Chapter 12: a Surprise that will last a life time
Lily was looking at Severus and was so glad that she was able to see Severus again.
"how are you feeling?" Severus asked smiling
"much better just sore." Lily answered
"that's good! Lily darling I'm so sorry" he said
"its okay Severus well at least we know that James is dead. And he wont bother us any more." Lily smiled
"yeah." Severus kissed Lily and Lily kissed Severus on the lips.
A week or so later Lily got her strength back and was able to walk again. When she went to the bathroom she knew that her period was late. She was a little worried at first but went to the store to get a pregnancy test. Severus knows nothing about it and she doesn't want to get his hopes up while she was in the bathroom waiting for the results…
Severus was watching Television and Lily sat next to him on the couch. Lily put her arm around him and stared at him
"how may I help you Lily flower?" Severus asked just now giving her the nickname
"want to go to the waterfall? I have something for you there." Lily asked him.
"oh alright anything for you." Severus and Lily got up and walked with each other to the waterfall. When they arrived the scenery was as beautiful as ever. Well Lily thought anyways.
"so what it is Hon?" Severus asked staring into Lily's eyes
"well, I don't know how to say this but….I took a pregnancy test yesterday….." Lily said hesitating
"and…what's the answer?" Severus was nervously waiting for the answer
"we're having a baby Severus!" she said Severus was so excited that he was speechless and picked up Lily giving her a huge hug.
"Oh my LILY! I'm so happy were going to be mommy and daddy!" she wasn't expecting that Severus would be this happy.
"we need to go to the doctor! See when the baby is due!" Severus was shaking uncontrollably.
"okay okay Sev. We'll go! Come on!" Severus grabbed Lily's hand and headed to the hospital.
When they got there, Severus couldn't speak he was so stunned and feeling all these emotions at one time he was just so happy.
"can I see Dr. Logan?" Lily asked the nurse at the window.
"okay he will be with you in just a few minutes." When Lily signed in she and Severus sat in the waiting room.
"Mrs. Evens?" Dr. Logan said when he opened up the door.
"yes that will be me." Lily got up and Severus did as well.
"this way…" when Dr. Logan, Lily and Severus walked into a small room. The Dr. shut the door.
"how may I help you Mrs. Evans?" Dr. Logan asked
"I took a pregnancy test and it read that I was pregnant. I just wanted to make sure its true and how far along I am. And please call me Lily." She answered holding Severus hand.
"Alright then lets do an Ultra sound. Next door to your right I will be with you in a moment." The Dr. said
Lily went into the next room and laid down on the table and Severus sat in this small chair next to the door way. Then the Dr. came in and setting up.
"okay Lily lets see here…." It took a few minutes but Dr. Logan spotted something.
"yup here's a little heart beat. You are pregnant. And you are one month along you should be due in December." Lily and Severus was so happy
"Lily I suggest if you want to know the gender come see me six months and I can tell you." Printing the pictures for Lily and Severus to keep.
"thank you so much Dr." Lily getting up and Severus helping her down.
"we will see you then" Severus said and walking out of the room.
"have a nice day you too." The Doctor said.
"you are wonderful babe! What are we going to name it?" Severus asked.
"I don't know I tell you what if it's a girl you name it if it's a boy I will name it! That's what my parents did with me my father named me". Lily suggested
"alright then if it's a girl I want to name it Rose. After my Aunt, she was so good to me. She was my favorite " Severus answered.
"okay if it's a boy I want to call him Harry. I want to name him Harry because my father. He would be so proud"
