•THIRTY SEVEN•

CHRISTMAS HAD BEEN AND GONE, Jasmine and Theo were now eighteen, not that they had much of a celebration. Draco had given Jasmine a necklace that had similarities to her engagement ring, it had an emerald and some small diamonds encrusted, it was beautiful.

Jasmine hadn't owl'd any of her friends, knowing that death eaters would be looking at the mail, and so she decided it wasn't safe for her to write. Jasmine so wanted to tell Hannah that she was pregnant, and tell her everything she'd seen and that all she wanted was a hug from her best friend, although she wasn't sure she'd even get a response at this point.

The people they had seen however were Blaise and Daphne. She, Theo and Draco had snuck out of Malfoy Manor for a few hours and to the Greengrass mansion where they owl'd Blaise to come and meet them there. They had not told them that Jasmine was pregnant, knowing that their thoughts wouldn't be safe from the Dark Lord, and so Jasmine hid her tiny bump.

Bellatrix had been giving the three occlumency lessons, and Jasmine had caught on very quickly and was able to shield her mind from people who were trying to get in. Draco and Theo had also caught on, but not as quickly as Jasmine. Jasmine could still remember the pride on Draco and Theo's faces when she successfully managed to block Bellatrix out of her mind. It felt good.

Jasmine was now showing, not much, but you could definitely tell she was pregnant, she was a petite girl and so this made the bump look more prominent. She almost always had a hand on her tiny bump.

Voldemort had been using Malfoy Manor as a place to hold prisoners, Griphook, a goblin from Gringotts was in the dungeons as well as Ollivander. Jasmine had no idea what they were needed for, and she almost didn't want to know.

She was worried that he would pay them a visit and she would have to tell him that she was pregnant. She didn't know what he'd do, but she guessed she was lucky that he hadn't marked her. Narcissa hadn't been marked either and that made her feel slightly at ease.

Narcissa was constantly trying to feed Jasmine, insisting that she needed to keep her strength up for the baby. She wasn't wrong, but Jasmine had never been one to eat extortionate amounts.

Draco and Jasmine were lying on their bed, Loki sat on Jasmine's legs with her head resting on Jasmine's little bump, almost as if she knew.

Draco's hand was also resting on the bump, "I think it's a boy" Draco said proudly, Jasmine laughed, "Maybe it's a girl" Jasmine shrugged her shoulders in response.

"Maybe, I just have a feeling" Draco said, grinning up at the girl. "what shall we name it?" Jasmine asked, watching as Draco's big hand rubbed circles on her bump.

"I like the name Luca, for a boy"Draco confessed, Jasmine smiling at the name. "I like that too" Draco leant up and pressed a chaste kiss on her lips.

"What about for a girl?" Draco asked her and she shrugged, "I quite like the name Aurelie" Jasmine said, placing her hand on top of Draco's. Her wedding and engagement ring visible.

"Thats very pretty" Draco nodded. Jasmine lived for days like this. Where they could just chill out and the thoughts of what was going on in the outside world didn't matter. Because in their bedroom, it was just the two of them and nothing else mattered.

Draco leant up and pulled her into kiss him, her hand moving to cup his cheek, whilst his hand stayed on her stomach.

The two were interrupted when someone knocked on the bedroom door. Jasmine sighed as Draco pulled away from her, Draco simply groaning in response.

"Come in" Draco shouted to whoever it was, the door opened, revealing Theo.

"hey" Jasmine said, giving her brother a small smile as she sat up.

"hey, they've captured someone Jas. Someone you know" Theo told her, Jasmines eyes widened in fear, thinking it might be Hannah.

"Is it Hannah?" Jasmine rushed to ask, standing up.

"No-no, its Luna Lovegood" Theo said and whilst she was relieved it wasn't Hannah, she was still upset to find out a kind girl had been captured.

Jasmine and Luna weren't all that close, but they helped each other with homework when needed and such. Luna had always been kind to Jasmine, so for whatever reason she was here for, she knew that Luna wasn't deserving of it.

"why?" Jasmine asked and Theo shrugged, "Her father was writing stuff that agreed with Harry Potter, she's being used as leverage." Theo said, giving Jasmine a sad look.

"Can I see her?" Jasmine asked, turning to look at Draco and then back to her brother.

"I don't know if that's a good idea" Theo said and Jasmine frowned.

"She's here because of what her father did. The least we could do is show her a friendly face." Jasmine said, raising her voice a little.

"If He finds out, Jas" Theo tried to reason with the girl, "He won't, we'll keep watch." Draco said and Theo sighed, nodding.

The three walked through the manor, trying to keep away from watchful eyes. They made a quick stop at the kitchen to get Luna some food, knowing she might be hungry.

Jasmine felt relief as they got down to the dungeons, magic couldn't be used inside the cells, which meant that whoever was in the cell didn't need to be watched.

The dungeons were cold, damp and dark, not somewhere anyone would want to be.

Jasmine walked to the cell door, and called for Luna, "Luna, Luna where are you?" Jasmine asked, taking her wand out and casting lumos. "Jasmine?" She heard Luna's voice get closer to the cell door.

"yes! it's me! I have food for you" Jasmine said, passing her bread and fruit through the iron bars.

"Thank you" Luna said, taking the food from her.

"What are you doing here?" Luna asked, drinking some water.

"I kind of live here" Jasmine said and Luna's eyes widened at the sight of Jasmines small but swollen belly.

"You're pregnant? Oh my Jasmine" Luna said, Jasmine almost laughed. she was a prisoner in her friends house and she was still happily conversing with her.

Jasmine nodded in response, "yes I am"

"Are you okay?" Jasmine asked, the girl had a black eye and a split lip.

"Oh I'm fine" Luna shrugged, she didn't seem to phased by where she was.

"I'm so sorry that you're here. I can't get you out though, we'd both die" Jasmine told here sincerely. Luna nodded, "I would never expect you too. You're in love with Draco Malfoy, you couldn't go against his family" Luna said, giving her a sad smile.

"I'm sorry" Jasmine said, holding her hand through the metal bars.

"Thats okay, this isn't forever, I'll be back at Hogwarts soon enough" Luna smiled, causing Jasmine's lips to break into a smile.

"Jas? We've got to go" Theo whispered to his sister, who nodded.

"I'm sorry, I've got to go. Stay strong, Luna" Jasmine told her, giving her hand a squeeze before letting go.

"You too, Jasmine" She smiled, her Irish accent thick but so incredibly soft at the same time.

Jasmine turned around and walked back towards her brother and Draco. Draco wrapped an arm around her shoulder, giving it a squeeze.

"this is so shit" Jasmine moaned and Draco nodded, "yeah, yeah it is" he mumbled, pulling Jasmine back to their bedroom.

Jasmine just hoped that the rest of her friends were safe and that Snape wasn't making life hard for them at Hogwarts, if they even went back.
