Harry was now four and a half, toddling around the small house and driving his caretaker crazy everyday. His magic grew stronger with each birthday that past. When his eye's scrunched up he'd probably make something fly across the room or a vase break or the flowers grow to fast and way to big.
Her name was Madeline Rosen, A muggleborn witch that attended Hogwarts with Harry's parents and had been a friend of Lily's since Preschool. Watching Harry grow was just something out of the blue, He was a spitting image of James and had Lily's personality and her charming green eyes.
Remus would come and visit time to time, the forest that surrounded her home kept her well hidden and was hard to get to. Remus would attend Harry's birthday parties and he even came to stay for a Christmas when Harry was three.
Harry was now running around the house looking for his crayons so he could draw Madeline a picture. She laughed as she made them appear in the room and he squealed with delight as he got to work at his drawing. Standing over the stove she made chicken soup for is lunch, Suddenly a knock came on the door, a pounding more than a knock. She rushed and picked up harry and told him to stay put in his room as she locked his door and went back and turned off the stove. The pounding on the door became more furious, she grabbed her wand and opened the door.
"Severus?"
"Where is the boy"
"I don't know what your talking about, I didn't say you could enter"
The tall man dressed in all black pushed his way into the little cottage and started to look around the room, tearing the couch from the wall to see if a child was under there.
"Where is he Madeline, I know McGonagall gave you Lily's child"
"And how did you come upon this information?"
"I visited Petunia and she said she's never heard of the child"
"Now Severus that doesn't mean I have him"
"You were the next best option"
"I suppose I could take that as a compliment"
"Where is he"
"I'm not giving him to you Severus, He's mine now"
"Don't test me Madeline"
"Or what?! what will you do?"
"This"
