'No Poppy I cant' I cried as I got hit with another contraction. 'Please Poppy I need Fred' 

'Aaliyah' Ginny called as she stood up and took my hand in hers. 'Its okay. You have me and Georgie and-'

'And me princess. Dont worry Im here' I heard as George dropped my other hand. 

'Freddie' I cried as he ran over to me and pulled me into a hug. 'Its alright princess. Im here' he told me as he kissed the top of my head. 

'Freddie what in Godrics name kept you -fucking hell' I asked and he looked at me worried.

'Im sorry, I didnt get the letter until after dinner and then I had to sign the discharge papers, and then the night healer had to come in and give me a whole talk about how important it is to stay sober, and then I had to get the Knight Bus here because you have my wand' he said and he looked at me sadly. 

'Its okay' I said as I pulled him into a small kiss, trying, yet failing to ignore the huge cramps in my uterus right now. 'Im just glad you made it her on time' I said and he smiled at me again. 'Me too princess, me too.'

'As lovely as this is, you need to start pushing now' Madame Pomfrey said looking to me. 'And you two' she said as she pointed to George and Ginny in turn. 'You really should leave. We dont need too many people in here' she said and Ginny looked over at me. 

'I promise we will get you as soon as- HOLY FUCK' I roared as I was hit with the biggest contraction yet. 'Okay Fred, you take her hand, Aaliyah you have to push now' she told me as the other two walked out of the room. 

---------------------

An hour and a half later, myself and Fred were both sitting on my hospital bed holding our two new born baby girls. Both myself and the two girls had been checked over by Madame Pomfrey who had just turned in to get some sleep before the rest of the school woke up. 

'Hello little one' Fred cooed as he looked down at the older twin. 'Merlin shes perfect isnt she Aaliyah. The both of them are. Godric Im so proud of you' he said as he kissed the top of my forhead. 

'They really are' I told him as I looked down at the younger twin that I was holding. 'So have you decided on the first names yet?' he asked me and I hummed quietly. 'I think so' I told him and he nodded. 

'Are you going to share or are you just not going to tell me?' he asked and I chuckled softly. 'You kept the middle names close to your own chest mister' I told him and he nodded. 'I know, here this is what we will do. You say the two first names and then I will tell you the middle names. Deal?' he asked and I looked up at him. 'Deal' I muttered with a huge smile on my face. 

'The older twin, the one your holding is Elsie. And this little one' I said motioning to the baby in my arms 'This is Eden' I told him and he smiled. 

'Elsie Bella and Eden Aaliyah' he said as he smiled at me. 'I like it' 

'Elsie Bella and Eden Aaliyah?' I questioned starting to tear up, and he nodded at me and kissed the side of my head. 'Bella after their grand mother and Aaliyah, well princess I think you know that one' he told me as he looked at the two little girls in our arms with tears in his eyes. 

'They really are beautiful arent they?' I whispered and Fred looked back over at me. 'They get it from their mother' he said and I leaned over to place a small kiss on his lips. 

---------------

Over the next few hours we were visisted by all of our friends. Ginny came first on her own, and as promised we told her the girls names first. 'They are so cute' she gushed quietly as they lay asleep in the small cribs in the hospital wing. 'They really are' Fred told her as he pulled me in closer to his chest. 

Fred had decided to climb into the hospital bed with me and was now sitting behind me and holding me as close as possible. I know he just wanted to feel as close to me as he could for the two days that we had. Today was Thursday and Fred had to be back at St. Mungos by 9am on Saturday morning to finish off his last eight days in rehab. 

George and Lee came just after breakfast and told Fred how the twins looked absolutely nothing like him. Well they did sort of, they had his nose and eyes but they were blonde, much to Freds disappointment, he always wanted to have ginger girls. But I suppose their isnt much that we can do about that now. 

'How the hell could that ugly git manage to have such perfect kids?' George asked as he looked over at the girls, causing Lee and myself to laugh and Fred to scowl at his younger brother. 'Its cause his wife is so good looking' Lee told George who nodded in agreement causing Fred to now scowl at the both of them. 

'Really though you two, congrats' Lee said as I shifted in the bed slightly so Fred could climb out from behind me and walk over to George. 'Hey. We have a question to ask the two of you' he said to the two boys who looked at me in confusion. 'Would you two like to be Elsies God-Parents?' he asked and the two of them nodded as Lee pulled me into a hug and George pulled Fred into a  hug. 'Honestly, we would be honoured' George told us as he smiled down at his two nieces. 

Alicia, Katie, Angelina and Riviera all arrived after classes were done, saying that they needed to buy some presents down in Hogsmead, aparently it would be rude to show up with no gifts. They bought a huge collection of matching clothes, as well as some stuffed animals and story books, notable the Tales of Beedle the Bard. Which was aparently Freds favourite book as a child. 

As the day got on I started to have a few naps as the twins slept. They slept all day really except when they were eating, honestly, they were just the two most perfect babies anyone could ask for.

After dinner Pansy and Blaise came to visit after having been told about the twins being born by George and Lee at dinner. At first Pansy was annoyed that I didnt tell her myself but when both Fred and Blaise pointed out the very obvious fact that I was in a hospital bed all day, she was less annoyed and continued to gush over the twins with me for over half an hour while Blaise and Fred talked about quiddich plays. 

Just before curfew Draco and Astoria showed up with a three small packages. 'Draco Malfoy!' I whisper shouted as I opened the box that Draco handed to me. In the box was a chain for me that had a small tree with the two girls names on it, as well as two amethyst stones as that was the girls birth stone. It was small and dainty but it was so cute and pretty. 

'You didnt have to' Fred whispered as he opened the box that Astoria handed him. In his was two small dog tags that had both of the girls full initials on them, as well as also having to amethyst stones. 

'I did' he said as he looked down at the two of us. 'I think its important that not only the babies get spoiled today but also the parents.' he told us as Fred pulled him into a hug. 'Really Malfoy, thank you' he said as he pulled Astoria into a small hug and Draco made his way over to me. 'Thank you Draco' I said as I hugged him. 'Remember, only the best for you darling' he told me with a small wink. 

I chuckled softly as the four of us stood over the two cribs that contained mine and Freds babies. 'They look just like you' Draco told me and Astoria nodded. 'They have your eyes though' she told Fred who smiled at her. 

'Hey Draco' I called softly after a minute. 'Can I ask you something? You too Tori' I added looking at the younger girl. The two of them looked at me in confusion before I asked, 'How would ye feel about being Edens God-Parents?' I asked and Draco immediatly wrapped me up in a hug. 'Id love it Liyah. Only if your sure' he told me looking at Fred and we nodded. 

'Merlin. Hes going to have that child spoiled rotten' Astoria told me as she pulled me into a hug after hugging Fred as a thank you.
