Isabella took the baby in her arms, tears blurring her view of her baby. "Hi, Bubble," she whispered, cradling the baby close to her. "Oh... is it a..." She looked at the baby for a minute, then checked the blanket as it turned a pale blue. "Oh... it's a... it's a boy!" she gasped, smiling. "He's a boy... my son... He's so beautiful..." She cuddled him and pressed a kiss to his soft forehead. Then she slipped the collar of her dressing gown down and put the baby to her bosom. He fumbled, then began to suckle. Isabella could hardly see through her tears.

"And he's the first baby to be born in Hogwarts in nearly two centuries." said Poppy as she wrote down all the details of the baby and his birth. "What's his name Isabella?" Asked Poppy as she laid down her quill to look at Isabella and her baby, they were both doing well at the moment.

Isabella hesitated. She couldn't look away from the baby as he nursed. "Well... I'd like to name him Conor," she said. "But I suppose I should wait for Voltaire..." She laughed as the baby hiccuped in his enthusiasm. "Oh, to heck with him. He didn't give birth, I did. He can pick the middle name. Let's just call him Conor for now." She smiled and kissed the baby's forehead again.

Poppy laughed and wrote down the name and left a space next to it on her paper work. "He's beautiful Isabella." Poppy finished cleaning Isabella with a few charms and announced "Well you're labor and birth are all done!" she shifted Isabella's bed into a more laid down position but still inclined for her to sit up. "If you need to lie down, just tell me and I'll put the baby to rest next to you." she said gently.

Conor had yet to open his eyes, but he forced them open and looked up at the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. He felt so tired, it was still too cold where he was... everything was loud, but that sound, he knew that sound when the pretty thing moved.

"Thanks, Poppy," Isabella said distractedly. She continued to stare down in wonder at her son, filling her heart overflow with love. As he opened his eyes and looked up at her, she wanted to cry with joy. "Hi, Conor," she said softly. "I'm your mommy."

Conor closed his eyes and thought "Ah, that's what the pretty thing is, a Mommy." he thought sleeply. everything looked so strange, except for the Mommy.

Isabella sighed happily and touched the baby's soft cheek with her finger. "You're so perfect... I've never seen anything so beautiful," she breathed. "We're going to take good care of you. And I'm never, ever going to let anything happen to you." She knew in that instant, that she would fight Voldemort herself with her bare hands if she had to, to protect him.

Emily smiled as Conor was born. "He's adorable," said Emily with a smile. "I know that Voltaire will be proud."

Isabella smiled. "Thanks, Emily," she said, not looking away from the baby. "And thanks for being here."

"It's no problem," said Emily. "I guess I made pretty good timing. I didn't know that you were going into labor or anything. I promised the doctor at St. Mungo's that I'd come here this morning since he let me go yesterday, and I figured that after I checked in with Poppy, I'd come visit you," she said. "But I'm glad I came when I did," she said with a smile.

"I'm glad you came when you did, too," Isabella sighed happily. "It helped having you here. It would have been better to have Voltaire here, but he had to go after Natalie. I hope everything's OK." She cuddled Conor closer to her, trying to silence the fear in her head that her child might not get to know his father.

Emily smiled down at Conor. "Everything will be okay. You know that. Voltaire will make sure of it," said Emily. "Hey Poppy? Can I go ahead and get checked over before I forget about it?"

"Sure," Poppy said to Emily. "Isabella, just let me know if you need to sleep. I have a bassinet set up right near your bed if you need me to take him, OK?" She smiled and took Emily by the arm, leading her into a private area. "OK, dear, please tell me what happened again."

Emily walked along with Poppy. "Well, at first I was hit with sectumsempra then I was thrown into a wall," said Emily.

Poppy nodded. "OK, let's check you over. Why don't you lie down, dear?" She pointed to a bed over in the corner.

"OK," said Emily as she headed towards the bed that Poppy pointed out. Emily laid down on the bed.

Poppy walked over and took out her wand. "Now, dear, where were you hit with the Sectumsempra curse?"
