"ELVENDORK!"
"Thats ones Unisex, Lilyflower."
"Mike."
"Carl."
"Sirius Jr!"
"No."
Lily held her baby boy. It was already two weeks old and they didn't have a name. Remus and Sirius were helping choose, Peter would be too but he said he had 'business' to take care of. Sirius and Remus thought he had a secret girlfriend. James laughed at this, Peter and girls didn't go together. James and Lily had been in hiding for four months because of a prophecy made about their child.
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.
Lily didn't like to think about it too much. Sirius is a very loyal secret-keeper and none of that stuff would happen. Right now they needed a name. Remus and Sirius were recruited for another mission, Death Eaters were terrorizing Diagon Alley again. Sirius hopped onto his motorcycle and (even though he hated flying) Remus sat on the back of it.
James sat down with his son now. His joking feeling was much more concealed now. He couldn't crack jokes right now, now that his family was in danger.
"James, dinner is done."
James walked into the wonderfully smelling kitchen. "It smells ga-rate!"
"I muggle cooked it with my mothers recipe."
"I still don't understand why you muggle cook it when you can just wave your wand."
"And you never will, will you?" Lily said, rolling her eyes.
James sat down to feed the baby, one of Lily favorite thing to do was watch James feed him. Or at least James' little talks when burped and didn't say excuse me.
"You're not holding his head again James, hold his head." Lily said gently, fixing his arms.
"Oh, yeah." James said, nodding. He took the bottle and held it to the baby.
"James, keep the bottle up."
"Oh yeah."
Lily giggled. James was still new to this whole thing. Lily used to baby sit her baby cousin in summer and she also went to summer school for her muggle schooling which had a class that taught child care.
After James was done feeding him, Lily started to burp him. Once he did burp, James started the lecture but was interypted by baby crying.
"Aww Baby, I was just kidding." James said, softly. Baby cried louder. "Here, Lil, let me see him."
James took him and after only a few seconds the baby stopped, and was holding his knuckles.
"Now, you wanna tell me why you were crying?" James asked, rhetorically.
"Ha-Hairwee..."
Lily looked amazed. "James that was his first words! He wasn't supposed to say them until a year from now I thought!"
"Well, Magical children devolpe faster. How do you think we get all our muggle schooling done in our first eleven years?"
"But, why'd he say hairy?"
They both looked down at the baby who was holding his father's hairy knuckles.
"Harwee Powter!"
"Sirius' been trying to teach him Potter but how he knew how to say--" James started.
"Harry Potter...Lily that can be his name!"
"And name him after your knuckles? Do you know--"
"No, I mean H-A-R-R-Y not H-A-I-R-E-E."
"James that's not how you spell hair..."
"Like I said I only had eleven years to learn all four subjects, anyways I gotta tell Sirius and Remus about Harry!"
