Jily and Harry : Cost of Love

Chapter 5

After the dinner feast Harry felt happier than he could ever be, he did not know why he was attracted to James and Lily, but he did not mind it at all. Harry felt sleepy all of a sudden, he blinked several times trying not to succumb to sleep but eventually gave in landing his head into Lily's lap.

Lily smiled at James as Harry laid on her lap, James noticed and looked at Harry with pride.

James stands up from his seat and lifted his son carefully not to wake him, Lily followed them to make sure that they get to the room safely, aware of the eyes around them but they did not care as they walked out of the Great Hall to go to the head's common room which was extended by Dumbledore for Harry to sleep on.

Remus, Sirius, Marleen, and Alice were left in total shock after James and Lily carried the kid out of the great hall "hey Padfoot did you see what the boy looked like?" Remus asked, "yes I did, he looked exactly like Progs but with Lily's eyes and a lightning bolt-shaped scar" Sirius stated which was agreed by Alice, Marleen, and Remus.

"Do you think their Hiding something from us I mean there is a possibility the child's theirs" Marleen argued "Marl's if he did have a child with Lily, he would have been running around saying he had a baby with Evans" Sirius interjected "but what will happen if it is true, hmm I mean that boy looks like James with Lily's eyes" Alice argues earning a hum of response from the three.

James and Lily found themselves in the head's common room where all Harry's necessities were provided like clothes and bathing supplies.

James put little Harry in his room which was surprisingly clean, lily began to get a small towel, a basin, and some water, Lily drenched the small towel into the basin filled with water, she twisted it until no drops were formed and rubbed the towel on Harry's body so that he had bathed.

After lily's so-called bath James came in with some pajamas for him, James asked lily to leave for a while seeing that he had to change his son's clothes, lily agreed and walked out, James began to change his shirt, pants, and underwear seeing that his clothes were old, big and worn out.

After changing James went outside of his bedroom to see Lily on a desk by the common room doing her homework for Charms, her hair flowed gracefully into her face, her serious face captivated him, James is trying his best not to pounce on her and kiss her on the spot which was a big struggle for him.

Lily looked up to see James staring at her "James are you alright how's Harry?" Lily asked which snapped James out of his daze as he now motioned to one of the armchairs by the fireplace "he's fine Lil's I just changed his clothes and he is now sleeping soundly" James said proudly, Lily smiled and went back to her homework "hey James?" she asked while focused on her work "do you think it would be I don't know different if we lived in the future? I mean I just don't want our future son suffering like that." James thought for a moment and motioned to her, he hugged her tightly fighting the urge to kiss her neck and collar bone in his position, Lily was startled at what James was doing but immediately found comfort in his embrace, she took down the quill and rested in the chair of her desk letting James's embrace warm her.

A few minutes later James pulled out the hug and knelt in front of her cupping his right hand into Lily's soft rosy cheeks wiping a stray tear on her face, Lily felt a shock on her spine when James's hand touched her cheeks, she tensed a but quickly recovered as she focused on James's hand thinking of Harry.

"James should we tell him that we are his parents'' Lily asked, James stared at her green emerald eyes as it shines like a perfect jewel "Lil's I know that things are now different seeing our fate and how our relationship grew seeing our boy sleeping in that room, right now I just wanted to kill those blasted Durley's for what they had done to our boy but seeing that's impossible but if you want to tell him we'll tell him tomorrow he deserves to know," James said, he smiled at Lily like she was the last thing living on earth.

They did not know how long they were in that position, but Lily noticed that it was time for Head duties. She told James which earned him a groan but agreed, they exited the common room and began their rounds.

After 3 hours of patrol, they head back to the common room where Harry was.

They opened the door of the common room to see Harry in the fireplace.

Harry noticed the door creaking open and saw James and Lily enter, he immediately ran to lily with tears in his eyes, Lily noticed Harry's tears from her robes, she quickly knelt to his height wiping of stray tears from his face while fixing his hair, James noticed this and knelt to the ground as well and began to comfort him by rubbing his shoulder.

Lily asked what happened to him, Harry sniffed and told them that he was back in uncle Vernon's place and he started whipping him and hurting me again saying that they left him and a hooded man was pointing a stick at him and something came out of it a green light and he started screaming, after explaining he hugged lily tightly which She returned with a tighter hug, James joined them as he embraced both his long time crush and future son.

After a minute they broke the hug and stared at each other, Lily offered Harry to sleep with him and James, he nodded enthusiastically at the proposition, James carried him to his bed and began to change his clothes while Lily went to her room to change, after a few minutes Lily entered the room to see James and Harry on the bed, She walked to the other side of the bed and brushed Harry's hair gently as Harry drifted to sleep, James and Lily felt tiredness overcome them and fell asleep as well.
