It was a couple of days later, Christmas Eve, when Harry went looking for Hermione. He found her in the kitchen, sitting at the table, the Daily Profit in hand, as Sirius set a cup of coffee in front of her and went back to the stove.

They were arguing about something, Harry wasn't sure what, but he could tell from the smile in Hermiones eyes, that it was all in fun. She looked up and saw him then, and the smile reached her lips "Hello Harry." Sirius turned and greeted his Godson "Harry, can I offer you a grilled cheese sandwich?" he asked, holding up a plate full. Harry accepted as he poured himself a cup of the coffee.

He sat down at to table to eat, and glanced over the paper that Hermione had laid aside while she ate. He read the paper until a few minutes later, when Sirius stepped out of the room for a minute, then he looked to Hermione "I want to talk to you about something." Hermione raised her brows "What is it Harry?" He shook his head "Not now, it's something that we won't want interrupted. Can we talk later?"

Hermione nodded "Of course, there's nothing wrong is there?" Harry shook his head once more "No, nothings wrong, no need to worry." he said with a smile. Hermione nodded again "Alright, I'm almost finished here, would ou like to talk afterwords." Harry nodded "Alright, I'll meet you in the study upstairs." Hermione looked as if she would have liked to ask questions, but refrained, and instead went back to eating her sandwich.

Hermione found Harry in the study a little while later, and shut the door behind her as she walked inside. She sat down in the chair by his and looked at him "Alright, here I am, what's on your mind Harry?"

Harry cleared his throat, feeling a little awkward now that the moment was upon him "Well, it's about Sirius." Hermione leaned forward a little "Yes?" Harry hesitated "I just want to let you know that it's ok by me." Hermione frowned "What are you talking about?" Harry sighed "You and Sirius."

Hermione raised her brows, looking surprised "What me and Sirius?" Harry leaned towards her "Hermione, you don't have to hide it, I know that you fancy him, and it's pretty obvious that he feels that same way."

Her brows went up a little farther at his words "He does?" she asked, not bothering to deny what Harry said. Harry nodded "Yes, he does, we've all been waiting to see when one of you would do something about it, and Ginny thought that maybe you thought I would have a problem with it." he shrugged "But I don't, yeah it'll be a little strange, but if you both are happy, that's all that matters to me."

Hermione sat there for a moment "I don't know what to say Harry, I never thought he might feel the same." Harry chuckled "That's because You've obviously never seen the way he looks at you, the way he waits around for you when you're coming for a visit, the way that he's much happier when you're here than when you're not." Hermione blushed at his words, but said nothing. Harry smiled "You should do something about it, he never will, I know him, he'll feel he's to old for you. But I know you too, and I know that it's just a number to you."

Hermione nodded "Thank you Harry." Harry shrugged, looking slightly embarrassed "Don't mention it. I'll just be glad if he stops being so moony all the time." Hermione laughed then, as they both stood and she hugged one of her best friends. "I'll talk to him, I promise." She said as she opened the door to find Sirius on the other side, reaching his hand towards where the knob had just been.

Hermione looked surprised "Sirius, what are you doing here?" Sirius smirked "I live here." he said, then looked to Harry "Ginny is looking for you." Harry nodded and smiled at Hermione "Alright, I'll just leave you two alone then." Hermione opened her mouth to protest, but Harry was already out the door.

Sirius smirked again "What's that all about?" Hermione looked at him and felt herself blush, something she hadn't done in front of him in years "Sirius, we need to talk."

So there will be one more part to this chapter, and then I think one more chapter after that before the end. Let me know what you think so far, thanks for reading. :o)
