Layla POV 2am

I've been feeling sick ever since we came back from St Mungos now Im getting stomach cramps as well that are making me want to break down and cry. I looked at the clock,
02:00 am. I opened my eyes and saw there was still a house elf keeping an eye on me.

I then realised Draco wasn't with me.

He's probably in his bed, should I go to him?
AAH fuck that hurts.
Yeah I'm going.

I got out of bed but not before getting questioned by Sid the elf.
"Miss Layla is there anything you need?" he squeaked following me out of my room.
"No thank you Sid. I'm okay you may rest now your services will not be needed again tonight" I dismisses the elf and opened the door to Draco's room quietly.

I shut the door behind me and crept over to his bed trying not to wake him up I got into bed but of course Draco wakes up from any movement.

"Darling? Is that you? Are you okay my love?" he said sleepily rolling over to face me I brushed the hair from his face.
"It's me, my stomach hurts I couldn't sleep..." I held onto my stomach trying to ease the pain.
"It'll be that potion, come her darling" he pulled me into a hug and wrapped his arm over me then snaking a hand up my T-shirt.
"Draco" I looked at him.
"Mmm?" he hummed rubbing my stomach gently.
"I love you"
"Trust me when I say I love you more" he chuckled into the back of my neck. I nuzzled my head into the pillow and got comfy Draco was already drifting off because his hand stopped moving and his breathing is deep.

Draco's pov 4am

I was peacefully asleep with Layla when a feeling of extreme happiness and joy filled the room.

What the fuck..
Strange.. The Manor house is always dull and miserable lately.

That's when a blue light in the form of a jungle cat pranced into the room. A patronus. Blaize.

He's the only person other then St Pot head I know that can do a full body patronus It started speaking as if conveying a message.

"Draco I know your at the Manor right now but I need to tell you that the girl you cursed touched the object and was cursed instead best get back to Hogwarts ASAP it looks suspicious" Blaizes voice projected from the withering glow.
"Shit" I cursed under my breath getting out of bed gently as to not wake up Layla I went across the hall to her bedroom and pulled the trunk from under her bed packing our stuff into it using a spell.

I pulled it back into my room we were going to use the floo network risky but easier then apparating.
Getting our traveling cloaks from the cupboard I went back to my bedroom and attempted to gently wake Layla up. Not that it worked the girl sleeps like a log.

"Darling.. Come on wake up.. Something has happened at school" I shook her shoulders. Nothing.
Then she started to stir and clutched her stomach in a groan of pain I pulled her up into my lap.
"Layla wake up" she snuggled into my chest taking a deep breath. So i decide to do the only thing I knew could work.

"Muffliato..... AURORA HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED" I shouted as Layla jumped up snatching her wand from the night stand ready to fight.
I sat and chuckled at the response.
"Blaize just sent me a patronus we need to go back to Hogwarts now my plan hasn't worked" I muttered slightly disappointed and ashamed of myself.

Layla cupped her hands under my face to make me look at her.
"Don't loose hope we will figure it out together" she reassured or at last tried to then placing a kiss on my nose.
"Come on we are using the floo system we need to go quickly" I clipped her cloak over her shoulders.
"Draco, the floo network into Hogwarts is off limits at the moment.. remember" she reminded me as I pulled on some shoes.
