You need a Giver

Chapter 9

"We stand as one, united, against the puritan,"

Tina sang softly to herself as she fed the mooncalfs,

"we draw our inspiration, from good witch Morrigan,"

Tina petted Dove, the new mooncalf pup and continued with her feeding rounds.

"For she was persecuted, by common wandless man, so she fled to distant Ireland, and so our school began."

Tina reached the shed where her boyfriend Newt was sleeping contently at his desk.

Tina smiled at the sight and gently shook him awake. "Newt, c'mon time to get up," Newt sleepily opened his eyes and smiled at her, "good morning Tina," he said, waking up more as she gave him a light peck on his cheek as he sat up.

Dougal walked over and snuggled up to the two of them which made Tina laugh. It had been three months since they had their first kiss and Newt had invited Tina to go traveling the world with him.

They had rescued and set free many creatures, including Newts occamys, which took him a couple days to get over. Only returning to New York in case Tina was needed or to visit Queenie and Jacob (who were now married and expecting a child)

"I thought you were supposed to be doing the paperwork for our next trip?" Tina said teasingly as she ruffled Dougal's hair affectionately, Dougal purred.

Newt smiled sheepishly, "Well I was, until I felt this strange sensation of drowsiness come over me, believe me dear, I really did want to do this mind-numbing paperwork, but...i'm sorry... I failed you!" He said dramatically and leaned back on the chair with his hand on his forehead.

Tina snickered and kissed the top of his head, "well don't worry, we don't need those done until next week." She said pulling him up out of the chair, "C'mon it's mating season and the Erumpet's waiting for you." Tina giggled remembering the first time he had shown her the mating dance.

Newt twirled her around laughing and kissed her sweetly on the lips. The kiss lasted a while until Tina felt something pinch her cheek, "Ow!"

she reeled back to see Pickett the Bowtruckle on Newt's shoulder shaking his fist at her, Newt looked as surprised as she was. "Pickett," Newt said slightly laughing, "What did I tell you? No pinching Tina."

Pickett stuck out his tongue at Tina then clung onto Newt's cheek. Newt laughed slightly, "Jealous," he muttered as Pickett squeaked angrily at him, Tina laughed, "Newt c'mon the Erumpet?" she said gesturing towards the staircase. Newt smiled, "yes yes of course coming,"

Newt and Tina headed over to the Erumpet habitat arm in arm. Tina looked around in awe, even though she had been traveling with him for a few months she couldn't get over the fact on how magical and amazing the inside of Newt's case was. It was like a whole other world.

Newt was staring at Tina looking around with a smile on her face and eyes wide, "Is anything wrong Tina?" he asked, Tina looked at him still smiling, "I guess I can never get over the fact on how magnificent this is, and you did it all on yourself Newt! It could take years for wizards to even accomplish what you have done!" Newt's ears turned red in embarrassment, he wasn't used to the praise.

"It was nothing really, just some protective and transfiguration charms." He said looking around as they passed the Bowtruckle habitat, "I suppose it is pretty marvelous, but the important thing is that the creatures feel safe here."

Dove ran up to the couple and began to rub against Tina's legs, she smiled then bent down, "Well do you feel safe here Dove?" Tina asked the little mooncalf pup, Dove bopped her head up and down and they both laughed.

Once they had arrived at the Erumpet habitat, Bertha, the Erumpet in Newt's case, was jiggling madly around and shooting seductive glances at anything that moved around her.

Tina handed Newt the Erumpet musk which he then put on both his wrists, then walked over to Bertha in confidence. Tina lingered by the entrance to the habitat, eager to see how the events would turn out.

Newt hunched in front of Bertha, and made a loud noise that sounded relatively like a dying crow. Bertha turned around to look at Newt's hunched figure and sniffed in approval. Newt harshly put his left foot in front of him and slowly and seductively began to pull it back in waves. Bertha was interested and began to coo.

Next he pivoted around so that his back was facing Bertha and began to move his butt up and down in a steady beat, Bertha began to shake and step closer to him. They then continued to circle each other making weird groans and grunts, and flipping their heads and shooting seductive glances at each other.

Finally, Newt groaned loudly and fell to the floor, presumed dead by the erumpet who then lost interest after a few minutes as the smell wore off.

Newt got up, dusted off his trousers and headed back to Tina who was staring at him with a slight smirk on her face, "So you do this kind of stuff everyday while she's in season?" Tina said as they walked back to the shed, "Well not everyday," Newt said, "Only once a week per say,"

Tina laughed fondly, "Only you Newt, would do a mating dance with your own Erumpet." As the couple reached the shed a letter was there waiting addressed to the two of them.

"It's from Queenie and Jacob," Tina said picking up the letter quizzically, "I wonder what's going on," she said opening up the envelope as Newt sat down in his desk chair.

Tina read the first sentence then squealed happily, "Tina, what is it?" Newt said looking up at her excited face.

Tina's face radiated joy, "Newt! Queenie had the Baby!"

Dear Teenie and Newt,

We are happy to announce the arrival of Jamie P. Kowalski to our family. We would appreciate it if you could drop by New York to meet your Nephew, I'm sure he will be happy to meet his godparents. Please reply soon, we miss you.

Queenie, Jacob, and Jamie

"Godparents?" Newt said with a small smile on his face, "There's no one better," Tina said looking at him with a small smile on her face. Newt blushed, "Now come on Mr. Scamander we got a boat headed to New York city to catch!"

Tina said grabbing her jacket and pulling him up the staircase and out of the suitcase to New York where they could meet the Kowalski baby.
