Aero snuck out again that night. She walked towards the shack, an over-arm bag hanging over her shoulder. She reached into her pocket and grabbed her wand, pointing it at the tree and freezing the branches.

She made her way through the tunnel and up the stairs. She pushed open the door and found Sirius there. He was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

Aero sat her bag down and searched through it. She grabbed some candles and enchanted them to float in the air. She pulled out some clothes; old jeans, a bear of worn boots and a button up plaid shirt. She set them on the edge of the bed. She pulled out a blanket, thick and placed it over him. She grabbed a container and pulled it out, creaking the top open just a little and Sirius sat up quickly, staring at the food intently.

She handed the thing to him. It was mashed potatoes, still warm because she had just taken them from the kitchen. In other containers were éclairs, soup, bread, muffins, sandwiches etc. She pulled out a large, cold pitcher of water and handed it to him. She gave him some chocolate grog cards and every flavor beans. Some candy she took when she went into the passageway by Honeydukes were there as well.

He dug right in.

"Tank-oo" he said around a mouth of food.

"Chew slowly, you idiot, you'll choke."

"I hope I'm not causing you much trouble."

"None at all. I've got Dumbledore covered and the Minister has been wrapped around my finger for years." She grinned.

"If you weren't helping me I'd be afraid of you…" he murmured, watching her grin warily.

Aero laughed.

"I can't stay long. Someone will notice I'm gone…"

"Can you tell me about yourself…and Harry?"

"Hm…Harry and I are close. He looks exactly like the pictures of James I've seen. But his eyes are green, and I believe that's what Lily's were. He became Gryffindor Seeker his first year. He's a danger magnet. He's extremely loyal. Good sense of humor. Annoyingly stubborn."

Sirius's expression had softened as he listened to her describe his godson. So Harry had grown up alright as well.

"And you?"

"Oh…uhm…I'm a Beater for the Gryffindor team. I grew up with my Aunt Narcissa and Uncle Lucius with their son Draco, who's Harry's age. Uhm…I'm got top marks in all my classes. I get into trouble on a regular basis. I'm in my fifth year and I've been dating Fred Weasley since third year."

"Dating? Is he a good boy? Treat you right? If he doesn't lead him out here and show him your big bad convict cousin; I'll teach him a lesson." Sirius nearly growled.

"Down boy, don't get your knickers in a knot. Fred is the perfect gentleman…when I want him to be…" she grinned when she saw him choke at that last part.

"No! I forbid any….inappropriate conduct…bloody hell I never thought I'd say that…"

"It's what happens when you get old Siri…you get all boring." She shrugged.

"I am not old!"

"You're older than me."

"Exactly. Listen to your elders, child. I may be your cool, hot, older cousin but I have my boundaries. There are just some things I won't allow my young, INNOCENT, underage cousin to do." He said promptly, crossing his arms over his chest and sticking out his chin.

Aero grinned and walked over to give him a kiss on the cheek.

"I know. That's why I love you, Sirius. I'll be back later, alright? Oh, and if your going to show up at Quidditch matches, try not to give Harry a heart attack. He keeps thinking he's seeing the grim." She said as she closed the door behind her.
