Skyler

On with the story folks…

Sirius-POV

It was still dark outside as I lay in the king-size bed of the Lords suites of Black Manor. I knew it was just barely past 6am and soon my darling little boy would come running into the room and bound onto the bed in and attempt to startle me awake.

He did so every morning since he could walk on his own and began sleeping in his big boy bed. I can't help but smile at the memories.

~Beginning of Memory~

It was another cool spring morning, just a few days shy of Easter and I was once again awake early. It seemed that I woke early most mornings since the attack on my beloved family. I could never sleep through the night without James by my side it seems.

Glancing at the clock I noticed it was coming onto half past 6am and I should soon be getting up to start off the day. Hadrian would be awake anytime now, always the early riser; just like his Papa he is in that regard.

A smile began to spread across my lips at the thought my baby boy. So rambunctious in his behavior; he truly is the son of two marauders. I could only imagine the schemes he would get into once older and attending Hogwarts. 'Poor Poor Minnie' I thought laughing quietly.

It was then as I was about to rise from the bed that I heard it. The small pitter patter of feet on the hardwood floor that I came to recognise immediately belonging to Hadrian over the past few months since he learned to walk. My little pup was coming to awake me this morning it seems.

I could hear him giggling as he got closer to the open doorway; he was up to something. So being the good daddy that I am I closed my eyes and feigned sleep, evening my breathing out and waited patiently.

It wasn't long before he quietly crept into the room trying-and failing- to stifle his giggles. I didn't have to wait long-thankfully as it was getting harder to hold in a smile-before he came to the opposite side of the bed I was laying on.

Crawling up -with some difficulty due to the height- he made his way to my side, and leaned in close so I could feel his breath on my ear and cheek.

And then he began to sing.

"Oh wake up, wake up Daddy, Please get up for meee" He began quietly and slowly but by the end of it was yelling in my ear "WAAAKKE UPPPPPPP… DADDY WAKE UP!"

I couldn't help it. I started laughing a gut wrenching laugh.

Sitting up and leaning over I began tickling the little monster who attempted to disturb my beauty sleep.

"You think you can disturb my beauty sleep you little rascal? ... Well the tickle monster gonna get you now" I said still laughing as he tried to wriggle away from me squealing "DADDY"

~End of Memory~

I came back to the present smiling to myself and to the same pitter patter of little feet. Hadrian was up and at it again.

I Feigned sleep as usual and waited for the assault and song that was my wake up call. It came quickly and as usual I grabbed him up and tickled him as punishment.

Once we both calmed down and were breathing regularly again I scooped him up and headed over to the attached washroom to give him his morning bath.

"Daddy do I havta go to my lesson wif auntie Cassie taday?" he asked in his cute little voice, with words mushed together and incorrectly pronounced.

I smiled at him as I undressed him and placed him into the bath that one of the house-elves prepared while were having our tickle-war.

"I'm afraid so pup" I answered smiling apologetically at him as I bathed him "you know how your grandmothers and Grandfathers are; they want you raised and taught like the Black Heir you are; so the lessons are needed."

I had to hold in a laugh as he pouted cutely with his bottom lip sticking out. "But I's don't wanna…I wanna stay wif you"

"I know pup, but your Papa and I had to do these silly lesson when we were big boys too, and Dray will be there with you, so you'll be able to play with him when you have breaks."

I had said the right words.

'His papa and I had to do these lessons too.' If there was anything Hadrian loved; it was when someone would bring up his Papa and tell him stories, or if he was told he was doing something that his daddies did.

With this new piece of information-and the reminder that he was going to be seeing his cousin Draco all day- the rest of the morning bath went on with much fuss. Sure Hadrian still pouted when getting his hair washed because of the soap but that wasn't going to change anytime soon.

Grabbing one of the fluffy gray towels with the Black family crest on it I scooped him up and walked him out of the Bathroom and over to my bed where his clothes were placed. Sitting him down on the edge I began to dry him quickly before dressing him in his black slacks and blue shirt and black sneakers; before grabbing my wand from the bedside table and drying his hair magically so it fell in soft silky waves to the tips of his ears where they curled naturally; thanks to his genetics from James.

Satisfied with his appearance I gave him the remote to the Television-that now ran on magic-I had bought for my room along with one in the family room on the first floor-in honor of Lily and her muggle heritage-while I turned and went to my closet to get dressed myself.

Since I had a few meetings today at Gringotts while Hadrian was at his lessons I chose to wear black slacks and grey button down with my usual Dragonhide boots. Grabbing a black and emerald green travelers cloak and slinging it over my arm I made sure my hair was pulled back in a band at the nape of my neck and walked back out to take Hadrian down for breakfast.

He was lying in the centre of the bed when I re-entered the bedroom; watching some cartoon about a magic school bus, and a crazy teacher with a pet lizard. I smiled at the site he made his small form almost disappearing between the dozens of pillows on the giant bed.

"C'mon little man" I called softly 'let's go get you some breakfast"

Turing off the telly Hadrian scrambled to my side and asked to be picked up and carried down to the first floor.

Loving having him in my arms and relishing in the cuddles; I gladly scooped him up and began the walk down the two stories to the main floor and into the Dining room.

Breakfast went by without much talk; I could tell Hadrian was still a bit upset that he would have to leave me for the whole day. We hadn't spent more than a couple hours apart in over two years. Needless to say, I was a bit sad at the fact too.

Aunt Cassiopeia showed up at 8am sharp to take Hadrian, and going to collect Draco from home before taking both boys to her cottage on the outskirts of Spain.

Placing a fake smile on my face I kissed Cassie on the cheek before hugging Hadrian close for a minute whispering "I'll see you at three o-clock okay buddy!" and kissing his forehead before finally letting go.

With a final farewell they both stepped into the Flue and were gone.

I just stood there staring at the empty fire as a tear slipped down my cheek.

"When did he get so big Jamie?" I whispered to the air even though I knew he couldn't hear me. Sighing I grabbed my cloak and head to the fireplace myself; flue-ing to Gringotts.

~PAGE BREAK Narrators POV~

Cassiopeia Black wasn't the nicest person in the world, nor was she the most patient either. Not unless you were someone she saw deserved her kindness and Patience. Her family were one of the few that saw this side of her.

Two particular boys being the ones to bring it about the most; it was why she asked to teach them the ways of being a Black.

Hadrian and Draco were remarkable children, both powerfully gifted, though Hadrian more so. Both bright, insightful and dignified; something that Black prided themselves for.

The lessons she planned to teach them had only been going on for a little under two hours and they were currently on one of their breaks; she could already see that they would catch on quickly. Something both their Grandparents would be pleased with.

Hadrian; while a prankster like his fathers was naturally polite, so etiquette was something that seemed like second nature to him. It wouldnt take long for him to catch on to the proper ways to hold a fork, which piece of Silverware to use for each course when they were taught to him.

Draco; thanks to his father had a bit of a competitive edge to him, so when Hadrian got something, he had to get it too. Things didn't come quite as quickly for him, but with his hard work and determination to be as good as his cousin he caught on quicker than most would.

With their ability to grasp things the way they were, they would be moving past the table manners portion of etiquette classes soon enough and going into greeting those of higher social standered, and they way to act as perfect gentlemen in the company of others. Dance lessons would also be taught once they learned the basics; that however would be taught by Narcissa when the time came.

It was after lunch that Cassie decided to give them a bit of a test to review their knowledge on table manners and how to act in public.

"Alright boys" she began sternly "When attending a dinner at another Lords house, how should you proceed to begin the meal?"

"By waiting til the Host and Hostess have seated first" Draco said immediately.

Nodding to show he was right she waited to see if the boys would continue.

"Once they sit, we can then sit down too" Hadrian started thinking hard "den we must wait until da host takes the first bite, and den and only den can everyone else start to eat too"

"Very good" she praised them " now…."

The rest if there lesson went on in the same manner. Aunt Cassie would ask both of them questions and they would try and answer correctly. When one would get a wrong answer the other was given the chance to answer correctly. If neither new Cassie would go over it again with them until they were able to answer everything right. Before long there first lesson was finished and soon enough Cassie was gathering them up and flue-ing them each home with plans for their next lesson in two days.

Sirius had been home for about an Hour when he heard the Flue activate. Jumping up from the chair he was lounging in reading over the papers from his account manager, he raced to the Entrance hall and smiled scooping his son up happily while spinning around and making the boy laugh.

"Hey pup, how was your lesson with Auntie Cassie?"

"Good, but I missed you daddy" he yawned sleepily-snuggling into the crook of his daddy's neck- tired from the day's activities.

"Thanks Cassie, was he good?" Sirius asked turning to the woman by the fire.

"He was good, caught on quickly" she replied " his next lesson is in two days, I'm going start off slow for this year and only have lessons three days a week since they are still young."

Nodding in agreement Sirius bid her goodbye before turning around and heading to the stairs.

"c'mon Pup let's put you down for a nap, when you wake up we will have Dinner, then head over to visit Papa and you can tell him all about your day okay?" he said quietly rubbing his little back softly knowing it would put him to sleep by the time they reached the third floor and Hadrian's rooms.

As he expected Hadrian was out cold by the time they reached the third floor landing, so being as gentle as he could he laid him down on his bed and covered him up with his blankets and his two favorite stuffed toys; a stag and a black dog.

Kissing his head; Sirius left the room setting the wards so he would alert him when he woke up or if there was a disturbance in the room, he headed out the door and to his study to finish looking over the papers from Gringotts.

As James was currently in the hospital Sirius was taking up all responsibility over both the Black and Potter estates and Properties. All had been going smoothly over the last couple of years. Until recently that is.

There had been a disturbance in one of the Vaults. Someone had tried to enter with an old Key. All keys other than the ones in a magical safe-behind a Portrait of the little family of three-had been called in and destroyed a week after Halloween almost three years ago. Or so they had thought. Even still all keys had been made in active. So it was no surprise that the person was denied access to the Potter Vaults. The Problem; they didn't know who still held a key. The person didn't deal with a Goblin clerk; they had gone straight to the carts through a special side door-as many old and influential pureblood families were accustomed to doing-got into a cart down to the Vaults by announcing the destination and attempting to Enter with the key. They had fled when denied access before the goblins could catch them.

Sirius was NOT happy with this news. Everything he was already dealing with had him stressed enough. But now he wanted-no needed- to know who tried to access his son's Trust Vault. Why they attempted to steal not Only from an old and noble family; but from a child at that he didn't no.

But if there were two things Sirius was good at however; it was getting answers and getting what he wanted.

He would get to the bottom of this.

An hour later Sirius was finishing up the paper work needed for the investigation, when he felt the Wards around his son's room flare before settling again; announcing the little boy within was awake and getting off the bed.

Putting everything away he got up and left his study and entering his room just as Hadrian reached the door.

"Well hello sleepyhead" Sirius smiled as he leant down and picked him up; ruffling his bed raddled hair "did you have a good nap?"

"uhuh daddy, I dweamed of you an papa takin me to da park" he yawned, his mouth forming a cute little o.

"Really, did we play with your ball like last time?"

"No we had a picnic…can we have a picnic daddy?"

Smiling as the descended the stairs Sirius made a mental note to ask the House-elves to prepare a picnic for their lunch the next day "of course buddy; tomorrow you and I are having a picnic in the park I promise"

Supper that night went by quickly, they were both eager to finish so they could leave and go spend time with James before visiting hours were over. Hadrian was especially excited; he had a whole day of things to tell his papa.

~PAGE BREAK~

Sirius-POV

We arrived through the flue at St. Mungo's on the Semi-Permanent ward to a rush of activity. Healers in every color uniform, and status were speaking excitedly.

Not paying much attention to the craziness that was the ward I walked past everyone without a word and headed in the direction of my husband's room.

We got there quickly despite the chaos of the hallways; Hadrian jumping out of my arms in his excitement and running through the open doorway to his Papa's room.

He was laying there sleeping peacefully; as was normal when we arrived.

I smiled sadly at the site of my son climbing on the side of the bed and kissing James' cheek whispering "I love you Papa" in his ear sure that he heard him.

I sat down in the chair reserved specifically for me and listened as our son talked animatedly about his day, making sure he didn't leave anything out.

"I had my firs lesson wif Auntie Cassie, and Dray was dare Papa" he began excitedly "I didn wanna go a firs, I wanted to stay wif Daddy, but he said you had to do them too, when you was big like me, so I went. Auntie Cassie teached me lots and lots of stuff. I learned that I'm not sposed to eat before da host of a house, and dat a Gentleboy is sposed to wait for a girl to sit before him. I'm gonna be da best Gentleboy ever Papa."

I smiled when he referred to himself as Gentleboy knowing he meant to say Gentleman. It was just too cute.

"You mean Gentleman?" I asked with a smile and nearly laughed out right when he turned around serious as can be and responded "I'm not a Gentleman Daddy. I'm not big like you, I'm a Gentleboy"

I just nodded and went back to listening to his talk about his day and our plans for tomorrow, relishing in the moment.

"Guess what Papa, I had a dweam about you and Daddy takin me to da park and havin a picnic, so Daddy is gonna take me tomorrow, it's gonna be so much fun … I wish you could go too"

The last bit he whispered quietly before leaning over and laying his head on James' chest; done talking for the moment. I knew he missed him, and wished he'd wake up. I wished that too. I just prayed he would wake soon, Hadrian needed his Papa to hug him back.

I sat quietly looking around the room and listening to the ruckus outside. Something had happened since we had been here the night before.

It wasn't until I did a second sweep of the room that I noticed something; James wasn't on the "coactus somno" Potion. The I.V that constantly pushed a supply into his system and kept his brainwave active while his body and magic was unable to do the job was no longer attached to his arm.

Yes something had happened since last night; and I was going to find out!

A/N Well that's that chapter. I hoped you liked it. I loved writing the fluff between Hadrian and his daddy and Papa. He's so cute. Lol. I should have the next chapter up by the end of next week.
