Months passed, when suddenly it was Christmas again. Ron and Hermione went home, Harry stayed at Hogwarts with his mother and Severus.
After their relationship got public, everyone went crazy.
There was no other topic, than Harry's mother, for over 4 weeks.
It was even more exhausting than before they announced it.
Potion making got worse day by day. Everyone thought that Snape would prefer him. To be out of line, Harry skipped every other class.
Besides that, the relationship between him and the older one got better with every evening they spent together.
Harry now had dinner with them almost every night.
Even when it sounded odd, but he could actually laugh with Severus over the most random things.
Lily loved watching them. She never felt more at home, than with them both around.
At Christmas Eve they had dinner as usual.
The Elfs did a good job. Harry absolutely loved the food.
"I never ate more delicious food in my life before.", Lily announced over the Christmasy decorated table, as she took her last bite.
Candle light up the room in a cozy shimmer.
Lily started dreaming. Her heart was suddenly filled with love to the edge.
"Everything's fine, darling?", Severus looked over to her, grabbing her hand.
"Sure… It's just. Guys, I need to tell you something", she smiled wider, squeezing Severus hand.
"What is it?", Harry asked his mother, picking up another piece of his potatoes.
She took a deep breath, which made Harry look up.
"I'm pregnant", she said, laughing right after it. All of here feelings poured out of her.
Harry dropped his fork immediately, Severus looked over at Lily.
"What?", Harry said with a shocked, nervous voice.
"Really?", Severus still held her hand.
She simply nodded as her eyes filled with tears.
"Oh my god", Harry covered his face with his hand, trying not to freak out.
"I never thought that it would happen so quickly", Severus stood up and closed Lily in a tight hug, lifting her off her feet.
"You planned this?", Harry looked up again frowning, looking confused.
"Not exactly, no.", Severus told Harry, kissing Lily passionate a second afterwards. He tried to pull her even closer.
About two months ago, they stopped using protection. They both decided that their destiny should decide.
Lily always wanted more kids, and with Severus it felt right again.
She was so close to him, that she saw her reflection in his eyes. For a second, the world stopped moving.
She found out that she held his child under her heart about a week ago.
It was hard for her to not tell anyone, but she wanted to wait until Christmas to tell them both.
She now cried and couldn't help it. Severus laughed and could feel the world shaking under his feet.
He always wanted kids.
Even if no one knew it or even thought that he could actually want it.
Back then he always pictured a life with Lily as his wife and kids running around.
Now that he already got her and her son, it was like the frosting on a cake.
A sweet, lovely surprise.
"This can't be real", he announced, feeling his emotions coming up.
"It is. It really is, darling", Lily laughed crying, as she landed on her own feet again.
Thin tears rolling out of Severus eyes. He immediately felt embarrassment about it, but couldn't stop it.
"… cool", Harry cleared his throat.
"Sorry darling.", Lily rushed around the table hugging him.
"I'm happy for you two", he said, still kind of confused.
"You're going to be a big brother", Lily announced, which made her sob again. She pictured Harry with a little sibling.
Her heart absolutely melted away by it.
„Who knows about it?", Severus asked. He sat down onto his chair again, wiping tears out of his eyes.
"No one. You're the first one I am telling it. I had to deal with it first.", she answered, walked up to him and kissed him once more.
"I love you more than anything else here on this planet", she whispered.
"I love you too…", he looked at Harry.
"All three of you", he added.
