Chapter 1

July 31, 1980

James ran his hand through his untidy hair as he paced back and forth across the floor. They were waiting in the Visitor's Tearoom. He had brought Lily (who'd gone into labor about one hour ago) to St. Mungo's Hospital. Sirius watched James pacing with amusement on his handsome face. "Why don't you just take it easy and relax, mate?" Sirius said, finally breaking the silence.

James shook his head. "I can't relax. My wife is in a separate room on the sixth floor, giving birth to my son."

Sirius smirked and rolled his eyes. "I know James, as if I couldn't figure it out," he muttered. When Lily's water had broken, James ran upstairs and into Sirius' room, yelling that Lily was giving birth. Sirius heart almost stopped. "NOW?" he exclaimed incredulously. "I don't know the first thing about bringing a baby into this world," he added frantically, putting his clothes on and then throwing a pair of clothes at the naked witch in his bed. He gestured for her to get dress and leave.

"Lily is not having the baby now," James replied exasperated. "She's having contractions."

"Really?" Sirius inquired. "How for apart?"

James rolled his eyes. It was so typical of Sirius to think he knew about the effects of childbirth, when in fact he knew nothing about it at all. James sighed. "Five minutes apart."

Sirius' face was grave and with a nod of his head he said, "Not good. We should get her to the hospital immediately."

"But..." James was about to respond that it was normal for Lily to have contractions, after all, it was part of giving birth, but Sirius grabbed him and left the room swiftly.

James lips twitched. "I'm pretty sure you could figure it out, seeing as how you don't know the first thing about bringing a child into this world," James teased.

"Must you bring that up?" Sirius asked referring to the earlier conversation that they had back home.

"I'll never let you forget it." James winked.

Sirius was about to respond when a soft voice spoke, "hello James, sorry I'm late. I had a last minute client at the Ministry." James had flooed Nadine at her job, announcing that Lily had gone into labor.

James turned toward the voice and smiled. "It's alright, Nadine...I'm glad that you could come," he said warmly. He opened up his arms and Nadine walked into his friendly embrace.

Sirius' heart hitched into his throat at the sight of his former lover. He had not seen her in two years and yet she still looked the same, except for her eyes that were once filled with life, were now hallow.

Sirius swallowed hard, knowing the reason for those beautiful brown eyes being dull, it was because of him. He was young, wild, and carefree, not ready to make a long-term commitment to a woman. He truly cared for Nadine and even loved her in his own way, but he wasn't in love with her like she was with him. Perhaps one day all of that might change, but for now he would live his life one day at a time.

Nadine pulled back from James' embrace and studied him. "How are you holding up?"

"I'm holding," James swallowed. "To be honest, I'm nervous."

Nadine smiled slightly. "That would be a normal reaction for a father." her slight smile turned into a frown. "Why are you not in the birthing room with Lily?"

"Because James here, got kicked out," a rich silky voice that Nadine recognized, said. "Instead of making Lily comfortable, he only made her miserable, therefore bringing about his dismal from the birthing room."

Nadine's heart began to beat wildly upon hearing Sirius' smooth silk voice. She closed her eyes briefly and then opened them. It seemed like she could not turn around for the life of herit was as if her body was frozen. You can do this Nadine. All you have to do is turn around and greet him politely. No hard feelings right? After all, the relationship ended two years ago and he has moved on, leaving you heartbroken and sick; you were even admitted into this very same hospital, where your dearest friend is now giving birth to her first-born son.

No matter how hard she tried to forget about the heartache and betrayal, it only intensified her anguish that much more. She was always taught growing up to love her enemies and forgive those that hurt and even mistreat her. Nadine had to admit to herself that showing mercy to her enemies was a hard thing to do. But is Sirius your enemy? She asked herself. She bit her lip and furrowed her brow in consternation until finally she concluded that he was not her adversary.

Noticing her plight, James put his arm around her shoulder and turned her around to face Sirius. "Now, that's better," he said softly breaking the silence.

Seeing the dark-haired wizard for the first time since they graduated school, caused a longing in Nadine. In spite of his betrayal, she still loved him with all her heart and wanted nothing more then to run into his arms and never let him go, but she knew it was impossible. "Hello Sirius," Nadine said in a steady voice.

"Hello Nadine," Sirius drawled, rising from his seat. He walked over to her in two strides taking her hand, he placed a kiss upon it. "It has been a long time since last we saw each other."

Nadine removed her hand from his after a few seconds. "Yes, it has been a long time." she looked into his grey-eyes that still twinkled with mischief...lust...desire. Nadine shook her head slightly, bringing herself back into reality. "I trust that life has been well with you," she inquired curiously.

"Life has treated me kindly so far without my dysfunctional family," Sirius replied. "And working on cases for the Order of the Phoenix, I'm enjoying myself tremendously. Enough about me. How have you been?" he asked concerned.

"I'm fine," Nadine's voice trembled nervously. "I was recently promoted as head of The Distressed Witches Department. Before my promotion, I worked for Lucius Malfoy as his personal secretary." Sirius stiffened at the mention of the snobbish pure-blood's name. Lucius was one of the twelve governors on the Governing Board of Hogwarts, rich and married to Sirius' cousin, Narcissa. He had heard that the aristocratic family had a one month old son, Draco. Sirius wondered what parent in their right mind would name their child after a serpent, dragon? Only Lucius would.

"I have a case load so my life has been very busy." she nodded her head. Sirius was bought back from his thoughts at the sound of her voice. He narrowed his eyes, sensing that something with Nadine was amiss.

"Are you sure everything is well with you?" he asked carefully.

"I'm...I'm fine," Nadine stammered flustered.

"Look, if you ever need..."

"I said I'm fine," she interrupted brusquely. James gave Sirius a stern look indicating that he should drop the matter, in which Sirius responded with a raised brow and a look of determination that meant the subject was far from over, but he would let it rest for now.

Two hours later, a healer came into the tearoom and announced the new arrival to the Potter's Family. Sirius clapped James on the back, proudly. "Congratulations, Mate!"

Nadine smiled widely and threw her arms around James, hugging him tightly. "Congratulations, I am so happy for you," she whispered as tears trickled down her cheeks. Dislodging from the embrace, James asked the healer if they could see his wife and they were led to the sixth floor.
