Bertram!
Being pregnant had not ruined all of Bianca's routines. Sure, she couldn't get in the exercise she wanted, and of course her wardrobe had to change drastically, but a lot of things still stayed the same. Like! Like the fact that she could not sleep past six o'clock in the morning. And that was her late day. If she had been on regular rounds at the hitwizard office, Bianca would be up at five-fifteen (those extra fifteen minutes helped). She'd have to make breakfast, do her workout, shower, get dressed, and make it to the offices for early morning reps and practices. Now that she was officially on maternity leave and with not even paperwork to do, being up at six in the morning left her with very little to do but clean and wave her wand around moving furniture and messes into their new and proper places.

She wouldn't bother waking Bertram before eight, though, which was understand and probably still a bit annoying. He had his morning routines and she'd work hers around his, that was compromise. He had been amazing lately, what with staying at her place and making sure she didn't get stuck between the couch cushions (which happened way more than she ever thought it could!). Bertram had really been the perfect boyfriend these past few months, and that was why she was going all out with breakfast today. Sure, a big reason for slipping out of bed was that her back had been killing her all night and she couldn't even try to stay in bed, plus Bertram wouldn't be up for another hour and a half, but there were warming spells for that-----

Her hand shot down to press against her stomach as a pain struck across it, causing her other hand to grab onto the counter and knock over the bowl of eggs she just whisked. Bianca's face contorted in confusion, staring down at the tiles of the kitchen.

"Uh oh," she whispered, trying to keep herself relaxed, but feeling her heart begin to race faster and faster with each passing second.

"Funny story," she said, not taking on a tone of amusement at all as she gripped onto Bertram's hands, unable to look him in the eye because if she did, then she would have to seriously consider what could actually be going on here. Her healers had told her that her due date wasn't official, that she should take it easy from now on, but this was not cool. This was not cool. Not cool at all! "I think I may be having----"

Nope. Couldn't say it. Bertram was going to have to figure it out all on his own because Bianca was not going to admit that she may be in you-know-what because that meant that in a few hours she would be having a baby and a baby would have to come home with her and then she'd have to be a mum and what the fuck did she know about being a mother? Amissa bossed her around most of the time, what was she going to do with a baby that couldn't tell her what to do?

"You know. Those---things that---happen," she stuttered, letting out a shaky, shaky breath, "But for real. For real, this time because these just----are real, they're real." How she knew these were real was beyond her, but Bianca guessed it was the absolute feeling of terror that stuck her at this moment that hadn't before in her previous false alarms.

The fact that she could be completely fine fighting Voldemort's armies but not fine having a child was -- well, he supposed it was understandable. She was used to that, used to killing people who were trying to kill her -- but having a baby was a completely alien concept to her.

"--contractions?" From the pamphlet that he'd read over from the healers more times than he could count on both hands (but enough that the edges of the paper had started to become very worn) that meant that she was going to be going into labour, which meant she was actually going to be having their baby soon.

Another baby. At least he'd be -- well, practiced -- for this one. He'd know what to do, and he probably wouldn't get peed on again. That had been fun. This was all new for Bianca, though, and he had to give her a break for that.

"So, uh. We should probably get your bag of stuff and head to St. Mungo's." Because he didn't want her to have to deliver the baby -- That would be too much even for him and he didn't want to even think about that. He didn't bother to ask if she was sure or not - he was pretty sure that would get him punched.
