Hi!! Well here I am again after much consideration I have decided to carry
on with this story. I would like to thank my wonderful reviews, especially
Electrablack, blackraven13 and a.person (
I've been asked what year this is set in, personally I'm not sure. I love Sirius myself and want him to be there but I'm not sure. I think that for now it'll be set in Harry's summer between his 4th and 5th year. Meaning that Sirius may enter the story at some point!
Can't be bothered to write a disclaimer go look at my first chapter...ok done that? ... Good!
Now on with the story...
Harry slept the rest of the night peacefully unlike Remus who was up ever other hour or so to check on Harry.
Remus knew he would have to let Harry go. The ministry wouldn't let him keep Harry that was for certain and he couldn't stay at Mrs Figgs because she was a squib.
He'd just have to take him back to Hogwarts. He knew Harry wouldn't like staying there but it was really the only option at times like these. Voldermort was still after Harry and he needed to be somewhere protected.
He decided to talk to Harry about it in the morning. Hoping that Harry would agree then they could be off by the evening. He knew the longer he spent here the more dangerous it would be for Harry, now that he was out of his relatives house the wards weren't as strong, but thankfully still in place because of the closeness to the Dursley's house from Mrs Figgs.

Harry woke up the next day around 8:00. Remus was already up getting breakfast ready. Harry made his way downstairs and quietly sat down giving Remus a great shock when he turned around to find Harry just sitting there staring at him.
After he recovered he started to talk to Harry.
"Do you want anything?"
"Maybe just a piece of toast please, I'm not that hungry" Harry replied.
Remus knew Harry needed to eat more than that but let it slide this time. He needed Harry on his side if he was going to get him to come to Hogwarts without an argument.
"Harry" Remus started "we need to talk" Harry looked up but said nothing, so Remus just carried on "You can't stay here. I'm sorry but its not safe, you need to go to Hogwarts" Harry started to choke on the piece of toast he was eating.
"What! You cant, I want to stay here with you, please!" Harry pleaded "I love Hogwarts don't get me wrong its just I need some time alone, away from everything." Harry looked across at Remus "please"
"Harry we have to let people know about the abuse, like Dumbledore and"
"No point" Harry interrupted him. At Remus's shocked look he explained, " He already knows, has since my first year"
"What! You have to be joking; dumbledore would never want to hurt you! He is always looking out for you trying to make places safe and..."
"Don't try to defend him" Harry started angrily "yes he's always wanted the 'best' for me" Remus was very shocked, after last night he thought of Harry as a small fragile child that needed help, obviously he was wrong, in some aspects of that. All he knew now was that Harry still needed help and that he would have to be there to give it to him.
"He's only ever wanted what's best for him" Harry continued, "I have no doubt that he sent Hagrid to collect me for a reason, knowing full well that he would turn me against slytherin, I'm also quite sure that he planned for me to make friend with Ron. I know for a fact that Hagrid was told exactly when to drop me off and also that another person delayed the Weasleys.
I'm not saying that Ron isn't a good friend, because he is, most of the time. It's just that when I think about it if I had been left to my own devices then maybe I might have turned out different, more like the person I feel inside" He paused for a moment before caring on.
"It's just that all my life I have been controlled and I don't think that I can take it anymore. Everyday is just another strain upon the act, which I play. Inside I'm a different person to what everyone sees on the outside." He stopped to look at Remus to see if he understood. He obviously didn't'. "Ok, answer me these three questions, and we'll see how much you know me, be warned theses are quite hard." "Go ahead replied Remus wondering what Harry was going to ask him. "One, what is my favourite colour?" "Red" replied Remus automatically, these weren't hard. "Two, who is the person I most admire?" Remus would of said Dumbledore but due to resent findings he replied, "James Potter" "Finally, what is my favourite hobby" "Quidditch, Harry why are you doing this the questions aren't even hard" "Really? Would you like to know how many you got right" he paused "none!" Remus was shocked; partly that he got them all wrong. It was common knowledge to anyone that these were the correct answers to the question s asked. He was more shocked though to realise that if these answers were wrong then nobody really knew the real Harry and that it was true that Harry's whole life had been an act. "One, my favourite colour is green" Harry started. "Two, I admire Snape" Remus nearly fell off his chair at this statement. "And three, drawing is my favourite hobby" Remus didn't even know that Harry could draw. After a pause. "Do you see what I mean now Remus? Nobody knows the real me, everyone would of answered probably exactly the same as you did." And with that Harry got up and left the room, pushing passed Mrs Figg on the way to his bedroom.
"What's wrong with Harry?" Mrs fig asked Remus s she entered the kitchen.
Well that's it peoples!! More to come I hope soon, if I can get my lazy butt in gear. Now go on and review, you know you want to (
