Another from Piper's POV. I was going to have it from Draco's, but then I forgot and wrote it this way. This chapter is for itsMrsBlack, since she was wondering who Snape married. Also, if anyone is interested I made a family tree sort of thing to keep everyone and their children straight, I can post it on my profile if y'all want.

"Lily, can I talk to you?"

Piper looked up from her Charms essay to see Severus Snape standing nervously next to the table she shared with Lily Evans.

Lily smiled warmly at her Slytherin friend. "Sure, grab a seat."

Snape pursed his lips and gave Lily a pleading look. "Alone?"

"Sev," she said gently, furrowing her brow. "Piper doesn't bite, you don't have to be shy."

He shuffled his feet awkwardly before sitting tentatively on the chair. "I wanted some advice," a deep blush crept up his cheeks and Piper smirked at Lily.

"About what?" Lily said patiently, stepping lightly on Piper's toes.

"Asking a girl out," he mumbled and both girls broke out into huge grins.

"If you want to ask Lily out, Snape," Piper teased, ignoring the horrified look on Lily's face. "You should just spit it out, you don't have to go through all this trouble."

Snape's eyes went wide as he looked from Lily's frozen features to Piper's smug smirk. "N-no," he stuttered. "I wasn't going to ask Lily out."

Lily blinked at him a few times before smacking Piper on the arm. "Who is it, Sev?"

He shook his head. "I can't say."

Lily grinned. "Come on, we won't say a word," she gave Piper a pointed look. "Will we Piper?"

Piper drug two fingers across her lips and threw an imaginary key over her shoulder.

Snape still looked apprehensive.

Piper rolled her eyes. "I swear I won't say anything to anyone."

Snape narrowed his brow at her. "Not even your low-life boyfriend?"

"Sev!" Lily said, smacking his arm. "Don't be rude!"

He rolled his eyes. "Fine. It's Phoebe Black."

Piper's eyes widened. Phoebe was Sirius's gorgeous first cousin who was a year behind her in school. Phoebe was tall, blonde, had those striking grey eyes that were typical of the Black family. She was a Slytherin and truly the apple of her father's eye.

"Are you serious?" Lily said cautiously.

"Yes," Snape said defensively.

Piper sighed. "I dunno, I think she's got her eye on McLaggen."

Snape's upper lip curled in disgust. "I didn't ask for input, Prewett. I asked how I should ask her out."

Piper crossed her arms. "My advice is that you shouldn't. Phoebe won't go for a guy like you."

Snape stood up, his black eyes boring into her light blue ones. "I'm going to make you eat your words, Prewett, just you watch."

She snorted. "Whatever, Snape. Good luck."

"Eating your words?" Lily teased, snatching a strawberry off Piper's plate and grinning at her best friend.

Piper rolled her eyes and sighed, setting her plate of fruit down on the wedding party's table. "I don't want to talk about it."

Lily laughed and shook her head. "She does look really happy with him, doesn't she?"

Piper looked over the dance floor, her eyes landing on the beautiful bride who was laughing at something her groom had whispered in her ear. She had to admit, Phoebe did look awfully happy with Snape.

"She does," Piper nodded, her eyes landing on Phoebe's parents who were dancing not too far away from the bride and groom. "Draco doesn't look too pleased though."

Lily looked over at the older generation and laughed. "He always has that sour look on his face when he looks at Severus, I wonder why."

Piper shook her head and rested her hands on her swollen belly. "I'm just glad that my in-laws don't look at me that way."

Lily laughed. "Are you kidding? Everyone in this family adores you. I swear you could get away with murder with them."

Piper grinned. "Of course they love me Lily, I am amazing."

Her best friend grinned and absently rubbed her own pregnant belly. "Sometimes I'm tempted to ask them about the future," she looked longingly at the group of elders and Piper knew she was looking at Draco and Peia. "Just to have a little insight."

"Nah," Piper said quietly, taking Lily's hand in her own. "I don't think we want to know about their version of the future. The little that we do know is too much. It wasn't a happy time, Lily."

"I know," Lily said sadly. "I just want to know what he was like. You're lucky that you've already met your daughter."

Piper arched a brow and shook her head. "Lucky? I don't think so. I'll always be comparing my daughter to that woman over there," she pointed to Peia. "Which isn't fair, they won't be the same person."

"Yeah," Lily said, her eyes downcast.

"Hey!"

Piper's eyes snapped up to see two grinning faces walking towards them.

"Why do you two look so glum?" Sirius asked, wrapping his arms around her from the side and kissing her temple.

Lily sighed loudly as James fingered a red curl. "Just reminiscing."

James grinned. "Enough of that," he turned to Piper and offered his hand. "Mrs. Black, would you do me the honour of having this dance?"

Piper laughed and nodded as Sirius grabbed Lily's hand and towed her toward the dance floor after her and James.

"Congratulations again," Piper said, grinning as she hugged her friend.

"Do you really have to go?" Phoebe said, her mouth forming a perfect pout but Piper could see the smile in her eyes.

Piper nodded and rested a hand on the top of her belly. "It's your own fault for having two pregnant bridesmaids."

Phoebe laughed. "You were barely showing when I asked, and Lily wasn't pregnant yet!"

Sirius wriggled between the two women, hugging his cousin tightly. "I can't believe you married that greasy snake," he said, a huge grin on his face.

Piper laughed at the exchange, jumping a bit when there was a tap on her shoulder. She turned around to a very smug Severus Snape.

She smiled and shook her head. "I have to admit," she laughed. "I didn't see this coming."

"Eating your words then, Prewett?"

She arched a golden brow. "It's Black now," before she could think better of it, she hugged him. "Congratulations Severus."
