A/n: This is a prologue kinda thing-a-ma-bob
And all the HHr seeking creatures, this is the place you want to be.
Welcome into my mind.
But I must warn you this is AU and a lot of things aren't the way they were.
And the obvious…
Disclaimer: None of this belongs to me, Harry Potter and the wizarding world belongs to J.K. Rowling(my queen) and I'm just borrowing it for entertainment purposes of myself and the other Potterheads.
On with the show...
Chapter 1
Instead of being woken up by his alarm clock, as usual, Harry instead found his mother by his bedside, shaking him by the arm. When swatting the persistent women away didn't work, Harry had no other option but to sit back straight by the headboard.
"Mum! It's my birthday!", Lily Potter chuckled at her 14-year old's whiny voice. He put his glasses back on and the beautiful and cheerful face of his mother came into view.
Lily took the breakfast tray from the tiny house elf and placed it in Harry's lap, "Well, I didn't ask you to stay up all night, watching the telly."
"It's not my fault, the new Jurrasic Park came out and Ron was excited, and then Padfoot didn't let us go back to bed, he gave me my birthday gift last night, the new 'Firebolt' and took us out for a game … or 8", Harry mumbled through a mouthful of bacon and sausages. Being the only heir to the Potter family, Harry was accustomed to being the centre of attention of their parent's life and the marauders too, sans Pettigrew.
"Speaking of gifts, you listen to me,", Lily pointed her finger in Harry's direction, "If your father offers you 14 abraxas horses for quidditch or a golden snitch made from real gold or something equally idiotic, you are not gonna accept!"
"Mum, I'm pretty sure dad's not gonna go completely crazy.", Lily bobbed her head to the left, her eyes shining as if challenging, 'Define crazy?'. The scarred boy gave a snort recalling last year, his father had invited the Chudley Cannons and the Montrose Magpies over to the manor for some friendly private matches in the manor's full-size quidditch pitch, which had resulted in the Captain of the Chudley cannons to leave with singed eyebrows. "Alright, I will refuse if dad goes over-the-line-crazy."
"Why will I go over-the-line-crazy?", the voice of the man in question echoed from the doorway. Both Harry and Lily turned back to look at the man dressed in his Auror robes, with a smirk featuring his lips. James Potter swaggered into the room with the same aloofness he had back when he was a teenager. When expecting a 34-year-old man, people usually imagined a middle-aged man drooping and lifeless eyes or a lazy walk or at least a few wrinkles around his eyes. James Potter however never seems to grow old, not a single wrinkle in sight, skin smooth as ever, and a build that can put an athletic to shame. And not at all appearing like a father of a 14-year-old.
Harry's smile slightly faltered when he noticed his father already in his work robes, "Are you going to the ministry? But it's Sunday!"
"I know bud, I'm sorry, there's some problem at the ministry, but I promise I'll be back before 4, and we'll all go to the theatre and watch that 'Mask' movie you've been talking about. Yeah? How does that sound? And then we'll have dinner at your favourite muggle Italian restaurant. And then maybe some quidditch, you, me, Moony, Padfoot, Ron and your mother, and the Weasley's maybe? Yeah?"
Another shy smile crept back on Harry's face and he nodded his head slightly, "Yeah alright. Ok! I'm gonna go wake up Padfoot and Ron," Finishing off his pumpkin juice, he tossed his muffin in the air and caught it before standing up. He slipped on his robe and headed for the door, "We have to go pick up Hermione before, Moony has a surprise planned for us."
Harry left the room smiling and missed the grim expression on his father's face. Lily turned to him and asked, "What is it?"
Looking back at her, his jaw clenched and his eyes narrow. he replied, "Pettigrew escaped from Azkaban this morning."
A/n: This was kind of a prologue but please consider it chapter 1. The next chapter's kinda just Harry's birthday, and the ones here for HHr ship, you might find a fair few snippets. Not a lot, mind you, I want to develop their relationship slowly and steadily.
Anyway, I have quite a bit planned for this fic, you know HarryxHermione, JamesxLily, and a bit of a Moonstar too, but it's mainly just HHr.
Sneak Peek: There's gonna be Lily and Snape interactions, just comedy snippets mostly, but the idea just intrigued me.
And I'm still a bit insecure about this fic, I haven't read this kind of fic anywhere and would just appreciate it if any readers(if there are any) could let me know whether they are interested in this idea.
So here's the drill:
