A/N: Thank you to my ONLY reviewer! Much love for that! And, I have started to get back to working on Knowing the Future, so hopefully this chapter actually makes it.
Chapter 2Harry's head snapped back to hers and asked, "Lupin?"
She smiled, and said, "Yes...Lupin,"
Harry nodded, with wide eyes, "So...are you his sister?"
She looked at him with a mischievous glint in her eyes, "Who's sister?"
"Lupins," said Harry, knowing that that would not be how her name was Lupin. She had a wedding ring on and she was pregnant for gods sake.
"No," she said with another smile. "I'm his wife."
Harry nodded, his eyes still wide, and said, "So...," he pointed to her belly. "That's his?"
She laughed really hard. "Yes," she said as she rubbed her swollen belly with one hand. "This is his."
Harry nodded again and said, "How come I wasn't invited to the wedding?"
She looked at him and said, "Because you weren't born yet. Remus and I have been married for sixteen years."
"Oh," he said, "So...how come he never told me he was married before?"
She sighed and said, "Because Dumbledore asked him not to."
"Why?"
"I don't know...that's just what he wanted I guess. And we both know that Dumbledore always has his reasons." She said, with half a laugh.
Harry nodded again. "Do you know what it's gonna be yet?"
It took her a minute to realize he was talking about the baby. "Oh," she said, smiling again. "A boy. Remus and I have decided to name him Adam."
Harry nodded, and said in a whisper to himself, "Adam Lupin," then he looked at her and said, "It sounds nice."
"I thought so too." She said.
The rest of the trip was pretty uneventful. About half an hour later, they were pulling up in front of a house, that Harry knew to be one of the houses that Grimmauld Place squeezed in between.
"You know what to do...right?" she asked.
"Yes," said Harry. "What about my stuff?"
"Oh, we'll have someone come out and get them."
Once Grimmauld Place appeared, they walked in through door, somehow managing to not wake Mrs. Black's portrait.
Just then, Sirius came down the steps and gave Harry a giant hug. "Finally," he said, "I thought you would never get here."
"So," began Sirius after all the greetings were over. "How have you been?"
"Fine," said Harry. "You?"
"Good," he replied.
And, once Mira had left the room, Harry asked Sirius in a whisper, "How come neither you or Lupin told me about her?"
Sirius laughed and said, "Don't you get mad at me for not telling you about her. There's plenty of people I haven't told you about that you should be mad about." Sirius said, almost nervously Harry noted.
"Like who?" Harry asked suspiciously.
"You'll find out soon enough." Said Sirius.
As Sirius said this, there was a commotion upstairs. A few seconds later, a little girl, probably no more than three came down stairs with a pink blanket trailing behind her. While she was coming down the stairs, Mira came through the kitchen door and watched the little girl come down the stairs.
The girl was dark skinned with blackish brownish hair, that was done in pigtails. When she had reached the last step, she walked over to Mira and put her hands up in the air, obviously telling Mira that she wanted to be picked up. Mira obliged her and asked, "What's wrong?".
"Sissy won't pway wif me." She said.
"Well why won't she play with you?" said Mira.
"Betause she be mean to me!" replied the girl.
"Well, I'm sure that she has some good reason why she won't play with you."
"Nuh-uh! She don't want to pway wif me." Said the girl, rubbing her eyes.
Mira saw Harry watching the scene with curious eyes. She looked down at the little girl in her arms and said, "Raye, this is Harry," while pointing to him. "Harry...this is my daughter Rachelle."
"But I wike to be cawwed Raye," said the girl.
"Your daughter?" asked Harry. "So, she'd be Lupins too."
Mira smiled again and nodded her head. "Yes."
"I am Woopin!" said Raye.
"Yes, you are a Lupin," said Mira, tickling her gently.
Raye laughed a high-pitched laugh, and told Mira to "Stop it,"
Mira smiled and looked at Sirius, then looked back at her daughter. "You know Raye," she said, "I bet Uncle Sirius will play with you."
Raye looked at Sirius excitedly and said, "Yes! Uncle Siwis! Wiw you do doggy fer me?" asked Raye, with a smile.
Sirius chuckled and looked at Harry's questioning glance. He then looked at Mira curiously. "Did you tell him?" he asked her.
"No," she said, shaking her head.
Harry wondered silently what they were talking about. Then, Sirius looked at him again and said, "Mira is my sister, Harry. That's why I am Uncle Sirius."
"But!" said Harry. All this new information was getting to be a bit too much for him. "You told me that you had a brother. You never told me you had a sister!"
"Harry," said Mira, "remember in the car when I told you why Remus couldn't tell you about me? I think that's exactly why Sirius didn't tell you about me."
Harry nodded, pinching the bridge of his nose, as if he were getting a headache. He looked at Sirius then at Mira, then back to Sirius, and then back to Mira. He noticed that there were similarities between them. "I just figured that when you said that you and Lupin were married, that it meant that you were the same age." Said Harry.
"Oh," she said, "we are. Sirius and I are twins."
"I'm older though!" Sirius said.
Mira rolled her eyes at her brother. "Only by about 3 minutes."
"But I'm still older than you!"
Mira rolled her eyes again, but laughed.
"Siwis...wiw you pway wif me now?" asked Raye.
Sirius sighed then said, "Yes," he smiled at Harry, "the demands of being popular!"
Harry laughed then stood awkwardly with Mira, after Sirius and Raye had went back upstairs. "So, do you have any more kids I should know about?"
Mira laughed and said, "I have one more daughter."
Harry nodded and said, "How old is she?"
"She's just about a month younger than you,"
Harry's eyes widened. "Really?"
"Yes,"
"So how come she doesn't go to Hogwarts? She is a witch, right?" asked Harry. "You are a witch...right?"
"Yes, I am a witch, and yes, so is she."
"So, why doesn't she go to Hogwarts?"
"Again...it was because Dumbledore didn't want you to know about me yet." She said and then she sighed. "She was home-schooled by me."
"Oh,"
"I think you would like her." Said Mira. "She's upstairs right now. Come on," she said, taking his arm, "I'll introduce you. I'm sure you would have more fun with her than me."
Once they were upstairs, they turned right, down a hallway and stopped at a door. Mira knocked on the door, and opened it and went inside without waiting for an answer.
When Harry walked in he saw Lupin sitting on a chair next to a bed with a girl laying down on her stomach, writing things on a piece of parchment. Harry recognized the book beside her as their current defense against the dark arts book.
Lupin smiled at them as they came in. "Hello Harry," he said with a smile. Mira went over to him and kissed him on the cheek. Harry stayed awkwardly where he was.
"How's the studying going?" asked Mira.
"Good," she really understands it better than I expected." Replied Lupin.
"So, how have you been Harry?"
"Umm, fine." He said, "You?"
"Good," he said.
Mira smiled at him and pointed to the girl laying on the bed, who was looking at him curiously, and she said, "Harry...this is our daughter Chara. Chara...this is Harry."
"Hi," she said with a smile. Harry noticed that she looked like her father, while Raye looked like her mother. She had Lupins brown hair and face, but she had her mothers body. Harry would bet, that if she stood up, her and her mother would be the same height.
"Hi," he said back. "What are you working on?"
"Defense against the dark arts," said Lupin. "Chara will be attending Hogwarts this year, so I'm giving her a little briefing."
"Oh," said Harry.
Remus noticed the awkward silence and decided to break it. "Harry, Chara plays quidditch."
Harry's head snapped to Chara's. His face broke out in a grin. "You do?" he asked excitedly.
Chara nodded, smiling also. "I take it you do as well."
"Yes," said Harry. "What position do you play?"
"Chaser," she said, "you?"
"Seeker,"
"Oh,"
"Are you any good?" asked Harry.
"She's brilliant," said Remus.
Chara flushed at her fathers statement. "I'm not that good."
"Yes you are!" said her mother. "You and Harry should play some time. You could ask the Weasley's as well...then you could play an actual match.
Harry nodded, grinning. "I would like that."
"I would too," said Chara.
Mira smiled discreetly at her husband, who smiled back.
A/N: Sorry for ending it here. I just didn't want to get into anything else right now. I'm saving it for the next chapter. This is 5 ½ pages, so I did improve! And, if you don't understand the baby talk in the beginning...let me know and I'll try to decipher it for you! It will get better in a few chapters I promise! Please Review!
