Same as normal I don't HP or the song.

This one-shot is short, but it cute and sweet.


It was a cold stormy night, in the middle of winter. The rain hammered on the windows, with winds that felt like it was going to blow the house away. Lightening was lighting up the dark rooms. The thunder, with its booming sound, woke up a baby, who screamed for it mother. It scared a child who ran to her parent's room to seek comfort from the storm and into her father arms who comforted her. The child's mother got up and went into the baby's room. The baby was screaming so loud now that she picked her baby boy up and gently rocked him in her arms. She hoped to soothe him back to sleep. Soon the mother started to sing a lullaby to help her son drift off.

My precious one, my tiny one, lay down your pretty head.
My dearest one my sleepy one, it's time to go to bed

My precious one my darling one, don't let your lashes weep.
My cherished one my weary one, it's time to go to sleep.

Just lie down your head and give your cares to me.
Just close your eyes and fall into the sweetest dream,
Because in my loving arms
You're as safe as you will ever be so hush my dear and sleep.

And in your dreams you'll ride on dragon's wings.
Dance with the Fairies and touch the face of Merlin...
and if you should awake
I'll send you back to sleep.

My precious one, my tiny one, I'll kiss your little cheek
And underneath the smiling moon I'll sing you back to sleep

Soon the baby had settled back down and stared at his mother with blue eyes. He let out a few sleepy gurgles causing the mother to smile down at her baby boy. Before long the boy was sleeping soundly and was placed back in his cot with a blanket put over him to keep him warm.

Soon the mother turned around to see her daughter in her husband's arms, smiling at her and she couldn't help but smile back at them.

"Mama, where did you learn that song", her daughter asked.

"I learnt it from my grandma. She used to sing it a lot when I was younger. So I started to sing it to my teddies so I wouldn't forget and when you were born, I sang it for you as well", she told her daughter, taking her from husband arms and into her own.

"Teddies, mummy? That's nice. It stops them getting scared if you sing to them'", her child said with a yawn.

"It was because I get to teach it to you and to your brother as well", she smiled at her daughter and headed back to her bedroom. She laid her daughter down in between her husband and herself, before pulling the bed covers over them. "Now it's time for you to go to sleep sweetie", she told her, kissing her forehead.

"Love you mummy. Love you daddy", the child said to them both, before closing her eyes and falling asleep.

"Love you too, my little angel", her father said softly.

"Love you too Lucy, my baby girl", her mother said, kissing her forehead again and brushing brown hair from her daughter face.

"Now that they're both a sleep, I think it's time we went to sleep as well, Mrs Wood", he said, reaching over and brushing her blonde hair behind her ear.

"My Firebird, My Phoenix", he said, reaching over and kissing her lightly on the lips before lying back down and falling asleep with his arms around his daughter.

Phoenix smiled that her husband of 6 years and her 4½ year old daughter. She had never felt more loved than she did at this moment. Even after getting back on track with her mother, father and brother. She looked down at them both and smiled. Both father and daughter had brown hair but daughter and son had taken after their mother when it came to having eyes bright blue.

"I love you too. My Keeper, My Oliver", she said just before she settled down to sleep. It was going to a busy day tomorrow for the family of 4. But for now the Wood household was asleep and content. The storm was no longer on any of their minds.
