* Neville's nightmare *
It was fifth year. Sirius just punched Lucious Malfoy in the face, knocking the ball out of his hand and having it smash on the floor. A Death Eater just smashed Annabelle's head to the wall knocking her out.
" ANNABELLE ! " Neville shouted with everyone else. All of a sudden it was sixth year. Neville slowly walked into the hospital wing to find Annabelle laying on a bed. Eyes closed he touched her hand. Cold as ice. Just like it was in sixth year, she looked dead.
" Mr. Longbottom," Neville heard a familiar voice. He turned and saw Madame Pomfrey looking grieved. Behind her stood all his friends and Annabelle's friends including Malfoy and staff, they stood with their hands together and heads bowed down.
" Is something wrong ? " Neville asked. Sandra broke down crying.
" I'm afraid...ms hood didn't make it," She said with great difficulty. Neville's eyes widen. He dropped to his knees.
" No...no no no no," he repeated. He put his head on the be and sobbed. All of sudden he was a cementry standing in black with everyone. He looked at the tombstone and saw
In loving memory of Annabelle Christine Hood. Sister, friend, and daughter. June 5th 1981- April 15 1995. All of sudden it was the battle of Hogwarts. He just killed the snake and Annabelle fell, this time Summer wasn't there to catch her. Time stopped and only Neville could move he walked over to the edge to see Annabelle's fingers just scraping the edge. Just as he looked over time moved and she was gone.
" Neville, you're too late," a familiar voice said he looked over and saw Annabelle's ghost.
* Nightmare over *
" NOOOO ! " Neville shot up screaming. He scared Annabelle awake. He was breathing heavily. Tears streamed down his face. Annabelle reached up gently touched him makings him jump.
" Bad dream ? " Annabelle asked worryingly as he looked at her. Without warning Neville scooped Annabelle in his arms and held her tight. Annabelle grabbed his hand and squeezed as they cuddled./ Neville had recently just woken up it was a chilly morning. He looked around and saw that it was sixth year. He slowly sat up rubbing his eyes. He saw a note on his desk, he grabbed it and read. ' She didn't make it '. His eyes widen, throwing on the weirdest clothes and began running out of his dorm and out of the common room. Tears fell down his face blinding him, causing him to run into someone. " Longbottoms is a hurry," Pansy sneered, Malfoy was right behind her, smirking. " Where did he hurt you Pansy ? " Malfoy asked cracking his knuckles. " My head," she said rubbing it. Malfoy walked closer to Neville ready to throw a punch. " Wait ! " Neville said bravely holding up his hands. " Why ? " Pansy snapped. " Can I go to the hospital wing first ? " Neville simply asked.
" I'm pretty sure Hood pants can wait," Malfoy sneered. " Please ! " Neville begged. " Why ?! She probably going wake up !" Pansy pointed out, Neville shook his head. " No, she didn't make it, Annabelle Hood is dead," Neville said as tears slipped down his face. The two looked at each other and let Neville go. He sprinted up to the hospital wig to find them covering Annabelle's body with a sheet and all her friends crying and holding each other. " Wait ! Can I see her one last time ? " Neville said walking towards the bed. Sprout and Pomfrey removed the sheet for Neville. He collapsed into a chair and held her dead cold hand. He put his head down to listen for a heart beat, there was none. He then broke down. " You can't be dead Bells, I need you, everyone needs you. Please come back, I am sorry for not talking to you, I need now so much. I want hear your heart beat and see your sweet smiled and eyes. I love you ". He kissed her lips before the sheet went back over her body. " Wake up ".

" Bad dream ? " Annabelle asked worryingly as he looked at her. Without warning Neville scooped Annabelle in his arms and held her tight. Annabelle grabbed his hand and squeezed as they cuddled.
" I don't think I can fall back asleep," Neville said as try laid there. Annabelle got up and ran to the kitchen. Few seconds later came back with two cups of hot chocolate. She handed a mug to Neville. " Thanks Bells," he breathed kissing her cheek.
" Anything," Annabelle said smiling.

It was the last week before Neville was leaving tomorrow for Hogwarts for work. It was a late night on a Thursday. Annabelle had just finished putting the dishes away. She turned around to see Neville walking back and forth in the hallway . He looked really frustrated as he was trying to prepare for the day he left not wanting to forget anything.
" Nev, you seem really frustrated," Annabelle said standing in the doorway.
" I am," he said rather quickly from the bedroom.
" Want to play a game to get your mind off it for now ? " Annabelle suggested.
" What kind of game ?" He asked poking his head out of the room.
" A fun game," Annabelle said slipping back inside the kitchen.
" What kind of fun game ?" He asked walking into the kitchen, he didn't see her. Neville turned around and still didn't see her. He poked his head out to see Annabelle slowly walking backwards to the bedroom. Neville cluelessly followed her with the door closing behind him. The frickle frackle happened.
***********************
The next morning Annabelle woke up to unpleasant feeling in her stomach. She got up and ran to the bathroom and puked. She puked a bit more then cleaned up and walked out. She walked into the bedroom to see Neville gone and note on the dresser. She walked over and read it.
Dear Bells,
Good morning love, I hope you slept well. I am going to be out with Dean he needed help watching the baby when Madelyn was going to the doctors for a check up.
Annabelle smiled before running to the bathroom to puke again. She reached into the girl needs draw and pulled out a pregnancy stick, it was hidden so Neville wouldn't find them. She did what she had to do them sat on the bathroom floor waiting for the results. She closed her eyes and opened them to see the result it was positive. Her hand came to her mouth.
" What is Neville going to say ? He's about to go leave for Hogwarts, at leasts it's his child," Annabelle asked herself. Annabelle wrapped the stick with toilet paper and tissue then threw it out. She washed her hands and exit the bathroom. Annabelle quickly walked to their bedroom,and found paper and pen she scribble on it then sent it to someone she knew she can trust and needed to talk to desperately. That person was Sandra. Alexis flew out and then a few minutes came back. Not even 20 minutes later there was knocking at the door. She quickly opened the door.
" Does he know ? " Sandra asked the minute the door opened.
" No, I just found out," Annabelle replied closing the door as Sandra walked in.
" When are you going to tell him ? " she asked as Annabelle handed her a cup of coffee.
" Soon," Annabelle answered taking a sip out of her cup.
" You shouldn't be drinking coffee," Sandra warned
" I'm not, just prepared if Neville comes home," Annabelle informed her showing the orange juice in the cup.
" He's going to notice something sooner or later ". They heard a pop and their eyes widened.
" Morning Bells, good to see you Sandra," Neville greeted.
" Hey Neville," they coursed staring at each other. He walked over and watched the two. Sandra's face said tell-him. Annabelle's face said not-yet. The two took a sip of their cups at the same time.
" Are you okay ? " Neville asked a bit scared.
" Yes," Annabelle said
" No," Sandra said
" Yes,"
" No,"
" Yes,"
" Bells has something to tell you," Sandra stated, Annabelle glared at her.
" What is it ? " Neville asked.
" I'm going to the store do you need anything ? " Annabelle asked looking at him. Sandra was now glaring at Annabelle.
" Not today, " Neville answered smiling.

Today was the day, Annabelle was going to tell Neville she was pregnant, it's been five days since she found out, and she running out of excuses. Neville got home late that night doing last minute things before he left. Annabelle gave him a cup of tea.
" Thanks," Neville said kissing her cheek.
" No problem," Annabelle said a bit nervously then a sip from her mug of orange juice.
" New mug ? " he asked looking at it.
" Yep," Annabelle said nervously. Neville read the wording in the mug. He read Best Daddy in the World. Neville's eyes widen then looked at Annabelle. His face was super serious.
" Please say something," Annabelle said. Neville slowly started to smile he got up and placed his hands on his head.
" I'm going to be a father. I'm going to be a dad," he repeated. Annabelle let out a breath. Neville put their mugs down and hugged her. He then realized and looked into her mug and saw orange juice.
