My sister had to leave for an hour or so because of an emergency at her job, so now I was alone in my family estate. As lovely as it was, it was a bit too big for my liking and I always feel incredibly lonely whenever I'm alone in it for too long, but at least I had the house elves to keeping me company.

"Kiki!" I called out to my favourite house elf. She's worked for my family ever since I was born and would always help and play with me if my moms were busy, so I guess you could say we've grown to become good friends.

"Miss Delilah!" she exclaimed when she saw me, running up to me and wrapping her arms around my legs.

"How many times do I have to tell you, you can call me Lilah", I say, crouching down to her level.

"Sorry Lilah, but Kiki has missed you very much since you've gone away to Hogwarts", she said, whilst flattening her little light blue dress.

My family presented all of our house elves with clothes many years ago, but almost all of them decided to stay with us, and the ones that didn't would come and visit us often because we treated them with the respect that they deserve.

"Kiki has been told to tell you that Ms Mary and Ms Jenna will be home in about 5 minutes or so."

"Thank you Kiki", I said before giving her a quick kiss on her head and standing up. "I'll see you soon, okay?"

"Goodbye Ms Lilah", she said before disappearing off into the hallways of the house.

I only had a few minutes until my parents got home so I decided it would be a good idea to spend that time getting changed into some clean clothes. Since no one was coming round, and I wasn't feeling too well, I just decided to put on some grey joggers with a red crop top - nothing too special.

Just as I finished touching up my mascara and lip gloss I heard the front door open. I took a few deep breaths, I realised I've been doing that a lot lately, then headed out of my room and into the entrance hall to greet my moms.

"Mom!" I yelled as soon as I caught sight of them, then ran up to give both of them a huge hug. "I missed you guys soooo much."

"And we missed you too!"

"We're so glad our baby's finally home", they both said, each giving me a hug.

"C-can I talk to both of you about something, i-it's serious", I stuttered out, once we'd said our hellos.

"Oh course dear, everything's okay I hope", Jenna asked looking quite concerned.

"I g-guess so, it depends what you think", I said, getting very nervous again.

"Okay, I'll get the house elves to fix us up some tea then we can have a chat in the downstairs living room", Mary said before walking off to take of her coat and find a house elf.

A couple of minutes had passed and I was now sitting on an armchair in the living room with both of my moms staring at me, waiting for me to say something.

"Go ahead sweetie, whenever your ready", Mary said after I was silent, just staring at my mug of tea for a few minutes.

"You guys know Grayson right, one of my best friends at school?" I asked, finally speaking up.

"Ah yes, he's a lovely boy", Jenna said, smiling slightly

"Yes, such a gentleman", replied Mary, looking over to her wife.

"Okay. So anyway, he and I have grown pretty close over this last year, very close in fact, and, well, now I'm pregnant." I realised after I said it that I probably should have eased them into it a bit, but I just wanted to get it over and done with.

"Oh- um, don't worry dear, we'll- we'll help you through", Jenna said, obviously not expecting that.

"I know you're probably really angry at me but-" I started but before I could continue Mary put her hand on my knee.

"We're not angry at you darling, of course we're not. We're just a little... disappointed, that's all", she said whilst looking over to Jenna to check that what she was saying was alright.

"Really?!" I asked, slightly shocked, "so you aren't going to kick me out and disown me?"

"Of course we aren't going to do that sweetie!" Jenna replied, seeming very taken a back by my question.

"We will help you get through this as much as we can, every step of the the way", said Mary, whilst rubbing her thumb in circles on my knee in an attempt to comfort me.

"Thank you", I said quietly, suddenly becoming quite tired.

"So Grayson's the father then a presume", Jenna asked, just wanting to double check.

"Yeah, he is," I hate lying so much, especially to my parents, "But he hasn't told his dad yet, and I'm not sure when he'll be ready to so we'd appreciate if you didn't mention it to him, or anyone for that matter."

"We won't. We aren't really properly in contact with him so no need to worry".

"So we aren't even allowed to tell Narcissa?" Mary asked. I knew how close they were and how they told each other practically everything, but I didn't want to risk her knowing, then Draco possibly finding out.

"No, please. Don't tell anyone at all. I'd like to keep this as private as possible, and we definitely don't want Rita Skeeter knowing about this - that'd probably ruin me!" I quickly replied, just wanting this conversation to be over and done with.

Luckily, at that moment, Kiki walked in and told us that dinner was ready so we went over to the dining room and ate. Surprising they hardly mentioned my pregnancy but spent most of the time talking about their day, much to my relief.

-----

The holidays were going quite quickly, even though I spent most of my time cuddled up with a blanket in my bed, not wanting to move, or sitting on the bathroom floor waiting to be sick again. This pregnancy was not treating me well at all, with severe morning sickness almost every day, but thankfully as the days went on, it was getting a bit better and I managed to actually eat whole meals without vomiting.

Weeks had passed and it was now finally my birthday. Normally for my birthday my parents would throw me a huge birthday party with hundreds of guests, most of whom I didn't even properly know. However, this year we decided to not given the circumstances of me being pregnant and all, and the now confirmed return of Lord Voldemort himself.

So, my parents threw me a little birthday with just them, Anna, Ash, Luna and Cho, as they were the only ones that knew about my current state (I had owled Cho and Luna about it over the summer and luckily they were very understanding and supportive). I was slightly dreading having to see Gray as I knew my parents and sister would be asking him so many so I was slightly relieved when he said he and his father were away on a trip around Europe, therefore unable to make it to my party.

"Happy Birthday!" they all greeted me when they entered the estate.

Dinner was served and it was enough for at least 10 people so I had no idea how we were going to finish it all. I filled my plate up as full as I could, and I was happy that I could now use the excuse that I was technically eating for two.

Once everyone had finished their meal it was finally time to open presents - my favourite part. I was, of course, incredibly thankful for all of my gifts.

Anna got me a huge amount of clothes - gender neutral as we didn't know the gender yet - for the baby ranging from zero to six months (and, considering they were bought by Anna, they were incredibly trendy and some were even designer!)

From Ash, she got me some clothes to wear for when my belly gets bigger.

Luna bought me many products that would help get me through my pregnancy and birth as easily as possible.

And from Cho, I got multiple books about babies, birth and pregnancy.

Then Gray sent me a bunch of toys for the baby to play with and a few little shoes for them to wear.

And finally, my moms said that I would find out what they got me when returned to Hogwarts, which made me incredibly excited and nervous to say the least.

And with that, my birthday was over and I can say that it probably was the best party I've ever had, since I actually knew everyone there. I said my thank you and goodbyes then got changed for bed. I was absolutely shattered so as soon as my head hit the pillow, I fell straight asleep.
