Runaway Dogstar

5. Going to fly?

Summerholidays of muggle schools had just began and now Sirius could spend even more time with Gemma. He had now spend whole three weeks living with Gemma and her grandparents. It was like they had taken him as a part of they little family. They had even let Sirius keep his owl, Euros. Sirius was still tying to find his cousin Andromeda, and with that Gemma's both grandparents, expecially her Grandfather, Martin, had been a great help. Both, Violet and Gemma kept calling Sirius their Dogstar. Violet and her husband, Martin, treated him as if he had been their own son or grandson. Violet even kept telling Sirius, how much he remainded her of her own son, who had died about forty years ago. Sirius didn't really like the idea, being look a like of some dead boy, but Gemma tried her best, and explained to him, how her Grandma never spoke about her dead son. So for Sirius everything was great, really. He had home, he had three nice meals for a day, he had soft and warm bed, he had a friend and the most important thing of all: he had a loving and careing family.

It was Monday morning, sun was shining and dew was still glittering on grass in the morning sun. Sirius had just woken up when Gemma came down the hallway, right into Sirius's room, singng. She was wearing her lightblue summerdress and she had a bright smile on her face.

"Gooood morning, my Dogstar!" Gemma greeted Sirius. "Today we are going to fly my Star!"

"Oh, Gem, I love you too, but..." Sirius said smiling helplessly. Gemma was being hyperactiv again.

"Come on, my Dogstar, this the most beatiful morning of the whole summer!" Gemma said and began to drag Sirius away from the bed.

"Uum... Ok. Wait a second! I have to get dressed! And , please, can go to wait outside, thank's!" Sirius took a deep breath after shutting the door. Then he began to get dressed, jeans and a green and blue srtiped t-shirt. Sirius had began to think that muggle clothes were great, really. And now he could always wear them.

**************************************************************************** **************************************************************************** **

When Sirius was ready, he walked out to the hallway to meet Gemma. Who wasn't there.

"Gem, where are you?! Gem?!" Sirius called her, but all he could hear, was music coming from downstairs. He ran to the stairs and called out for Gemma. Still, no aswer.

"Violet, have you seen Gemma?!" he yelled over the music. Downstairs, Violet stopped to think for a moment and then yelled her answer: "No, my darling, I haven't seen her in the whole day!"

"Oh, well..." Sirius muttered. Gemma had never done this before, so he began to get little worried by now. Sirius ran to Gemma's room, but there was no one, even Nyks was somewhere else.

But then he remembered, Gemma had been talking about flying. Could she possibly be on the roof?? And once again Sirius ran. He found old iron ladder wich led onto the roof. For a while Sirius hesitated, but then sudden fear striked into his mind. Gemma, his fagile Gem, who feared nothing, wanted to fly. What if, what if was going to jump, to fly? And soSirius made his desicion and climbed on the roof.

**************************************************************************** **************************************************************************** **

There he found Gemma, sitting on the rooftop, violet silk cape on her shoulders, knees tucked under her chin. She was talking in soft voice to the sparrows that also were on the roof. And when she turned her head to meet Sirius's gaze, Sirius could see that she was crying, tears srtiping her pale face.

"Oh, Dogstar! I so hope, I was a bird! They are so free! Earth doesn't boun't them, like it bounds us." Gemma told Sirius, sobbing. "Only death can free us from this prison!"

"My beautiful Gem. How could I ever make you understand?" Sirius asked, partly from himself. And moved sitting next to Gemma. After a while he wrapped his left arm aroun her. For a while both of them were silent, then, Sirius had enought courage to say the word that he had wanted to say to Gemma, to his Saving Angel for a long time now. "I love you Gemma. With you, I fear nothing."

Gemma looked at him and in her deep chocolate-brown eyes, were no longer sparkling tears. There Sirius could see only joy and happines. Then Gemma hugged him tightly and whispered into hi ear: "'If you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all world'" (A/N: That was from the book: The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.) Then she kissed Sirius softly on the cheeck saing I love you too, from my whole heart and soul..."

Only sad thought at that sweet moment was: "This is too good to last foever and always." It was thought that kept always from that moment gnawing Sirius's mind.
