Chapter 2
You'd think that after that incident Harry would remember to be more cautious. And at first he was, but as time went by and Sirius behavior didn't change, it didn't seem like he got tired of him, or realized how pathetic he actually was, he was still as affectionate as before, as hard as that was to believe.
But no. He started warming up to him more and , yet again, started to forget that not all teens were raised as he was. That he was just different, a freak.
(He didn't want to be a freak, he tried so hard to be normal. To fit in, to blend it in with others. All he wanted was to just be normal, not a, not a...
freak.
But that was all he was, wasn't he?...
A pathetic, little good for nothing
F R E A K)
It all started pretty normally, the day was sunny and it was kinda hot outside. There were cooling charms placed all around the house.
He was at the dining table with Hermione and Ron, as well as the Weasley twins and his godfather, Sirius. At some point they started to talk about sending letters to their friends and I guess Sirius remembered his muggle relatives because he soon asked
" Come to think of it, Harry, how come I've never seen you write to the, uh, Dursly's, was it? Sorry I'm a bit used to calling petunia, evens, not that I know her well. Least I met her, she despised magic, she was calling us freaks-"
At that Harry flinched, cause that was exactly what they called him as well, and that word l didn't have good memories.
"And everything.Kinda like how most purebloods view muggles, just the opposite.But I'm sure that would've changed, seeing as you've been with her for about fourteen years . And besides I'm sure she would've felt guilty about how she treated Lily after... that night, on Halloween."
Here Sirius fell silent as well and silence resigned in the room, seeing as the other occupants of the room had already left, not knowing everything but knowing just enough to guess that that was a sensitive subject, and that his muggle relatives didn't seem to like him that much, curtsy of second year when Ron, Fred and George had to rescue him from them.
" But anyway" started Sirius again, making Harry flinch in surprise, not expecting the other to start talking again so soon."did you already write to them or did you have a fight with them?"
Not waiting for an answer he continued."cus I know at your age you want to follow your own rules and stuff, but sometimes you have to listen to adults, their most likely right. See I was a bit of a rebellious teen and didn't like listening to the adults, even when I knew they were right. So-"
"No." Harry cut him off." We didn't get info a fight but they just don't like me that much, I guess. If I send them a letter, they'll probably be so angry about an owl flying to their house and me writing to them, that I won't be able to guarantee the poor owls safety. Or that they won't be mad about something so 'freakish' happening to them next summer." He said, not thinking much about it.
"... they'll kill the owl?! And, and wait a minute, let's back track a bit, what do you mean they don't like you much? I'm sure that's an exaggeratment. They raised you after all, and you turned out to be a fine, polite young teen. And why would they be mad that you wrote them? I think they would be very pleased."
Harry froze. Panic and fear entering his expression and started to quickly agree with him
" Oh y-ye-yea, you're right, I honestly don't know what I was thinking saying that. I- I'll write them this right know!" Which was a lie but we'll, as long as he wasn't cought.
Now, he wasn't the best at lying. It was pretty noticeable when he was lying but unfortunately, or fortunately for Harry, Sirius was too deep in his denial to notice and didn't think much about it. Quickly forgetting the incident.
( Or at least trying to.)
Which he would regret in the following days but well. That was the future, future that he didn't have a clue about. And this was the present.
Guess there was nothing to do about in now. The regret and guilt he'll feel will come soon. As well as detremation to get his godson out of that household.That day just isn't today.
