Hello again! EXAMS! AHHHH! Well, you can assume that they will be occupying most of my time. Not all but most. So that means that as soon as these next two weeks are over we will be on a normal schedule, as for now... we will have a few updates here and there. I also want to thank you guys SO much for the not only supportive, but inspiring reviews last week. I got a burst of imagination because my highschool entrance exams came back, and I'm pleased to say that I got in! Out of five hundred girls, only 200 were accepted, and I scored top ten percent, resulting in a nice grant! So... to business, I hope you all have a fun time reading this chapter... it may answer a few of your questions, and if it doesn't, then feel free to review and I will gladly point you in the right directions.

Yours truly, WheezlyGirl.

'So, let me get this straight. This is your son, from the future, and he's told you that Wormtail has betrayed us and the contract, which I knew he was bad... but I didn't expect us to betray us so soon. He's also told you that you will die in a couple of years, due to Voldemort's obsession of your powers. Further more, he says he lives with Petunia and her magic-hating family...' Remus said in an awestruck, almost, very slightly disbelieving voice.

James and Lily nodded at him with a small smile.

'I believe it.' Remus said shrugging. The story sounded good enough, and all you had to do was look at Harry to see that he was James' son... his eyes were exactly like Lily's. Almond shape, with the tints of deep, vibrant green, radiating. They were almost so intense that you quivered under the questioning, appraising, or accusing stare. Remus and Lily were friends... and friends only... but he sure loved her brilliant eyes. He could point them out from a mile away.

'Hey Harry, I'm Faye, Sirius' girlfriend. This is Michelle, we all call her Mich though.' Faye spoke up. That was one thing about her that you could never miss. She was out-going, crazy, insane, and had about as many boyfriends in her lifetime as Sirius' amount of girlfriends. She was the girl form of him and was completely in love with his sense of style. She spoke her mind, too.

'Hey, I'm going out with Remy, I assume you know of his... uh condition... seeing as, you said he was your professor at one point in your previous life...' Michelle told him politely, just making sure that they could talk freely infront of this kid, if they were going to include him and all.

'Yeah, my friend and I were chased all through the dark forest once on a full moon.' Harry said laughing at his third year experience.

'Did I bite you? Or - or your friend?' Remus asked quickly and in a frightened voice.

'No... Sirius ended up saving us... then I had to save him from some dementors.' Harry said shrugging, as if talking about the weather.

'That is so... cool! I can't wait.' Sirius said, nodding his head in approval.

'Actually, I doubt it will happen, because I warned you guys about Peter and he won't get loose this time... that's why we were in the forest in the first place.' Harry told him, shrugging.

'So, your friends what are their names?' Lily asked, interested.

'Uh... Well, there is Hermione Granger, the one that Moony chased in the forest with me. And, Ron Weasley... and his five brothers and little sister...' Harry told her, trying not to stare too much at Sirius, James, or Lily, for he was so happy they were with him.

'Weasley...' James said, looking considerably happier.

'What?' Lily asked him.

'Ginny Weasley... Harry's little crush. Your best friend's little sister...' James whistled loudly.

Lily gaped and looked at Harry with laughing eyes.

'Yeah, exactly why I'm not set on the decision of going out with her. She has six brothers... including my best friend.' Harry said, cringing at the thought of Bill and Charlie getting ahold of him.

'Awww... Harry's got crush!' Faye said, teasing him. He fit right in with their group.

'I resent ever telling you that.' Harry said, pointing at James, who put his hands on his chest and tried to look innocent.

'Don't tease my son.' Lily said in a joking matter.

'That's really weird sounding... you know that Lils.' Michelle said to her smiling.

'Yes... but it's true.' Lily said jutting out her chin.

'What I find interesting is the fact that Lily actually accepted James' hand in marriage.' Remus said laughing.

James and Sirius looked at each other and burst into fits of laughter.

'Not again!' Lily groaned.

'What's wrong with them?' Faye asked her, looking at her boyfriend strangely.

'They said that if someone told them I would marry James a month ago, then they would've called St. Mungo's. Nice job, Remus.' Lily said in a dull voice.

'St. Mungo's...' Harry mumbled.

'What, Harry?' Remus asked him.

'Do you guys know Frank and Alice Longbottom?' He asked them with not-so-happy eyes.

'You mean Alice Westing?' Lily asked him.

'I guess... well in my time, they're married...' Harry began.

All three girls gasped and started squealing loudly. Harry looked confused.

'Alice was a friend of ours, just a year above us. Her and Frank are going out now! He proposed, how sweet!' Michelle explained.

'Well... they're in St. Mungo's now.' Harry told them sadly.

'What?' Faye asked softly to him curiously.

'Voldemort's followers, the Lestranges tortured them to insanity.' Harry said quietly.

Sirius whitened at the thought of his cousin's boyfriend.

'Lestrange?' He asked in a squeaky voice.

'Your cousin, Bellatrix is now a Lestrange... she was the one who killed you last year.' Harry said sadly. A tear formed in his eye and his face was set in an angry glare. He planned Bellatrix's murder already.

'Aww... Harry, come here... you and Sirius were close, weren't you?' Lily said, feeling bad for her son... even if he was only a year younger than her... now.

'Well that sucks... thanks for warning me though, I'll make sure to watch out for her.' Sirius said, trying to lighten the mood. Even though, it's not nice to find out that your evil cousin will end up killing you.

'Were you and Padfoot that friendly?' James asked Harry.

Harry didn't know how to answer this. 'Uh... well, Sirius was sort of a mixture of brother and dad... I guess... Yeah, we were close...' Harry said, feeling kind of bad at his dad's somewhat sad expression.

'I'm... uh sure that you would've been a good... dad...' Harry added, hoping to help the situation.

'James... you won't be your father.' Lily whispered in his ear. He took ahold of her hand and absentmindedly stroked her hair.

'I hope not...' He whispered back.

'I think we should all get to bed. Harry, the couch is yours.' Lily said getting up, with help from James.

'Goodnight Faye, Mich, Remy, Sirius.' Lily said to them all.

'Wait!' Sirius called out. He then waved his wand and said 'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.' The Marauder contract appeared.

'What is it?' Lily asked.

'We, Moony, Padfoot, and Prongs instate you, Lily, Faye, and Mich into the Marauders group.' Sirius said elaborately, holding out a fancy quill for them to sign.

'Oh, and Harry!' James insisted.

'Right... Prongs Junior, c'mere.' Sirius said.

Harry decided to sign under James' name with, Harry Potter, Prongs Junior.

'Marauders are guys though... and we're girls.' Michelle said uncertain.

'That's why it's no longer just Marauders, it's the seventh year of the Marauder's and the Maraudette's!' Remus said to them happily, explaining what James and Sirius told him earlier.

'The Maraudette's... ooohh, I'm in.' Faye said immediately signing the contract. She signed it Faye Sampson, Sunshine, or Padfoot's Girl. She signed Sunshine because she was always so peppy and bright.

Michelle followed with, Michelle Johnson, Breezy, or Moonlight's Path. Mich was Breezy because she was so quiet and calming that she was an unspoken beauty.

With hesitation, Lily came next and signed, Lily Evans, TigerLily, or Prongsette. TigerLily had and always will be a nickname for Lily, for she was as fierce as a tiger and could whiplash anyone in a verbal disagreement.

'Now, to bed... I'm tired.' She announced, ushering all of her friends out, who looked sleepy.

It was really late at night, maybe three in the morning... Lily didn't know. But one thing she did know, was she was in the same little dorm room as her boyfriend, or future husband, and her son that came back from the future.

She rolled over in her sleep, thinking of how much she heard today... about James being animagus, and about Peter being a traitor, and about how James died for her and her baby. Her heart clenched, glad that this time she knew what was coming, and she could be ready.

She tried to fall asleep, but kept having the same nightmare. James and her were in a house and she was holding a baby, and a man barged through the door, taunting James. But, the thing was, she didn't leave him this time around. She stayed and helped fight with him. Quite a few times, James had her back where she was hit with a curse and he caught up with her. Harry was right, James would never let anyone hurt her.

Eventually, she woke up. She must have been talking in her sleep or crying, her cheeks were wet... she turned over one more time and opened her eyes. There before her was a magnificent, white, gleaming stag. He was beautiful. She could tell who it was by simply looking into his eyes, filled with care and concern.

'James.' She said sitting up and looking at him. She put a hand on his head and patted it with a laugh. A while ago, she would be worried about what she was wearing infront of him, which was simply boy shorts and a tank top, but they had gotten so used to seeing each other in mornings, at night that they just stopped caring and were no longer embarrassed.

He changed back into his human form and was smiling.

'That was cool.' Lily said in awe.

'Can't you get to sleep?' He whispered.

Lily shook her head, and tried to hold back all of her tears that were threatening to fall over.

'What is it?' He asked her quickly.

'I just dreamed that we were fighting Voldemort... the night we... supposedly die.' Lily said looking fearful.

'I won't let anything hurt you Lily. I promise you. I would die for you.' James whispered passionately to her, and held on to her tight.

'That's what I'm afraid of.' Lily said to him.

The rest of the night they just laid in Lily's bed... not really going to sleep, but just thinking about what they would do... and how they would solve the problem.

'You think I'll be a good dad?' James asked suddenly. This always bothered him.

Lily looked at him and smiled. 'You have nothing to worry about. You're a great person, and I'm almost positive that you will be a great dad.' She answered to him, and gave him a hug.

'This is all I want after Hogwarts.' James said to her quietly.

Lily thought about this alot, James basically told her that he wanted to continue going out with her... or more after Hogwarts. And, add in their son. 'Good, because this is all I want too.' She whispered.

James smiled, he wanted to hear that his whole life.
