The rest of the summer went by smoothly. Trips to Paris to shop, a trip to Greece, babysitting, many books were read, late nights with the girls, date nights with Scor, double dates with James and Gabby, and Albus and Katie, and pretty much everything in between. Rose had avoided us all summer, and I still hadn't told Scor why, the family had a couple of public appearances with dad, and at the Minister of Magic inauguration or coronation or whatever you call it.

I was sitting on the couch two weeks before school started reading a book when Moony swooped in with a letter. It was my letter from Hogwarts.

Dear Ms. Potter,

You're going to have a busy year ahead of you with all of the classes you are taking and your O.W.L.s and quidditch, but I am asking you if you would be interested in a tutoring program we are starting. You could choose your own subject(s) you would like to tutor. I would also like to know if you would like to be a prefect. There's also a list of books on the last page of this letter. I have also enclosed a list of tutoring courses and their times.

Sincerely,
Headmistress McGonagall.

I smiled at Nerva's formal letter before turning the page to her informal one. Moony screeched. Coco was chasing him around the house, poor little owl.

Good morning Lilly flower,

I hope your summer was wonderful. I'm pleased that you dropped divination. I was worried about what that would do to your O.W.L.s. I need to have a meeting with you let's say September 6th around 10:15. We have some things we need to talk about.

Have a great rest of the summer,
Auntie Nerva.

I looked over the courses of classes to tutor and I picked my three favorite Transfiguration, Charms, and History of Magic. The next week was spent taking trips to Diagon Ally and packing. I had a week left to finish packing, and at that moment I was sitting in my room checking everything I needed to put in my trunk. . . for the fourth time today. . . when Scorpius walked in my door. I jumped off of the bed and ran into his arms locking his lips with mine. I wrapped my legs around his waist as he walked to my bed laying me down without breaking the kiss. He pulled back when our shirts were off and my hands were running down his chest towards his jeans. "Ugh," he said pushing off of me, going to sit in my desk chair.

I sighed. I knew he wasn't going to give in yet. I mean it's not like we had been dating that long it just feels like we've been together for longer than it has really been with all the kissing and sneaking around we did at the end of the last school year. "Scor," I moaned trying to get my body to calm down.

"I'm not going to have sex with you yet, Lils, so stop please. This seriously hurts," he said looking at his lap.

That made me laugh because I knew it literally hurt him. "You know, James and Albus don't have that problem," I told him with a smirk.

"And way is that?" he asked me wearily.

"Because they put out, love," I said sitting on his lap, kissing down his neck finding his weakness – the spot where his neck meets his shoulders. He moaned and I turned kissing his mouth.

His mind must've started working through the lustful fog around us, because his grip on my hips tightened as he pushed me away. "No, Lily," he said picking me up and setting me on my bed before kissing my forehead, and walked out of my room. I knew where he was going, so I just followed him to Al's room. The door closed behind him. I sat against the door listening, "Dude, I think if I don't have sex with Lily soon she's going to rape me," this made Al and I both laughed.

"That's gross. I never knew my sister was such a horny little bastard," Al said jokingly. Oh he had no idea. "Do you want to?" Al asked.

"Hmmm?" Scor murmured.

"Do you want to, er, sleep with Lily," Al asked seriously.

"Yes, but I'm not going to even though we do love each other I'm not going to have sex with Lily yet. I want to wait. I want it to be special, but it doesn't help that she knows my weakness," he sighed.

"Please, God, please tell me my sister isn't giving you head!" Al said or I guess more accurately yelled. I had to laugh. I thought giving head was the grossest thing in the world, and Al knew that.

"Dude! You know how much she hates that," Scorpius laughed no doubt thinking about the conversation we had the other night.

"That's true, remember when we were talking about it at dinner one evening last year and she ran out of the great hall so she could throw up?" Albus asked him. Ugh that was the most disturbing conversation I have ever heard. "Yes, because I was the one who held her hair as she puked everything she's eaten in the past twenty four hours up," he sighed. I remembered that too. . .

"Oh my God!" James whispered so low that only we could hear, "Melanie Flint so amazing at giving head I think she's given every guy in my year a blowjob at least once."

I really didn't want to hear about this while I was eating, but they only continued. When they got into detail I quite literally got sick. I ran to the first bathroom I found. I started puking, and within seconds there were hands hold my hair up. "Shh, Lily," Scorpius whispered, "I'm sorry. We won't talk about it again. I promise," he whispered this over and over until I stopped puking and laid back against him.

"Scor, can you just take me back to the common room? I don't think I could eat anymore even if I tried," I asked. They knew I had a weak stomach did they really have to talk about that while we were eating? "Of course," he said picking me up, and carrying me to my dorm. "Sleep well, Lils," he whispered kissing my forehead.

Back in the present I laughed to myself remembering the story. Albus laughed too obviously remembering the death glares I gave him for a week after that, "Dude, you were so whipped even back then," Albus told him as if that was a bad thing.

"Like you're any better. The moment Katie walks into a room you stop breathing. You're just as bad as I am. " Scorpius told Al. he had a point. Albus practically worshiped the ground she walks on. Personally I thought they were worse than Scor and I.

"I don't think so, but whatever. Back to the topic at hand, you and Lily aren't sleeping together?" he asked sounding a little worried, but let out a deep sigh when Scorpius replied.

"No. Not for a while. With Gabby, Roxie, Katie, and Bridgett all being sexually active I think it makes Lils want to have sex more, and I'm not going to sleep with her if that's one of her reasons," he said.

How could he be so stupid? Just because all of our friends were having sex doesn't mean that's why I wanted to sleep with Scorpius. I got up, and opened Al's door. "I know you two were having guy time, but I need to speak to my boyfriend," I told them grabbing Scorpius' hand and pulling him into my room. The first thing I did was slap him in the face. "If you ever talk about our sex life or lack thereof with Albus ever again you won't have sex until we get married. Do I make myself clear?" I asked. He swallowed loudly then nodded. "Good. As for the reasons I want to be with you that way. One, I love you. Two, I want you. Three, I need to be with you. Four, just being close to you scatters my thoughts. Five, I am madly hopelessly in love with you and that is never going to change. Yes, Scorpius it does bug me that they are all sleeping with someone, but what makes me most upset is that you and I have basically a one hundred percent chance of actually being together for the rest of our lives, and you still won't make love to me," I told him.

"Lily, baby," he said reaching out to touch my face.

"Don't touch me, Scorpius," I told him, "just answer this. Why won't you sleep with me? You told Albus you wanted to, but you haven't yet?" I asked him.

"Because, baby, you're still so young. You just turned fifteen. What kind of man does that make me if I deflower a fifteen year old girl?" he asked me back.

"My age has nothing to do with this! Scorpius, either you want to be with me or you don't! Make. Up. Your. Mind." I told him turning away afraid of the tears I could feel threatening to fall.

"Lily Luna Potter, look at," he said gently. I turned so that he could see me, and I felt his heart break, "Don't cry, Lily," he said pulling me into his arms. I started to sob. I felt so rejected. I couldn't understand. Was I not pretty enough? I knew it wasn't that he didn't love me enough, but I just couldn't understand why. "Of course I want to be with you, you beautiful, silly girl, but we have all the time in the world to be together. We don't need to rush. We have already done so much backwards. I want to do a couple things in the correct order," he told me softly.

I couldn't deny that it was understandable. "Okay, but I'm not waiting until we're married or until we're engaged," I told him with a smirk.

He laughed, "That's fine with me," he said kissing my forehead.

***
The Next Day

For the longest time I'd been wondering what the war was like for Draco, and I owled him a few days ago asking if we could talk about it, because I'd only heard it from my father's point of view. "Hey, honey, can we go to your house? I want to talk to your dad about something," I asked Scor as we lay tangled on my couch.

"Yeah, that's fine," he said taking my hand and Appariting to his house.

We walked to the office where Draco was sitting reading some giganticly huge book. "Oh, good. You're here," he said smiling at us. "I'm guessing you didn't tell him why you're here if he actually let you come," Draco laughed.

"No. I didn't tell him why," I said turning to Scorpius. "I deserve to hear both sides of the War. If I'm going to become a part of this family sometime in the future I'm going to have to defend this family from those who don't understand your father's choices," I told Scorpius with finality. He sighed, but didn't complain, "Draco, my main thing is why? Why did you choose to be on that side of the war?" I asked

"Well most people thought my choice for choosing that side was because of blood purity, but really it was for my parents. I did what I thought I had to do to keep my mother safe, and to make my father love me," he sighed. I knew Lucius was a bitter man, but I didn't think he was incapable of loving his child. "My mother never agreed with Voldemort much, and he knew that, but she was a good little pure blood doing what he asked of her. I was scared he would do something to her after my father was sent to Azkaban, so I joined 'the cause'" he added the last part with air quotes. He pulled up his left sleeve showing us the scar that used to be his Dark Mark. "I can't even begin to tell you how much I regret the choice I made. I was young and stupid. I can almost feel the burning. I can still remember every single horrible thing I did back then. It was a miserable time, and I regret it every day," I didn't realize I was reaching out to touch it until I almost did. Draco pulled his arm back, "Don't touch it, Lils," he said gently.

He looked so sad remembering the war. "Draco," I whispered. Tears were falling down my cheeks. I needed to know, but now that I know I'm not sure it was worth it. Scorpius pulled me into his arms. Draco smiled at us like he knew some secret we weren't in on. It was the same look my parents had when they saw us together like this. "Why weren't you the least bit surprised when you found out I was with Scorpius?" I asked him. My parents always brushed it off with I asked them, but I knew there was something that they weren't telling me.

"You know how we all went back to school after the war? For our last year?" he asked me. I nodded. Dad had told me about that. "Okay, well, we were in divination one day and Trelawney had a prophecy out of nowhere she looked at your father and said something along the lines of 'the grandchild of the woman who betrayed the Dark Lord in his final hour and the daughter of the man who defeated the Dark Lord will parent the next hero of the wizarding world and the muggle world. It will be their first child. The child will be the best of both of them; that is what will lead the world to unification' I had no clue what she was talking about, but your father knew exactly what she was talking about. After class he caught up with me and said, 'Draco, our children are going to be the parents of the child in this prophecy,' I had no clue what he was talking about, so he continued, 'Your mum told Riddle I was dead, so she could make sure you were okay. She was the one, who betrayed the Dark Lord in his last hour,' I knew he was right. He had to be right. "We agreed to raise you apart, and let you choose to be together when the time came. Your mother's told both of us if we tried to stand in your way we would regret it until the day we died," Draco finished with a chuckle.

I looked at Scorpius who was just as shocked, and confused, and terrified was I was, "Do you know what she meant by that?" I asked Draco.

"Your dad talked to her, but she didn't know anything else. We've had other Seers look at your lives and they all see the same thing wizards and muggles all standing together and cheering. They all see a person that is obviously a mix between the two of you, but the way the person looks and sex change with every Seer we've talked to," he sighed.

I got up from Scorpius' lap. "Lils?" he asked.

I knew he could see the insanity I felt in my face. "I need to . . . I need James. I promise I'll be back in a little bit. I. . . I just need to, uh, talk to, uh, James," I rambled.

Scorpius got up and wrapped his arms around me restraining now rather than comforting. "We need to talk about this, Lily," he told me.

I pulled out of his arms. "Don't you think I know that? This changes everything! Damn it! I just wanted to be normal for a little fucking while, but no I have to fall in love you and we have to be the future parents of the person who unites our worlds for the first time in three fucking millennia!" I exploded. I knew it wasn't his fault, and he looked upset. I put my hands on his face. "I love you so much, more than I thought was possible, and, baby, I don't regret it for a second," I told him before kissing him so deeply I'm sure he could feel all of my pint up emotions.

He leaned his forehead against mine for a minute getting his breathing under control. "I love you, too, sweetheart. Go talk to James. I'll pick you up from his flat around, er, six thirty, and we can have dinner somewhere?"

It all made perfect sense now. Why everyone always hovered over me, why the protected me like their lives depended on it. I understood everything now. I walked through the house to the library. Astoria stopped me just before I reached the door. . .

(Astoria's Point Of View)
"Lily?" I asked when I saw the beautiful small girl walk towards the turned around, and looked at me. I could tell she'd been crying. She looked at me for a second before sliding down the wall she had her back against to the floor. Her knees were pushed up to her chin. She started to sob before she could stop herself. I went over to her and wrapped my arms around her small frame. I was going to kill Draco. I had just left him and Scorpius after hearing Lily screaming at our son. I can't believe he told them like that! What was he thinking? "Sh, it will be okay. We'll be here the entire time. I promise we're not going to let you and Scorpius do this alone. It will be okay," I murmured as she sobbed into my chest. After about five minutes she stopped. She was going to be okay. I could tell by the light I saw enter her eyes as she looked at me.

She smiled at me for a moment before whispering, "I hope it has your eyes."

I chuckled. My eyes had been the reason Draco said he fell in love with me. They were this light shade of grossularite green Draco thought they were beautiful. "Thank you. Are you okay?" I asked. She nodded, so I continued, "It really will be okay, Lily. In the end everything will be the way it should've always been," I told her kissing her forehead. "We will have true peace for the first time in thousands of years."

(Lily's Point of View)
After my conversation with Astoria I couldn't stop smiling. She really made my day. I was smiling when I stepped out of James' fireplace until I realized why I was there. I looked at the little watch charm on my charm bracelet and realized I only had about an hour and a half to tell him everything. "James?" I called walking through the house. I found him in the kitchen trying to make spaghetti. "James?" I asked again tapping his shoulder.

"Bloody hell, Lily! You do understand Fluing to people's houses unannounced is not a smart thing to do, right?" he asked me totally over reacting.

"Sorry," I mumbled. All my earlier worries coming back, "I just need you, Jamie," I hadn't called him that in years, so he knew something was wrong.

He helped me back over to the couch and sat down pulling me into his lap, "Lily? What's wrong? Are you pregnant?" he asked getting all worked up about nothing.

"No. No. No. We're not having a baby. It's just there was a prophecy given many years ago about a child that would unify both worlds, and, uh, it seems that child will be mine and Scor's. I'm scared," I told him leaning my head onto his shoulder. How was I going to raise my children knowing my first born would be the wizard or witch that brought peace between the two worlds?

"Lils, you are going to be able to do this, and we will all help you. God knows I would never let you do this without my help. Are you going to tell Gabby?" he asked. Of course he would be worried about that.

"I haven't yet. I just found out myself, but I was going to tell her tomorrow when we go to London to do some shopping with Aunt Fleur. I was wondering if when the time comes if you and Gabby will be this baby's Godparents. I'll have to talk to Scor about it, but I'm sure he'll be fine with it," I told James curling into his chest.

"I'd love that, and I'm sure Gabby would too. Sleep a little bit," he said kissing my forehead, and with that I fell asleep pretty much instantly.

I woke up with someone whispering dirty things in my ear, and their hand was up my shirt. "I hope this is my boyfriend or you're going to get hexed into oblivion," I said without opening my eyes

"Good thing I am your boyfriend huh?" Scor asked before he kissed me. I moaned into his mouth as he crawled on top of me and pressed his body against mine deepening that kiss.

"I might be the only person in the family who couldn't careless that you two are together, but damn it! Not on my fucking couch," James 'scolded'. I giggled and kissed Scor's temple. "You seem to be in a better mood," James observed.

"I am. I decided I'm not going to worry about anything until the time comes that I need to," I told him before looking at Scorpius. I looked him up and down and noticed he was wearing sweat pants and a t-shirt. "I thought we were going out for dinner," I asked.

"We were, but James ordered in, and Katie, Al, and Gabby will be here in about half an hour. We're have a 'slumber party' as Gabby called it." he laughed before turning serious, "Lily, my dad's having some sort of gala tomorrow at the house, and after when happened today my mother wants you there," he spoke so fast I could barely understand him.

"Okay. That's fine. Why are you so worried about it?" I asked running my hands through his hair. "My grandmother's going to be there," he practically whispered. "Well, that's fine. We saw her couple of days after Teddy and Tori brought Dora home," I told him. I really didn't mind telling her earlier, but I knew there was something else going on he wasn't tell him me about,

"Baby, what is it?" I asked pulling his face up, so he had to look at me.

"Well, you have to cancel your shopping trip. Mom promised that you two would go to Paris the day after tomorrow and get whatever you wanted from wherever you wanted, but she wants you two have a spa day or something like that with her," he rambled. I loved spa days! This would be fun!

"Okay, but how is that going to work with there being a gala later on in the day?" I asked.

He laughed, "My mom as a spa in her bathroom, you two will have whatever you need done tomorrow before the gala," he told me.

"Okay, can we live there when we get married? I'd love to have my own personal spa," I giggle as he pulled me off the couch.

He looked at me oddly, "We'll go look at houses after I actually put a ring on your finger, Lils."

He was ruining whatever high I was on, "Fine."

About fifteen minutes later everyone was there and Al was in the cupboards getting out every single bottle of alcohol James had. "Albus, what are you doing?" I asked him chewing on a slice of the pizza that had just arrived.

"We're going to play never have I ever," he said sending me an evil smile.

"Lovely," I said sarcastically taking another bite of my pizza. The last time they made me play this game last Christmas holiday I ended up making out with one of James' friends because I was beyond drunk.

Scor wrapped his arms around my waist, "Come on, Lils, please don't ruin our fun," I looked into his eyes pleading with me to play with them. "Fine. Fine. Fine. I'll play," I told them. This is going to be a long night.

"Never have I ever fucked either of my brothers!" I practically had all ganged up on me. It really wasn't fair I was almost drunk off of my ass. Katie and Gabby drank their shots.

"Never have I seen Lily naked in the past ten years," James said.

Damn it. I saw myself naked every day. That sounds stupid. Whatever. I gulped down the Vodka along with the girls and Scor whom I looked at because it was his turn, "Never have I ever made out with Katie," he said looking smugly at Al. Everyone drank a shot of vodka besides Scor and James. "Lily?" he asked me. I just giggled.

"Never have I ever worn a thong," Albus said. That time we all burst out laughing and we girls and James drank. "James?" Albus asked.

James just shrugged. "Never have I ever broken someone's heart," Katie said.

I sighed glaring at her, "Yeah because you've been with Albus since you were twelve," I grumbled while I drank my shot along with the others beside Scorpius. I laughed, "Scor, that's not true! I remember in third year that blonde chick tried to get in your plants, and you turned her down flat. You even made her cry." He rolled his eyes, but drank whatever he had just poured in his glass knowing I was kinda right.

"Hmmm, Never have I ever hooked up with a teacher," Gabby said looking pointedly at James. I had to laugh as he drank.

"Who?" I asked James.

"The really sexy student teacher thing in charms class during my sixth year," he told me with a laugh while Gabby smacked him. "Never have I ever had a crush on a friend's parent," He laughed looking pointedly at Albus who drank.

Scor laughed so hard. "I wouldn't laugh, Malfoy. It was your mum he had a crush on," James said laughing as Scor ended up looking horrified.

"Mate, that's gross. She is only like a year younger than your mum," Scor said getting up from his spot next to Al to sit behind me.

We played this until about three in the morning before curling up with our significant others on one of the mattresses on the ground. The night had been a whole hell of a lot better than I thought it would have been, surprisingly. I knew I was going to wake up with a horrid hangover the next morning. Hopefully Gabby brought some of the hangover stuff her dad extracted from some plant was my last thought before drifting off to sleep.

A/N: I'm sorry this chapter is a little choppy. I wrote it over a few days time, because I didn't have a day where I could just sit down and write. Again I'm sorry if it is a bit confusing.
