marlene shifted where she was laid across the sofa, one of her hands resting on harry’s back, memorising the way his chest rose and fell as he slept where he’d positioned himself after knackering himself out following her around on his toy broom for the past four hours, and then again after his bath and change into his pajama’s. her eyes were half-shut themselves, his limbs splayed out on hers and the sight of lily emerging from the kitchen with two cups of tea within her grasp spun a tired grin onto marlene’s face. “you’re an angel, lil.” her voice is hushed, but not by much - it seemed harry was as deep a sleeper as marlene was, and she squeezed him cautiously as his head laid on her shoulder. “i’ll be up in a min, promise. just five more minutes?” she pushed out her bottom lip at lily as she hovered above her, almost certain that she’d tell her that harry needed to be in bed, not atop a human mattress who was certainly very happy about the tiny boy she loved as her own strewn across her as she cradled him.

who: lily potter ( @silvcrsickle ) where: lily and james’ place. when: january 5th, 1982. 09:56. 

alice didn’t even realize she was smiling as she looked at the two boys playing on the carpet, though that often happened where neville was concerned. gently reaching over to give them back a block they had thrown away, she grinned at the two of them and kissed the top of neville’s head before going back over to the couch, where lily was sitting. truly, alice felt bad for the redhead. whilst the longbottoms had to go in hiding for a while, it was nowhere near as bad as what the potters had to go through, especially not now. with confirmation that voldemort wanted them dead, it was difficult for anyone in the order to want anything but lily, james and harry well hidden, and far away from danger. still, the blonde could see the restlessness in lily, and she understood it. she didn’t know what she’d do if she wasn’t able to go out and do something, even if it was for neville. it was why she made sure to visit lily as often as possible. alice said it was so that their boys could learn to interact with others their age, but mostly, it was so she could make sure the younger woman was still okay, and didn’t feel too cut out from the rest of the world. “i meant to bring in things to make mimosas, but halfway here i realized i had gotten apple juice instead of orange and forgotten the champagne, so... next time, yeah? anyway, how are you doing? you seem well.”
