Chapter Text

Harry stretched slowly and shifted in Sirius' lap.

"You up now?" asked Sirius.

Harry moaned slightly. He didn't want to get up, he was too comfortable and this year was not his best. Despite all the mental barriers that kept Voldemort out of the more...critical parts of his mind, he still felt...angry...at times. He managed to push him out to the far corners where he could not do any real damage, but not before Voldemort could leave behind a small stain in his mind. It took a long time for him to eradicate it, like a nasty smudge on some of Aunt Petunia's silver.

Harry came to find that it would take quite a bit of effort to shove him out and keep him out, but if he was to maintain the farce of being weak and only able to succeed through the power of Lady Luck...he'd have to allow the man access, but only through certain well prepared points and areas.

Harry turned over slightly, so he was facing Sirius' stomach.

"Guess not, huh?" said Sirius with a chuckle.

Officer McFinn looked at the homely little scene, he felt slightly jealous of the man holding his Harry. He could still almost feel the ghost weight of Harry in his arms from time to time, his laughter still ringing pleasantly through his ears, the joy bubbling forth for something that would amuse the both of them.

He looked around at the rest of the school, emotions were mixing and clashing between all of them, proud that Harry was taking the high road and angered at Hermione and Ron for achieving prefectship. Honestly, he knew Harry was proud of them and would stand beside them and help with all he could, and he could see why the students and a few of the adults were acting this way.

They were becoming just as possessive and protective of his "Sport" as he was...well, close to it anyway. Sadly, the friends of Harry were going to be catching a lot of flak during these books...just like the boy said.

"Luna Lovegood." said Officer McFinn.

Luna smiled serenely, but was focusing on the third sconce to the left of where Ron and Hermione sat, as if something were there.

"Shocked the hell out of me, I didn't figure I would ever get up before him." said Ron.
