When Harry stumbled out of the floo network into the Leaky Cauldron at Diagon Alley, he found himself in the loving arms of Remus. They walked out of the pub to the entrance into the Alley, where Harry slipped his hand into Remus's.
"Harry baby are you sure this is a wise idea? I mean you've had enough bad publicity as it is without coming out in the middle of Diagon Alley with a werewolf as your chosen partner."
"I don't fucking care Remy! All I care about are you, Sirius and my parents' happiness. I want to be able to walk together with you in Diagon Alley and not have to hide our true relationship! You are mine! Mine and I don't care who knows it! Now come on you silly old werewolf!"
"Well said Harry and I'm glad you finally worked out how much you cared for each other!"
"T-Tonks! What did you hear? I am not coming to Grimmauld Place! That is the last place I want to be! I'll let the Order use it till the war is over and then I am going to sell it!"
"Stop it Harry we know! Trust me! Oh and we only heard the bit about you wanting to walk with Remus as a couple."
"Kingsley?"
"Yeah Remus its me! Look we were just about to go to the Alley! How about you meet us after you've done whatever you must do? Say 11 at Fortescues?"
"Yeah all right! Now come on Harry lets get going!" The couple walked into Diagon Alley ignoring the stares and whispers they were getting. When they entered Gringotts they walked straight to the head table. Harry then signed the papers for the combining of the estates and the transfer of all his assets back to him. Dumbledore had been controlling them ever since Harry was a baby, even though his parents will declared that all assets were to be his on his return to the wizarding world.
After finishing their business at Gringotts and visiting Harry's vaults Remus and Harry went shopping in muggle London where they had their first fight.
"Remus its not bloody charity! You're my chosen life partner so it only fits that I would want to buy you a new wardrobe!"
"Harry I don't need one whatever you say!"
"You may not think you need one but I say you do! Look I've got to get a whole new wardrobe for me and the other three anyway so I might as well buy you one! Don't you dare argue with me Remus John Lupin!"
"All right I won't! Just this once won't hurt!" With that Harry and Remus set about compiling 5 new wardrobes worth of clothes. When they were finished they walked hand in hand back to Diagon Alley. However upon entering the Alley they were confronted by a furious looking Molly Weasley and a stern Minerva McGonagall.
"What the hell are you doing Remus John Lupin taking advantage of Harry in his depressed state. How dare you come anywhere near my Harry! I can't believe my boy----" the sound of a resounding slap echoed throughout the Alley.
"HOW DARE YOU! I may have been slightly miserable and weak when Remus rescued me from the Dursley's but I was NOT depressed! I know Siri's death wasn't my fault entirely! Yes I played a part but Snape was a shit teacher and Dumbledore should have fucking told me the truth when I asked and not all those half answers! Oh, and what the fuck does MY choice of partner have to do with you! I am NOT your son! Come Remy, we have a meeting to attend to at Florean's before we head home!" Thank god I didn't let slip about Sev being my friend! Harry thought.
"Oh no Harry James Potter, you aren't going anywhere but to Grimmauld Place!"
"No Professor I am not going to that place ever again until I sell it! I am going to MY home that is 10 times safer than that hellhole anyway considering ONLY I can see it unless you are already inside it or are with me! And by with me I only mean someone I bring there within my knowledge and wishes! Now come on Remus I want to get this over with and go home!"
"Harry I'm afraid I can't allow you to go anywhere! The only place you are truly safe is the Dursley's!" This time it was not Harry who answered this statement. This was hardly surprising as he was currently shivering and sporting an absolutely petrified look.
"SAFE! SAFE! Albus what the fucking hell do you think you are saying? Harry is by no means safe in that terrible house! Harry come, I'm sure our friends can wait until another time to see us!" Remus said and made to take Harry's arm, always ensuring he was in Harry's line of sight, but was beaten to it by the Headmaster. The Alley was filled with a terrified scream.
"No Uncle Vernon please! I didn't mean to miss that weed! Please don't do it! I can't take it anymore!"
"Oh Shit! Now see what you've fucking done Dumbledore? Shh Harry shh, I'm here! Gods Sirius where are you when I need you?" Remus cried out loud. Moments later a black grim like dog ran into the Alley. It was evident to Remus that Sirius had felt Harry's distress just like he himself had the night before. The dog crouched down low on the ground and crept slowly over to Harry and whined, out of instinct Harry put his hand out, even though he didn't know it was Sirius, and Padfoot put his nose into the distressed boy's hand. Harry realised who it was and flung his arms around the dog.
"Sn-Snuffles? Oh gods I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to break down but I th-thought it was Uncle Vernon again!" Harry whispered. Padfoot gently licked Harry's tears away. Remus tenderly lifted the small boy into his arms and carried him over to Florean's whilst the dog followed.
"That's enough! Nothing to see! Now do I have to hex you all into oblivion or are you going to give us a little privacy?" Tonks shouted. Everyone in the Alley started going about their business once more apart from Tonks, Kingsley, Molly, Mcgonogall, Dumbledore and the other members of the order who Remus was surprised to see in the Alley: Bill, Charlie, Fred and George Weasley! Remus quickly put up a very strong notice me not charm whilst Tonks threw up and equally strong silencing charm.
"I-is that who I think it is?" She asked.
"Y-yes this is S-sirius! Its okay love, I'll be fine now. You can change back to your human form." Sirius quickly did this and sat down on a seat, pulling the still sobbing and quivering Harry into his lap, cuddling him and making soft shushing sounds until Harry fell asleep in his arms. When this was done he transfigured one of the regular chairs into a bed for the scarred young man to lie on. He quickly kissed his forehead before turning, enraged to Dumbledore.
"What the fuck have you done to him now? Do you know what Remus and I had to do to calm him down last night? Do you want to know why? His uncle raped him that's why and YOU, you utter bastard come and undo all our hard work!"
"Look Sirius, I can understand why your angry at him but how do we know its you? I mean I'd love to believe it but how do we know?"
"Quite easily my dear Bill! Did you all see what I did to calm Harry down? Only three people in this world know that last year when Harry was upset at Grimmauld Place I would turn into Padfoot and put my nose into the palm of Harry's hand. It was the only thing that would calm him down!"
"Okay so you're Sirius. Then how did you get back here?"
"Lets just say my dear Professor (sarcastically) that ol' Padfoot can still work his magic! Now if you'll excuse me, Remus and I are going to take our partner back home where his REAL family is!"
"I'm afraid I can't let you do that Sirius! You are a ---"
"Go ahead and say it! A criminal? Well guess what, that doesn't matter shit! His PARENTS are his rightful guardians and that's whom I'm taking him to now! We are going to ONE of HIS many homes and you can't stop us! Come Remus!" Sirius said before stalking off with Harry in his arms, Remus following quickly behind them, maintaining the notice me not charm. Sirius conjured a portkey and was about to activate it when he heard 6 voices say all together:
"Wait you guys we're coming with you! We all love Harry and we're with you in protecting him, even if it means we have to leave the order!"
"Alright Bill, Charlie, Fred, George, Kinglsey, Tonks grab onto the Portkey!"
