I've got a secret
Characters: Zach and Debi
Summary: Zach finds out Debi's news

Zach looked up when Hawkins banged through his office door. It was odd, and not a bit disconcerting, to see the man grinning like he'd just won the Daily Prophet Galleon draw.

"Right then. What's got you so chipper?" He asked by way of greeting.

"Oh nothing, just your next case. Woman just came in oozing from just about everywhere. I'd take it, but I'm about to go on break," he joked, tossing the chart onto Zach's desk.

"What d'you mean, break? You just got here," Zach grumbled the last of it because Hawkins had already turned and left his office with nothing more than a handwave in farewell.

Zach sighed and looked at the file. "Bloody piker. Always did hate the oozing ones. Probably off to hide in the tea room until he's sure she's gone."

He took a moment to increase the protection charms over his clothes and hands, then picked up the chart. He gasped. The moment he touched the parchment he'd felt a pull just behind his navel and, in his surprise, it took him a few seconds to fumble his wand out of the inside pocket of his robes. With everything that'd been going on lately, he wasn't about to arrive wherever the Portkey was taking him unarmed and unprepared.

His landing wasn't easy, not having taken a Portkey in a while, and he stumbled a few steps before righting himself. Prepared for anything, or so he told himself, he did a quick 360 degree turn to figure out where he was. The frown formed almost at once.

He was in a resort. Calypso music was light on the air and he could feel the warm breeze as it ruffled his hair.

"...the hell?"

"We can just cuddle if you like, see what happens." Debi batted her eyes at him, squared her shoulder so her ever-so-slightly bigger chest was on display. "Then again, aren't you supposed to be indulging me now? I mean, I am having our baby, and that should count for something - "

Our baby. It was the first time she'd said it anyone, and the mere thought was enough to make her giddy.

"Next thing I know I'll be heading out at 2 am for pumpkin juice and pickled doxy eggs, hmm?"

He tugged off his shirt and tossed it into the corner of the room. With a wide smile, he joined her on the bed and pushed gently at her shoulders until she was laying beneath him. After one long, lingering look into her eyes, he lowered his head and kissed the soft rise of her abdomen. "Our baby," he whispered against her skin, "I like the sound of that. A lot."

	"So do I," whispered Debi. She shivered at the kiss to her belly and pulled him close. "So do I." (Reply to this) (Parent)
