zeno

arianna riddle

3 months later..

I wake up and reach over for Enzo, but he's not there.

He was supposed to come back in the morning.

He had to leave the manor to transform, but he usually comes back around 6 am.

I get up and walk over to Zeno's crib to check up on him.

He's still swaddled, but wide awake looking at the ceiling.

I pick him up and walk out of the room, as I'm walking out I see Lucille leaving Draco's room as well.

She catches up to me and we walk down the stairs together, she looks over at Zeno and I, and admires him.

"How's the baby?" She asked as we reached the end of the staircase.

I glance at her, then look back down at Zeno.

"He's surprisingly really good. He hardly ever cries," I say as I look back up and her.

We walk into the kitchen together and I walk over to the fridge as she sits down on a swivel bar stool.

I open the fridge and take out a bottle full of breast milk.

I shake it for a couple of seconds, then start feeding him.

"Is Draco excited?" I asked as I sat down next to her.

"Very, we've been coming up with names already, but we haven't found the right one yet."

I nod, as I start rocking Zeno.

I look out the window and see Enzo laying down on the floor.

"Can you...hold Zeno for a second, Lucille," I ask as I stand up.

"Sure," she replied and gently took Zeno out of my arms.

I didn't really want her to hold him, but it was too cold outside for Zeno.

I walked outside and saw Enzo laying down on the floor, asleep, with his clothes torn up.

I kneeled down next to him, "Enzo, Enzo darling, wake up. You're outside," I whisper.

He jolts up and rubs his face.

"It was so exhausting last night," he groaned as he rested his head on my shoulder, "Where's Zeno?" He mumbled.

"He's inside with Lucille," I reply and he nods.

I stand up and put my hand out for Enzo to grab.

He grabs my hand and I pull him up.

He pulls me closer to him and kisses me.

We slowly pull away and walk back inside.

Lucille's still feeding Zeno.

Enzo walks over to them, and Lucille hands him Zeno.

"Oh, I've missed you," He whispered to Zeno as he kissed his forehead.

....

We all finished breakfast and Lucille, Draco, Narcissa, Lorenzo, Zeno and I were all downstairs in the living room.

Zeno was asleep, but he was still downstairs with us because Lorenzo didn't want to leave him upstairs all alone.

Draco was holding Zeno, he's been really attached to him.

"Lucille," Narcissa blurted as she took a sip of her wine, "How are you feeling?"

"Good" She lowly responded and looked over at Zeno.
