True Friends

Harry

I was sitting in my favourite, chair studding up on my potions theory. Dad wanted me to know the basics before school started. My dad, had just told me that my friend Draco and his parents were having supper with us tonight. I could not wait to see my friend, I have known him since birth, he is a month older than me. I can't wait to show him my new pet kitten that dad got me. His name is Odin, he has black fur except the fur on his feet is white. Dad said he looks like odin is wearing four white socks.

It was around 4:30 when one of our house elves popped in the room. "Yes Didi, is it time for supper?" I asked.

"No young master, your dad needs you in the sitting room. Your guests will be arriving I a few minutes." Didi said just before she popped away. I run down the hall to the sitting room only to be stopped by my dad. "Son how many times have I told you not to run in the house? Dad asked.

"One too many." I blurted out before I could catch myself. "I would suggest that you hold your tongue or you will fine yourself in your room for the night." He scolded.

Draco was the first though the green flames in fireplace, he ran over to me and hugged me. "Dad can I show Draco, Odin now pleaaasssee?" I begged, gaining look from dad. " alright off you go, supper will be ready in a hour boys.

I grabbed his hand and dragged Draco up to my room. Once there, we sat on my bed where odin was curled up sleeping. I looked down at my cat with sad tear filled eyes. I was hoping that he hadn't notice, but I was wrong.

"Harry, Whats wrong? You know you can tell me anything. I don't like it when your sad." He lifted my chin and wiped my tears. "It my dad, I just know he's keeping something from me. And he gets really sad when I ask about my mom."

"Maybe he feels its not the right time to tell. The only way you will know is to ask him. Tell him how you feel. Hey I know what will help you feel better."

"What Dra?" I asked as he put an arm around me.

"I think you need a sleep over at my house tonight. I am sure your dad will say yes. Mom is probably asking right now. Hey at least you still have a few thing at my place so you won't need an overnight bag." After that we played with odin till we were called to supper.

Severus

Wiki brought in a tray with tea an cookies on it. We all sat, around the coffee table.

"Sev whats wrong? we have been friends a long time, we know you miss James. But I know that isn't why you asked us over. know why you asked us here is it?" Cissia placed a gentle hand on my shoulder.

"It has has been almost ten years that my James was taken from us. I found these letters the other day in my safe. Theres one for me and the other is for harry. I was hoping I could wait till. He was old to tell him what happened and it's James that was his carrier-mom. How do I tell him? This will crash him, I lied to him."

"Sev just sit down with him tell him that no matter what you love him and so did his papa. Tell him that his aunt Lily was very brave and wanted to protect her only nephew and her brother. Then give him the letter from James."

Thanks Cissia, Lucius thanks for being here. At least we have a few years before we have to explain about soulmates. I will have Blaise look out for the boys at school. He is very protective of the boys."

"Thats what true friends do for each other, I have talked to Marianna and she said that he has already felt a pull to his veela mate.I don't think it will be long after he graduates that he will be plaining a bonding. And to think he's only 15 years. Any way I wanted to know if you would allow Harry to spend the night and we could take him to get his school thing. Then drop him off later." Lucius smiled. "I think harry would like that. Have you noticed how the boy have started to get closer ? I feel they will find out about being mates sooner than later." I cringed at the thought. Didi came in saying supper was ready and the boys were already at the table.
