Chapter Two

Unfair

"Dudders, you can blow out your candles, now. Make a wish!" Petunia said, as Vernon took a picture. Dudley was absolutely adorable in his little party outfit and his red party hat...at least, that's what Petunia kept saying.

"Oh, you look so cute! I could just eat you up!" Petunia said, pinching Dudley's cheeks once again. "I can't believe you're already seven years old!"

Harry heard all of this from inside his little cupboard. His aunt and Uncle didn't want him out there because they said he would ruin the party.


Harry Potter sat outside the principal's office again. This was the third time this week and it was only Thursday. It wasn't like he went looking for trouble, but trouble always found him.

He could see his Aunt nodding her head understandingly at whatever Mr. Veak was saying. Harry couldn't see her face, but he could tell from the way she hung her head that she was sick and tired of all this, he couldn't help getting into trouble. Dudley seemed to always get away with everything! He was only trying to defend himself!

"Aunt Petunia I ..,"

"Save it Brat!" she cut him off. That's when he knew he was in real trouble. She only ever called him a brat when he had done something wrong. Otherwise it was Harry or even boy.

Petunia fished into her bag for the keys to her jeep "Why is it you can never keep out of trouble Harry," she asked getting into the car.

"Aunt Petunia I didn't mean to, it's just…"

"Just what? Come on Harry tell me why you are always causing me such grief. Don't I have enough to cope with?"

Harry just stared out of the window watching the traffic pass by. "You don't understand aunt Petunia, I only hit Piers because…" he trailed off, he should have just shut up.

"Because?" Petunia snapped at him.

"Because he said that my parents didn't care about me. He said that because they were never around, that they didn't love me,"

"They didn't other wise they wouldn't have gotten themselves killed! Piers had every right to say what he had said!" Petunia exclaimed.


"You do remember Harry don't you!"

What Sirius said to him had hurt. Of course Remus did.

Sirius had come to Remus with proof that he was innocent, by means of showing him his memories. They had a fight a first of course, but Sirius had bonded him with ropes and forced Remus to see the truth.

To the point, Remus knew that he hadn't really been there for the boy, but that didn't mean that he wasn't watching over him. Sirius didn't know this. He didn't know of all the times that he had been watching the Dursley's family from the shadows. Sirius didn't know that Remus had spent so many nights just watching Harry sleep in that little cupboard; even now he still kept an eye on his nephew, on his cub.

It wasn't that he didn't love him, that he didn't want him. He did more than life! It was the damn Ministry that wouldn't let him have Harry!

All because of him being a werewolf!

Couldn't Sirius try and understand that he tried to get Harry? He tried so hard!


Sirius P.O.V

Saving people was always James' line of work. It was his thing you know? But I need to take a leaf out of his book, for his own child's sake. Harry is alone. Everyone he loves is going to be captured by Tom, left to die, or concerns over him to a point of insanity, constant worry and sacrifice. I know these occurrences all too well, and plan on helping him.

When Albus finally believed me; Asking Dumbledore today was quite possibly one of the easiest things I have ever done – for although I do not believe in destiny much, it was meant for Harry, Remus, and I to help each other.

Harry is only 6 though; he has a long ways ahead of him. The boy is like a son to me. I think of him as my charge – beyond any doubt he is my sole responsibility. Harry will therefore live with me this summer, we'll hide out with Remus and until the end of his education and he finds himself a job. That is if he wishes of course.


Sirius sat next to his old friend Remus Lupin.

"Am sorry for what I said to you Moony, a was just upset." Sirius said as Remus sighed in frustration.

"I know you were Padfoot, but don't give one second thought that I had never tried to get Harry, because Merlin knows I tried." Remus said as Sirius looked at his friend guilty.

"You've spoken to Albus about Harry right?" Remus asked him.

"Yea! He said we would be able to take Harry, but we would have to hide out if we plan to do so."

"As long as we take Harry away from those awful relatives of his, it'll be worth it."
