Secret
Rose Weasley stared at her cousin, Lily Malfoy, as the younger girl rushed happily around the Kitchen, preparing the food for this month's family get together. Lily seemed quite happy actually. A little too happy to Rose, considering that Rose knew that Lily despised family gatherings. Especially the ones held at her and Scorpius' house. This was because she knew that, inevitably, something was bound to be broken. Something Expensive.
'Alright, I give.' Lily looked up at her, her smile still in place, but her expression extremely confused. 'What is it?' Lily Cocked her head to one side.
'What is what?' she questioned back. Rose sighed exasperatedly.
'Your secret!' Lily smirked broadly.
'What secret, Ros?' Rose glared heatedly.
'Whatever secret it is that you are hiding from us all.'
'What is she hiding?' Ginny walked into the kitchen and set down a large dish before proceeding to hug her niece and her daughter.
'Lily.' Rose looked pointedly at the girl. 'Is hiding something from us.'
'Am not.' Lily protested childishly, despite the fact that she was twenty four.
'How do you work that out? Did she let something slip?' Ginny raised an eyebrow at her niece, ignoring her daughter.
'Nooo… she's just… ackk… too happy.' Ginny looked between the women and nodded before staring at her daughter expectantly.
'So, spill.' Lily rolled her eyes in annoyance at her mother.
'Mother, I am not-' Lily cringed as a shattering sound echoed through the house. 'That sounded expensive.'
'Sorry!' came the high-pitched voice of Lily's four-year-old nephew, Valliant. The three walked into the lounge room to see the black haired boy surrounded by shocked adults and looking like he might cry. James snapped out of it first and snatched up his young son, cradling him softly in his arms. He saw Lily in the doorway, His little sister staring silently at her shattered crystal vase.
'Lil, I'm so sorry. Val was just walking over to dad and he tripped on the rug and-' Lily looked up and smiled sadly at her older brother.
'It's fine James. Really, It's okay, I know.' Everyone looked at her with raised eyebrows as she bit her lip; her emerald eyes flitting back towards her ruined Vase. A small bell rang through the house 'Dinner's ready.'
'We'll get it.' Lily watched in slight amusement as her aunts and Grandmother headed towards the kitchen like a flock of birds, everybody else shipping off into the enlarged dining room. Lily frowned at the glittering crystal again.
'Auntie Liwy?' Lily felt a tug at her long skirt and looked down to see Valliant again.
'What is it Val?' She asked as she crouched down to his level.
'I'm sowwy. I broke-ed your big cup.' Lily smiled and ruffled his hair softly.
'It's okay Val, I know you didn't mean it.' The little boy threw his tiny arms around her neck and she kissed his cheek fondly. 'Now, go back to your dad, before he gets worried.' Valliant ran off to James again and Lily watched fondly as he lifted his son onto his lap. Valliant giggled as his father tickled his little belly. Then she looked to where her vase was. This one couldn't be reparo-ed.
She heard a sigh as Scorpius cuddled into her from behind and surveyed the damage. He waved his wand and the glinting pieces disappeared in an instant.
'You know,' He whispered into her ear. 'Even at times like these, I can't help but want one.' Lily grinned.
'Me too.'
'Soo…' he spun her around in one fluid motion 'Rose says you have a secret. Tell me.' Lily rolled her eyes and shook her head.
'No.' the two of them untangled from each other and entered the dining room.
'But you will tell me?'
'Maybe not.' Lily grinned wickedly at him.
For the rest of the day, Lily was badgered by all of her family about her supposed secret. At the end of it, she was ready just to climb onto a table and yell it at their faces. But then that would spoil her fun. She slowly slipped out of her day clothes and into her pyjamas. Crossing the room, she pulled back the covers and slid into the inviting bed. Lily yawned as she looked at the clock and frowned heavily at the late hour. Scorpius climbed in on his side and cuddled into her like usual, he yawned into her neck as he started to drift into a much-needed sleep.
'Tell me.' He commanded and Lily grinned at his halfhearted attempt.
'No.' Scorpius sighed and decided to just give up and go to sleep. He could just find out tomorrow. Ten minutes later, Lily smiled.
'Scorp…?'
'Mmmm?'
'You awake?' he mumbled incoherently into her neck. Lily turned so that she was facing him and Scorpius nuzzled his face into the crook of her neck and shoulder. She lowered her lips until they were level with his ear. 'You wanna know a secret?'
'Mmppff…' was the only reply. Lily smirked evilly.
'You're going to be a daddy…' Scorpius sat bolt upright in their bed and stared wide-eyed at his wife.
'Wha- what!?!'
