((Sorry so short! But just a kind of filler chappie!))
Sirius paced up and down the pier anxiously, his mind in a crazy, mixed-up frenzy.
'Will you stop that?' Remus asked wearily from the bench he was lazing on 'it's making me dizzy'
'This is huge, Remus!' Sirius said as he continued pacing 'I've been looking for him for five years! Five years!'
'I know!' Remus snapped 'Ever since you got out of Azkaban you've dragged me after every possible lead! However improbable! And this is my last time, Sirius! You can't spend your whole life chasing something that's not there!'
Sirius stopped abruptly ' I won't stop until I find my Godson!'
'He's dead, Sirius! The entire Order excepted it when Dumbledore called off the search!'
'HE'S NOT-'
'Uh...Dude?'
Sirius spun around to see the blue-haired boy and his friends standing there, the boy had an uncertain look on his face...and a scar on his forehead.
Sirius' eyes widened and he pointed a shaky hand at the boy's forehead 'W-where did you get that?'
Remus followed his friend's gaze and gasped 'Harry?' he asked astonished.
Harry took a step back 'Yeah? Who wants to know?'
The other boys readied themselves for a fight 'how the hell do you know his name?'
'I'm his Godfather'
Harry snorted 'what are you on?'
'If you are really Harry James Potter, then I'm your Godfather'
'Bullshit' Zach said 'Harry's been on his own since he got shipped off to the Orphanage here'
'Orphanage?' Remus asked 'what orphanage?'
'St Thomas' home for boys' Harry supplied dully
'Girls more like' Seth muttered earning him a smack across the head from the former residents, Harry and Zach.
'So you live there?'
'What's it to ya?' Lee asked 'ya obviously been puffing a bit of weed'
'Couldn't hurt to tell me, could it? What if I am your Godfather? Don't you want to know where you came from?'
'I don't want to know about the fuckers who dumped me in that hellhole' Harry said fiercely 'they can go jump off a bridge for all I care'
'Your parents were good people' said Remus 'They died, it's not like they could control were you ended up, but he' Remus jerked his head at Sirius 'has dragged me around looking for you for five years and like hell we're letting you leave again!'
Harry looked touched by this, but his it behind his fierce, defensive look again after a few seconds ' I'll tell you, but only what I want to tell, got it?'
Sirius nodded 'Go ahead then'
'See, I meet my man Lee, here, up at St Thomas' after my relatives or who ever shipped my three year old ass outta the country' Harry explained
'And me and Seth' Zach continued 'Busted them out of there when they were eight, lived here and there ever since, hitching rides-'
'With or without permission' added Seth ' held onto the back of a Ute from here to California once, until the driver noticed'
'But we always end up back home' Harry finished gazing fondly at the now deserted boardwalk.
'Where are you staying now?' Remus asked.
Shrugging Harry motioned his hand to the shadowy beach 'Temporarily without home'
'What!' Sirius exclaimed 'You're sleeping on a beach!'
'Yup'
'You are going to stay with us' Sirius said firmly.
'How do we know that your not going to kill us and sell our bodies to lonely truckers who will then perform sexual acts on our cold, dead bodies?'
'Guess you don't' Remus admitted 'but a hotel is better then a beach isn't it?'
'Come on, boys!' Seth whined 'Think of those fluffy pillows, warm bed, warm shower-'
'All right, all right, stop! Your giving Zach a stiffy'
'Shut up, Lee!'
'Wanna scrap, aye?'
'Bring it, you mother fucka'
'Oi! Oi!' Harry yelled 'Cool it, ladies!'
'So yes?' Sirius asked hopefully
'As long as there are no deals with truckers or you are or ever have been a trucker'
'I don't think I've ever actually met a trucker' Remus said thoughtfully as the six walked off down the pier.
'Your lucky' Lee said darkly.
'Yeah, they get pissed just because you hitch a ride on their freezer-van and light a fire cause your freezing bits off that you need for certain things...'
'Not that you'll ever need them, Harry'
'Seth!'
