Hey guys, I'm excited to make chapter 5! And I got another review! *does happy dance* Follow their lead and start reviewing like crazy!

J.K. Rowling owns all! Except for the plot of course.

"POTTER! GET YOUR LAZY ARSE OVER HERE RIGHT NOW!" Lily screamed as she started pacing the sitting room.

"Alright, alright, I'm here! What's wrong?" James asked. He immediately knew that he said the wrong thing, because Lily shot daggers at him immediately.

"What's wrong? WHAT'S WRONG? YOU ATE THE LAST SUGAR QUILL IS WHAT'S WRONG?" She yelled, punching and kicking him repeatedly. Normally, James would get mad and/or irritated by this, but he was just too used to it lately to care much. Plus, he knew that this was just her hormones. "I get down here, exhausted and craving a Sugar Quill, I go to the stash in the pantry, but they're not there. Not one." Lily started tearing up and James, sighing, placed his arms around her. Hugs these days were a little awkward because Lily's baby bump was starting to form, but James didn't care. She was having his kid (a boy, they found out as soon as possible to settle what color to paint the room), she was his wife, and she loved him, so nothing could ever be wrong when it came to Lily.

"Love, it's okay. We can go to Hogsmeade today and pick up your body weight in Sugar Quills." He stopped as soon as those last few words came from his mouth. She pulled away, those green eyes wide with disbelief and anger. If looks could kill, James would have been dead a long time ago. but, they couldn't, so there James was, but looks can definitely terrify.

"Are you calling me fat?" James shook his head vigorously. He was too scared to speak, because usually whatever he said often pissed her off even more.

"Oh no, James, don't worry about the Sugar Quills. I'm sure it would deplete all of our savings to get my weight's worth in Sugar Quills." She said sarcastically. "I bet, if we got my weight in Sugar Quills, they would fill the whole entire house! Now that I think about it, they probably wouldn't let us buy that many because then they would have to go out and restock their whole entire inventory!" And with that, she stomped on his foot and stormed into their bedroom. James sighed and ran his fingers through his hair nervously. His foot hurt rather horribly, and he sat down. He thought of what he could do to make it up to her, and his gut told him that it had to involve Sugar Quills. He knew what he would have to do. It would take a lot of convincing, not to mention quite a good amount of money, but it was doable. He set off to Hogsmeade, determination in his eyes.

Lily looked at the clock. She had been sulking for four hours. Normally, she would sulk for an hour before he came up, because he wanted her to have some time to calm down. Then, once he came, he would wonder whether or not to make his presence known for five minutes, but she always knew he was there. Then once he made his decision (which was always to make his presence known), he would lie on the bed next to her, but she would pretend to ignore him, but she always wanted to turn around instantly. He would always call her a bunch of names, or would keep pulling on all of her curls like he did in their first year of Hogwarts for twenty-five minutes, before she gave in and acknowledged her presence, giving off the impression that she was still upset, but in reality, she was always trying to fight off a smile. He would always console her for a hour and a half, but he would always say something at the end that would rub her the wrong way, so she would get up to leave. He would always follow her, he would always apologize, and she would always forgive him. They would always end up lounging around for another two hours, then she would get up to cook and he would help for about thirty minutes(cooking was a lot quicker when you had magic). Then, after they ate, she would always rest her head on his chest and say that she loved him as she dozed off and he would say that he loved her too.

Always.

But now, he wasn't there to do it, and she was becoming more and more worried by the minute. At first, she thought this was just a tactic to get her to forgive him, but James wouldn't do something like this. Lily got off of the bed and made her way to the stairs, making sure to check every nook, cranny, and crevice as she went. It was dark now, so she lit her wand so she could see where she was going. She was walking down the hall, when she heard the creak of the stairs. Curiously and nervously, Lily walked towards the staircase, when she saw none other than James Potter, trying to sneak upstairs. Upon seeing Lily, he stopped dead in his tracks. His hand jumped to his hair, and Lily rolled her eyes.

"Oh! Hey…Lily. What are you doing?"

She said nothing. She just slowly walked forward until she was a step above him. He smiled nervously. Her expression was stone-cold, with no indication of changing. But it did start to change, much to James's horror. Instead of the cold look, a face of pure rage replaced it.

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU PUT ME THROUGH? I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO COME BACK FOR FOUR HOURS! BUT DO YOU COME? NO! WHAT HAS BEEN SO IMPORTANT THAT YOU HAD TO MAKE YOUR WIFE SIT THROUGH THAT LONG PERIOD OF TORTURE?" She yelled, too angry to notice the look of fear on his face.

"Lily, I'm sorry. I was in Hogsmeade with-" Before he could say the name, she slapped him across the face.

"You were out with another woman? How dare you! In all my years with you, I'd have never thought that you would actually dare to galavant all around Hogsmeade with some woman, leaving your pregnant wife behind! You must really like this girl, why don't you just run away with her to Scotland and marry her?"

"Well I don't know about marriage," he says, rubbing the side of his face, "I would gladly galavant, but I don't think Sirius is very big on the idea of marriage."

Lily almost smiled. Almost. She was too angry to smile. "Oh joke it up. Just like you always do. I don't think you ever cared about me. Or ever will."

At this, all of James's pent up anger from the last few months just burst out, "Never care? NEVER CARE? WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU EVER DARE THINK THAT I WOULDN'T CARE? WHO WAS THE ONE WHO ASKED YOU OUT REPEATEDLY UNTIL YOU FINALLY SAID YES? WHO ALWAYS CONSTANTLY BADGERED YOU UNTIL YOU AGREED TO FINALLY GO TO HOGSMEADE? WHO WAS THE ONE WHO CONSTANTLY CHASED AFTER YOU DAY AFTER DAY, CLASS AFTER CLASS, HOUR AFTER HOUR, TO TRY AND GET YOU TO GIVE ME A SECOND GLANCE? IT WASN'T SNIVELLUS, IT WASN'T REMUS, IT SURE AS HELL WASN'T SIRIUS, SO WHO COULD IT BE? OH, MAYBE IT'S THE PERSON WHO IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU! THE PERSON THAT BLOODY MARRIED YOU! IF I NEVER CARED ABOUT YOU, THEN WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU POSSIBLY THINK THAT I NEVER CARED ABOUT YOU?" Then, he lowered his tone, "If you think that I don't care about you, then I think that you need to think a bit more carefully."

Lily struggled to say something, but couldn't. How could you answer to that? Upon noticing her lack of words, James turned and stormed out of the house, slamming the door behind him. And Lily was left alone.

Possibly forever.

And that was chapter 5! I know it ends on a sad note, but it will get better. I mean, it has to be. But anyway, review everybody! I know it has been a while since I updated, but here I am updating! So, you should review. But, it's not like you have to or anything…but it would be nice…
