A Mother's Pain
By Judith A. Moskalyk
This is a one-shot fic, set during that horrid night at Godric's Hollow. It's Lily's thoughts, as she tries to protect Harry. Be nice. This is my first time doing this.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Harry Potter Character's, and beg only to JK Rowling that she doesn't sue for borrowing her characters.
I would never see you grow up. I would never see you develope into the strong young man you were to become. That you were destined to be. The thought alone was scary to me. You were my life, young one, You were my soul.. my heart. I loved you, my child, but you would never know that. The years you spent mocked, teased, bullied... And I would never be there for you to tell you that it would be alright. I feel as though I let you down. When I first held you in my arms.. I was joyous; I wept with such happiness. And now.. I would never see you grow up.
You had a very loving family.. myself and your father. We loved you dearly. You were ours. No one elses. You had two uncles that were very fond of you. One would lead you to mischeif.. the other would guide you along, helping you grow.. But you did not know this. No. You were far too young.
My son. I gave you life, and now I fear that it would only be taken away from me. Too soon would that be. You're a fine young child. Perfect in everyway. You never fussed when I changed you, nor when I bathed you. You slept all through the night, and you always brought a smile to your father and my heart.
He would be proud of you, Harry. You never fussed when I picked you up. Trying to defend you from the Dark Lord. No. You were a good child. And never forget.. I will always love you. I will always be watching over you...... but yet you will never know. Be patient, my son. There will be a day that we will be together again.
This is a mother's pain.. to know that she will not be there to watch you grow.
