Summery: Wormtail is captured and Sirius is freed, so, for the end of the summer, Harry goes to live with Sirius. What happens when Harry finds Sirius' pensive and learns of a secret that he was never suppose to know.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The Life of a Father
Harry stood shaking the frying pan with bacon over the burner. The Dursleys sat around the kitchen table watch T.V. as Harry made their breakfast. Then, the morning news came on.
'Yesterday, a man by the name of Peter Pettigrew was found and captured.' At this Harry turned and watched as Wormtail's faced appeared 'Said to have been killed 14 years ago by the escaped convict Sirius Black, Pettigrew had actually faked his own death and killed 13 people. He is also being charged for the murder of Lily and James Potter.' The Dursleys were now staring at the T.V. too.
'Sirius Black has been cleared of all charges and been given his home back, along with a compensation of 1000 pounds. Black was also given custody over his 15-year-old godson, Harry Potter. In other news.' the Dursleys glanced worriedly over at Harry, then, as if on cue, the doorbell rang.
Harry ran to the door and threw it open. He instantly met the smiling face of his godfather. "Hey kido! Did you hear the news? I'm a free man!" he cried and Harry launched himself onto Sirius.
"I just saw it on the news! That means I get to live with you right!" Harry cheered and without even waiting for an answer, bolted up the stairs to pack, leaving a laughing Sirius behind him.
After collecting all of his belongings and stuffing them in his trunk, he ran back downstairs where the Dursleys and Sirius were in a glaring contest. Grinning, Harry said a quick goodbye and dragged Sirius outside, closing the door behind him.
Nothing was said until they climbed in the ministry car and were out of sight of the Dursleys. "I can't believe this. I finally get to live with you! What does the house look like? Will I get my own room? Am I going to see Professor Lupin? Will I get to invi-"
"Slow down!" Sirius laughed trying to calm down the hyper teenager. "You'll see the house when we get there. Of course you'll have your own room. Yes you'll get to see Remus not Professor Lupin. He's not teaching you anymore. And your friends can come over whenever they want! We might even get together for a late birthday for you since your birthday was yesterday right?"
Harry grinned and nodded.
Around the corner the car stopped in front of a big house. Huge pillars sat on either side of the door and rich, light brown bricks framed beautiful, rounded glass windows. On the top floor, a double window looked out. Harry sat with his mouth hanging open.
"Welcome to 'The Mad House' Harry." Sirius smirked and Harry noticed a sign on the gates that read 'The Mad House' on it. Grinning, he grabbed his trunk and ran to the door.
Sirius laughed at his godson's eagerness and unlocked the door. The entrance hall of the house wasn't all that big and had beautiful, marble floors. A staircase went up each side and double-doors were right in between.
"Your room is up this way." Sirius called as Harry ran after him up the left staircase. "The main rooms are through the centre doors but everything else is up here. They passed a few extra bedrooms then Sirius finally stopped at one.
When he opened the door, Harry gasped. It was huge and was done with the Gryffindor gold and crimson with a window that over looked a forest. On the left wall was a full bookshelf with books such as: 'Make Your Own Magical Maps' and 'Human By Day, Animal By Night: A Guide On Becoming An Animagus'.
The right wall had a big, four-poster bed with a night stand a lamp. The door had a full-length mirror on it and there were Qudditch posters everywhere. Harry ran over to the bed and belly flopped on it, grinning.
"So. does this mean you like it?" Sirius asked with a raised eyebrow. Harry jumped off the bed and ran over to his godfather, giving him a big hug.
"Yes yes yes! I love it Sirius! Thank-you!" Sirius laughed at him then sighed.
"Well. Glad that you like it but I've got some work to do for Dumbledor so I'll be in the study if you need me. If you can't find it just ask a painting or something. It'll be locked so you'll know which one it is. It won't be hard for you guess the password. Be down in the dinning room for supper at five. See ya." He ruffed Harry's hair and started back downstairs.
Harry sighed and flopped back onto the bed. Deciding to go exploring he got up again and travelled down the halls and downstairs.
Through the double-doors he found a large ballroom with lots of doors. There was a huge kitchen with house-elves, a library (both that would make Hermione go mad), a casual and large dinning room, a muggle and wizard living room (muggle with a T.V., V.C.R., ect. Wizard with gobstones, wizarding-wireless ect.), and an exercise room with a Treadmill, Weights, and other machines.
On his way back his room Harry took the right staircase and on his way he saw a door to a very dark room. Cautiously opening the door and flicking on the lights, Harry saw a bunch of old and dusty boxes.
They were all labelled differently with things such as: Hogwarts Year 1-7, L/J Wedding and Maurderers. But in the far back corner was a big, dark blue box with stars on it that wasn't labelled. Harry carefully lifted off the lid. Inside were piles of newspaper clippings.
Harry shuffled through them and saw that most were articles on Harry and his parent's death. There were articles about a Death Eater couple that were Sirius' parents that went to Azkaban. And last were papers about Sirius going to Azkaban and Sirius' escape and trial.
At the very bottom of the box was a bowl filled with a silvery liquid. Harry recognized it from somewhere, and then it hit him. Sirius had a pensive. As he looked into it a scene gradually formed. It was Sirius and Harry's mother in the living room of the Potter's Godric's Hollow home.
Harry touched the surface and was immediately pulled into the scene. They were laughing and talking. He could tell that the two of them were drunk. After a long conversation the two young adults started kissing.
Harry's mouth dropped open as the kiss deepened. Tongues darted in and out of the two mouths. They both moaned and clothes were soon stripped off. They fell onto the couch and eventually Lily was screaming Harry's godfather's name. He withdrew himself from the pensive.
But Harry wanted to know what happened and so, against his better judgement, he went back in. This looked like it was a few months later. His mother's stomach was large with him and Sirius stood in front of her.
"Sirius, I have to tell something that you can't tell anyone else. Promise? You can't even tell Dumbledor and especially not James." Sirius, looking confused, nodded. "Well," she hesitated.
"Don't worry Lils. You can tell me." Sirius put a hand on her shoulder.
Lily cleared her throat, "Well, the things is, this baby isn't James'." She stopped and looked into Sirius' stunned face, "It's yours."
