Thea felt numb.
Everything was gone.
She touched her stomach, the slight bump was no longer there.
Her baby was gone.
She was gone.
She was gone.
She could no longer protect James.
She couldn't protect Sirius.
She couldn't protect Lily.
She couldn't protect Remus.
She couldn't protect Peter.
She couldn't protect baby Harry.
She couldn't protect her Andromeda.
"Are you alright?"
Thea was met with the dazzling eyes of Marlene McKinnon
"Thea, let me help you up."
She complied, still shaking, still sobbing, still numb.
"Come here."
They sat in each other's arms for an eternity.
For once, they had time.
