CHAPTER ONE


~ Harry,

Will be arriving at nine tonight to retrieve you.

Dumbledore. ~


Harry sighed in annoyance as he scrunched up the piece of parchment and threw it across the room. The owl that had delivered it twenty minutes ago had left after an owl treat and a ruffle of its feathers.
He groaned again as he looked at the balled up piece of parchment lying against the wall. He really didn’t have the energy or the patience to deal with the twinkly-eyed headmaster right then. Especially since Dumbledore had lied to and deceived him, again.
His godfather wasn’t really dead, it turns out that the inside of the veil had just been a giant portkey to some secret location he was not allowed to know the whereabouts of and on top of that he’d been forbidden from communicating with Sirius or Remus in any way, shape or form.
And it just so happened that he needed to speak with Sirius and Remus really badly and as soon as possible, but nooo Dumbledore had confisctaed Hedwig which meant he couldn’t owl anyone else, not only that but Dumbledore had cast a spell so no owl’s could find his Aunt and Uncle’s house, which had led to a really lonely summer.

Looking at his old, beaten up alarm clock he saw that it had just gone nine o’clock. Standing up he walked over and slammed shut the lid of his school trunk and shrunk it wandlessly.

He grinned at the neat little trick he’d learned. Wandless and wordless magic was something new he could add to his ever growing arsenal.

A knock downstairs interrupted him from his self congratulations. Bending down he grabbed the shrunken trunk and shoved it in his back pocket.

“Alright little one let’s see who discovers you first,” Harry said rubbing his abdomen with a soft smile.

Walking out of the room he headed down the stairs and towards the voices emanating from the kitchen. When he entered Dumbledore stood and smiled at him.

“There you are Harry. Well Petunia it has been a pleasure but I’m afraid we must be off. I have a few errands to run before the night is through,” Dumbledore said politely before walking to stand by Harry, “No need to get up we shall show ourselves out.”

When they had exited the house Harry paused,

“Errands sir?”

“Yes Harry. First off while I’m seeing to a few things you need to convince an old friend of ours to return as the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. Of course he’ll be able to bring his highly unusual breed of dog with him,” Dumbledore said turning to Harry and smiling, while holding out his arm for Harry to grab hold of.

“I’m sure I can convince him,” Harry said grinning as he grabbed onto Dumbledore’s arm and the old man disapparated them away.

“I shall also be leaving you in their capable hands until it’s time to get your school supplies for the new year. Then they’ll accompany you on the….,” Dumbledore was cut off as the door to the old cottage they were approaching burst open.

Before Harry knew what happened he was wrapped in a tight hug and promptly had whatever air that had been inflating his lungs squeezed out with a great exhale.

”It’s good to see you to Sirius but if it’s not too much trouble I’d like to be able to breathe,” Harry gasped out.

“Sorry Harry. It’s just so good to see you,” Sirius said loosening the hug but not letting go

“I thought I’d lost you,” Harry said wrapping his arms around Sirius and burying his face in his godfather’s robes as he felt the tears start to fall.

He would have blamed it on the hormones but he knew it wasn’t that. He was just so happy to see that his godfather was alive and well.

One of his sobs escaped him drawing Sirius’s attention to it. He tto had tears in his eyes but for a whole different reason.
He was crying because he had lied and hurt Harry, and Remus also, something he had never, ever wanted to do.

“Don’t cry Harry,” Sirius whispered as he ran a hand through his godson’s hair, “We’re all okay and together again.”

“Yes and that’s how it’s going to stay. Right Albus?”

Harry pulled away and looked at Remus who was standing in the doorway arms crossed over his chest and a stern look on his face

”Yes Remus, I did promise didn’t I,” Dumbledore said levelly.

”Will you be staying for some tea Albus?” Remus asked the headmaster not even acknowledging his previous answer.

“No I must be on my way. Take care Harry I shall see you soon,” Dumbldore replied before disapparating.

“Well are you two going to stand there all night?” Remus asked cheekily but when the two didn’t move Remus shook his head and walked inside throwing over his shoulder, “You won’t do your secrets any good standing out there in the cold Harry.”

“Secrets? As in more than one?” Harry asked asked as he extracted himself from his godfathers arms and followed the man he’d kind of dubbed his godmother. After all Remus did enjoy mothering him to no end.

Sirius just blinked owlishly before following the two inside stupefied.

”Well yes. My werewolf instincts and senses are saying three,” Remus replied walking over to the stove and pulling off the kettle of water.

“Three,” Harry said smiling softly, his eyes also going soft.

“Okay you lost me,” Sirius said sitting down in the chair at the head of the table, pushing out the chairs to his right and his left with his feet.

Remus and Harry took it for the command it was and sat, Remus to the right and Harry to the left.

“Now Sirius you got to promise you won’t yell,” Harry said to his godfather.

“I promise,” Sirius said quickly while leaning forward, his elbows on the table, instantly intrigued.

“Well you see the three secrets we were talking about are… hmm…. Okay you were like a surrogate brother to dad right. Well then the three secrets would be your surrogate nephew’s children,” Harry said and waited for the explosion.

He really didn’t have to wait all that long.

“WHAT!!” Sirius yelled.

“You promised not to yell,” Harry said quickly and calmly as he accepted a cup of tea from Remus.

”Here,” Remus said grabbing a rather large biscuit off the plate on the table and shoving it in Sirius’s mouth, “So Harry are you going to tell us who the father is?”

“Nah I thought I’d just let you guess,” Harry replied cheekily.

“Do I get a clue?” Remus asked smirking and playing along.

“It’s one of the last individuals you’d ever think of,” Harry replied.

“Please tell me you didn’t sleep the Severus,” Remus said and got the reaction he wanted.

Harrry spat out a mouthful of tea while Siruis choked on the last of his biscuit.
Remus grinned as Harry started spluttering. He cast a cleaning spell on the table cleansing its worn surface.

“That was uncalled for Moony,” Harry whined.

“Tell me and I won’t have to go making guesses like that,” Remus replied smirking at the young Gryffindor.

“Teach Defence Against the Dark Arts again this year and I’ll tell you everything you want to know,” Harry propositioned looking Remus directly in the eyes.

”You know I can’t do that Harry,” Remus replied looking away.

“Dumbledore said you can,” Harry argued.

“What about Sirius. I can’t leave him here alone. He gets into enough trouble as it is,” Remus argued back.

“Hey! I’m sitting right here you know,” came Sirius’s indignant reply only to be ignored.

“Dumbledore said Snuffles can come too,” Harry explained, “And I really want you there. Pleeasssseeee.”

Harry gave Remus his best puppy dog eyes and instantly knew he had the argument in the bag.

“Alright, alright, enough with the eyes already,” Remus said sighing but giving Harry a soft smile.

“Okay again you’ve lost me,” Sirius butted in.

“It’s not all that hard to do,” Harry replied cheekily

“Why you little…,” Sirius said slinging his arm around Harry’s neck and ruffling the raven locks with his knuckles.

“I’m sorry,” Harry cried out laughing and trying to get loose, “Let go Sirius.”

Remus chuckled at the two before clearing his throat, “I’m still waiting for the name of the father.”

“Yes and I’d like to know too. How’d you get pregnant? Why didn’t you owl me?” Sirius said spouting out questions of his own.

Remus shut him up by shoving another biscuit in his mouth.
Sirius grumbled through the the mouthful, glaring payfully at Remus.

”I would of owled you but Dumbledore confiscated Hedwig and cast a spell on the house so owls couldn’t find it,” Harry explained to Sirius before smirking, “And I got pregnant by having sex. I thought you were old enough to know about these things. Dind’t anyone ever tell you about the ‘birds and the bees’ cause I sure as hell know that someone forgot to tell me that men can get pregnant.”

He laughed when Sirius whacked him across the back of the head.

“You still haven’t told us who the father is,” Remus said knowing full well Harry was trying to skirt around it.

Harry sighed and looked at his stomach, “You have to promise that you won’t tell them about me being pregnant. I don’t want them to know.”

“We promise,” Remus said and Sirius nodded his head.

“It’s Malfoy,” Harry whispered.

“Elder or Younger?” Remus asked

Harry gave him a ‘What do you take me for’ look.

“Younger,” Remus confirmed

“By Merlin how did that happen? I thought you two hated eachother,” Sirius said looking at his godson in confusion.

“We do, I mean we did,” Harry stumbled before sighing, “It was on the way back to King’s Cross after school finished and he and his goons attacked me. The DA was there and helped me out. We cursed them pretty bad and they looked bloody awful when we left them. I went back to my compartment but I got thinking. I mean he’d just lost his dad, even if it was to Azkaban, and he was just angry and I felt awful for cursing him so bad. So I went back and dragged him into an empty compartment and undid the curses. We started yelling at each other and then he kissed me. Well you know the saying, one thing led to another and that’s how I got pregnant.”

”Pent up sexual tension if you ask me,” Sirius said nodding his head.

“We didn’t,” Remus said grinning, “So why don’t you want Draco to know?”

“I don’t want anyone to know, well except you and Sirius, not Dumbledore, not Ron nor Hermione. Not even Draco,” Harry replied adamantly.

“Alright pup we get it. No-one’s to know. But Why?” Sirius asked.

“I guess it’s because I’m afraid. The more people who know about it the greater the danger to the babies. With Voldermort and his drones I just don’t want to take the chance. Not to mention Dumbldore would probably make me have an abortion, which is not going to happen,” Harry explained to them, “There are a few other reasons but those are the main ones.”

“I think you’re right about Dumbledore,” Remus said softly, “And I can understand your need to protect your children. That’s the way I feel about you.”

“Same here,” Sirius added, “Remy and I consider you our pup and we will do anything to protect you but enough with the mushy stuff. When Dumbldore said you were coming to stay for the rest of the holidays I got planning.”

The three talked about what they were going to do for the rest of the holidays until Harry yawned widely. Spotting it the two elder Gryffindors ushered Harry up to the room they had prepared for him.

Harry was asleep before his head hit the pillow.
