A/N: I am so glad I no longer have writer's block because there is nothing that makes me happier then writing. Anyway I love writing for everyone that reads my fanfictions and while writing this I had an idea for a book. Let's hope I don't get writer's block for it because I am really excited and feel that it might be a good plot… I hope so at least. If you want to hear more about it just let me know.

No one tried to get out, but I didn't hear anything either. I just sat down on the floor and waited…and waited. Three hours had now gone by and still I heard nothing. Hopefully Hermione hadn't killed Draco.
My eyes started to droop until I saw a shaggy black dog wandering the halls. I caught his eye at the same time he had caught mine.
I stayed where I was and the shaggy dog ran towards me with a grin on his face. I rubbed his ears and whispered into one, "Hey Siri."
Sirius licked my face in response. I laughed and wrapped my arms around his neck. Even though I wish he didn't have to be in animagus form this was better than nothing.
He nudged me and then looked around me to the library door.
"I had to lock Hermione and Draco in there." He whined and I guessed he was confused since I hadn't told him about Hermione and Draco.
"I will explain later when I know something." He shrugged as best as he could and lay down with his head in my lap.
I knew he was probably supposed to leave, but I didn't want him to so I said nothing. I scratched his ears as I continued to wait and watch people passing by looking at me like I was crazy.
"OKAY THAT'S IT!" I jumped up and probably scared Sirius, but I didn't allow myself time to find out.
I opened the library door and didn't see anything. I walked further in and looked around still nothing. I started to turn around until I heard a book drop. I turned back around and peeked around the corner and saw Draco and Hermione in almost the same position she had caught me and Sirius in earlier.
I was just going to leave it alone, but Sirius came up behind me and put his finger to his now human lips. I wanted to see what he was going to do so I stepped aside.
"Well hi Hermione how's it going?" I looked around Sirius and saw that both their mouths were wide open and Sirius was smiling from ear to ear. I tried to suppress a laugh, but I couldn't
"Oh well it seems to be going well so catch up with you later." He turned around quickly and grabbed my arm.
We both laughed harder than we had in awhile. Even when Sirius turned back into his animagus form we kept on laughing. Of course Sirius's laugh was more of a bark now.
We continued down the hall until I bumped into something. It was Snape. Why did he always just pop up out of nowhere.
Snape didn't say anything, but he did glare down at Sirius as Sirius growled up at him. When I tried to walk around him though he pulled me back.
"Come with me Potter." I looked down at Sirius and he looked like he was about to take a bite out of Snape's leg. I wouldn't have minded, but I knew he really couldn't do much in that form.
"Alright" Sirius looked up at me in concern. I patted the top of his head and said, "Don't worry I will be back soon Siri."
Before I even had time to kiss the top of Sirius's head Snape was pulling me off in the direction of his office. I could hear Sirius still growling in the background.
When we got to his office he pushed me in and locked the door. Snape was always so creepy. I didn't know if it was just his personality, his pointy nose, or his greasy hair that disturbed the most.
"Sit down Potter."
"I don't plan on being here that long so I am fine standing." He sneered at my response, but I didn't care.
He stood by the door for a second, but then finally sat behind his desk.
"Dumbledore has told me about your dreams Potter. He wants me to help you guard against them."
Dumbledore sure does get around.
"I am fine thanks haven't had anymore."
He waved his hand to the door for me to leave, but right before I walked out he said, "My help doesn't come around often Potter."
I didn't pay attention to his last statement. I just walked out and headed towards the library to see if Sirius was still there.
When I was just about there and I saw Sirius still waiting in front of the library door I started to think about what Snape had said. Yes I hadn't had any more dreams, but Dumbledore wouldn't have told him to help me unless he thought it was something serious, right?
Sirius saw me and trotted over to my side.
"Everything is alright Siri." He whined, but seemed to not worry about it just yet.
"Are they still in there?" Sirius nodded his head in response.
"Well come on then if they get caught that will be their problem."
We started heading off to Gryffindor tower when I remembered I had Quidtich practice.
"Sirius I have to go to practice. Wait for me in the common room alright?" he whined again, but trotted off towards the tower.
Everyone was going to be mad I was already thirty minutes late to practice. I could just blame it on Snape though and everyone would understand. Even though I probably would have been on time if I hadn't stopped to check on Sirius. I still wasn't sure if he was leaving today or not so every chance I got to see if he was still here I was going to take it.
When I got to the Quiditch field no one was there. I figured they were all in the dressing room already, but when I got back there no one was around. I searched until finally I found a note on one of the doors.
All Quiditch matches have been canceled until further notice
Dumbledore
Well I guess that was good news, but for some reason I was disappointed. I hadn't gotten to fly my firebolt this year and sometimes I felt incomplete if it had been too long since I had got on a broom. The firebolt was my very first gift from Sirius. Which he had given me before I even knew he was not the one who betrayed my parents. I was grateful for the broom and most of all I was grateful to have Sirius in my life.
I wondered back up to the common room wondering why Dumbledore had exactly canceled the matches. Why hadn't anyone told him in the first place?
When I entered the common room I saw Ron and Hermione talking with Sirius's head in Hermione's lap. She was scratching his ears. He seemed happy about it, but she did not. I assumed he blackmailed her into it. I couldn't help, but to laugh again when I had seen Hermione and Draco earlier that day.
"Hey Ron, Hermione" I only winked at Sirius since there were other people in the room. He winked back.
I sat down next to them and Sirius shifted around so he could lie in my lap instead of Hermione's.
"Finally Padfoot weighs a TON!" Sirius growled, but didn't mind too much.
"How long is Padfoot staying anyway Harry?" asked Ron?
"I'm not sure…" I didn't want to remind Sirius he was suppose to leave today, but I think he got the jist of it since he nudged my hand.
"Well I think he should leave now." Hermione mumbled under her breath in a playful tone. Sirius and I laughed. Ron didn't get it so he continued to look back and forth at us, but when he realized we weren't saying anything he let it go.
We all sat there for awhile in silence relaxing. Sometimes it was nice being able to sit with people, but not having to worry about talking about anything.
A few minutes passed by when one of the school's owls flew in and dropped a letter on Hermione's lap.
"Who's it from?" Asked Ron in a very curious tone while trying to take a peek at who it was from.
I could tell who it was from because as soon as Hermione had opened the letter a huge grin spread across her face.
"No one special." She looked at me as she said this. I guess to warn me not to say anything.
Ron didn't care too much because soon after the letter arrived he received one himself. Once he was occupied with his own letter Hermione showed me hers.
I want to see you again…I miss you…
Draco
Well it wasn't much, but it was straight to the point. I showed Sirius before I gave it back to Hermione. She didn't seem too bothered with the fact I had shown him.
Ron got up stretched and headed upstairs. I assumed to write his Hufflepuff back he never went to bed this early.
"Well I am going to." She blushed as she said this.
"What going to reply to your letter."
"No…I have…um studying to do." She stuck out her tongue then rushed off. She lied I know she had otherwise her face wouldn't have been as bright as a tomato.
I sat there for a while longer since I could hear Sirius snoring. I didn't want to wake him just yet and before I knew it I fell asleep as well with Sirius still in my lap.

A/N: How did everyone like it? Not much really happened in this chapter, but I don't think there should ever be major things happening in EVERY chapter. You just end up running out of things to write about and then you are stuck with either ending the story or coming up with complete crap…Please Review and thank you for reading. Oh also I don't know if I spelt Quiditch right… I don't think I did, but I was too lazy to get up and check. So please correct me if I did.
