"Congrats on your pregnancy again, Molly. I don't know how you do it."

"Having a child is something wonderful," Steel said, holding her four-month enlarged stomach. "It's a love impossible to replicate. You'll see just how precious life becomes."

Both Mary and Lily smiled, but it seemed like one of them had more thoughts behind that. It seemed like her brain was connecting dots, but they were honestly just thinking of a to-do list she will need to bring up soon.

"Now, save the nice talks for later," Steel ordered. "Go and do something in this busy infirmary. Mega, come with me, I'll lead you to the Surgery Room. Falcon, dear, go and deal with the patient behind the closed drapes."

None of the girls objected.

Lily introduced herself, opening the drapes and closing them behind her. When she looked up from her clipboard, she was ready to scold her patient. Well, technically, she did do it.

"James Alexander Potter! What the fuck are you doing here?!"

"Well, it's the infirmary. One would obviously be in the infirmary if they got hurt."

The redhead glared at him as she grabbed the gauze and inspected his arm.
"I'm banning you from sex."

James Potter couldn't help the laugh that escaped him.
"You'll find out I am quite irresistible, Evans."

"I don't think so, Potter."

"We'll see, Falcon," that smirk was still stuck on his face.

She rolled her eyes, applying the gauze around his hand.

"You are a very beautiful, angry woman," Prongs spoke after some silence. "Someone should apprehend you for it."

She didn't know what to say, so she slapped him in the back of the head.

"Ow! Is that how Molly taught you to treat a patient? I may need to review Hufflepuff. You lot are supposed to be the better ones."

"I know who you are referring to, and I know I'm not included."

"Why not?"

"Did you manage to forget the Unassigned position you gave me?"

"Right," he leaned forward, placing his forehead on her collarbone.

"Come on, Potter. You have a place to order around. And, no, you cannot lounge all day in here."

"Are you sure?"

"You're ready to spring back to action. Just make sure you don't put pressure on that wrist for a while now."

"Mhmm."

She left and ignored his childish calls to her.

"Hello, dear," Minerva McGonagall greeted her guest. "Would you like a biscuit?"

"Tea would be nice too," Lily had learned that the Head of Gryffindor always had tea and biscuits lying around whenever one needed it the most. "Also, some information for why the sudden meeting?"

"Just wanted to make sure how you are doing."

"Well, it's not every day the Grand Minerva calls you into her office for a chat only."
