Stephen smiled. "Yeah, sorry, I wasn't thinking." He laced his fingers with Adrian, squeezing his fingers. "Trust me, baby. I wouldn't put myself in danger senselessly. I wouldn't do it to you, but there is no one else. Who can go in there? You, Snape, Draco and me. I know you are smart men, but you can't do it. It won't take me long, and Snape would be there, and we could always Apparate away. Trust me to do the right thing."
He hugged Adrian tighter. "Shh, baby, it's all right. I'm not going anywhere, and if we do this, I'd be going with Snape, but man knows how to stay alive. Come on, love, I'm not leaving you alone, I promise." He kissed Adrian's cheek. "We'll discuss having children some other time. Don't worry about anything now. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, baby; I didn't mean to upset you."
