I hope you enjoy this story that I got from katie13 (yes another one) that she said that she had never put up on this site.
Chapter 30
Harry smiled. "Alright," he said.
Sirius smiled and ruffled Harry's hair: "After breakfast we can go outside."
They had a nice, quiet meal. Sirius was just about to get up and put the dishes in the sink, when an owl flew in through the open window.
She dropped a letter on both Sirius' and Harry's lap.
Sirius took the letter out of its envelope curiously and smoothed it out.
Sirius,
Thank you for writing and telling me about Fudge. Please be careful, I have written to Harry's friends and asked them not to write to him, it's safer at the moment. I did write to Harry so he doesn't feel left out.
Albus
Harry unfolded his letter with slightly trembling fingers. Nobody ever sent him letters!
Harry,
You may not remember me but my name is Albus Dumbledore. I hope that you and your godfather are both getting along well.
Have a nice day,
Albus Dumbledore
Harry furrowed his brows in confusion. "Dad, do I know him?" he asked doubtfully.
Harry handed Sirius the letter. Sirius smiled at Harry because it looked like he was worried about the simple note.
"Yes, but don't worry about it now." Sirius answered and put the letters away. But Harry, apparently, was not satisfied. His brows were still furrowed in an expression of cute confusion.
"How come I don't remember him, Daddy?" He wanted to know.
Sirius hesitated. He didn't want to tell Harry the whole story, but he didn't want to lie to his godson either. Sirius settled for the half-truth: "It was a spell, Harry."
Harry was looking at him wide-eyed: "A spell?" he breathed. "Like, magic?"
Sirius had to smile a little at Harry's disbelief. "Yes, magic." he confirmed.
Harry looked awed. "Did I do it?" he asked a little worriedly.
"No," Sirius said softly. "No, you didn't."
Now Harry was curious. "Why not?" he wanted to know, climbing up on his godfather's lap.
Sirius sighed: "Kiddo, when you are older I will tell you." His voice clearly indicated that this talk was over.
Harry sighed disappointedly but did not press his godfather. He had learnt a long time ago that if adults used that kind of voice, they didn't want to talk about the subject-at-hand any longer.
"Ok," he sighed. Sirius ruffled his godson's hair again.
"Now, what would you like to do?" Sirius asked, trying to get Harry's mind off the subject.
"Play!" Harry exclaimed enthusiastically, jumping down to the floor and pulling on Sirius' sleeve.
Sirius smiled and allowed his godson to drag him outside.
