Harry Potter and the Abusive Childhood

Chapter 7

Hours later, they had everything set up. Harry's new room looked marvelous and Remus's things were all in his new room. They even went grocery shopping. Albus was the secret-keeper and he also has put the Fidelius Charm on the house.

"Thank you Albus." Remus said.

"You are most welcome. You will be getting Harry tomorrow?" Dumbledore asked.

"Yes! As soon as we wake up." Sirius answered.

Dumbledore chuckled at the excitement in his voice. "Listen Sirius, when you see Harry I'm not sure what you're going to find. It could be quite bad and you will need to keep your temper down. Do not touch the muggles unless you wish to go back to Azkaban."

Sirius took a deep breath. "They deserve to be dead or at least in jail."

"Yes I understand. Maybe down the road they will end up in prison but for now leave it be. They have a son. He could end up in an orphanage." Dumbledore said.

"We can take the boy too." Sirius said, earning a surprising glare from Remus.

"We can't just take the boy too." Remus said.

"The boy has an aunt that would most likely care for him if the Dursley's were unable to." Dumbledore said. "Well I'll be off. Remember what I said Sirius."

Sirius stayed silent and just nodded. He couldn't promise anything but he would try. Dumbledore left and the two men walked into their new home.

"I think you should leave your wand home tomorrow, Padfoot." Remus said.

"Yeah, right." Sirius chuckled. "My wand stays with me at all times."

"I'm not kidding, Sirius. I know you're going to do something stupid tomorrow."

Sirius's jaw dropped open. "You can't be serious! I'm not leaving it home. You leave yours home." Sirius answered.

"I'm not Sirius, you are." Remus chuckled. "Listen, I can't take care of him by myself. No matter how much I want to I just can't. If you do anything to harm them you could end up back in Azkaban and Harry will stay right where he is. They could end up killing him, Padfoot." Remus sighed. "Just let me hold your wand tomorrow. I'll have it in my robes in case you need it. Alright?"

"Yes." Sirius answered quietly.

"I'll go make us some dinner. Fish and chips sound good?" Remus asked.

"Yeah. Thanks Moony." Sirius said. He sprawled on the couch and just stared into space as he thought about tomorrow.

A few minutes later, Remus brought the food to the dining areas and tried calling for Sirius to join but he wasn't listening.

"Sirius!" Remus yelled and threw a pillow at him. "Food!"

"Oi! Did you really need to throw something at me?" Sirius asked. "You could have just told me that dinner was ready."

Remus rolled his eyes and sat down at the table. "Sit. Eat. Enjoy."

"Hmm thats pretty catchy. We should write it on the wall in here." Sirius said as he looked around for a place. Remus didn't answer and just shook his head and began eating.

"This is good Moony." Sirius said. "Thank Godric you're here to feed me."

"Don't get used to it. You'll be doing some cooking too." Remus said.
