Hello and welcome to my newest FanFiction story. I am Alyss Carter. This is my first Harry Potter fic, so it might not be the greatest. I hope you like it! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own the seriesChapter One: Prologue
To any normal person, he looked just the part of an expectant father, nervous and excited. After all, his wife was in labor just beyond the door.
But that was not at all the reason why he was wringing his hands. Oh, no, not at all. You see, this man in question had a secret, a big one, one that could endanger all those he loved. The only person in the world who knew laid just beyond that inch of wood, having a baby, his baby. The only other person who knew was dead, thankfully.
"Mr. Hart," a female nurse said, "You may come in now."
The man, presumably Mr. Hart, stood up and brushed off his dress coat. He stood up slightly straighter and walked through the doorway.
A woman dressed in hospital garb lay in a bed at the far corner, drenched in sweat but smiling. In her arms slept a small baby girl.
"You were wrong, Frank." The woman said, teasing her husband. "It's not a boy."
"I can see that, Amanda." He replied. "Unfortunately, that means we can't name her after me."
His wife whacked him lightly on the shoulder, careful not to disturb the baby in her arms. "We were never going to name the baby after you! You know full well what we were going to call the baby."
"So Jessamyn it is?"
"Yes. Jessamyn Hart."
Mr. Hart gazed adoringly at his newborn baby girl. "Do you hear that, baby? Do you know your name?" The baby opened her blue eyes to stare up at her father. She gave a yawn and her eyes closed once again.
"Frank, can you put Jessamyn in her crib? It's right over there."
Mr. Hart obliged and then walked back over to the bed. "She's a beauty."
"That she is." Mrs. Hart replied, glancing fondly towards the direction of the crib. "She'll be stealing hearts in no time."
"You can bet on that." Then he turned towards more serious matters. "Will we tell her?"
His wife sighed. "I don't know, Frank. I honestly don't know."
"It would be dangerous either way. Maybe less dangerous if she knows."
"I don't want her to get hurt! She'll grow up an outcast if people know!"
"She doesn't have to tell anyone."
"We're not letting our baby girl get mixed up in this crazy world we live in. I don't care what you say, we are not." Mrs. Hart's tine implied that the conversation was over. Mr. Hart sighed and walked towards Jessamyn's crib.
"I'm sorry, baby. Sorry of what you must endure." Mr. Hart whispered to the sleeping form. "Amanda realizes it; she's just too stubborn to admit it. I wish I could just keep the whole world away from you, but I can't, and I'm sorry. So sorry."
Confusing, huh? I know. All will be revealed in the next chapter. Or, at least, some of it will. And yes, all of your favorite Harry Potter characters will be in this Fic. Keep reading and please review. Flames welcome so long as you don't raise your voice or swear. Thank you for your time.
Love,
