Snape leaned in closer to the large thick tree branch. “He’s leaving? They didn’t?” Snape whispered a small amount of relief settling inside of him. “Yes they didn’t. She’s’ still mine like that not yours”

Severus watched him at the door; he had pulled on a dark blue traveling cloak and was saying good-bye to Lily. Snape didn’t like the pleased look on his face. “Why is he so happy she didn’t agree to be his or was it that … kiss?” Snape asked himself. He continued to watch them. Lily was standing at the door holding herself as she watched James leave down the front walk.

James waved good-bye at the end of the walkway, and walked off a small smile playing at his lips.

“I don’t trust him, but at least they never.” Snape grimace with the thought was. It’s only a matter of time?

James was half way down the street when he became a stag and cantered away, one thought in mind. Well she not my girlfriend yet, but she will be. I just can’t imagine sex with him? James stag form shuddered at the thought as he ran making much better time this way. After all they didn’t live very close at all and if he wanted to get home before the sun rose he had to do it quickly. One thing he knew though this was a secret between him and Lily, he would never betray her trust and tell others about her child, with him yet? He still didn’t want to think the name.

The familiar shudder ran through him as he passed different square brick houses and some over grown vacant lots.

The New Year had come and gone Lily had seen neither Snape nor James. She was worried that she now repulsed James and Snape would hate her for not being happy with him over his involvement with the Dark Arts and becoming a Death Eater.

Lily dragged her trunk and a still baby size Crookshanks onto the train and found an empty compartment. Lily had finally shoved her trunk up in the luggage rack and then stuffed Crookshanks carrier in next to it after taking him out and letting him curl up on the seat. Lily sat down next to him and scooped him into her arms. Lily sat by the window looking out at the platform where many other students had been busy saying good-bye to family and greeting each other. Lily’s parents had said their good byes at home after telling her to have fun but not too much of it. Lily chuckled at that.

She closed her eyes leaning her head against the window listening to the sounds of others walking by banging into the walls as they passed one another.

The door slid open with a bang.

“Ha I knew she’d save us seats.” James clambered inside with his trunk and shoved it unceremonious up in the luggage holder. Lily was surprised but pleased as the four boys walked in or rather stumbled in with so many others all trying to get past them to find a cabin of their own.

“Hello guys.” Lily watched them all shoving trunks up above and taking seats. James had sat close to her; their legs were only a fraction apart.

“Hey Lily, these blokes don’t believe me.” James pointed at them.

Lily for a moment felt her stomach fall through the floor. He told them?

“Oh.” Lily couldn’t think of anything else to say, she didn’t expect him to blab right away to his friends, what they must think of her now.

“Yeah you’d think they’d believe me when I tell them I was at your place and we snogged good and long.” James gave them all dirty looks.

Lily laughed not just because it was funny but for the enormous amount of relief she suddenly felt.

Sirius also laughed. “Ha, looks like she finds it as funny as we do Prongs.”

“I knew she would,” Lupin laughed happily.
