"Ralph's a good name if  you have taste. Which you two do not." Alayna says putting her hands on her hips.

"I'm still confused." Blaise says. "But I just wanted to say have a good Christmas." He turns around and walks back out the compartment.

I glance at Alayna but she just shrugs.

"Fine, his name can be Ralph, but his middle name has to be normal." I say.

"Hm, then Evan?" She suggests.

"Yeah, I like that." We exchange a smile, joined with a moment of silence.

"Well, Ralph Evan..." She starts, breaking the quietness but pauses.

"Parkinson." I say.

"Why does he get your last name?"

"Who made him?"  I queried.

"You." sighed Alayna.

"Exactly." I declared.

"Fine, Ralph Evan Parkinson." I nod in approval.

Alayna giggles.

"Is he like our child?" Alayna gasps.

"I guess so?" I say but it comes out as more of a question.

"Woah. I guess I'm a teen parent now." 

"Who's the father?" I giggle.

"River." She declares.

"No!" I yell.

"How about Snape?"

"No! That's even worse!" I exclaimed.

"Dumbledore?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Dumbledore's daddy." 

"What?"

"Nothing." She stands up and walks out of the compartment.

"Where? Where are you going?"

"I'll be right back." She says and leaves me alone, with Ralph.

I sit back down and wait. Two minutes later Alayna comes back with River.

"River we have a question for you." She says pulling him inside.

"We do?" I ask.

"We do." Alayna announced. River glances at me but I look back at Alayna who is holding Ralph.

"What?" River ask.

"We need a father for this dog."

"What?" River repeats.

"It's between you, Snape or Dumbledore." 

"What?" I try my best to hold in my laugh, but fail and let out a small giggle. River turns back to look at me but snaps his head back to Alayna when she starts talking.

"Pay attention River! We need to decide who the father of this dog is. The options are you, also known as River Davies, Professor Snape or Professor Dumbledore." She slows her words down so each word is divided.

"I'm paying attention, it's just not making any sense." River scoffs.

"What don't you get?" Alayna asks.

"Well first of all where'd you get this?" He points to Ralph.

"Peyton made it."

"Oh really? It's really good." He turns to me.

"Thanks." I blush.

"Anything else?" Alayna inquired.

"Yes. A lot actually." River declares.

"Go on then. We don't got all day do we?" Alayna puts her hands on her hips.

"We kinda do." I say and smile at Alayna. It is returned with a glare.

"Why does it need a father?" River asks.

"See River, when two doggies of the opposite sex love each other-"

"I know that." River cuts her off. "Just why does it need to have a father? Can't it be unknown? And why do I have to pick? And why Snape or Dumbledore? Like they're our teachers." 

"Exactly." I add.

"He has to have a father because we decided he did." We did not. "It cannot be unknown. You have to pick because Peyton said no to all the options. And because I made the options." Alayna says.

"Huh?" mumbles River, trying to put together what she just said.

"I answered your questions."

"I don't even remember them at this point."

"Okay but who's that dad?" She pokes River on the chest playfully.

"Well it depends. Who's the mom?" He looks between us.

"Peyton." When did we discuss that?

"Then I'll be the dad." And with that River turns around and walks out of the compartment.
