"Hurry Lily we must aparate to Hogsmead!" James yelled out at the site of the dark lord in his window.
"Yes James we must! Take Harry for me!"
She handed him the one year old Harry and grabbed her wand.
"Let's go!" She cried taking hold of James' hand.
They showed up in a bar in Hogsmead called Hog Head.
"Were do we go?" Lily said on the verge of tears.
"We should go to Hogwarts; to Dumbledore he'll help us!"
"Yes. Yes he will,"
The couple ran down the streets off Hogsmead with the screaming infant.
"What's wrong with him?" James said throwing a hand around Lily's shoulders.
"We left his blanket,"
"Oh dear,"
"Don't worry we'll get Dumbledore to send someone to get our stuff."
They came the Hogwarts gate. Now it was the middle of the night on Halloween so there were no students out doors. Walking in through the gates and in he front door into the entrance hall they got Harry to go to sleep with a spell.
"I feel terrible for putting a spell on him,"
"He'll be fine,"
"I know,"
"Do you think they got away?" They heard a familiar voice say from around the corner.
"Yes Minerva, I have a strong feeling we shall be seeing them soon,"
"Oh I do hope so Albus, I truly do,"
"Come on Lily," James whispered taking her hand.
"Professor?" Lily said as childish as she could.
"Do I hear a student out of bed?" Minerva McGonagall called out.
"Not quite," James said as they came around they corner.
"OH! James, Lily, and little Harry! You are alright! Thank goodness!" She threw her arms around the couple and their sleeping child.
"We managed to escape before he broke in," James said briefly.
"Oh excellent!" Dumbledore threw his hands in the air.
"We were wondering if we could stay here awhile?" Lily said Handing Harry off the James.
"Oh yes of course!" Dumbledore replied.
"Can you send someone to get Harry's stuff, me and James are ok."
"Yes I will right away,"
"Thank you so much headmaster!"
Lily hugged Dumbledore before taking Harry back in her arms.
"You may stay here as long as you need," He said.
------------------------------------
Sadly it did not last long. Lily and James stayed at Hogwarts for a year before going back to Godric Hallows; they lived there for three years before he came back, at the same time on Halloween. Lily and James Potter died that night, but Harry even though hit by the killing curse lived on, he truly is the boy who lived!
Authors note-Harry is 5 just so everyone knows!
