It was the middle of the night and Harry woke up with a start.

Another nightmare

Sweat pouring down his face as he remembered what his nightmare had been about this time. For once this summer it wasn't Cedric, it was his mum and dad on the day they died. He heard their screams and saw his mum die before him, then looking up into those crimson eyes, stained with the blood that was on his hands. He then had pointed his wand at Harry and that was when he had woken up.

Harry looked around the room as he orientated himself, he was in 12 Grimmauld place, sharing his room with Ron who when looked over was drooling on his pillow. Most likely he was thinking of food again. Harry grabbed his glasses from the dressing table and looked at the grandfather clock in the corner of the room, it read 6:00 meaning that some of the adults would be starting to wake up and that Harry actually got a decent night's sleep, he thought it must have been something to do with him being with his family again.

Harry quickly and quietly got dressed and crept down the stairs, avoiding the creaky steps, towards the kitchen where he could smell Mrs Weasley's cooking, bacon, toast, eggs and so much more which he would have gorged himself on if it wasn't to the fact that he would most likely spew it up later, because of his stomach not being able to eat too much after being starved.

He opened the door to find Mrs Weasley at the stove wearing an apron and hair that could possibly rival the Potter curse, Remus in the corner still in his pyjamas reading a book, Sirius half asleep with his face on the table and Tonks reading the Daily Profit at the opposite end of the kitchen table from Sirius.

When Harry walks in its Remus that first notices him, with his werewolf senses it was almost impossible to sneak up on the guy, almost. He looked up from his book, gave me a warm smile when he saw me.

"Aren't you up a bit early cub? Most teens sleep till noon don't they? Ron defiantly does." He said suppressing a laugh as he spotted Harry's hair, it was worse than usual. What Harry's hair looked like was the Potter equivalent of a bed head.

He got up from where he was and walked over to him to give Harry a good morning hug, hitting Sirius with his book on the way over. Sirius quickly snapped back to life and jumped out of his seat and went to give Harry a hug. He loved his pup and would be willing to give up his life for him but he would never tell Harry that as he wouldn't want anyone to do that for him, it was like he didn't know how important he was to everyone that loved him.

"Good morning pup; wow does your hair look a mess. What did you do last; get dragged through a bush backwards for an hour." he gave out a huge Sirius laugh at brought Harry back into another hug.

Once they had finished with the good mornings the group sat down and waited for breakfast. They talked about random things to tales about what the marauders did in their school days, prank after prank. Some of the pranks Harry would prefer were kept away from the twin's knowledge, for his own safety of course. Slowly the rest of the houses occupants filtered into the kitchen taking up their usual sets at the table. Once everyone was in the room Mrs Weasley dished out breakfast equally? Harry could have sworn he saw her put extra of everything on his plate. How he was going to finish it was mind-boggling for him. The usual table natter started up, the twins set off a few pranks, Tonks transformed into various animals and such and Hermione spilt her apple juice on the "Hogwarts a History" book, Harry and Ron cheered at this gaining two glares one from Hermione and one from Mrs Weasley and Ron almost got caught by Hermione around the head. This continued for about 15 minutes before Dumbledore arrived ready to inform them of what would be happening when it came for the kids to leave the next day.

"Moody, Remus, Kingsley and Tonks could you please accompany Molly and Arthur in taking the children to the train station. There will be ministry aurors and such there as well however I do believe that it would be in the children's best interest if some of the Order was there to escort them as well." Dumbledore asked in his grandfather voice as Fred had put it.

There was several yes' coming from the around the room from the people mentioned and a grunt from Moody which meant fine but I could be doing much more useful things with my time than looking after a bunch of kids. Dumbledore smiled at the Order members and was about to leave before he stopped at the doorway and turned to look at Remus and Sirius.

"Oh yes Remus, am I right in thinking that you have yet to inform your nephew about a certain matter pertaining you and Snuffles yet?" he said this with the twinkle in his eye slowly brightening.

"Oh yes, I forgot," Remus said with a smile turning round to face Harry, "I will be taking the post of Defence Against the Dark Arts again this year."

It took Harry only a couple of seconds to register what that sentence had meant, a smile broke across his face and lunged towards Remus and brought him into a big hug. They stayed like that for several moments not caring when the people around them started to laugh. They finally pulled apart.

"That means we will have a brilliant DADA teacher again, one that won't try to wipe our minds or kill us." This brought a simultaneous YEAH! from the Hogwarts students present.

All the adults in the room laugh at the teen's antics, and following this laughter Dumbledore leaves.

The rest of the day Harry spent his time changing from playing games and chatting with his friends to listening to Sirius and Remus tell him stories of his parents. Harry eyes lit up every time he heard something that involved his parent's school years or just their lives in general. Harry also learnt a lot about the two marauders some thing he laughed at but others made him seethe in anger at the way some people had treated his family. At the end of the day they all went to bed early as they all knew how hectic tomorrow would be.
