It had been about a month and a half since Remus found out he was pregnant. And he was beginning to show, much to his great embarrassment. One morning, while he was standing in front of the mirror, he poked the small bulge and watched as it jiggled,
"I look like peter!" He wailed, trying to pull his shirt down to cover the blob.
"What was that Hun?" Sirius called, poking his head in. Remus gasped, jumping, eyes wide in fright,
"Don't sneak up on me!" He cried, chucking a pillow at Sirius' head. Sirius closed his eyes as it bounced harmlessly off his face, and bent to pick it up.
"Oh, come now, no need to be cranky my dear." He smiled and wrapped his muscled arms around Remus' torso, hands caressing the baby bump. "How's my baby mama this morning? Do you want me to fix you anything to eat?" Remus nodded, head pressed into Sirius' chest, heaving a heavy sigh, Remus pulled away and walked to the small vanity and got a hair tie and quickly tossed his hair into a bun. Sirius smiled and walked out of the room and into the kitchen. Remus sighed, and pointed his wand at the shirt and muttered the words, and relaxed slightly when the fabric expanded a size, falling cleanly over his bulge. He smiled, and walked into the kitchen, and eagerly devoured the pancakes that were set in front of him. Sirius chuckled, watching Remus completely devour the blueberry pancakes. Smirking, he leaned forward, and licked a bit of syrup from the corner of Remus' mouth, Remus' eyes widened, and he blushed, staring at his husband. Sirius smirked, licking his lips slightly, and winked. Suddenly the two heard someone pounding on the door, and then a woman's scream and plead. The two ran to the door and flung it open, Lily clutched the doorframe, panting, staring wildly over her shoulder, a sobbing Harry clutch tightly against her breast,
"Take Harry!" She screamed, and ran; Remus cradled Harry against him, watching as Sirius ran after Lily. She took him to the Potter home, and in the windows he could see lights flashing brilliantly, and then backing out the front door, he saw James, battling fiercely, a feral snarl on his lips, and following close behind him, battling just as cruelly, was Lord Voldemort himself.
"You will not touch my family! You will not harm my wife and son, you will not touch them!" He shouted angrily, his wand a blur, jets and beams of light exploding out of the tip. A burst of red light hit him directly over his heart, with a fierce cry, he toppled backwards, Lily screamed and ran forward, wand out, she pointed it at the laughing man, and shouted two words, one of the unforgivable curses, and Lord Voldemort was no more. She let her wand drop to the ground unnoticed, as she fell against James, sobbing,
"Wake up! Come on, wake up!" Sirius bit his lip and turned his head, the dog inside of him howling its pain. Sirius whimpered like the dog, and knelt at James' side, it felt like a herd of dementors were closing in, ready for the kiss. Suddenly Lily gasped, and looked down, James was smiling at her, hand pressed against her cheek, he sighed, and pulled her face down to his, kissing her lips,
"It was just a stunner, my dear." He muttered, she sobbed harder, burying her face into his chest, clutching him.
"Never knew you cared so much." He murmured, she chuckled weakly,
"Of course I care you great dolt, of course I care." She finished at a whisper, kissing him again.
