Almost like our child
Albus is discussing Sirius Black with his girlfriend, Minerva.
Albus smiled. "I think that Sirius will be a good influence on the boy."
Minerva agreed, "It will be nice for him to have a father figure in his life again."
Albus sighed. "He is almost like our child, Minnie."
Minerva smirked. "If Harry was our son, he wouldn't be living with the Dursleys, Al."
Albus muttered, "If I could take him away from there, I would. You know that I cannot."
Minerva suggested, "Maybe we could visit him?"
Albus chuckled. "The Muggles already hate him. If we visited while he's at their house, they might get suspicious."
Minerva mumbled, "It was just a thought."
Albus reassured her, "As long as Harry keeps coming back to Hogwarts, he will be safe."
Minerva laughed. "Safe? So far, he has defeated Voldemort twice, destroyed a Horcrux and used a timeturner to save a Hippogriff and his godfather. I would hardly call that safe."
Albus mused, "I wonder what will happen to him this coming year."
