For The Love Of The White Sheep

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. I don't want you to sue me. But since when have I ever gotten what I wanted?

Chapter 1: And You Let Her Do This Why?

"You are so much different than you're family! You'd better be...GRYFFINDOR!" and no one in the hall clapped. The boy walked over to the table on the farthest to the right and sat down in the silence. The professor then called all the rest of the names. Everyone politely clapped for every new first year, while still staring at Sirius. "I am the white sheep," he thought. "In a family of Black ones," he then snorted at his own joke. Everyone at the table looked at him as if he was crazy. Then a boy about a little taller than Sirius walked up to him.

"The name is James Potter," he said with a smirk. Potter had messy black hair and hazel eyes with this mischievous twinkle in them. He smirked so naturally that it made it look as if his face was made to smirk.

"Sirius Black," and they shook hands. Just then, dinner finished and the Gryffindor prefects, Reginald Golde and Amelia Bones, led them upstairs. It was such a long night that immediately after being shown around Gryffindor Tower he fell asleep, along with his roommates Remus Lupin, James Potter, and Peter Pettigrew. Sirius Black fell asleep not knowing that tomorrow morning would be terrible.

FTLOTWS

SIRIUS POV

We were eating breakfast the first day of my first year and I was excited. My excitement drained when I saw a howler charging dead at me. I opened the envelope and it exploded with sound.

"MY OWN SON IS A DISGRACE TO THE BLACK LINE! EVERY CHILD HAS BEEN IN SLYTHERIN AND HERE YOU ARE SITTING AT THE GRYFFINDOR TABLE! DON'T COME BACK HERE FOR CHRISTMAS! I'LL ONLY TAKE YOU IN DURING THE SUMMER UNTIL YOUR 17! YOU ARE NO SON OF MINE YOU BLOOD TRAITOR!" My mother's screaming died down and I stared at the envelope. I got up and walked out of the Great Hall knowing that everyone was staring at me. I was taught not to cry and to hide your emotions behind a mask. People will use your emotions as a weakness and will manipulate you and use you as they please. A tear slipped down my cheek. My first tear since I was a baby. I let it fall onto the ground, making a soft sound that was almost unnoticeable unless you were looking for it. I let another one fall. I was weak! I would be manipulated and tortured. It was the cold hard truth. And the fact was that I just had to live with it.

FIVE YEARS LATER SIRIUS POV

"Get your lazy ass up," said James. He was hitting me with a pillow and roaring with laughter.

"I'm up, I'm up," I repeat over and over, and then grab my pillow and start hitting James who is unsuspecting. There was an all out pillow fight and now no pillow safe in the dorm. James and I finished getting ready and finally we walked down to breakfast. Remus met us in the Common Room and only Merlin knew where Peter was. We walked down to breakfast when James saw Lily and ran off. When is she going to learn that she really likes him? Only Merlin knows when. We went in and quickly sat down, breakfast was almost over. The students and teachers were almost all gone. Remus and I grabbed a few slices of toast for James and we walked out. That was when I saw that my mother was in the Entrance Hall, I wonder what I did this...oh crap! There she was standing, and I was scared.

"How dare you pull a prank on my son!" She was screeching at this point. She slapped me and her nails drew blood. I fell to the ground, and shakingly stood back up. I didn't fight back because who knew what she'd do.

"One more prank on your brother and you're not allowed to come back home you Blood Traitor," and she left. I was still holding onto my cheek as I ran out of the Entrance Hall. I ran all the way to the Quidditch Pitch and was sitting there, on the bleachers just watching the sky and massaging my face. Just then, Remus showed up.

REMUS POV

Professor McGonagall and I were standing in shock at what just happened. Not only did Sirius just get hurt, but he didn't fight back!

"Mr. Lupin I would kindly ask you to go find Mr. Black and make sure he is okay. You two are excused from today's classes." and she walked away leaving me to find Sirius. Sirius was not an emotional person. He had the worst family ever, I just didn't know that they were this bad, and I don't think that he wanted us to know that they were this bad. I sniffed Sirius' blood and followed the scent to the Quidditch Pitch. Scenting was the easiest way of finding him since the full moon was only a few days away. There he was, sitting on the bleachers rubbing his face. He was only smearing the blood. Sirius was also crying, which none of us had seen him do. As I said before, he was not an emotional person. I walked over to him and spelled his face clean. I cleaned out the cut with a quick Scourgify and healed it. Sirius still had tears rolling down his cheeks. What was I supposed to do? Give him a hug and a kiss and make him feel all better? Or sing him a lullaby? Oh, for Merlin's sake this is ridiculous!

"Sirius," he looked at me with pain in his eyes that couldn't be masked. It was indescribable. He kept staring at the sky, when would he stop doing that?

"Has it happened before?" and I knew that wasn't the best question to ask. He nodded. I then summoned Sirius' broom and handed it to him. He looked at me questioningly.

"Take it for a ride, it'll make you feel better," I said soothingly and he grabbed the broom and mounted quickly. I summoned my book and read for an hour until Sirius was ready to go inside. He left me in the Entrance Hall and took the main stairs up, running them up three at a time. I'm sure he took the main stairs up and then cut through the Charm's corridor, then went through the library and went up the lonely way. Almost no one goes that way, except the Marauders that is! I shook my head and went to the kitchens to get a snack, and I'll grab one for Sirius too. Let's just hope he's okay...
