Chapter 77. Trust Betrayed.

 Lily had gone back with James to her parents’ home a few days after their deaths, to retrieve a few things. She had found upon entering that the record player and records were now gone. Lily felt sick at heart, she was sure her sister made good on her threat and had gotten rid of her things. Lily had walked upstairs with James to her parents’ bedroom; it was of course as empty as the rest of the house. Lily walked over to a section of the wooden floor where the wood looked as though it had been scratched up by a heavy object. Lily used her wand to open the piece of floorboard up, inside was a large shoebox. Lily smiled relieved to see it was still safely hidden there. Lily pulled it out to look inside to see that it was still filled with letters and many pictures of her son Severus Evans.

Lily stood to see her husband holding her other son. Lily smiled at them both in the hopes that one day she would be able to tell her son all about his older brother.

They both left, neither having a desire to stay in a home that seemed to be crying in pain.

It had now been several months since the deaths of their parents; Lily was feeling horrible still, but with James loving support and her son she was making it through. Lily was looking forward to celebrating Harry’s first birthday; it was coming up soon just a few months away now.

The two young adults were cuddle up on their couch sleeping. Harry was sleeping soundly in his crib.

A knock on the door alerted them both quickly as they jumped up looking around the place to make sure no one had entered who should not have.

“Go to Harry, I’ll get the door.” James told Lily she ran to the bedroom where Harry was still sleeping soundly.

Lily could hear James at the door.

“Hello?” James said softly.

“Hello James, this is Albus Dumbledore.” A pleasant voice said to him.

“Really and you like what….. Candy?” James asked suspiciously, he knew that Dumbledore had told him and Lily what to ask and never to let anyone in who did not give that specific answer.

“Lemon drops, a Muggle sweets.” Dumbledore’s prompt answer came.

James unlocked the door allowing Dumbledore inside.

“Hello Professor, sorry to make you wait but you can never be too sure these days.” James said.

“At last it is a shame, but we all must be very careful.” Dumbledore looked at him over his half-moon spectacles.

“I am afraid; we shall have to find better housing for the two of you.”

“What? Why what’s wrong with it here?” James asked as he walked over to the couch. James waved for Dumbledore to sit down.

“On the whole this is a fine place, on the other hand you two are in grave danger here.” Dumbledore said softly. “It seems that Voldermort has gotten information on where you two are now, and since as you know he is hunting for you three, it is best to get you to a new home.”

James looked sick with the thought. “I can’t believe this, we’ll move but where?”

“I happen to know of a very nice home in Godric Hallow that is available to buy.”

Dumbledore had already talked about Voldermort hunting for them, but so far it had seemed they were safe where they were. Now he had information the traitor friend of theirs had given Voldermort the information on where they were living now.

James groaned to himself, they had continued to say it was a friend of theirs that was the traitor, but James could not believe it, his friends would die first before betraying them.
