Dearest Harry, Sirius and Remus,

We wondered how long it would take the two of you to see what we saw back in final year, the two of you are so obviously made for eachother. We are sorry we can't be with you this Christmas or any Christmas, but, believe us if there was any way we could be we would. We will miss so much of you growing up Harry, but trust in us, we are watching over you, all of you, a loved and lost one will never really leave you.

We do not know when this letter will reach you, it could be five years it could be fifty, all we can say is that it will find you after Remus and Sirius have announced their wedding and once Harry is old enough to understand and even then you know what James's charms are like. We must go now, our time is almost up, we have made the catastrophic mistake of entrusting our lives to someone whom we had considered a friend, there is no hope for us, all we can do is seek to save you Harry, and, you will be saved for we have something the dark lord will never have and never know, love.

All of our love, now and forever

James and Lilly

Harry lifted his blurry gaze from the paper to stare out of the window, in the reflection he saw a smiling dark haired man, his arm wrapped protectively around a small redhead's waist, Harry spun to look behind him but, alas, they were gone.
