This is chilling for me, but on a different level. It's chilling 
because The Potters deaths could have been prevented in some way.  
If only Sirius had gotten there early or if only they found out who 
the spy was.  And it hurts me as much as it hurts Sirius to know 
that he did, in a way, cause their deaths.  And to think of how they 
all could be living happily now if it weren't for Peter.  Anyhow 
here goes (it's a paragraph):

PoA US Paperback P. 365
"Harry...I as good as killed them," he croaked.  "I persuaded Lily 
and James to change to Peter at the last moment, persuaded them to 
use him as Secret-Keeper instead of me.... I'm to blame, I know 
it.... The night they died, I'd arranged to check on Peter, make 
sure he was still safe, bu when I arrived at his hiding place, he'd 
gone.  Yet there was no sign of a struggle.  It didn't feel right.  
I was scared.  I set out for your parents' house straight away.  And 
when I saw their house, destroyed, and their bodies...I realized 
what Peter must've done...what I'd done...."


Greicy, who is teary-eyed and just realized that she hates Peter the 
most out of them all
