Harry smiled as he watched himself? or his nephew? flying around on the toy broom Sirius brought him for his first birthday.
"Remind me to kill Sirius when I see him!" Lily cried as Harry broke an ugly vase that Petunia had given Lily and James for their wedding present. Harry started giggling as he flew around the living room floor again only to be picked up by Lily causing him to cry. "Oh hush little one," Lily cooed. But Harry carried on crying and grabbing for his broom. "Oh please Harry be quite it's time for bed baby," Lily soothed. But nothing was working and the baby carried on crying.
"Let me try," Harry said walking forward. Lily hesitated but handed Harry over to his uncle Harry. The baby immediately stopped crying. Lily frowned but said nothing as Harry fell asleep in his uncle's arms.
"You have the magic touch little brother," James laughed.
"I'm a wizard James of course I do,"Harry laughed.
"Oh hardy har har," James retorted taking his son from his brother and passing the baby to his mother who took him upstairs to bed.
It was the night of the fidelus charm being cast on the Potter's house. Harry and Teddy knew they couldn't change what was going to happen as the baby needed the scar to save so many people in the future and to save the wizarding world. "I hate it that we can't do anything about this," Harry grumbled as he paced around the room.
"I know Harry but really we are changing Harry's life we're giving him parents to grow up with and who care for him and we're saving Sirius twelve years in Azkaban," Teddy pointed out.
"I know but I wish I could do more," Harry sighed as he plopped down next to Teddy on the sofa in the Gryffindore common room. "The most we can do at the moment is ask to go home for Halloween," Harry whispered and Teddy nodded.
