AN-Thank you to my lovely reviewers! This chapter doesn't have any smut in it, but I think it's still good. Tell me what you think, and let me know where you'd like this to go!

James walked into his dorm and flopped down onto his bed. He knew the other boys would be returning from the Shrieking Shack any time, and they would want to know why he hadn't come with them. He really didn't want to tell them what had actually happened with Lily, because he wanted to save her dignity. He had a few minutes to come up with a convincing story. Maybe detention with Slughorn? Or he was caught sneaking down to the Whomping Willow and couldn't go for fear of exposing the others? Either one would suit him just fine.

He thought about his night with Lily, and how much he loved her. He would never have let himself go that far with her, but she could have gone as far as she wanted. He would have let her do anything, but there was a certain point where he would have stopped if she had not told him to continue. He knew that he was going to marry Lily Evans someday. Even with all of the evil in the world and the dark times they were in, he knew that she was the one girl he couldn't live without.

Lily lay on her bed, much in the same fashion as James. She was replaying the night in her mind. Her roommates were already asleep, so she didn't have to explain why she was so late returning from her rounds. She thought about marriage, and about a family. But she was a bit shocked when a thought crossed her mind. It made her smile, and she couldn't wait to tell it to James. When we have our own house, we're going to have sex in every room, on every surface.

It was only when she continued on that line that she remembered something. James hadn't used any protection. Her heart picked up it's pace and she sat up in bed. What if I get pregnant? I can't be pregnant at Hogwarts! It's our seventh year, I have NEWTS coming up, jobs to apply for….I just can't get pregnant!

The next morning, Lily woke up, remembering that it was the day of the Hogsmeade trip. She would have to find some time to sneak away and buy a pregnancy test. She reached to pull the curtains from around her bed and found a note lying on her bedside table. Lily, please meet me in the Room of Requirement before breakfast. I love you. James

Thinking that now would be the perfect time to talk to him, she quickly showered and dressed. She practically ran to the Room of Requirement and was disappointed to find it empty. She waited only a few minutes before James showed up.

"Lily…" He began, but she cut him off.

"Did you use a Contraceptive Charm?"

"What?" James had no idea where this was coming from. He'd wanted to talk to her about marriage, not kids.

"Did you use a Contraceptive Charm or a condom or something?"

He could feel her panic as if it was his own. He was trying to remember, trying to convince himself that he had used some form of protection last night….but for the life of him, he honestly didn't know.

"Oh….my….god….James. Do you know of a spell that would tell me whether or not I'm pregnant?"

"No, but I know where we might find one. Library."

James grabbed her hand, and after one quick kiss, they sprinted to the library. They skidded to a stop just outside of it, and calmly walked in. They had no clue where to start looking. It definitely wouldn't be in the history section, nor the Muggle section. Hit with a sudden brainstorm, James turned to Lily and said, "What if I asked Slughorn?"

"WHAT?! You want to ask the teacher who thinks I'm brilliant if there's a spell that will let me know if I'm PREGNANT? Are you insane?"

"No! If I go to him, maybe hang back after class or something…and ask him if there's a way to know whether or not a girl is pregnant, just in case, you know…act real cocky and arrogant…put on a show so he doesn't know it's you…do you think he'd tell me?"

"James, I have no idea, but if we don't find out soon…I think I'll die. Not knowing is worse than if I'm really pregnant."

James promised to ask him that day, and they went down to breakfast. The eggs and sausage weren't appealing to either of them. James leaned his head in next to Lily's ear.

"You know, I didn't ask you to meet me to talk about last night. I wanted to talk about the rest of our lives. I want you to marry me, Lily Evans. I want to change your last name to mine, and if you are pregnant, I want this child to grow up with us both there."

Lily's smile had grown bigger with each word James said. She knew that now was the perfect time to tell him her thought from last night, because he couldn't act on it, and he would be thinking about it all day long. She reached her hand down to his upper thigh, and whispered into his ear, "James, when we have a house of our own, we're going to have sex in every room, on every surface."

With a little squeeze of his thigh and a quick peck on his check, she stood up and walked away, seemingly on her way to her first class. He yelled across the Great Hall so loud he was sure even the teachers heard, "Lily Evans, you are the meanest girl in Hogwarts!"

"Aww, man, she didn't turn you down again, did she James?" Sirius asked as he plopped down in the seat Lily had just left and started shoveling food into his mouth.
