I didn't get enough reviews on the last chapter but if I didn't update now I never would. Read and Review and Enjoy :)
Harry knocked on the front door of the Malfoy house and a few moments later, Draco answered.
"Have you seen Lily?" Harry asked straight away.
"No," Draco answered, "Is something wrong with her?"
"She's gone," Harry sighed, "She and Albus had a row and she just…left."
"Let's go ask Scorpius if he's seen her."
"Right," Harry said, following Draco into the house.
They reached Scorpius' room and knocked. Behind the door, Scorpius quickly put away his two-way mirror and called for them to come in.
"Scorpius, do you know where Lily is?" Draco asked and Scorpius looked at him with a confused expression.
"No," he lied without blinking, "What happened?"
"She's missing," Harry said, "By the way, do you know what Lily and Albus have been fighting about?"
"Not a clue," Scorpius said.
"You're her best friend," Draco said, "Surely she said something to you about where she might go?"
"She didn't," Scorpius said, "I'm sorry."
Harry sighed desperately. "Ok, I'm going to go check Teddy's. She usually goes to him for advice."
"I'll let you know if I see her," Draco said, "Good luck."
"Thanks," Harry said before disappearing with a pop!
Teddy heard a knock at his front door and got up off the couch, where he and Lily had been watching TV. He opened the door half way and saw Harry standing there looking distressed.
"Harry?" Teddy asked, "Good to see you. Something wrong?"
"Lily's missing," Harry said, "Have you seen her? Albus told me the two of them were arguing and she just left and I thought maybe she'd gone to you."
"Uh," Teddy said before recovering himself, "I haven't seen her."
"Please contact me if you do," Harry said, "I'm going to go look around some more."
"Ok, sure thing," Teddy said, "Let me know if you find her."
"Right," Harry said, Disapparating yet again.
Teddy shut the door and turned around to face Lily, who had heard the conversation and smiled sheepishly.
"You told me they knew you were here," Teddy said sternly, "You ran away, Lily?"
"I, uh," Lily said, "You didn't tell him I was here! That makes you an accomplice."
"We aren't talking about me," Teddy said, "Lily, running away won't solve anything! You have to go home."
"I can't!" Lily exclaimed, "They'll kill me when they find out I'm pregnant!"
"If they're going to kill you it'll be because you ran away," Teddy sighed, "You have to go home and tell them the truth."
"He's right, sweetie," Victoire said, walking into the room. Teddy and Lily had told her about Lily being pregnant already and both Teddy and Victoire had committed to helping her.
Lily covered her face with her hands and groaned. "I can't deal with this," she said quietly, "I'm 19! I'm too young to have a child!"
"I'm sorry," Teddy said, sitting on the couch and putting an arm around her, "You can't change what's already happened. But what you can do is face the future."
"You sound like a fortune cookie," Lily said miserably and Teddy let out a small laugh.
"Hey, that's what I'm here for," Teddy said, "Besides, you must like my fortune cookie advice if you keep asking for it."
Lily smiled slightly and then put her forehead on her knees. "I- I just can't do this."
"You need to go home, sweetheart," Victoire said, putting a hand on Lily's back, "We can take you there, and we'll be right behind you when you tell your parents."
"I can't go home yet," Lily said, "I just can't."
"We can't just not tell your parents you're here," Teddy said, "It's bad enough I lied to Harry about you being here, but if I let you stay here and they find out, we're both going to be in trouble."
"You can't tell them I'm here," Lily pleaded, "Please; I just need to think about things for a little bit."
Teddy sighed. "Ok, you can stay here and I won't tell your parents."
"Promise?" Lily asked.
"Promise."
Harry and Ginny went home after hours of searching with no luck. They sat on the couch and sighed miserably.
"Where could she be?" Ginny asked.
"I don't know. I checked the Malfoy's, I checked Teddy's, and I even went to Luna's house. She's not there. Lysander is worried about her," Harry added, "When I told him she was missing he insisted of searching with me."
"You know he's had a thing for her since he was in his sixth year and Lily was in her fourth." Ginny said, "Of course he's worried. I looked at Ron's and she wasn't there so Hermione and I looked around Diagon Alley for a while."
Harry covered his face with his hand. "How could we not see that there was something wrong with her?" he asked, "She's been upset for weeks and we didn't bother to find out why."
"That's not true, love," Ginny said, "We tried to talk to her several times. You can't blame yourself for this."
"I'm her father," Harry said, "I should know stuff that's going on with her."
"She's been so closed off these past few weeks," Ginny said, "It'll be fine. We'll find her."
The next morning Lily woke up on Teddy's couch and walked into the kitchen to get breakfast. When she got there, she saw Teddy having breakfast, and sitting next to him was…
"Albus!" Lily exclaimed, "Wh-what are you doing here?"
"I got him," Teddy said.
"You told him I was here? Teddy, you promised!"
"I promised not to tell your parents," Teddy corrected her, "I had to tell someone you were here. Your parents are worried, Lily."
"Mum and Dad barely slept last night, Lils," Albus said, "And neither did I. We were all so worried about you."
"I'm sorry," Lily sighed, sitting on one of the kitchen chairs.
"Then come home," Albus said, "Please?"
Lily bit her lip and looked at the kitchen table, "Ok, I'll come home," she said, "I didn't sleep much last night, anyway. I was thinking too much about how horrible this must be making Mum and Dad feel."
Albus smiled and put an arm around Lily's shoulder. "Thanks for coming to get me, Teddy," he said.
"No problem," Teddy said, "Lily, do you want me to come back to your house with you? For support?"
"No thank you," Lily said, "I need to face this. But thank you for everything, Teddy." She walked away from Albus and gave Teddy a hug. "I love you."
"Love you too, sis," Teddy smiled.
Lily walked back to Albus and the two of them Disapparated.
