Lily's POV

"Are you sure..? I mean, he will freak." I told him.

"Yes. Think about it, until we find a way to break it to everybody else, we're going to need someone to cover for us, Lils." He replied, his turquoise hair darkening ever so slightly. I struggled not to smile. If Teddy had a weakness, it was that he couldn't keep his emotions from showing through his metamorphmagus abilities.

"Alright," I consented. It was true, after all. Besides, Albus was the calmer of her two brothers. If they were to tell James, well... he would probably murder Teddy or something.

"Okay. After dinner, then?"

I took a deep breath, and said, "After dinner."

That night was one of the many that Teddy joined the Potters for dinner. Teddy and I somehow ended up sitting next to each other, which was kind of awkward, considering our plan to tell Albus after dinner.

Finally, after what seemed like hours, dinner ended. James was the first to leave, running up to his room to play some video game. Then Dad went to his study to work on his report for work, while Mom worked on cleaning up.

"Hey, Al?" I said, before he managed to go to his room.

"Yeah, Lils?"

"C-Can we talk to you?" I summoned up my courage, before I backed out or something.

"Yeah, sure, of course." He replied, obviously confused about my anxiousness. "So, what did you guys wanna talk about?"

"Uh- um- I- that is, to say- we... er, we... we're..."

"Oh, forget this," Teddy said, effectively cutting me off. "We're dating."

"Um- er- I- Well, what he said." I finished lamely, carefully watching my shell-shocked brother.

"What?! Did I hear that right? Tell me I didn't hear that right!" He hissed, looking back and forth from Teddy to me.

"Well," Teddy began. Oh great... What's he going to do now?! "Just in case you didn't, I-said. We're-dating. As in, we are dating. Like, Lily, and I, are in a relationship." He sounded out every syllable.

"Teddy!" I exclaimed. "I am pretty sure he heard you the first time!"

"Just making sure." He replied cockily.

"Oh, forget you. Al, you cannot tell anyone, you hear me? Not Mom, not Dad, not James, not our friends, not anybody!" I hissed at him.

"O-Okay... but, how? Why?"

"We don't know."

"Oh, shut it, you." I told Teddy. "We like each other, that's why."

"Oh... okay, I guess. But, why are you telling me?"

"Because, James would kill him, Dad would go all protective-Dad on me, Mom would freak and as a result tell somebody, and our friends would tease us endlessly leading up to the eventual fact of Mom, Dad, James, you, and practically everybody else finding out." I stated matter-of-factly.

"Okay, but, why tell anyone at all? If it's supposed to be secret?"

"Well, we figured somebody needed to know." I started. "Why not you? You would be the most helpful, or, at the very least, the calmest about it."

"Okay, but, Teddy?"

"Yeah?"

"Hurt her? I might need to go to Azkaban." He threatened. I face-palmed.

"Yes, sir." Teddy replied, saluting. Which, of course, was ruined by his hair turning bright yellow. He really needed to control his emotions!

Okay, this was a response to the "We're In A Relationship" Challenge by selenehekate. I asked for her to give me a random pairing to tell a random person, and I got Teddy/Lily II telling Albus. I might do another, because she/he also gave me the pairing of James I/Lily I telling Remus... so keep your eyes open for that too, okay?
