When Harry got back down to Sirius, he was waiting by the door, "Shall we be on our way then?" He said
Harry nodded and led the way out of the door.
"You're awfully quiet, Harry." Sirius said after a few minutes of walking.
"Oh... yeah, there's not much to say. Except that I'm really happy I'm living with you." Harry said smiling
Sirius smiled back.
They entered Diagon Alley and passed by lots of little Wizard shops, when they came across the ice cream parlor.
Harry glanced over to it and to his surprise, Ron walked out with two ice cream cones in his hands.
Harry smiled, and then remembered he wasn't friends with Ron anymore, and frowned.
He watched Ron walk over to a near by bench where he saw Hermione sitting. Ron walked over to her, and kissed her. Harry's jaw dropped at Ron gave Hermione an ice cream and sat next to her with his arm around her waist.
Sirius noticed this and walked over to Harry, "I'm guessing Hermione and Ron weren't dating in your old life, Harry?"
"No..." Harry said quietly, still staring at Ron and Hermione.
Sirius smiled, "Harry, just forget about them. We have some shopping to do." He said as he started walking, "Harry?" He said looking back at Harry
"What do you think they'd do if I told them?" Harry said
"Ron and Hermione? Tell them? Well... I don't see why not. They may not believe you, though, Harry." Sirius said
"It's worth getting my best friends back." Harry said as he started walking towards the bench where Ron and Hermione were sitting.
They two looked up to find Harry standing in front of them.
"What do you want?" Ron said
"I need to talk to both of you." Harry said
"And why would you want to talk to us?" Hermione said
"Because." Harry said, "Will you just come here for a second? Please?"
"Fine. This better be good, Potter." Ron said as he got up, took Hermione's hand and followed Harry.
Harry led them to the side of a shop and told them everything that's been going on.
"You don't make any sense, Potter." Ron said
"Will you please call me Harry?" Harry said
"You know, Ron... I remember reading about a wizard that this happened to. Maybe he's telling the truth." Hermione said
"You aren't seriously going to believe this scum bag are you, Hermione?" Ron said
"Look, Ron, I know that I've probably been a huge jerk to you guys ever since we first started Hogwarts, but like I said before... this was not my life! I was best friends with you guys... and I came over here because I didn't want it to change." Harry said, "But I can see that you two don't want to be friends with me so I might as well be on my way." Harry said as he turned around
"Harry, wait!" Hermione said
Harry stopped, "What?" He said as he turned back and looked at his two old friends.
"Ron, seriously. Why can't you believe him?" Hermione said looking up at Ron
"Believe him?! Hermione! Do you seriously believe this? This could be some scam to find out information on something." Ron said
"What would HE need to find out? We have no secrets! Why don't we ask detailed questions about his "old" life to see if he's telling the truth? Maybe he hasn't always been a jerk. That's why he hasn't been a jerk to us lately." Hermione said
"Yeah, Ron... why don't you do that?" Harry said suggestively
Ron sighed angrily, "Fine."
"Great." Harry said, "I'll be right back."
Harry ran back to Sirius and told him that he'll meet him in "Quality Quidditch Supplies" when he's done, and then he went back over to Ron and Hermione.
"Okay... so were your parents well... murdered in your old life?" Ron said
"Yes."
"By... you-know-who?"
"Yes."
"How did we meet?" Ron said
"I saw your family go in platform 9 and ¾ and your mum told me how to do it." Harry said
"Mmk... you said Sirius died... how?" Hermione said
"Well I had a dream that Vol- ... You-Know-Who had taken Sirius to The Department of Mysteries and last time I had a dream that something happened to your dad, Ron, it was true, so I thought this time it was true also. So both of you, Neville, Luna, Ginny, and I went The Department to find that Sirius was not there. However there were tons of death-eaters and we were trapped. So on came Sirius, Lupin, Tonks, and Dumbledore to save us. But Sirius didn't return alive, he fell through an archway and I guess you die when you go through it... I'm not exactly sure." Harry said
"Okay, Ron. I'm convinced." Hermione said
Harry smiled and looked at Ron, he didn't seem convinced
"You're going to believe him that fast?" Ron said
"Yes." Hermione said, "And I think you should too."
Ron sighed, "Oh all right... but if you do anything weird you're going to regret it."
Harry smiled again, "I have to get back to Sirius. I'll talk to you later then..."
"Yeah..." Ron said
Harry met Sirius at Quality Quidditch Supplies and the two of them shopped for a couple of hours. Harry had no idea Sirius had that much money. Sirius bought Harry a new broom polishing kit, a pair of new robes, a new quill, a book called: Quidditch From Around the World, and a larger cage to keep Hedwig in at home.
"Thanks for everything, Sirius!" Harry said as they were on their way back home.
"Not a problem, Harry." Sirius said as they entered the house, "How did everything go with Ron and Hermione?"
"Hermione believed me but it took Ron and little longer, but in the end he gave in." Harry said, "Nothing will ever be the same, though" He said sadly
"Cheer up, Harry. You never know... once you get back to school you may be rejected by Malfoy and Ron and Hermione will have not choice but to accept you." Sirius said happily
"You're probably right..." Harry said, "But then again you may not be."
"Get some sleep, you've had a long day." Sirius said
Harry nodded and went up the stairs to his bedroom.
