The couple was on their way home for the holidays. They were cuddling in their usual compartment.
"I can't believe that we've been together for almost a year."
Amber smiled at him and said. "Me too."
"Would it be too soon to talk about taking the next step?" Tim asked.
"As in, making love?"
Tim nodded.
"So, you want a piece of this," Amber teased.
Tim smirked and said. "I suppose you want piece of me too." his bicep flexing unintentionally.
Amber had become obsessed with her boyfriend's arms lately.
"Are you ready for that step?" Tim asked.
Amber nodded. They continued chatting until they reached King's Cross and found their respective parents. Amber found her dad pushing a three month old cooing in her pram. Her dad looked exhausted.
"Hey dad," she greeted her dad giving him a hug.
"Hey sweetie."
Amber finished greeting her dad.
"This is your sister, Sapphire," Elliot said, picking up his infant daughter and handing her to Amber.
She looked down at her baby sister. She was perfect. Her brown hair was growing and her green eyes were looking curiously up at her. She was in love with her sister. She put her down in her pram. Amber said a quick goodbye to Tim.
It was a few days later, Sapphire was getting baptised.
"Hey Amber," Donovan greeted.
She turned and smiled at the boy. She had nothing against him it was his aunt that she had a problem with.
"Sapphire is beautiful, isn't she?"
Amber nodded.
"It's good that she looks more like your dad than my aunt."
Before Amber could respond an arm wrapped around her waist protectively.
"Hey, am I interrupting anything?" Tim asked a hint of jealously in his voice.
Amber shook her head and replied. "Timmy, there's nothing to worry about."
Before Tim could reply the baptism started.
It was a few days later, Amber had to work. She was also babysitting her sister. Talk about stressful. She was currently on her lunch break feeding her sister.
"You're much too young to have a baby," a judgemental voice said.
Amber looked up to see an older lady.
"You're what, fifteen?"
Amber glared at her and said. "She's my sister for your information and I'm sixteen."
"She doesn't look like your sister."
Amber continued glaring at her tears prickling the back of her eyes. The woman walked away. Amber left the usual lunch spot. She sat down on the nearest bench to get a hold of herself.
"Some people can be so judgemental," Amber sighed, taking her sister out of her pram to finish feeding her.
The three month old cooed as she sucked on the bottle. Amber watched her sister eat.
"What a beautiful baby," a voice said.
Amber looked up to see a woman who looked about her dad's age.
"How old is she?"
"She's three months, just so you know she's my little sister."
The woman nodded and said. "What's her name?"
"Sapphire and I'm Amber."
The woman smiled and said. "Your parents must have a thing for gemstones. I'm Jane."
Amber nodded.
"I have a daughter who is a year and a half. Her name is Polly," she said.
The two women continued chatting and parted ways. She really enjoyed the older woman.
It was now time to board the train. Amber met up with Tim who greeted with a passionate kiss. The couple boarded the train. They sat in their usual compartment.
"So, when do you want to make love for the first time?" Tim asked his beloved.
Amber thought for a second and said. "Maybe around my birthday in August."
"I was hoping you'd say sooner," Tim groaned.
She giggled at her boyfriend's disappointment as she gave him a kiss. He deepened the kiss as his hands tangled in her hair. They had a passionate snogging session until the sweet trolley arrived.
It was now time for the group to try and learn Patronuses.
"Expecto Patronum!" The group yelled.
Not everyone got it at first. Harry's was a stag. Hermione's was an otter.
"Your turn, guys," Harry said, walking over to Amber and Tim.
Tim casted the charm and his Patronus was an adorable fennec fox. He didn't look happy about it but Amber couldn't stop laughing as she casted her charm it turned out to be a lemur.
After the meeting the couple was walking back to the Hufflepuff common room.
"I can't believe my big strong boyfriend has a Patronus of an adorable fennec fox," Amber chuckled.
"I can show you how adorable I can be," Tim smirked flirtatiously.
Amber glanced around for an abandoned classroom and tugged her boyfriend towards it. They began a snogging session. Tim inched his hand up his girlfriend's shirt until it landed on her bra clad breast.
"I thought you were more of a leg guy, Tim," she cooed.
That was the truth he couldn't keep his eyes off her legs ninety percent of the time. If he was bored during class he'd always rest his hand on her upper thigh dangerously close to the hem of her skirt. That would lead to a snogging session if they didn't have class after that.
The couple finished snogging and continued walking towards the Hufflepuff common room. Once at the Hufflepuff common room, Tim kissed her goodbye.
