WAKING UP TO A WHITE CEILING AND BRIGHT LIGHT. Fluttering her eyelids as the light hit her eyes. She looked around to see Stella sleeping on the sofa. Her mind immediately went towards Sirius and their baby. She feels better, the pain was long gone.

"Solis? You're finally awake!" A voice recognized to be Helios Edwards.

"Eli. What happened? Where's Sirius?" She asked. That woke Stella up.

"Solis!" Stella sat up and approached the bed. Sitting on the chair beside it. "How do you feel?"

"Where's Siri?" Solis asked again. She feels anxious not seeing the boy. What if something happened to him?

"I'm here."

The girl immediately looked towards the door. There. Stood Sirius Black with his annoying smirk. Solis breathed in relief. He seems fine. She was about to move, but her body felt incredibly weak.

"No hurries. You're still not strong enough to move. You and your baby is healing." Helios stopped her.

"Fine."

"Drink this potion. Stella and I will give the both of you space to talk." The brother gave her a dark blue potion.

"I'll be back later, so don't shag here okay?!" Stella smiled.

"As if I would do it here." Solis scoffed.

"We can though." Sirius smirked making the girl roll her eyes.

Stella and Helios left the couple to have their own moment.

"How are you Sols?" He asked, intertwining their fingers. Giving her his support by stroking her palm with his thumb.

"I've been better. I'm just worried about the baby. How long was I out?"

"Two days." He answered, "I was so scared. You got hit by that wretched hex. I thought I was going to lose you." Sirius said sadly.

"You won't. I would never leave you." Solis promised. "But, how did you managed to get out of the house? Did anybody get hurt?" Hearing that, the boy frowned, seemingly sad. "Hey, what happened?"

"Regulus took a hit for me. He's in a comatose state. I checked on him earlier." Sirius admitted. Truthfully, he felt horrible, Regulus had his back all the time even when they hated each other. His little brother. The brother whom he left to suffer alone. The brother whom he thought was just a brainwashed boy. It feels like he failed to be a good big brother.

"Venenum Intraveritis!" Felix Rosier casted a spell towards Sirius Black. Seeing that, Regulus dropped everything and ran in front of Sirius. Taking the hit in his stead. Everybody was in shock.

Remus took advantage of this and stunned the death eaters. James took the initiative and petrified Felix Rosier. Sirius froze, his brother was down in front of him.

"Take him!" Helios ordered as he threw a hex towards the Blacks. The Rosier's were all down on the floor. Walburga and Orion Black were the last ones to stand up. They tried to fight back but obviously couldn't focus from the fact Regulus would take a hit for a bloodtraitor.

That snapped Sirius' shocked state and immediately carried Regulus and took him to the Floo network. His first thought was immediately going to St.Mungo's and he did.

"He's unconscious right now. Because I'm a terrible brother." Sirius muttered, "Maybe if I hadn't left." Regulus Black was hit by a dark spell. The effect is like a poison in his body. That is why he is in a comatose state.

"Siri. Look at me." She cupped his chin to look at her eyes, "What you did wasn't right. But, it wasn't wrong either. You did what you had to do. Your parents are awful. Yes. You could've done better, but there's no point in thinking about the past. You can be a better brother now."

"I guess..." Sirius sighed.

"I'm here for you." Solis said.

"I know." He smiled softly.

They didn't talk for a few minutes. Indulging in the comfortable silence between them. Suddenly, Solis remembered about Belle.

"How's Belle?"

"Hallow? She's better now. But, traumatized from whatever my parents did to her." A pang of guilt hit Solis. If they weren't related in any way, all these bad things won't happen to her.

"I know that look. You feel guilty don't you?" Sirius asked.

"I do."

"Love, if it wasn't her, it could be anyone else. There would make no difference. Don't beat yourself up for it."

"But-" Sirius crashed his lips onto hers. Giving her a soft kiss.

"You should take your own advice missy. No point thinking something of the past."

"Alright." Solis smiled. "Wait, but what will happen to all those death eaters?"

"The ministry were informed, but they already left and probably hid somewhere."

"What if your parents-"

"They wouldn't dare." Sirius interjected. Now that everybody knows what happened. If they were caught trying to hurt Solis, they will be a suspect and thrown to Azkaban.

"I hope so. But, Regulus, he's a death eater. He has the mark." Solis pointed out.

"Dumbledore managed to keep that information out. It seems like Reg has been talking with him about defecting."

"That's good."

"Yeah."

"When will I be out of here?" Solis sighed. The bed is so uncomfortable. She misses her home.

"Soon." Sirius chuckled. He already planned things to do for them.

"I can't believe we miss graduation."

"It's not that important."

"But it's symbolic! Going back with the boats. It's nostalgic Siri." She groaned and rolled her eyes.

"Yeah yeah." He chuckled. "You should get more rest."

"I basically slept for two days and you're asking me to sleep more?!"

"Yeah. Now sleep. I'll be next to you."

"Fine." Solis closed her eyes. Entering the state of a blissful slumber.

Sirius looked at the girl. She looked peaceful, so perfect. He grabbed something from his pocket. A small red box. He opened it, revealing a diamond ring. He is sure that she will be the only one he will ever spend the rest of his life with. The boy contemplates when to ask the question.

"When are you gonna pop the question?" That startled Sirius, he looked at Solis, she is already deep asleep.

"Soon. I don't know."

"What are you scared of?" Helios asked. "My sister won't say no."

"It's not that. Maybe we're too fast?"

"What do you mean too fast? You're literally about to have a baby." Stella interjected.

Sirius chuckled. They did the whole equation wrong. They made a baby, started to date and now he's about to propose.

"I'll just wait until she's back to health."

"Don't wait too long."

"I won't."
