It's been awhile since I wrote here. But, I just re-read it and I figured out a post. Hope you like... Thanks for the replies. I really appreciate it- you have no idea how good they make me feel.
One Moment
By. Mandi Bartell
The next morning Seth found himself lying on the living room couch covered with a bunch of blankets. He couldn't quite remember what happened the night before- it was all a blur. The dream, being in the kitchen with his 'parents'.
The sound of Elmo's world came to his ears and when he opened his eyes Logan was sitting in front of the TV with his fingers in his mouth watching a furry red monster on the TV.
"La,la,la,la Elmo's World... Elmo loves his goldfish and his crayon too, that's Elmo's World..."
Seth rolled his eyes and turned on his side, holding his arms up to his barechest.
"Dada, Dada," Logan said, spitting as he babbled.
"Hey buddy. Where's Mumma?" Seth heard his dad ask.
Logan of course didn't answer and James left the living room and Seth heard him enter the kitchen.
"Hi honey. Have you heard anything from Harry this morning?" James asked Lily.
"No, he hasn't moved as far as I know. Logan's been babbling a lot too, he must be in a hard sleep," Lily said.
"Hmm. Are the girls still asleep?" James asked.
"Yes. It's still early- I have to get going for work. You got everything under control?" Lily asked.
"Of course I do!" James shouted.
"Okay, good-bye. Love you," Lily said and the sound of them kissing followed out into the living room.
Seth's stomach did a flip-flop as he thought of David and how much he missed him. Somehow he was going to see David today... maybe they could hang out or something. Something inside of Seth told him that wasn't going to happen, though. They wanted Seth to spend time with Lily and James as much as possible and not so much with David, to get him used to how it should be.
"Love you too. I don't know what we're going to do today- Meagan and Kayla have camp 8-2. I might take Logan to the park or something," James said.
"Why don't you take them to the lake or something. Spend some bonding time with Harry," Lily said.
"Oh, okay. We'll see what happens. I wanted to go to ToysRUs and get Logan some new toys- I've been itching to get him that little Quidditch play set," James said.
"What about your other son?" Lily asked.
"Maybe I'll get him a new snowboard or something like he's been asking for. We did miss his birthday-" James said.
"Not really. But that sounds like a good idea. You three have fun today and say hi to everyone for me," Lily said.
They kissed one last time before the door shut and Lily had gone.
"Okay, Loggie. What should we do?" James asked, coming over and sitting on the floor next to Logan.
Seth listened to them for a minute, frowning. They were a happy family and he shouldn't be there- but with David.
"AW!" Seth shouted, putting his hands up to his forehead as his scar sirred with pain.
"Har- Seth?" James asked, getting up and kneeling by the couch Seth lay on.
"My head!" Seth shouted, getting up. His eyes blurry as the pain rushed through his whole body now.
"Your scar hurts?" James asked, concern in his voice.
"Make it stop!" Seth shouted.
"I can't, you just have to wait it out. I'm sorry," James said, rubbing Harry's arm.
Seth tore it away in fury and got up quickly, stepping on Logan's hand as he crawled over.
"AH!" Logan cried, pulling his hand away and looking up at his big brother with a angry little face.
"You're supposed to be a wizard! MAKE IT STOP!" Seth shouted, putting alot of pressure on his head as his body felt on fire.
After a few minutes the pain subsided. Seth was out of breath and his body slowly relaxing as the pain left him.
"Are you okay?" James asked.
"NO! Bring me to David!" Seth shouted, looking up at James.
"I'm sorry, I can't!" James shouted.
"Then what good are you?!" Seth screamed, tears falling from his eyes. He bent forward and buried his face in his knees, rocking himself back and fourth as he always did when upset.
