"Listen up!" I said, trying to calm down the classroom full of teenagers, a thing every teacher found very hard.

"Yeah, I know," girl in the front row said to her friend, "that guy from Twilight is stupid."

I didn't care if she was talking about Edward or Jack, because what she said was quite amusing. After all, the old fangirl gang on Tumblr was slowly maturing.

"Please be quiet! There are only ten minutes left!"

It didn't work and I sighted. The oldest class I was teaching lost their interest in Physics as soon as the clock above the blackboard moved for twenty minutes.

"Listen up now!" I said way louder than usually.

Class went quiet slowly and even then children were whispering. I was sure my class wasn't like that.

"Since it's only the second day of the new school year, there will be no homework, though I'd really like to give you some since nobody listens to me." I looked at the back of the class, where two girls and a boy were loudly whispering about the boy's brother's gayness.

"Yeah, he's wearing pink and glitter all the time."

Girls giggled and I coughed to get their attention.

"I know it's interesting for a guy to like glitter, but may I remind you that even powerful wizards like glitter."

A boy in third row coughed, but it sounded suspiciously like 'Magnus Bane'.

Everyone finally went silent and I continued. "As I said, there will be no homework, at least one connected with what we'll be doing this year. You have six months to research time travel and its possibility. You are free to do anything you want, even build a Delorian if you think it helps. Six months is a lot, so I hope to get at least fifteen good reports. I did that the last year with your predecessors and I was really happy with what they did. Good luck."

School bell rang and I headed to science teachers' office to pick up my car keys and a coat.

"Hey," said one of my co-workers that taught History and was heading to the parking lot as well, "how's the baby?"

"Which one?" I grinned. I've been pregnant for the second time now and couldn't tell if my closest friend from work was referring to Susan or them.

"You know which one," she pointed at my stomach, "that one."

"It's going well."

"Do you know what gender they are yet?"

"No," I answered, "Though I hope it's a boy. Two girls are really stressful to have I think. Just look at me and my sister."

"Where does she live now? Norway?"

I shook my head. "Sweden."

"Oh, right. How is she?"

"I've never seen a cuter couple than her and Loki."

"When you say his name I always think of Tom Hiddleston."

I laughed. "That's what most people say."

"Do you have time to visit us? We should definitely do that this weekend or something."

I nodded. "I'll ask William and then we can arrange it."

We reached my car. "Say hi to him and Susan in my name," Anna said.

"And you to Phillip and the twins," I said before she walked to her car.

I climbed inside my car and turned on the engine. While driving home, I was thinking of what I had to do before I give birth again and on the top of the list, there was getting doctor's degree.

Arriving into 11b flat, I was surprised to see William playing with our daughter in middle of the room. She was really bright for her age, I think and I was expecting her to start talking in four or five months.

"Hello, you two," I smiled, putting down my coat and the shoes, before sitting down beside them and picked up Suzan from the floor, where she was sitting before, stretching out her hands.

"Hello sweetheart," I said, "how was your day?"

"Ma!" she babbled out reaching to my hair.

"What did we say about mom's hair, Suzan?" William asked, chuckling.

Susan babbled out something that sounded somewhat like 'no, dad' and we laughed softly.

"What did you two cook?" I asked.

"I was thinking of ordering pizza for us two."

"You know it's not healthy," I answered, "I'd love to have spaghetti though."

William smiled. "Should I warm up something for Suzan?"

"Yeah, I think she'll be hungry soon."

William nodded and started cooking. I put her down to stand up and picked her up again, walking to her highchair and putting her down.

"Listen, do you think we should choose the name sooner this time?"

"We don't even know the gender yet," William answered, walking around the kitchen.

"We can be more prepared than the last time."

"You're right ... I guess."

"I'm choosing the first name now, don't I?"

William nodded.

"I was thinking about ... James for a boy, and Lily for a girl?"

"I like it," William nodded. "What do you think about second name being Valentine for a boy and Emily for a girl?"

"Where did you get Valentine?" I asked.

"He's my favourite villain in Mortal Instruments," he answered, shrugging.

"But if he goes evil, it's your fault," I smiled. "If he will be he."

"Don't worry. If the baby is a boy, then he'll be the sweetest boy in the whole multiverse."

I felt happy, as I didn't since Emily left.

After dinner, Susan soon fell asleep and for the rest of the day, William was reading me Harry Potter. I fell asleep on his lap.
