CHAPTER EIGHT

Sitting in the Slytherin common room, James was looking at the fireplace with tears flowing down his cheeks. He didn't care that the other students saw him cry. If it was another time, yeah, he would have cared. However, his papa, Regulus Black, was in Azkaban. He knew that his papa was one of Voldemort's ex-death eater but that didn't mean that he was still working for You-Know-Who. The jet-black-haired Slytherin felt hatred towards the old wizard. He hadn't felt like since his relatives went to prison.

In the corner of the common room, the mudblood Slytherin was watching his half-blood friend. He didn't know what James was going through because he never had someone he knew go to prison before.

The reason why he wasn't sitting next to James becausethe jet-black-haired boy was very angry. Reggie told him that he shouldn't be near James when he was this angry.

Cole sighed softly before he left the common room to find his sister.

However, someone didn't get the memo and stood in front of James. The jet-black-haired boy looked up to see that it was Draco Malfoy.

"What do you want, Malfoy?"

"I heard that Regulus Black is in Azkaban," the blonde-haired boy smirked.

James narrowed his eyes at the pureblood boy, "Leave me alone, blondie."

"I knew that Black worked for the Dark Lord."

Standing up angrily, James said, "Papa hates Voldemort! He wanted to be just like Uncle Sirius! You don't know my family! Leave me alone, Malfoy!"

"Mr. Potter-Black!"

The two students looked up to see Professor Snape standing near the entrance of the Snake common room.

"Come with me now."

James huffed angrily, following Snape.

They were both quiet until they got to the potion classroom. The young Slytherin sat down at one of the desks while Snape sat down behind his own.

"Mr. Potter-Black..."

"Black. My last name is Black."

Snape sighed annoyed, "I know that your 'papa' is in Azkaban. However, that doesn't give you a reason to be rude to the other students. I already had a long talk with your 'brother' about hurting other students. I thought Regulus Black taught you that fighting others is wrong. I guess you are just like your biological father."

James rolled his eyes, "Actually, I am nothing like James Potter. He got himself killed. I am not going to get killed."

Snape narrowed his eyes at the boy in front of him, "Mr. Potter-Black. I never liked Potter. However, I know that he would give his life for you and Lily."

"Papa said the same thing to me about James giving his life. Why in the world would he do that?"

"He loved you and Lily. You two were his whole world. I don't think that he would like to hear that his only son is talking so badly about him."

James looked down at his hands sadly, "I just want my papa."

The professor sighed silently, watching the jet-black-haired boy softly.

Sitting on the ground, Regulus was thinking about his wife and four sons. What if he couldn't get out of here? What's going to happen to his wife and children? He didn't want them to think that he had abandoned them. He hoped that they will not think like that.

"Reg?"

Regulus looked at his older brother, Sirius, "Yes."

"How did Harry (James) end up with you?" he asked softly, thinking about how his godson had turned out.

Regulus sighed, "When Reggie was three, Rosa and I took him to the park. Reggie ran to the sandbox where there was another boy. I swear to god that I didn't know that boy was Harry Potter. Rosa and I were talking when Reggie walked up to us with his new little friend. His clothes were too big for him and his glasses were slipping off his face. Reggie told Rosa and me that his new friend was Harry Potter. I was in shock that I found him in the muggle world. Soon, I found out what happened to James and Lily. I knew something happened to you but I didn't know what happen until James was five. Two years later, I sent his uncle and aunt to prison for abusing him. And their son went to a foster home. That's when I told him that he was a wizard. I had to show him magic. On his ninth birthday, I told him what happened to his biological parents. I wish I hadn't done that but I knew that I had to or he would have found out the truth at Hogwarts. Like I said in the letter, he thinks his parents didn't care about him. I was hoping you or Lupin would tell him the truth about James and Lily."

Sirius sighed, not knowing what to think of his godson. He was going to make sure that Harry or James, as his brother called him now, knew that his parents loves him and would give their lives again just for him. Of course, when they got out, Sirius was going to have Regulus sigh his rights to him. And the two can live in the wizarding world with Remus. Of course, Sirius didn't knoow how hard that was going to be.
