RATING: TBD.
STATUS: log; in progress.
James' utter delight at seeing such a tiny version of Lily turn up was short lived. As their teasing gave way to more serious topics, it became increasingly clear to him that Lily needed to be told about their future, lest she hear it accidentally without warning. While it would absolutely break his heart to do it, he also knew that he should be the one to break it to her. So they'd made plans to meet after breakfast the following day. He stopped in at the Leaky Cauldron to get two to-go cups of tea from Hannah before making his way to Ron and Hermione's. He knocked at the door, and Hermione answered. She gave him a sympathetic look and touched his shoulder. "James, you know I can tell-" He shook his head before she'd even finished. "I'd rather her hear it from me. But I'm sure she'll need your support afterward." She nodded, her lips pressed together in a line, before she invited him inside. "I'll go let her know you're here." |
