Today, October 31st, 1981, makes one week we've been stuck here at Godric's Hollow, for our security, for Lily and me, and above all for the safety of our son, Harry. My little boy, who is just fifteen months old.
A little boy with a prophecy on his shoulders. Why does fate choose my little sweetie for the future of the wizarding world? I watched him all the week and he's just a normal little boy. He plays with his toys, which were offered to him by Moony and Padfoot for his birthday, he makes innocent jokes. Lily says it's because of me and I respond that without her intelligence he couldn't make these jokes. She blushes and says nothing after that. When I watch in his emerald eyes, so like Lily's, I see nothing but innocence and mischief. My little boy is totally normal, so why does he have to kill this monster? When will he lose his innocence? Lily, I, and all of our friends lost it too soon and we're twenty years old!
We both know that Neville Longbottom, the son of two of our friends, can be the Chosen One, and sometimes, when I watch my son sleeping and compare him to an angel, I hope that Neville is the Chosen One. I forget this idea fast. I'm ashamed, nobody can wish this destiny for a child, but my paternal instinct screams at me to do everything to protect my son, the proof of my love for Lily, the fruit of our love
To protect us, Dumbledore performed the Fidelius Charm. He informed us of the necessity of a Secret Keeper. I immediately though of Sirius, my best friend, a man I consider my brother. My son's godfather.
Sirius proposed Peter as Secret-Keeper at the last minute. I accepted in spite of Lily's protests. She says Peter can't be trusted, that she has a horrible feeling about it. We know there is a traitor near us, but Sirius and I think it's Remus.
Lily comes back. She's gotten Harry to sleep. I didn't dare tell her that since this morning I've have the same feeling of dread, that I'm terrified she's right. The look in her eyes tells me that my worries aren't needed: She knows. We took advantage of every moment with our son today. She's in my arms, and I take advantage of this moment, feeling her next to me.
I hear the door explode. It's Him, I know it.
-"Lily, go, take Harry and run! I'll hold him off!"
My wife obeys, and I can tell she knows it's the last time we see each other. My eyes meet hers one last time. "I love you," she murmurs. I can't speak; just answer her with my eyes. Without knowing it, she gave me the strength to fight him, and, I hope, enough time to let her escape with our son.
I watch her disappear in the top of stairs.
I look Voldemort in the eyes. My fear isn't for me, just for my wife and Harry.
-"Stupefy!"
Of course, he avoids the spell. He sends the same spell back at me, but I dodge it. I block him to reach to the stairs and it makes him angry, I know it.
-"Avada Kedavra!"
I know I can't kill him, but I have to do everything I can to stop him. Now he wants to kill me. He throws mortal spell that shines the colour of the eyes of the two people I love most. I don't try to avoid it; I know that this is my last hour. I look at the face of evil, and wait, my thoughts on Lily and Harry. In my last breath, I whisper, "I love you."
And the shadows gulp me down.
