Patricia:

As we arrive at Hogwarts Minerva, Albus and I make ourselves comfortable in Albus's and my living room. Albus ordered us some tea for me and Minerva, and a hot chocolate for himself. I am still frustrated that the insemination didn't work. Looks like I am not cut out to be a mother after all. But I hate to see Albus so defeated, he really wants a child of his own. And because of me, his dream will never come true. Then this idea comes into my head, but I feel a bit nervous to ask the two of them to do it because it IS something very personal. But I know as a fact that Minerva is in love with Albus and I know that he returns her feelings. I love Albus but I know that he can never love me the way he loves Minerva. Our marriage was an arranged one. Our families want to connect the family trees. I am just lucky to be able to call myself his wife.

I clear my throat and am ready to ask them both the question.

"What if- what if you two conceive naturally?"

Both Albus and Minerva turn their head sharply in my direction. "WHAT?!" They both say in unison.

I held my hands up to calm them down

"Before you two say something, please hear me out." I pause and then continue

"We can arrange this together. You don't have to undress completely to be able to get intimate, you know." At this point, I can see both of them blushing like mad.
"I mean, this is the best solution for us."

"But Patricia, this child will be biologically Minerva's and not yours. And is it not a bit too much to ask for Minerva to have sex with me?"

"No" Albus and I turn our heads to Minerva in surprise.

"Tabby, you don't have to do this for us," Albus says carefully.

"I know I don't have to. But if it means to give you and Patricia, what you two always dream for then I am willing to do that. But what about you, Albus? Do you want to do this?"

I watch Albus closely and wait patiently for his answer, knowing deep down that he wants to do this too.

As we arranged everything, we agreed that I will be visiting my parents for a couple of days for them to do this task together. Even though I feel jealousy in me that my husband has to sleep with someone else to have a child who will carry on our family name. But I know that this was the best solution.

Of course, we agreed to set some rules together. We agreed with each other, that they won't see each other's body parts, no kissing, no foreplay, and after they're done Albus will return to our room.
