Scarlet is 4 here

WHEN SIRIUS BLACK HEARD LOUD coughs first thing in the morning, he knew it wasn't good, especially since they didn't come from beside him, but from his daughters bedroom.

He knocked on the door across the hallway, getting a croaked "come in" from the little girl. When he went inside, she was cuddled in her blankets and visibly shivering.

"Good morning, how are you feeling?"

"'M cold and my throat hurts."

He stepped closer to her putting the palm of his hand onto her forehead.

"Godric, you're burning up! Hold on, I'll get the thermometer."

Once he returned, his husband sat on the bed, Scarlets head laying on his lap. The brunette was stroking her hair, trying to soothe her ache. Sirius quickly checked her temperature.

"40.3 degrees. That's not good." The curly-haired man stated.

"I think you've caught a cold, sweetie." Remus told the girl, who just lazily nodded, still shivering.

The temperature had dropped quite a lot in the past days, so they kind of expected her to catch a cold, also stocked with medicine, which they didn't hesitate to give her quickly.

"I'll make some tomato soup to warm her up. Do we have any more blankets for her?" Remus asked Sirius.

"No, I don't think so."

"Oh oka- wait, didn't Regulus just send her one? I don't see it here."

"Oh, I don't think it's going to help."

"Why? What's wrong with it? I don't think Regulus would get his favourite niece a blanket of bad quality."

"It's not that, Moony."

"Then what is it?"

"It's a Slytherin blanket." Sirius grumbled, making the other roll his eyes.

"Get over yourself. Bring the blanket, Sirius." Remus demanded

Thirty minutes later Scarlet was in her bed, wrapped in the emerald green blanket, eating freshly made tomato soup.

"It's really good, thank you daddy." She smiled, feeling warmed up instantly.

"You're welcome sweetie. I'm gonna go now, I have to go to the market and get some things from town, but papa will be with you in a bit, okay?" He hugged her and left her room.

"Do you think you can sleep a bit now?" Sirius asked her after she had finished her soup, putting the empty plate and cutlery onto the bedside table. She looked very tired, her eyes barely still open.

"Don't wanna go to sleep alone."

"That's okay, is it fine if I read you a story?" He asked her lovingly, to which she nodded.

"Alright then"

He picked a book from her bookshelf, sat on her bed and spread her across his lap. He began reading the story.

"Once upon a time, there was a girl who lived in a small town..."

He didn't even notice that his daughter had already fallen asleep. He continued reading the story, desperate for finding out how it would end. When he finally finished, he put the book aside and carefully braided the sleeping girls' hair into two braids, a very protective hairdo. Then, he slowly lifted her off of his lap, placing her head on the pillow and pulling all of the blankets over her. Finally, he kissed her forehead and whispered "love you"
