Lily drank from her cup of tea her hazel eyes wide as she watched her brother Albus flit around the kitchen, while his husband Scorpius attempted to get him to sit down and eat something. Lily strained her ears so that she could hear her parents out in the hallway talking in low voices about their eldest child. She could barely make out what they were saying but she knew there was a reason for that.
Lily's head snapped up as her god-brother Teddy entered the room, his normally bright hair a dull brown as he poured two mugs of coffee. Teddy then picked them up offering a small smile to Lily as he left the room with the mugs without saying a word.
He didn't need to really.
Eventually, Harry and Ginny entered the room and it was apparent that they had been crying but also arguing. Lily knew that they had been arguing and she knew what they had been arguing about: James.
It felt like it was hours later before anyone spoke or anyone bar Albus moved again. Teddy entered the kitchen a little boy clutching hold of his hand with one of his tiny hands. The other was being used to grasp hold of a purple plush dinosaur. Teddy was followed into the room by James who had a little girl perched on his hip her head nestled into his neck. James moved and placed his mug into the sink and looked at Albus with tired eyes.
"Al…stop moving and eat something will you?"
Albus glanced up at his brother but nodded and allowed Scorpius to guide him to a seat while Ginny placed some food in front of him.
Today was going to be hard.
So was tomorrow.
And the next day.
That's the thing about death, it never gets easier.
Sometimes it hurts more than the day they died.
Thanks for reading xx
