This Roe v. Wade thing is so fucking stupid, the amount of "Christians" or the pro-life people I've had to fight of is insane. But that's what I get for living in a conservative Idaho town. If anyone lives in Ireland or the Uk, can I come over? Maybe stay forever?

I can't believe none of us noticed, especially myself, it's so obvious now. James just stares across at regulus whenever he can, big heart eyes in place. Honestly it's disgusting how cute it is. "What are you thinking about?" Marlene asks, she places her hand over mine and smiles. "James and Regulus" she looks confused. She doesn't know.

"You don't know?" I put my quill down and move the essay out of the way, she watches still with a confused look. "What do I not know?" She says moving closer. "That Reggie and James are together? And that he's pregnant." Her mouth drops in shock, eyes widening. "What? Are you for real?" She climbs onto my lap and stares at me. "Yes marls, James knocked Reggie up. He told us last night and we all freaked out, I think panda cried. Evan and Barty were super mad. It was intense"

She puts her head down into my shoulder and sighs, shaking her head a tad. "That's fuçking crazy. He's the last person I'd expect to be so careless, I thought Sirius would be the first dad if I'm completely honest." That makes me snort out a laugh, she joins in as we laugh into each other.

"Hey Mary, lily." They are laying on Mary's bed cuddled together, they look over and smile. "I have crazy news to share with you guys" setting my bag down on my bed and watching them sit up. "What? Did Dorcas tell you a joke again?" Lily says smiling, rolling her eyes and grabbing her slippers. "No, no something actually serious." Mary perks up and looks over from her watch. "How Sirius?" Lily smiles and shakes her head. "I mean like someone is pregnant." Lily whips her head around and looks at me. "Don't say what I think you are going to." I sit on my bed and stare at her.

"What do you mean? Lil do you know something?" Mary is climbing across her bed to lily. She shakes her head. "Well, James got regulus pregnant. And they are together, like James wants to mate him." Mary gasps and covers her mouth, lily sighs and puts her head back onto Mary's shoulder. "Yea I knew, but I was waiting for James to tell everyone." Lily says, Mary frowns and looks at lily. "You didn't even tell me?" Lily kisses her cheek. "Because it wasn't for me to say." Rolling my eyes I start grabbing books.

Whispers.

Whispers is all I hear constantly, most of it's the same, "regulus is always wearing James potters clothes" or "regulus is fat and James potter is the reason" some like, "regulus doesn't stay in the Slytherin dorms anymore because he is sick of his friends." That one is just stupid, I love my friends. I just need to be with James, he makes things feel less impossible.

Something smooth and soft fits into my hand, I instinctively flinch backwards into someone, making me jump at the contact. "Hey, hey it's okay, your okay." James says, bringing me into his arms. He kisses my head and holds me closely. "Sorry I didn't mean to flinch again." James just hums and kisses me again. "It's okay love, I don't mind, your working through it at your own pace, that's more then I could ask for. I love you no matter what." He rocks us back in forth slowly in the hallway.

"People are talking about us. It's not been crazy yet though. I don't think the news got out yet." James hums, slowly rubbing his hands over me. "Don't Listen to them, they don't know the whole story." He kisses my head and moves away, making me whine without meaning too making him chuckle. "Such a cutie." He blows a kiss, walking away so I can go into class. I catch other students watching me for a little to long, I pull James' shirt down further.
