Chapter 14

"That's like the cutest thing I've ever heard of."

"I need too agree with Victorie on that, that's really cute," Rose said. All the girls was in Lilys room – Victorie, Rose, Dominique, Roxanne and Lily self – and the boys was probably in James or Albus room.

"Yeah, I know. He can be a romanticist sometimes," Lily said with a smile.

"He's actually really cute," Dominique said. "But Lily, now you need to tell us what we all suspect..."

"What?" Lily asked, surprised. What they all suspected? That couldn't be...? Could it?

"Oh, Lily. Come on. I haven't seen you for like three months, of course I can see a difference since the last time. Look at yourself! I mean, you are way bigger than I remember you. Tell me the truth now, and I'm really sorry if you just has, er, eaten to much," Victorie said and everyone looked at Lily. Crap.

"Er, what exactly do you think about me?"

"Oh, come on, Lily! We think you're pregnant, of course!" Roxanne said and Lily sighed. She didn't answer. "So are you pregnant?"

"That depend on," Lily said.

"Depends on...? Lily, how the hell can that depend on something?" Dominique said and Lily sighed again.

"I don't know. That depends on who you are gonna tell it."

"Oh, honey. We won't tell anyone if you don't want to, you know that. You can trust us," Victorie said and all girls in the room looked at her.

"Really? Victorie, you're like gossip girl number one," Dominique pointed out.

"Yeah, I know. But I can keep secrets sometimes," Victorie defended herself.

"So what are you gonna do about all this?" Roxanne asked Lily to stop Victorie and Dominiques conversation.

"I don't know, really. First I gonna drop out of school, but I forced Scorpius to go back to Hogwarts and graduate. Maybe we'll get married or something when he comes back, take care of the baby by our selves," Lily told them.

"That's wise," Rose said and then smiled. "Has he proposed yet?"

"No." Lily smiled too.. "I don't know if he's even gonna do that, but I hope so. That's every girls dream, right? To get married with the love of their lives."

"Yes, it is," smiled Rose.

"But, Lily! Your baby is gonna be only one years younger than Audrey. They can be like best friends!" Victorie exclaimed. Lily smiled at her.

"Yes, that's true. Cool."

"You need to know some stuff about my sister, Malfoy. Important things for the future," James told Scorpius as they sat in his room – Scorpius, James, Albus, Louis, Hugo, Fred, Lysander and Lorcan.

"Really?" Scorpius raised his eye browns.

"Yes, like that she hates cats, and she's always mad at everyone on Sunday mornings if she doesn't eat when she wake up," James told the boys in the room, but most Scorpius.

"Okey...?" was Scorpius answer on what James told him. Everyone were looking critical at James, who blushed.

"Okey, okey. I get to the thing. Don't hurt her, please. She can't stand that. Especially not when thing are... like this," James begged Scorpius. Scorpius had talked to Lilys family the day before, when she was asleep. He found out that they all knew about the pregnancy; even though Lily only told her mother.

"I promise I won't hurt her," Scorpius said honestly.

"Great! Now we can talk about some other stuff!" James said happily and everyone in the room except Albus, James and Scorpius looked confused.

"Wait a minute, what things?" Lysander asked and looked from Scorpius to James.

"Oh, nothing. That's really none of your business. Family-stuff," James said. "So, what do you want to do?"

"Family-stuff? So he's family now?" Lysander said and pointed at Scorpius.

"No," James said quiet. "No, he's not. Not really."

"But why does he know, then?" Lysander persisted.

"He just know, okey? Can we stop talking about this now?" James exclaimed. Lysander fell silence.

"I'm sorry if I shout at you, it's just... sensitive," James said after a while.

"But I still don't get why he knows," Lysander muttered down in the floor.

"Lysander, stop fight now, please," Lorcan begged his brother.

"You know what, Lysander? You will soon know what we're talking about, I think Lily's gonna tell you soon," Albus said to cheer Lysander up. That didn't work so well.

"Why did you found out that you are in love with Lily now, really?When she gets a boyfriend, that's when you admit to her that you like her," Fred wanted to know. Everyone looked at Lysander, waiting for his answer.

"I don't know, I think I have been in love with her since we started school or something," Lysander admitted. "But now when she knows, I'll be waiting for her. Waiting for her to break up with him and go to me, or waiting for him to break up with her and her coming crying to me."

"You know what, Lovegood?" Scorpius said, he suddenly got very mad. "You've known Lily almost your entire life, and you've been in love with her since first year at Hogwarts. You had your chance, any time you could had asked her on a date or something. Now it's my turn. Lily choose me, not you."

Lysander looked skeptical at Scorpius.

"Well, it's not like you're gonna be together forever or something. One day, you'll break up, and when that day comes, I'll be there for her."

"And what make you think she wants you? Maybe she just wants to be friends with you," Scorpius snapped.

"What make you think she wants you forever? Since when do you marry your old boyfriend or girlfriend from school?" asked Lysander.

"Our mum was in love with dad since she was eleven or ten. She had some boyfriends in school, yeah. But in the end she ended up with the one she loved since she started Hogwarts," Albus said and James nodded.

"Yeah, dad and mum was friends in school, mum was really Freds girlfriend, but when he died, mum and dad made a couple," Fred told them.

"Yeah, same here. Mum and dad were like best friends from their first year, and they married too," Hugo said and Lysander muttered something. Scorpius won again over him, it looked like he was the winner in this game.
