Resting against a warm chest, Harry felt safe and loved for the first time in his life.
A soft melody could be heard in the dimness of what looked like an infants room.
Baby mine, don't you cry.
Baby mine, dry your eyes.
Rest your head close to my heart,
Never to part,
Baby of mine.
He felt tears run down his cheeks as the warm body rocked him and a calmness
settle over his pain-filled mind.
Little one when you play,
Don't you mind what they say.
Let those eyes sparkle and shine,
Never a tear,
Baby of mine.
The vibrations in the body soothed the after effects of the cruciatus and the once
jabbing pains dissapeared as if they were never there.
If they knew sweet little you
They'd end up loving you too.
All those same people who scold you
What they'd give just for the right to hold you.
The person holding him shifted him softly and gently so he could look up into a
smiling face brightned by green eyes and soft strawberry hair.
From your head down to your toes,
You're not much, goodness knows.
But you're so precious to me,
Sweet as can be,
Baby of mine.
Who he realized was now his mum, ran her fingers through his locks, down the side
of his cheek, to wipe away the last of the tears, down his chest and across to his
back to rub it softly.
All of those same people who scold you,
what they'd give just for the right to hold you.
Walking slowly Lily took him over to his crib, continuing the sweet lullabye
and rocking.
From your head down to your toes
You're not much, goodness knows.
But you're so precious to me,
Sweet as can be,
Baby of mine.
Baby of mine.
Kissing his unmarred brow and whispering a soft ' I love you, Harry, be safe '
she placed him in his crib before tucking his blanket around him and walking out of
the room.
As little Harry drifted off to sleep the soft melody coninued to play warding off
Voldemorts attempted attacks through the link they share.
