Word count: 316


"Come on Harry, I know you can do it! Say Papa!"

Lily sat on the couch and asked herself again why she married this idiot. Why she even dated him in the first place. He really had a bet with Sirius what word her son would say first. Papa or Padfoot? This was ridiculous.

"Forget it, Prongs! I just know that he will say Padfoot!"

Sirius was sure and ruffled through his godsons already messy hair. He was not that old but he knew that this messy hair was just like James'. Remus sat next to Lily and read a book. He was used to their childish games and did not say anything about it anymore. It was too tiring.

"P-..pa.."

Harry watched them and tried to say whatever he was trying to say. Both men were watching him and he grabbed at the round things in front of him, trying to reach it.

"Come on, just a little more! I know that you can do it, Harry!"

James was sure he would win! After all, this was his son! He chuckled and touched his small and grubby hand.

"Say Papa..."

Remus really did not know what he should do with them. He looked over his book and watched the scene in front of him.

"Honestly, Lily. How can you be married with him?"

But the only woman just sighed and shrugged.

"I ask myself the same question every day..."

Of course, they did not mean it like that. She loved him but sometimes she wondered why.

"Pafoo...!"

Sirius smirked and crossed his arms. He was proud of his godson!

"Ha! This was definitely not Papa! This was Padfoot!"

James was jealous. He was the father and not this stupid dog! But he accepted it and just grumbled before he went in the kitchen. He lost so he had to do the dishes...
