Chapter 12.

"Lily, we are happy to inform you the potion has indeed worked and your baby will be quite alright, we have also checked and the baby has sustained no damage from the ordeal. Now you are on strict orders of bed rest, no getting up for what you don't have to do, and I know this is hard because you have a baby but if you want to save the one you are carrying you will stay in a sitting or lying position." The doctor said. He gave her a few sleeping potions that wouldn't effect the baby and told her to get a lot of rest.

"Don't worry," Emily said, I'll be there every step of the way to make sure you will be Ok."

"Thanks Em, what would I do without you."

"It's not a problem I promise."

Remus couldn't help but kiss Lily over and over again all the way home, he was so glad she had lived.

"Remus, come on now, Sirius is glad I made it and hes not making out with me, save it for later. " She smiled.

Sirius, taking his cue leaned in and kissed Lily all over her forehead and cheeks, "Oh Lils I am just so relieved you made it, oh I just can't stop kissing you."

Remus and Emily started to laugh. Lily was laughing to and hit him, "Thats Remus's territory!" She laughed.

"She is right you know, that is my territory!"

Sirius started laughing, "fine, fine, I'm not going to fight a wolf over his territory!"

They all sat down and had a big dinner and then Lily spent the rest of the evening with her two favorite men, after reassuring Sirius he was her third favorite man, and he would get his quality time too.

Lily took quickly to muggle knitting, it was actually quite fun, and with Emily there, she had a lot of extra time because someone was helping with Harry. She was already half way through her first scarf. muggle T.V. Shows were her favorite too, anything with Drama, or anything that would make her cry was good in her book. She also read too, now don't judge this as being lazy, she had just learned she couldn't fight with Emily or Remus. She could play with Harry whenever she wanted, as long as she was in the floor or in a sitting or laying position. She was allowed to get up only to go to her bed, go to get a snack and not cook a full course meal, or go to the bathroom. And everyone was very strict about this, which she was very glad for.

The people from Hogwarts would come and visit her every day, and she loved writing letters and sending them with her owl Sasha. When she found out that Professor Snape had given up the last potion in the world for her, she just had to let him know how much she appreciated it.

Severus,

Thank you so very much for the potion. It not only saved my life, but the life of my baby. It also kept my friends from having to mourn my death. I don't know how I can thank you enough for saving our lives. Let me know if there is ever anything you need, I am surely in your debt.

Thank you again and again,

Lily.

Severus couldn't believe his eyes, Lupin really hadn't told her about him, and he was thankful, he loved Lily, he knew he could never have her, but he loved her, and was really thankful she was alive, even if she was carrying the werewolf's child.

Lily,

I appreciate the letter of thanks but it is not needed. I was in your debt for being nice to me all those years in school, and the short time you helped me here. Lets just say were closer to even now! I still owe you much.

Forever your friend,

Severus.

He thought it was a little tacky but it would have to do, he sent it on and finished grading papers.

When Lily got his letter she started to cry, he really thought of her as a friend, and he was so sweet about it all, this was not the man she remembered at all but it was a nice change. She came to the conclusion that she would write to him more often, after all, she didn't want him to think her a bad friend.

Lily's life was going fairly well, she just was having a tough time getting used to this whole bed rest thing, it really wasn't her style. But she had always wanted a big family and she guessed this was just a price she was going to have to pay sometimes. She would just plan her baby shower too, all the things she did during the day should keep her very busy.

A/N: a bit short, but I just wanted you to see Lily's life during bed rest, the next two chapters should be fun and dramatic, but not sad drama. I will be going on spring break, and im not sure how many chapters i will get out, but im gonna try!
