Chapter 2- Morning Sickness and Ice Cream

AN: anything italicized is someone's thoughts.

After Jade had gone home she had laid down waiting for Harry to come home from work. He was one of the top aurors the ministry had and he still worked late so he could find all the death eaters that had escaped after the final battle. She was a healer at St. Mungo's but they had given her the day off though she suspected it was on Hermione's orders. Hermione had decided at the end that she wanted to be a healer so she and Jade went to healer school together. Jade got up and walked to the kitchen to get something to eat. She opened the fridge door and sighed. Closing it she opened the freezer and pulled out a small pint of cookie dough ice cream. Taking a spoon out of the dishwasher she walked into the living room and took a seat on the chair in front of her desk. She picked up the binder full of her wedding plans and looked through it while eating her ice cream. We planned on an October wedding but the baby is due in September. Maybe we should move the wedding up even though we wanted a fall wedding but since only friends are going to be there we should keep it how we want it. I'll ask Harry what he thinks. Okay guest list, Hermione and Ron, Luna and Neville, and my cousin Sahara Zabini. Harry probably won't be happy but she's a nice person. Different from the rest of the family even though he doesn't know that Blaise is my cousin. My head hurts from all this thinking but this needs to be done. Anyone else, the entire Weasley family is invited of course as well as Sirius and Lupin, Tonks, anyone else I'm missing?

A hand on her shoulder interrupted her thoughts. She whirled around and saw Harry standing there with a grin on his face. "Harry you scared me." She said.

"Well you were in deep thought. Care to share?"

"No just wedding plans that we need to talk about. What do you think about the guest list?" she said handing it over to him.

She watched as he took it and read it over. "Yeah it looks good but who the hell is Sahara Zabini?"

"I never told you this but Blaise is my cousin. This is his older sister."

"No. I don't want her to come."

"Just listen. She's nothing like her brother. Please?"

"No. I won't have her there."

Jade glared at him and took her bowl to the kitchen. "Fine. Have fun sleeping alone tonight."

"Wait why?"

"See you later Harry." She said before apparating with a small pop.

She appeared at a small house and she knocked on the door not caring how late it was. A sleepy red haired boy answered the door. "Jade what are you doing here so late?"

"Sorry but I didn't know where else to go. I didn't want to argue with Harry that much so I just came here."
"No that's okay. Come in and take a seat." He said standing aside and letting her inside the house. She took a seat wearily on his bed while he handed her a glass of water. "Thank you. I'm so sorry about this."

"No problem. I told you anytime you needed to get away you could come."

"I would have gone and stayed with Fred and George but that would have been his first place to look."

"What is he mad about?"
"I wanted to invite my cousin Sahara to the wedding."
"What's the problem with that?"
"She's Blaise Zabini's older sister."

"You're related to the Zabini's? I never knew that. Give him time and he'll come around. Are you going to spend the night then?"

"Yes if you don't mind."
"Not at all. You take the bed and I'll sleep on the floor."

"But…"

"No buts. If mum found out I let you sleep on the floor with you being pregnant she would let me have it."

Jade smiled and laid down on the bed. Tiredly she closed her eyes and before she fell asleep she said, "Thanks. Good night Charlie." She hadn't been asleep for very long before she jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom. Not bothering to shut the door she rushed to the toilet and threw up in it. Everything came up and her face was sweaty. Charlie had heard her and came in with a glass of water. He handed it to her and told her to drink it slowly that it would help. He then helped her up and led her back to the bed. She didn't sleep well that night.

AN: So what did you all think of that chapter? Charlie was the last person anyone would expect her to go so that's where she went. Thanks to anyone who reviewed. Let me know what you think by reviewing. Tanis
