A few minutes later.

People started filing out. Harry had expected Sirius and Remus to stay back there. Some Order members started Disapparating. Ron and Hermione saw Harry and Ginny near the gate and walked over to them.

"Harry..." Hermione said quietly, sniffling softly.

"I couldn't stay in there anymore," Harry mumbled.

Hermione gave him a tight, reassuring hug. "She's in a better place now, isn't she?"

Harry nodded, a batch of fresh tears emerged from his eyes.

"I-I am going i-inside...S-Sirius and Remus..." Harry said, his voice shaking. He didn't need to elaborate anymore.

Harry wheeled to her grave quietly, passing his parents' graves and also of the mysterious Ignotus Peverell.

Harry stopped when he reached.

Sirius had his head in Remus's chest while Remus gently rubbed his back in comfort.

The silence was deafening.

"Remus?" Harry whispered quietly. Remus looked over to Harry over Sirius's shoulder and motioned him to come beside himself.

Harry stationed his wheelchair beside Remus, looking longingly at the headstone. Remus placed a hand on Harry's shoulder. Harry liked the affection.

The first coherent thought that came to Harry's mind was how was Remus dealing with all this? Being the rock for Sirius and himself.

Sirius had stopped crying. His expression was just blank, staring at the headstone. This was more scary. He looked like the time he had broken out of Azkaban. Tired, sullen and old.

An hour later, Remus quietly whispered, "Sirius? Love?" Sirius nodded shakily stating that he was listening. "I think we should go home."

"I don't want to leave her here, Rem," Sirius said hoarsely. This was actually the first time he spoke in hours. "I don't think we should stay here. It's not safe." Sirius nodded numbly.

"Harry grab my hand," Remus said a little louder. Harry grabbed his wheelchair and Remus's hand.

They apparated to the front step, in Harry's case, the slope where the Fidelius was place. They entered in the gloomy house.

Sirius quietly made his way up the stairs to his room to eventually keep staring at the ceiling.

"C'mon, Harr," Remus said, "Get some rest... It's been a long day."

Harry made his way to his room and helped himself to settle in. He fell asleep just as his head dropped onto the pillow. Harry had not realized he was running on adrenaline.


Meanwhile, Remus, who was downstairs, made some hot chamomile tea for himself and Sirius, who he knew wouldn't blink an eye.

Remus made his way to Sirius's room, purposefully knocking on the door hoping Sirius would answer. Just as he expected, there was no answer. He quietly opened the door and saw Sirius staring at the ceiling.

"Love, I got you some tea," Remus said comfortingly.

When he heard no response, Remus became desperate. Sirius had not eaten anything in the past two days...he had drank some water that morning and that's all. "Sirius, please! You have to put something in your system!"

"Go away, Remus," Sirius muttered. If it wasn't for his werewolf hearing, Remus wouldn't have heard that.

"I can't do that, can I, Love?" Remus said calmly. "Can you stop calling me 'Love'!?" Sirius half screamed, half whispered. Tears sprang to his eyes. Remus looked a little hurt by this burst of emotion but he knew better. This was not just about Liana, it was also about the effect of years he spent in Azkaban. Circumstances had hit the breaking point. Sirius was entering a dark place. Remus didn't want that to happen like it had in their sixth year. Remus quickly replied, "Why is that, Sirius?" He made sure not to the word 'Love.'

"'Cause I'm fucked up, okay?! You don't deserve someone SO, SO FUCKED UP like me! I am literally useless! I couldn't save Liana, I can't help Harry and I am being such an ARSEHOLE TO YOU!" Sirius shouted.

"No, you're not... You are amazing! You are putting yourself out there, doing the best you can while dealing with your problems! You are so brave and I love you! I need you, Padfoot! Harry needs you!" Remus said earnestly. He touched Sirius's hand, asking for consent to hold his hand. Sirius didn't resist so Remus grabbed his boyfriend's hand firmly but comfortingly. "I love you, Sirius. Now I think you should have some tea and rest, it's been a long day. That's exactly what I told Harry." Sirius smiled weakly.


Hello, people... I hope you felt the emotions. That's all I can say.
