Chapter Seven – A New Baby

A few weeks after the incident or the slapping incident as it was now known to Jazzy, Jess and Maddy, Peyton received a letter from Fletch. She read the letter through and once she had found out what the newest news from the Wizarding world was she ran out into the front room.

"Harmony'shavingababy!" she screamed as she ran into the front room.

Maddy and Britty Boo looked at her with confusion etched all over their faces. Maddy pushed some of her hair out of her face and took a deep breath while Britty Boo focused her attention back to the television. Peyton looked at Maddy and sighed before repeating the news again.

"Harmony'shavingababy!"

"What?" Maddy asked, she then continued what she was saying, "Slow down! I can't understand you!"

Peyton sighed again then spoke, this time more slowly, "Harmony's having a baby!"

When Maddy heard this she laughed at Peyton.

"Peyton, where have you been? Harmony had a baby nearly two years ago. It was a girl, her name is Tori and she's two next week," Maddy told Peyton after she had stopped laughing.

Peyton rolled her eyes then said, "I know that. She's having another baby. It's due in the middle of July. Fletch write us a letter."

"That's great!" Maddy exclaimed.

Britty Boo looked at Maddy feeling rather confused and asked, "Who's Harmony?"

"Harmony's our cousin's wife. Have you thought anymore about the tutoring Peyt?" Maddy replied.

"Yeah, I'm going to have to swallow my pride and ask for it otherwise dad will kill me. So will Hermione and Ellie," Peyton told her sister glumly.

Britty Boo once again looked confused.

"Who's Hermiown and Ellie?" she asked.

Peyton laughed at Britty Boo's pronunciation of Hermione then said, "Her-my-oh-nee is our aunt. She's married to mum's brother Ron. She's also our cousins Fletch, Tasha, Caitlin and Chantelle's mum and Ellie is our older sister. Her mum's Hermione too but her dad is our dad. It's complicated."

Britty Boo nodded then said, "So how come your dad married your mum and not Hermione?"

Peyton sighed and said, "Dad and Hermione slept together at school and Ellie was the result. Dad didn't know anything about her until she was nine months old. He left school and his family to live in Blackpool for a while and he went back to see everyone because our mum wrote him a letter to say that everyone thought he was dead. Well he went back and suddenly he became a dad then got with our mum because she had been his girlfriend at school but they had split up. From what we've been told he realised that he was in love with her and asked her to be his girlfriend again then we came along. They went fifteen years without being married but decided that they wanted to get married so they eloped when we were fourteen. Mum was pregnant with Jamie when they got married and they briefly split up after an argument about us when we were fifteen. Mum was really upset that they had split up and she fell down the stairs at our nana's house. Our nana took mum to hospital and that was the day that Jamie was born. Then our dad came back when we were seventeen. They then had Trinity and stayed together and had Sirius and here we are today. It's complicated but that's how we like it. We look at Hermione as though she's our second mum as well as our aunt."

Britty Boo nodded to show that she understood.

"So you're a close family then?"

Peyton nodded while Maddy began to talk.

"Yeah. Dad, Ron and Hermione were best friends at school. He spent nearly every summer at nana's house so he was like another son to nana. That meant a lot to dad because he didn't have any family apart from an aunt, uncle and cousin who hated him and that's how he got to know mum. Ron and Hermione lived with mum and Ellie in our house when dad left. When he came back they stayed until we were born. Apparently they only moved out so they could give mum and dad some privacy with us and the house was crowded with four adults, three newborn babies and two toddlers in it but they're always round there though. They only really go home to sleep."

Britty Boo nodded again and focused her attention back to the television. She seemed satisfied with what she had been told. Maddy grinned at Peyton then looked at the television. Peyton rolled her eyes and sat down on the black leather armchair.

"Mads, do you want a baby?" Peyton asked.

Maddy looked at Peyton and shook her head as she realised what Peyton was going to say next.

"You don't want to have a baby with him do you? It would be crazy like him."

"Maddy I love him. It's natural for me to want a baby with the man I love."

"He's no man Peyton. No man would ever hit a girl."

Maddy realised that her last comment had hurt her sister's feelings. She got up from her seat and sat on the arm of the armchair. She put her arm loosely around Peyton's shoulders and looked at her.

"I know that you love him but Peyton he hit you. He hurt you. If he loves you as much as he says he does then he wouldn't have done that to you. Dad's not happy that you're still with him," Maddy explained.

"Well he'll have to live with it. I have to go see Professor Jeftha and you have to go to work now."

Maddy nodded her head, got up and walked out of the front room. She went into the kitchen and started to pack her bag before thinking of something. She poked her head round the front room doorframe and looked at Peyton.

"Will you be here when I get home? I finish at six," she asked.

Peyton nodded her head.

"Good. That means that I don't have to take my keys. I only have to take some money to get something to eat now."

Maddy then walked back into the kitchen and grabbed her bag off the kitchen table. As she walked out of the door she shouted good-bye. Peyton sighed then got up from the armchair, grabbed Maddy's set of keys from the coffee table then walked out of the front door. Once the door was shut, Peyton imagined the toilet cubicle that she usually apparated into and turned on the spot. Then with a small 'pop' she vanished into thin air. She knew that the cubicle would be empty because both her and Jazzy had cursed the toilet and now it never worked no matter how many times the engineer had thought he'd fixed it. Within a few seconds of disapparating away from her front door, Peyton had appeared in the toilet cubicle. She poked her head round the door to make sure that no one else was around before exiting. She then looked quickly in the mirror and washed her hands then walked out of the bathroom. Peyton walked quickly to the classroom and knocked on the door. She heard Professor Jeftha beckon her in and opened the door slowly.

"Hi Professor Jeftha," Peyton said timidly.

Professor Jeftha looked up from what she was writing and smiled at Peyton.

"Well hello there Peyton. Sit down. What can I help you with?" Professor Jeftha replied.

Peyton sat down and sighed.

"I've been thinking and I've decided that I would like someone to tutor me. I thought that if I didn't swallow my pride and ask for help then I would fail. My dad would kill me if I failed and I'd get the extended disco version of 'I told you that you would never make it on your own.'"

Professor Jeftha laughed then said, "Okay then. I'll get that sorted for you. Hopefully once you've settled into the tutoring routine the work that I will see will be your full learning potential. I have high hopes for you Peyton. You can go very far in this course."

Peyton nodded then said thank you before walking out of the classroom. She then made her way back to the apartment and watched television until Maddy got back. A couple of hours later, Maddy knocked on the front door. Peyton opened it and looked at her scowling twin.

"What's wrong with you?" Peyton asked as Maddy walked past her.

She walked into the bedroom that she shared with Matt and threw her bag at the bed. As she walked out she heard someone shout at her but Maddy didn't care about it. Maddy walked back into the front room with Peyton hot on her heels, and flopped down onto the sofa. Peyton knelt on the floor and rubbed Maddy's back.

"What's wrong?" Peyton asked.

Maddy moved her head so she could look at Peyton.

"Guess who I saw today," she said quietly.

Peyton shrugged her shoulders and looked expectantly at Maddy.

Maddy sighed then said, "Matilda Malfoy. She came into the shop for some Potion ingredients."

"So?" Peyton told her as she shrugged her shoulders again.

"What do you mean so? She thought I was you. She called me Peyton Potter then flashed me her wedding ring. Apparently mummy and daddy spent Harmony's wedding money on her wedding."

Peyton nodded then said, "Did you tell her what Harmony said about sending her letters and Tori?"

Maddy nodded her head and groaned.

"Why did I have to run into her? My life was so much simple without her in it."

Peyton nodded then giggled.

"POTTER!" they heard Ben shout from the bedroom.

Maddy looked at Peyton and shrugged. Peyton looked at Maddy with fear etched on her face and stood up.

"I'd better go and see what he wants," she said.

She walked out of the front room and up the magnolia hallway. Peyton walked into her blue bedroom and saw Ben sat at his desk. When she walked in he quickly shut his laptop and looked at Peyton.

"What did you call me for Ben?" Peyton asked.

"Get me a cup of coffee," Ben replied.

Peyton nodded and walked out of the bedroom. She walked back down the hallway and into the kitchen. She quickly made a cup of coffee then walked back to the bedroom. When she reached the bedroom door she heard Matt's voice coming from the bedroom and listened for a few minutes before going in.

"Matt, I feel really evil for what I did to her. I really didn't mean to hit her," Ben said glumly.

"I know you didn't. Everyone knows that you didn't do it intentionally. Just give her what she wants and everything will be okay," Matt replied.

"Yeah I hope so."

Peyton knocked on the bedroom door and opened it. She walked in and put the cup down on the desk. She turned to face Ben and smiled.

"Could I talk to you for a moment please?" she asked.

Ben nodded and motioned for Matt to leave. Matt walked out of the bedroom shutting the door behind him. Once the door was shut, Ben stood up and led Peyton by the hand to the bed where they both sat down.

"What's up?" he asked.

"Well I want a baby," Peyton replied.

Ben sighed and looked at Peyton.

"You want a baby?" he asked.

Peyton nodded her head enthusiastically.

"With me?"

"Yeah, with you. Whom else would it be with?"

Ben laughed and hugged Peyton.

"I would be honoured to have a baby with you," he said into her hair.

Peyton smiled, broke the hug and walked out of the bedroom. Once the door was shut Ben sighed.

"How am I going to get out of that one," he muttered to himself.
