It was a dark and stormy Halloween night in Godric's Hollow and Lilly was trying to calm her small toddler.

"Shh Harry hush baby it's okay" Lilly cooed bouncing her son on her hip. There was a loud crackle in the living room and her husband James had come out of the fire place from the Auror Office at the ministry.

James walked over to his small family and gave Harry a kiss on the top of his head and Lilly a strong passionate one on the lips. for the first time since the storm started Harry smiled through his tears.

"Long day?" Lilly asked after taking a breath.

"Yep, how bout you?" James motioned towards his son.

"Oh yes, Harry hasn't stopped crying ever since the storm started up" she glanced at the child in her arms and finally realized he was no longer upset. "Well….. he was upset before you got home!" Lilly joked.

"Well I guess I'm just that awesome right Prongslet?" he asked ruffling the boy's long jet black hair. Harry giggled and held out his arms. James merely laughed and took him from his mother's grasp and held him close, knowing even though he looked okay he still wasn't too happy about the storm.

"I'm going to start up dinner, anything you're in the mood for?" Lilly asked heading to the kitchen

"Anything's fine, oh and before I forget Padfoot and Moony are coming over for dinner." He called after his wife

"You mean like they do EVERY night?" Lilly chuckled "honestly why don't they just move in we have the room and it would be so much easier to see them"

"Hey that's not a bad idea! How about we tell them at dinner tonight?"

"Whoa whoa whoa wait a minute, I was joking, I love them both to death but one marauder and marauder Jr is more than enough living in one household " Lilly brandished a long wooden spoon

"Oh come on please! It would be so much fun to all be living together again and Harry already sees them as uncles" he begged

Lilly looked into the big puppy dog eyes of her husband and turned who her son who seemed to know what was going or he just knew now was the time he was supposed to help his father and gave her the puppy dog look as well. Well what the hell they're already family

She turned back to her husband sighed and smiled "go make up their rooms before they get the chance to say no"

James's face lit up and grabbed Lilly with his free arm (the other still holding Harry) and pulled her in for a big smooch on the lips. Before Lilly could push him off he turned and bounded up the stairs with 'Harry. Lilly huffed at his behavior and thought to herself which child would be harder to raise; Harry, or her husband

An hour and a half had passed and James had already finished both rooms for the most part they just needed to have their occupants fill them up. Harry sat on the floor of one of the rooms playing with a stuffed teddy bear "what do you think Prongslet do Uncle Padfoot and Uncle Moony's rooms look good?"

Harry turned his gaze from his father to the room and started giggling happily and James picked him up and swirled him around the room before bringing him down stairs.

Lilly had just finished dinner when she heard footsteps coming down the stairs as James turned the corner into the kitchen and placed his son in his high chair he took Lilly in a embrace. Lilly smiled and returned the kiss when they heard the fireplace roaring to life and footsteps rushing out of it.

"JAMES! LILLY!" Sirius's voice boomed through the house. The young couple broke apart and ran into the living room where Sirus was gasping for breath.

"He's coming….. Wormtail… he told….. Spy…. get out." Sirius, who was holding onto his knees for support now straightened his posture and hurried them through the fire place only stopping to retrieve Harry from the kitchen.

"We're going to Moony's he's got it set up already" Sirius rushed pushing them towards the fireplace.

They both nodded and Lilly took her child from his godfather and was the first to head into the fire place; James looked at his friend and gave him a brief brotherly hug before stepping into the fireplace as well Sirius took one last look at the house before scooping up some floo and throwing it into the fireplace himself.

Not a second later the front door busted open revealing a tall thin creature dressed in a black cloak covering his face. The only thing visible was a boney white hand with a thin white wand held out in front of him. Under the cloak a spine chilling smile twitched on the man's face

"Come out, come out wherever you are" the dark lord sung in a frightening tone wand at the ready and taking small graceful steps through the house. He lurked through the house looking for any occupants that lived there. The smile started to fade away with each empty room. Then disappeared entirely when he realized he searched the whole house.

"WORMTAIL!"

A short rat-faced man hardly taller than a teenager popped into the room in that instant and started to cower in his hands.

"Where are the Potters?"

"th-ey should- b-b-be he-r-re" the rat man shuddered under his master's presence.

"look around wormtail" the dark lord said harshly "do you see them anywhere?"

The rat man shivered

"you Failed me Wormtail"

"I'm sorry!"

"you better be; in the meantime you're very lucky, for I have another use for you"
