AN: So sorry for not updating sooner everyone. I've kind of have had no motivation to update this story (sorry but its true). I have no idea how long this story will end up being but it won't last much longer. Once again anything you recognize is JK Rowling's anything you don't is mine.

January 4, 2003

Sirius and I sat across from Emily as she sobbed brokenly into her hands. I cried silently as she told us of what had happened between her and Nigel. How they had believed they had been ready to take their relationship to the next level. They had been careless, not taking the potion or doing the contraceptive spell. It had been a few weeks ago when she started to feel sick and she took the test.

I pulled her into my arms as she sobbed. "I'm – sorry."

My throat was thick with tears and even Sirius looked upset. "We can get through this, Sweetheart."

Her arms wrapped even tighter around me and she practically crawled into my lap. Sirius wrapped his arms around me and blinked his eyes quickly. After a moment of giving into into the pain I pulled away from Emily and wiped my cheeks.

"Have you thought about keeping the baby or adoption?" I asked jumping right into it. Emily looked surprised and bit her lip.

"I want to keep it." I nodded and let out a relieved breath. Emily may have made a mistake but I don't think she would ever get over giving up her child.

"Okay, we need to set up an appointment with St. Mungo's, talk to Severus and get you some prenatal potions and you need to tell Nigel." Her whole face crumpled and a few tears leaked out of the corners of her eyes. "And you need to calm your emotions or you could hurt the baby."

Sirius POV

June 25, 2003

I watched as Emily and Nigel held hands and walked around the garden in the backyard. All I wanted to do was strangle the man who had deflowered my daughter but I had never seen Emily so happy in my life. She loved the child growing inside of her and the man at her side. Hermione and I were rather curious to when Nigel would propose. She and I both had a feeling it would be soon but who knew with them.

They had graduated from Hogwarts just a few days before. Some of the old Pure-blood's had been furious that a pregnant teenager had gone to the school but Severus had been able to find an old book in the headmaster's office about all the things hidden at Hogwarts. Student teacher relationships that didn't end in marriage, a teacher in drag and even a few pregnancies.

"How are they doing?" Hermione asked jiggling Sarah in her arms.

"Fine, I think." I muttered watching them.

"Don't you think you should give them some privacy?" I growled deep in the back of my throat.

"Yeah, the last time they had privacy Emily became pregnant!" I spat darkly closing the curtains. "This was not the life I expected for her!"

"I didn't want this for her either!" Hermione snapped her eyes flashing. "They could still break up! Emily would be heartbroken if that happened!"

"You don't think I know that? She practically worships the ground he walks on!" I growled.

"Is it so much to just want her to be happy?" Hermione asked plopping Sarah into her play pen. "She is happy with him and he's a good nice man. Everything will work out!"

"You're not listening to me!" I snapped. Hermione recoiled her face pinching with pain. After a moment she completely hid her feelings behind a mask. Merlin...

"Then explain it to me." She said her voice deathly quiet. I just shook my head seething. I couldn't explain myself when I was this mad. When she realized I wasn't going to say anything she glared at me. "Don't bother coming to bed tonight, the couch is all yours."

I watched her stamp out of the room in shock. What was going on with us? We had barely ever fought before! I sighed and sat heavily on the couch. I needed to fix this... but how?

Hermione POV

I cried silently into the pillows surrounding me. Without Sirius beside me the bed was just too big. I sniffled and wiped my nose with the back of my hand. What was wrong with me? I usually had a pretty level head about things but this time my emotions were just all over the place. I hadn't even meant the words I had said.

I sighed and tried turning over again but it didn't seem to be helping. My heart slammed in my chest as I thought about the fight Sirius and I had had. We had never fought like that before Emily had gotten pregnant. I sniffled and wiped my nose.

A pair of arms slid around me and I stiffened. "What are you doing here?"

"I came to apologize." Sirius whispered placing a kiss against the back of my neck. I wanted to pull away and tell him to leave me alone. But I couldn't. I wanted my husbands comfort even though he was the one who had hurt me. "I was wrong to yell at you."

"I'm sorry I yelled at you too." I whispered interlocking our fingers. "Its just my emotions are all over the place and I don't know why."

"Are you on your period?" Sirius asked running his fingers through my hair. From the way he had said it I knew he was only curious not trying to blame me.

"No." I said and then froze. "Shit!" I sat up dropping my hands to my stomach.

"That's not funny Hermione." Sirius said darkly.

"Does it look like I'm laughing?" I snapped grabbing my wand off the nightstand. I waved my wand a few times then frowned when my stomach pulsed yellow. So I wasn't pregnant and my period was late. What the hell was going on?

"I think we should go to St. Mungo's and get you tested in the morning." Sirius said running his fingers through my hair.

"Fine." I sighed falling back against the pillows. Was something wrong with me? No, I shook my head, I would be fine.

Someone suddenly started to pound quite frantically on the door. "Come in." Sirius called.

Nigel and Emily ran into the room their hands entwined. Emily was crying and Nigel was smiling brightly.

"What is it? What happened?" I asked jumping up from the bed. Sirius followed a moment later and placed his hand on my shoulder.

"I proposed and Emily said yes!" I squealed and wrapped my arms around Emily. I knew everything would work out!
