Lost In Another Time

“Did you ever, before Azkaban I mean, did you ever, I mean…was there a ever a girl in your life?” Sirius smiled sadly. “There was. Once.” Harry could sense that Sirius didn’t want to talk about it, but he really wanted to know. “What happened?”

22. The One With The Knock on the Door

"Harry?" Sirius asked through the door. Hermione's eyes widened and she hurried to hide the folder and its contents.

"Just a second!" Harry called frantically. "I'm-I'm-brushing my teeth!"

Hermione and Ron both threw him are-you-stupid? looks, but he ignored them.

Sirius opened the door, dropped a folder on the bed, and left without another word.

Exchanging a look with Ron and Hermione, Harry dumped the folder onto his bed.

Inside was a photograph. It was of the Marauders, plus Lily and Alexa, but it was hard to tell what was going on. James was jumping for joy and Lily was screaming happily. Alexa and Remus were sneezing, while Sirius tried to kiss Alexa and Peter just looked thrilled beyond belief.

"Strange," was all Harry said.

"Even stranger," Hermione said, looking at one of the documents she was picking up. "You're never going to believe this."

"What?" Ron and Harry asked in harmony.

"Alexa and Sirius have a daughter."
