Overcome- A Remus and Sirius Fan Fiction!
Post OOTP- Here is a few creative licences I took. Sirius doesn't die or fall through the veil and Peter is identified so Sirius's innocence was proven.
Chapter 1 Homecomings
Harry walked into Grimmauld Place happier than he had been in along time, sure Voldemort has out there and the ongoing battle between the Death Eaters and the Order was still going but he had a family now, a real one with his Godfather.
Sirius had been officially pardoned and offered an apology from the Ministry now they had acknowledged Volemort was back! He was a free man and Harry had come straight to number 12 when school had ended. Harry left his trunk in the hallway and went in hunt of his godfather, deciding to check the kitchen first.
Harry walked into the kitchen to almost stumble back in shock, as he was welcomed with streamers flying everywhere, a chorus's of "Surprise" and a kitchen full of well wishes. Sirius was grinning proudly at the front with Remus, Tonks, Moody, Hagrid and the Weasley's filling the remainder of the kitchen. Sirius strutted forward, smiling and looking much more like the handsome, confident youth Harry had seen in pictures along time ago, he pulled Harry close, kissed him on both cheeks and wrapped him in an ennmourus bear hug. Harry while shocked returned the hug with all his strength, barely hearing Sirius mutter quietly "Welcome home Harry" Harry's eyes started to water but was saved speaking as the rest of the party all rushed forwarding wanting to hug and talk to Harry. That night Harry had the best night of his young life, he drank a little bit too much fire whiskey that Sirius gave him, he danced with Ginny then Tonks and played games, laughed and enjoyed himself. Molly had cooked enough food for an army which her son's demolished as the night went on and before long people started to leave for the night.
Harry stood next to Sirius and saw everyone home through the floo network or out to the street to apparitate thanking them all sincerely, until just Remus remained. Remus turned to Harry smiling happier than he had ever seen his old professor look, which made him look much years younger and like Sirius much more similar to the younger versions Harry had in his album.
"Goodnight Harry" he smiled, Harry rushed forward throwing his arms around Remus's neck hugging him tightly before stepping back a little embarrassed.
"Goodnight Professor" A deep almost guttural chuckle answered Harry and looking up at Remus, he spoke
" I am no longer your Professor Harry, so please call me Remus or whatever you want. Rem, Remy, Moony, you use to call me Moon as a small child whatever makes you comfortable"
Harry nodded and watched Remus step into the fireplace and speak French declaring his destination as "maison de lupin"
Sirius turned to Harry excitedly exclaiming
"Would you like to see your room Harry?" Harry nodded again not trusting his voice and until laughter broke out of him as he raced after his godfather in dog form as he bonded up the stairs barking loudly.
Harry rushed up the two flights of stairs, around the corner and to the end of the hallway before stumbling into Sirius as he ran into the bedroom. The room itself was painted a warm neutral cream almost beige colour; the room was large with wooden floorboards covered in parts by thick rugs of colours of gold and browns with a door leading into a comfortable ensuite at the back. A large four-poster bed sat to one side with red curtains around it. He had a large wardrobe, beside tables, a dresser with a mirror in a rich wooden and gold frame and on the other side he noticed a large bookshelf, an arm chair in a light brown with a throw blanket that look exactly like one of Molly Weasley's knitted creations and coffee table then desk with a bird cage on a tall stand for Hegrid. All around the room as Harry walked he noticed more, the warm colours, the personal effects like his school books all on the bookshelf, personalised parchment with his name and above the desk a collection of muggle and wizarding photos of him and his friends. A few posters hung on the walls, one of Harry's favourite Quiddick team and a few still muggle posters of his favourite bands. On the dresser under the mirror he found one of the Sirius, Remus, James and Lily, one of James and Lily dancing at their wedding next to one of James and Lily with a 1-year-old looking Harry. Harry turned to face Sirius, who was watching him cautiously,
"You like it?" He asked, "Remus and I worked for days to get the room looking decent, it was my old room" Sirius explained
"Its amazing thank you" Harry quietly sobbed until Sirius pulled in flat against his chest and Harry cried openly holding the front of Sirius's robes tightly.
Harry sniffed loudly and laughed with embarrassment he looked at Sirius noticing he was wiping his eyes as well.
"Goodnight Harry I will be just at the other end near the stairs in what was my parent's room oh and we had trunk brought up its at the end of your bed"
Sirius left leaving Harry to slowly unpack his trunk and walk about his new room. Once half unpacked Harry showered in his new en suite and climbed into his new large bed, before sleep overcame him he thought to himself that he would do whatever he could to repay and thank his godfather for this. He had saved him from the Dursely's, giving him a family and a connection his parents, giving him a home in the wizarding world and Harry knew he would do anything to repay his love and kindness.
