I am always going to refer to Hermione as Hermione. Unless it is Sirius speaking or Sirius's point of view. When it is Sirius Hermione will be called Hala just so it doesn't confuse people.
The next morning Hermione woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs. Her stomach rumbled and she immediately ran down stairs. She slowed when she came to the kitchen door. She was nervous to what she would find and how people would react to her now. But she was still Hermione only she was now Hala Black and not Hermione Granger.
"This is so weird," Hermione mutters to herself.
"I know right," a voice said from behind her. Hermione gasps and whips around holding out her wand only to find it was Harry standing there.
"Oh Harry you startled me," Hermione gasped as she put away her wand.
"Sorry Hermione." Harry said smiling slightly but to Hermione it looked forced.
"What's wrong Harry?" she asked concerned. I mean after all they were god-siblings now.
"Nothing," Harry replied to quikely. Hermione narrowed her eyes and Harry sighed. "It's just that. I feel like maybe Sirius wont talk to me as much now because he has you to talk to now. I mean he is no longer alone so he wont have to feel forced to talk to me," Harry said looking at the floor.
"Oh Harry. Sirius talks to you because he wants to not because he feels forced. He loves you like a son. Just because he has me now as well doesn't mean he is going to love you any less than he always has," Hermione said as she pulled Harry into a hug. Harry returned the hug smiling.
"Thanks Hermione," Harry smiled a real smile, one that reached his emerald green eyes.
"Your welcome little brother," Hermione teased as she walked into the kitchen.
"HAY! WE'RE THE SAME AGE!" Harry yells after her.
"Yes but I was born first," Hermione calls back and then runs as Harry chases her around the kitchen. Both seemingly oblivious to the fact that the room was full of Order Members, family and friends. That was until Sirius grabbed Hermione with one arm and Harry with the other.
"Hay Dad," Hermione smiled hesitantly.
"Hi Sirius," Harry said at the same time just as hesitantly.
"Hay kids. Now do you want to tell me why you two are running around the kitchen table at this hour in the morning? As much as it amuses us we don't want you getting hurt," Sirius smirked. That was the first time either child noticed everyone else. "I'm waiting," Sirius said trying to keep the smirk out of his voice.
"Hermione was teasing me," Harry admitted.
"Oh thanks Harry drop me right in it why don't you." Hermione said sarcastically.
"Well she's your daughter Sirius," Harry muttered which earned him a smack from Hermione.
"Hala stop hitting Harry," Sirius sighed.
"What?" Hermione asked in an innocent voice.
"Oh she really is your daughter Sirius," Remus yelled from across the other side of the table. Everyone laughed and Hermione pouted.
"Dad let me go," Hermione said as she tried to wriggle form Sirius's grasp.
"No can do pup. You are going to sit right there and behave you are then to go and sit in the living room and wait for your punishment," Sirius said as he plopped Hermione into a chair next to him on the right side and Harry on the left.
"What?" Hermione asked with wide eyes.
"You heard me. We don't hit people it's not nice," Sirius said and several people in the Order snorted.
"Like you can talk Black," Snape sneered.
"What am I doing now then Snape?" Sirius asked.
"Stop it the pair of you. Your acting more like children then Harry and Hermione," Mrs Weasley tutted.
"We do not," both men yelled in ignition.
"I rest my case," Mrs Weasley mumbled as the two men glared at each other.
After breakfast Hermione sat in the living room on her own while everyone else went about there cleaning duties. Sirius came in after ten minutes and sat in the arm chair. "Come here Hala," Sirius said making a come here motion with his hands. Hermione stood and walked over to her newly found father. Sirius laid her across his lap and smacked her bottom five times. Hermione was red faced and very shocked. "Have you learned your lesson?" Sirius asked.
"Yes dad," Hermione said and snuggled into her fathers embrace. Not long later Harry came in with tears straking down his face.
"Whats wrong Harry?" Sirius asked as Harry came over and Sirius sat him on his other knee.
"I had a flash back," Harry whispered.
"Of what Harry?" Sirius asked as the fourteen year old boy buried his face in his God-fathers shoulder.
"Uncle Vernon." Harry whispered.
"I think it's high time his memories were put into a penasive," Hermione said looking at her brother and then her father.
"That's a good idea. What do you think Harry?" Sirius asked.
"I'd like that." Harry whispered.
"Then that's what we'll do," Sirius said and then he smiled. "And then me and Moony can show you some memories of your parents. I'm sure Snape will let you see some of Lily," Sirius said.
"Really?" Harry asked smiling.
"Really," Sirius replied. "And then Hermione can see some of her mother too," Sirius said. Both teenagers smiled at each other and snuggled onto Sirius's lap. Soon all three were asleep.
