(July 2nd, 1980)
Remus Lupin was confused. Starring down on his porch was a baby. Quite a young one at that. As a crack of lighting hit, the baby started to cry.
It was wrapped in a series of pink blankets only to reveal its small face contorting with discomfort.
"Remus, what is it?" A very pregnant Lily Potter stood behind him as the baby in the basket answered her questions.
"...Remus... REMUS" Lily caught him out of his thoughts. Looking back to her it was clear he was distraught. James a small distance behind came closer to see.
"What do we do?" Remus asked to couple.
"We bring her inside," Lily spoke the obvious. "How do you know it's a she?" James said. Rolling her eyes Lily stormed through her home to the kitchen counter.
"Poor thing must be freezing" Lily whispered as the baby continued to cry. Lily picked up the baby in hopes of settling the crying. "Is there any note or letter?" Lily asked as she swaddled the child.
"There most certainly is" James quipped as he passed on the letter to Remus.
"Why are you giving it to me?" Remus finally spoke breaking his previous silence. On the front of the envelope in neat cursive read, Remus Lupin. Opening it carefully he read the print.
Take care of our Isabel for me...
Remus froze, jaw wide open in shock at the name written at the bottom.
"Oh, my Merlin... she's mine." He whispered. Both Lily and James looked up at the man exchanging looks. Remus slowly looked at the child who had calmed down. He took her into his arms staring at his supposed daughter.
"We'll help you through this" Lily says. "I guess little Harry has a best friend," James jokes. Holding his new daughter tightly he says the only thing that comes to mind...
"What the fuck."
