Tantum

Chapter 6

Harry and Tom bathed in the afterglow of the proposal for a week, they spent all of their time in each others company and Harry had never felt so loved in his life. Their baby also seemed to be sharing their happiness because she was kicking a lot more and Tom seemed to find it amazing each time it happened. Harry had written to all of his friends telling them the good news, he sent them off with Hedwig as well as to Narcissa and inviting her to tea. The whether in England was starting to warm up again as they went deeper in to February, Harry was hoping that it would be warm enough to sit in the gardens but it was not to be, he would have the back sun room set up instead so he could look out on to the grounds. He was also going to have a check up too, he wanted to make sure everything was fine now that the baby was moving. He smiled as Tom swept in to the room, he was going to be staying while Harry had his check up and then he was going to be dealing with the Death Eaters. Harry, as a rule, no longer had anything to do with the war whatsoever, something that Tom, 100%, agreed with.

"Hey," Harry greeted softly,

"How are you feeling?" Tom asked him,

"I'm ok, just a little tired. Baby likes to kick in the middle of the night."

"Rest after your tea with Narcissa," Tom suggested, "I am going to be busy for the rest of the afternoon."

"I will,"

They didn't have to wait long until Narcissa floo'd in and she smiled warmly at the pair,

"Congratulations." She said and Harry blinked, before he remembered his new ring and a beaming smile came to his face.

"Thank you!"

"It is a lovely ring,"

"Isn't it?"

"You two can discuss the wedding later, right now you are having a check up." Tom interrupted amused, Harry pouted.

"Fine,"

"Now, what seems the problem?"

"The baby started moving." Harry told her and her eyes lit up.

"Wonderful," Narcissa waved her wand and smiled, "She is developing well,"

"That's good," Harry said relieved, "What about me?"

"You are slightly anaemic, so I will up your dosage on the potions, otherwise you are healthy."

"Ok, I hope baby stops kicking in the night though."

"She is merely finding a comfortable position."

"Are you sure everything is in order?" Tom asked and Narcissa nodded,

"Everything is perfectly fine, My Lord."

"Good. I shall leave you to yourselves." Tom said, he kissed Harry briefly and left the room.

"Tell me all about it." Narcissa demanded, Harry smiled brightly,

"It was so romantic." Harry sighed, "He took me to The Waterside Perch somewhere in the Caribbean, we had dinner and then he proposed as the sun set."

"Oh that's so sweet." She gushed,

"And then, baby moved for the first time!" Harry exclaimed and Narcissa grinned,

"The perfect timing." She said, "Was there a speech? I know Lucius conveniently forgot, but he made up for it within our vows."

"It was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard, and there I was a complete mess because he made me cry." Harry said, "The Dark Lord is a secret romantic,"

"He has a certain way with words." Narcissa mused and Harry grinned,

"Something like that," Harry agreed, "So how have you been?"
