Disclaimer: All you see is mine.

If only you knew: all the things they've done to me,

Hurt me so bad that I could barely see

Through the tears in my eyes

And there were times when I really did believe

That I didn't belong; there's no place for me.

But now you're here, and I'm starting to see

That there's such a thing as love,

And there's some of it for me.

So all in all I'm glad you came,

And when I think of love

'I'll remember your name.

At least until tonight,

When you have to leave again,

And I'll just have to surrender

To the crushing pain.

Harry hurried to finish his chores and then went up to his tiny room. He kicked the mess aside and then limped his way to the pile of rags in the floor that he used as a bed (why did that leg always have to hurt so much?). He knew he really should be cleaning Dudley's room before he came home, but his head hurt too much. It wouldn't matter if he lay down for just a few minutes…or ten. Harry's eyes had just begun to droop when he heard a loud crack and jumped up. The Dursley's! was he going to be hit again? It took the small boy a few seconds to realize that he wasn't looking at his uncle, but at a thin, sandy brown haired man standing in his room. Was he the police? Was he to be punished? He had only slept for ten minutes.

"Please sir, don't hit me," he begged.

Remus nearly cried when he saw what the Dursley's had done to poor Harry. The seven year old was thinner than anyone Remus had ever seen, and he was wearing a shirt so riddled with holes that it barely covered any of him. Id didn't cover th innumerable cuts and bruises that littered Harry's body either. Remus could hardly speak, and his eyes stung with the tears that so badly wanted to fall. He noticed Harry cowering in the corner, though, o his knowledge, Remus hadn't done anything frightening. Maybe he had scared Harry by apparating.

"Sorry Harry, I didn't mean to scare you, you know," Remus stretched his hand out towards Harry, who recoiled instantly, whimpering

"I'm sorry, p-p-please, d-dooon't hit me. Sorry."

What on earth was Harry apologizing for?

"I won't hit you, Harry. I'm Remus Lupin, but you used to call me Remus or Moony. Actually, Mooey. Do you remember me? I knew you when you were a baby."

Harry still didn't seem to believe that the man wasn't going to slap him, but he shook his head.

"No. D-don't rem-member R-Remus."

Remus reached into his pocket and pulled out the last of his chocolate. It saddened the chocoholic's heart to part with it, but t was for Harry. The small boy hesitantly reached out and took the candy.

"F-f-for me?" he asked.

"Who else, Harry? Of course," replied Remus.

Harry quickly devoured the chocolate, looking more savage than normal as he swallowed in great chunks. 'Sort of like me after full moon,' Remus thought, grimacing. Remus barely contained his rage at the Dursley's as he took in Harry's malnourished figure. He felt like hitting them full force with the Cruciatus curse, but he tried to keep it in check. If there was one thing he wasn't it was a murderer. At least not yet, he added. It was then that Remus vowed to visit every day if he could, and to bring the child back to Grimmauld place as soon as possible. Summer Holidays were almost a month away, and then Harry would stay with Mrs. Figg while the Dursley's (the bastards) went on vacation. Harry had only to hang on until then.

Then Arabella Figg would report to Remus, and they'd bust Harry out. Then the Dursley's would pay. There might only be two marauders left, but that was enough. With years of practice handy, Remus was sure that he could lay so many spells and traps on that house that that frigging family of brutes wouldn't be getting out in any lifetime.

"What you th-thinking 'bout, Mooey? You going to get Unca's Belt, Mooey? Please d-don't," came a soft voice from right beside the wolf's ear, and he absolutely melted on the spot. The Dursley's could wait, this was Harry's time.

Disclaimer: I forgot before, but I do own these characters. J.K. Rowling chewed them up and spat them out, some dead, and I found them. Just kidding, I don't, but I wish I did.

Oh yeah, this is from a while back, then the next chapters are newer. So please bear with me until then. And review. I'm giving you something to read, it's only fair you do the same. And please, constructive criticism only please.
