Disclaimer-
I don't own any of these characters, they all belong to
Jk!
Summary- With Sirius cleared of all charges, it's time
for Harry to
finally get the family he craves. But adjusting to
family life isn't
easy, for either of them!
A/N- I know
lots of sirius/harry stories have been done before, i'm
trying to
make it slightly different, but some things will probably
seem
similar to other stories, it's just bound to happen! If you
don't
like it feel free to let me know! I get very nervois about
posting!
lol :)

As
the Hogwarts express bumped along the track, children of all ages
were becoming more and more excited at the prospect of going home
for
the summer. A full two months with no classes, no detentions
and no
Filch. However for one Harry Potter, being excited to
leave Hogwarts
was an entirely new and startling discovery.
Staring out of the window of the carriage he shared with Ron
and
Hermione, thoughts were swirling round Harry's head. Sirius
was free!
He had a Godfather, he had someone to go and live with
for the
summer, someone who actually cared! Well at least he
assumed Sirius
cared, he'd never actually said the words, but
he'd asked him to go
and live with him and, well anything was
better than staying with the
Dursleys..wasn't it?
Harry
shook his head, it was all so complicated. Compared to dealing
with
how he felt now, freeing Sirius had been easy. Thanks to
Hermione's
quick thinking and spellwork Pettigrew had been captured,
sirius
had been cleared and he was on his way to his new home. But
was
he excited? He had been, at first.
All he'd wanted was a
proper family, like Hermione and Ron. But
living with Sirius, was
that going to be a proper family? From the
odd things he'd heard,
Sirius was just as much a kid as him, and
well..not that he
minded, he wanted his Godfather to be fun, but he
couldn't help
wondering what it would be like to have a real father
figure.
The fact remained however, that he and Sirius barely knew
eachother.
Harry desperately wanted that family life, but right
now it just
seemed like it was going to take so much effort to
get there. Harry
sighed to himself, why couldn't everything just
be simple? Nothing in
his life ever seemed to be simple!
Unless
he was over thinking..he could be...he could get to the
station,
sirius would be there and he'd just instantly know
everything was
going to be fine and he'd get the perfect family life
he wanted.
All he could do was hope...

Sirius
Black, was a nervous, bumbling wreck. Standing next to Remus
at
the station, twisting his hands in front of his stomach, he just
couldn't stand still.
He'd waited years for Harry to be
able to come live with him, it was
the only reason he'd survived
Azkaban. But Harry had been a baby.
This was a teenager, a grown
teenager, with hormones and...and...
well other teenage things
and well that was a scary thought.
He'd bonded with Harry the
minute Jame's had placed him in his arms,
and he had bonded again
in the shrieking shack. But what if Harry
hated him?
He
didn't know what Harry expected or wanted from living with him. He
wanted so desperately to give Harry the home he wanted and
deserved.
The home they both deserved. After everything that poor
boy had been
through, he deserved a nice home. But could Sirius
really give him
that? Was he good enough?
Did Harry
expect him to be the fun Godfather? He knew that Harry had
that
impression of him, and yeah..it was a big part of who he
was...this
fun guy. But he wanted to be able to be a role model to
Harry
too, and lets face it, spending twelve years in Azkaban was not
a
very good start! He just didn't know how to go about it, he didn't
know what Harry expected and he just didn't want to dissapoint
him.
Remus had come along for support, and was going to be
living with
them for the summer anyway. He knew Remus loved the
boy as much as he
did, and was an unofficial Godfather to him
anyway. But Sirius
couldn't help that spark of jealousy creeping
in, Harry and Remus had
already bonded...they had had all year.
He just wanted to get this
right, wanted this to be the one
thing, he didn't mess up, so as the
Hogwarts express pulled into
the station...
...All he could do was hope...
TBC...
