A/N: I got struck with inspiration as I soaked in the bath tub this morning. I hope you enjoy it.

Disclaimer: I do not own. K? Good.

Morning Sickness

Lily tumbled out of bed when a wave of nausea swept over her. She barely made it to the bathroom before she lost last night's dinner.

When James woke up to an empty bed and heard sobbing in the bathroom, he decided to investigate.

"Why do they call it morning sickness when it lasts all bloody day?" Lily grumbled, trying to keep her dignity, though she may have already lost it.

James watched as she leaned over the toilet, trying to hold her hair out of the way. It had really grown impossibly long, but James refused to let her cut it, saying he preferred it that way.

When they got into bed that night, Lily was flushed and irritable, James was tired and the day had been longer than it would have been on a regular day.

"Lily, I think they call it 'Morning Sickness' for wont of a better term," James said softly, not sure if she cared to hear it.

"Maybe they should call it 'All-day Sickness'. That way it sounds worse than Morning," Lily grumbled, curling into his side.

Suddenly her stomach lurched and she leapt out bed. It was going to be a long night, James thought, sighing.

A/N: sorry its short, but I'm trying to keep up with the trend I obviously started with the first two. It's at least 230 words tops. But anyway, please review!
