Sirius Black/James Potter
James Potter hugged me tightly despite my state.
I was beaten by my mother, muddy by my travel, soaking wet by the rain and broken in my heart.
His arms welcomed me in my desperation and I would never let James let me go.
It was more love in his hug than I had in a lifetime. That hurt.
"Why – " I whispered and heard my question die out.
Why was I unlovable?
"Because they don't know that you are more than a Black, you are amazing Padfoot"
It was safe, I was loved and James – James was beyond amazing.
