four Months Later, December 8th
Christmas was in the air. Jessica, Hermione, and Ginny had decorated their flat and it looked beautiful. Jessica was getting rounder by the day and trying not to be too crabby with everyone about it. The thing that amused her the most was that Hermione and Ginny were getting round too. Almost three weeks after she'd been told she was pregnant, Hermione and Ginny also found out that they were too. Jessica took that opportunity to tease them like they'd done to her. Jessica smiled as she remembered how kind everyone had been to her.
Being pregnant hadn't stopped any of them from doing their work though. Professor McGonagall had driven Jessica away from Hogwarts and told her to rest but she wouldn't do it. She was busy working on a potion that would cure Lycanthropy. She really wanted Remus to be cured before her children were born. She really felt sorry for him because he didn't have children of his own and she hoped that letting him look after her children once in a while and bringing them into his life would encourage him to meet someone have children of his own. Hermione was also just as busy. She'd been working on that veil and she was astounded at what she'd discovered. She discovered that that veil didn't kill people who touched it or fell into it. It was like a portal to a plane caught between the normal world and Heaven. She'd told Jessica and Ginny that Sirius could speak to anyone in Heaven freely but he was still alive. She was busy trying to find a way to bring him back. Ginny was just as busy as ever in her training to become a Healer. She'd been doing excellently and was predicted to become a full fledged Healer soon.
As Jessica was mixing the Wolfsbane Potion with a hybrid potion she'd concocted, she was remembering a dream she'd had the night before. A dream that seemed incredibly real.
THE DREAM
She'd been sitting at a window, staring at the full moon and stars that twinkled above, a hand resting on her round stomach. She really wanted to know what her children would look like whether they'd resemble her more or Harry or whether they'd be a mix of both of them. A light breeze began to blow softly billowing her long curls which were hanging down, framing her face. It made the white curtains billow softly too. Then she heard a voice.
"Jessica" The voice said her name.
She turned her head and walking towards her was Harry. She'd been stunned and confused at who it was until he walked into the moonlight. She recognized the messy black hair that was shining in the moonlight, the bright green eyes that were sparkling at her, the lips that were curved upwards into a soft smile.
"Harry" she breathed as he sat down beside her.
He didn't say anything. He just raised his right hand, caressing her cheek then just placing it there. She could feel the warmth from his hand on her face. She raised her hand and placed hers on top of his.
"So you're pregnant?" he asked her, his voice soft.
She nodded.
"What are we having?" he asked her, his voice as soft as velvet it seemed.
"Fraternal twins, just like my brother and I were." she replied.
"That's wonderful." he said
Then he leaned down and kissed her. She wanted to keep kissing him forever but she pulled back and looked at him. He really didn't looked any different, not that it mattered to her.
"Voldemort's gone?" she asked him.
He nodded. She smiled.
He looked down, placing his hand on her stomach. She felt both of her children kick.
"Did you feel that?" she asked him.
He nodded smiling.
"They must know that it's you." "Either that or they're just responding to the touch." she said grinning.
"If you didn't have this belly and the precious lives that it holds inside, you would be paying for that right now Miss Dumbledore." he said grinning wickedly.
"I don't know about that Mr. Potter." she retorted.
He just leaned it and kissed her again.
That's when she been woken up by the sun rays penetrating through the window and glaring into her eyes through her eyelids. She'd wondered and wondered as she'd been mixing potions and testing them whether or not that had been just a dream or a premonition or just her wishful imagination at work.
Little did she know that miles away, Harry Potter had had the exact same dream and was wondering the very same things about it.
