It was almost time for Teddy to leave, the moon would be out soon and he didn't want to change in front of Lily. But Teddy didn't want to leave, his wife was nine months pregnant and she was due any day now, he didn't want to leave her if she went into labor.

"Teddy," a voice called softly from behind him. Teddy turned around in his seat to see his very pregnant wife standing in the doorway of their bedroom. "Baby, don't you have to leave soon?" She asked a hint of sadness in her tone. Teddy sighed, but nodded. They both knew that he had to leave. Teddy stood up from his desk and made his way over to her. He kissed her lips softly. Lily sighed into the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. They both wanted to get closer, but Lily's pregnant belly got in the way.

Just as the kiss started to get a little heated, the baby kicked. Teddy and Lily pulled apart, smiling.

"I think she's trying to tell you to leave," Teddy rolled his eyes. He got down on his knees and lifted Lily's shirt up. He kissed the spot where the baby kicked and whispered, "I love you, Dora. Please don't decide to come into the world while Daddy isn't home." He stood up and kissed Lily once more. "I love you," he whispered. Lily smiled sadly.

"I love you too." With a crack, he was gone.

*Later*

Lily woke up to find her bed wet. At first she didn't know what it was, until a sharp pain shot through her. Her water broke, and Teddy was in a shack in the woods with fur all over his body and no way to know that their daughter was on her way.

*When Teddy woke up the next morning*

Teddy woke up to the sound his name. Slowly, he opened his eyes to see James, Harry and Albus yelling at him.

"Bloody Hell, no need to scream," Teddy hissed. He felt like crap; he ached everywhere and his head was pounding. As if reading his mind, Albus handed him a pain potion.

"Hurry up and drink that, we have to get to St. Mungo's." Teddy almost spilled the potion.

"What? St. Mungo's," he almost yelled. Harry motioned him to take his potion. Teddy quickly chugged it down before he stood up and grabbed his clothes.

"Please tell me she didn't deliver," Teddy whispered after he put his clothing on. Harry patted him on the back.

"Last thing we heard, she was giving birth, but the baby wasn't out yet." Harry told him. With a crack, Teddy was gone.

Once at St. Mungo's, he found Lily's room and ran in. What he found made his heart stop.

Lily sat in a clean bed, holding something in a pink blanket. She looked up when the door opened and smiled sadly.

"She didn't listen," Lily stated sadly as she looked from Teddy to the baby. Fighting tears, Teddy made his way over to the bed. He looked down at the baby in awe.

She had a tuff of red hair on top of her head. She opened her eyes and looked at the new comer. Unlike most newborns her eyes weren't blue, they were gray; she had Teddy's eyes.

"She's beautiful," Teddy whispered, tears falling from his eyes. Just then, her hair changed from red to baby blue, the same shade as Teddy's was now. More tears fell from his eyes.

"Do you want to hold your daughter, Ted?" Lily asked softly. Teddy answered with a small nod.

Once in his arms, Teddy felt like he would break her, she was so tiny. Her gray eyes opened again, and she gave Teddy a look that almost said, who are you?

"Hi, Dora," Teddy whispered softly, trying to keep his voice calm, "I'm your Daddy. I-I'm sorry wasn't here when you were born," A tear feel onto the pink blanket, "But I promise that I won't miss any more important things." He kissed her now blonde hair. Teddy handed Dora back to her mother and held Lily as she cried. They would never get that moment back, the moment when their daughter was born.

*In Heaven*

There wasn't a dry eye in the living room. Tonks held on to Remus as she sobbed into his chest. Remus only had one thing going through his mind, this is my fault. It seemed that Lily Evens Potter was reading his mind. She glared at him through her tears and said, "Don't you dare blame yourself, Remus John Lupin." Remus was about to say something when his wife stopped him.

"It's not your fault, Remus. It's Greyback's. So don't even start with the "It's my fault," crap, because I don't want to hear a bloody thing about it!" Remus recoiled and nodded.

A/N: I had tears in my eyes while I wrote this. I hope you like it.
