It's A Girl

My name is Lily Luna Potter. I am eighteen years old and I am pregnant with Lysander Scamander child. Not only am I pregnant, but I'm also in labour. Therefore, I'm in a shitload of pain.

"OW, DAMMIT! YOU SON OF A BITCH, LY!"

He is never getting into the funhouse again. This is not worth it.

"Sorry!" Lysander said with a frown looking at me like I had ten heads. "This is so weird."

"Weird?" I said through my seething teeth. "I should have let Teddy and Scorpius kill you!"

"I'm still up for it!" Teddy's voice cried from the waiting room.

"No!" Lily screamed. "My baby can't grow up without its daddy! Touch him and I'll kill you, Teddy!"

"Fine," Teddy grumbled. "Your off the hook for now!"

"THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS GOING ON RIGHT NOW!" Lily bellowed. Lysander winced and tried to say something, instead cut off by the Mediwitch.

"You only have two more inches, Miss. Potter," she stated calmly.

Lily groaned. "Only? How about you try pushing a watermelon out your vag!"

The woman simply smiled. "I have three kids and another due in seven months. Believe me, I know pain."

"Oh Jesus," Lily said with a groan. "I don't ever want to be you."

"You can start pushing soon," the Mediwitch said absently, dodging the pain-induced jab. "I'll go get the doctor."

"Now?" Lily asked with a whine. "I want this thing out of me!"

"All on good time, honey," Lysander said soothingly. Lily growled profanities at him - he swears up and down and sideways that she actually had steam coming out of her ears.

"Now?" Lily asked as she saw a doctor coming the room

"Now," he confirmed. He sat himself between her legs and rested his hands on her knees. "Alright, I'm going to need you to push, hard."

"Really?" Lily said in-between breaths. "I thought you would do it lightly!" she screamed as she pushed as hard as she could.

"How long will this go on?" Lysander exclaimed, horrified.

The same woman before informed him loudly, "Some women in labour could go on for hours."

"Hours?" Lily screamed. Lysander looked ready to faint.

The Mediwitch smiled. "I'm kidding darlin', it won't be long now, just a few more pushes."

"Oh, thank Godric!" Lily gasped. Sweat was dripping down her face like raindrops. How had Grandma gone through this seven times?

"Alright... One more push," the doctor said with a smile and Lily pushed the last time.

It was with one last push that the room was filled with a baby's cry.

"Oh my god," Lysander murmured as the doctor showed him his newborn, "it's a girl!"

"Lemme see her," Lily said with a smile.

Lysander obliged and handed Lily their baby. Lily's arms cradled her tiny head perfectly as Ly cooed into her small hands.

"She's so perfect," Ly whispered, voice cracking as his eyes welled with unshod tears.

"What do you want to call her?" Lysander asked placing a kiss on the top of Lily's head.

Lily blinked slowly, mind still foggy. "What about Luna for her middle name? After me and your mother."

Lysander nodded happily. "I'd like that. What do you think of the name Mai?"

"Mai Luna," said Lily. She liked how it sounded, and quite a lot. She could see herself running around with a baby named Mai proudly. "I like it. Mai Luna Lysander."

Lysander smiled looking at Lily and his baby girl. Maybe a good thing came out of their one night stand after all.
