Playing house: Chapter one.
"Excuse me." Professor McGonagall said impatiently, trying to get the attention of the seventh years, "Excuse me, would you please be quiet?"
The seventh years quietened after a while, most of them were paying attention except for The Marauders, who were playing with a spider that had just crawled by.
Lily was sitting with her two best friends, Ellie Andrews and Emma Greene.
Ellie Andrews was a very confident girl; she was always in detention for pranking the Marauders. She was loud, feisty, boisterous and outspoken. She was a metamorphagus; Her natural hair was light brown and it fell just past her shoulders, and light aqua eyes. Her mother had died in a car accident and her father was a permanent resident of St. Mungos, he was insane and deaf, so Ellie was very good at sign language, therefore she used it for insults. She had no other family soshe lived at an orphanage during the holidays.
Emma Greene was a bit quieter than Ellie, but she wasn't shy. Her real name was Emmalille, but she hated that, so it was just Emma. She always avoided detention, despite always helping Ellie with her pranks. She is partly veela but no one knows that except Ellie and I. She too is rather smart. Ellie and I fixed her hair so it isn't silvery blonde, as her genetics say it should be, thanks to us she has short strawberry blonde hair and light hazel eyes.
"They are so immature." Emma said, staring straight at the Marauders,
"I know." Lily said,
"Don't pay them any attention, that's just what they want." Ellie said, as McGonagall started to talk,
"This year, for one month in your muggle studies class, you will be doing a project. This project is called playing house. Seeing as I do not teach muggle studies, I will let Professor O'Neil explain it." she said, moving to the side of the classroom. Professor O'Neil moved to the front of the room. He was a tall middle-aged man, with brown hair and brown eyes.
"Okay, you will be partnered with a member of the opposite sex and you will be living with them for a month in a cottage provided by the school." He said in one breath, "together you will conjure a child, and take care of it for a month, you will basically be playing house. For one week you will be doing it without magic, but after that you will be permitted to use your wands."
"Your cottages are out on the grounds, you do not own them, you are expected to treat them with care, the same goes for your children. If they are treated badly, they will be taken from you and you will fail this subject." McGonagall said, "Your partners have been chosen for you already. They are as follows: Emmalille Greene and Sirius Black,"
Emma groaned, her and her friends weren't exactly friends with the marauders.
"Alice McKenzie and Frank Longbottom."
"Celia George and John Kenneth."
"Ellie Andrews and Remus Lupin."
Ellie winked at him jokingly, as he blushed.
"James Potter and Lily Evans."
Lily sighed angrily as James cheered loudly,
"Peter Pettigrew and Severus Snape. Oh, there seems to be a mistake there, oh well it's too late now." McGonagall said, and then she went through the rest of the list.
Finally when she was finished, Professor O'Neil walked slowly back up to the front.
"Now, gather in your partners, take out your wands." Professor O'Neil said, "and put the tips together, and repeat the words 'Plasture Hasta.' This will create your child."
There was a shuffling of movement as everyone moved towards their partners, "Potter! Hurry up, I can't believe I'm stuck with you." Lily said,
"Lily! You're looking fine today." James said gleefully,
"Whatever, let's just make a baby."
"Okay! More than happy to! I knew you would come around some day!" James said,
"Potter, nothing is going to happen between us." She said firmly, as they connected their wands, "Names. I'll choose a boy name, you can choose a girl name."
"Elle." He said,
"Harry." Lily said, "Now, thebaby."
"Plasture Hasta." They said in unision, Lily glaring at James angrily, but her gaze softened when she saw what was happening. A pink light shone from their connected wands.
"Congratulations Miss Evans and Mr. Potter, you are having a girl." McGonagall said, "You may take your wands back now."
"Elle Potter, has a nice ring to it, don't you think Lily?"
"She will be Elle Evans Potter. No that sounds weird, okay Elle Potter."
"Yay!" James said, as a crib formed in front of their eyes. There was a baby lying in it. She was wrapped in a pink blanket and she had beautiful emerald eyes, just like Lily's.
"Hello Elle!" Lily said happily as she picked up her daughter.
a/n: What do you think? Do you want me to make it Harry instead of Elle? Because I thought it would be sort of cheesy if I had Harry, it's up to you. Please Review!
