"Hey, Lils, how was work?" Adam asked when she arrived home that night.
"Fine, I guess," she said as she sat in his lap, and rested her head on his shoulder.
Adam was two years older than her, so they had never gone out during Hogwarts. They had met when Lily was at a job interview for the Ministry. He worked in the same department as her, but seeing as he was one of the heads, he could work from home.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I'm just a little tired," she said with a sigh," Did you eat?"
"Yeah," he said as he put his hand through her hair.
"Katharine is pregnant," she said. She hadn't told him, seeing as they had gotten into a fight.
"That's nice. Does Moody know?"
"I'm not sure," she said as she stared off into the fire Adam had put on earlier.
"What about Layla?"
"What about her?"
"Nothing, it's just that she has a little trouble taking care of her with all the raids, what's going to happen when she has a new baby?'
"I'm not sure. I hope I'll get off more though. If I do, I'll help her out a little. She does a lot, you know," Lily said quietly.
"Yeah, I guess," he said with a sigh. Lily looked at him,
She thought about everything she could think of that was going on. All the raids, work, Katharine, everything. She couldn't get her mind away.
"Lily, hello?'
"Oh, sorry," she said with a soft smile.
"I'm going to sleep, how 'bout you?"
"Just a minute," she said as she got up to get a glass of water.

"Lily, I need your help," Katharine said as she walked over to Lily's desk.
"What is it?"
"I need you to go on the raid tonight. Moody said I could get off as long as I could get someone to fill in for me," she said.
"Yeah, I could, but did you ever think that I am not trained as an auror?"
"Yeah. He said it doesn't matter, as long as I got someone. Please Lily? I need to go home cause I really feel sick, and Layla has been at my mother's house for a week."
"Sure, as long as-"
"Hey," Adam said as he walked up behind her.
"What are you doing here?" Lily asked as she hugged him.
"I had some papers to give to Moody about the raid tonight."
"Oh, I wanted to talk to you about that," Lily said as she waved goodbye to Katharine.
"What?"
"Well, Katharine isn't feeling good, and she has to go on the raid tonight, so I said I would fill in for her," Lily said quietly.
"But you aren't trained as an Auror," he said with a sigh.
"Yeah, a little," she said trying to convince him.
"Do you know when you're gonna be home?"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Lily, I must tell you, you need to listen to everything I say," Sirius tried to convince her.
"Sirius, fuck off."
"Feisty, are we?"
"Padfoot, knock it off," James said.
"Aw look, here's Jamsie to save Lily, again."
"Cut off it Sirius."
"James, are you going to ask her out again?"
"No, because I believe that she has a boyfriend," James said without looking up from the papers he was reading.
"And how would you know that Prongs?" Sirius asked as he put his arm around Lily's shoulders.
"Well, he happens to be one of Moody's friends," James said.
"Actually, his parents are friends with Moody," Lily chirped in.
"Ahh, so James DOES still see what his Lily Flower is up to," Sirius said as they put their cloaks on and started their raid.
