Flashback
Sirius was laughing, happiness that in a day would be quickly lost. He was with his two closest friends besides Remus, James and Peter. He was sitting with Rowena Black, his distant cousin, the only one who ever behaved as he did, another Black with real emotions and her husband Ryan Black. They weren't a modern couple. Instead of taking the man's last name, Ryan took Rowena's. There was only one more addition to their gathering. Rowena was holding their barely two day old daughter, Brielle.
Sirius stroked the baby's soft cheek. "She really is adorable. If she'd just open those darn eyes and look at me." He complained.
Brielle had been sleeping soundly the entire visit. Rowena smiled. "Yea, she's going to sleep all day and wake us up screaming all night. She's very vocal." Rowena said looking down at her sleeping daughter. She then looked back up at Sirius. "So have you considered what we asked you?"
Sirius looked at both Rowena's and Ryan's hopeful faces and then back down at Brielle's sleeping one. "Ok, I'll be Brielle's godfather but you two have to stick around until she's twenty five ok?" He said smiling.
Ryan shook his hand. "Deal."
A day later, Sirius was sitting in Azkaban for a crime he didn't commit, Brielle no longer a thought in his mind.
