Here's the next chapter. Thanks so much for all the reviews!!

(*) Christmas Eve (*)

After Sirius had put Remus to bed, he went to see how Harry was
doing. He twisted the doorknob and pushed on it slightly. Sirius
frowned when the he realized something was leaning on it. He pushed it
open slowly and slipped through the door as far as it would open.
Sirius smiled as he realized what was blocking the door. Harry lie
there, content, slightly snoring. Sirius stood there trying to figure
out a way to move him without waking Harry up. Sighing, he shook the
boy's shoulder and Harry opened his eyes groggily.

'Sorry kid, but I don't think the floor is very comfortable.'

Harry picked his head up a little and looked around confused. He sat up
and said, 'How's Remus doing?'
'Fine he's asleep right now.'
Harry nodded and leaned against the door with his eyes closed. Before
Sirius knew it, Harry was asleep again. Smiling, Sirius helped him up
and laid him on his bed. Then, he went to his own room and fell on the
bed. As soon as Sirius's head hit the pillow he was asleep, too.

Remus went into the kitchen to make some coffee. By how quiet the house
was he suspected that he was the first to get up. Footsteps came down
the stairs and Remus looked up to see the face of Sirius. Sirius fixed
himself a cup of coffee and sipped at it. The silence must have been
unnerving to him because he asked, 'What time is it Moony?'

Remus looked at the clock. It was 11 o' clock. They had slept all of
yesterday and some of today. Sirius grinned sheepishly when Remus told
him. Remus grinned back at him and Harry came through the door.
'Morning Harry,' Sirius said. Sirius turned, smiling, to Harry but
stopped when Harry looked at him. 'What's wrong,' he asked.

'Nothing, it's just I had another.dream.'
Remus looked at Harry sympathetically and motioned for him to take a
seat. Harry smiled slightly and sat down next to Sirius. Leaning on
Sirius's shoulder, Harry told them of his dream.

'Well it's kind of confusing to say. You see first I was in the
graveyard and I kept seeing Cedric g-get killed and then I was watching
Peter making the potion to revive Voldemort. And then he looked at me
and raised his wand. As soon as Voldemort said a spell I was at the
shrieking shack and m-m-my d-dad was there. He kept saying that h-he
loved me and th-that he misses me.'

Harry's green eyes filled up with tears as he got off Sirius's
shoulder. He fled out of the room and Remus followed him with his eyes.
When Remus looked back at Sirius, he was slightly surprised to see
tears. 'Sirius?'

Sirius looked up a tear made its way down. 'James should be here Moony,
he and Lily should be sharing Christmas with Harry.'
Remus looked down at the table and sighed. He hadn't thought about
Christmas. With a start, Remus realized that today was Christmas Eve.

'Sirius? Not to be inconsiderate but we need to go shopping. It's
Christmas Eve.'
Sirius nodded and put his mug in the sink. Remus frowned as Sirius went
outside. He followed him out and saw Sirius sitting on the steps with
his head on his arms. Remus went over there and put an arm around his
shoulder.

'It'll be okay Sirius.'
' Yeah, I know,' came the muffled reply.
'Now come on let's go to Diagon Alley and get Harry something special.'
Another muffled reply came. 'Okay.'

Sirius lifted his head and looked at Remus.
'So what to get Harry.'
Remus shrugged. 'Oh I don't know, he's your godson.'
Sirius rolled his eyes and said, 'Why don't we give him something
special.'
'What?'
'I don't know, maybe something like, a..ummm..Oh.'
'What?'

Sirius stood up and looked around. 'What's the one thing that Harry
wishes for more than anything else?'
'His parents?'

Sirius beamed. 'Yes we could give him his parents.'
Remus looked confused. 'What? Sirius they're dead.'
'I know Remie, but our memories are not. We could get a pensieve and
show Harry our memories we have of his parents. It's perfect see Harry
can even get inside and see more than what we show!'

Remus stood up looking excited. 'You know Padfoot, that just might
work. Harry would love it.'

Sirius grinned and turned for the house. He stopped and turned around.
Squinting he looked at Remus. Remus looked at Sirius with a curious
expression. Sirius then nodded and went inside.
Remus stood there, confused, and then remembered that look. That was
the look Sirius got when he was planning something Remus didn't know
about. Remus only thought that whatever it was, that everyone would be
safe.
