James played happily with Jamie but ignored Harry the whole time they were there. Everyone could see Lily was getting pissed.

"James, " she snapped, "You have two sons!" James blinked at her then looked to where Harry was sitting staring at him with white eyes. "Uh, hey, Harry."

Harry saw the words float around James as he said them. They were yellow. The man was uncomfortable.

"Hello." Harry said, "I'm glad you are alive. " James gave him an awkward smile. "Are you feeling well?"

"Better than I was last night ." James told the boy. "Uh...did you look after everyone?"

"Yep." Harry told him. His white eyes almost glowing. "Mama said you got hurt by the bad man."

"I'm doing better." James said. His words were red.

"You are still in pain." he told the man. "Your magic is pulsing with pain. " he cocked his head to the side the Healers were moving forward two of them. Dumbledore was frowning. "Your magic feels weird like Mama's did before the Healers fixed it."

"Harry means James has Charms on him." Lily told the two Healers. "I had love, lust, and hate charms on me. Yesterday I had them removed along with the bindings on Jamie and Harry's magic. "

"Their magic was bound?" Jamie asked, frowning. "But Harry's always doing his eye thing."

Dumbledore almost flinched when those white eyes looked at him. It was like they were seeing into his soul.

"Yes, apparently Harry resisted most of the binding." One of the Healers said. "Come here, Harry." The woman held her hands out. Harry held his arms up. This woman's magic was like Sev's. She smiled and picked him up. She then passed him to the were wolf and took Jamie handing him to Sirius. She then began waving her wand over James. "hello, Lord Potter. " she said softly. "I am Eileen Prince. "

Lily grabbed Severus' arm as he moved forward that was Severus' mother's name! James saw this.

"You two know this Healer?" he asked.

"That's Severus' Mother's name." Lily said, the Healer faced them and frowned. "We thought Severus' mother died when he was 16."

"I'm sorry but I have no memories for the last five years. " Eileen said, "I was brought here around then beaten and almost dead. Now please I must tend to my patient. "

Severus watched the woman. He studied her then shocked everyone by grabbing Harry and holding him out to the woman.

"You can see magic with those eyes of yours right?"

"Right." Harry said,

"Can you feel family magic?"

"Don't know." Harry said, "Do you mean when her magic feels like your magic? "

'Yes?" Severus said, uncertainly.

"Then yes. " Harry said, "Her magic is one shade darker than yours but it feels like your magic."

He blinked at Severus. This man's magic felt like his own. It was like James and Jamies magic. Did that make Severus his daddy? If it was family magic he was feeling? But how was that possible he and Jamie were twins.


Harry was looking back and forth between James and Severus as Severus held him to his chest.

"What's up?" James asked the boy. He was feeling better they'd given him some potions and removed whatever was on him. "What do you see?"

"I"m not exactly sure." Harry told the room. His eyes pulsed and they all felt the magic sweep the room. "I feel family magic between you and Jamie but not you and me. I don't understand. My family magic is connected to Sev."

"That's impossible." James said frowning. "I was there you two were born at the same time."

"You can't have different father's." Lily frowned, "I've never slept with anyone other than James. "

"But it's what I feel." Harry said, "My magic is just like Sev's."

Severus was frozen but made sure he was holding Harry securely . How was this child his? He smiled awkwardly at the boy in his arms staring up at him with his white eyes.

"Well, it's easy to find out." Eileen left and came back with some potions. "I just need hair. " TWo potions turned green saying Lily was of course the mother. Jamie and James' potion turned green but James' and Harry's turned red. Jamie and Harry 's turned yellow they were half siblings. Harry and Severus' potion turned green. "Well, that is odd."

"Harry is two minuets older than Jamie." Lily said, "There is no way this is possible."

Everyone noted that she looked torn and panicked not to mention was still holding Severus' arm. She tightened his grip on his arm. James stared and felt nothing.

"Hey, Lils remember what we were talking about before we were attacked?" he said , hugging his son to him. "Maybe you're right. With those spells off of me I can think a lot clearer now and I think you are right. Lets work everything out okay?"

Lily just nodded mutely. She'd been begging for a divorce since before they went into hiding. She clung to Severus' arm and ran her fingers through Harry's hair. His emerald green eyes were suddenly staring up at her. Jamie was oblivious to everything as he slept on James' chest.


It was two weeks later when James was released his magic had been in bad shape his core had almost been drained. During that time James and Lily had worked out the finer points of their divorce. What Lily fought tooth and nail for was that James wanted Jamie to live with him and Lily wanted both of her sons. Today they were in Madam Bones' office yelling at each other.

Harry sat in Severus' lap a Potions book in his lap.

"The..." he pointed to a word. " A..." he pointed to another word. Severus smiled down at the boy. "At...do..." these were words he and Lily had taught him to identify over the last two weeks. He couldn't read of course. "The..."

Jamie was on the floor hugging a teddy bear and sucking his thumb. Harry's eyes were green at the moment. He wasn't paying attention to anyone or anything.
