St. Mungo's Maternity Ward
"Oh, it's a beautiful baby girl!" said the attending Healer.
"Jennifer," muttered an exhausted Lily.
"What was that honey?" asked James, beaming at his brand new daughter.
"Jennifer. Let's name her Jennifer," said Lily looking equally proud of her baby.
July 31st, 1980
"This is your fault!" screamed Lily, while in the midst of labor.
"Honey, what are you talking about?" asked James.
"You did this to me again! This is your fault! Why do you keep doing this to me!" screamed Lily.
"Breathe," interrupted a Healer, "Breathe Mrs. Potter."
"Who the bloody hell are you?" yelled Lily.
"Your maternity Healer, Mrs. Potter. Now I need you to push," came the reply.
At exactly 10:15 p.m. the first of the two arrived. This time, Lily had twins.
"James, jr. That's what we'll name him," said an ecstatic James.
At exactly 10:17 the second arrived.
"Harry. His name will be Harry," muttered Lily as she passed out.
July 15h, 1981
"We know the drill," jokingly said James.
"Honey, why didn't we know about these pain potions before?" asked Lily, rhetorically.
"I wish we'd known," laughed James.
"So do we," said the Healer, darkly.
"May we present to you a beautiful baby boy," said the Healer's assistant.
"Hayden, he shall be Hayden Potter!" exclaimed James, knowing that it was his turn to pick the name.
October 31st, 1981
"Run Lily," yelled James. "I'll hold him off, save the children."
Lily dashed up the stairs and straight to Jenny's room. She picked up her precious daughter, took her from her room and made her way to the twin's room. She placed Jenny in the play pen with Harry, Hayden and James, Jr. A loud crash came from the stair well. The worst went through Lily's mind. She couldn't move, her heart completely torn. And then came her worst nightmare. He entered the room, red eyes gleaming with maniacal delight.
"Who shall go first, mudblood?" evilly sneered Tom Riddle.
"I won't choose," said Lily, "I would rather die than give up any of my children."
"Well, maybe Jr. should be the first to go," laughed the insane man. "AVADA KEDAVRA!"
And then, everything changed. The sickly green light smashed into James, Jr.'s forehead, pulsed and then rebounded back into Tom Riddle.
Lily stared in awe, while Jenny, Hayden and Harry cried terribly next to their brother, who had passed out.
"Mummy. Mummy. Wha happen ta jun-or mummy?" cried Jenny, the only one able to form sentences.
Lily ran over to James, Jr. she grabbed him up into her chest, and felt him breathe. There was no greater feeling than the sensation of his breathe against her chest. Her child was alive.
May 14th, 1982
"Mummy! Mummy! Guess what day it is?" yelled a jubilannt Jenny Potter. Today was her 3rd birthday. The whole world was going to hear about it.
"Shhhh, sweety, you'll wake James, Jr. What are you going on about anyway?" said Lily.
"Yes, honey. You need to be quieter, you are being awful loud," added James, Sr.
"Guess what day it is daddy," said Jenny, much more quietly.
"I don't know sweetheart, what day is it?" came James, Sr.'s reply.
"Stop kidding daddy, you know what day it is. Right mummy, daddy wouldn't forget would he?" said a still joyful little Jenny.
"Huh? What are you talking about, honey?" said Lily.
"Stop joking mummy," said Jenny, quickly becoming distraught.
"Honey, no one is joking. Now run along, we're watching over Junior right now," said James, Sr. Lily and James were huddled around the play pen, where Harry, Ryan and Junior were currently. Harry was playing with the 10 month old Ryan, while Junior napped.
"You're serious?" asked Jenny.
"What are you going on about? Bloody hell child, we've told you we don't know what you're talking about," impatiently hissed Lily.
"Jen-Jen birf-day! Jen-Jen birf-day!" squealed little Harry, excited to remember Jenny's big day.
"Oh my goodness," was all Lily could say before Jenny ran out of the room bawling.
"I'll get her," said James.
"How could we forget?" gasped Lily. Just then, Junior woke up, screaming from a nightmare. In all of three point two six seconds, Lily forgot all about Jenny again.
July 15th, 1982
"Mummy," said little Harry.
"Yes, sweety," said Lily, holding Junior in her lap, while James made faces to make him laugh.
"I tink taday is Hayden birf-day," said little Harry.
"Shut up Hawwy, mummy and daddy playin wit me now," said Junior, upset cause his parent's weren't paying as much attention to him at the moment.
"Oh that's right," said James. "Well, he won't remember his first birthday, so we'll make it up to him next year, right Lils."
"Yes, we really do need to be more careful of that," said Lily.
"You two only care about Jun-or anyway," sneered Jenny. "You always fo-get about me, Hawwy and Hayden."
"Jenny, how dare you? We said we were sorry, you just need to get over it young lady," hissed an extremely irritated, albeit guilty, Lily.
"Go to your room, young lady," said James.
July 31st, 1982
Hundreds of people were walking around the Potter Manor. All in line to see the boy who lived: little James Potter, Jr. Many notables were in attendance, as well as the press. There were beautiful decorations up, a gigantic stack of presents and a huge cake. A banner hung that said "Happy Birthday Junior!" and the icing spelled out his full name. It was the best second birthday anyone two year old could dream up. And one little three year old girl, one little two year old boy and one little one year old boy all looked at it with disgust from the corner.
Then Sirius Black and Remus Lupin arrived. "Padfoot! Moony!" yelled James.
"What's going on Prongs? How have you been?" said Sirius.
"Yea, it has been forever," added Remus.
"Oh, you know, family and stuff. It's not as easy as one might think to raise the Boy-Who-Lived!" replied James, with a smile.
"James, why do all of the banners only have Juniors name on them?" noticed Sirius.
"Yea, the cake only has Junior's name on it, too," said Remus, "Is there gonna be a smaller family party later to celebrate Harry's birthday as well? I understand with all the press and all, I guess."
"Oh bloody hell, I can't believe we did it again," muttered James.
"Did what?" said Sirius and Remus at the same time.
"Well, we kinda… we kinda forgot Hayden and Jenny's birthdays… and I guess… well, we…" stuttered James," forgot Harry's, as well."
"WHAT!" exclaimed Sirius.
"How the bloody hell have you forgotten three of your children's birthdays James!" hissed Remus.
"Hey, we gotta a lot of pressure on us right now," replied James, hotly.
"You 'idn't forget Jun-or's tho, daddy," said a very upset Harry.
"Oh Harry, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen," said James.
"We know daddy. You just don't love us as much," said Jenny, clearly hurt for Harry.
Harry ran off, as much as a two year old can, crying with Jenny hot on his heels. James couldn't say anything, then one year old Hayden, with an angry look on his face said "Da hawwy cwy."
James couldn't believe his son's first words were that he'd made his other son cry. Sirius picked up Hayden, and he and Remus went after the other two children. All the while, Junior was yelling "More presents! More presents!"
August 29th, 1983
"Well, you two are probably our best repeat customers," laughed a Healer.
"I guess we are. Can we take Jason and Jordan home now?" said Lily, looking at her brand new baby boy and baby girl.
"Yes, we have to get back to Junior," said James.
"You mean Junior, Jenny, Hayden and Harry, right Prongs," said an annoyed Remus.
"Of course, you didn't think I'd forget them, did you?" laughed James, nervously. Lily could do nothing but nodded tensely.
"Well, you two did remember Hayden and Jenny's birthday, THIS YEAR," started Remus.
"But you still forgot Harry, again," finished Sirius.
"Please, don't start this you two. We already feel guilty enough," pleaded James.
"Really, you've forgotten your children on their birthdays four times now. I don't think you can possibly feel guilty enough," stated Sirius.
"We'll do better. We promise. Now can we discuss this later, babies on board," said Lily, hoping to end the situation.
July 31st, 1986
"Mummy, it's my birthday. Why do we have to be here?" complained little James Potter, Jr.
"Hush up brat, Rose is being born," snapped seven year old Jenny.
"Yea dummy, don't you already get enough attention," laughed Harry.
"Dum-dum," said Jason.
"Dum-bum-dum," laughed Jordan.
"Kid's play nice. Junior, you and Harry already got your presents, but little Rose has to come today," explained James.
"Why? I already have to share today with that idiot," said Junior, pointing at Harry.
"Thanks," said Harry sadly, "Isn't it enough that everyone else pays attention to you all the time? You know, you don't have to be mean about it."
"Yes, Junior be nice," said Lily, "Um, James can you take the kids to Sirius and Remus? I'm going into labor."
James took the kids out to their Uncles.
"Uncle Padfoot!" yelled Hayden, Harry and Jenny at the same time, running to the smiling grizzly man.
"Moomy, Moomy!" screeched Jason and Jordan.
"It's Moony you stupid heads," said Junior, arrogantly.
"Junior, stop being mean to your brothers and sisters," said James as he walked back to be with Lily.
"Hey cubs and pups, how are you all doing?" said the Uncle simultaneously.
"Excited for a new little sister?" asked Remus.
"More importantly, excited to learn new tricks?" asked Sirius.
Junior then decided push through his siblings, making little Jordan fall over. "It's my birthday and you should be paying attention to me!" he said proudly. "That's what mum and dad do. Oh hush up, you little kneazle," directed at Jordan had begun crying because he shoved her.
"Junior, you will apologize to your little sister and then you will be in time-out for five minutes," said Remus.
"What? No, it's my birthday and you can't make me," responded an irate Junior.
"Fine, fifteen minutes. And you're still apologizing to your sister," said Sirius. "And it's not just your birthday, it's Harry's and Rose's, too."
"Whatever, as if they matter. I'm the boy who lived. And I say no time out," said Junior, with all of his siblings looking at him loathingly.
"Thirty minutes and you can't have your toy snitch that I was going to give until Tuesday. You will be nice to your siblings and you will respect us, we are your godfathers," said Remus, angrily. "And you now have a thirty minute time out to think about it."
Just then, James came out holding his brand new baby girl. "Isn't she beautiful?"
Before anyone could say anything, Junior was on the floor throwing a tantrum. "Uncle Remus and Sirius are being mean to me and they wont pay attention to me instead of everyone else and you and mummy are paying attention to HER and I'm the one who deserves attention and they want to put me in time out and Remus won't give me my present and" screamed Junior.
Little Rose started crying to, having all the noise scare her. "Shhhh, Junior, you're scaring your little sister!" said James.
Then Junior did the unforgivable. He came over and tried to pull Rose out of his dad's arms. "YOU SHOULDN'T CARE ABOUT HER. YOU SHOULD CARE ABOUT ME. ME. ME. ME. I'M THE SPECIAL ONE!" he yelled.
August 1st, 1986
"Lily, we've got to do something about Junior's behavior. He's going to hurt one of the other kids," said James, in the master bedroom.
"Oh, don't be silly James, you must be exaggerating," responded Lily.
"You didn't see him last night Lils, he tried to pull Rose out of my arms," insisted James.
"Well, I guess we could be a little less lenient with him. But he's still always gonna need the most attention once Rose is a little older. He is the one in the spotlight," sighed Lily.
"I know, I know," said James.
