Chapter 4: The love of Moony, Padfoot and Prongs Junior

A flailing Harry jolted Sirius awake:

"U-uncle V-Vernon please do not do this! I didn't mean to break the vase! Please Uncle it was an accident!" Harry sobbed incoherently.

"Harry baby! Wake up please! It's me! Its Snuffles come on now!" When there was no sign of Harry waking, Sirius turned swiftly into Padfoot and crawled over to the boy cowering in the corner. He rubbed gently up against the young man's leg to get Harry's attention. When the young boy started Sirius quickly snuffled into his hand.

"Sirius?" Harry whispered before flinging himself into the other's arms. "Oh Sirius I was reliving it. Thank you so much for being here! I don't think I could handle reliving when he read my diary!"

"Oh my dearest Harry. Why don't we talk about it? Tell me what was written in the diary and then talk about what happened, all right?"

"I-in my d-diary I wrote about how I w-was g-g-gay and how much I loved you and R.. oh that matters not!"

"Remus? Harry did you mean Remus? Oh please tell me you did! Harry I love Remus too! I've wanted both of you to be mine since the Shrieking Shack! I knew it the moment I first saw you both again!"

"Y-y-you did? But that was when I first knew too!"

"Me too." Came a quiet voice from the door. "Do you both really love me? Is it possible for you to love a disgusting old werewolf like me?"

"Stop it Remus! You are nothing of the sort! And it is I who is disgusting! Twelve years in Azkaban have pretty much destroyed me!"

"Stop it the pair of you! I care nothing for these supposed faults! As far as I am concerned you are both completely perfect and it is I who am unworthy of your love, however much I crave it…" Harry finished quietly and with a small sob. Suddenly he was engulfed in a hug from both the men he so desperately loved.

"Harry James Potter you listen and listen good. I Mr Padfoot, greatest of all Marauders tell you now that you are the most perfect person I have ever met and are more worthy of our love than any person in the entire world. You are selfless and good, this is what I love the most about you!"

"I Mr Moony would first like to point out that I am greatest of all Marauders and second like to say that I concur with the great prat Mr Padfoot's judgement of Mr Prongs jr!"

"I Mr Prongs jr (Giggling now) would first like to point out that Mr Prongs is the greatest Marauder. It is also important to be noted that I need a better name. Second I would like to say that I love you both so much. Finally, I would like to give Mr Moony the present that I forgot about last night!" With that Harry promptly transformed into a black panther and then transformed quickly back. "Well?"

"H-H-Harry? Y-you did that for m-me? Oh how I love you both! But I believe we should be getting back to bed. After all James and Lily will be here in the morning. I'll see you then my dear ones."

"R-Remus p-please will you stay here as well? I…I don't believe I could sleep again without both of you h-here!"

"Of course! Now come to bed both of you!" Remus led both of them to the bed where Sirius and Remus snuggled up to Harry hoping to comfort him with their presence. Harry dropped of again quickly and the two older men dropped off again soon after. Harry had no further nightmares, feeling comfortable and safe engulfed in the arms of the ones he loved so very much.
