(JamesPov) (ProngsPov)
Harrys now 7 months old. Hes so calm amd a good baby. Lilys rocking him in the living room while I am waiting for Sirius to show. We have something important to share.  Lily and I havent been able to leave our house yet.  We are having some good news of our own. We want Sirius to be the Godfather.
We hear a knock at our door. "Its Sirius."
I hate doing this but I have to
"If your Really Sirius, what did you say when you first moved into the house?" I asked
"Prongs, My dear Mother saved me the trouble and kicked me out. Bad News is I got nowhere else to go." Sirius says
We let him in. "Sorry Buddy, Soon we hope." I promise
"Dont worry mate." He promises
We walk into the Family room. Harrys on a little pile of small blankets on the floor.
Sirius picks up Harry. Hands still tremble as he does this. Hes done that for weeks.
I swear he had  tears running down his face.
"Sirius- are- are you crying?" Lily asks
"No." He says to quickly. Blinking a few good times. He is bobbing his knees up and down which Harry rests as his eyes are scruntched.
I cleared my throat "We, er....... Mate, We were wondering if you would like to be Harrys Godfather?" I ask
Lily has a hold of my hand.
Baby Harry yawns, Sirius hold Harry tighter.
"Did you hear what I just said?" I asked
"Sorry?" Says at me
"We want you to be Harrys Godfather." I say
Sirius looked down at Harrys small sleeping face. The tiny button nose, little tiny arches of thin eyebrows. A small head of Jet black hair.
I knew Sirius would fight any battle for this little boy. Harry James Potter. Mine and Lilys Son.
Sirius looked up. A small smile on his lips, he nodded
"I would be honored." He answers
Harry slept in Sirius's arms for hours. Much longer than anywhere else. Harry
Remus knocked on the door. We did the questioning. "Hello Prongs, Miss Lily Potter, Sup Paddy?" He says
"Hello Remus." Lily says "How was your day?" Lily asks politly
"It was alright," Remus asked
We have so much to think about. Remus and Sirius do too. We cant add to their stress right now
"Yes, 2 months. I dont like that Baby Harry will have spent the first year of his life in his house." Lily says
"Dont worry Honey, Itll be over soon. We will give him such a good life." I say trying to comfort her.
"You guys are lucky. Ill never be married or have children." Remus says
"Dont be absurd Remus. Your taking out of your mind buddy." Sirius says
"Honestly. Remus, how could you be so selfish to deprive the world of such a wonder." Lily says
Remus smiled at her. I love my Lilypad. Lily Marie Evans Potter.
Marlene Mckinniom and Alice Longbottom (Prewitt)  are coming over as well. Lily is feeding Harry his bottle. So I had to answer the door. I did the stupid questioning thing. I let them in "Potter, How long until thats over." Marlene asked
Lily winced visiby at that question.
"Soon we hope." I say
Marlene nodded. Alice Longbottom was here too. She had a baby of her own Frank Longbottom. He was born a little before Harry. Which I thinks cool our sons were born in the same month of July. Its the 2nd week into Semptember now.
Harry started to cry. "James, Can you sing that song please?" Lily asks
I nod. "Go to sleep, Go to sleep. Under your blankie. A bed of Grass, Your soft blue Pillow. Here its safe, Here its warm. Here Momma an Pappa will guard you from every harm. Here is where we love you Harry. Goodnight, Sleep tight." I sing
Harry yawns. He takes his hand amd wraps it around my pointer finger. "Ill put Harry in his crib." Padfoot suggests
"Ok." Lily says handing our son over to Sirius.
His play crib is in the family room at the moment. We plan on keeping it there as he is only a baby.
