Mal
There was no way I could convince Evie not to allow FG to use the spell, but we both knew we were going to forget about the baby. I knew the second we realised she was having a baby we'd both think it was Doug's, even though it was just magic. No one was allowed to tell us about the baby or there could be a risk of a miscarriage or immediate death to the child.
"Mal please come out I want to talk." I heard Evie's soft voice on the other side of the door, I was hiding in a supply closet not far from Dizzy's room and I had locked the door.
"Mal, come on. I just need to talk to you." She started sounding desperate and I finally unlocked the door. She immediately wrapped her arms around me and didn't let go until I hugged her back.
"Mal if you don't want me to do this.. I won't.." she said practically choking on her words.
"Evie, I don't want to be the reason you lose Dizzy." I said and Evie took my hands.
"But I don't want it to be the reason I lose you." She whispered leaning her head against mine. I felt a tear roll down my cheek and kissed Evie, this time was different, there was a silent agreement and this was a goodbye.

Evie
Mal and I walked back to Dizzy's room and I looked at FG.
"I'm ready.." I said nervously and she nodded.
"There will be a feeling of dizziness and then you won't remember anything, but you will believe Dizzy had died.." FG said and I nodded.
"Wait.. will we get our memories back?" I asked and FG nodded.
"The second the child is born, that way you remember what to name her." FG explained an I took Mal's hand, she smiled weakly at me.
"Let's do this." I said and suddenly everything went black for a minute.

I looked around the room then down to Dizzy. FG was there and that could only mean one thing. I began to cry and Mal pulled me into her arms as we slowly sank to the ground. We were there until we were ushered out of the room. Mal took me back to the dorm and I laid down on my bed, not willing to do anything. I suddenly felt violently ill and ran to the bathroom. Mal followed behind quickly.
"Evie are you okay?" She asked and I sat there leaning against the wall, Mal sat next to me and I rested my head on her shoulder.
"I.." Mal started to talk but quickly shut it down and instead kissed me on the cheek.
"I'm here for you.." she whispered after a few minutes of silence.
