Wormtail took the hint and raised McGonagall to her feet with his wand, leading the way and having McGonagall trail after him as though on a leash.
"Mum won't let you touch her once it's out," Peter told her, letting Jess lean on him completely. She did weigh more than expected, but he didn't let it show.

"Meh..." Jess felt some serious kicking going on, as if signaling to her mum that she didn't want to leave her cozy spot. "As awfully cliche as it may sound, I've sort of grown attached to the little robe stretcher." She patted her stomach where she felt the kicking and smiled up at him. "Gets me out of classes at the very least. Not to mention your parents seem to like me more."

"Well, maybe you've grown as a person," suggested Peter, looking down at Jess. "And it's not a bad thing that you love her. We're supposed to, you know."

"I think I've grown a lot as a person." Jess glanced down at her stomach, which she could barely see past anymore. "But I know what you mean. Something about having this little...life growing and depending on me has sort of shifted my thinking, I suppose."

Peter gave her a kiss. What a little saint she was. "Not that there was much room to shift," he told her, smiling broadly.

Jess begged to differ, but instead of protesting she just gave him that cute little smile of hers. "Speaking of shifting, I think I need to get my measurements done as soon to the wedding date as possible. Gueneivere has been moving around alot in the past few days so I don't want to end up getting my dress robes and then having them not fit right because she decided to change position again."

Peter looked nonplussed. "Well, do they need to be done a while before the wedding?" he asked. He really wasn't the right person to ask about this. He was just a boy.

Jess shook her head, though somewhat uncertainly. "I think they need about a day or so to actually make them, but people usually get measured a week in advanced." She rubbed her stomach, feeling her baby getting all excited. "I know, I know, you can't wait for the big day either." She looked up at Peter with a small grin. "She always gets active whenever we talk about the wedding."

Peter smiled affectionately at the enormous stomach that was his child. "Good girl," he said, tickling Jess's stomach.

Jess chuckled, partly at his light touch and partly because the baby seemed to be trying to get back at her daddy, or at least that's what those fluttering kicks seemed like. "I think she already knows who you are. She's rather smart."

Peter looked up, amused. "Yeah? That's good. I like smart. She thinks you're smart," he confided to his daughter.

Guen kicked back at him, making Jess smile. "Maybe she'll be Head Girl too." Feeling a little tired from standing up so long, Jess flopped back onto the bed, making sure to avoid the stacks of clothing as she rested her head on the pillow. "Come here." She pulled Peter down next to her and wrapped her arms around his neck, nuzzling into his chest. "Are you happy?"

Peter nodded, embracing Jess. It was getting progressively harder as Gwen grew. "I'm very happy," he told her quietly. "Are you? Happy?"

Jess looked up at him for a moment, watching his eyes and feeling her baby kicking and hearing Darts hop around his cage. It wasn't a bad scene at all. She nodded, leaning in to kiss him. "I would say so."

"I love you very much," Peter told her earnestly. "And I can't wait for graduation. We'll both get to spend all of our time raising Gwen."
