Chapter 20

Rosemary was sitting in the library trying to avoid Fidelia and her croonies. They had gone one step further than just being bitches. They had started there own gossip paper. They found out secrets about other students then writting them and giving them out to every student. From eatting disorders to cheating on exams to a student teacher relationship was making their ways into their papers. Since Kaleb and her had slept together she was finding excuses to stay away from Kaleb being around him made her confused and aroused as all hell.

Kaleb stepped into the library, keeping to the walls so he wouldn't be seen. He knew Rosemary had been avoiding him and it was killing him. He was determined to find out if he could salvage their friendship from his drunken advances. Rosemary writes out her homework sighing and pushing a strand of hair behind her ear. She was feeling slightly off and Phoebus was saying that she was snapping at people a lot more. Kaleb finally found her, sitting at a table against a wall and between two bookshelves. The Slytherin side of him grinned evilly even as he worried that having her cornered might make her angry.

"Rosie." He said flatly, by way of greeting,.

Rosemary turns fast as she looks at him in surprise.

"How did... you find me?" Kaleb shrugged.

"I know you. I've been...trying to talk to you for a while now." He said quietly, unable to hide the hurt in his voice.

Not from her. Rosemary turned away slightly. She felt bad about avoiding him but it was uncomfortabel to be aorund him after having amazing sex with him.

"Im sorry Kaleb..." Rosemary turned away slightly. She felt bad about avoiding him but it was uncomfortabel to be aorund him after having amazing sex with him. "Im so sorry Kaleb..." Kaleb blinked, swallowing hard.

He dropped into one of the empty chairs tucked next to the table Rosemary was using. He leaned forward, his elbows on his knees and ran a hand over the back of his neck.

"So...that's just..it, then? I don't even...even get a chance?" He asked, very quietly, trying to hide the pain squeezing his chest.

Rosemary bites her lip and looked away from him.

"Kaleb... you and i have been friends since we were babies... my father even told me that i was suppoused to marry you some day... but... im not..." She rests her hand on her forehead.

"Im not someone you should be tied to... your too good for that you deserve someone who isnt always getting images of the past..." Kaleb growled.

"Say you don't want me and be done with it, but never say you aren't good enough." he snarled angry both at her for her self-deprecation, and on her behalf.

Rosemary looks at him as she whimpered slightly.

"Thats... just it... i do want you... everytime im around you my body betrays my mind and wants you... but..." Kaleb shivered, color rising to his cheeks even as his heart sank.

"But...?"

"Im not the person for you Kaleb..." Rosemary's eyes start to water as she starts to cry uncontrolably.

Kaleb, unable to just sit and watch her cry, gathers Rosemary into his arms.

"If not you, Rosie, then no one." he says softly into her hair. Rosemary wraps her arms around him tight as she cries hard. She couldnt stop she had never been this weepy before. Kaleb simply holds her, rocking slowly, until she cries herself out. Rosemary slowly whimpers as she sniffs. She took a few deep breathes as she had the sudden urge to throw up her breakfast. She got up fast and went to the waste basket retching hard. Kaleb was surprised enough not to say anything, merely going to Rosie and pulling her hair back carefully, rubbing circles on her back. Rosemary cries hard as she continues to retch til she slowly stopped. A few stray coughs later she wipes her mouth sitting back slightly. Kaleb takes her chin in one hand, tapping her lips with his wand and casting a quick Evanesco. All traces of her morning ordeal disappear, including the dried tears on her cheeks. "Feeling better?" he asked solicitously.

Rosemary whimpers.

"Kinda... whats wrong with me Kaleb... nothing is feeling right... none of my clothes are comfortable my shoes are starting to feel tight and food makes me sick and i cant keep much down. Now this..." Kaleb frowns.

"Have you seen the Healer?" he asks, his mind going over her symptoms already to see if there's a potion he can think of to help.

Rosemary shakes her head.

"I didnt.... have time..." He nods succinctly.

"We're going now. Sit down while I gather your things." He releases her carefully to a chair while he begins piling up the papers and books on the table.

Rosemary looks at him.

"What... is wrong with me?" Kaleb shakes his head.

"I can't say. I don't know enough about your symptoms and at this point it could be any number of things." he said distractedly as he shut her bag and swung it over his shoulder with his own.

He held out his hand to her.

"Can you walk alright? You haven't been dizzy or weak, have you?" Rosemary slowly stood up looking at him.

"I can walk." He nods, taking her hand and leading her to the Hospital wing.

Inside, Jacob glances out of his office at the sound of the door opening.

"I'll be out in just a moment if the sick half of you would take a seat on one of the beds for me." he said with a grin before dissapearing for another moment.

Kaleb frowns, but leads Rosemary to one of the perfectly made hospital beds. Rosemary sits down sighing heavily.

"Kaleb... im sorry about how i have been acting..." Kaleb shakes his head.

"Forgotten so long as you no longer do." He responds quietly.

Rosemary looks at him then leans into him.

"I do like you... alot..." The hardness in Kaleb's eyes softens momentarily and he opens his mouth to respond, but snaps it shut again when Jacob steps from his office, humming contentedly.

The young Healer comes up beside the pair, glancing between them.

"How can I help you two today?" Rosemary describes everything that she has been feeling as she clutched onto Kaleb's hand.

"What's wrong with me?" Jacob nods, pulling out a muggle pencil and clipboard and making notes on it.

"Alright. Have you vomited at all before this morning's episode?" Rosemary shakes her head.

"Today was the first time." Jacob makes a small notation on the clipboard and hands Rosemary a paper from the back of it.

"Here. I want you to write down anything you've eaten that you don't normally from the past three days and any magic that's been performed on you in that same time period." He pauses to write something else down, then continues.

"I'll also need to know if you're sexually active, on any form of medication including birth control or are taking any recreational drugs. Write that all down for me, then come knock on my door." he said swiftly, giving the two of them a quick nod before returning to his office.

Rosemary looks over at him fast when he says birth control. Oh god... could she be... She writes on the clipboard everything needed before looking at Kaleb.

"Do you think... im pregnant...?" Kaleb blinks, his throat tightening.

"I...we didn't..." He slowly sinks down to sit beside her on the bed. "Oh god..." He certainly hoped not.

He'd always imagined any child of his would be planned. Or at least looked forward to. And born or adopted within a happy relationship. Could she be? On her first time? Rosemary bites her lip as she stand up walking over to his office knocking the door. Jacob opens it with a smile.

"All done then?" he asks, taking the paper and clipping it to his board as he comes out.

Rosemary goes back over and sits next to Kaleb holding his hand tight.

"Well...?" Jacob begins marking the list, scratching off several things and noting others.

"When was the last time you had sex with a male?" he asked, frowning down at the list.

"A couple months ago... with Kaleb..." Rosemary held his hand tighter.

Jacob's mouth tightened and he sighed, setting the clipboard aside.

"Okay, I need you to lie back and stay as still as possible for me, hm?" he asked, shooing Kaleb away as he pulled the curtain.

"I'll also need you to pull your shirt up, just to the top of your ribs, and your skirt down to your lower hips." Kaleb stepped reluctantly back, biting his lip as he heard Jacob's orders to Rosemary.

He tried to tell himself there was just no way she could be pregnant. Not after just one time. Rosemary nods slowly pulling her shirt up and lowers her skirt slightly. She prayed they were both wrong. Jacob incanted a complicated spell and a cold tingle swept over Rosemary's middle, seeming to soak into her skin and the organs beneath it. After a moment, it evaporated and the tip of Jacob's wand glowed a bright clear yellow. He sighed.

"I'm afraid, Miss, that you are in fact in your second month of pregnancy. Sixty-eighth day, to be precise." Rosemary looks at him in shock sitting up.

"Me... pregnant..." she starts to shake. "Kaleb..." she whimpered to him.

Kaleb went around the curtain, only to have Jacob push him back.

"You've seen quite enough of our girl here, you can wait until she's decent again." he glances back to Rosemary.

"Fix your clothing, then you may see me in my office about how this should be handled." He led Kaleb to a chair just outside his office before going inside and seating himself at his desk.

Rosemary quickly fixed herself and walked over to Kaleb. She wrapped her arms aorund him tight whimpering. Kaleb holds her to him.

"It was me, wasn't it. There wasn't anyone else." Rosemary nods.

"Your the only man ive slept with." Kaleb nods too.

"I didn't mean..." Suddenly the hugeness of what he did hits him in the stomach.

Rosemary will live with his mistake for the rest of her life. And though he's certain she'll love any child she bears, he knows her life can only be harder with such an early addition.

"Y...God, your dad's gonna kill me." he said, slipping into slang picked up from his dad. Rosemary sighs and hugs him tight. "Dont worry... ill deal with daddy. Im just scared of what your daddy and papa will say." Kaleb feels a shiver run down his spine.

"I doubt they'll fault you. I'm the one who...well." Rosemary hugs him.

"I am just as responsible as you are. I should have told you to use a spell..." Jacob glances up from his desk.

"Why don't the two of you come in here and we'll discuss your options." Rosemary slowly walks into his office before sitting down.

Rosemary slowly walks into his office before sitting down. Kaleb follows sedately. Once the two of them are seated, Jacob stands, coming to the front of his desk and leaning on it, arms crossed over his chest.

"First thing's first. Do you think you'll keep it?" He asked in his no-nonsense way. "You needn't answer immediately or even today, but it's a question that very much needs an answer." Kaleb's first response was to vehemently protest any sort of abortion, but he bit his toung halfway through the first word, realizing it should likely be Rosemary's choice, given she would be the one who would have to carry the baby.

He knew, if she terminated it, this whole debacle could practically disappear, but... Rosemary looks up at Jacob.

"I... i know that my parents would be angrier if i got rid of this child. I... i...." she looks at KAleb. "If you want... i want to keep it..." Jacob nodded.

"Even if you carry the baby to term, you can still adopt it out if you're not ready to be a parent. There are plenty of couples out there without the means to have their own child." He said, determined to make sure Rosemary was certain she wanted this.

It was a very big decision for a girl her age. Rosemary bites her lip. A memory popped it into her head. She had touched their old cribs and had seen a scene when their mom and dad had met when her mom talked about how she hadnt been able to have children til she met her dad.

"Alright..." Jacob watched Rosemary for a moment before continuing.

"Alright. So you think you want to have the baby. Whether or not you keep it can wait. Are you going to tell your parents?" Rosemary slowly nods.

"Im just scared of their reactions." The Healer waved this away.

"I'm sure they won't be thrilled with how it came about-" he glanced pointedly at Kaleb, who had the grace to blush- "but I think, in the end, they love you enough that that will pass." Rosemary glares at Jacob.

"It wasnt Kaleb's fault this happened. We both were stupid now if your done preatching we will be leaving." she could now understand why she was snapping at everyone.

"You will stay seated." He said mildly. "I am not preaching, merely making certain you know what's ahead of you. And I don't believe it's all Kaleb's fault the two of you are in this situation. I was making a point that I highly doubt your parents will be happy to learn you've become active while still in school. Preaching is not my place nor my pleasure, young lady." Rosemary glares at him as she sits back. She didnt like being this angry. Kaleb sank into his seat, feeling miserable. "Now." Jacob said in a soothing voice. "Take a deep breath and let it out slowly. Your hormones are going a mile-a-minute right now and making your nerves edgy, but it's easy to calm them if you try." Rosemary takes a few deep breathes before sighing deeply.

"Sorry..." The Healer waves the comment away, moving to a bookshelf at the back of the room.

He pulls a fairly out-of-place paperback from one of it's shelves.

"Here." He says, holding the book out to her. On it is a woman holding a tiny red-cheeked baby. "The cover's kitsch, and it's a muggle book, but it's the best one I've found to tell you what's happening and will happen to your body. It's called What to Expect When You're Expecting." Rosemary takes the book looking at it.

"Thank you." Jacob nods, digging into his filing cabinet and pulling out a paper.

He squints at it a moment before smiling, as though surprised to actually find what he wanted on the first try.

"Here you are. This is a list of foods you should eat more of, slow down on, or stop eating altogether. You're aware, of course, that drinking alcohol, smoking, and charmships are highly dangerous for the baby." Rosemary nods.

"Thank you." She looks over it.

Jacob nods.

"If you'll come by tomorrow morning, I'll have a Healer and Herbalist from St. Mungos here to give the go-ahead on some prenatal vitamins and anything else you may need. You may go now." Kaleb leaps up, his eyes darting to the door before he stops himself and reaches for Rosemary's hand.

He wants out of this office and away from the most embarrassing conversation he's ever had to listen to. He wants to talk to his Rosie alone. Rosemary follows him as she holds his hand. Kaleb leads Rosemary away from the hospital wing before pausing as though lost. He can't seem to think of anything to say and stares at his shoes. Rosemary looks at him.

"Kaleb... what is it?" Kaleb shakes his head.

"I just realized...if...if you didn't want me around....I'd have no way making you let me stay. Fathers don't have many rights comparitively. Not in things like this." Rosemary looks at him in shock as she suddenly feels like her stomach hit the floor.

"Do you... not want to be around?"

"I..." Kaleb scrunches up his nose a bit, thinking of a delicate way to put it.

"I want to take care of my obligations." Rosemary bites her lip and goes to say something before a voice comes out from behidn them.

"What obligations?" Selish stands there smirking.

Kaleb pales and snaps his mouth shut. Rosemary glares.

"None of your business Selish." Selish grins.

"Oh but i think it does if it involves my chocolate knight. Besides why would he want to be with an alabastor bitch like you over a caramel goddess like me?" Kaleb quickly dons his 'you-are-unworthy-of-my-presence' face.

"I find I prefer the softness and warmth of my Rosie's red heart to the cold stone in your breast." Selish grins and presses herself to Kaleb.

"If you want my breasts so much then you may touch them all you like." Rosemary growls and grabs Selish's weave and throws her to the ground.

"You keep your filthy hands off him before i kill you!" A flush crosses Kaleb's face at the sight of Rosie's magnificent temper.

Nonetheless, he sneers down at Selish.

"Wit, it seems, is lost on the witless." He states redundantly.

"Touch me again and I will not be held responsible for your injuries." Selish glares at Rosemary as she stands up.

"You will pay for this Rosemary!" Selish turns walking off as Rosemary glares and goes to follow her.

Kaleb sneers.

"Divvy bitch." Rosemary takes his hand and leads him to the Gryfindoor dorms.

Phoebus was on his bed looking through some books.

"Hey Rosie whats wrong?" Kaleb swallows an automatic snarl.

Dealing with the likes of Selish put him in a foul mood no matter what the subject matter.. Rosemary bites her lip then walks over and whispers into Phoebus's ear making him gasps.

"Your preggy?!" Rosemary shhhes him fast.

"Not so loud!" Kaleb shifts from foot to foot, wondering if Phoebus will be angry with him.

He's disappointed in himself for not remembering to perform some kind of protection that night, but he can't help feeling rather light at the idea of a child with Rosemary, now that he's had a little time to think about it. Phoebus looks at Kaleb then gets up walking over.

"Did you force Rosie?" His face may be pretty but he was still tough as a guy.

Kaleb's eyes widen before he growls threateningly.

"How the fuck could you even think that?!" he asks, hurt by the accusation.

Phoebus looks at him as Rosemary moves between them.

"Phoebe he didnt force me... i wanted it your showing your maleness..." Phoebus backed off still holding Kaleb's gaze.

"Dont hurt her Kaleb." Kaleb's hands shake and he clenches them tightly.

Phoebus was his best friend- how could he even suggest he would ever hurt Rosie?

"I would never." He ground out between gritted teeth.

Phoebus looked at him.

"Hydra will want to know too. I'll go get him." he looked at him as he walked out of the dorm.

Rosemary turned to Kaleb.

"He doesnt mean he doesnt trust you hes just... overprotective..."

"But he knows how I f-...that I wouldn't hurt you. Not for anything." Kaleb said quietly, forcing his muscles to relax and taking a deep, calming breath.

Rosemary wraps her arms around him.

"It's hard for him to see otherwise." Kaleb nods, distracted by Rosemary's closeness.

His arms come up automatically to her waist and he raises a brow to her.

"Is it." Rosemary looks up at him.

"Do you... you like me Kaleb?" Her cheeks were a soft pink from his closeness.

His brow rises impossibly further.

"I rather think the answer to that is obvious, considering..." he slid his palm lightly over her belly. "...this." Rosemary shudders at his warm hand on her belly.

"I thought... it was the booze..." Kaleb snorts.

"Of course it was. I'd never have had the courage otherwise. I, my dear, am no foolhardy Gryffindor." Rosemary giggles and leans up kissing his lips softly.

She had missed his touch. Kaleb basked in her attention, his eyes slipping shut as he pulled her closer to him. This, he was certain, was what they meant when romantics spoke of being lost in someone's arms. Rosemary purred slowly pulling back.

"We... shouldn't be doing this... if we continue to..." Kaleb didn't open his eyes, his lips bare millimeters from Rosemary's.

"To...?" he purred.

Rosemary shuddered.

"... kiss we may not... stop..." she let out a slight whimper.

"A chance..." he said slowly, "I am willing to take." Kaleb pressed his lips to Rosemary's, feeling the electric jolt of pleasure down to his bones.

Rosemary moans deeply slipping her fingers over his throat. God he smelled so good. She gently nippled at his lip. Kaleb gasped as a shudder ran through him at the feel of those sharp little teeth. God, how did she know just how to turn him on?

"Rosie..." he murmured, his fingers moving up over her cheek to tangle in her hair.

Rosemary looks at him then slowly pushes him to the bed.

"Yes... Kaleb...?" Kaleb opens his mouth to speak, but can't think of a single word.

He slowly shakes his head and pulls Rosemary in for another kiss, this one much deeper as he slips his tongue easily past her pliant lips. Rosemary opens her mouth letting his tongue in before they fall back onto the bed with Rosemary on top. She straddles his waist as she runs her hands over his sides. Kaleb shivers and arches against her, one arm going around her hips to press their bodies together. Rosemary moans as she slips her hands under his shirt. The door opens as Phoebus and Hydra step in. Phoebus gasps loudly.

"Rosie!" Kaleb drops his head to the bead with a defeated groan.

Rosemary turns and blushes brightly as she goes to crawl off Kaleb.

"No Rosie stay... it's actually nice to see you affectionate with a guy like Kaleb." Kaleb mock-glares at the pair of them.

"Then go find a peephole so we can pick up where we left off." Rosemary blushes brightly and looks down at Kaleb.

Hydra crosses his arms, raising a brow.

"What makes you think I am included in his prurient voyuerism?" he asks archly.

Kaleb rolls his eyes and doesn't answer. Phoebus looks at him.

"Come on Hydra we can go and have our own fun." Phoebus stands on his toes and whispers into his ear.

"I'll even take you..." Rosemary looks down at Kaleb then leans down kissing his neck slightly to see his reaction.

Hydra grins wickedly, then turns to press Phoebus to the door playfully.

"Oh, I don't know. Perhaps we should stay for the show. Maybe even give one of our own." He nips Phoebus' bottom lip, grinning.

Kaleb gasps under Rosemary, deaf and blind to everything else. Phoebus giggles and runs his hands over Hydra's sides.

"Lets go." he grabs Hydra's hand and drags him off as Rosemary kisses Kaleb's lips deeply.

Kaleb responds eagerly to her kiss, wrapping his arms around her and slipping his hand just under her shirt, feeling the warm smoothness of her back. Rosemary purrs deeply and grinds into him before stopiing fast.

"Wait... will... doing this hurt the baby?" Kaleb runs a hand over his face, chuckling.

"Not for several months, and it's not like we have to worry about protection this time, is it?" Rosemary looks at him then smiles leaning down kissing him deeply.

Niether of them noticed the slight sparkle coming from one of the passages by the door. Kaleb's nimble fingers rose quickly to the buttons of Rosemary's blouse, flicking them open deftly and exposing the lacy bra beneath. Rosemary presses her body to him sighing deeply.

"Do you like what you see Kaleb?"

"Yes..." he whispers shakily, slipping his palm over Rosemary's breast and flicking his thumb over the lace-covered hipple.

He leans forward to suck on the skin of her collarbone as he quickly finishes unbuttoning her shirt, pulling it from her arms and tossing it aside easily. Rosemary gently unbuttons his shirt pushing it off him. She needed to touch him more. Kaleb fumbles with the clasp of her bra, huffing when he can't undo it after a couple tries. Rosemary giggles and reaches back undoing it. Kaleb grins wryly, before his eyes widen and he gently runs his fingers over her bared flesh.

"You're more beautiful than I remember...." Rosemary smiles happily as she kisses his chest.

"Your just as handsome as before..." Kaleb shifts, blushing.

He didn't think he was much to look at, but the look in Rosemary's eyes spoke otherwise and made him feel handsome for the first time since he was a child. He swept her up in an achingly tender kiss, his hands running slowly down her back to rest on her hips. Rosemary melted into his arms purring. Around him she felt sensual she was happy to have him now.

"Kaleb..."

"Hm?" he hummed as his lips trailed down her throat, his fingers pulling the zipper of her skirt down.

Rosemary smiles down at him.

"I think i love you." Kaleb freezes, his heart hammering in his chest.

How long had he been dreaming of those words? How many nights spend tossing in his bed to the sound of her laughter in his ears.

"God." he groaned, pulling her into an abrupt and tight hug, burying his face against her shoulder.

Rosemary gasps and wraps her arms around his neck.

"Kaleb... whats wrong?" Kaleb shudders, his arms tightening.

"I...can't believe...god, Rosei, I love you too!" Rosemary smiles brightly and kisses him passionately pressing him back onto the pillows.

So this is what love was. Being terrified of letting someone into your heart and being told you are loved. Now she knew why almost 20 years of marriage her parents were still very much in love. Kaleb returns her kiss with fervor, smoothing his hands down her hips and taking her skirt and panties with them. Rosemary sucks on his lip as she reaches down unbuttoning his pants. Kaleb purrs, his hips rising to help. Everything was so much more vivid, more real than last time... Rosemary pulls the pants off and leans down kissing his chest.

"You taste so good..." Kaleb takes in a deep, shivery breath, running his fingers through Rosemary's hair and sweeping it across his chest in glossy waves.

"Not nearly so good as you look, I can assure you." he states breathily.

Rosemary slowly moves up as her erect nipples drag over his chest. She leans down claiming his lips deeply. Kaleb moans, his fingers tangling hopelessly in Rosemary's hair.

"Rosie...I need you." Rosemary purrs and looks down at him.

"How badly?" Kaleb gives a desperate sounding little chuckle.

"Badly." Rosemary purrs deeply then slowly slides herself down onto him with a moan.

He was much bigger than the last time. A deep moan as he fights the urge to plunge forward. Rosemary pants softly as she bounces slowly. Kaleb grips Rosemary's hips, tilting her forward a bit and thrusting upward, his hardness hitting her sweetspot dead-on. Rosemary cries out loud and grips his arms.

"Ah! God..." He wraps her hair in his fingers, pulling her gently down with it as he slows his thrusts to a rolling gait, taking her lips in a deep and toe-curling kiss.

Rosemary moans into his mouth bucking into him. God she needed him so bad. Kaleb's kiss deepened, becoming almost fierce as he pinched her nipple with his free hand, heat rising between them. Rosemary broke the kiss crying out as she bounced on him more. She couldnt last much longer with how Kaleb was touching her. Kaleb's hands roamed her body as his own tightened. He fought, but was unable to hold back his release. Wrapping his arms around Rosemary's hips and pulling her onto him hard, he shuddered and let out a loud groan as his orgasm shuddered through him. Rosemary's orgasm shot through her coating him completely. She pants hard and licks her lips. Kaleb's arms rise to tangle his hands in Rosemary's hair, spreading it over her shoulders in a dark curtain around them. He pulls her close, kissing her lips tenderly as he slowly regains his breath. Rosemary kisses him deeply and runs her fingers over his throat. She slides herself off him and lays next to him. Kaleb shifts to hold Rosemary near him.

"Rosie...you...you are aware that I want to help with...this." He rubs a hand over her belly. "I want to be a part of it." Rosemary smiles and nods holding his hand.

"You were going to be helpping even if you didnt want to. My father would make sure of that." she giggles and kisses him softly.

"Kaleb... i love you." Kaleb groans at the mention of her father.

"I love you too. Which means I expect you to protect me from your family, alright?" Rosemary nods and snuggles into him.

"I promise." Kaleb runs his hands idly through Rosemary's hair, wondering how his fathers would react to him asking for the Prince engagement ring.

He concedes to himself that they two of them are far too young for marriage, but then, they're far too young for children too. Rosemary falls asleep holding him close. Kaleb follows soon after, dreaming of what life might be like with his Rosie at his side.
