Ok... Here we go...

HI!

Disclaimer: I don't own any of this. Everything conserning HP is JK's work, and I respect that. Eventhough I really wish I owned Sirius... Maybe I can ask him for Christmas... And Remus too!

Summary: AU Sirius is a young social worker. One day he get's a call from the police station. Sirius tries to help the teenager as good as he can, but how good is good enough? And how good is too good? I'm terribly sorry, but I'm really no good at summaries... Rated M for later chapters, it's all safe now!

Chapter 1...

It was a rainy Tuesday morning in mid-October as Sirius entered the police office of a small town called Pool which situated itself near the sea. He had been called just a few hours ago by the head of the police department saying they had found a boy of approximately 16 years old. Sirius, the good social worker that he was, has agreed to come and talk to the boy whom did not seem to open up to anyone else. It was even possible that he had to place this kid in a family that wanted to take care of him. However Sirius who himself had been in a few foster houses while growing up knew that it wasn't all that easy. In fact it was quiet hard. You never knew how long you'd be in one place, or if the people would be nice, if you'd belong with them, or if they were going to hurt you as well…

He stopped at the desk where he had stood a couple of times these last few months. He had the feeling that this place would never change.

A blond woman that stood behind the desk looked at Sirius with wondrous eyes.

'Can I help you sir?' She had a friendly voice.

'Yes, my name is Sirius Black. I was called about a boy who was found last night.' Sirius said in a serious tone. 'He was found in a dark alleyway.'

'Oh yes, you must be the social worker,' It wasn't a question; it was more of an assumption. However Sirius did nod, which made his long dark hair fall in an unnaturally perfect way. The woman came from behind the desk. 'Follow me than…' As they walked a path that Sirius had already walked a few times and therefore knew by hard the woman told him that the boy did not say a word at all. They had no idea who he was, or where he came from.

'Hopefully you can help him.' The woman said as they reached the department where the young boy was sitting right now. 'Evelyn is still inside. You know the drill right?'

'Of course…' Sirius said trying to be friendly to the young woman. She nodded her head, and turned around, walking away and eventually leaving him alone in the dark and grim hallway. Sirius knocked on the door, and after a few seconds he could hear a more familiar voice telling him to come in.

He opened the door and found himself in a white painted room with 3 desks some old computers and lots and lots of paperwork. It seemed as if he was back at His own bureau, because it looked exactly the same.

'Good morning Evelyn.' Sirius said in his friendly tone. He and Evelyn went way back. She was the one who found him when he himself was practically living on the street. She was also the one that helped him get off.

'Good morning Sirius.' The woman in her late forties said. Evelyn was a tall and skinny woman, with brown hair with a grayish shine. The wrinkles underneath her eyes showed that she too had not had an easy life. 'How are you today?'

'Pretty good.' Sirius said smiling. 'How about you?'

'I'm still alive.' The woman too smiled at Sirius, who she for some reason saw as the son she never had. 'But I'm glad you are here. The boy we found needs help. We think he ran away, and got attacked, and possibly raped, but we can't be sure. There hasn't been anyone here to ask for him…'

'Where is he?' Sirius asked suddenly more worried. Evelyn made it seem that there was something terribly wrong with this boy who still remained nameless.

'Just over there.' Evelyn nodded to a corner where a few chairs stood, a place where people could wait. Sirius turned around at looked at the boy.

He was quiet skinny as if he had not eaten in a long time, his shaggy brown hair grew wildly, and you could see that it grew like that naturally. He was looking down to the floor, but Sirius could see the huge bruises he had on his arms and face which made Sirius realize that the poor kid probably had them everywhere. He seemed fragile, and yet he defiantly looked 16, Sirius even thought him to be older.

He walked over to the boy tying not to scare him off. As Sirius stood by his side, he took the seat to the right of the boy, which made him look up in surprise. He looked at Sirius for the first time since he had entered the room, and Sirius could see that even though this boy has all those bruises, that split lip, and that cut on his forehead he still had the most beautiful eyes Sirius had ever seen. They were like pools of gold.

'Hello, my name is Sirius.' He started off, seeing as the boy would not start talking himself. 'What's your name?' The boy did not say a word, and just kept staring at Sirius intently. 'I'm only here to try and help you. I know it's hard to trust a complete stranger but I really want to help you. If it helps, I'll tell you a bit about myself…' Sirius was not sure but he thought he saw the boy give a soft nod. 'SO my name's Sirius, I live here in Pool with a woman named Anna. I got placed in my first foster home at the age of 10, because my parents weren't the nicest of people, at least not to me. Apparently I was never the best foster child, and I eventually ran away from my last foster home when I was 16. After that my best friend's parents took me under their wing. When I turned 18 I went to live on my own, well together with Anna. After studying I started working as a social worker, and I have been doing that for the last couple of months. I'm about to turn 21 now, so I'm also still very young, and I do know how you feel right now.'

As Sirius was done talking he realized that the boy was still watching him, with his intense gaze. Sirius asked him again what his name was but he still did not get an answer out of the boy. Sirius stood up again, and went to Evelyn.

'He isn't willing to speak is he?' Sirius asked the older woman, who was currently sitting behind her desk.

'No not really.' Evelyn agreed with him. 'He's just scared. What will you do with him?'

'I'd try to find his parents, but as he's not willing to speak I'm afraid I'll have to find him an institution that can offer him more help, and then when I find he needs it maybe a foster home or a ------'

'No please don't take me to another foster home! I don't want to go there anymore.' It was the first they had heard of the boy, and his tone was scared, fearful. Sirius turned around to the boy at once, and he could see that the boy was freaking out.

'I don't want to go!' He started yelling while he shook violently. 'Please don't put me in an institution or a foster home. I don't want to go. Please don't make me!'

Sirius walked over to the boy again, and tried to shush him. But the minute Sirius came too close the boy bucked away.

'Don't hurt me…'

'It's ok, it's ok. I promise I'm not going to hurt you…' Sirius said in a calm but very concerned voice. Although he was a teenager, he seemed to be broken up on the inside. 'And I'm not going to make you do anything that you don't want to do, but you have to let me help you.'

The boy seemed to calm at Sirius' words and his voice. It was strong, yet sweet, and although Sirius himself did not know why it had a calming tone to it.

'Tell me what you want, anything it's ok.' It was weird that now that 'the boy' was standing at well Sirius could see that he was just a few inches shorter than Sirius himself. The boy seemed to be quiet again, but he did not have to speak for Sirius to know what he needed, because just a minute after Sirius had asked what he wanted, the boy stomach started rumbling. 'Are you hungry?'

The boy just nodded.

'Than we'll go for a bite to eat, my car is just outside. Is that ok with you? I won't take you anywhere you don't want to go.'

The boy nodded again.

'Perfect.' Sirius sent the boy a reassuring smile. 'Let's go then.'

As the boy was getting ready to leave with Sirius, Sirius talked to Evelyn.

'What are you going to do then?' Evelyn asked.

'I don't know, but I just feel that he needs my help.' Sirius could not explain why, but something about this boy just hit him like a ton of bricks. 'I need to help him.'

Evelyn nodded, while smiling at the young man.

'Hopefully you'll be able to.' She aid as they found the boy was ready. 'Good luck to both of you.' Just as they were about to leave the older woman added something to Sirius. 'Say hi to James, Anna and Lily will you?

'Of course I will.' Sirius answered. 'See you soon Evelyn. Come on… You…' He added towards the teenager standing next to him.

As they were walking down the hall, Sirius found himself staring at his silent companion. He had something Sirius could not place, but it had a ring to it even at this moment, while this boy was obviously very hurt and scared.

'Remus…' Sirius suddenly heard a voice, and it took him sometime to realize that it was the boy who had spoken.

'What?' Sirius said completely ripped out of his thinking-path.

'My name, it's Remus.' The boy stated. 'Remus Lupin.'
