The order had immediatly apparted to St. Mungo's as soon as the healers had taken Harry.
"Can I help you" the nurse asked
"Harry Potter" Sirius mumbled out of breath
"1st floor" she said "the ICU"
They all rushed to the ICU and waited in the waiting room, all giving silent prayers that Harry would be ok.
"Are you ok" Remus asked Sirus
"No" Sirius mumbled "I was right there I should have done something"
"You were tied to a chair" Remus said
"So" Sirius mumbled rubbing his temples
"Are you here for Harry Potter" A healer asked
"yes" Sirius said jumping to his feet
"He had a lot of internal bleeding but that is being fixed as we speak" she said "and he had a minor concussion and 2 broken ribs whick have been mended"
"He should be able to leave sometime next week"
"he's gone to be ok" Remus asked
"fine" she said with a smile
"thank you" Sirius said as the healer nodded
"We should go" Remus said "We'll see him tomorrow"
Sirius hesitated slightly but nodded
That night was very restless for the wizarding world.
Sirius and Remus were up at the crack of dawn the next morning and very anxious to see Harry.
"Can we go now" Sirius snapped at Remus
"Hold on Padfoot" Lupin said trying to fix his shirt
"You guys are so immature"Draco said from the bedroom door "He isn't going anywhere"
"So" Sirius snapped "He's been gone forever"
"He was gone a week and a half" Draco said with a smile
"Shutup" Sirius responed
Draco laughed as he turned to leave
"you're coming with us" Remus said
Draco froze in his tracks "No I'm not" Draco said horrified
"I'm the boss and I say you are" Remus said
"you tell him Moony" Sirius hollered
"why" Draco said
"because I don't want to leave you alone" Remus said
"why"he asked again
"enough with the questions come on" Remus said as Sirius grabbed Draco's arm and drug him to the fireplace
"Let's floo" Sirius said
"Make him let go of me" Draco begged Lupin
Lupin grinned as he grabbed a pinch of floo powder "St. Mungos" he yelled as the flames swept the 3 away
"Hello" Harry's healer said as she saw them "Here to see Harry"
Sirius nodded nervously
the healer smiled "He woke up about 15 minutes ago" she said "you can go on in"
Sirius carefully swung open the door to Harry's room.
Harry was sitting up in bed staring out the window
"Harry" Sirius whispered
Harry ignored him "I'm sorry" Sirius said
Harry turned his head towards Sirius "Sorry for what" Harry asked
"I'm not sure" he said "whatever you hate me for"
"why's he here" Harry asked looking at Draco
"He's staying with us" Remus said
"I wasn't asking you" Harry said bitterly to Remus as he turned back towards Sirius
"Why's he staying with you" Harry asked
"my father disowned me after i refused to become a death eater" Draco snapped
"what a tragedy" Harry said, his voice dripping with sarcasm
Draco glared at him
"So why are you all here" Harry asked
"We wanted to see you" Sirius whispered
"How do I know you're not lying about that" Harry asked "You lie about everything else"
"Harry" Remus started but Harry interupted him
"If I hadn't found out that day would you have told me at all" Harry asked
"Yes" Sirius said "I..we wanted to"
Harry nodded "that's always the excuse" he muttered
"Will you grow up already" Draco snapped "He's all you've got so you better get over it fast"
"I didn't need anyone before and I don't need anyone now" Harry whispered
"everybody needs somebody" Draco said "thats why I'm being civil to Sirius and Remus" he said "I don't like to admit that I need help but I do"
Draco quickly turned and left leaving Harry with Sirius and Remus to ponder what he had just said.
"I'm going to go find Draco" Remus said
"ok Moony" Sirius whispered
Sirius turned his attention back to Harry who was rubbing his wrist softly.
"Are you gone to talk to me" Sirius asked
"I guess I have to don't I" Harry said
Sirius smiled "I should have been there Harry" He whispered
"Been where" Harry asked
"With you" Sirius said "That's my job as your godfather"
"You're not obligated to be with me" Harry whispered
"No I don't have to be obligated" Sirius said "but I do want to be with you"
"why" Harry asked
"Because I love you" Sirius whispered
"Really" Harry asked uncertain what his ears had heard
"Yes" Sirius said "I have ever since the day you were born and I should have been around to tell you that everyday"
"It doesn't bug me that you weren't there" Harry said "I understand but it's just that you left when I was starting to get used to you always being around" He whispered "It was nice having someone who cared"
"I still care" Sirius said
"So you didn't get any injuries from your capture" Harry asked changing the subject
"Just a lot of emotional damage" Sirius said with a smile "does this mean you forgive me"he asked
"Maybe" Harry said "but don't think that makes everything all better cuz nothing ever gets better"
Sirius nodded "Yes it does"
Harry shook his head "you don't know what you're talking about"he said "wait did the ministry let you go" Harry asked realizing that he had been allowed in the hospital in his human form
"yes they did" Sirius said with a grin "and now I can ask you something I've always wanted to ask you"
"I will not marry you" Harry said with a grin
"Well you aren't you a little comedian" Sirius said ruffling Harry's hair
"That's the question"Harry asked
"no"Sirius replied "Harry I'd like you to come and live with me"
"Well I don't know" Harry said with a small smile "being in a house with you 24/7 sounds scary"
Sirius glared playfully at him "That's a yes"
"Yes" Harry answered
Sirius's smile widened "Right on"he said
"Sirius" Harry said seriously "Grow up" he said laughing
Sirius stuck out his tongue "make me"
"excuse me" A nurse said from the door "Visiting hours are over and we have to change Harry's bandages"
Sirius nodded "I'll be back" Sirius said as he gave Harry a hug before leaving
Both of them were in the best moods ever.
"Harry's coming home today" Sirius sang at the top of his lungs the next morning. He was so excited when he had went to see Harry later that night and they had told him Harry could go home.
"Everything has to be perfect" Sirius said as he fixed the couch coushins
Lupin smiled seeing his friend this happy "well Padfoot I'm gonna go"Remus said "I'm meeting Tonks for dinner"
Sirius grinned "Someone's in love" Sirius said as Draco laughed
Remus's face became very red and he muttered something about a big dumb dog
"well bye Professor"Draco said as he sat down with his bowl of cereal
"Bye Draco" Lupin said as he left
"I have to go get Harry" Sirius said
"Have fun"Draco said with a full mouth
Sirius smiled as he took the cereal from Draco
"you're coming with me" He said as he dumped the cereal out
"I was eating" Draco said
"I'll get you something on the way back" Sirius said as he pulled Draco to his feet
Draco groaned as once again he was forced to go to St.Mungo's
It was a day well spent with Sirius taking the boys out to eat and then going to Diagon alley to get them both new quiditch supplies. The 3 really bonded that day.
