Chapter 2 - Well, What Do You Know?

~*~*~

Boom! Boom! Harry jolted out of his corner of the room. The door was being knocked on - hard. Harry scrambled out, despite his painful back, and unlocked the door. The sun was already high in the sky. Harry opened the door and expected a big scolding from Vernon. Instead, Sirius Black, his godfather, stood there, smiling at Harry.

"S- Sirius?" Harry stuttered in awe.

"Hello there Harry," Sirius smiled.

"What are you doing here?"

"To pick you up, of course - Where's your bed? Where have you been sleeping all night? Did the Muggles let you sleep on the ground?" Sirius demanded angrily, rushing through the questions.

"The bed hasn't arrived yet. All of them haven't arrived yet. It's okay, Sirius. I just slept on the floor, I'm fine, so don't worry." Harry calmly explained.

"Floor? I'm not sure about the floor, Harry. It is hard and not good for your back," Sirius thought for a while.

Harry shook his head and insisted he was fine.

"Well how did you find me? How did you know I was in this room?" Harry asked.

"Oh, we always know where you are. As for the room. The same reason as the first," Sirius grinned.

"You look better, Sirius. I mean. more lively. Did they clear your name?" Harry smiled at the thought.

"Yes, they did clear my name, Harry. They believed Dumbledore. I am happy that they believed Dumbledore," Sirius smiled again.

"Come now, shall we leave?" Sirius asked after Harry had scribbled a "goodbye" note to the Dursleys. Harry shook his head, saying it would take him half an hour to pack.

"That can be fixed," Sirius took out his wand and pointed at Harry's belongings and muttered a spell, which Harry could not hear. Immediately, Harry's belongings flew into his suitcase. Harry smiled at his godfather and followed him out of the door, his note to the Dursleys forgotten. But on his way out, the note slipped out of his jeans pocket and onto the floorboard. Harry asked Sirius for the time, to which Sirius replied, "Seven in the morning."

It was no wonder the Dursley family was still asleep.

Harry rode on another broom Sirius had brought along, following Sirius. Harry looked back at the Dursleys' new house and shouted happily, "Bye, Dursleys! And 'hello' to Sirius!!!"

Sirius looked back at his happy godson and smiled happily to himself.
