BLAIRE POV

I had just finished leading the newest lions to the common room with Rick before showing them upstairs and falling back on my bed with a sigh.

"Whats wrong Blaire? Prefect already got you down?" Jasmine Lonbottom asked me with a slight laugh, her blonde hair slightly moving in her loose bun held by her wand.

"Or is it boy troubles?" Penny Macmillan asked as she smiled from her bed, her arms supporting her head as she layed on her stomach.

"I'm nkt going to say you are right Pen, but I'm not going to say ypire wrong either."

"Ooooh! Spill that cauldron out! I need to hear this!" She said excitedly and she sat up on her knees and leaned forward slightly.

"Let me guess... Albus Potter-Malfoy again?" Jasmine smirked from her bed.

"Ugh. Rick has helped me so many tikes trying to make him jealous but nothing is working. I wish I could just see if he likes me or not."

"I have a feeling I know who he might like but you wouldn't like it." Jasmine said with a small frown.

"What do you mean?" I asked as I sat up and leaned against my headboard.

"I saw him eyeballing Zach in Potions class a lot last year. I wouldnt be surprised if he likes him."

"But Zach likes Scorpius." Penny said. "Cedric Finch-Fletchley told me he found drawimgs in their room last year of Scorp hidden in Zach's pillow."

We both gave her odd looks before she shrugged.

"Dude is my dad's best friend's son. I have to talk to him sometimes. Besides, his mom is good looking so he's hot."

We laughed at her before I thought about it.

If Albus likes Zach, and Zach likes Scorp, and Scorp likes Ronnie, we have a big problem on our hands because Ronnie is secretly going oit with someone else. But..... shpuld I tell Scorp?

"I know that look. Dont do anything you might regret Blaire." Panny said with a stern face before I nodded and we all started to get ready for bed.

WALLY POV

"You want me to what!?" I shouted up at my father who smirked down at me as Sarah and Jeffrey stood on the side of the wall watching the exchange.

"You heard me. You have nothing better to do so for the time being, you will take care of this child that Sarah found until her and Jeffrey can figure where the parents are."

"But father.... I know nothing about raising children!"

"Really? You helped a lot when your brothers were born."

"When I was three!? Youre taking this back to then?"

"Don't worry. I already worked it out and you wont be alone on this."

"Who else is taking care of the baby with me?"

"Why Jeffrey of course." Blaise said as stepped out from beside me father.

"What!?" Jeffrey asked from his corner of the room. "When did I get roped into this?"

"Because that child will need someone else who can support it for now and if someoje attacks, it is better to have two rather than one. Besides, youre best friends. It shouldnt be that difficult to spend so much time together." Blaise said before my father added to what he was saying.

"You two will get to stay at the old Potter manor by yourselves or you can chose to stay on the other wing of the Malfoy manor in case you need me for any reason, if I am hoke of course. Your choice."

I looked towards Jeffrey who sighed and shook his head.

"Potter manor I suppose," he said before my father smirked.

"Excellent. Jeffrey, you will hage the next few weeks off while Roy helps Sarah in your place. Your things will be apparated immidiately and the manor should already be well kept by the house elves who inhabit the manor. Good luck. And remember to call if you have any issues."

Sarah handed me the child and told me their name was Jamie before Jeffrey and I apparated to the old Potter manor. Jamie started to cry and I quickly hushed them down and rubbed circles on their back to make sure to ease the pain of apparation.

"I think the first thing that needs done is getting them a bath. Look at how much dirt is caked on their face." I said as I opened the doors and sighed. "Makes me think of if we ever looked like this."

"Hey. That will never happen to us again. Our parents love us. And for the tike being we are going to take care of this baby and make sure to love them because we might be the only ones to show that to this small creature."

I smiled at him before we walked upstairs to one of the bathrooms. A house elf appeared and brought me some towels and old baby clothes before I ran a little bit of water in the tub.

"You really know your way around huh?"

"Of course I do. We used to spend the summers here as kids. Now we just stay at home though I guess."

I finished running the water and took off Jamie's dirty clothing and diaper before placing her in the tub and washing her off gently. I transfigured some baby soap and began to wash her off as carefully as I could once I saw the small purple marks on her light skin.

"I cant believe she looks this bad." I said as I washed out her hair and rinsed her off, careful not to get soap in her eyes.

"I know. The fact anyone can hurt a child is beyond me." Jeffrey sighed as he accioed a towel and we dried her off before putting her in a fresh diaper and a small white onsite covered in little black cauldrons.

"We shpuld probably go into Hogsmeade and get some groceries and baby stuff before it gets too late." I suggested before trasfiguring a small baby sling and placing Jamie into it while Jeffrey and I went to Hogsmeade.

Temporary Parenthood, here we come.
