You could help but smile at the news that you had for your fiancé. As soon as Lily and James had Harry, Sirius kept leaving little hints about wanting to be a father, and he had become like a second father for the little boy, so much so that Lily made constant jokes about James and Sirius running away together to raise her son.

It had always been clear that Sirius was hesitant about starting a family. He was scared he couldn't be a good parent as he didn't have a role model to follow but after seeing James with Harry, you knew he was finally finding a role model, and it was surprising as you were never one to claim that James was a role model for anything.

Since Harry had been born, you and Sirius had taken over the Potter's spare room, with Remus taking claim to the sofa. You claimed to be there to help, but really you just wanted to see you godson.

Instantly you made your way up to your shared bedroom with Sirius, to find him talking to Remus about something.

"Hello love," the shorter of the two smiled gesturing for you to join him in sitting on the edge of the bed.

You did as you were told, letting him wrap an arm around your shoulders, resting your head against him.

"What are you two nattering away about?" You questioned.

"Full moon is coming up," Sirius stated, looking pitifully up at his friend whom was stood in front of him.

"I'm sorry Moony," you sighed.

You felt bad for him, but there wasn't anything you could do to stop it, only making sure you were ready with his favourite jumpers and chocolate the day after.

"It's fine. I'll leave you two. I'm going to go make some tea, did you want any?" Remus smiled softly.

"Please. We'll be down in a second. I just need to tell Sirius something," you said warmly.

He nodded leaving the pair of you alone in your room.

"What did you need to tell me?" Sirius questioned. "Not stealing my godson and running away with Lily are you?"

Sirius chuckled as he pulled you both back on the bed, wrapping his arms around you, holding you close against the mattress.

"You caught me. I was just coming to get my bags so that I could go Mother my best friend's child with her," you stated rolling your eyes.

He shook his head, kissing your cheek. "You'd never run away with her. You love me too much."

It was true you did love him dearly. But sometimes running off with Lily and raising Harry together did sound more appealing, especially when Sirius and James were acting like prats.

"I definitely have more of a reason to stay now. I wouldn't want to take your unborn child away from you under any circumstance," you said softly.

He furrowed his eyebrows at you, not quite certain if he heard you correctly.

"Wait... are you? Are you really?" He said trying to hide his growing smile.

You nodded.

Instantly he jumped to his feet, pulling you up with him. He lifted you into his arms, pressing his lips passionately to yours. It took you by surprise at first but you were just glad that he was happy.

"We're having a baby," he grinned. "I can't believe it. I'm going to be a father. And our child is going to have the best Mother in the world, and will grow up best friends with Harry."

You laughed at his excitement, but nevertheless you couldn't wait until you were a family.
