James smiled at Lily. "Hello."

"James. Look at Harry." She points to the picture in front of them, showing their baby boy in his crib, crying. "He survived."

James inspects his arms, almost as if looking to see if they were still there. "We didn't, I'm guessing?"

Lily purses her lips and shakes her head. "No. I suppose we didn't."

They sit in a heavy silence as they both contemplate being dead, taken from their own world to be dropped in this one.

They both jump as the picture on the wall shows Serverus Snape running toward the house. When he gets inside he ignores Harry and picks up Lily's body, cradling her in his arms.

James attempts to kick the wall. "The toerag, focus on my bloody son!"

Lily smiles. "He is just upset, is all. He will take Harry to Dumbledore. He isn't that stupid."

James's expression lightens when he hears the "that" in Lily's sentance. "We'll see."

When Snape walks out of the house without Harry, James is furious. "Yeah, just leave Harry lying there, you twit! THIS IS WHY YOU NEVER HAD KIDS!"

Lily wants to laugh but is concerned. What if her baby made it all this way to survive Voldemort but dies of neglectment? Then she realizes Dumbledore wouldn't let that happen. He couldn't, for Harry's sake, right?

James and Lily once again sit in silence, staring at their baby. Until James's curiosity gets the better of him. "I wonder if we could move this damn picture? To be focused on another place?"

Lily instantly knows what he is thinking. "James, even if we could make the picture focused on Sirius, we couldn't get a message across to him."

James frowns. "How do you do that?"

"Do what?"

"Know what I am thinking."

Lily laughs. "James, we went to school together for seven years! I dated you there, and we got married! I have spent enough time with you to know what you are thinking by now, don't you think?"

James rolls his eyes. "You didn't have to get on your high horse about it!"

Lily laughs again and moves closer to James. "Come on, don't be mad, dear. It looks like we are going to be spending a lot of time here together."

James smiles. "I wouldn't have it any other way."

James leans forward and sofly presses his lips to Lily's. "I hope we get a lot of time to do this."

Lily looks around. "I wonder how we can touch each other? If we died, does this mean we are in heaven? Where is everyone else?"

"You always have been curious, my dear. But we shouldn't think about that. Maybe we are here to watch over Harry. Maybe sometime in his life he will need us. I guess we will have to just wait and see."

Lily looks up at James. "Mighty philosophical there aren't you?"

"Oh, be quiet."

Lily bites her lip. "Well I suppose it could be true. We'll just have to wait and see."

James stands up and walks over to the picture. He touches it, and suddenly the setting is different. Instead of the familiar picture of Harry crying in his crib, staring at the body of Lily, the screen shows Sirius hearing the news in a Patronus from Dumbledore.

His voice says, "Sirius! How could you betray your friends like this? I never thought... They will find you, Sirius. What you planned to happen backfired. Voldemort couldn't kill Harry. I don't know why. But I assure you, I will find you, Sirius. How could you?"

James shakes his head. "No. Sirius would never..."

James and Lily watch as Sirius's face freezes in shock. He stumbles over to his couch and falls into a sitting position. Tears stream down his face. "James... Lily... Harry..." He puts his head in his hands. "How could I have let this happen? How..."

James steps back in suprise when Sirius's features turn stony mad.

"Pettigrew." Sirius whispers.

Lily touches the screen and it shows Harry once again.

James whispers, "It wasn't Sirius."

Lily nods slowly. "I know."

"It was... Peter?" It comes out like a question.

Lily closes her eyes and nods again. "I know."

James's hands ball into fists. "That lying prat!"

Lily hugs James. "It will be alright."

James's face whitens. "No, it won't. Dumbledore didn't see what we just saw! He thinks Sirius was the Secret Keeper! He thinks Sirius ratted us out to Voldemort!"

Lily's face goes pale as well. "When really, Sirius must have put Peter in the Secret Keeper position..."

"And we are the only people who know." James finishes.

Lily shakes her head."It will be okay. It will all be okay. It will."

But they both know she is just trying to convince herself.
