Harry ran to answer it but his uncle beat him to it. At the door was Sirius

"Who are you?"

Mr Dursley asked suspiciously, eyeing the rugged man on his doorstep

"I'm Harry's godfather, Sirius black" Sirius gave a weak smile as Mr Dursley cowered back.

"Your-your the murderer"

He stammered Sirius grimaced

"Please don't call me that I didn't come to murder you either I came for Harry" Vernon grabbed Harry from behind him and pushed him at Sirius

"Here take him! Just don't hurt my family!" Vernon slammed the door behind them and Harry could hear him locking it.

"Come on Harry lets go" Sirius turned back to the street "but my stuff!' Harry called after him

Sirius pulled out his wand and aimed it at Harry's bedroom window "WINGARIAM LEVIOSA!" he yelled and

Harry trunk came flying out the window. Sirius directed into the boot of a parked car on the street

"Where did you get this car?" Harry asked. He thought the would be travelling by magic "why don't we use a port key or something?" Sirius pushed him into the front seat of the car and then gets into the drivers seat

"Because I didn't want to scare to muggles more than I had to" Sirius grinned and started

The car. It purred to life and Sirius directed it slowly down the street. Once they were a few blocks

Away Sirius started to go faster

"I didn't know you could drive!" Harry said as Sirius continued to

Pick up speed

"Oh sure Harry! I and your father got our muggle license when we were 16!" Sirius called

Over the noise of the car. Once they were outside London Sirius stopped the car.

"What are you doing?"

Harry asked, staring at Sirius as he got a map out of him pocket "well I'll be very busy while

Your staying with me so I thought we could pick up Hermione to keep you company in that old house of

Mine" he put the map away again and continued down along the road "what about Ron?" Harry did not want

To leave his red headed friend out of this "what about Ron? He already has a huge family to keep him

Happy and his house is much too far away for this old thing" Sirius patted the dashboard of the car.

They drove for almost five hours before Sirius decided to stop. When he did, it was outside a pretty

Little neighbourhood home in a small town called Austinville "well I think this is Hermione's house"

Sirius muttered, getting out of the car, Harry followed suit. Sirius knocked once on the door and Mrs

Granger answered "your must be Sirius and Harry!" she smiled and welcomed them into her clean and tidy

Home "Hermione told me alot about you" Harry and Sirius followed Mrs Granger into the kitchen where Mr

Granger was reading the paper, when he saw them he got up and, smiling warmly, shook Sirius' hand

"Nice to meet you boys!" Mr Granger then shook Harry's hand "sweety?" he called to his wife "make Sirius

Some coffee! He's been travelling all day! Oh and Harry Hermione is out back with a friend of hers why don't

You go get her so she can get ready to leave" Mr Granger gave Sirius a seat and his wife brought three

Mugs of coffee. Harry went out back to see Hermione sitting with a pretty girl. Both were at a big

Table located under a shady tree "HARRY!" Hermione screamed when she saw him. She jumped up and flung her

Arms around his neck "so good to see you Harry! Oh this is Sarah" hemi one added. Sarah looked Harry up

In addition, down "he is handsome, just like you said mione" both Harry and Hermione blushed. "Ah Hermione..."

Harry said after an awkward silence "I hate to break you up but we have to get going..." "Oh right!"

Hermione answered then turned back to Sarah who was watching Harry curiously "well bye Sarah..." Hermione

Hugged her friend "yea bye Mione. Bye Harry" Sarah smiled at Harry then jumped the fence into the next

Yard "see you next year!" they heard her call before she entered her own house. Harry and Hermione went

Back inside Hermione's house to find Sirius waiting for them. He greeted hemi one and then thanked her

Parents for the coffee. "Ok everyone in the car!" Sirius called happily, picking up Hermione's trunk and

Taking it to the car. Hermione farewelled her parents and got in the backseat of the car next to Harry.

Sirius turned the key and the car roared to life. Harry watched Hermione wave to her parents as they

Disappeared into the distance. Harry thought she looked very pretty with her hair up in a messy ponytail

In addition, jeans. He hardly ever saw her in jeans and commented her on them "I like your jeans Hermione" he said,

Blushing "oh yes thank you Harry!" she replied, absentmindedly stroking the fluffy crookshanks in her lap

"Hey where is hedwig?" she asked

"oh" Harry smiled at her

"she wasn't home this morning so I guess she will

Meet us at Grimmauld place"

"that's right Harry" Sirius, said, turning off the highway and onto a lane that

Led out of Austinville and onto a quiet road that led north-west of the town "hedwig is already at my house

Therefore, no need to worry but you might want to get some rest we will not arrive for another three hours and I still

Have to pick up tonks on the way". The trio were quiet for an hour then Harry and Hermione slowly drifted

Off to sleep.

Harry woke another hour later to find Hermione asleep on his lap. He smiled and looked out the window.

The car was parked outside a rough looking house in a shabby looking town. Harry jumped when he relised that

Sirius was no longer in the car but up on the front stoop of the house, talking to a girl with straight

Blonde hair and green eyes. "Hermione wake up!" Hermione woke with a start and looked out the window. Harry

Was surprised to see her smile "hi tonks!" she called out the window. The blonde-haired person looked up and waved. Sirius

Grabbed a bag out of the doorway and both came back to the car "wotcher Harry, Hermione" "hi tonks" Harry

And Hermione said at the same time "ok lets move" Sirius started the car again "we're nearly there" he put

The car in first gear and took off down the street, changing into higher gears quickly, Sirius sailed out of

Town and back into the country. Tonks and Sirius chatted about the order of the phoenix and Harry and Hermione

Listened intently but they did not hear anything new "here we are!" Sirius said, pulling up outside Grimmauld

Place and getting out of the car. It was dark by now and Harry could only just see the house "it's good to be

Back" he whispered to himself.
