Cecelia was very nervous. After seeing his father, the healer, she now had huge, gigantic news. How was she going to tell him? She stepped into the room of requirement, where a long line of alcoholic beverages lay on a bar. She chuckled. "Very cute... I know I need it but I can't have it..." She sighed. Never drank a day in her life and now she couldn't. She took a deep breath as the room wizzed around her, changing into a couch. "Better."

*Dorien had been sent an owl to meet Cecelia in the room of requirement that afternoon. He hadn't really had much of a chance to see her a lot since the got back from Mungos, and he was sort of anxious so he had decided to arrive a little earlier than she had asked him to. But when he got there, to his suprise, she was already there. He smiled and shut the door behind him* "Hi...." *He noticed she looked bervous and his smiled lessened slightly* "Is everything alright? Are you ok?"

Cecelia ran up to him, wrapping herself into his arms. "Oh Dorien..." She took his face in her hands, kissing him all over before settling on his lips. Her hands were shaking, as well as most of the rest of her body, and she hardly knew what she would say if he pulled away and asked her again, so she did her best not to, although knowing she would need to come up for air soon.

*When Dorien felt that she was shaking, he got really worried. He held her and kised her, holding the kiss for a moment before pulling back, still holding her close to him. He looked into her eyes, obviously worried* "What is it? Is it Tyrin? Did he hurt you?" *He asked softly, not wanting to scare her or himself any further. Dorien started to guide them over towards the couch so they could sit.*

"No," she whispered, a mixture of intense happiness, and fierce fear laced in her eyes. She shook her head and sat, not letting go of his hands. "I don't know how you're going to take the results of your father's exam but.." She put her head down into his lap, taking a deep breath of nervousness before sitting back up to look at him.

"He said he thought you would be afraid..."

*By this point, Dorien was really terrified. By the way she was making it sound, he thought that she was really sick. He held onto her hands, not wanting to ever let go.* "Are you sick? Like.....really sick?" *He asked, his stomach lurching as he said it*

Her mouth dipped in a light smile and she shook her head. "Not yet anyway," she said, gently touching the side of his face. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. "It'll be painful, and I'll get very, very sick, but it will go away after a while..." She was too afraid to say the words at the moment, but she was working up to it. "It's sort of...a side effect of that potion you've been taking..."

*If it was at all possible, Dorien because paler than he already was.* "It's my fault....I'm so sorry Cecelia...I was only taking it so I could be closer to you." *Dorien was really hurting inside by this point. She was sick and it was his fault.*

Cecelia let out a nervous chuckle. "No, baby it's not like that..." She took a deep breath and brought his hand to her stomach, biting her lower lip. "It's not like that at all..." She caught his eyes and blinked a few times, her eyes more happy than afraid now. "Remember when you said Vampires couldn't reproduce?"

"Yes....." *He said cautiously. Dorien was beginning to put two and two together. She was hungry, her stomach hurts, he had placed his hand on her stomach....but she couldn't possibly be pregenet....that wasn't possible. He just stared at her, excited and terrified, waiting for her to say it....that was the only way that it could be made true for him*

She let out a breath she didn't know she was holding, and it came out in a soft whisper of a laugh. "You were wrong." She bit her lower lip, her eyes gleaming in excitement. "That potion you've been taking... Something about it... And I'm pregnant with your baby." She felt herself begin to shake, waiting for his reaction, and slightly afraid he would be upset.

*Dorien was quiet for a moment. He looked away and stared down at the ground.* "You're....p..pregenet?" *He looked back up at her and a grin slowly spread over his face* "Pregenet....." *He repeated it, trying to make himself believe it. He laughed and continued to look at her* "No....you're having a baby?" *He laughed again* "Cecelia, I thought you were going to tell me you were dying!"

At his last sentance, she couldn't help but giggle. She giggled lightly, still tentative. "No, I'm not dying Dorien." She put her hands on his face and looked into it, a sweet sense of satesfaction waving over her as she worked up to her next sentance. "Dorien.. We're having a baby."

*He grinned at her. He knew that the shock and doubt and regret would come later, but now all he could feel was an intense joy* "We're having a baby...." *He said and sighed* "I love you so much....." *He leaned in and kissed her softly*

"I love you too," she almost whispered, and wrapped herself up in his arms, suddenly feeling so comfortable...so warm...so sure. She looked up at him with wide eyes. "And you're okay? You're not..upset?" She stroaked his cheek with one soft, warm hand and licked her lips in nervousness. "Not afraid?"

"Yeah I'm afraid...." *He said, hugging her. Dorien layed back on the couch, bringing her so that she was laying next to him* "But I'm excited.....I didn't think this was possible....we're going to have a baby..." *He grinned* "Is a girl or a boy? Oh..I guess you wouldn't know that yet, would you?" *He chuckled at his own over excitment*

She shook her head. "No, it hasn't even been two months yet. We have about three more to go before we'll know... And I'm not even sure I want to know. I want to be surprized." She rubbed her face against his neck. "Hmm... What names work with the last name Hurt?" She wrinkled her nose. "Not many." She chuckled and poked at him. "Because I know sure as hell that I am not naming my poor kid Ferrari."

*He chuckled* "Hmmm...yeah, there arn't many that go with Hurt, are there?" *He thought a moment* "Isabella's pretty. Isabella Hurt. I dunno...." *He grinned and looked at her* "You sure you want Hurt as the last name?"

Cecelia nodded, lacing one of her long fingered hands with his. She looked up at him. "I want him or her to have your last name of course. Ferrari's are too..." She wrinkled her nose. "Too known. I want my baby to have a chance." She licked her lips. "Hmm... I always liked Ophelia... Boy names are harder than girl ones."

"Yeah agree." *He absently started to run his fingers through her hair* "We can always buy a baby name book and pick out a name." *Dorien sighed* "I wonder if Simon told my mother...." *He looked down at her* "Would you like to come home with me sometime so that you could meet everyone? Sometime soon, I mean."

She wrinkled her nose, and crossed her arms. "I don't want to meet Alice." She knew she was being silly, but she couldn't help it. She had always been the jealous type but...Now she was pregnant with his baby. Why should she have to deal with jealousy any more? She was just stubborn.

"But your dad was very nice you know.. He told me I smelled nice."

"I've told you that before.....you do smell nice. And you know you're really being silly about Alice. She's very nice. I think you would like her very much. Jasper too. And my mother will adore you." *He smiled at her* "I would really like you to meet Alice..." *He encouraged, looking at her with a hint of pleading in his eyes. If she really didn't want to, he wasn't going to make her, but it hurt his feels that he wasn't even giving his sister a chance*

She pouted, but leaned in to give him a soft kiss. "Alright.. I will meet them. But I can't promise to like the girl..." Her voice was more sweet now, almost in a joking manner as she leaned into him. She chuckled to herself. "I hope they like me. I wonder if your daddy told them about your baby..."

"I doubt he did. e may have, but I have a feeling that he would have left that to me." *He paused oto think a moment about what they could do if they did go up to his house* "I'd still like to meet the rest of your family."

She rolled her eyes. "No you wouldn't. I have a way too vain Veela mother, a whorish father who was kicked out of the death eater community, death eater uncles, weak aunts, a whorish lot of sisters... and one very sweet nephew..." She smiled at the thought of her sweet little Ian. "Well, I have a nice cousin. He comes to school here. His name is Cole Vera, and he's engaged to this girl Paige... They're nice but other than that..." She sighed and looked down at her hands. "Well, Adeyla is alright, but she's not too fond of the rest of us. She changed her last name to Kain...After her mother"

"Alright. I guess if you say sao....." *He said quietly* "But i'm going to have to meet them eventually, you know." *He closed his eyes* "I guess I'll write home today and ask when it would be okay for us to go."

Cecelia wrapped one leg around his body, and slid her body up so she was on top of him, with a grin across her lips. "You do not.." She said, and leaned in to press their lips together. "You know Dorien... You're going to be a daddy. You've lived like, 500 years and you've never been a daddy before. This is just as new to you as it is to me." She leaned in to him again, gently nipping at his lower lip.

*Dorien smiled and rolled his eyes* "I've only lived 121 yeahs.....122 in December." *He kissed her* "I know....I'm nervous. You're going to be a great mom. That kid's pretty lucky that you're the mommy"

She giggled. "I hope so..but like I was telling your dad, we didn't really give this baby very little chance...you know it'll be part vampire, and part veela right? I think it's really funny...very pale skin and dark dark hair...freezing cold in the winter, and tan as me in the summer... Nobody will know what to make of her." She didn't even realize that she had specified a gender.

*DOrien smiled* "Her? You've decided you want a girl now?" *He asked, smiling at the thought of what the baby would be like, appearance wise*

She tilted her head to the side, her facial expression slightly confused. "No, actually. I've always wanted a boy.. Especially since I've been with you. I want a little son, just like you. I don't know why I said she..." She bit her lower lip, knowing the old family tradition of believing the first thing that came to the mother's mind when it came to a baby's gender. It was rediculous of course, but she knew it was a possibility. Hey, it was a 1 in 2 possibility.

*Dorien smiled* "Yeah, I was hoping for a boy too. But if I had a little girl to spoil rotten, I'd be alright with that too of course." *He smiled* "So, where are we going to live? Your cottage? or should I start looking for a flat?"

"There are Ferrari homes everywhere... I'm sure my father will give me a choice of which one I'd like. We'll stay at Hogwarts of course until I graduate...whenever it is that you're going to graduate... Anyway, there are some in Hogsmeade, and then there are a few in other countries of course. You're more than welcome to help me choose..." She chuckled.

"If we have a girl, I daresay I know of a certain someone that will have to kill some little boys for coming near his little baby..."

"Hmmm, yes, I can see that happening...." *He said, refering to protecting his baby girl from all the boys* "I'm in my 6th year. Again." *He said with a smile*

She nodded. "Okay, we'll move in together permanantly when you graduate, but we can have it to ourselves on holidays you know..." She closed her eyes, leaning her face into his neck. "We can start with the one in Hogsmeade so the baby and I can be near you... I'm sure they won't let me stay if I'm not attending.."

"Yeah, I don't think they will. I can come visit both of you as often as I'm allowed. And then I'll graduate and we can move in together elsewhere....Although, I tend to have to move around a lot. People start to get suspicious when they realize that I never get any older..."

Cecelia nodded, then sighed once again. "Dorien.. Very soon I'm going to look so much older than you... And then what happens when the baby looks older than you? Then what do we do? How weird will it look for us to run around, you looking 16 with a woman looking 40? And your 'baby' looking 30?"

"I don't know." *He said quietly. He secretly wanted to turn the baby into a vampire once it was older. He knew that it would took strange, and he figured that by that point she would ask him to leave. He hoped it never came to that, bt he figured it may eventualy*

Cecelia wrapped her arms around him and pressed kisses across his face. "It's horrible to think of these things, I know... And I don't want to but it makes me nervous..." She gently kissed his lips, not wanting to pull away. "I love you, you know...more than I even meant to. I love you and I hope you know that."

"I know you do....." *He said, still quiet. He hadn't kissed her back, now too consumed by the thought of her leaving* "I love you too...."
