"He's awake!" James smiles as he walked the girls to sirius's room.

"that's great!" the girls smile and go into the room.

"aww shucks girls did you all come here for little ol' me" Sirius smiles at them weakly through half lidded eyes.

"yes, Sirius, no matter how much we hate you we still want to see you are ok" they each give him a small hug.

"how are you bro?" Olivia stood next to him and played with his hair.

"I've seen better and worse days" He smiles at her gently wanting to just kiss her and live happily ever after. Knowing it could never be though.

"yes you have" she nods and laid her head on his trying not to cry. Sirius closed his eyes his heart pounding in his chest. She was too close, she smelt too good, having her there was like teasing a starving man with a steak. His hand found hers and he squeezed it softly. Then she broke down once again tear pouring down in relief that he was alright she hugged his shoulders tight and he rubbed her back and let her cry. Everyone watch one of the strongest girls in hogwarts cry. The girls all hug each other as the guys looked down at their feet. Remus walked over to Victorie who had tears trickkling out her eyes and hugged her she buried her head in his neck hugging him tight.

"Remus" she whispered softly.

"yes?" he looks down at her wiping away her tears.

"I love you" she said touching his cheek gently tracing a scar.

He sighed leaning to her touch " I-I love you too" he touches her lips gently, before leaning down and kissing her. Everyone smiles at the two. Olivia finally calmed down and kissed Sirius's head.

"I'm sorry, but i'm happy your ok" she wipped away the tears and smudges on his face.

"It's ok, are you ok?"

"yeah," she nods, and he smiles "good."

"be mine?" Remus asks as they broke apart.

"always" she nods and kisses him again. Everyone claps and cheers for the two.

"way ta go Moony!" all the marauders cheer, and the two laugh forgetting their friends were there. Mr. and Mrs. Potter smile from outside.

"guess he'll be fine now, he looks happy" Mrs. Potter lays her head on her husbands shoulder. He happily held her to him.

"they all do" he kissed her head "I've asked the house elves to prepare rooms for all of them"

"good, they need each other now"

"yes I know" he nods

~2 Weeks later~

Sirius was home, Potter manor, and feeling better. Olivia finally went home after staying at the hospital with Sirius and James. She walked into her house to see bottles laying around.

"Oh no, Daddy?! Daddy where are you!" She ran searching for her father. She found him laying on the floor in the living room. "daddy, are you ok?" she tried to flip him over.

"leave me alone" he pushed her away "you already left me like your mother! i don't need you!"

"dad your drunk, let me help you up stairs" she helped him stand up but didn't expect what came next. The next thing she knew she was on the floor her nose bleeding.

"OMG! Olivia, I didn't- i'm-" Her father studdered realizing what he did. He stepped torwards her to help her but she scrammbled back scared. "Olivia I'm so sorry sweetie, I didn't mean to."

"Daddy you need to stop this," she cried standing up.

"I'm sorry," he touched her arm and she flinched away before walking closer to him. "i'm sorry," he repeated hugging her close.

"Dad you have to stop drinking, M-Mum wouldn't want you like this. She wouldn't want you using her as an excuse at all" Olivia hugged her father close begging him to stop.

He nods softly "i'll sober up sweetie, i promise," he kissed her head "b-but i want you to stay at the Potters for now."

"no I'm not letting you do this by yourself, what if-"

"I have to do this myself love," he cut her off " I don't want to hurt you again"

"but daddy" she shook her head.

"no, i'll call them right now get your stuff together" he kissed her head and left to make the call. Olivia sniffled and made her way up stairs, she held a towel to her nose and quickly packed away her necessities and such. she sniffled then winced at her tender nose. This is so far the worst christmas in history. She wrapped up a picture of her mom and a necklace that was hers into her sachel.

"liv?" She heard sirius and James at the door. Slowly she turned around and moved the towel off her nose. "'oh my- Olive, are you alright?"

she shrugged "not exactly" she murmured. James took the things out her hand an finished packing for her while sirius sat her down and procceded to play nurse. "Guys you don't need to do this, really"

"shh" sirius says in a perfect imitation of madame pomfrey the intren in the hospital wing. Olivia had to giggle softly. "really dear you need to just let me work, muggle remedies are the best for this kind of work" Sirius Procceeded to do his imitation of Madame Pompfrey. he dabbed some ointment on her nose. she sneezed softly "bless you dearie" he smiles. Olivia and James laugh at his antics.

"Sirius you can stop it with the voice" James says.

" yeah bro, i don't think i need a side stich from laughing soo much" Olivia teases.

"ok ok" he smiles and hugs her "you'll be fine lovely and so will your dad"

"and so will reg" she said softly.

"hopefully" he kissed her head in a strictly brother sister way.

"ok i'm done" James stood up slinging the sachel over his shoulder and lifting the handel of her trunk.

"thanks, Jamie" Olivia stood up and gave him a side hug. He kissed her temple and walked her down the stairs.

"Bye Olive, I'll come over and see you on christmas" Her father gave her a hug.

"Ok daddy, I'm gonna miss you" she sqeezed him tight.

"you too, you too" he kissed her head before letting her go and leave with James and Sirius who patted the mans shoulder.
