A\N: Recently I've discovered my OTP in Harry Potter is Lucius and Narcissa. I don't why I love this couple but I just do. Enjoy, Angels.
Malfoy Manor is quiet and dark by the time Lucius Malfoy enters his study via the Floo Network. His study is just as dark and quiet as the rest of the Manor with only the darkening sky for light now that the green flames evaporated the second he landed in his fireplace. It's been 3 months since his wife, Narcissa, lost their baby. Speaking of his darling wife, Narcissa hasn't spoken to him properly, only yes or no, since their loss, though he supposes he's not helped the silence between him and his wife since he's been throwing himself into his work at the Ministry the week after the loss of their baby.
"Dobby!" Lucius yells. The house elf appears in a second with a soft 'pop'. "Yes, Master?" The pink elf asks. The wizard looks at the elf. "Has my wife eaten today?" Dobby shakes his head. Lucius closes his eyes. "Mistress Narcissa asked not to be disturbed today." The house elf answers his master who sighs deeply. "Thank you, Dobby, you may go." He dismisses the creature with a wave of his hand and leaves his dark study to go find his wife.
In another part of Malfoy Manor, Narcissa Malfoy lies in the bed of her darkened bedroom underneath the dark green covers,wearing a green slip, her blonde hair in a ponytail and her head on a green pillow. She hasn't left her bed all day and hasn't spoken to her husband in 3 months, not since she lost their baby. She's not seen her husband properly in 2 months and 3 weeks. He went back to work a week after they found out they wouldn't be parents, throwing himself into his work.
Tears well up in the blonde witch's eyes as she thinks about her husband: he's not held her in 3 months, he's not kissed her in 3 months, he's said the three words he used to say to her 5 times a day since the morning that dreadful day 3 months ago and she hates it. It's almost as if he's blaming her for the loss of their baby, which she knows he doesn't.
The bedroom door opens and closes quietly but she doesn't turn away from the window she's staring at. She hears the soft footsteps of her husband coming towards the bed until the bed dips with his weight, his hand on her covered back. To her credit, she doesn't shake him off like she would've done 3 months ago. "Narcissa, love, are you okay?" Her husband asks her, his voice soft. It's the first time he's asked her that in months. Why is he asking me that months after the event? She asks herself. "Cissa, look at me, please." Her husband practically begs Narcissa sighs and rolls over, looking at her husband. "Oh so you're actually talking to me now? You care about how I'm feeling do you?" She snaps at him. Lucius lies down beside her. "Cissa, I know I haven't been around a lot these last few months, but this has got to stop." Her husband says firmly. Narcissa looks at her husband in confusion.
"What are you talking about?" She asks. Lucius glares softly at her. "The whole Manor has been submerged in darkness for months, you've hardly eaten, you're staying in bed all day and I'm sick of it. I know you're mourning but so am I." Tears slip down her face. "Oh really?" She asks sarcastically. Lucius pulls her into his arms and kisses her hair. "Of course I am, I also lost a baby love." The wizard says softly. Narcissa sighs and buries her face in her husband's robes and just sobs. "It's okay, love. I'm here, I'm here." Lucius soothes his wife. "I love you, Cissa, so much." Lucius whispers in his wife's hair. Narcissa lifts her head from her husband's robes and looks into his grey eyes.
"I love you too, Lucius. The witch says before kissing him for the first time in three months.
A\N: This is a sad oneshot and this is a real topic that I think not a lot of people write about.
This is my second Harry Potter oneshot in a day. I hope you Angels all enjoy this one. I sliced my finger on a knife while unloading the dishwasher so I'm in pain, so I'm sorry if there are any spelling mistakes. I'm working on a Harry/Sirirus godson/godfather comfort oneshot so hopefully I will have that out before midnight but it will be out tomorrow at the latest. Enjoy, Angels.
