AN: So when I write its like a movie playing in my head and I just write down the words of what is happening. Half the time I don't even know what will happen next so I'm usually just as surprised as you. Let us see what happens between Hermione's parents and Sirius when they first meet. Still not JK Rowling.

Sirius POV

Herman and I got along swimmingly but no one had told him yet how close Hermione and I were. I tried to think if there was any way of subtly bringing it up but I couldn't think of anything.

"So Sirius, Hermione said you were wrongfully imprisoned or something?" Herman said while we sat next to Hermione's bed playing a muggle card game. Her parents were dentists, people who cleaned teeth. Jean was talking with Madame Pomfrey about Hermione's teeth. Apparently they were much smaller and she wanted to ask her about it since her fourth year.

"Yes I was actually." I shivered thinking of Azkaban.

"What is prison like in the wizarding world?" He asked scratching his head.

"It's not quite like yours. There's only one prison and its in the middle of the ocean. Do you know what dementors are?" From his wide-eyed look I would say he did. "Well they were the only other things there besides the prisoners."

"Don't they drive people mad?" He asked in a hushed voice.

"Usually but I'm an Animagus and can turn into a dog." I smiled at the awestruck look on his face and continued. "I stayed in my dog form most of the time. It made it much easier to be around the dementors since they don't understand animal emotion."

"It's amazing that you didn't go insane." Herman said in a hushed voice.

"Most people did." I said shrugging and laid down a card.

"What were you imprisoned for?" Jean asked sitting across from us. "Sorry I overheard you two talking."

"Its not a very nice story." I said looking between them. They didn't protest so I laid down my cards and leaned back in my chair.

"Well I was Secret-Keeper for the Potters which means I held the secret of where they were hiding inside of me. One of my friends Peter dropped some hints that someone we knew was a spy for the other side. I believed it was Remus and at the last minute changed Secret-Keepers with Peter only no one knew. On October thirty-first I went to check on Peter and he was gone. There was no sign of struggle and I went to check on the Potters but I was too late. The house was partially destroyed and my best friend and his wife were dead. When I went to confront Peter he yelled that I betrayed the Potters and blew up the street killing eleven muggles and cut off his finger to make it look like I had done it. I was sent to Azkaban without a trial and spent twelve years in Azkaban."

Jean was crying softly into a handkerchief and Herman was looking at me in complete shock. "And you were only pardoned yesterday?"

"Yes," I said nodding.

"Where does Hermione come into this?" Jean asked shakily.

"She helped me escape the dementors kiss in her third year and yesterday she pushed me out of the way from this curse. If she hadn't I would have died." I shivered and blew out a breath.

"She saved your life twice?" Herman asked surprised.

"Yes and there's something I should tell you two." I took a shuddering breath and ran my fingers through my hair. "I'm in love with your daughter and would like your permission to propose to her." Herman and Jean stared at me in open-mouthed shock.
