Chapter 10

You know….as long as I have more reviews then chapters then I'm fine. Ok so here's the new layout for things…

Dreams

Premonitions

Telepathic thoughts

(Draco's POV)

I don't know how I stopped myself from telling anyone, especially at Christmas. Fleur's gift had to be the best one. She gave it to Leah in the morning when it was just Leah and I, sitting and talking about different names for our daughter. Fleur knocked on the door, announced that it was her, then walked in. She handed over a box and, slowly, I opened it to see a few things of clothing for the baby plus a few bibs and towels. She told us that you could never have enough towels.

Leah, of course, jumped up and hugged her so tightly I wondered if the baby was getting squished or not. I said that…and wound up getting hit.

The rest of the day went by as Christmas was supposed to. Leah was a lot happier then on the last Christmas that I saw her. Her parents gave the two of a combined gift from both of them to both of us…but we weren't supposed to open it in front of everyone else. That got Harry and Ron curious and Leah suspicious. Sabrina said it had nothing to do with sex. I don't know what male in that whole room wasn't going red but all the girls were laughing which made Harry, Ron and I glare at our girlfriends.

Oh yeah….laugh it up. I said. Just wait…I'll get you back for that.

Go ahead and try. Leah said, smirking at me.

I never did get her back…because I forgot. As the celebrations winded down, everyone sat in a rather cozy room. Leah was lying down on the floor and I was sitting behind her, leaning back on my hands. Her hands were resting on her stomach. I missed most of the conversations going on that whole time. The only thing I really paid attention to was how much Leah was glowing (helped slightly by the light of the fire place but still…). I think Sabrina must have known something was up but she didn't say anything.

So really, for the next couple of weeks, things were actually pretty nice. Only once, when we were out too long and I forgot about the little timer thing, did things get kinda bad. We were just walking around and suddenly Leah had doubled over. It took me a few seconds to realize that Wormtail was getting hurt. I had almost forgotten about him. Then I remembered that I had forgotten about the whole timer thing. I wound up squeezing Leah's arm too tightly because then she straightened with a yelp and smacked me. She was yelling at me for hurting her for about thirty seconds before I pointed out that as soon that happened, she stopped feeling anything from Peter. Obviously she didn't see it my way. We returned to headquarters after that.

Finally, once it was a month and a half after we learned about her being pregnant, Leah agreed to go see a doctor. Especially since she noticed that her stomach was getting bigger (which she now blames me for).

So here we are, sitting in a room at St. Mango's and waiting for the damned doctor to come back with results.

"Will you settle down?" I asked. Leah had been slightly bouncy since the doctor left and her legs were swinging. All in all she was acting like a little kid. It was cute, but now the constant bang from her feet hitting the table was getting to me.

"Sorry." Leah said, stopping her feet mid swing.

"I know you're happy but you're reminding me of a little kid." I said. Leah turned to me and stuck her tongue out. "Ok now you're reminding me of one even more."

"That's the point." Leah said. I just smirked and stood in front of her with my hands on the table, trapping her. "Don't do anything too bad Mr. Malfoy. The doctor could back any minute."

"Screw the doctor." I said.

"EW!" Leah said.

"Not in that way!" I said. I groaned and let my head fall onto her shoulder. "Bloody hell. You happy now? Gonna give me nightmares."

"Awww…" Leah said. She grabbed my head, turned it up, then kissed me. I kissed her back. "All better?"

"What was wrong again?" I asked. At that moment the doctor decided to make his appearance. I turned so that I was next to Leah instead of in front.

"So Bailey…how far along am I?" Leah asked. I looked at her then remembered that she probably more then likely knew half the staff here because of her grandmother.

"About four months." Bailey said. "Anyone else know?"

"Nope." Leah said, shaking her head. "Just me, daddy here and Bill's wife, Fleur."

"But I take it you're going to tell them soon." Bailey said.

"Well duh." Leah said. "Four months along…look at me…already starting to get big." I looked at my watch. We had ten minutes to get back before the beeper went off (remembered it this time).

"Leah." I said. "Got ten minutes."

"Oh." Leah said. "Ok. Thanks Bailey." She slid off the table, hugged the doctor, then grabbed my hand and we left. Once outside, we apparated back to the headquarters but Leah stopped me from going in.

(Leah's POV)

"Gotta think of a way to tell everyone." I said.

"Well I can think of a way to let your parents know." Draco said. "Just give them happy grandma and grandpa cards or something." I laughed. We walked inside as Draco's watch started beeping. He turned it off once we got in there and the kitchen door opened to reveal Fleur coming out with baby Anna in her arms.

"Hey!" I said, smiling.

"Where'd you go?" Fleur asked.

"Four months." I said. Fleur looked confused for a second before smiling and hugging me. Anna put her arm around me as well but I think she was just imitating her mother.

"That explains this." Fleur said, sweeping her hand over my stomach. I laughed. Draco wandered off somewhere as me and Fleur talked about different things.

"What are you two laughing about?" Mom asked, coming down the stairs.

"Nothing." Fleur said. I just shook my head.

"Ok…I'm not blind. What is going on with you?" Mom asked, looking at me. "You've been…happy…the last few months."

"I have my reasons." I said.

Leah…come up to our room. Draco said

Why? I asked.

There's something you should see. Draco said.

Ok. I'll be there in a few. I said. I gave mom and Fleur each a hug before going up the stairs and heading to mine and Draco's room. I could hear talking. Draco's voice and…George's voice as well. Now what would they be talking about? I pushed open the door and walked in.

(Third Person POV)

George and Draco looked up as Leah walked into the room. She slowly closed the door behind her and sat on the bed next to Draco.

"What's up?" Leah asked, slowly.

"When were you going to tell everyone?" George asked. Leah looked at Draco.

"Don't look at me. He saw the outfits Fleur gave us." Draco said.

"Oh…" Leah said.

"So is that why you're been so happy lately?" George asked, smiling. Leah's face broke into a huge smile and she nodded. "So how far?"

"Four months." Leah said.

"Well…congratulations." George said. Leah laughed. "You gonna wait until everyone finds out on their own?"

"I dunno." Leah said. "What holiday is next?"

"Easter." George said.

"Oh." Leah said. "Yeah I'll be bigger by then."

"Why not just take everyone out for dinner…or…get stuff brought in?" Draco said. "And have like…place cards."

"That…is actually a good idea." Leah said. "Give everyone labels." Draco laughed. "What?"

"I was just thinking." Draco said. "Ginny and Hermione will be the closest things to aunts that our baby is gonna get."

"Pretty much." George said. "And Ron and Harry would be closest things to uncles that it's getting."

"Uncle Harry and Aunt Ginny." Leah said.

"Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermy." George said. All three of them laughed. Leah leaned against Draco and he wrapped his arm around her shoulders, kissing her head. "You two ready for this?"

"I think so." Leah said. "So…how are we doing this?"

"We'll need Fleur's help." Draco said. George and Leah looked at him.

The next night George and Draco managed to keep everyone out of the kitchen while Leah and Fleur made a big dinner and set everything up. It took the four of them a while but in the end they decided to give Sabrina, Sirius, Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny labels. After all, apart from right now, they would be the only ones attending that dinner.

Once everything was done, George had to go to work and Fleur had to go meet up with Bill. Everything was set out already and the labels were under the plates, sticking out slightly.

The only ones I'm kinda worried about are Ron and Harry. Leah said. I mean…what if they get mad?

Of course they'll get mad. Draco said.

Gee…that's helpful. Leah said. She glared at Draco.

I'm just saying that they'll only get mad because they'll be worried. Draco said. You know…having a kid at this time isn't always the smartest move. Don't worry baby, ok?

Ok. Leah said.

"So what's up?" Sabrina asked. "I mean…big fancy dinner. There's gotta be something."

"Maybe." Leah said.

"Hey Sirius, what's that sticking out from under your plate?" Harry asked.

"Hmm?" Sirius said. He moved his plate. "It's a card."

"What's it say?" Ron asked. Sirius opened the card. Leah looked down at her plate and Draco took hold of her hand where it sat in her lap.

"Leah…" Sirius said, slowly turning to look at his daughter. Everyone else looked under their plates.

"Uncle?" Harry said.

"I got aunt." Ginny said.

"Me too." Hermione said.

"I got the same as Harry." Ron said.

"I got grandma." Sabrina said. "And I'm guessing Sirius got grandpa." There was a silence and then Hermione and Ginny both squealed, just like Draco predicted, and ran around the table to hug Leah. She had the biggest smile on her face. "Ok now this sucks."

"What? Why?" Sirius asked.

"Because we never knew." Sabrina said. "Last time we did…but we had to wait until this happens."

"Four months." Leah said. "Bailey told me yesterday."

"So that's why you guys went out." Sirius said.

"Yeah." Draco said. He looked at Harry and Ron. "Are you guys trying to think of a good curse or jinx to do on me?"

"No." Harry said.

"Just getting over shock." Ron said.

"So you're not mad?" Leah asked.

"Actually…" Ron said, looking at Harry.

"No." Harry said. "This made you overly happy for the last while. And after the last time…" Leah smiled, got up, went around the table and hugged her friends. They stood up to make things easier.

"Promise me one thing though." Leah said. "All of you."

"What that's?" Hermione asked.

"No talking to the belly." Leah said. Everyone laughed and resumed their seats to finish eating.

By the middle of the afternoon the next day, everyone knew. Molly, of course, made a fuss. Dumbledore and McGonagall, being the only ones who actually knew the first time, had a few concerns but over all they were happy for their former students. Somehow, whether by McGonagall or Dumbledore, most of the school seemed to find out as well because the next day there were notes and letters from students that Leah and Draco knew from their short teaching period.

"Does the whole wizarding world have to know?" Draco said as Leah flipped through the cards.

"I guess so. There are even cards from people from the ministry." She said. "Oh wow…even Percy sent me one." Draco laughed. "Oh…he wants us to come down there."

"Us?" Draco said.

"Yeah well…it says right here." Leah said. "Check it out. He says that he would appreciate it if I came down and brought you along. He's the only Weasley that I cannot figure out. OH!" Her eyes suddenly brightened. "We should bring mom along with us!"

"Why?" Draco asked.

"Because she was the only one, and I mean only one, that could get him to lighten up." Leah said. "Of course, it might give him a heart attack when he sees her but that's just a plus."

"When does he want us down?" Draco asked, looking at the card.

"Umm….in three hours." Leah said, looking at the clock. "Check it out…the date he says is today and at six."

"Ok well…let's go tell your mom then." Draco said. They got up and went to find Sabrina who was in the sitting room, reading the prophet with a big smile on her face. "What's up?"

"Read this." Sabrina said, handing over the paper.

"Dark Lord rallying more supporters, yadda, yadda, blah, blah, something about my dad, blah, blah, blah…" Draco said. "Here we go…even in these dark times there is always a source of light. Leah Black, popular singer Sierra and daughter of the infamous Sirius Black, is just been reported to be expecting a child."

"Explains all the letters from people I don't even know." Leah said. "Percy's sent one."

"Oh." Sabrina said.

"Yeah…he wants me and Draco to come down in three hours." Leah said. "So we thought we'd go and bring you along just to see if Perce will have a heart attack or not."

"Sounds like fun." Sabrina said.

So they went. Percy didn't have a heart attack but he actually did faint.

"That's a first." Leah said, looking at the unconscious Percy. He hadn't changed from when she last saw him which was over two years ago. He hadn't grown much taller, he hadn't stopped wearing his horn rimmed glasses, and he hadn't changed his hair. Sabrina kneeled down by his head and lightly slapped his face. Percy groaned and opened his eyes.

"Alright…what's going on?" he asked, getting up. Sabrina stood up as well.

"It actually is my mom Percy." Leah said.

"No, it can't be." Percy said. "She died."

"Yeah…so did Sirius, James and Lily." Sabrina said. "But we're all here. Do NOT ask why because I have no bloody clue." Percy was still pale. "I swear if you faint again I'll slap you harder."

"What did you wanna see us for?" Draco asked, slowly and protectively putting his arm around Leah's waist.

"Just to…personally…say congratulations." Percy said. "And I also wanted to know if everyone was telling the truth about you two."

"You want convincing?" Leah asked.

"Oh boy…now you've done it." Sabrina said.

"This proof enough?" Leah asked, lifting her shirt enough to show the soft roundness of her stomach. "Four months along, Perce. And baby likes giving mommy mourning sickness." She said the last part to her stomach.

"Oh sure…we're not allowed to talk to the stomach but she is." Sabrina said.

"It's my stomach." Leah said.

"Weasley you lucky bastard." Draco said, quietly. Leah looked at him.

"I heard that. Both ways." She said.

"You're in trouble now." Sabrina said.

Oh come on I'm sorry. Draco said. Leah ignored him.

"Draco you gotta learn to keep your mouth and mind shut." Sabrina said.

"What?" Percy asked.

"Oh…they can talk telepathically but haven't really controlled it yet." Sabrina said. Leah rolled her eyes. As one, Sabrina and Draco's watches started beeping.

"Time to go." Draco said.

"Good thing too." Leah said. She apparated. The last thing Percy heard from Draco and Sabrina was them wondering if apparating would do anything harmful to the baby.

I figured I'd end this chapter here. I need an idea to happen between now and baby being born. Also any name ideas that any of you might have.
