A/N: I posted this a couple days ago but since is my first fanfic ever I
had absolutely no idea what I was doing and messed everything up..Enjoy!
Prologue
"Please?"
"No."
"Please?"
"No."
"Preeeetty Pleeeease!?"
"Did you NOT hear me the first time Lily!?"
"James! I am shocked! After all I have done for you? I dated you. I married you. I even had your child and this is how you repay me?"
"You make it sound as if you had no choice." James trailed off pretending to look hurt.
"Oh come on Jamie, baby, it's just for one night and it'll give us all a big laugh. We really need a laugh nowadays especially!" said Lily pretending she didn't hear James's last comment.
"I don't care if you need a bloody laugh I am not giving in to your sick pleasures!"
"James you are being unreasonable."
"I don't care!"
"You don't seem to care about anything now do you Jamie?"
"I AM NOT WEARING A BLOODY PRINCESS DRESS AND THAT IS FINAL!"
Lily sighed and put the dress down. She glanced back at her brooding husband. Jamie had always looked cute when he pouted. She walked behind him a wrapped her arms around his waist. She kissed the back of his neck since that was all she could reach with out shoes on. She peaked at his face and noticed he was smiling. She ventured bravely again into the forbidden subject for one last try.
"Jamie?"
"Hmm?" he replied.
"Why don't you want to wear the dress. I made it just for this."
"Because I for one am male Lily dearest. And also because I am male Lily sweetness. And did I mention Lily darling, that I am male."
"Your point?"
"That I am male."
"I managed to get that much."
"Then what's the problem?"
"You won't wear my dress."
" I thought we went through this Lilykins."
"We went through that you are male and just because you have testosterone and have a penis does not mean that you are physically unable to put on dress."
"...." James frowned.
"Why can't I be Prince Charming?" James whined.
"Because that's what Sirius is."
"Why can't you be Cinderfelly? You are most fitting for the role."
"It's Cinderella and I can't be Cinderella because I am the fairy god mother."
"Can't Peter be the fairy god mother?"
"Peter's the rat."
" How ironic." James though out loud.
"Yes, I thought you Marauders would appreciate that."
"What's Moony again?"
" Your evil step dad."
"Wait a second.I though I had an evil step mum!?"
"Well I changed it around because he is a guy." Lily explained
Shoving Lily arms off of him James swung around hands on his hips.
"Lily if you changed the damn script around for Remus then why may I ask did you not change the script for your own husband!?" James said absolutely infuriated.
"I can't have Cinderella being gay now can I?"
Just then Sirius had walked in the room proudly showing off his prince outfit holding a little baby boy wearing a cute little pumpkin suit in one arm who was happily blowing spit bubbles from his mouth. He looked back and forth at his favorite couple who currently glaring daggers at each other.
"Did I come at a bad time?" he asked backing up a few steps.
"NO!"
"Alright then.." He said exiting the room as fast a he possibly could.
Sirius took his only godson into the living room were their "gang" was currently lounging in. He plopped down into the nearest chair and sat the little boy in his lap facing him.
"We don't wanna see Mommy knock Daddy's face in do we Harry?" he said in his cooing voice, which he reserved only for Harry. Harry shook his head enthusiastically. "Careful I don't want your brain to get knocked up." He said rubbing Harry's wild black hair.
"Oh my goodness how amazing to see that Black cares about something other than himself," said Miranda. Miranda was Lily's best friend. Let's just say that Sirius and her didn't mix well.
'She was alright', Sirius thought, 'She was damn pretty not pretty but damn pretty but she was about as friendly as a dragon well at least to me and Wormtail' It was true the only two people from the gang she didn't seem to like were him and Peter.
"Mirandy! Please contain your rude outbursts there is a child in the room, " he said covering Harry ears.
"If you ever call me that again I swear the first chance I get I'll-"
"What did I say about the outbursts Mirandy?" Sirius said in warning tone.
Just as Miranda made a dive at Sirius, Lily and James came in holding hands looking thoroughly snogged. Lily taking on her protective mother act marched over in time to block Miranda, seize Harry from Sirius, and scream,
"WHAT THE DEVIL ARE YOU DOING TRYING TO ATTACK MY BABY! YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE MY BEST FRIEND!"
".Lily I don't think she was after Harry. You do realize who Harry was with don't you?" He said rushing over to calm his hysterical wife.
"Oh my," she said looking at Sirius to Miranda.
"I'm sorry . you know how am about Harry's protection." She said quietly clutching a confused looking Harry tightly in her arms.
"It's ok. I'm sorry too I must learn to control my temper" Miranda said glaring at Sirius.
James wrapped his arm around Lily and looked around to the rest of his friends who were all just staring them shocked. Lily barely ever lost her temper. It was always James who went insane. James looked desperately at Remus one of his other best friends to change the subject. He immediately understood and asked if anyone would help practice his lines with him. Fiona and Padmaye, Lily's other best friends offered to help him but Peter always the more clueless of all of their friends continued to stare open mouthed.
Just then there was a familiar 'pop' from the fireplace that made everyone turn around. It was Dumbledore. He looked stressed for his old age and his glasses hung off of his nose. He looked around at everyone in the room and smiled.
"Hello to all! I hope all of you are well. I just need private word with James and Lily for a moment if you would excuse us."
"Sure come we can talk upstairs," said Lily smiling at her old headmaster. She hadn't seen him since he came to visit when Harry was born. " I think Harry needs a diaper change anyway," she said leading them upstairs.
They managed to hear Sirius saying " Oh that's what that smell was! I thought it was Peter."
When they reached the nursery Dumbledore apologized for interrupting their fun.
"It's quite all right, professor, we were just going to do this silly muggle play thing." Said James.
"It's not silly you know you love it James," Lily said lying Harry down on the changing table.
"So what is it you need to talk to us about?" asked James changing the subject.
"I can wait until your done," he said looking at Lily who was trying to get Harry out of his pumpkin suit.
When she had finished with Harry, Lily sat down in the rocking chair and Harry snuggled closer to "Ma!" and began to suck his thumb.
Dumbledore sighed. "This is not going to be fun to hear," he said looking from James to Lily and then Harry. " As you know I have many useful spies for the Order. "
Both Lily and James nodded they both worked part time for Order. "One of them has over heard a plan. A plan involving your son. Please let me go on without disruption or it will difficult to follow." He said to the couple who looked like they were exploding with questions.
"One of my spies has over heard a plan arranged by Voldemort himself. Apparently he has this creature in his possession, the Order is unaware of what is at the moment, but this creature is supposed to be some sort of prophet. This prophet, as we shall call it, has made a prediction about your son. Something that is most likely in the favor of the Order or else Voldemort would not be planning your son's demise"
"He's planning-"
"Silence! James please, I beg of you let me continue."
"Sorry but I just find that a bit unnerving-"
"Ahem. As I was saying. Yes the Dark Lord himself is planning the death of your child and I don't know why at the moment. I only know that the plan is supposed to take place October 31 and we must not let that happen. Therefor I advise that the Fidelius Charm would be the most effective method of survival."
" And what the bloody hell is a Fidelius Charm?" James asked he looked as if he was about to crack.
" It is a com-complicated charm used t-to conceal a certain s- something or someone by a s-single soul." Lily said this on the brink of tears she held Harry protectively in her arms almost as if she were afraid to let go.
"You will require a Secret-Keeper in order for the charm to work."
"Sirius will do it." James stated with confidence.
"I do not want to take any chances James. The spy said that there was some on in your close group of friends that has been giving information about you since Harry was born. I suggest myself for I am the only one I can trust with such a responsibility."
"Sirius would never betray us."
"James.. please," Lily pleaded tears now spilling freely down her face.
"I just. alright what do we have to do?" James said looking at his wife pleading face.
And so it was done the spell was cast two days later. James Potter and his lovely wife and child began their life in hiding on October 11, 1981 also James 22 birthday. They were taken to a remote island in the Mediterranean Sea, which was colonized by a Hogwort's fonder Godric Griffindor. It was there on that island were young Harry learned to take his first steps. It was there on the island were Lily Potter gave birth to both her second and third child. It was there on the island where the Potters remained for the next 15 years while the Dark Lord grew stronger waiting for their return.
Hello to Hogwarts
Chapter One: Life at the Hollow
Harry James Potter sat quietly in the breeze of the soft white beach outside behind his family's home. He had his pants rolled up to his knees and he wore a white button shirt which was only buttoned up half way revealing his dark olive complexion. His wild longest black hair blew peacefully in the wind and his dark perfectly green eyes stared out into the clear blue sea. His long legs were stretched out in front of him so that each time a wave would hit the shore the water rush up to his mid calf.
Sitting next to him in beach chair was Sarah Joanne Potter his little sister. She sat cross-legged in shorts and bathing suit top with a small sketchbook in her lap. She sketched rapidly glance up at him every few minutes and say some thing like "No! That's all wrong the eyes are too far apart!" and then erase half the page and start over.
Harry was far to use to this then to even care what the hell his sister was making him look like. Ever since Mum bought Sarah her first set of Crayons all she wanted to do was draw him. He asked several times my she didn't try drawing someone like Dad or something since he looked jut like him but she always had the same excuse, "I can't explain it, your very interesting to draw.I think it has something to do with your eyes." And when he told her to go draw Mum then she would just get mad and end some how getting him in trouble. Harry having common sense decided it was just best to leave the subject at rest unless he wanted to do all of Sarah, Jessie, and his own chores for a week. How Jessie managed to get involved was still a mystery to Harry.
Jessica Elizabeth Potter was Harry's other little sister. She was only six but was quick as a whip. She was so smart that Dad gave her private lessons like Harry and Sarah, except not nearly as challenging. Her daily curriculum consisted of playing and some simple charms along with some heavy reading.
Suddenly they heard Mum calling them in for lunch which knocked Harry out of his daydreams of what it was like out in the rest of the world. Sarah sighed frustratedly and told him she finish her sketch later. Harry watched as she dragged the beach chair inside. He sighed and got out hen he heard his Mum yell at him that to inside before his food got cold.
Sarah was eating her sandwich on the porch swing staring out at the beach. Harry sat down next to her grabbing the towel on the chair which he wiped his feet which and sat down next to her. She pointed to the table, which had another sandwich obviously for him, and he picked it up.
"Sarah?" asked Harry half way through his sandwich.
"Yes, Harry?" she replied in a slight daze still staring out at the beach.
"Do you ever wonder what it would be like if we didn't have to hide like this?" he asked quietly.
Surprised at this question she looked back at him with her dark auburn eyebrows raised.
"Every day." She replied.
"And what do you think are life would be like?" he asked in the same quiet tone.
"Well I always imagined us living in back in England and I guess you and me would be at Hogwarts. We would both be in Griffindor because that's the house Mum and Dad were in and we would have lots of friends and you would play Quidditch like Dad used to. Then on the holidays we would come home and have great big feasts. All of Sirius and Remus and Peter would be there along with Miranda and Padmaye and Fiona. And Dad would get that look in his eyes like he always does when he talks about his friends and Mum would be beautiful.." She sighed. She had apparently had imagined every thing all out.
"You do realize that we have never even met are godparents? Or we have never met anyone are own age? I mean that you're my best friend but you shouldn't be you know? I should have my friends and you should have yours but we still would goof around and annoy Dad and stuff of course."
Harry chuckled at that comment then suddenly looked sad. "I'm sorry." he said in almost a whisper.
"About what? Why are you apologizing?"
"Because it's all my fault.We wouldn't be hiding if it wasn't for me."
Sarah leaped of the swing hands on her hips looking furious. "Oh stop you idiot! It's not your fault you dumb prat! It's Voldemorts! I don't want to hear this stupid rubbish about you blaming this all on your self all right? Now promise me that you won't go this rubbish to me or anyone else, for that matter, again!"
Harry just stared wide-eyed at her for a moment before he burst out laughing. "Y-You sounded just like M-Mum."
Sarah continued to frown even further until she smiled wickedly and lounged on top of her laughing brother and began her assault.
Inside Lily heard what sounded like and angry Sarah and then followed by shrieks of laughter. She looked over at James who was sitting on the ground with Jessie playing dolls. James looked up at her then sighed and picked out Jessie.
"Lets go see what those two are up to now, the little devils." He said.
They were greeted by the site of Harry and Sarah having a serious tickle fight rolling around on the floor and laughing hysterically. James and Jessie exchanged smiles before leaping on top of both Harry and Sarah tickling like mad. Lily stood at the doorway smiling at the site. It was moments like this that made up for all the hardships the family had suffered.
"Come on Lils!" James shouted. "Come on and join the fun!" she smiled wider before shouting back, "I'm afraid I can't Jaime. I don't want to hurt the baby."
They stopped and stared at the smiling women all of them looking extremely disoriented until James relied, "Baby?!"
Lily laughed, "Yes baby, I'm pregnant."
