Four years later.

I sat and stared out of James Potter's guest bedroom window and tears came to my eyes. My back was sore and my head throbbed. But I wasn't as bad as you. I had run away with you and knew I had done the right thing. But as soon as we had arrived you collapsed. I'm not allowed to see you until you wake up. I cuddle the stuffed lion you gave me on my tenth birthday (Charmed to be green and silver), you explained to mum and dad you got it because my name meant Lion heart. I sit in my favorite pajamas as well just waiting for you to wake. The ones I wore on my first night at Hogwarts. I also wore my slythiern green socks.

I pray and hope you do. You're all I have left and I love you. I feel the tears in my eyes un-shed but now shedding. I hear the door open and Mrs Potter comes in. "You can see him now Regulus," she smiles but it's a sad smile. I follow her numbly to the room you are in. I see you in your boxers beaten and bloody. You have a Muggle cast on your arm and bandages around your head and chest. I chock back a sob and search in your trunk. I soon find what I am looking for. I pull on your pajamas, the ones that look like mine but in Gryffindor, I also pull on your Gryffindor socks and tuck your stuffed dog under your arm.

I don't move form your side. Apart from the toilet. I don't eat or sleep. I just watch you holding you. Remus is comming over next week. He can't wait to see you. He doesn't know about what happened yet and no one can find the heart to tell him. Lily's comming over after that with Severus. Oh how I love Severus.

The door creaks open and James comes in with a bowl of water. "Mum said we need to change his bandages," he said and I nodded numbly. I washed you and changed your bandages while James looked on. Soon it was done. "He'll wake soon Regulus," he said laying a hand on my shoulder. "You'll see," and with that he was gone. It's been another two weeks and still nothing has changed. Remus stays in here with me and curls up on your side at night crying and howling like a wolf. But I can't comfort him. I don't know how. It's morning now and the wolf has finally fallen asleep. I'm looking out of the window when I hear coughing. I turn and see it's you. "MRS POTTER!" I yell. Soon me and Remus are kicked out of the room. He sits on the floor and cries while I pace the hall outside the door. The door soon opens and she is smiling. "He's awake," me and Remus run into the room to see you sitting up but looking pale and very weak. "Reggie," you crock. "REGGIE," you cry. I run over and pull you into a hug. "I'm here Siri," I said as I held you close. "It's OK," you soon stopped crying and fell back to sleep. I smiled as I watched you and turned to Remus. "Treat him well," I say before I leave.
