Everyone jumped. 'How long have you been there?'

'How did you get out?'

'Long enough. If you lock the door from trying to stop me from getting out then try to lock the window as well.'

'You always was a half thinker.' Snape said.

'Shut up.'

'I will if you do.'

'You see what I have to deal with? I'm just leaving one to go to another. I don't think I have the strength.'

'I've known them both since I was 11. You just have to have the strength. Anyway,' eyeing Snape suspiciously, 'what are you doing here?'

'I.'

'He came here to deliver a letter about your trip from Dumbledore, didn't you Professor?' Harry cut in.

'Wha.er yes I did, Potter. I hope you have done all your homework especially Potions. If you haven't I'll take 100 points away from Gryffindor and I'll give you 5 detentions.' Snape said sternly to Harry to make it look like there was nothing going on.

'Where's the letter then?' Remus said trying to catch them out.

'It crumpled up after Sirius had read it so no one else could get there hands on it.' Harry cut in otherwise he knew that no one would answer and Remus would suspect something. He didn't know why but he didn't want to tell Remus just yet. He thought it might be because he was a bit overwhelmed with Snape becoming his Uncle in less than 24 hours.

'Quit the act guys. Whatever it is just tell me. I won't be cross or anything. Obviously it's something to do with him,' pointing at Snape, 'and well if Harry is here than obviously it has to do with him.'

'What are you on about, Remus?' Sirius said.

'Are you really staying at the Dursley's Harry?'

'Er.,' Harry didn't know what to say. What was the point in lying to him? 'No.'

'Thought as much. Your going to stay him Snape, you uncle?'

Sirius and Snape gasped. Harry was shocked to know he knew but there was so much other people knew about him he didn't know he wasn't too surprised.

'How did you.'

'know? I was never up to your standard cleverness wise but I had some intelligence. I realized that something was going on between them straight away. They met every so often and when James' dad had a car accident Snape came rushing to James. I could tell then. I had to be sure though. One time, when we had made the marauders' map, I was looking for someone when I saw Snape and James talking. I used the marauders privileges to listen into the conversation. That told me everything I needed to know. I knew that James would have told you but I knew you wouldn't tell me. I never said anything, I just thought it was better leaving you to believe I didn't know what was going on.'

Everyone looked startled. Remus just walked out of the room promising not to come in again.

'So, you guys gonna step out of your trances or what? Would you like me to go along with Remus instead?'

That seemed to do it. They both looked at Harry.

'Sorry, I had no idea.' Sirius apologized quietly.

'It's fine. So when do we leave?' Looking towards Snape.

'As soon as you want. I thought maybe I should take your stuff then come back so you can say goodbye to Lupin and Black.'

'Okay. That sounds good.'

Snape picked up Harry's things took a pinch of floo powder from a pot by the fire, threw it into the fire and said, 'Snape Mansion.'

Snape whirled away so Harry turned to Sirius and Remus. 'Well goodbye.' Harry said. He didn't know quite what to say. He wouldn't see them for two months.

'Sounds like your not going to miss us.' Remus said playfully.

'Well I mean, why should I, I'll be having so much fun with Snape.'

'Fine then don't. We don't care.'

'Of course you do. Who wouldn't want me to miss them?'

'Your head's inflating to the size of a hot air balloon.'

'Smaller that yours.' 'Guys, guys we know that you both think your brilliant but we know that I am brilliant.'

'Shut up you arrogant hog.' Remus chortled.

'Have a nice trip, whatever your doing. Oh and don't die. I don't want to be with him for the rest of my life.'

'We will and have a nice time with "uncle" Snape.'

'Shut up. Well I better make sure I haven't left anything.'

'Harry' Sirius said.

'Yup.'

'Give me a hug will ya? I will miss you.'

'Me too.' And they embraced.

Then Harry hugged Remus but for not as long as he had with Sirius.

Harry thought that he might cry so he went upstairs to check that he hadn't left something. He returned after Snape had.

'Bye.'

'Bye Harry.'

'See ya.'

'You go first.'

Harry look a pinch of floo powder, threw into the fire, took one last glance at Sirius who had tears formed in his eyes as had Harry then shouted out 'Snape mansion.'

He whirled around trying to keep his arms in. When he got there, he wiped the tears that had formed, stepped out of the fire and looked around. It wasn't black. Actually, the living room was cream. Harry thought this might be because Harry was coming he had changed it. Later, he would find out it had been like that since he Snape had bought it five years ago.
