AN: Not JK Rowling

The rest of the party was slow compared to Sirius' blow up when he learned my age. Everyone stared at us until I came up with a convincing lie where I had told him that there were fish scales in lip stick. Hey give me a break it was the best I could do under pressure. A few days after the party I could finally move my legs like normal.

The next month passed slowly with the monotonous cleaning and trying to sneak away to learn more about Sirius and his life before Azkaban. I had learned his favorite color was red, he liked the band ACDC to my utter shock and said he even enjoyed some of Madonna's music. His favorite food was steak and kidney pie and he loved chocolate ice cream.

The seventh time I went to the library to see Sirius the room was empty. He was almost always up at night, couldn't sleep in the dark and I could hardly blame him. I shook my head and headed towards the kitchen to grab a mug of hot chocolate. A light was on in the drawing room and I slowly made my way over to the door. Sirius was standing in front of the tapestry his wand in one hand and the other stroking his chin as he thought.

"Sirius?" I asked coming into the room looking at the tapestry.

"Pet," he smiled down at me. "How you feeling?" he asked watching me.

"Oh I'm fine," I said smiling at him trying not to show the aftereffects of the nightmare I had had. "Trying to figure out how to take down the tapestry?" I asked looking closely at it.

"Yeah but I don't think there really is a way to take it down my dear old mother was rather good at her sticking charms." I looked closely at the spot where Sirius' name should have been and touched the charred spot.

"What about covering it?" I asked looking closely for names I knew. Malfoy, Lestrange and there in the corner where a small burn mark was singed into the tapestry was the name Dorea Potter. I gasped and moved forward.

"Is this James' mother?" I asked surprised.

"Yes she was my mother's cousin. One of the nicest women I have ever met. The Potter's took me in after I left home. I never thought I would be stuck in this place again." He said shaking his head and taking a small kick at the wall.

"Is it really that bad I mean you get to be here and know everything that's going on? What about spending time with George and Fred I know they remind you of James and yourself when you were younger, and I know you love Harry as if he were your own son. Ron went to you for girl advice a few weeks ago and out of all his brothers he chose you and Ginny she thinks of you as the uncle she adores and can always laugh with."

"You missed one person," he said a small smirk on his face.

"Oh yeah how could I forget Remus."

"Not Remus Pet I meant you." I blushed and looked away. We hadn't spoken about our feelings since the night of the party.

"I'm not that great." I mumbled walking over to a desk in the corner and grabbing a quill.

"I beg to differ you are very great." Sirius said coming over to me. I could feel my heart pounding and I swallowed loudly.

"What happened to waiting?" I asked breathless.

"I can still give you your first kiss." He placed his hands on my shoulders and I shivered. His large hands turned me so I was facing him. My stomach jumped when I realized how close he was. He pushed me against the wall knocking the desk over. Sirius leaned closer his lips almost touched mine but we both froze when we heard a high pitched voice scream.

"HOW COULD YOU BE WITH A MUDBLOOD?" We pulled apart as if we had been shocked. Mrs. Black was standing in front of us a very dark look on her face.
