XCI. Asking
"You haven't asked her to marry you yet?"
It was August - just after Harry's first birthday - and Sirius was on the porch talking to James. "There's never a good time," he insisted. "She's always busy."
"She's having your baby, mate, she's going to slow down sometime."
"Yeah." Sirius watched baby Harry crawl madly through the grass. "I s'pose. I just don't know how to do it. How did you ask Lily?"
"Lily asked him," Lily called from her place next to Harry.
"It's true," James said. "I was too nervous. She had to do the asking, in the end."
