Disclaimer: I do not own anything that has to do with the Harry Potter world, sadly.
A/N: This is my first one shot soooooo LOL let's see how this turns out, yeah?
A very pregnant Lily Evans Potter sat in her home in Godric's Hollow, alone. James, her husband, was out on a mission for the order. Normally, she would be with him, but since she was 8, almost 9 months pregnant, he forbade her from doing anything even remotely dangerous. Lily had first sighed and half-heartedly tried to convince him otherwise, but deep down, she was happy that she wasn't doing anything to put her child in danger, never mind her. After all, her family was the single most important thing in her life right now.
James has been on the mission for the Order of the Phoenix for three weeks. Remus and Sirius always stopped by to make sure everything was okay, of course, but between SIrius's hours in the auror offices, and Remus working full time for Dumbledore, she hardly saw them, as they checked on her while she was sleeping. Lily, when she found out she was pregnant, convinced Alastor Moody, the top auror in the ministry, to give her a desk job.
After going through all her files for work, Lily found that she had left the most important one at her desk. Sighing heavily, she gets up and wobbles, yes she wobbled, over to the fireplace, grabbed a handful of Floo Powder, tossed it in, before stepping her herself and yelling, "Ministry of Magic." Loud and clearly. After stumbling out and swearing quite loudly, she subconsciously places a hand on her stomach. A pair of strong arms catch her as she stumbles.
"Alright there, Evans?" Comes Sirius's voice.
"In case you forgot, it's Potter now." Lily grumbles.
Sirius chuckles lowly. "How could I forget?" He says, gesturing to her large stomach. She smacks his arm lightly, "Oh shut it." Lily smiles. Sirius smiles back and walks her to her desk protectively, like a big brother. "Any word on James?" She bites her lip hopefully. After all, she missed him. God she missed him so much. When they finally reach her cubicle, a handsome man with a large bouquet of flowers steps out with a lopsided grin on his face. Lily stands stunned for a moment before pulling out her wand, carefully.
"What are we naming the baby if it's a girl?" Lily asked their security question.
You could never be too careful these days. James smiles and runs a hand through his hair.
"Emily Marie Potter." He says before opening his arms. With tears in her eyes, she runs, or walks as quickly as she can, to him and throws her arms around his waist, soaking his shirt.
"Please don't ever leave me again." By now, Sirius had left them alone for the reunion with a knowing grin on his face. James hugs her tightly to his chest, kissing the top of her head lovingly.
"Never again, Lily. Never again." He promises, and she knows he means it.
A/N: Yay! James is back! Please review! It's my first time writing so please don't be too hard on me hahahaha.
