A/N: Hey, This story is actualy mine! *gasp* Shocking right? :) Anyways I'm always the one that gets inspired in the car, listening to the music. So that's why mine seem to always be song fics! Ok, so hope you all like it! Btw: I dont own the Lyrics, or Sirius and Lily, just Alyssa! :) Enjoy!
I'm lost in her there holdin' that pink rod and reel
She's doin' almost everything but sittin' still
Talkin' 'bout her ballet shoes and training wheels
And her kittens
And she thinks we're just fishin'
She's amazing. Her form, the way she holds her broom. Why she wanted orange streamers off the back I'll never understand, but it's hers. Her own broom. And she's amazing on it.
Alyssa and Sirius were flying around the pitch at Hogwarts. They were just lazily flying around warming up to practice with the snitch. At seven, Alyssa had a slim athletic build, she was fast, she had her own broom, and she was ready to go. It was Quidditch after all.
"I love it, Daddy! It's orange, and even says my name on the back! But on the front it says Chudely Canons! I'm gunna have a real jersey one day! And Lily was teaching Lexi and me how to ride bikes. Those are things muggle kids ride. I don't have good enough balance for it yet, so I have little wheels on either side of the big wheel. Lexi doesn't, but she has better balance then me." Alyssa giggled- it was common knowledge that she wasn't the most coordinated of children unless on a broom. "Midnight ran away last night, so we need to be more careful daddy," she said seriously.
"Baby, Midnights a stuffed cat," Sirius said amused.
"Yeah, but she ended up in the living room this morning."
"That's because you dropped her when you fell asleep during the movie last night," he reminded her. She doesn't even know how cute it was, her little eyelashes soft against her cheeks. I carried her up to her up to her room, and she was wrapped around my neck the whole way upstairs.
I say, "Daddy loves you, baby" one more time
She says, "I know. I think I got a bite."
And all this laughin', cryin, smilin' dyin' here inside's
What I call, livin'
Sirius releases the snitch, and Alyssa takes off after it.
"I love you, baby!" he calls after her, content to just hover above the ground and watch her skill on a broom.
"I know, I got the snitch," she said flying back over. That was less than 2 minutes, set for a 10 year old. Amazing! he thinks, laughing.
"That's great! Let's take it up a level!" Her smile kills me. I wish I could guarantee it would always be there. This is life, all those people who work non-stop, or have a different girl each night aren't living. I'm living, with my perfect daughter.
And she thinks we're just fishin' on the riverside
Throwin' back what we can't fry
Drownin' worms and killin' time
Nothin' too ambitious
She ain't even thinkin' 'bout
What's really goin' on right now
But I guarantee this memory's a big'un
And she thinks we're just fishin'
She doesn't get it, Sirius thought as he followed after her, each of them trying to get the snitch first. She thinks this is just Quidditch, she doesn't know how important this is. This isn't just Quidditch, just flying, just a leisurely way to spend a Saturday. This will be a memory we'll have forever.
She's already pretty, like her mama is
Gonna drive the boys all crazy
Give her daddy fits
And I better do this every chance I get
'Cause time is tickin'
(Yeah it is)
She looks just like her mum. Alyssa, you don't even know. I wish I'd had more moments like this with Aurora. You look so similar, both so pretty. I'm going to have to beat the boys off with a bat! Sirius thought frantically, that moment of horror was all it took for Alyssa to dive ahead and capture the small winged ball. She cheered happily and smiled at him, the beaming innocent smile that melted his heart.
I just want to see that smile. As often as possible. We should do this whenever we can, anything to keep that smile on her face. There won't be much time and she'll be coming to school, joining the Quidditch team, then sooner than I'm ready for she'll be a professional player. She'll be all grown up, with a family of her own.
And she thinks we're just fishin' on the riverside
Throwin' back what we can't fry
Drownin' worms and killin' time
Nothin' too ambitious
She ain't even thinkin' 'bout
What's really goin' on right now
But I guarantee this memory's a big'un
And she thinks we're just fishin'
She ain't even thinkin' 'bout
What's really goin' on right now
But I guarantee this memory's a big'un
And she thinks we're just fishin'
Yeah, aww, she thinks we're just fishin'
We ain't only fishin'
(This ain't about fishin')
It's not what it seems, he thought a while later, as they walked back to the castle brooms in hand. These are the moments that count. These little ones are things that are truly special. Every award, accomplishment, every Galleon spent on a new broom is nothing to my baby girl. My only girl. Alyssa.
