I was born in a city

However small

It held a hospital

For location where I came into being

It was all down hill from there.

Draco watched the sleeping form of Harry for a short time before nodding to the figure in the shadow of the doorway. It swept out of the frame from Draco's gesture soon to be followed by the solemn man, "I told you it was bad..."

"Yes Draco I know... hmm I'm not sure, so you say you've tried the dreamless potion?" the nod from Draco combined with the silence told the man it had also failed to work, "and he tried the Penseive? To put the memory out of his mind?"

"Yes that didn't work because at first it wouldn't leave his mind, but then even when he forced it out, it didn't want to stay and as soon as he fell asleep the night it returned to him once again..." looking up from his place in an armchair, Draco whispered wearily, "what are we going to do Siri? we've tried magic, potions, psychology, visiting Hogwarts, Sev doesn't know what to do, the old coot went and carked it before he realized what a problem the dream was becoming, reenactments support, forgiveness, nothing will work..." a tear slipped down Draco's cheek, a sob only a slither from escaping, "why does he always have to handle these kinds of situations? How did Ron and Hermione stop from worrying themselves to death?"

Sirius looked down on Draco; he knew that something needed to be done for the two men as Draco had said. They had been through enough as it was, not only with the war but world wide prejudices in the wizarding community expectations and stereotypes guiding the two boys' lives from the start. Harry had been born into a sweet loving family, with extra fathers, and mothers due to his real parents friendships while at school, which strengthened even after school was over and they married off. born in his hometown, a magic community called " ", he had people who loved and supported his family but someone weaseled them out and told Voldemort of all things others in the town had begun to plan o hide the whole town and because of a grudge against James and lily, they were accuses as the ring leaders. Plots were struck up and plans made. James and lily heard of dangerous activity near by and decided for their new-borns' safety to move to a safe house as chosen by Dumbledore himself. little by little the loving supportive atmosphere Harry would have grown up in crumbled away and next thing to happen was he was on the door step of the Dursley's, unwanted and unloved.

Sirius' thoughts continued to wonder as Draco ranted, he knew the blonde needed it, as allot of the complaints were half focused on Harry and he knew he would never be able to say any of it to Harry. He knew he wasn't to be blamed for it and Harry had a habit of blaming himself for everyone's problems.

After a few minutes, Draco's rant died down and the blonde looked ready to fall asleep right where he sat. Sirius walked up to him and pulled him up. Patting him on the back, Sirius bid him good night and sent him off to bed; neither had noticed a figure in the doorway during most of the ranting. Harry knew it was not his fault but he still felt a responsibility to keep Draco happy and to give him the best life he could, it's the least he could do after each sleepless night he spends with Harry as the nightmares started up.

Watching the retreating figure of Draco, Harry long gone by then, Sirius was suddenly struck by an idea. Unsure of how effective it would be, he headed off home. To try to sleep and if that plan failed, he would then continue on his idea and continue working it to a perfection. It would not do to get their hopes up just to destroy them once again. Sirius turned and slowly made his way out the door and into the cool early morning air, thoughts slamming into each other until a final clear thought struck him s the bike roared into life.

'The poor boys have been doomed since the day they were released after birth. How odd their lives keep colliding in such unfortunate situations.'

AN/ Sorry for the long wait just for it to be a short chapter, but it seemed to suit to leave it there…

Thanks for waiting, patiently or otherwise, please feel free to comment me and badger me for my horrible-ness. If you have an idea of what Sirius could be thinking of, please let me know, I'd be interested as to what you can think up, also I still don't know what I'm doing in regards to that either… oops.

Also if there are any editing mistakes let me know, I only have time to spell check it. (astrix) Cringe (Astrix)

Please review, enjoy and have a good Summer/Winter.
