Title: Don't Leave Me Like This

Chapter Two: The House of Black

Sirius Black ran around Grimmauld place going on and on about how he had to look perfect. He had to look civilized he had to look like the Black that he was. Peter Pettigrew had been taken into custody and put under Veritaserum where he admitted to the death of the 13 muggles as well as the selling out of the Potters. Thus clearing Sirius' name completely and now the Ministry asked for Sirius' appearance to decide what to do with the escapee. Sirius was nervous and not evens his lasting friend Remus or Harry could help him. Silently Sirius was a wreck.

"Sirius Black you need to calm down and do something with your hair, honestly your mother would magic you seven ways wrong if she saw your hair like that" Molly Weasley said shaking her head in dismay. She knew the man was far too nervous and excited to even care about his hair. She got her wand out and pointed it at Sirius snipping and straightening it and making it look much as it did before Azkaban. Sirius once again looked like a pure blood wizard he was. He had on dark dress robes that were a beautiful velvet maroon and black.. He honestly looked like the handsome young man that was almost lost to all of them.

"Sirius my lad, you look like a million Galleons," Albus said entering the kitchen where Molly was busy making all the last cuts on Sirius hair and assuring his face was clear of any scraggly hair in form of a beard she just removed.

"Albus!" Sirius boomed and hugged the older wizard. "Thank you for believing in me Albus, thank all of you. On a serious note, who will bestaying with the children while we go to the ministry?" Sirius said suddenly realizing his godson could not come, including Granger and Weasley children. The majority of the order was attending the hearing with Sirius except for members that were busy on missions or could not make it.

"Severus and the young Malfoy are coming to stay with the children." Albus said his eyes twinkling at Sirius as the man started choking and coughing. Albus had expected a ,uch less entertaining reacting.

"No way is that that traitor and a Death Eaters son going to watch my godson!" Sirius barked out between his fit on coughing. "The traitor is one thing, but Draco Malfoy? Have you really lost your mind!" Sirius finished and sat down waiting for a response. Molly didn't know what to say, one point she agreed with Sirius on a completely different point though she trust Albus decisions. So she decided to stay out of it.

"I'm going to check on the boys it's been too quiet up there." She said quickly making an exit. She decided she would floo the twins and see if they could escort Ron and Ginny to Diagon and Hermione if she wanted. Harry though, was stuck indoors.

Remus looked at Sirius from across the table and smiled a tired smile. He had just went through a full moon and he was exhausted. Snapes potions helped him keep his mind, but he was still exhausted. Remus was beyond happy for Sirius and Harry though. The two of them were finally going to be able to be together. If Sirius were cleared of everything including his escape then he would be able to show his face in the Wizard world and honestly be able to live again. Remus knew the hiding was breaking him so badly that this trial was a godsend.

"Siri I'm sure Albus wouldn't knowly place Harry in any danger" Remus tried calming his best friend.

"Oh and what of the Philosophers Stone, the Basilisk, that stupid, stupid, stupid Wizard tournament, and the Dementors!? What about those Remus? Oh lets not forget about Harry and his friends in the ministry last year, what of that Remus? What of all those things? Surely Albus can not deny he does not have control of the people in his life!"

Sirius boomed and glared at Remus angrily that the man would take Dumbledore's side.

Remus flinched at Sirius harsh words but remain quiet. He simply rested his head on the table. He did not mean to offend Sirius in the least.

"Now now Sirius none of those things I could help. Harry acted entirely on his own. You can only trust me my boy, that neither Harry nor his friends will be in any danger while Mr. Malfoy and Severus are here. Would you like a Lemon Drop Sirius?" Albus said quite seriously. When neither adult responded he shrugged and continued, "Well in that case Nymphadora will be coming to get us, Arthur will meet us there as will the others. Also we will be leaving in 15 minutes. I suspect the two of you can keep the peace till then.?" With that Albus left the kitchen.

Sirius sat there his arms crossed over his chest his nose pointed upward and his legs straight out. If not for some of the wrinkles and a few scars, he mirrored his Hogwarts self perfectly. Remus smiled at the thought he couldn't help it. Sirius really was a pure blood at heart. He may preach how the lot was all bad news, he still was his mother's son a perfect pure blood with all the proper and polite etiquette.

"That man is insane." Sirius said realizing he was being watched.

"You shouldn't talk about yourself like that pure blood" An icy voice shot from the kitchen entrance. "I and Young Malfoy have come to watch your pesky brat of a godson"

"You shut your mouth you traitor!" Sirius screamed and jumped out of his seat.

"I wouldn't be so nasty Sirius, I can unleash Draco on your godson and I think you know just how deadly that could be."

Remus picked his head up at this point with his eyebrow perked up. What exactly did Severus mean by that. Almost as if by cue two twin red heads walked into the entrance of Grimmauld with shouts and whistles.

"AY AY AY Harry!" Fred shouted and then he and George stopped when they saw Draco Malfoy. Draco looked sickly and on edge and not pleased to be there.

"Oh it's Draco Malfoy, I see." George said. He and Fred shared a smirk and they ran towards the blonde grabbing on to him and hanging him on the cloak rack.

"There you are Draco no harm will come to any of us now." Fred said laughing with his twin. Draco didn't struggle or anything the teen really was a mess from the creature within.

The group of leaving adults gathered around the entrance; all ignoring Draco including Severus. When Tonks showed up to retrieve the members she looked at the cloak rack and smiled and took Draco down inspecting him carefully. Her smile widened as Draco looked past her entirely hugging himself. He was hot and cold all at the same time. The navigation potion was working but, he didn't need the potion the potion at all he knew where his mate was. The Veela inside was torn between screaming at him and seeking out its mate and bonding immediately.

"Do you know who I am Draco Malfoy?" Tonks asked having to look up to the Malfoy. Draco shook his head negatively he had never saw the crazy fuscia haired witch in his life.

"I know you! I'm your cousin. Nymphadora Black Tonks. You're grandmother does not approve of my family or me and removed your aunt and I from the black family tree. You know Sirius is related to you as well. We know all about the Black and Malfoy lineage even if we aren't considered family. In fact so does Molly Weasley did you know she is also related to you young Malfoy. No? I suppose not. Your mother and father never did understand the importance of actual family. They cared only for the blood that was created from it. Don't worry my cousin all secrets are safe among family."

Tonks said and smiled with a wink since she had created a crowd. "Fred George if I find out either of you hurt Draco Malfoy again you won't be having such humor on your faces. Now the two of you make sure Harry, Ron, Ginny and Hermione do not pester him or jinx him. Understand?" Tonks said running a hand through her hair and smiled as the twins nodded to her. "Good".

Albus appeared amongst the adults along with Harry. It seemed as though Albus was talking with Harry before Tonks had come to pick the adults up. Harry walked over to Sirius and Remus and gave both men a hug that he wished would last a lifetime. He walked back to where Severus was and then he spotted Draco Malfoy who was staring at him intently.

"What is he doing here?" Harry said not looking away from Draco pointing a menacing finger in his direction.

"I'm Draco's godfather I thought some time together would be nice." Severus replied simply and then the adults said their goodbyes and left Grimmauld place with warning to everyone, anybody ended up fighting they would answer to Molly and Tonks.

Draco and Harry were seated in the kitchen across from each other watching each other. Draco was basking in the warmth of the kitchen and the fact he finally not in any more pain. Draco rested his head on the table and smiled a little. It was so comforting, but he still to fought it. Draco purred a little and hugging himself, he felt so warm and safe he didn't want it to go away for anything. Draco knew he was a Veela but still if he could just resist the urges perhaps he could separate the two.

Harry watched Draco and blinking in surprise. Draco hadn't said one word to him. Didn't mention anything he only sat there and rested. Harry had to admit he was a little concerned. The blonde was defiantly not doing well and Harry could just see it in the way he acted. Harry looked at Draco and set his arms on the table waiting for the blonde to say something.

"So Draco… how is your summer?" Harry asked cautiously not wanting to offend the sick blonde in front of him.

"What's it to you Potter?" Draco spat his eyes hitting Harry when he moved his head to see Harry.

"It was only a question Malfoy" Harry glared at Draco.

Severus watched the two from the kitchen entrance, apparently Fred and George came to pick up the rest of the kids to take them to Diagon Ally for some shopping. This left Severus with Harry and Draco though Severus didn't mind so much the less children the better. The numbing potion still seemed to have an effect on Draco because the boy was not experiencing his inheritance symptoms at all. Still the navigation potion should set in by now and the boy wasn't having any signs of it working. Severus put the facts aside. He then Accio'd his bag and took out a large container and several empty jars.

"Mr. Potter you are to remove the eyes and the toes of these frogs and put them in proper containers. And Mr. Potter do be careful some may still be alive."

"Draco I didn't get to give you your birthday present but here you are I want you to read it and write a 24 inch scroll on it." Severus pulled out the Veela book but magic the cover into a different title. He figured keep them busy there would be no fighting.

Harry groaned and glared at the frogs in the case as he heard a distinct ribbit coming up to him. He hated having time with Snape always some tedious task that made him want to throw up. This time he had to cut eyes and legs though…and perhaps kill one or two. Harry didn't feel like fighting already after all Draco had simply took the book and agreed. The book could take Draco a week the frogs a day. Both boys set off to there tasks with out much complaint leaving a stunned Severus to sit there watching them.

Lucius was lead to the Dark Lords throne room. Lucius bowed at his feet as the dark lord sent other death eaters away. Lucius cringed inwardly but kept all his wards up. He would not let on to Draco's secret not for anything.

"Lucius my pet I have been hearing rumors of you" the dark lord said watching Lucius bow to his feet and stay there on the floor where he belonged.

Lucius mind automatically started folding in on itself what it could be whom could it be he began to get nervous. He felt the dark lord pushing in on his mind and he quickly flashed memories up that he thought appropriate wanting not to be discovered. It seemed to have worked because the dark lord exited his mind.

"I don't know who would be spreading lies about me my lord." Lucius said his head still bowing.

"Yes well your sister-in-law the lovely Bellatrix I do not think she would lie to me Lucius. You may be by my side now, but this was not always the case. How is Draco doing? Vincent and Greg have received their marks. Draco though I see once again he has failed to come foreword for his. Lucius what do you say for this?"

"My Lord Draco and I as you know are part Veela's he has not yet found his mate. I know you wish to mark him and his mate at the same time. My lord you have my word as a Malfoy" Lucius said lifting his head honorably.

"A Malfoy?" Voldemort boomed. "Lucius we both know a Malfoy's word is only as good as you can hear, see, and touch it. Your word is meaningless. You may be my number one front man Lucius but I expect Draco at the next meeting of Death Eaters meeting; or you will pay." he finished.

"As you wish my lord" Lucius said and cringed. He hated the idea of bringing Draco to the meeting. The idiocy of Crabbe and Goyle to have their sons marked it was ludicrous. Ruin you're life fine. But deciding your child's life before they can that's different.

"Lucius it isn't that easy. Bella I believe you have work to do here" Voldemort said rising from his throne and heading towards the door. "Do what you wish Bella, keep him alive and sane."

"Oh yes of course" Bella said elegantly stepping towards Lucius with an evil grin. She hated half bloods and mud bloods alike. She hated how he upset and lied to her master. She hated that her sister was miserable over him. Bellatrix gathered all the hate in the world to strike at Lucius who was magically bound to the floor.

Ok thanks to all my reviewers - love ya. Sorry this chapter was significantly shorter than the last but honestly… how could I not end it there? I thought it fitting.

Next Time: Sirius and Peters trial / A trip to Diagon where the Weaslys run into none other than Malfoy and Zabini / a Veela outburst.

Remember to review… it will get me to update more quickly.
