saturday mornings within the potter’s home in godric’s hallow were chaotic. period. that’s all you need to know.

it was probably eight in the morning and the entire group was already present as they always were.

mary, lily, and yourself were all situated in the kitchen, mary dancing around to nonexistent music as she made homemade toast from lily’s muggle cookbook. you and lily were stood at the counter, cups of tea in hand.

james, remus, and the others were in the living room through the doorway, and based on the amused laughter and smile-filled voices that could be heard from down the hall, it seemed that there was a certain little harry keeping them entertained.

you and lily were chatting idly as mary hummed to herself, golden light shining through the windows and completely illuminating the room even without the lights on. lily slammed her cup against the counter top, jumping with a realization.

“i completely forgot to tell you!” she exclaimed, a mixture of amusement and exasperation playing across her features. she leaned across the counter toward you, as if about to tell a secret. her voice dropped to a whisper. “guess who decided to get james the second over there a b-r-o-o-m the other day?” she nodded toward the living room, and mary chuckled at the look on lily’s face.

“i’m sure you’re just thrilled to have multiple toddler-caused holes in your roof at some point in the near future, aren’t you, lils?” she teased.
