DISCLAIMER: I don't own Harry Potter or "Hello" by Evanescence. I was inspired to make yet another memento to Sirius. I listened to this song after finishing the book. Harry is reflecting through the fic about the death of his godfather.

Hello

Playground school bell rings again

rain clouds come to play again

Harry Potter sat on the express on his way back to Kings Cross. Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Luna, and Neville were silent. It's my entire fault. He thought if I weren't so stubborn he would still be here. Sirius' face still looked at him pale and gaunt.

Has no one told you she's not breathing?

Hello I am your mind giving you someone to talk to

Remus Lupin holding him back his voice still echoed in his ears. There's nothing you can do Harry he's gone.

Hello

Now there was nothing, no more praying for his innocence. Thoughts of his third year filled his brain. If he was proven innocent I could have gone to live with him. No more Dursley's, but there's not even that.

If I smile and don't believe

soon I know I'll wake from this dream

Shouting at Professor Dumbldore. The Professor's reply. Everything came rushing on him like a ton of bricks.

Don't try to fix me I'm not broken

hello I am the lie living for you so you can hide

That was how Sirius would have wanted to die. A hero's death. His last words echoed in Harry's brain: Is that the best you've got? Always persistent to the end. And Bellatrix, oh how he wanted to destroy her. Tears swelled in his green eyes

Don't cry

He wished that this were all a bad dream. He knew he wouldn't wake up; there was too much pain. First his parents, then Sirius the closest thing he had to a parent.

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping

hello I'm still here

all that's left of yesterday

The train stopped and he wiped the tears away. He wished he could dispose of the pain as easily. But it wasn't that simple. He saw Lupin, Moody and Tonks waiting. Harry walked to them.
