Two days after Bella's birthday, Charlie, Andromeda, Draco, the Golden Trio, Aquila and Bella are now sitting on a dinner that Narcissa is hosting. Bella was silent while everyone was sharing small jokes and pleasant conversations. Andromeda and Charlie were telling Narcissa how relaxing fishing is. The golden trio, Draco and Aquila were arguing about something that sounds like quesadillas for Bella and she couldn't keep up. She couldn't believe it when the adults joined the conversation of the teens. Even her father knows what they're talking about.

"Seriously Chudley Cannons are the best quidditch team!" Ron argued.

"I disagree, Weasley. Montrose Magpies are the best." Draco calmly retorted.

"Nah. Hollyhead Harpies are the best!" Aquila exclaimed.

"Only because Ginny is starting her training." Hermione said rolling her eyes.

"Well, Luna loves Hollyhead Harpies so I think that's the best team." Charlie said, trying to support his niece.

"I disagree, Charlie. Montrose Magpies are quite skilled." Narcissa said while slicing her steak.

"No, dear sister. Puddlemere United is the best." Andromeda contradicted after swallowing her food.

Their little argument was cut short by a baby's cry. Aquila stood up, excused herself and walked as fast as she could towards the nursery. Narcissa would have her head if she ran.

"Who's baby is that?" Bella asked.

"That's my grandson and Aquila's godson. She loves taking care of him." Andromeda answered Bella with a smile.

"Is that why she rarely sleeps at home?" Bella asked her father which Charlie confirmed with a nod.

It wasn't long until dinner was over but Aquila was still in the nursery. The cry of the baby no longer exists. The golden trio and the Swans went home. Narcissa was about to go to bed when she heard a knock on the door.

"Good evening Mrs. Malfoy. I hope I didn't disturbed you." Edward greeted. He didn't hide the fact that Aquila's family intimidates him, especially Narcissa.

"Edward. Are you here for Aquila?" The Malfoy matriarch asked. She was already used to him coming to visit and helping Aquila with babysitting Teddy.

"Yes, Mrs. Malfoy. May I?" Narcissa smiled at him and let him inside her mansion. She likes how gentleman Edward is. She was a hundred percent sure Edward would never hurt Aquila, partially because she already threatened him.

The sight that greeted Edward melted his heart. Aquila was humming to a sleepy Teddy with a smile on her face. His heart aches seeing her like this. She would be a great mother someday but he couldn't give her children.

These are the moments that would sometimes tempt him to leave her to have a normal life. Maybe if she breaks her heart, she'd someday get over him, find a normal human or wizard that isn't a killer. A person that can give her a normal life where they could grow old together. A man that can give him a family. Edward is a vampire, a soulless monster who is...undead.
