CHAPTER NINE - SUMMER BEFORE THE SECOND YEAR
The rest of the year went quickly for James, Reggie, and their friends. The Black brothers' papa was still in Azkaban, having the boys feeling upset by that. They wanted their papa out of there. When they started Hogwarts, they had a bad feeling that something was going to happen but they didn't know it was going to be concern their papa. They thought it was going to be one of them.
The brothers stepped off the train with Cole and Hermione following them.
"James and Reggie. I hope your papa gets out of Azkaban," Cole told his half-blood friends.
The Black brothers thanked him while they went back to the Muggle world. The Granger twins went to their parents and James and Reggie went to their mum. However, when they stepped toward their mother, they saw a guy standing there, talking with her. He had scars all over his face. The two didn't notice Reggie or James until Sirius squealed happily, running into James' arms.
"You're home, James!" Sirius had yelled excitedly, hugging his brother around the waist.
James smiled down at his younger brother, "Yes, Siri. I'm home."
Sirius put his hand in James' hand and walked back to his mum and the guy she was talking to. The guy was staring at James with sadness in his eyes.
"Hello. I'm Remus Lupin. I knew your biological parents when I was your age. They named you 'Harry' but I found out by your adopted dad that you go by 'James'. Why?"
James shrugged, "I never really know why I went by 'James' and don't call my papa my 'adopted dad' because he is my papa. James Potter is gone and he lost the chance to be my papa."
The guy, Remus Lupin, sighed. He didn't want to believe Regulus when he told him that James didn't believe that his parents had loved him so much that they gave their life for him. Apparently, Regulus was right. James had to know the truth. That's why he was here, to stay with the Black family for the summer.
James looked at his mama, "Mama. When do you think papa will be home?"
Rosa sighed sadly, not liking that James and Reggie knew that their father was in the wizard prison.
"Don't you two worry. I'm sure your papa and Uncle Sirius will be home very soon," she told her two eldest.
Remus sighed, not wanting his ex-friend out of Azkaban. He still believed that he was the one that betrayed the Potters and had their son grow up believing that his parents never loved him. However, he kept his mouth shut.
"Well. Let's get home and you two can get some rest," Rosa told her sons, smiling at them.
"Mrs. Black. After they get their rest, they will be starting their summer homework," Remus told Rosa, making the brothers groan, not really wanting to do homework during the summer.
Rosa glanced at Remus confused, "Hogwarts gives out homework during the summer?"
He nodded, "Yes. And they should start their homework right away and not the last minute like their Uncle Sirius and James Potter use to do."
James glance at Remus, wanting to say something but didn't. However, deep down, he wanted to know more about James and Lily Potter. And it seemed like Remus Lupin knew them. Maybe he could talk a bit with Remus about his biological parents.
