Narrator's POV

Hadrian had been acting very strange lately, in Tom's opinion.

His soulmate had been vomiting in the mornings and his temperature had been warmer than usual, but not warm enough for a fever.

His Queen has been experiencing a change in emotion in the matter of seconds and he was repulsed by his favorite foods, so the Dark Lord was worried about his Queen.

***

While Hadrian was asleep, Tom summoned Narcissa Malfoy, his healer, to figure out what was wrong with his beloved.

"What's been going on with the Queen, my Lord?" Narcissa asked, her voice a whisper to not wake Hadrian

"He's been vomiting, he has had mood swings, high temperature, and he's been avoiding food that he enjoys." Tom answered

"Have you and the Queen had intercorse lately?" Narcissa asked

"Yes, about a month ago." Tom replied, slightly embarrassed but his worry controlled it

Narcissa cast several diagnostic charms and smiled.

"My Lord," Narcissa said "I know what the Queen has."

"And it is?" Tom impatiently asked, worried

"He's a month pregnant." Narcissa answered

Complete shock covered the Dark Lord's face: he was going to be a father.

Then horror covered his face: he didn't know anything about children or pregnancy.

Seeing the shock, Narcissa soothed him, "I, myself, am not experienced with treating pregnancy or childbirth —past experiencing it myself — so I would suggest getting him a healer that specializes in pregnancy —one that specializes in male pregnancy if there is one. But I can tell you that he will have the most random food cravings, mood swings, nausea, dizziness, and fatigue. Also, he will have low self-esteem during the last stages, so give him constant compliments. And he will not give birth the normal way, the healer you choose would have to cut open the Queen's stomach to remove the baby, but an experienced healer can do so without leaving scars."

Narcissa left the room to floo home and Nagini slithered in.

If snakes could smirk Nagini was.

"Did I hear that you and your mate are having snakelings?" Nagini asked

"Yes." Tom answered

"It's about bloody time. You two go at it like the rabbits I hunt, I'm amazed he didn't get pregnant sooner." Nagini replied, curling up in front of the fireplace

***

Within a few days, the Dark Lord had found and contacted a healer that specialized in male pregnancy.

The healer, who introduced himself as Carlos Carrick, asked Tom and Hadrian what they already knew.

Tom repeated what Narcissa had said

"That is the majority of it," Healer Carrick said "but Hadrian's body, like all males, was not made to carry a child, but magic allows it to be so. Right now, the child would be using Hadrian's magical core to keep itself alive. So Hadrian's pregnancy will be more difficult than a normal pregnancy, so having you here, my lord, would be beneficial to both Hadrian and the baby's health so it can also use your core to relive Hadrian of the struggle for awhile. It has also been noted that if the non-pregnant partner during the pregnancy goes away for a long period for time the chance for miscarriage increases from a five percent chance to an eighty percent chance and the labor, if the baby survived the off one parent's core, would have a high risk of dying once separated from the womb, possibly even killing the 'mother'."

Tom's eyes widened at that; the death of your soulmate felt like ripping your soul in half, but unlike a horcrux, that pain would never fade.

"But as long as you don't leave for more than a few hours, my lord, all will be fine." Healer Carrick soothed

The healer than head to leave, "If any complications or any questions come up."

"We will." Hadrian replied

***

Six months later, Hadrian was seven months pregnant and his stomach proved it.

"I'm so fat." Hadrian commented on night while looking at the mirror

"If your stomach wasn't growing, love, I'd be concerned." Tom soothed, gently maneuvering his younger soulmate back to bed

"I know, but I look so ugly." Hadrian replied, cuddling against his husband

"Darling, I'd prefer to keep you like this: barefoot and your belly swollen with my child." Tom soothed, kissing his Queen's forehead

"I'm hungry." Hadrian said

"What would you like this time, my love?" Tom asked, summoning a house-elf

"Fish sticks and custard, pickles and chocolate and tomato juice with cream to drink." Hadrian answered

Tom was slightly disgusted by the cravings, but having a vase thrown at him in the earlier months taught him not to question it.

The house-elf quickly returned with the food and disappeared.

"We still haven't discussed names yet." Hadrian pointed out, dipping a pickle into the chocolate sauce and taking a bite

"I like Dante if it's a boy." Tom suggested

"I like it too." Hadrian said, taking another bite "If its a boy, he'll be Dante Valentino Riddle."

"And if it's a girl?" Tom asked

"Amelia. Uhhh, Amelia Claire?" Hadrian suggested, taking a sip at his juice with cream

"Amelia Claire Riddle, I like it." Tom replied

"What do you think it's found to look like?" Hadrian asked

"I don't care," Tom replied "I just hope it has your eyes."

***

Two months later on October 14, 2005, little Amelia Claire was born after a extremely long labor.

She had slightly curly black hair, Hadrian's green eyes, and a extremely adorable face.

Draco and Hermione were named her godparents and was a little hectic at first, but they got used to having the little one around.

***

But about a year later, Hadrian got pregnant again.

On June 28, 2007, Dante Valentino Riddle was born after an easier labor.

He had wild black hair, Hadrian's green eyes, but he had Tom's bone structure.

Neville and Luna were his godparents.

Sirius and Remus, of course, spoiled their godgrandkids and Nagini adored her little grandsnakelings.

The rest of the court, save Sirius and Remus, also had children of their own, thus giving Dante and Amelia lots of cousins.

And so, all was right with the world...
