This isn't how it was supposed to go. Everything is wrong, seventh year was perfect, so how can this all be so off? Lily and I were dating; Sirius, Remus, Peter and I couldn't be better friends. School was easy and fun, I was accepted early to the Auror program; everything was perfect! When Lily told me I was going to be a father, it was even better, we were a family, Sirius was a godfather, Remus and Peter where uncles, it couldn't get better! My world was complete! But then Voldemort threatened my family and we went into hiding, my little son couldn't be a normal child; he couldn't even leave his house. My beautiful wife couldn't go out with her friends, we couldn't have 'dates', everything started getting hard. But we pushed through, our relationship grew stronger, it was good again. Until that night. It started out normal; we ate dinner, and when Harry started to get fussy, I made some bubbles for him to play with. When I felt the wards go, I signaled to Lily; we kept going like normal until Voldemort actually broke it. Then Lily took Harry upstairs where an emergency port key was while I slowed Voldemort down. It was a perfect plan, except the port key didn't work! The command word wasn't activation it! It was hard to watch my wife's murder from above and not be able to do anything. The only good thing is that our son can live on.
