"The weather looks beautiful today! Care for a picnic Tom?" the blonde woman chirped

"If you wish, darling" the man named Tom replied

"Yes! Alright, I'll fill the basket with pastries. You get the blanket and our boy!" the woman excitedly ranted

Tom chuckled and did what his wife asked him to do. He walked up the long stairs and continued towards their son's chamber.

He softly opened the door, careful to not make a sound. His smile brightened upon seeing his new-born baby boy quietly napping on his crib.

Tom went to pick up the baby's basinet and placed a small cushion and blankets to make it soft and comfortable. He gently lifted his son, making sure not to wake him up and carefully placed him on his basinet.

He cooed when the baby sleepily babbled.

Tom picked up the basinet with the baby on it and left the room.

"My little boy is here!" the woman brightly smiled and got the basinet out of Tom's hands.

The couple sat on the blanket that was placed on the soft grass and prepared the pastries that the woman baked

"Look at this pie Tom!" said the woman

Tom chuckled and sliced a piece of pie for his wife.

The couple ate and made small talk.

"We need some music, don't you think?" said the woman

"Let me." Tom flicked his wand and in a second, music softly started playing in the background while the woman swayed to the soft beat

"Oh this song is just lovely!" the woman stood up, went barefoot and danced around. Her long skirt flowing, her hair flying around, her laughter resounding at the garden.

Tom lovingly smiled at the woman, silently thanking the universe for giving him—her.

"Darling. Come over here. You have to finish your pie." Tom chuckled

"But I'm full!" the woman whined

"Just one more bite, my love." Tom smiled

"Fine. Just one more." The woman agreed

The woman kneeled and took one last bite of her pie.

The baby who laid on the basinet continued napping, letting out soft snores which made the couple smile.

Tom looked at his wife and smiled even more.

"You're amazing, my love." Tom cooed

"Stop!" the woman blushed and slapped his hand away

Tom chuckled and wrapped his arms around the woman. They both laid down and silently listened to the music playing in the background.

The woman then turned and laid on her stomach.

"Tom.." the woman started

"Mhm?"

"I—" the woman cut herself off when she saw an old familiar man lifting his wand towards her husband

Knowing what was about to come, she pushed Tom away and went in front—

"Tom!"

"Avada Kedavra!"
