Chapter 2

Chapter 2

At 9:55, Harry sat in the kitchen patiently awaiting Remus’ arrival. The Dursley’s were currently out having dinner at some posh restaurant, celebrating the fact that Harry would be out of their hair for at least one more day (hopefully more) yet slightly uncertain about having a wizard in their house without them being there.
Harry was watching the clock when the cracking sound of displaced air announced Remus’ entrance. In fact Remus had barely materialised when he was knocked to the floor by a flying Harry Potter. He giggled, ignored the slight pain in his lower back after it hit the hard and unforgiving floor and gladly returned the hug from the boy he know considered a son.
“Nice to see you too, Harry. Although a bit of forewarning about flying objects next time might not go amiss.” Remus gently rubbed his back to relieve the minor pain in his back.
“Sorry Remus,” said Harry blushing slightly. “I’m just so pleased to see you. I get so lonely being cooped up here all of the time, with no-one to talk to.”
“I know Harry, I know. Hey, how’s about we go into London for a bit after we have been to the Ministry. I am sure it will not matter too much if we do not come straight back here. I would also like to get to know you a bit better. You can also pick up the results of your O.W.L’s while we are there. We haven’t always had that much time to chat and you’re the last link I have with everyone now that Sirius is gone.” Harry could see Remus’ eyes gleaming with unshed tears in the dim light of the moon that streamed in through the kitchen window.
“Same goes for me as well. You are my father figure now that Sirius has gone. I mean no disrespect to Sirius but I’d like for you to be my honorary godfather.”
“I’d like that very much Harry.” A solitary tear ran down Remus’ cheek. In this bittersweet moment he was happy that Harry though enough to give him such a role of responsibility. He had thought that Harry would look to Albus for his new role model but that he had turned to him meant more to Remus’ than Harry could ever possibly imagine.
“I was also hoping to hear some more stories about the Marauders as I have so few memories of everyone of my own.”
“Of course you can. I’d be more than happy to share my memories so that the Marauders saga can be carried on to the next generation,” Remus declared with over elaborate hand gestures. Harry laughed and gave his new ‘godfather’ one last hug.
“You all set then Harry?” Remus asked whilst extricating himself from Harry’s grip.
“Yes.”
“Then let’s split this joint before your aunt and uncle return. It would be nice to leave without too much of a fight.”
Harry felt the sensation of raw egg running down from the top of his head. Once he was completely covered, he followed Remus into the back garden and they set off for Grimwald place.
