Harry walked up the stairs to the creaky house. He had arrived just a few days ago after being ignored for most of the summer. He was shocked to find that the house he was in, was Sirius' childhood home. If home was even the right word for the place. So naturally, he was curious and adventured around.
He reached the top floor and saw three doors, one was a bathroom, one was a plain bedroom that looked like anyone actually stayed in there. The last door was again for a bedroom. Gryffindor posters were hung on the walls next to muggle band posteds. Moving photos were attached and Harry could instantly tell that it was Sirius' room.
Looking at all the photos, Harry instantly recognised his father. How could he not? He saw him every time he looked in the mirror. He seemed happy as he stood with four other people. Remus was easy to spot, with his scars and cardigans. Sirius with his long hair and leather jackets. Peter being the last boy in the photo.
A young girl with shoulder length hair and a white streak stood inbetween Remus and James. His dad kissed the girl and she blushed, the flower crown on her head tipping slightly. He didn't know who she was, no one ever mentioned her.
"That was my favourite picture. I was quite annoyed when I couldn't take it when I ran away" Sirius said from the bedroom door, Remus stood behind him, face dropping slightly as he recognised the photo
"I used a sticking charm, just like everything else in here. My mum hated my friends, so I permanently stuck a picture of them to the house" Sirius asked before Harry could say anything.
"Who is she?" Harry asked, referring to the mystery girl in the photo.
"Quinn March" Sirius answered quietly.
"How come none of you ever spoke about her?"
"Some memories are just too hard to talk about?" Sirius walked into the room and sat on the bed. Remus was still standing in the doorway, staying silent.
What happened to her?"
Remus finally spoke up "She died. Before we ever got to finish school"
No one said anything else. What was there to say?
Another polaroid picture was next to the other, this one wasn't moving. A muggle picture.
It was once again of the five of them. They were head to toe soaked in water, the Black Lake could be seen behind them. Underneath the photo was written -
From your dearest Quinn <3
