Chapter ten: JUST FOR THE HELL OF IT. MEET THE DURSLEYS!!!
Harry sat petted Hedwig. She looked at him saddly.
"Don't worry Hedwig. Were going to stay here. No more nasty people wanting to hurt you." Harry said.
She flapped her wings a few times to tell him that she understood, and was as happy about it as Harry was.
Just then the door opened and Mrs. Weasley walked in.
"How are you doing dear?" she asked, the concern in her voice unmasked.
"I'm doing fine actually," Harry said, standing up.
"I'm glad, what happened the other day was a shock for us all, but Remus seems to be get well now. Must have been a load on his mind, being your father and not telling you. Him and Arthur were talking all morning about it, while you were sleeping."
"Really?" Harry asked, taking the clean clothes she had brought for him.
"Yes, Remus was quite glad to take advise from him on parenting."
Harry was going to laugh at the thought but seeing Mrs. Weasley looking so proudly about her husband, he decided against it and decided it would be best to let the facts rest.
"Oh, by the way Harry, Remus is down stairs already ready to go when you are."
"Thanks." Harry said, he set the clothes down and left the room with Mrs. Weasley for downstairs.
When they arrived in the kitchen they saw Lupin sitting beside Mr. Weasley who was telling him the trials of potty training.
"Arthur!" Mrs. Weasley cried, rushing over and covering his mouth so he couldn't say the last bit.
Lupin blinked for a minute then started to laugh.
"Hello." Harry said.
Ron and Hermione turned to him from there game of muggle chess.
"Hello Harry," they said together.
"Hermiones just showing me the differences in muggle chess compared to wizards chess." Ron exclaimed, standing up and streaching.
Hermione just groaned. "He does that every time he beats me."
Harry smirked at Ron who was blushing. It had been almost a month since Ron had told him that he liked Hermione more then a friend. Yet Ron hadn't been able to tell her.
"All ready to go then Harry?"
Harry turned to Lupin who had just addressed him. "Yes."
"Then we should get going don't you think?"
Harry nodded to his 'new father'. "I don't really want to spend that much time there."
"I understand." Lupin said, standing up and walking towards him. "You can dissapat now can you not?"
Harry nodded. He could, though he perferred the old fasion way of a broom.
"All right then. let's get to it." Lupin said.
"Are you sure your going to be able to?" asked Harry, "I mean you just woke up yesterday, will you be able to?"
Lupin nodded. "I have enough strength."
"Okay." Harry said, not at all convinced.
They two of them dissapeared from the house and reappeared infront of number 4 Privet Drive.
"This is it." Harry said, taking a deep breath. "I just want to see the look on aunt Petunia's face when she see's you."
Lupin looked at Harry and smiled weakly. Harry started to walk forward and when he reached the door he paused for a moment. He really didn't want to be coming back here, but he didn't have to stay and this was the only time he could repay them, the way they had him. Looking out of the corner of his eye at his 'father', he knocked on the door.
They waited for a few minutes and when there was no reply. Harry turned around and was going to walk away when the door opened.
"Oh, it's you."
He could tell from the voice who it was.
"Hello Uncle Vernon." he said.
Mr. Dursley didn't force a smile like Harry had, he just pulled him into the house. "I suppose your here to make sure this thing, returns safely." he growled.
"Actually..." Lupin started but was cut off.
"Well, were's that stupid bird and his luggage then?" Vernon looked around.
Harry dusted himself off just as Petunia and Dudley walked to the door.
"Oh your back!" Dudley groaned. "I thought for sure you had been killed this time."
Petunia looked at him in discust. "Where are your things?" she hissed. "Don't think were carrying them in for you."
Lupin looked at the three then at Harry. He felt guilty now for having left Harry to live with them up until then.
Vernon looked at Lupin. "Well, where are his things."
"Actually, his thing's are not coming." Lupin explained.
"Well then." Vernon said, then shut the door leaving Lupin outside looking dully at the door.
*****
Vernon grabbed Harry by his shirt and drug him to his feet.
"Lost your things now?" Vernon asked. "Well don't expect us to give you anything."
"I haven't lost anything!" he cried,tugging his shirt away from his Uncle. "It's at the house I'll be staying at forever."
"You mean were getting rid of you?" Dudley asked.
Harry nodded. Then they heard Petunia scream. They rushed to the kitchen where she was standing with Lupin infront of her.
"Sorry. I decided that since you closed the door.I'd just let myself in." Lupin said shyly.
"Get out! Get out!" Petunia cried, arms flailing in the air.
"Sorry but I can't leave without Harry, and repaying you for taking care of him."
"Why do you care!" Vernon roared. "Your in my house, and I refuse to listen to any of your nonsense."
"Harry who is this filthy, discusting, creature!" Petunia screamed.
Harry nodded to Lupin and grinned.
"This is..."
"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Remus Lupin, and I'm Harry's father."
Aunt Petunia fainted at that moment.
"Your his father!" Vernon cried.
Lupin nodded. "And I just came to pay my respects to you, since you have been looking after him all this time."
Vernon walked up to Remus and grabbed him by his clothes.
"If your his father, why didn't you come and take him off of our hands before!" he cried.
"Because of Voldermort," Harry said suddenly. "It was safer to just stay here."
Vernon glared at Harry then released Lupin.
"WELL." he said, looking down at Petunia who had just woken up and was looking at Remus horrified.
"Remus Lupin!" she shouted. "I know you now. Your the one that inpregnated Lily when I was in the hospital!"
Lupin looked towards Harry saddly. "Yes."
"How dare you come near my family!"
Vernon was looking at Petunia somewhat shocked by what she was defending.
"My sister was crying over you like a little baby when she came home."
"Petunia!" Vernon glared at her.
"Sorry." she said going silent.
"Get out!" Vernon cried at Harry and Lupin. "Both of you."
"With pleasure!" Harry cried, walking back towards the door.
"Nice meeting you." Lupin said, then turned towards Dudley. "The twins send there regards."
Dudley turned green and ran towards the bathroom. Lupin laughed to himself, and he walked out of the house behind Harry.
The door slammed and Harry turned towards Remus laughing.
"Thank you." he said, after he wiped the tears from his eyes.
"Don't thank me Harry. Thank yourself. It's amasing that you could have put up with them for that long. I just hope that you'll be able to put up with me." Lupin replied.
Harry grinned. "I don't think that will be a problem."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*The End....Or is it?*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
George: It just stuck us the other day while on vacation. What if we wrote a real story now that Harry know's Remus is his father. It being Harry's last year at Hogwarts, Voldermort still on the rise. What if someone was setting Harry up for a fall. Ron might even tell Hermione that he really does like her....What do you think? Do any of you reveiwers like our little spoof and want to turn it into another story...(this time with a plot?) If so I'm expecting this story to get fifty reveiws....that's only eleven more! And if we get though's eleven more reveiws then another story will begin.
Fred: For those of you who have reveiwed, and thought this story very unlikly. Like we said before. "it's a spoof, a just for fun story that popped into our minds." So don't get so worked up about Harry looking like Remus.
