I didn't put this in the first chapter, but this is the future of my first fanfic that is still in progress, A Lily's Scorpion (please read it =) So there are some spoilers...whoops.
I quickly get off the couch and out of James' arms to help her in the kitchen. I follow after her passing through two more rooms till we reach the kitchen. It's huge! There are three ovens that line the walls, two stoves, two dishwashers and a very large sink. She throws me an apron and we get to work. Part way through making baked ziti my curiosity gets the better of me and a start asking questions.
"Scorpius is your husband, right? So how did you get together?" I ask her making some light conversation.
(A/N okay if you want you can skip this paragraph if you are reading a Lily's Scorpion because this has spoilers! You have been warned...)
"I met him near the black lake during my third year. I was attacked by a hired death eater by the name of Greyback. Scorpius saved me for the first time that day. We became close friends and on my fourteenth birthday we kissed for the first time. We were always together after that. My family had a hard time imagining me with a boy since I'm the youngest of all my cousins and siblings. At the end of my fifth year I almost died and he told me he loved me for the first time. After he left Hogwarts I was pretty lonely. He was perusing his classical music career. Once I graduated I went into healing and in two years became a healer and helped my cousin open up a shop in Hogsmeade. Right after graduation Scorpius purposed and we got married six months ago. I'll be turning twenty one in a little over a month," she answers me.
I timer goes off and she pulls out brownies and a brisket from two of the ovens. I can smell the ziti cooking in the last oven. Lily Luna quickly moves over to the stove and takes off rice, spaghetti, mashed potatoes and beans. "Are we feeding an army?" I question her and she just smiles.
"You've never fed a bunch of teenage boys, have you? On top of that I know my brother and Kyle will eat a little bit of everything, (again some spoilers) and Izzy pregnant with twins, so I guess I'm feeding an army," she replies moving everything into the dining room next to the kitchen. The table looks like it will only feed two people.
Lily Luna quickly whips out her wand and enlarges the table to the point where it stretches from one side of the room to the other. Then she silently enchants all the food and dishes to take their places at the table.
"Why didn't you cook the food with magic?" I ask her politely. And she shrugs her shoulders. "It tastes better without using magic," she answers quietly.
She leads me back to the sitting room right as the door opens and a male voice comes from the doorway. "Lily, love, I'm home," he sounds like he is completely in love with her. "I'm in the sitting room," she calls back to him and when he enters he doesn't even looked fazed by the fact that there are people from the past here.
"So who did it, James or Sirius?" Is the very first thing he asks Lily Luna.
"It was Sirius," she replies laughing slightly at the comment. I turn to Sirius who looks appalled.
"It was Moony's fault! He knocked into me!" Sirius says pointing to Remus for emphasis. Lily Luna motions for Scorpius to sit while the arguing starts.
"It wasn't my fault! Padfoot, your butter fingers caused you to drop it not me!" Remus retorts. Then both boys turn to James.
"Prongs, mate, this one is all your fault. If you had stopped Moony and I from colliding and not flirting with Lily-flower none of this would have happened," Sirius accuses James and he just looks incredulously at his friends.
"Break it up! By the sounds of this story, it seems that this entire thing is an accident. So, all of you need to calm down," Lily Luna rationally explains to the boys. All the boys look at each other and start laughing over some inside joke or something.
CRACK-CRACK-CRACK
"Knock! Knock! I bring slack loaf!" A male voice says from outside. What the heck is slack loaf?
"Coming," Lily Luna replies walking to the door and greeting the guests. I assume these guests are Izzy, Kyle, and James. The first to walk in is Izzy since she is the only girl and the only one carry twins. The next to walk in is a male with strawberry blonde hair that covers most of his crystal blue eyes. The last person to walk in is the spitting image of James. Right down to the glasses.
"I'm Isabel, but you can call me Izzy. The blonde is my husband Kyle and the git to my left is James Sirius Potter. I'm trying to get you a new time turner, but it will take a week at least. I'm really sorry for the delay," she tells us and Lily Luna calls us for dinner. The trio goes to the dining room quickly while Scorpius is kind enough to wait for us and lead us into the dining room.
"This place is pretty big, it's easy to get lost if you're not used to it here," he says keeping the mood light when we enter the dining room. During the introductions it looks like Lily Luna took out the ziti and placed it on the table.
About ten minutes into eating James Sirius speaks, "You out did yourself Lils, you could beat Kyle with some of this cooking."
"Kyle gave me the recipes," Lily Luna answers her brother rolling her eyes.
"Do you have any idea when Al will be coming back from the Quidditch league. I suppose he'll want to know what's going on," Lily Luna asks her brother who shrugs as an answer, helpful.
"Aren't you in a helpful mood today, James. I'd send an owl to Amanda to check. She should know. Poor guy needs a day off sometime. Oh, Teddy will be coming over later tomorrow with more details on the time turner," Kyle advises her while slapping James upside the head.
These people seem so laid back about everything. Lily and Scorpius are quietly eating while Izzy, James, and Kyle supply banter. I think the marauders are surprised at this. Though the one thing I'm curious to know is Scorpius' surname. No one has said it. Lily Luna almost told us, but she ran off to call her friends. Izzy didn't even use his last name…fishy.
About an hour later everyone had left and the dishes were cleaned and put in the washer. "Lily, what is your husband's last name? No one seems to be saying it," I question her and she stiffens slightly while Scorpius just looks amused.
"My last name is Malfoy," Scorpius says rolling his eyes and counts his fingers down from three. Right when his last finger goes down Sirius and James explode. Lily looks like she wants to be sick, but holds strong.
"You married a Malfoy? Are you mad? Their family has hated the Potters for generations-" James yells, but Scorpius silences him with a spell and then I notice that Sirius has been silenced as well. Scorpius then starts explaining how in this time there is hardly any pureblood supremacy anymore. James and Sirius are pouting in the corner of the room, but look like they believe him. Remus just seems intrigued by the whole thing.
By the time the explanations are done the clock chimes midnight and everyone is tired. "We have three spare rooms, but one you can't use because it's a nursery, you can split the rooms amongst yourselves. I better not hear any funny business or else," Lily Luna says and for the first time I realize that she's pregnant!
"I didn't know you were pregnant," I gasp and the boys turn their heads to Lily Luna.
"Yes, I'm about three months along now. Now you lot better get to bed," Lily Luna replied smiling as Scorpius kisses her temple.
In the end James and I are sharing a room, while Remus and Sirius share the other. Lily Luna and Scorpius give us one last glace before going into their room for the night.
I quickly got ready for bed and lay down next to James. "Interesting day?" I ask him quietly seeing if he's awake.
"Going to the future and meeting your grandchildren is all in an average day for the marauders. Now, go to bed Lily-flower. It's past your bed time," James mumbles wrapping his arms around my waist and snuggles into my hair quickly falling asleep. Thinking back on the day, it could have been worse.
A/N
Wow, three authors notes in one chapter...I think it's a new record. And please review! I hate Physics! (Just thought I should tell you because it is evil and consumes my time)
