Chapter 2 shopping

How far along are you? Asked Rose one day about a month later or was it two months I had no clue time just seemed to float by with out a care in the world. As I was sitting painting my nails

7 months I think maybe more I'm not so sure I said going back to painting my nails which I have been doing non stop for about an hour.

Yay that means we need to get some baby stuff like cots, prams nappy's bottles dummy's baby books a changing table a baby wand a toy broom clothes heaps of Toys. You also need stuff you can't keep wearing my baggy t shirts anymore Mya that means shopping!

Whoa slow down there Rose your blow up I said watching my friend buzz up and down way to fast to be humanly possible.

Come on lets go Mya she said impatiently.

Hold on wait I have to get up its not that easy any more now I'm huge.

Your not huge you're biggish but not huge she said making me burst out laughing. Come on we have to go she said pushing me over to the fire place.

Ok where are we going to go I said finally stopping laughing wiping away a few stray tears? Damm these hormones I thought to myself.

Baby land it's this place in Salem that's out magical capital for America it has everything for magical baby's there she said grabbing some floo powder. You go first Mya so you don't get lost.

Sure you just don't want me to fall over I grumbled.

Well there is that to she laughed as I disappeared in the emerald flames. When I stepped out of the fire place I looked up in awe it looked just like diagon ally. I was hit with a pang of homesickness. Just then Rose burst from the flames making me come back to reality.

Come on Hermione this way she whined sounding like a baby her self.

I'm coming rosy I teased, I always called her rosy when she acts like a child which is pretty much all the time I silently laughed at the cross look on her face.

When we entered the small looking shop I was gob smacked Rose was right it had everything.

We spent 4 hours straight shopping then we had lunch then we spent another 3 hours shopping. We bought a 4 poster crib which had a sleep spell on it so when you wanted your baby to sleep it would till you wanted it to wake up and it was big enough for three babies. It was ebony with silver drapes with matching blankets and pillows. It also came with a matching change table which was charmed to change the baby's nappy for you. Then we bought a mountain of baby books and baby spells. Then we got high chair made out of silver and white gold. Then we bought mountains and mountains of baby clothes all black blood red silver violets greens light blues and purple, with booties that match each outfit. We bought a baby bath made out of onyx and mother of pearl with a baby hair brush made out of onyx with mother of pearl and diamonds and baby wash that never fan out that made my baby's skin feel like satin. A bought a plush baby rug that was light lavender and silver. Then we went and got heaps of maternity clothes that actually looked good on me. Then we went to the toys that's when Rose went nuts she grabbed every teddy bear on the shelves then she went to grab many other expensive baby play items. The most expensive items I bought where 5 baby combs made out of different really rare and expensive stones or metals or ivory all in crusted with millions of dollars worth of diamonds and other stones. They were truly the most beautiful things I had seen in a very long time they were also goblin made

Something caught my eye it was a baby mobile it was black silk with different things from the sea hanging from it with a song that sounded so familiar. I no where i have heard that tune before percy used to hum it to me as i fell asleep in his loving and protective arms after long nights of love making our sweaty bodies sticking together but neither of us cared. I would buy this mobile even if it ment selling my sole to my very own daddy my baby would have something from its father even if it was only a lullaby. Look what I found said Rose as she rushed up to me holding a white gold and diamond baby wand. Oh that is beautiful you don't need to go that far. I can not accept it.

Yes I do and yes you can and you will, she laughed and rushed off.

After that we bought a mountain of bottles that we made out of diamond. Then we went home and set everything up.

Thank you so much Rose how can I ever thank you for everything.

You can thank me bye letting me be the baby's life she said as tears pricked my eyes.

What are you going to do say Rose who was holding me while cried? Suddenly I clutched my stomach as a trickle of water travelled down my leg.

Oh my god oh my god ohmygodOHMYGOD OH MY FUCKING GOD! I screamed.

What happened did the baby kick she squealed. Her hands going at lightening speed to my stomach to feel if my baby was kicking.

No my water broke I screamed in pain.

Now it was her turn to panic ok baby bag baby bag where is the baby bag she said rushing around I've got it I said calmly.

Ok lets floo to Salem maternity ward then she said pushing me towards the fire place. As I screamed in absolute agony.

No I want to go to St Mongose I said stubbornly

What happens if you see them she said worrying like the good friend she was but at the moment it just felt annoying?

I don't care Rose I want my baby born in London I don't care if they are there they wouldn't be anyway school is going back in 2 weeks so why would they be at the hospital. I screamed clutching my belly it felt like my insides were being torn apart with blunt razors.

Was that a contraction oh well what am I going to do with you. Ok how am I supposed to get us to London we can't floo because it could be harmful to the baby. That means we are going to have to apparate this won't cause any harm but it will be extremely painful Rose warned hoisting her leather Gucci baby bag. Which when she bought had caused me hours upon hours of comical entertainment. But right now I couldn't care less I needed to get to London and I needed to get there NOW.

Just do it I screamed as I doubled over as another particularly nasty contraction hit me?

With one last panic stricken look in my direction she grabbed my hand in a death grip and apparated to the London hospital of magic. As soon as we landed in the lobby Rose transfigured me a wheelchair and I gratefully sat in it. As soon as my butt touched the seat Rose raced off towards the front desk.

Can I help you said a bored looking witch who was flipping through a witch weekly magazine. She didn't even look up from it when Rose said or more appropriately screamed. What do you think can you see my best friend is having a baby? As if on cue another contraction ripped through my body thus making me scream in utter agony. She handed over a clipboard and said you will have to fill this out standard procedure she droned still flipping the pages of the stupid magazine. Do you think I have time to fill out a stupid fucking form get me a healer NOW! I screamed finally getting the receptionist attention. Then all of a sudden healers came out of nowhere transfiguring the wheelchair to a gurney with wheels and started wheeling me away with Rose hot on their heels there was no way she was missing this.

The healers started firing questions at me all at once so I just stayed quite it took all my energy to stop from screaming I didn't trust myself to open my mouth so I kept it shut tight. Finally the healers gave up shooting questions and just started casting charms to find out the answerers instead.

One nice looking healer looked up at me with a big grin on her face. Congratulations you're having twins a boy and a girl she said happily before returning to her spells.

What I screamed as we finally arrived in the delivery room.

And you know the rest of the story
