When Worlds Collide ~EDITING~

~ Defensive ~

Draco was exited too, he couldn't wait to see his little friend again. They got really close when we went to Greece, which I was super grateful for. It would be pretty hard to deal with when she comes here to attend Hogwarts and they don't like each other.

She just turned 10, which I cried about. But it wasn't my fault... it was the pregnancy hormones.

Well, that's what I'm telling people.

I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realize that I ate more than half of the cookies. Oops. I got up and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth, praying that I didn't get any cavities with how much sugar I had been eating lately.

A few hours later:

"I miss you so much, buddy." I heard Draco say. Who was he talking to? My half awake mind could barely process the fact that my shirt was pulled up, revealing my very swollen belly.

It was huge.

Most days I couldn't get out of bed by myself. I felt gigantic and very unattractive. The new stretchmarks that littered my skin made me sob one day in the shower. Draco promises me that I still look beautiful, and that if anything this all makes me more beautiful because I was bringing a baby into the world.

His baby.

There were gentle kisses placed around my belly, his warm hands placed on the sides, near my hips. "We're gonna see each other again soon, in 2 and a half months. Can you believe it? Time has been going by super fast. And guess what? Mama and I are getting married in a week! I can't wait.

"I finally get to call her my wife. My beautiful wife. Chantel Malfoy.

"Your auntie Eysis is coming over today. Mama is super exited, I know she missed her a lot, and I did too. 

"That little girl is something else, she's like the little sister that I never had. I can't wait for you to meet her. Oh, and by the way, you should really let Mama get more rest. Give her a break, it can't be easy carrying a whole other human inside your body. She deserves a lot of credit for that.

" When you fall in love one day either with a boy or a girl- I'm not judging- and maybe when you have children you will understand feeling bad for them while they are carrying the baby because it's really hard. She is super strong. Maybe you could make her crave something healthy instead of all those cookies? And lay up on the nausea, buddy, the poor woman is going to vomit her guts out, including you if you keep this up.

" I am so thankful for her, she's the best thing that has ever happened to me, I don't know how I'll ever show her show her how grateful I am for her." 

I couldn't hold it in anymore.

 "Aww, Dray, you're gonna make me cry stop it." I laughed when I felt him jump away from me. Clearly someone didn't expect me to be awake. "What are you doing?" He cleared his throat, "I- um- erm... I was talking to Matthew." 

He sat up, suddenly getting defensive, "You act like you don't do the same! There is nothing wrong with me speaking to my child. Don't look at me with those judgemental eyes." 

My eyes were closed. I hadn't even opened them yet.

 "Right... Well good morning to you mister defensive Draco. And good morning my sweet little Matthew!" I cooed at my belly, gently rubbing it. I felt a kick against my side, against my palm and I smiled. 

Whenever people talk to him he gets super active, my boy's gonna love to talk when he's older.

 "Come on, Dray, we've got to get up now. We need to pick up Eysis from Mcgonagall's office at noon." He groaned, burying his face into my belly, "No. We've got time. I don't wanna get up yet" I clicked my tongue, "Fine, I guess I'll get in the shower then." He was up within the next 5 seconds.

Added part starts here!!

"Have you spoken to the girls recently?" Draco asks me while we're on our way to Mcgonagall's office. 

I frown. 

I haven't spoken to them all week. What have I been doing that's more important than talking to my best friends? 

I've been extremely selfish, only worrying about Draco and Matthew. I need to fix that after Eysis goes home. They must hate me right now. 

"No," I sigh, "I've been a terrible friend, haven't I?" Oh, Merlin. Here come the waterworks. 

"No!" Draco exclaims, "Fuck. I didn't mean to make you cry. You're not a terrible friend,  we've all been living our own lives. Besides, they can reach out to you as well, it's not just you that has to make an effort." 

He stops us in the middle of the hall, luckily no one was here to see me crying like a big ass baby.

"We're gonna be parents soon, we have other priorities now. We can't just go to a club and get blackout drunk anymore. We're adults now, with real life responsibilities, they understand that. No one is going to be mad at you for having your shit together." 

He pulls me into his chest, cradling my tear stained face. "You are not a terrible friend, you hear me?" 

I sniffle, gathering my thoughts. "Are you sure they won't be mad at me?" He scoffs and places his warm hands on my wet cheeks, wiping the tears away with the pads of his thumbs. "I'm positive, and if they do have a problem tell them to come to me. Don't stress over it, baby, it's not good for you or Matthew. I love you." 

I nod, staring into his eyes. I can always tell what he's feeling through his eyes. Even when his face is blank, his eyes give everything away. Well to me at least. 

When he's angry his eyes squint a little, when he's happy they get wide and crinkle in the corners, and when he's sad they have this dull color to them. That's something I don't like to see too often. 

Right now all I can see is his adoration for me. He looks at me like I'm the only star in the sky. I love it when he does that, when he makes sure that he knows how special I am. 

I feel the same for him. There are no words to describe how much love I feel for him. 

He's my everything, the reason why I breathe. There is no living without him, before him I wasn't living, I was simply existing. I couldn't survive without him, I won't survive without him. I don't want to be in a world where he doesnt' live. 

"Let's go see my little sister in law." He grabs my hand and pulls me down the halls. The excitement radiating off of our skin in string waves. 

Lets enjoy these next few days before reality sinks in. 

We're having a baby soon, and getting married... very soon.
