Teddy Lupin had very different reactions to the birth of the Potter children

Teddy was 6 when James was born. Harry was too busy to see the insecurity Teddy felt at the arrival of the new baby. Upon seeing James in Harry's arms for the first time , Teddy looked terrified and ran away crying. Harry found him hiding in the attic of the Potter's resident, he softly asked him, "Hey buddy what's wrong?"

"I don't like him. He's new, do you love him more then me?" asked Teddy with tears in his eyes.

Harry realized what was going on, "No Teddy, I love you both equally."

"But he looks like you and aunt Ginny." Argued Teddy.

"Yes but that doesn't change anything. Look at it this way , we love you very much and now there's James , we're going to love him as much as we love you. No more, no less." Stated Harry.

"You promise?" asked Teddy hopefully.

"Yes, I promise. Look on the bright side, you finally have a little brother. You will be his hero and he will follow you everywhere. You'll love him." Even Harry was excited by this thought.

"Like Dominique follows Victorie?"

"Yes, exactly like that. Now come on . Let's go say hi to James Potter." Said Harry taking Teddy's hand.

When Teddy finally saw James Sirius , he took his small hands and said, "Jamie. Can we call hi Jamie?"

"Off course love." Replied Ginny smiling.

Then as James curled his small hand around Teddy's index finger, Ted smiled and said , "You were right uncle Harry."

"About what buddy?"

Teddy smiled at the baby and said , " I love him already."

When Albus was born it was James who ran away being insecure. As Harry was about to enter his son's room to console him like he did with Teddy two years ago, he was surprised to hear voices inside the room.

"It's okay, Jamie." Said Teddy in a soothing voice. "There's nothing to be scared of, your mum and dad will love you and the new baby equally."

"But- what if they don't ?" said James through tears.

"They will ," Teddy said confidently , "This is exactly how I felt when you were born and now look at us . Also you finally have a little brother." Then he leaned closer to James and whispered , " We'll have so much fun , we'll steal the cookie from the kitchen and blame it on him."

Finally ,James laughed. So Teddy asked , " So wanna go and say hi?"

"Only if you come too."

"Always."

No one was jealous when Lily was born. She stole all of their hearts at first sight. All three boys stared at her in wonder above her baby-cot.

"She's so tiny." Said Teddy

"She looks like you, mum." Said Albus with wide green eyes

James, on the other hand, wanted to play with the baby. "Why isn't she waking up? Dad I wanna play with her."

Albus hit his big brother and told him to stay quiet. But the banter woke up the baby. She stared at her three brothers with Ginny's brown eyes. She was about to cry when Teddy took her small hands, and she held his fingers the same way James had all those eyes ago.

"Hello Princess." Cooed Teddy.
