So here is chapter three. Disclaimer and warning same as always.

I woke up the next morning with something warm and soft pressed into me. I blinked around slightly dazed. The bright light flooding into the curtains made me disoriented. I could tell by the direction the sunlight was coming through that I was not in my bed. I looked over at what was causing my arm to be smashed into the mattress.

Sirius.

Last night came back in a rush. Sirius had had a nightmare. I came over to talk to him, and he begged me not to leave him. I looked at his sleeping face. He looked so calm and peaceful in his sleep. Not disturbed by the day to day life that caused us to want to shrink back and hide.

I sighed, closing my eyes. I was glad that it was Sunday. I didn't want to get up and go to class. I wanted to stay here forever. I listened intently and could tell that no one was in the dorm, and could faintly hear the sound of talking down in the common room.

I yawned and turned over to watch Sirius sleep. I poked him on the check. "Sirius." I whispered. He grunted, and buried his face into my chest. I laughed, and poked him in the side. "Sirius!" I said a little louder this time. "It's time for breakfast." He grumbled, then sat up. He blinked at me.

"Breakfast? What time is it?" He asked.

I shrugged. "No clue, let's get going."

We got dressed, and I hopped down the stairs ahead of Sirius. We walked together to the Great Hall. There weren't many students in the hallways. I suspected they were all eating.

Sitting at the table in their secluded corner with Lily, they ate quickly. It was a nice day outside, and they wanted to spend some time down by the lake.

The sudden swooshing of wings made me look up. A large eagle owl was swooping down towards us. I nudged Sirius in the arm and nodded towards it. I could see the red envelope it clutched in its beak.

It dropped the envelope into Sirius' lap, and flew off again out the window. Sirius stared at the red letter, looking terrified.

"Open Sirius, It'll go off either way." Lily said, looking wary.

With trembling hands Sirius picked up the letter, and broke the wax seal with the crest of the Black family.

Sirius' mother's voice rang out through the Great Hall. The hall went silent, as all the students turned toward them.

"SIRIUS ORION BLACK HOW DARE YOU EVEN ASSOCIATE WITH THAT DIRTY HALF-BLOOD!"

Sirius had gone pale, and he was now sinking down lower in his seat.

"-BANE OF MY LIFE!! I DON'T EVEN WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU WERE THINKING! A QUEER, IN THE MOST ANCIENT AND NOBLE HOUSE OF BLACK! YOU BLOOD TRAITOR! HOW DARE YOU EMBARRASS THIS FAMILY LIKE THAT!"

I stared at the envelope in shock. How could anyone be this horrible to their son?

"-DISOWN YOU. YOU BETTER START ACTING MORE LIKE THE BLACK YOU ARE! WHEN YOU COME HOME YOU'RE GOING TO BE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE!"

With that, the letter burst into flames. The silence that followed it was almost tangible. Then, the laughter started at the Slytherin table and worked its way across the Great Hall.

Lily slammed her fork down, and glared at the people closest to her. I set my fork down as well, appetite gone. I nudged Sirius in the arm.

"Come on." I said quietly, standing up. Sirius didn't move. "Padfoot? Let's go." He stood up, and we walked out of the Great Hall. I could feel the eyes that followed us as we left.

We walked out onto the grounds, and sat under a big oak tree next to the lake.

I sat leaning against the tree while Lily sprawled out on her stomach. Sirius sat leaning against me.

"I'm sorry Sirius." Lily said quietly.

"Not your fault." Sirius replied, digging in his bag for his homework.

We spent the rest of the day on the grounds. When lunch time came we went and ate in the kitchens, not wanting to put Sirius through going into the Great Hall.

When it started to get dark, we picked up all our things and headed up towards the castle.

Sirius' little brother Regulus jumped in front of us.

"Nice howler this morning Sirius." Regulus said with a sneer. "I wrote to mom and told her about you."

Sirius didn't say anything, but scowled at Regulus.

"Come on Sirius. I'm just trying to help you out. Help you get rid of that dirty animal." Regulus said, sending me a disgusted look.

Sirius reached for his want, but Regulus was faster.

I didn't hear what he said, but Sirius fell back with several deep gashed on his face, arms, and chest. I could tell he was knocked out.

The wolf inside me wanted to attack Regulus for hurting my mate, but rationality won over that.

Lily and I leapt forward at the same time. I reached for Sirius and caught him before he hit the ground.

Lily however kept going, and then when she was close enough to Regulus, she punched him with all her might in the jaw. He stumbled back, holding his face.

I watched him run away, before returning my attention to Sirius. I picked him up, and stood. "Let's go. We need to get him to the hospital wing."

Lily was fuming as we walked through the corridors.

"I can't believe them. What kind of horrible people are they?" Lily said furiously. "Really, I think you should show as much PDA as possible. Get them used to it. Then maybe it won't be so bad."

I frowned at her. "Of course it'll still be bad. I think that would just make it worse."

Lily gave me that look, and I knew that I best drop it.

When we got to the hospital wing, Madame Pomfrey fixed him up. Lily left to go get dinner, but I stayed with Sirius. This was all my fault. I had caused a giant rift in the Most Ancient and Noble House Black. I sighed, and dropped my head onto the side of the bed Sirius was occupying.

How could they ever get through this?

So what do you think? Leave me a review please! =D
