Buffy, the witchy vampire slayer

Chapter 6 – Telling James.

DISCLAIMER: Buffy the Vampire Slayer belongs to Joss Whedon, and Harry Potter to J.K. Rowling. I don't owe anything…-sighs-

TIMELINE: AU. BTVS: After Buffy season three. HP: Before and after Harry's birth (Takes place during the marauders 19:s and up). The years follow the Buffy timeline.

SUMMARY: BTVS/HP crossover. Buffy leaves Sunnydale after Graduation to catch up with her past.

BIG SUMMARY: Buffy is an eleven year old witch and friends with the Hogwarts marauders (a year older), until her parents tells her they're moving to LA, because they wants to take her away from all the 'magic-stuff' (They don't want to accept the fact that she's a witch). Four years later, she's called as the slayer.

CENTRAL PAIRING: Buffy/Sirius

OTHER PAIRINGS: James/Lily, Willow/Remus, Xander/Anya

Reviews respond:

Locatha: Hi! Oh…I'm sorry you didnt like the chapter. I know it was completely unbelievable, but that was suppossed to be funny…in an ironic kind of way…if you're complete dork…-hits myself in the head- anyway, sorry, but that's life. Everyone can't like it. I did. In a gross kind of way…

Hidden in the Darkness: Your welcome! Everything for my little HitD. Hehe. I'm glad you liked the chapter!

Kat Hawkins: Hehe. I know…it's gross!And I don't particulary like that pairing either…but I can read it, if it's a good story if you don't count that. But Buffy/Snape…I agree, it's wrong. Sure, she goes for tall, dark and broody, but tall, dark and slimy is a little too much at times. When I read a story with a Buffy/Snape ship, I try to put Sirius name in front of Snapes. So I can deal. And YES, they will. Sooner or later. The one who waits for something good…

Anne-Janet: I know! That was the point! To gross you out, but still make you like it! As for Snape and Buffy…let me just say…eeeew. It 'aint gonna happen in any of my story! Unless I hit my head very hard and goes crazy – promise me to help me stop writing if that happens?

Just Me (anonymous): Thank you! I know, the Buffy/Snape thing was 'yuck', but he was theonly one I could think being able to replace Spike. I was thinking about Peter for awhile, but that would've been even more yuck. –Shudders-

Just a thought (anonymous): Hi, I'm sorry if you found the chapter boring…that wasn't the point of it. To my defence I can say it was the only way I could come up with to introduce Willow a second time, and the pain she goes through…I had a little writers-block at the time, so I wasn't very imaginative… I'm glad you like the story apart from that, though, and I'll try to get back to my 'original' way to write again. When you write chapters on impulse, without really planning anything, except that you know the end, and some red lines, it kind of happens that some chapters are bad, some better, some great, and some suck. It all the depends on what the author feels like, and thinks about at the moment. It's always easier with many ideas. As for Snape/Buffy, yeah, it's 'yucky'. And you're completely right – they try to compare him with Spike too much (okay, I gave him Spikes part in the last chapter, but that was pretty much coincidence. I was thinking about Peter, but I think I would've thrown up if I had), but there is a difference – Spike's evilness isn't an act. He is evil. Just in love at the same time. Snape isn't evil. He isn't even a good bad boy. He's just embarrassing at times – especially when he tries to be evil. He can't even be that very well. Nope. Kind of feel a little sorry for the bloke…a little. A tiny little bit. As for Siri and Buffy…you just have to wait. And yeah, Willow was whiney in "Something Blue"/My "Somehting Blue". Irritating, I know. (But an important part of the story/episode) But it doesn't really matter, she goes through some rough stuff, and the funnyness in the episode weighs that up. And OMG, this answer was way too long! (Propably one of the longest I've ever written…when I start, I don't seem to be able to stop! (Writing, not drinking ;) )) Bye!

Willow Evenstar: Hi Emi and welcome back! I missed one of my favourite reviewer! Thank you! My chapter was crazy, I know! I'm glad you like it! –Does Xander's Snoopy dance on the table- Poor you! Losing your computer – can't be fun! I've never done it, thank god! (Maybe because I can't carry it around, and it's stuck in my wardrobe?) Poor you, not being able to find a computer…evil friends you got! Kidding. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapters!
And it's good to know I have you by my side –smiles- And I know…S/B was disgusting to write. But my other option was Peter, so... –shrugs- Anything is better than that! I propably would've if I had written P/B... –Mumbles something about evil, disgusting rats- Talking about rats! We have one in our kitchen! It's not nice…it scratches against the innerside of our walls/doors on the lockers - It sounds like big claws…eew! I swear, it must be HUGE! We found a bit of our ginger-bread house in a hole behind our sofa, and someone had taken a big bite out of it! It was as big as…well, something! We're trying to get rid of it, but our tries doesn't seem to work this far – any suggestion. (Just so you know – I'm not afraid of rats/hate them (unless they're named Peter 'Wormtail' Pettigrew). I think they're cute if they're tame and you have them in a cage (my friend has two big rats – Yoda and 'whatever her name is' – they're really cute) under watch, but wild rats in your house is not something I like. i mean, what if it gets out from 'wherever it is and jumps up in your bed while you're sleeping? –Shudders- Okay…now I've been writing too much again… -sighs- You're suppossed to stop me when I do! (Not that you can since you're far away, and I'm here…but…you know what I mean) How did we come to the subject 'rats', by the way? /Ida

"Umm...Buffy?" Buffy was talking to Willow- they seemed upset about something.

Buffy didn't seem to notice where she was standing with Willow.

"You can't quit college, Will!" she said.

"Oh, I can, Buffy! You can't tell me what to do!"

"YES! Yes, I can! I can a lot! I do! I do a lot!"

"No! You don't do! You..."

Sirius watched the argument for awhile- he felt like he was watching a pingis-match he'd seen on television once, and their sentenceswere the little ball...ping-pong-ping-pong-ping...

"Okay..." he said slowly, "well...since you seem to be busy..."

"NO!" Sirius jumped at the sharp tone on Buffy's voice. "What?" he asked, confused, until he understood her word was directed towards Willow, and not him- they hadn't even noticed him.

"Oh...well, I should...probably...leave," he said weakly, but then...

"...Siri!" Buffy said, "where did you come from, I didn't see you! Don't sneak up on us like that!" She said accusingly.

Sirius blinked. He hadn't sneaked...had he?

"Oh, well, I'm glad you're here. Tell Willow she can't!"

"Can't what?" Sirius felt more confused than ever.

"Quit college! Geez, pay some attention..." Buffy muttered- she wasn't irritatedat Sirius- his clueless way was actually kind of cute- but she was cranky. And cranky Buffy- not of the good.

"Which is...?"

Buffy blinked.

"Oh...well- it's school. You have books, and small tiny sticks whichare called 'pencils'- it's almost like a quill by the way- and then you learn things!"

Sirius rolled his eyes.

"I know what a pencil is, Buffy! Just because I'm not a muggle, doesn't mean I'm stupid."

"Well, you asked. Now, tell her!"

"Why? I mean...if Willow wants to quit this colleash thing, then let her."

Buffy glared at him.

"You're supposed to be on my side in this."

"Oh. Well...umm...Willow, don't quit colleash."

"College. C-o-l-le-g-e. College. Not colleash. Leash is a thing you lead dogs on. Except you. Unless you want a leash?"

Sirius sighed.

"So...you're staying in England?" Remus asked Willow, unable to hide his grin. They had come closer during her last week here- if you didn't count the little spell-accident.

Willow nodded. "For awhile, at least...until I've cleared some things up..."

"Oh, Buffy made it sound like you were planning to stay forever?"

It was Willows turn to grin.

"You want me too?" On Remus blush, she continued.

"Well...I don't know... I mean, I'm planning on dropping out of the college in Sunnydale...a college is a school, where you learn things, by the way, and you have books, and..."

Remus grinned again.

"I know what a college is, Will."

"You do? Oh. Good. Hang on...how can you know, when Sirius doesn't?"

"Well...I took muggle-studies four years longer than he did. He quit when we came to telephones. I think the exact phrase was "why do we need fellephones when we can visit our friends with a 'pop', 'tug' or a 'yelp.'" Willow giggled.

"What do the 'pop', 'tug' and 'yelp' stand for?" she asked, interested.

"The 'pop' is for apparating, the 'tug' for a portkey, and 'yelp' for floo-powder- I prefere the first one."

"Why?"

"It's more comfortable...you'll know why when you try it. Anyway, I'm glad you're staying- and if you would change your mind about college...well, we have Oxford college in London- I've heard it's supposed to be rather good."

"James..." Lily walked up to him- she looked rather nervous.

"Hey, Lils, what's wrong?"

Lily looked over her shoulder, like she was checking no one was following her.

"Well...um...can I talk to you for a sec?"

"Sure." They walked away to a dark corner at the end of the room.

"James," Lily said seriously.

"Lily," James said, just as serious.

Lily rolled her eyes. "Don't make fun of me!"

"I didn't!" James protested, "but...but you looked so funny..."

Lily smacked him on his head.

"Will you listen to me?!"

"Okay, okay...what? Take it easy..." He mumbled. "I think I'm getting a headache..."

"James!"

"Sorry..."

Lily coughed a little, and twinned her wand between her fingers.

"Well...umm...James...do you love me?"

James just stared at her. Was she out of her bloody mind?! Of course he did!

"Umm...Lily...if you didn't notice...we're married. Married. As in 'togetheruntil death forces us apart'... Of course I love you!"

"Oh. Right. Good..." She still looked nervous. James took her face in his hand and looked her deep into the eyes.

"Lily, what's wrong?"

"Nothing...it's great, actually. Um...I should go...I need to talk to Dumbledore about something..."

"Nuh-hu. Don't even think about it!" James grabbed her arm when Lily started to leave.

"Now- tell me what's wrong." He pouted, and gave her his best puppy-imitation.

Lily couldn't help but giggle. She sighed.

"Alright- but promise not to laugh."

"I promise," James smirked. Inside, he laughed already. It was all very funny.

"I'm pregnant."

Silence. James blinked. Suddenly, it wasn't so funny anymore.

"James?" Lily said, nervously. "Please, say something...you're scaring me..."

James opened his mouth, but no words came out - only a little 'squeak'.

"James? James, talk to me!" Lily demanded. She looked like she was going to cry.

James just stared at her with empty eyes. Another squeak. James swallowed, and tried to get rid of the dryness that had taken place in his throat.

Lily's eyes had started to fill with tears. 'He doesn't love me anymore...I knew it...'

The first tear fell, and Lily took a shaky breath.

That seemed to do it.

James blinked, and seemed to wake up of his trance.

Lily. Pregnant. Lily. Baby. James. Daddy. Lily. Mother. Parents.

He blinked again., and then he grinned. A big grin lit up his entire face, and he lifted Lily up in his arms, throwing her around like a doll, kissing her madly.

Lily was in a state of shock. He wasn't mad? He was- happy?

James say her down.

"Y-you're not mad...?"

"Mad? MAD?! Why would I be mad?! Lily, I love you, Iloveyou, Iloveyou, I LOVE YOU!" He screamed, so high, it must've been heard over the entire castle.

Lily threw her head back and laughed, relieved. James lent forward, and wiped away a tear from her face, again serious.

"You didn't think I would leave you, did you? Lily, never doubt that I love you. More than anything. More than life itself. I would never leave you. We're going to be parents, Lils...great parents...to a little girl...or a little boy...and...we can play with her...or him...and teach the kid pranks...and..." James looked like he'd gone to heaven already.

"Hey, hey! No pranks!" Lily said sternly, but inside, she smiled. James was already planning their future. It seemed like everything worked out for the best.

"Okay. No pranks. At least not so many. Maybe a few. Or a little more. And then, we can help him...or her to walk...and talk...and..." James eyes twinkled with happiness.

"James! She- or he- is not going to be a baby or a kid forever! It's going to be bigger! And start to chase after girls, or boys! And think of all the parent-talks...if it's a girl, about menstruation-cycles, and...," Lily teased. James smile faltered, but then he smiled again.

"Oh, well, I can deal. Just think about it, Lils...our being parents...our own baby...and then we can grow up with her or him...and see him or her be bigger...and we're all together...like a family..."

They kissed slowly, until James looked Lily in the eyes again.

"But just to make ourselves clear - if it's a girl- you talk about the...that...thing..."

"Okay. Then you take the sex-part."

"Deal."

"Good."

"Great."

"Fine."

And then they kissed again. They wasn't aware of Peter, who stood around the corner, listening to every word they said.

"So...the Potters are getting a baby, are they?" Lord Voldemort mused.

"Y-yes my Lord. Th-they were both very excited..."

Voldemort chuckled.

"I see...very well, Wormtail, good job. From now on, I want you to find out everything you can about this baby."

"M-my Lord...I don't understand...why...?"

"Are you questioning my orders, Wormtail?"

"N-o my Lord."

"Good. But since you asked so...kindly," he chuckled, "...I'll give you an answer. I have reasons to believe this...child is going to be very dangerous. There is a prophecy, you see..."

"A p-prophecy, my Lord?"

"Yes...a prophecy...and I'm going to make sure...it does not come true..." Voldemort chuckled again, and then his chuckle became a laugh, and the laugh echoed through the empty halls of Malfoy manor.
