Y/N POV

THE NEXT FEW months pass by rather blissfully. Sirius and I may not be married but it feels like it in the best way. We spend our days together, meeting with other members of the Order, making plans to take down Voldemort. Then at night, we go back to our shared room and fuck until we're tired. 

Lily gives birth to a baby boy who they name Harry James Potter. He has a tuft of black hair on his head that's the same shade as his father's. But his emerald green eyes are identical to his mother's. But when the crying of baby Harry becomes too much in the middle of the night, Sirius and I decide it's best for us to finally get our own place.

"I've called you all here today, because I have some troubling news to share with you." Dumbledore says as we all sit around the living room of James' house. Despite only being a couple months old, Harry is thankfully sleeping soundly in his crib upstairs. 

"A prophecy has been made recently, by someone I trust. And well, I think it's best if you hear it for yourself..." He trails off before laying a glass orb on the coffee table at the center of the room.

Smoke swirls in the glass sphere and then a husky gravelly voice starts to speak. 

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches...born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives...the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies..." The voice fades out, leaving us all in silence. 

"My sources tell me that Voldemort intends to come after Harry. And that's not all. My sources also reveal that he's coming for y/n. He plans to kill them both."

I suck in a breath. I knew this was coming. I knew he would come after me for my betrayal eventually. But Harry? He's a baby.

"What? What will we do?" Lily asks, and I can tell she's barely able to get the words out. 

"My best suggestion is for you and James to go into hiding with Harry and have someone as your secret keeper. Same goes for you and Sirius, y/n."

*****

We did exactly what Dumbledore told us to do. Sirius and I went into hiding with Remus as our secret keeper. Sirius was originally going to be the secret keeper for James, but we decided to change it at the last minute. I'd much rather die than Harry, so I knew that he would go after Remus first to get our location and then get James' location from Sirius. But at least by Peter being the secret keeper instead, if Voldemort got to us, he wouldn't get James, Lily and Harry's location. Or so we thought. 

****
A/N: I know technically only the person the prophecy is about can touch the orb, but lets pretend for this that he had a different orb or something. 

Sorry for the chapter being super short! Another chapter will be out either today or Saturday and I believe that will be the last one.
