*~*~*~*~*~*~Enjoy*~*~*~*~*~*~


Christmas past with little to no interuptions. Bella and Harry were given several baby stuff from clothes to toys to bottles and diapers. Phasma was given a whole new wardrobe so he wouldnt have to keep stealing Draco's clothes. Phasma had given Severus a necklace with a P and S interwined. Over the last month of so he and Severus had become so close but they hadnt crossed that threshold into sleeping together. Bella and Phasma had quickly become very close as well. Phasma would help her out in the kitchen only for them to talk of some very disturbing topics. At this moment Bella was pulling on her fur-lined cloak that Sirius had gotten her. She was going out to pick up some special things for the babies. Harry swatted Bella's behind playfully.

"You sure you want to go out?" He asked, concern lacing his voice.

Bella giggles and turns to him. She was bigger than before making it slightly hard for her to walk.

"Dont worry i want to do this. I have my wand. I'll be careful i promise." Bella kisses his lips deeply.

Harry framed her face as the kiss ended, the concern in his eyes still visible.

"I just worry, you know." Bella smiles as she pets his hair.

"Daliha and Riven will be fine. Just a little shopping and ill be back. I promise." Harry nods.

"Alright. Hurry back." He kissed her forehead and bent to his knees, speaking against Bella's stomach as he'd been known to do recently.

"You make sure to tell mama when you've had enough, you hear me?" He said playfully, recieving a kick in response. "Well." He said, mock offended. "I see how that is." Bella giggles and pets his head.

"I think Daliha is saying that daddy shouldnt worry himself to death." Bella smiles softly.

"I'll be back." Harry nods and watches her leave before going to the parlour and flopping down beside Sirius, sighing heavily.

Sirius looks at him and shakes his head.

"Excited to be a daddy Harry?" He looked at his godson.

Only a few months ago he thought that he would have to hunt down a girl to make Harry a daddy but now... he was going to be a daddy to twins. Harry laughs nervously.

"Scared, more like. I...I'm not sure I'll be a good one." He looks down at his hands, having kept this to himself before now.

Sirius gently ran his fingers over his Harry's forehead.

"Dont worry Harry we will all help you to become the best daddy ever." Harry grins to Sirius.

"I'll hold you to that." Outside Bella walks into a small shopping area with the hood hiding her face.

She had looked into a few baby stores only to find nothing. She continued to look through store after store. Ginny Weasley froze at the door to a small kid's store as she caught a glimpse of Bella. Surely that couldn't be...She snuck into the store and looked closer, gasping quietly when she saw that, yes it *was* Bellatrix and she was...pregnant?! Bella stops at the window of a Quidditch store. She looks at sees brooms made for little children.

"Those are so cute." Ginny followed her in shock before running to the closest public floo connection.

She called on Dumbledore, her voice breathless.

"Come in Ginny..." Dumbledore was in his office fuming.

That bastard Voldemort had spoiled his spell on Harry and now that bitch was getting closer to her due date. Ginny came through, her face pale.

"Bellatrix LeStrange is in Diagon Alley..." she gasped out, wide-eyed.

Dumbledore stood up fast.

"She is...hm... follow her. Find where she goes Ginny. Then call me with this." Dumbledore waves his wand making a small stone appear in her hand.

"Just call for me and you will be brought here." Ginny nodded. taking the stone and pocketing it as she left, the dizzying floo trip doing nothing to quell her nausea.

She found Bella quickly. Stupid fat bint, Ginny thought uncharitably as she watched the woman browse the shelves of an old apothecary. Bella rubbed her stomach gently smiling softly. She had a bag with a few outfits and a few hair do dads for little Daliha. She would undoubtable have her hair. She continues to look around before decided that since the babies were kicking harder than normal it was time to go home. She walked towards the manor. Ginny watched, keeping her distance. She recognized the path Bella took and quickly removed the stong from her pocket.

"Dumbledore?" She was pulled through the air bakc into Dumbledore's office.

"She went to the LeStrange manor" Ginny said, raising an eyebrow.

How could he have not looked there? It seemed obvious to her... Dumbledore nodded as he leaned against his chair. He summised that since that cow was there that Voldemort was there as well. He wouldn't leave one of his best Death Eaters alone in a house without his protection. Ginny stood expectantly in front of the Headmaster's desk.

"Um. Is there...anything else?"

"Yes you are going to join me for an attack on that house. I want you to go there and to find where Harry is. I will know when you have found him. Go." Dumbledore said before walking out of the room.

Ginny stared incredulously at the empty desk for a moment before nodding to herself and making her way to the manor. She stared at it, wondering what she was supposed to do...Should she just knock on the door? Try to sneak in? The sight of someone in the kitchen was scene. Ginny crept closer to the window, watching as the person got closer. Bella walked into the kitchen still in the cloak as she unloads her bags showing them off to Sirius. Ginny snuck to a different window, happy and nervous to find it unlocked. She slid it upward slowly and snuck into the house, her footfalls silent as she crept past the kitchen where she heard Bella and Sirius. She gritted her teeth, wondering who else had fell to the darkness...

"So where is Harry?" Bella asked grabbing the clothes and the hair ties.

"I wanted to show him this stuff." Ginny froze, listening intently, nervous about being out in the open hallway, even if the stairs somewhat hid her from view.

"Oh he's in the bedroom. Probably pacing on the floor." Bella giggles and takes the stuff walking past Ginny and up the stairs.

Her belly hindered her slightly but not completely. Ginny snuck after Bella, her heart beating fast. In the bedroom? she thought. That made it sound like...No! Surely....ther was no way... Bella stepped into the room and set the stuff on the small table by the door.

"Harry? Are you in here?" Ginny clenched her fist around her wand, how dare that bitch be so familiar with her Harry?

Harry entered from the bathroom, only a towel wrapped around his waist.

"You're back." His relief was practically visible.

Bella visibly blushes at the sight of her fiaunce in nothing but a towel.

"Dear god Harry... you are a walking add for permissquity." Bella gulpped already feeling rather turned on.

Ginny entered the room calmly, her rage licking at her insides, but not showing on her face. She ran her wand around in her fingers when neither of the two noticed her immediately.

"That's some woman you've got, Harry." She said. causing him to jump violently.

Bella turns fast looking as she looked at Ginny. Hermione had spoke of how psychotic Ginny had become and this scared her. More for her babies than her life. She pulled out her wand fast pointing it at her.

"Drop your wand Weasley!" Ginny laughed at the panicked look on Harry's face and grinned at Bella.

"Why? Do you think you can hurt me before I kill Harry? Or the bastard flesh in your belly?" Bella growled then flicked her wrist sending a blue flicker of light sending Ginny's wand flying into Harry's hand.

"Threaten me all you like but when you threaten my fiaunce or my babies then i wont let you live to speak a word." Ginny gasped as her want flew from her hand and pulled a small work knife from her belt, lunging, not at Bella, but Harry.

He caught her wrists easily, staring at her.

"What the fuck, Ginny? Calm down now!" But the young redhead ignored him, snarling and trying to stab him with the trapped knife.

Bella quickly ran from the room as the main door burst open only to have Dumbledore stride in with Aurors in towe. Everyone in the house began to fight against the Auror while Bella ran to Ginny and grabbed both of her wrists and pulled them behind her hard. The Knife hits the floor. Ginny screams struggling against Bella's hold as Harry grabs her in a bear-hug, holding her arms to her sides.

"Get her wand and stupefy her!" he yelled over Ginny's screaming.

Bella waves her wand and before she can utter a word a red stream of light hits her sending her flying into the bedpost then hard to the floor. Blood began to roll out of her ears from the impact. Dumbledore looked at Harry his wand still out stretched.

"Bella!" Every cell in Harry exploded in rage as the room was filled with a strong wind.

His eyes rolled back and he turned in Dumbledore's direction, dropping Ginny to the floor without a word, unconsious. He held his hand out, wandless and felt the air between him and Dumbledore flex. He pushed forward, knowing the impact it would have on the old man, but uncaring, wishing only to hurt the one who'd hurt his Bella.... Dumbledore held out his hands as the impact was now a meer pushing. A shimmer of black came as Voldemort stood near Harry.

"Harry you have to control yourself. Otherwise he will toy with you." Harry gulped, red-tinged tears gathering in the corners of his eyes.

"Is she okay...are they..."

"I dont know but her lifeforce is still there along with the babies. Now focus on the old fart." Voldemort pulls out his wand looking at Dumbledore.

Harry felt his magic returning to him, no less powerful, but more controlled and focussed. Voldemort focus's his magic ont he old man before Dumbledore growled. This snake man had Harry wrapped around his finger.

"This is far from over Harry!" Dumbledore waved his hand making him disappear as Sirius yelled up to the room.

"The aurors are gone!" Harry stared at the place where Dumbledore was before turning to Bella.

He ran to her, dropping to his knees beside her, tears clouding his vision.

"Bella....Bella, please be okay. Please." He felt the hot course of his tears, but didn't care.

He wrapped his Bella in his arms, rocking her and calling her name quietly, begging for her to wake up. Voldemort knelt by Ginny waving his hand to wake her. Bella whimpered slightly as she groaned deeply. Harry's breath left him as he heard Bella's voice.

"Thank Merlin. Bella, please. Wake up, love. I need you..." Voldemort gently shakes Ginny.

"Ginny wake up..." Bella groaned again this time a little louder.

Ginny breathed deeply, her eyes flickering open, but not focussing on anything. Voldemort looked at her.

"Good you arent hurt. Harry how is Bella?" Bella groans more gripping Harry's shirt as pain starts to rake through her.

Harry watches Bella, his heart wrenching.

"I...don't think...so good." Bella cries out as she grits her teeth.

"Harry... they are coming!" Her dress was covered in a watery blood.

Harry stared in horror at the blood, looking up to Voldemort in desperation.

"Oh god..." Voldemort's eyes widen as he gently hellped Ginny up.

"Harry can you get her onto the bed?" Harry lifted Bella without a thought, his adrenaline giving him strength.

He cradled her to him as he settled both of them on the bed. He held her head to his chest and could not seem to calm his breathing.

"It's....it's okay. It'll be okay...it has to be..." Bella grips Harry's pant leg as she releases of shuddering breath.

"Ah... it hurts.." Bella whimpered as Voldemort looked at Ginny.

"Can you help us Ginny?" Ginny stared at Bella, her heart somewhere in the vicinity of her throat.

She turned slowly to Voldemort, every sound echoing and magnified as she swallowed heavily and nodded. She knew....she knew she'd threatened the babies....but that was just to get results. She wouldn't have....ever....how could Dumbledore hurt....they were innocent....Ginny felt her eyes flutter as a faint feeling came over her. Voldemort gently led Ginny to the bed as Bella let out a scream as she clawed at Harry's pants.

"Ahhh!" Ginny's eyes snapped open and the veil of shock lifted.

"Oh my God!" She cried, her hands going to her face as she realized who it was that had touched her, led her to the bed so gently- as though he gave a damn about her.

Something in her chest squeezed and she felt so disoriented. Her confused mind latched onto one thing she knew how to do. She rose and ran from the room, yelling for Hermione. Bella whimpered as Voldemort watched Ginny run out then gently lifted Bella's dress.

"Harry hold onto her hand and just get her to breath through the pain." Harry nodded and coached Bella into her breathing, looking like an asthma patient himself as he imitated her.

Outside, Ginny finally found Hermione.

"Please. I need hot towels, a sharp pair of scissors and....and....Oh, God, she's having the babies!" Hermione and Pansy who were in the parlour silently questioning why the psychotic Ginny was in the house.

But that would be asked later. Both girls ran around grabbing what was needed and ran to Harry's room. Ginny followed after, her freckles in stark contrast to her bloodless face. As the girls worked with Voldemort and Harry, she watched, dumbfounded. She saw the care they took with her, Voldemort's deference to Bella's pain and the way Harry seemed to be holding on by a thread. Everything in her shriveled into a concentrated ball of shame. How could she have done this? Brought this on? Voldemort gently looks down.

"Alright the first one coming Bella... on the next contraction push as hard as you can." Bella slowly nods as she bared down pushing as hard as she could.

Hermione and Pansy got things ready for the awaiting babies. Harry held Bella tightly, his head reeling, his heart aching. Please, he thought, please let them all be okay. Ginny watched as Voldemort- The Dark Lord himself!- reached down to deliver Bella's baby. Voldemort smiled softly as he looked at Bella who panted hard from both pain and tiredness.

"Ok One more Bella. I can almost get it out." Bella whimpered then bared down again as a sharp cry was heard.

"It's a girl!" Voldemort said as he turned to Hermione gently handing the screaming baby to Hermione who cut the cord and handed to Pansy to clean her off. Pansy turned to Ginny.

"Can you hold her?" Ginny took the baby numbly, wrapping her in the towel Pansy provided.

She stared into the tiny wrinkled face and felt something in her break. Tears coursed down her face and fell onto the baby's thick black hair. It waved it's tiny fists and mewled, it's puckered lips squeezing together. She looked up at Harry, who was staring at the baby in woder and rapt happiness, tears shining in his eyes. Their eyes met, and Ginny knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that she'd almost made one of the biggest mistakes of her life....if Dumbledore had killed them....But Harry smiled at her and she felt her legs go weak. How could someone harbor such forgiveness? Was it even possible? Bella cried out as Voldemort looked a little more worried.

"Ok Bella dont push yet." He gently reaches in making Bella gasp slightly.

Harry couldn't see exactly what Voldemort was doing from his angle, but his brows furrowed.

"What....what's going on?"

"Your son is flipped around and the cord might wrap around his neck." Voldemort said as Bella whimpered. "Just have to turn him." Harry's heart dropped.

"Is....will he be okay?"

"He will i promise." Voldemort said as he pulled his hands from inside her. "Ok Bella push." Bella bares down as she grips Harry's pant leg tighter as a few tears roll down her cheeks.

Ginny suddenly realized something and stared down at the little girl in her arms. The still squirming, but very *quiet* little girl in her arms. Her already pale skin went even whiter and she yelled at Pansy.

"Pansy! come here, hold her! Come here!" Pansy gets up and gently holds the baby.

"What is it?" Ginny called her wand to her and cast an almost unintelligible spell.

Her wand made a sound similar to a tiny vacuum cleaner and she opened the girl's mouth, sucking out the fluids and tissue that were making it impossible for her to breathe. When her passageway was clear, the baby hiccuped several times before releasing an almighty wail that brought tears of relief to Ginny's eyes. Pansy looked at Ginny in shock.

"How did you know?" A sharp cry was heard from the bed as Voldemort gently held the baby boy.

"It's a boy!" he said as Hermione cut the cord and wrapped the baby up.

Ginny swallowed.

"Fleur had some trouble with her first two..." Pansy smiles and gently holds the baby.

"Can you do that for the other one. Or teach Hermione how to do it?" Voldemort uses his wand to heal up Bella who had fallen into a dead sleep against Harry.

Ginny goes to Hermione hesitantly.

"H-he looks fine." She says, watching the boy wail.

"He must have expelled it all before he got out. Um..." She looked away, a deep blush of shame crossing her features.

"I should...probably go. You probably don't want me here..." Pansy looks at her.

"Please at least stay for awhile. Ron would be happy to see you." Voldemort looks at Harry.

"How is Bella's pulse?" Harry nods.

"Calming now. S-s-she'll be okay....won't she?" He asked, naked fear still in his raw voice.

Ginny stared at Pansy for a moment before nodding reluctantly.

"I'll....stay." Voldemort nods smiling.

"She is strong she will be fine." Pansy smiles as she slowly turned and hands Harry his daughter.

Harry took her with strong, but shaking hands. Dahlia opened her eyes, staring around for several moments before mewling pitifully. Harry looked up at Ginny questioningly. Ginny shrugged.

"She's hungry."

"Infants can take formula till their mothers are consious." Hermione says as Voldemort gently picks up the little boy.

"What's the son's name?"

"Riven" Harry stated, sounding slightly stunned. "My...son's name is Riven." He stared down at his daughter as though just now realizing he had children. "Oh my God...." his face split into a dazed smile and more tears poured down his cheeks.

Riven whimpers slightly and squirmed in Voldemort's arms.

"Your son's a squirmer." There's a laugh from the doorway as Sirius peeks in.

"Like father like son." He says, a proud gleam in his eye.

He steps up to Harry, a hand on his shoulder.

"How does it feel, Harry?" he asks quietly.

Harry looks up to him.

"Um. Scary." He says and Sirius laughs brightly.

"Your dad'll be angry I got here before him." Harry frowns and looks around.

"Actually....Bella needs rest..." Voldemort held the boy to Sirius.

"Come on everyone lets leave the new family to rest." Hermione quickly cleaned up and walked out with Pansy in towe.

Voldemort turned to Ginny and sighed.

"Come with me Weasley." Ginny swallowed audibly, but nodded, her hands shaking. She followed quietly, wondering what he would do to her? What was the punishment for almost having one of your friends killed? And their babies? Ginny drew in a shaky breath. Voldemort led her to his chambers and shut the door. "Why did you bring Dumbledore here?"

"He...I...w-w-w...." She takes a deep breath, the lump in her throat making it more difficult than it should have been. "I was supposed to find H-h-h-harry." Voldemort nods as he turns to her.

"What are you feeling's toward the people in this house now?" Ginny nodded and thought about the question seriously.

When she opened her mouth to answer, her voice was clear and calm.

"I feel...like I have wronged them. That Dumbledore's....reaction was wrong and harsh." Voldemort slowly nods then turns away from her as the heart he thought he no longer possessed began to race.

"If you wish... you may stay here. We have plenty of room."

"I..." Ginny's voice was almost inaudible as she responded. "I don't think the other…"

"The others will understand. They will know that you never meant to harm the babies but you were following the old fart. Your brother is also guilty of that." Voldemort doesnt turn to her as he feels his heart continue to pound.

"Oh." She says, unable to look at Voldemort. "I...I'm not sure I believe that your side is the right side." She scrunches her eyes shut. Were she smart, she would have kept that information to herself, but she could not lie anymore. "But...I don't believe Dumbledore's is either."

"That is fine... just dont betray us and you will have a place to live." Voldemort slowly turned to her then slowly gulps.

God she was so beautiful. Ginny nodded slowly.

"I don't know if it's possible to be neutral here..."

"That is for you to decide." Voldemort slowly steps over and rests his hands on her shoulders.

Suddenly he realized that touching her was a very bad idea. God she felt so small in his hands. Ginny's shoulders were still shaking, but she found the courage to turn her wide blue eyes to Voldemort's shining red ones.

"Me?" She asked quietly.

"Yes... only you can decide if you want to believe us or Dumbledore." Voldemort gently gripped her shoulders trying to control his long dormant sexual tension. Ginny stared at him for several moments, trying to figure out just what he was thinking. Her shoulders stopped shaking, but she felt an unexplainable blush gather in her cheeks. She parted her lips to take a breath. Voldemort suddenly released her shoulders. "Well um your brother is in the room to the right third door. He will help you to find a bedroom." Voldemort turned away from her as the image of her parted lips turned him on to no end.

Ginny blinked in surprise.

"Oh...well...Um..." She froze, having no idea what to say.

Her eyes glanced around the room curiously as something suddenly occured to her.

"Is this...er....your room?”

"Yes it is... Bella wa gracious enough to give me the master bedroom. Why?" Voldemort asked still keeping his eyes away from the young woman.

"It's more...um." Ginny swallowed.

She was about to say 'human', but didn't want to offend the Dark Lord. It was true though. Everything she'd been told had led her to believe that Voldemort was a inhuman embodiment of evil, when it was obvious that just wasn't true.

"My room was decortated by Narcissa. The room has grown on me." Voldemort then gulps slightly. It was hard to keep from looking at her. She was so gorgous that he could barely control himself. Ginny nodded absent-mindedly. She continued inspecting the room, finally noticing an old book. Not nearly as old as some of her schoolbooks, but old nonetheless. It was obviously a notebook of some sort with a leather cover and a clasp shaped like an auroboros. She stepped forward and reached out unthinkingly to pick it up. As quick as a flash his hand came out and gripped her wrist.

"Dont touch that." his voice rough and slightly paniced. "Please just go to your brother." he said slowly releaseing her wrist. Fear spiked through Ginny as she looked up at Voldemort and froze. Voldemort looked down at her then stepped away. "Thats an old book please just go."

Ginny looked down and nodded, quickly leaving, her heart beating faster than it ever had. Once outside the room, she leaned against the wall, her hand clutching her chest. What...was that? She thought, her hands shaking in fear and...and....she didn't know what. Voldemort sighed heavily. God if he ever wanted to be with Ginny he couldnt be the same snake man. He wondered if Severus knew any appearence changing potions that were permenate. He walked through his floo to Snapes home. Pansy was walking down the hall and saw Ginny.

"Hey Ginny." Ginny swallowed thickly.

"H-hello." Pansy smiled.

"Come on i was going to see Ron." Ginny turned back to the closed door to Voldemort's room, hearing the floo flare up.

She ran a hand over her hair.

"I-I left my wand in the other room. I'll just go get it and meet you in the kitchen, shall I?" Pansy smiles and nods turning and walking away from her.

Ginny waits until the girl is out of sight before sneaking back into Voldemort's room. She swallows as she does. She knows she has very little time and stares at the book on the table. She draws her wand and casts a duplication spell, watching as a second book begins to come into being, bits of paper pressing together into a sheet, leather growing from the top of the table until there are two. She pockets it, making her way quickly out and down to meet Pansy.
