I'll never leave you (Harry Potter and Sirius Black fanfiction)

Untitled Part 6

CHAPTER 6

Harry panted. He opened his eyes to see Molly running towards Remus and Tonks, who were on the floor too. He saw her picking up Tonks. He was exhausted, but tried to get up anyway. Suddenly, he felt a pair of arms helping him. He saw Dumbledore.

"Go to sleep, Harry. Don't worry, we'll take care of the others."

"Sirius…"

"Sirius is okay, he just needs to rest. Go to bed, brave boy."

Harry did as he was told. In his room, there were Ron and Neville too.

"Great job, guys." Harry said. They just nodded, before falling asleep.

6 hours later

Harry woke up. He looked at the clock. 7 in the evening and his stomach was asking for food. Ron and Neville weren't there anymore. He headed down. He got in the kitchen. Everyone was there.

"HARRY!" Molly screamed as soon as she saw the boy. She ran to him and hugged him tight. "DON'T YOU DARE DOING THAT AGAIN! I WAS WORRIED SICK! WHAT IF ONE OF YOU GOT KILLED?"

"Come on, Molly, calm down. They saved the Order from a painful death."

"BUT THEY COULD HAVE GOT KILLED!"

"Yes, but they're here and they're alive. Now sit down, Harry. Are you hungry?"

Harry nodded. He sat down next to Ron and Sirius. His godfather sent him a smile and a proud look.

At meal's end, Dumbledore got up. Everyone stopped chatting and looked at him.

"Now," he said "someone should go upstairs and wake Nymphadora Tonks. Tonight there'll be a very important Order meeting and she should be here."

"I'll call her." Remus said, getting up.

The boys got up sadly, they knew they weren't welcomed at Order's meeting.

"You should sit down." Dumbledore said. "You're joining this meeting."

"Really?"

"Yes, really."

Everyone sat down, waiting for Remus and Tonks.

In Tonks' room

 

Remus opened the door, trying not to do too much noise.

"Tonks…?" he said softly. He reached her bed. She was asleep. She had a bandage around her head and several cuts on her face, but she was Tonks anyway.

"Merlin, she's beautiful when she sleeps…" thought Remus. He gently stroked her hair, trying to wake her up. Suddenly, she opened her eyes.

"Remus?"

"Hi, Dora. Dumbledore says you should come down with us, there's an important meeting."

Tonks tried to sit up. Remus helped her.

"Remus… the last thing I remember… is you taking me in your arms."

"Yeah. Harry and I were saving you from Death Eaters."

"Really? You saved me?"

"Really."

"Thanks, Remus…"

"You should thank Harry and his friends, not me."

"Oh, I should thank you too."

"It's okay. I was glad to do that. Now, can you stand?"

Remus helped her standing up. He took her in his arms on the stairs. When they got in the kitchen, Remus sat her down on a chair and sat next to her.

"Okay, let's start. We have to talk about the DA. What happened today proved that you, guys, are heroes and very brave boys, so I was thinking of you becoming part of the Order."

"NO!" Molly screamed "I WON'T LET THEM!"

"Molly, calm down."

"But they're just boys!"

"And they saved us all." Sirius said.

"Molly, I wouldn't be there if it wasn't for them." Arthur said.

"No need to say that they aren't going on the most dangerous missions," Dumbledore said, "but they're going to give us a big help. They're joining the meetings and they'll try to take other boys by our side, like they've done before. Do you accept?"

"Of course we do!" Harry shouted. Sirius smiled.

"And now, happy news for you: I'm the headmaster of Hogwarts and Umbridge won't be teaching DADA anymore. Fudge now believes you, he can't deny Voldemort's return anymore. You'll return to Hogwarts in September."

The boys screamed of joy.

After the meeting, Molly sent everyone to bed. They all were tired, actually. Harry was following Ron and Neville, when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned around to see Sirius, who had a small smile on his face.

"Come with me." He said. They went to Sirius and Remus' room. The werewolf was lying on the bed, tired, but when he saw Harry, he got up. He hugged Harry tight.

"Old Moony here is being sentimental…" Sirius said with a grin on his face.

"Shut up, Padfoot, you should thank him on your knees, he just saved your life. And he saved mine twice."

"It's okay, I can't imagine a life without you two. I had to save you. And you, Remus, were saving Tonks."

"Come on, Moony, we all know you like her, don't you?"

"I ALREADY TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP, PADFOOT!"

"Okay, okay, calm down!"

Harry laughed. Sirius hugged him.

"Your father would be proud of you, you brave boy."

That was what made Harry's day. He went to bed and fell asleep in no time.
