Ok guys so this is going to be my first fanfic ever. I've never personally read the Harry Potter series, so feel free to correct me if I'm getting something horrible wrong, but also remember that I'm going to be changing a lot too! If you have any comments please let me know, advice and suggestions are always appreciated. Also, I have only two rules, if it isn't helpful, I don't care! And if you don't like it, don't read it! Anyways, on with the story!
And so, we go!
Harry Potter and the Five Who Lived!
"Ok, yep that's right. Just relax, your almost done." The midwife said as she coxed the women through the last part of the birth. "Just relax Lily, do what the scary woman says, and I'll get to see my kid soon!" as he finished saying that the women promptly squeezed his hand. Hard. "Sorry! Sorry, I meant our kid, obviously, what else could I mean, you have been caring the precious cargo. I've just had to deal with you" this time the midwife hit him. "If you're just going to keep making her angry then leave! Before I have to make you!" "But I want t-" was as far as he got before the woman grabbed her wand and banished him out the door. "There!" She said, "now we can finish this up". She then walked back over to the other woman and began helping her again.
Meanwhile in the waiting area in the hospital, "Why do you think its taking so long Remus?" "Sirius, we've only been here five minutes!" Sirius sighed. "Really? It feels like its been taking forever!" Just then a surprised figure came flying, literally, out of the double doors and hit the wall behind them. "James! What are you doing out here shouldn't you be in there with Lily for this?!" yelled Remus. "I'm fine Moony" The now revealed James said. "That crazy woman in there kicked me out". "And what did you do to cause that Prongs?" asked Moony. "I don't know!" he yelled. "One minute I was holding Lilly's hand and the next I was being thrown out!" James said in distress. "Ok Prongs take a deep breath. Let it out. Better?" asked Moony. "Yeah, thanks" said James.
It was a few minutes after James' mental breakdown that the midwife came out. She looked directly at James. "I have good, news and bad news" she said. At this, all three heads snapped up to look at her. "What!" James yelled. "What happened, where's Lilly!" James started yelling, looking like he was going to have a breakdown. "James! JAMES!" James looked over at the man that yelled his name. "Ok, now that I have your attention" he turned toward the midwife, who was starting to get annoyed with the mans constant yelling. "Now what's the good news ma'am?" Moony asked. She smiled "at least one of you can keep a cool head" she said, then glared at James. "As I was saying, There's good news and there's bad news." All three nodded their heads at this agreeing that she had in fact said that. "The good news is that everything went just fine." The three males all let out a sight of relief at this. "So, what's the bad news?" Sirius asked. The woman glared at him now. "As I was saying" she said with a hint of frustration evident in her voice. "The bad news is that there was a slight miscalculation." James final got over his fear of the small lady and asked, "what kind of miscalculation?". She grinned at him and said, "Why don't you go find out for yourself?" and with that she turned and walked away.
James looked at Sirius, then at Remus. He got a devilish smirk on his face then said, "Ok guys, you know the rules." At this Remus sigh and Sirius looked confused "what rules?" he asked. James' grin got even larger as he jumped up from his seat and yelled "Last one in has to change the diaper!" before charging ahead. Remus looked over at Sirius and chuckled. "What are you laughing at Moony?" Remus just pointed at the doors James had just ran through and began counting down from four on his fingers. When he ran out of fingers both started to chuckle. The chuckling soon turned into a full-on fit of hysteria. The reason they were laughing so hard? They had just witnessed their best mate go flying back of the doors he had run through. By the time the two friends were done laughing, James had finally regained enough consciousness to start walking towards them. He was mumbling something about over protective mothers and not running toward newborns. When he finally made it back to them, Sirius started laughing again. Remus just looked at him and shook his head "and what did you do to deserve being sent flying away?" Remus asked a bit mockingly, but mostly just curios. James blushed a little and rubbed the back of his head. "Well, umm you see, I may of just ran at a new mom full speed, and she obviously didn't trust my ability to stop… so she made me" Sirius, who had just managed to control his laughing had to begin the struggle to control himself anew at this. "I don't know about you mate but that looked like a bit more than just stopping to me!" He said still laughing at his friend's flight. "Oh, shut up would you, dam mutt". Remus sighed. "You can't blame her for not trusting you to stop mate. I mean look where that got her last time!" and with that Remus joined Sirius in the fight against laughing. James just looked at them both and frowned, then he started to laugh too.
It was a few minutes latter before the three of them had managed to stop laughing. James cleared his throat, getting the other twos attention. At this both looked at him and saw that he looked better. "Ok mates, lets go see my kid!" James said with an air of authority. They all turned toward the doors and straightened their clothes, first impressions make all the difference after all, no matter what age the kid is at. James turned his head left and looked at Remus, then he turned right and looked at Sirius. And that was all the sign they needed to start walking.
When they finally went in to see Lily she was laying in the bed holding a large bundle of cloth, making funny faces and cooing at it. The three men smiled at this and headed over to her. When they got to her she looked up at them and smiled. "I'm glad you guys could make it. Moony. Padfoot." She said looking at Remus and Sirius respectively. She then turned to James and gave him a large smile. "James" she said, "I'd like you to meet your new children." At this James gave her a look. "you mean child, right?" She looked back up at him and shook her head. "No James, I meant children." At this his heart skipped a beat. Then his smile turned into a grin and he leaned down and kissed his wife. To his side Sirius cat whistled and Remus rolled his eyes. Lily suddenly looked up and glared at Sirius. "I swear if they wake up because of that I will castrate you!" she whispered at him. No sooner than she had said that did they all hear the sound of crying. She glared pointedly at Sirius. "And to think" she started, "we were going to name you the god-father" she huffed and turned away to try and stop the crying.
It was almost twenty minutes later that the crying had finally stopped. In this time Lily told James, Remus, and Sirius to stay quiet. "Ok so ho-" was all James got to say before Lily glared at him and shushed him. After that was done closed her eyes for a second. When she opened them, they looked ten years older. Remus was the first to try talking this time. In a barely audible voice he asked his question. "So how many little James' to I have to worry about running around?" Lily just smirked at him and help up her hand signaling three. Remus' eyes got large as he muttered something about how the world could barely survive one, let alone three. "Wow" James said, "Three kids" he continued as he ran his hand through his hair. When he said this Lily started to giggle a bit before shaking her head and holding up all five fingers this time. This time it was Sirius' to go wide eyed. "Five kids!" he muttered. He looked at James and shook his head. "You've got your work cut out for you now mate" he said, "just remember that ill be there for you and Lily if you need me." "As will I" Remus chimed in. Lily looked up at James, then to the pair of friends and smiled widely. Her smile suddenly became a devilish grin as she said "Thanks guys. Ill be sure to hold you both to that too." Both of them looked at each other and gulped. "Any thing to help you and James, Lily." He thought for a moment then added, "within reason AND my power that is" when it looked like Lily was going to say something. Sirius nodded, "that goes for me to Lil."
After an hour or so the midwife came back and cleared Lily and the kids to leave. And so James and Lily said there good byes to Sirius and Remus and headed back home to potter manor.
4 months, 25 days later
Christmas had been an especially exciting day this year. Why you might ask? The answer was rather simple if you looked at the Potter house.
Lily had never seen a sight quite like this before. In front of her, gathered in the living room of the potter manor was the cutest sight she may have ever seen. On the floor, laying on a soft plush blanket where fire infants all sleeping holding on to each other. When she thought about it, it had been a rather eventful day for them. They were used to crawling around the manor, always kept on the ground floor by the various house elves, and exploring. Today they had gone to see their grandparents, who had of yet to see their adorable little grandchildren. They opened the presents they got over there, well they didn't open them but, hey come on, their only four months old. When they had all got back from that adventure, they got to play with there presents. The boys, Harry, Orion and Aurther it was decided they would be named, got a hold of the toy brooms they got from their grandparents and were flying around the house trying to catch a toy snitch. The girls, Alicia and Rose, meanwhile had taken a liking to the small books they had received, though they didn't really know what they were, they just tasted good, kind of like a sweet.
Ten months, five days later.
Lily had just finished putting the kids to bed. They had been outside flying around on their favorite toy brooms and reading today. She closed the door to their room, since they were still little they shared a room, and walked into the master bedroom. When she got there, she headed for the ensuite bathroom to get ready for bed. After taking a quick shower and putting on her sleeping clothes, she headed to bed. As she got in bed and laid down, she felt a pair of arms wrap around her. "Don't worry about the kids, they'll be fine" said James in a quiet, soothing voice. Lily turned around to face him, still wrapped in his arms and gave him a quick kiss. "How am I supposed to just not worry?" she asked. "I mean, I know we moved here and went under the fidelius charm and all, but I can't help but feel it's not enough!" "I know how you feel Lily." James said. "So, I contacted the goblins today, and told them that should anything happen to us, our vaults are to be locked down with no one allowed to enter them at all until Harry turns 11, and then only he and his siblings. After being checked for and coercing.", He took a breath, "I also modified our will a bit." Lily just sighed, "And what, pray tell, did you change?" she asked. He grinned at her, "I made it so that in the event of our deaths, the kids will be separated between the five families that are their respective god-parents, and that they must see each other at least fifty-six times a year" he said as he finally exhaled. "Lets just hope that these measures wont ever need to be taken" Said Lily before she drifted off to sleep.
Little did the couple know that that was the last time they would get to be together, in the same house with their kids, for this lifetime.
