Chapter 9

"Kid, you scared me!" Sirius said and released Harry from the hug, brushing a stray tendril of Harry's raven black hair behind his godson's ear.

Harry looked up at him with an innocent-confused expression: "Why?" he asked quietly.

Sirius sighed and let his hand fall in his lap,
"Because nobody, Harry, could wake you up."

Harry's brow furrowed in confusion: "You couldn't?" he asked, trying to make sense to Sirius' words.

"No, no matter what we tried, you would not wake up. We were afraid that you would perhaps never-" Sirius broke off and looked away.

Harry felt guilty for worrying Sirius so much and said, in a small voice, "I'm sorry."

Sirius turned back to Harry and turned the child's head toward him, looking him firmly in the eyes: "Don't be sorry."

Harry frowned in confusion, "Why not? I worried al of you and-"

Sirius shushed Harry: "Easy, kid, you have no reason to be sorry!"

Harry saw that Sirius would not relent and sighed,
"Alright."

Sirius smiled and ruffled Harry's hair, "That's my boy. How are you feeling?"

Harry thought about it for a while and finally said,
"I'm fine, just tired."

Sirius nodded and got up from the bed: "Try to stay awake, Harry."

Harry nodded and opened his mouth to reply- when suddenly he realized just how dangerous it was for his godfather to be here: "Sirius! Why are you here? What if someone saw you? They're going to-"

Sirius held up his hands to quiet Harry and said, smiling, "I am free, Harry, so don't worry about me!"

Harry stared at his godfather for a few moments, then his face split into a wide, albeit tired, grin,
"Sirius, that's great!"

Sirius nodded, smiling, and ruffled Harry's hair another time, and then he left the room to call the doctor.

Then, he went right back to Harry. The next half hour was spent with Sirius telling Harry stories about the Marauders and Lily.

The, the doorbell rang and Sirius went to answer it. It was the doctor who immediately began to check Harry over. After ten minutes he seemed satisfied and started to put his things away.

"Well, young man, you are very lucky!" the doctor said as he put the last of his equipment into his bag.

Harry did not understand. "Why? What do you mean?" he asked in confusion.

The doctor smiled and closed the lid of his bag,
"Because you, Harry, came out of the coma, which you should not take for granted, and you will not be too sick."

So, do you like?
