Chapter 20
~ Four Months Later ~
Each side had its losses that day but in the end, the dark prevailed. In addition to Savion, we lost McNair, Bulstrode, and Goyle Sr.. Daddy was really proud because in my rage I got Lupin and Creevey. Bella finally finished off the Longbottoms and Blaize took out George Weasley. We took the ministry a few days later. Hogwarts closed soon after the Order was forced into hiding. I'm sure you're wondering about Draco. It was a crazy time. I still remember those days.
~ It had been two weeks with no change. Blaize had been desperately trying to get me to eat and sleep but I refused to leave Draco's side. "Come on Rach, just come with me to the dining room."
"No." I said, my eyes never leaving the figure in the bed.
Blaize grabbed my arm. I looked up at him shocked. "You have to eat. You're going to hurt the baby."
"Baby?" I gasped. It was the voice I had been longing to hear. I nearly jumped into the bed. "Rae…"
"Thank Merlin you're okay!"
"Rae… Oxygen…"
"Right," I sat up on the edge of the bed. Blaize had discretely left us alone. Probably went to grab some food. "Draco, I have to tell you something."
"Does it have anything to do with what you and Blaize were arguing about?" he asked.
"Yeah," I closed my eyes and took a breath. "Draco," he took my hand in his, " I'm pregnant."
"Rae," I prepared myself for the worst, "Rae that's wonderful!" he exclaimed weakly.
"Oh Draco! You're really happy?"
"I couldn't be happier. I have a beautiful fiancé who is healthy, I feel much better, and I'm going to be a father." He motioned for me to lay with him.
I lay back down on the bed and cuddled up to his side. I was content to spend the next month just lying there in his arms. A while later, I finally realized something. "Drae?"
"Hmm?" he looked down at me.
"I'm hungry." We both laughed. It was then that Blaize decided to show up with all our favorite foods. I think he may have been spying~ just saying.
"Hey mate, thought you might be hungry," he said to Draco.
"I don't know about him, but I am!" I practically lunged for the food.
"Now that is how a pregnant lady is supposed to act!" Blaize said laughing.
I glared at him, "Shut up and go get me some pickles." The boys had a good laugh.~
We didn't wait long after that day to get married. Our wedding was held in April. It was a beautiful dark wedding. Daddy walked me down the isle. It was sad that not all of our friends could attend because of the war, but it was nice nonetheless. I had a wonderful, beautiful wedding dress.

I didn't start to show until after the honeymoon in the Bahamas. I'm really glad we live in Wiltshire. I don't think I could stand being pregnant in the summer otherwise. I am already miserable. The baby is due in September- a little girl according to the medi-witch. Draco and I couldn't be happier. Things have been going great for us.
Little did we know we were headed straight into the darkness…
A/N: Okay…love it? Hate it? Let me know. I'll be on Hiatus for a while but don't worry. I'll be working on the sequel from time to time. When I get a few chapters written, I'll start posting it.
