The Potter Siblings : Love Changes

The First Shock

LP POV

"I love you so much." Cedric said as we pulled apart thoroughly worn out. I blushed and kissed him fully on the lips. "I love you too." I tried to find my clothes in the darkness with no luck. "No luck?" Cedric asked, smirking. I shook my head, annoyed. "Well, get inside the blanket while I look for those." He said. I nodded and did the same . "I enjoy being inside you so much babe." Cedric muttered as he handed me back my night gown and I wore it as fast as possible. "Good night my love." Cedric murmured as we closed our eyes, hugging each other.

"Time to get up Jakey."I giggled as I woke my son. "Hi momma, hi daddy. Did you have a nice night?" Jacob asked innocently. I smiled at my son's innocence and nodded my head. By that time, Cedric had worn his clothes and was ready to go down. We waited as Jacob got ready and then the three of us went downstairs. Cedric had to go and sit beside the professors. "So how's everything?" Ginny asked with a knowing smile. I blushed and said, "Great" Thankfully breakfast started and I gobbled up fast and headed straight for the library to do some light reading before class started. The classes of the first half were quite a bore. They passed quickly. It was late when I got Jacob from the head's common room and went down for lunch. Cedric was nowhere to be found. Where is Cedric?" I exasperatedly wondered aloud. My friends shrugged and signed that they knew nothing. I let out a big sigh. "Mommy, perhaps daddy is in our joint room? "Jacob suggested. I nodded and headed fast for our room. But what would he be doing there? I thought as I opened the door. To my utmost horror, Cedric was sitting on the loveseat with tears in his eyes holding a knife. I shrieked with alarm and snatched the knife out of his hands. "Are you crazy? What the hell were you doing?" I yelled at him as Jacob sat beside his father. He looked at me with red eyes. "Answer Cedric please......" I pleaded. "I failed to keep my promise." He said morosely. "What is wrong daddy?" Jacob asked. "Everything is wrong. We are forced to go to Albania on job purposes. I cannot stay with here." Cedric answered. "By we you mean??" I asked surprised. "By we, I mean my parents and I. I also need to take Jacob." Cedric said as he looked down. "What about me?" "I cannot take you Liz. Its not safe for you. I need to take Jacob though cause he is required in the job we gotta do. A child is required. Even my mother cannot go." Cedric said. "But what will happen to me?" I asked tensed. "I can only return after 4 years. In the meantime, don't forget me? You can date someone else if you like? I have to go Lizzy or I will be sent to Azkaban and I won't get to see you ever again. It is because of my father's promise to do a really difficult job years ago. I got the news just now and got the urge of attempting suicide" Ced told me tearfully. "Ced, you have to go in that case and Jacob too. Keep in touch. I love you. Just don't forget me." I said trying to keep my voice from trembling. "I can never forget you. After I return, we will settle down together. I will get divorce from Rachael and we'll live happily ever after." Cedric held me tight. An owl hooted and Cedric stood up and said, "We need to leave. I love you." We kissed. Then I turned to my son whom I would not be seeing for ages. "Be a good boy. I love you." I said, hugging him. "I love you too momma. I'll call you everyday and I will be the best boy in the world. "Jacob told me. I grinned at my son before kissing his cheek. The two of them went downstairs and held their hands to apparate with Uncle Amos and a ministry official. I waved my hand till I could see them no more.

People recover from their shock even when it seems impossible. Even that happened to me. I do not know how many hours I spent, crying or how many times my friends had to drag me out of the washroom. All I knew was that I had received a tremendous shock and lost everything . Weeks passed, but the hole in my heart remained as it was. No one could fill it properly. During the weeks of my mourning, Draco was my constant support. he was the one who comforted me at nights. It seemed to me Draco was a gift from Gods as well. Slowly the hole became a little hidden behind other stuff, but remained there to remind me he existed in a world where I did. The phone calls from them helped me a lot. But after some time they came no more as the place where my family had gone was a desolate place with no network connection. It was after a long time, I finally took interest in other things.
