Hey Guys, I raced to write this chapter before I go back to school as I am off at the minute. Hope you like this and I hope your enjoying the story, please review as it gives me a good wee reason to write this! Thanks guys!
I am not J.K Rowling, therefore I do not own Harry Potter.
Teddy POV
Disgust. Disgrace. Embarrassment. Stupidity. Lies. These were the things pulsing through my veins at two hundred miles an hour, writhing through my skin. I was sick to the stomach. How could she do this? How could she lie?
I was in love. For the first time, ever. How could I be so stupid to let my dreams, emotions and heart get in the way of everything that I have worked for, cared about the most? How could I let one girl change my thoughts on everything? How could I be so hurt but yet so angry?
And the stupid thing is; I am still in love with the woman who decided to go and get pregnant by another man. No, BOY. I thought she was my soul mate, she was the best thing that happened to me, she made my body light up every time I saw her, and I couldn't resist smiling, even if I was having a down day. How she has the most beautiful smile, hair, eyes and laugh. I have to admit, if that isn't love then I have nothing to explain this feeling.
It was quite dark now, half past 5, counting every minute passing. Harry told me once that he had found a home at Hogwarts and that was the only home he had known. I can't say I found a home there, believe me I tried. But it didn't work, the only place I felt safe and happy was here, in front of the tombstone reading my parents names. Parents I hadn't even met, never will. Here I felt complete, beside the two people who died to make the world a better place for me. And for that, it is all I could ask for.
"Hey mummy, Dad," I whispered. "Today, well today was the first time my heart has ever broken. It was by this girl, this girl I've always loved. She hurt me, a lot actually. I want to cry, scream but that's weak isn't it? I'm a man now, and it's not ok for men to cry? But I love her more than I love myself. But I hate what she is making me go through. I hate feeling like she pulled my heart out and walked all over it. But through this all I will still love her, still long to be her husband, her soul mate, to love and cherish her through the best and the worst. But a child, who isn't even mine? How can I take care of it when I can barely take care of myself? What if it doesn't want me as a father? Doesn't love me? I don't know what to do, to say. Please help mummy, please."
"Ted," a voice coughed from behind. I turned immediately, it was Harry. "Ted, I heard every word, go for her, and tell her how you feel or you will regret it, she loves you and that baby will love you. It was like me with you, and now you are my son, you always were. I didn't think I was ready, nobody really is. But you, you will be an amazing father, if you want to be."
I stood up, Harry looked frightened, and as I ran into his arms I always felt like I was at home, because Harry was now my father, and he always would be.
Walking back into the Weasley family home, I felt weird and afraid of what their reactions would be to my last visit that day, including me running out. As I walked in I realised that everyone was staring at me, I didn't care, my eyes were on Victoire, and the mess that was lying curled up on the sofa. She still looked as beautiful as ever. As she saw me, she got up and ran over.
"Ted, Ted, I am so so sorry for everything, I didn't mean for this to happen, I wasn't with you, I was lost Ted," she was crying now, I put a hand on her lip.
"Stop," I said as she began to talk again, and with that I kissed her on the lips and twirled her around, fingers running through her hair, it felt amazing. "I love you, and I will love this baby when it comes, it will be my child not his, mine." Victoire smiled brightly and my heart did somersaults.
"1 2 3 awwwwwww," I heard in the background, all the Weasley family were standing, watching. Fleur had tears in her eyes, Harry and Ginny beamed proudly, and Mrs Weasley was bawling.
"I love you Ted," Victoire said.
"I love you too Vic," I replied happily, "and I love you too baby."
