A/N: Thanks every one for the great reviews! I really appreciate it!
Chapter Ten:
Harry sat in the dark bedroom staring at his photo album. Ron was snoring lightly in the bed beside.
Harry couldn't stop looking at the picture on the seventh page. Sirius when he was in school with Rowena. Harry had seen the picture a million time but never thought about the girl in the picture. Sirius was in his school uniform with Rowena getting a piggy back. They were smiling and laughing, they we under the weeping willow on the edge of the lake, it was gone now. Sirius stumbled and they landed in a heap on the ground. Harry could tell they were laughing hard.
He put his head back until it was resting on his head board. He couldn't believe it. He was never going to see Sirius every again. He looked at the picture. They were in love. He could tell. The way they looked at each other. She was never going to see him every again. He looked at the door. If Dumbledore had given him to Sirius and Rowena, Sirius would have never almost killed Wormtail and he wouldn't be dead, they would have been a family. His life was filled with pain and torment because of Dumbledore. All because of him.
"Why don't we go to my house?"
"Because I want you to meet my folks." Lily dragged Rowena closer to front door of her home.
It was classic suburbia of London duplex. It looked cozy but……perfect.
"I thought your sister didn't like…ya know magic." She doesn't but my parents are dying to meet the girl I am moving in with this summer.
On the summer before seventh year Rowena and Lily had found a perfect apartment in Diagon Alley and decided to move in together. It was going to be perfect, Lily could get away from her sister and Rowena could get away from her smothering mother.
"Mum, Dad, this if Rowena Hopkirk, my best friend in the whole world." Rowena smiled shyly and waved at the two muggles.
Lily's father was tall and balding, he had bright red hair like Lily, he had a huge mustache and a bright face, her mother had long brown hair that was pulled into a tight bun at the back of her head. The welcomes were warm until Petunia came down the stairs.
"Oh, no! You aren't letting more freaks into the house are you?" Rowena looked the girl up and down. She was tall and gangly with a face like a horse.
For the most part the summer was great. Lily and Rowena stayed up late talking and trying on different muggle clothes that they had bought with Lily's mum. Petunia kept making snide remarks but Lily and Rowena always got their own back. Since they were sixteen years they could practice magic they would levitate things in Petunia's room. They didn't get in trouble from the Ministry because Lily's family were on the safe list. Safe meaning they could practice magic in from of they because they already knew of the existent of magic.
Lily and Rowena sat in the back yard with new bikinis on. Lily's was white and Rowena's was bright orange.
Petunia walked in the back yard, Lily and Rowena both sat up. Petunia was followed by a short obese boy who looked like he was trying to grow a mustache but in reality it just looked like he hadn't wiped his face after eating ice cream.
"Oh, to are really disgusting. Not only will you stay indoor's but you are practically naked!" Petunia's face shriveled as she looked at them. "Vernon don't look at them. Vernon!" Vernon had been staring at the two girls with his mouth open.
"Oh well, I guess you two wouldn't know how to behave in front of boys, like you could ever get boyfriends."
At that precise moment there were two small pops and Sirius Black and James Potter appearated in the back yard. Vernon screamed and dived behind Petunia. Petunia stood with her mouth open with a terror on her face. The boys had their backs to Petunia and Vernon and hadn't noticed.
"WOW! James do we know how to pick 'em or what?" Sirius pretended to stumble back before he leaned over and gave Rowena a very passionate kiss. James copied once the boys stepped back Lily shifted to the side a little to see Petunia, "You were saying?"
Petunia scowled and walked into the house closely followed with a shivering Vernon, Sirius and James spun around to see the two other teenagers walk into the house.
"Opps." James said.
"Don't worry, you can do magic in front of her, him we are not to sure about." Rowena said.
"Who Vernon? Oh he's fine mum and Dad sat him down and informed the Ministry about how he was close to the situation yada yada yada."
"By the way guys could you look better?" Both the boys were wearing lose jeans, Sirius was wearing a white tank top and a leather jacket, James was wearing a lose cashmere sweater. Lily beamed at him. "I didn't think you guys would show. I mean it is a muggle thing." The girls had been invited to a dance and instantly wanted to bring the boys. "Come on James, I want you to meet my parents." Lily grabbed James's hand and dragged him into the house.
Sirius flew onto the other lawn chair and smiled at Rowena. "You are so gorgeous."
"You have prefect sense of timing." She smiled at her boyfriend as her pretended to tan.
Rowena lay in her bed running the memory again in her head. She got up and looked out the window.
"Sirius come back to me…." Her eyes filled with tears.
