Less and less the clothes fit. More and more she had morning sickness. Often she craved foods she hated. She remembered the day that it sank in. The day she realized that she could be pregnant. Everyone was telling her that she was gaining that much needed weight and she was suprised at this. She was at a solid weight of 94 pounds for a year and then she was at a eight of 100 it was crazy to her. Then things started adding up and was brave and took the dreaded pregnacy test which came out positive and then another and another all reading the same thing. Someone close to her had asked her if she was pregnat and she had denied it, to scared to tell anyone.
It was somthing that she had kept inside for a month but it was getting harder and harder to hide and she knew it, sooner or later she would just have to come out with the truth. Even though she didn't want to. She honestly didn't want Halen to be the father, he didn't deserve a child, ecspecially not one that was half hers. This made her think that all of the fooling around was dumb and childish and in the end it had left her seventeen and pregnat. She was still a child herself, she couldn't deal with this.
Li Na stepped into the Three Broomsticks, belly swollen and tired. Her pregnacy had not been easy, she threw up everymoring and felt like crap but more and more she reminded herself that is was her fault. She slowly drank pumpkin juice, drowning in her sorrows.

It sucked to be in hiding. With nothing to do, Draco had begun to excersize more and more, building up more muscle mass. Draco was also learning more and more dark magic with each passing day, as that was expected of him from his master. Master. How he dreaded and detested that word. Draco Malfoy was not supposed to be weak. He was not supposed to give in like this, but then again, he had done just that. He had helped the DE's in to Hogwarts, against his wishes, perhaps, but that wasn't what had bothered him so much about it. It was that he had done it out of fear, that because of him Albus Dumbeldore was now dead and gone, as was his bravery.
Draco popped in his brown color contacts and placed a pair of glasses in front of his eyes. He was wearing muggle clothing, a rich red sweater and a pair of khaki pants that were slightly too long for him. He had a pair of red high-tops on, and he looked more like a Gryffindor then ever. It was sickening. But Draco happened to have a reputation to hold, one of being a goody-two shoes foreigner from France. He did a good job acting it out, really, but it still sucked.
It was when Draco (or Brice) walked in to the Three Broomsticks that he saw her. Li Na Shing, the girl he continued to love unconditionally. She looked bigger then usual, as if she had been eating more. But that did nothing to detract from her beauty. f**k everything Pansy Parkinson had to say, this girl would have been beautiful if she weighed 300 pounds. Yes, Draco had started to believe in inner beauty, and sadly enough recognized that he had none.
Draco couldn't fight the urge, and with his best french accent he walked up to Li Na with a smile. "Miss Shing,"he said, taking her hand to his lips (he really couldn't help himself), "We met briefly."

Li Na smiled at the boy kissing her hand. Now finally there was a "real" gentlemen left on the earth. "Hi, you are Brice, right?" she asked smiling. She had never picked up on the fact that it could have even been Draco. She sadly never notice, although she had always sensed something so familiar about his presence, never being able to put a finger on it.
She stood up. "I was just about to go for a walk. Are you interested in coming along?" she asked curiously. She had given him an even better view of the "gained" weight but she thought her secret was well kept. She didn't realize that slowly people were catching on. They thought it was rude to take notice in case, it was not.

Draco smirked, but quickly let the corners of his mouth turn down. Draco had always smirked, but Brice, on the otherhand, shouldn't have. He just hoped to god that she hadn't caught it because had she known it was him she'd probably start throwing things at him yelling that he was responsible for her headmaster's death. That would be awful.
"That would be lovely."Draco said in that French accent he was so good with, before his mind could tell him to decline. Draco did see the gained weight, but the thought that she was with child would never occur to him. Afterall, he had this strange concept in his head that Li Na would wait for him, he knew deep down it wasn't true, but it did raise his spirits to have the delusion of such.

She smiled at him. Not taking much notice to the smirk because sadly, she thought he was long gone, never to return. "So how is school going?" she asked, trying to strike up a conversation. She frowned a little as she finally realized who Brice was last with when she had met him. It was Halen, the father of her soon to be child.
She quickly looked down to see her stomach poking out and she crossed her arms, to hide it. She had been doing this a lot lately, the less noticable the better or at least that is what she thought.

Brice shook his head. "I'm not attending this year."he said with a shrug. "I've decided against it, I'm taking a year off from everything and then I'll begin my studies for Dragon handling."he explained. In truth, it was simply too risky to go back to the scene of the crime. "I assume you aren't going to school either?"
Draco smiled at her. "What have you been up to since we last spoke?"he asked.

Li Na had wanted to be an Auror but sadly her dreams had come crashing down when she realized she was pregnant. She realized that they would never hire her because it was a risk for her baby and she wouldn't want to put it in danger anyways. "Umm... actually I have decided to return, I changed my mind." she said not providing much detail.
She kind of chuckled. She had been up to a lot. Oh making a baby with my best friends boyfriend and so on. She smiled realizing how funny that would sound. Great I will just tell him that, she thought with a smile. "Oh not much." she said smiling

Draco smiled slightly, actually happy for the fact the Li Na would be finishing her education. At least her life wasn't f**ked up like his was. It was good to know that at least. "I see."he said. "Does it not upset you that Dumbeldore has... err.... passed on?"he asked. He really hoped that she wouldn't care, because if she was close to him then Draco would hate himself even more.
Draco raised a brow. "Nothing?"he asked. He narrowed his eyes slightly, realiseing something that wrenched in him like a knife. What if Halen was dating her? "Aren't you dating Halen?"he asked suddenly, hoping to god that his abruptness wouldn't blow his cover.

"Yes I am upset, Hogwarts won't be the same without him. I mean he was very important part of the school and it is sad that he has past but life sadly has to go on." she said kind of sadly. "I still have to go to school and so on and even if he is not there. I mean a lot of people I care about won't be there." she said sadly.
She was shocked by his question, did he know that they had hooked up. She hoped not. "Umm... Ummm no we are not dating." she said a little taken back. "Umm did he say anything to you that would hint to that, because if so it is not true." she said a little worried.

Draco's faced darkened slightly. Just bloody perfect, he had managed to ruin her life too. How bloody fantastic. He menatally slapped himself, and returned to the conversation. He was Brice now, not Draco, and he had to remind himself of that.
Draco smiled. "No, he didn't. Though, if you don't mind me saying so, he seems interested."he said darkly, hoping she got the hint that he was a git and that he was bad news. He hoped she still felt that way. Halen was scum, and Draco despised him in every way.

"Oh yeah he is interested." she said letting it slip out and then kind of hating herself for saying that. Great she had given him ideas, a total stranger. She quickly changed the subject. "Wow look at that cloud." she said pointing to a random one. She felt so dumb and there again went her fantatsic changing the subject skills. "He actually isn't that bad." she said trying to let him see the real Halen, not the hateful one.
"He can be very caring." she said smiling a bit. She got the feeling that he didn't like him to well and Halen often came off that way. But lately he had been so great to her. He had been kind and caring and she missed that part of him. She knew that he had a bad side to and she was careful to avoid it.

Draco snapped. CARING??? He was a pervert and a womanizer. Not that Draco was a saint, but he wasn't as bloody disgusting as Halen was. Draco stopped Li Na, putting his hands on her shoulders to make her stop walking. "Li Na,"he said. "Halen is bad news. I'm telling you that now because I've seen him hurt people before, and I'd hate for it to happen to you too."he said, his french accent still playing out perfectly. It had become second nature. "He'll take advantage of you if you aren't careful, Li Na, be wary of that."

She was a bit taken back when Brice did that. "No no no." she said smiling. "He has changed." she said softly. "He isn't so bad anymore." she said simply. "And when have to seen him hurt people?" she asked suspiciously. "Just give him a try, he can appear to be abusive and stupid but he is not, deep down he is a good person." she said.

Draco narrowed his eyes at her. "Just trust me, Li Na, he isn't as bloody fantastic as you think he is. He hs some secrets of his own, and you'd be surprised at how much he can hide from you. It's not myh place to reveal it, but I am telling you that he'll never be truthful. He's a womanizing bastard, Li Na, I know from being his..."he struggled for the word. "Friend."

"Well you aren't really his friend." she said pushing past him. "You say to much crap about him." she said walking off. Now angry, where did this guy come from? He was telling her who to talk to and he didn't even know her. She was pissed and angry. She wanted to believe in something good about him after all he was the father of her child.
