Dark Winter Night

[Shelby Chou]

Shelby walks down the highstreet, ignoring the few people that were on the road. She knew that she shouldn't be there, especially that late at night. It was somewhat windy and snowing, but she didn't care. She needed to get out of the house, since whenever she would smile at her stomach, Jay would just sigh or look away.

"I don't care what he says. I will still love this baby, even if it isn't his..." she mutters, sitting down under a streetlight, also ignoring the fact that it was flickering and the ground was cold and damp. She rubs her hands together, just when the light diminishes from the source. "Figures." she says reaching for her wand in her robes.

[Jay Chou]

Jay pulled his jacet closer around himself, looking around the dark street. He had waken up in the night, and went around to allt he rooms checking on everyone. Jay knew it was dark times and he had to make sure everyone was okay. Shelby just didn't get why he was like..Like how he was now. He did his best, but under what has happened he's being very forgiveing.
But when he had gone by Shelby's room, she wasn't there.
Jay automaticly freaked out and had been serching around for her. He knew that that nothing was wrong..He was just worried about her.
"you married, and are in love with a very stupid, stupid woman Jay Chou." He muttered to himself, still looking around the dark street, trying to find her. All the street lamps were out and he couldn't find her. At all. It didn't help his worry scale.

[Shelby Chou]

Shelby hears someone walking down the highstreet, instantly tensing up and drawing her wand, "Lumos." she whispers, making just enough light to make the area around her bright, watching for anyone suspicous that might attack her.

[Jay Chou]

Jay see's a light over a bit away and he quickens his steps, but pulls out his wand. As he gets closer the breath he had been holding in, he lets out slowly and loosens up. "You're the reason I saw a gray hair this morning." He muters to her. Jay hadn't seen any gray hair, but he wanted to make a point. "You're going to be the death of me one of these days. And it's going to be an early death." He says sitting next to her. Why did she have to worry him like this?

[Shelby Chou]

She looks at the ground, not muttering a word. She felt that he still didn't forgive her, and didn't like the way that he looked at her stomach. Would she tell him this? No. She felt as if she had to keep things away from him right now. It hurt her so much that he just noticed that she was gone. Her eyes were cold and dark, not the usual bright and shimmering that he was used to.

[Jay Chou]

"Been out here for hours Shell.." he muttered. "I had even went to the tower. Thought you might have been there." He said looking over to her. "But then you weren't, that was when I had first looked for you. I even apparated to Diagon Alley."

[Shelby Chou]

She sighs deeply, out of frustation and anger. "And? What do you want me to say? I can protect myself." I say to him still not looking at him.

[Jay Chou]

"I know you can. Doesn't stop those psyco's that are twice your size from sneaking up on you. You won't have time to protect yourself."

[Shelby Chou]

"Thanks for the confidence in your wife there Jay." I say standing up and walking over to a store window.

[Jay Chou]

"Sorry. Next time I won't be as stupid to be worried about you, because. Oh, um, maybe I love you?" He says bitterly. "I just don't want you to get hurt, and remeber what happened to our baby? Huh? I don't want that to happen to this baby."

[Shelby Chou]

I turn around rolling my eyes. "Like you care about this baby it's not yours!" I say just as bitterly. Just then, a deatheater comes up behind me. "Hello Rubi. The dark lord has been expecting you..." He grabs me and pulls me tight to him, his wand tracing my veins in my neck. "Which one Rubi...

[Jay Chou]

Jay goes over to the death eater pulling his wand out and pointing right at his forehead. "Let her go..." He growls to the man, grabbing onto Shelby's hand but very subtle so the man doesn't see it.

[Shelby Chou]

I don't think so. You're in no position to demand anything." he says to Jay, his lips curling into a smirk. Shelby holds Jay slightly, not letting her tears fall from her eyes.

[Jay Chou]

"Let her go..." Jay orders again, and give her hand a reassureing squeeze before letting go and moving it slowly. As soon as the moment was right he grabbed onto the mans wand arm and, making sure Shell was out of the way, he twisted the mans arm behind his back and snapped the mans wand with his free hand. "Shelby, go."

[Shelby Chou]

I stare at him, shocked. "No. I'm not leaving you with him." I yell at Jay.

[Jay Chou]

Jay can feel then man sturggling and Jay has to tighten his grip. "Shelby. Go." Jay says firmly. "Go back with the kids." He says. "JUst get away from here. I'm not having what happened to our baby to this one. I'm not going to let that happen. Go now!"

[Shelby Chou]

She looked at him and nod, running off to the house. Once she got home she paced waiting for him to return.

[Jay Chou]

After about an hour of two jay walks into the house. He has a few cuts on his arms, pretty deep. His nose is bleeding and he's limping slightly on his left leg.

[Shelby Chou]

She gasps when she sees him. "Jay!" she runs over to his aide helping into the kitchen. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"

[Jay Chou]

"You didn't do this to me, no need to say sorry." He mutters wincing slightly.

[Shelby Chou]

"I know, but I feel like I did. He was after me, not you." I say cleaning up his cuts.
