The eighteen year old Lily Luna Potter grabbed her eldest brother s arm and tried to pull him off of the father of her unborn child. James! Please! Stop it! She yelled as she tugged at his sleeve. Leave him alone. James had the guy pinned up against the wall in his anger. He had heard Lily talking to her baby s father and this had caused him to burst into the room unexpectedly. He had always been protective of his little sister and to find out she was pregnant and hit him hard. He had known of her pregnancy for a month or so now, but hadn't known who the father was. As far as he was aware, they were not going to be a part of the baby or Lily s life any more. Lily was planning on giving the child up for adoption. Or at least that's what James had thought until he had overheard the conversation.

The blonde boy who James had pinned against the wall looked shocked. He was tall, taller than James but he didn't struggle, he seemed to have resigned himself to the matter at hand - for the minute anyway. A second later he began to struggle against Jame's hold. "Let go of me! I demand it!" His voice was rough but the terror leaking from his voice caused it to climb laughably in pitch.

"You - you demand it?" James gave a short laugh. "You demand it?" He slammed Scorpius against the wall again. Lily grabbed James' arm, only for James to push her back. Lily stumbled backwards, but thankfully caught herself before she could fall. James froze. "Shit. I'm sorry." He quickly dropped Scorpius and turned to his sister.
Scorpius caught himself and took a step forward motioning to step to Lily's side, he spoke as he walked, angrily "I demanded it before you did something stupid! Look what you've done you almost hurt her.." His voice dropped and filled with an unrecognizable emotion as Scorpius lost his fierce glare which had been fixated on James "...and the baby." He looked shocked, confused by what he'd just said and looked worriedly at Lily for her reaction.
Lily's eyes dropped to the floor. "We're okay." She said quietly. "I promise you, we're okay." James stood there, with wide eyes. This was a side of both his sister and of Malfoy that he had never seen before.
Brushing his pale hair from his equally white face, he hesitatingly placed one hand around Lily before grabbing her hand with the remaining hand a moment later. He kept his eyes on James as though he was afraid of being attacked again.
Lily tried to relax as she looked up at her brother. "It might seem like we don't know what we're doing, but I'm not a kid any more."
Scorpius nodded gravely but didn't speak, choosing instead to grip Lily's hand tighter and pull her close. With a poignant glare from James he spoke reluctantly "She's right, we're not kids anymore."
James rolled his eyes. "Yeah. Right. Sure. She's only just turned eighteen, Malfoy!" He yelled.
" YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW THAT?! I DIDN'T MEAN FOR THIS TO HAPPEN!" Scorpius yelled with a force that shocked the others, feeling Lily flinch under his arm Malfoy stopped suddenly and stared at the floor when he spoke again his voice was quiet, and much softer, but there was no mistaking the angry tone. "We... We... Didn't mean for this to happen."
Lily took a deep breath as she pulled away from Scorpius. She sat on the bed, crossing her legs underneath her. "Trust me, I didn't plan this. I only just managed to get that job..." She sighed. "I just -" She trailed off. "You just - you don't understand." James frowned. "What? What don't I understand?"
