Disclaimer: Nope don't own Harry Potter or any of the other characters not even 5 yr old Tom or else I'd adopted him myself.

A/N: as you peeps should know this is a challenge from phoenix tears type 6.

Phoenix Tears Type 6- Thanks! I have some ideas about what to do but I dunno.

Chapter 3:

Luckily for Harry he found a job that day, a job at a muggle bookstore that was near by the house. He would be working weekdays for 7am-1pm then go back to the Dursely's do whatever chores and then go to bed to start over again. The good thing about his work was he could bring Tom with him. Harry had already guessed that Tom was a wizard from the magic radiating off the boy.

That night he had a peaceful sleep with Tom curled up in his arms like he had been there all his life.

The next morning was a Tuesday and the first day of his new job. He got ready, got Tom ready, they ate breakfast and was soon walking to the bookstore.

Tom was barely awake as they walked so Harry had to watch carefully that he didn't trip or get hurt.

At the bookstore Harry was a clerk and Tom just sat down reading a book, or trying.

It was only when Harry saw Tom reading the book did he remember that he needed to owl Ron, Hermione, Sirius, and Professor Dumbledor about Tom. He was already planning to bring Tom with him to school.

After work when they got to the Dursley's Harry did all his chores in record time and was soon in his room with parchment and quill.

Tom stood next to him reading over his shoulder as he wrote:

Dear Professor Dumbledor,

All my nightmares that I've been having this past summer have stopped completely. Why I do not know. Well I guess I should tell you the real reason I'm writing this letter, the morning following the night my nightmares halted a little boy named Tom was at the Dursley's doorstep and I was wondering if I could take him with me to Hogwarts. He is a wizard magic radiates off him, I can feel it. I cannot leave him with the Dursely's. Thank you for hearing me out.

Harry Potter

Harry reread the letter then looked at Tom "What do you think?" he asked the five year old.

Tom giggled and nodded. Harry sighed "Now, for the others"

Harry decided to do Sirius first.

Dear Sirius,

I just thought I ought to write to you telling you that my nightmares have stopped and I found a little boy named Tom on my doorstep. He is now living with me, and , hopefully, coming with me to Hogwarts. That's the highlight of my summer, how about you? Are you okay? I hope you are and I send you my love.

Your beloved godson,

Harry

The rest of the letters were more or less the same, with the exception of the end. Harry tied the letters to Hedwig and told her who they were for. She hooted softly before flying off.

After the letters they went to bed with Harry rocking Tom to sleep.
