AN: This is going to be simple 500-1000 words-ish chapters. I find it much easier to do things one day at a time. This is going to be based around the AU for my story, "The Secret". If you haven't read it here's the general consensus: Harry finds out Petunia and Dudley are magical in the 3rd year (Azkaban). Petunia leaves Vernon to teach at Hogwarts and to protect Harry and Dudley (Douglas) better.
This series will be short tidbits of the main series in hopes that they rekindle my writers flame and kick start the main story. Also, in my story Dudley is referred to as Douglas later on as I treat "Dudley" as a nickname and Douglas as his real name. These will be just small scenes that hopefully snowball into full scenes and sequences in the main one.

Petunia felt flustered as Vernon finally left for work. She was so tired already, and now with two babies it was all the more intense. Vernon had spent the morning slamming dishes and yelling at the two boys as Petunia did her best to calm them. "Can we not simply drop them off at the orphanage or the local bishops office or something for Christ's sake?" "Well, honey, you know Harry is my blood-" "I give no damns! Send them both! I am tired of this unnecessary crying all the damn time!" at this Vernon roughly kicked Harry away from him. Petunia quickly rushed to the infants side, attempting to calm the pained screams.
"Oh, I see how this is? You taking sides with a... a freak?" Vernon screeched as he walked over to Petunia, who was on the floor cradling Harry to her chest. "Vernon he is a baby!" "He's a bloody freak!" Petunia screamed as her husband snatched her by the hair, pulling her to her feet. "Drop the damn baby and be through with him!" Without truly realizing what she did Petunia reached in her blouse and pulled out her wand. "Stupefy."
Instantly Vernon fell back and Petunia looked down to the crying baby in her arms. Tears began to form in the corners of her eyes as she looked upon the infant. She checked the small baby for injuries due to the kick, and was sad to see a bruise forming. Again lifting her wand she healed the baby and cooed to him softly. "Oh Harry, Harry, Harry. What have I gotten myself in with you?" Resting him on the couch and setting Dudley aside she once more used magic to prepare their bottles and send them off to a full belly sleep.
Breathing deeply Petunia walked up to Vernon who still lay on the floor. Running her hand down the side of his face she smiley weakly. "My dear husband, could you ever accept a freak like me?" Already knowing the answer in his terrified eyes she shook her head. "Don't worry, you won't remember a thing..."
Vernon woke with a start. His head felt fuzzy and unsure. "Pet.. Petunia!" He murmured as he looked around, trying to get his bearings. Quickly his wife arrived at his side, "Vernon! You have to go! Did you fall asleep eating bacon again? I'm telling you Vernon I really think you need to get your sugar checked..." She assisted him out of his chair and led him to the door with a kiss. "Have a good day!" Vernon walked to the car, slowly coming out of his faze, but only remembering the boys crying and then waking up. Shaking it off as merely a brush with possibly low blood sugar Vernon made his way to work.
Petunia, finally having a moment, broke down briefly. Tears flowed freely as she sunk to the floor on the side of the couch. This was all too much. Too much for her to take on her own. Hearing movement behind her she saw Harry reaching his hand towards her and babbling. "Oh Harry, I need a moment. Please.." "Mama." Leaning her head back and crying again, this time leaning on the baby's small hand, "I'm far from the woman she was, but I will try."
AN: No guarantee on updates, but definitely expect more because this was wonderful. Like I said, these will be scenes that I imagine happening. Now, I will try and make it in chronological order, so the next one will probably be in Harry's early childhood, with some chances of flashbacks into Petunia's days.
