The trial and everything were scheduled two days later, and Sirius was freed along with his record being cleared and being paid back ten thousand gallons for every year he was in Azkaban. It was shortly after that case ending that I made a case to have my custody given to him since I was currently living in an unfit home, that caused an uproar and was forced to court that same day. Two weeks later Sirius and I were packing up our things and taking a portkey to our newly bought home. I loved the fact that Sirius didn't try to control me and allowed me to decorate the room however I wished to, he also gave me the biggest room which was nice of him.

"Now for some house rules, always make sure to let me know when you're going out or when you plan to have people over, also try to get a decent amount of sleep!" Sirius said as he came into my room later.

"That's it?" I asked in surprise as I moved from the chair facing the windows to sit on my bed.

"I trust you Harry, plus for the most part I will be spending most of the time dealing with the mind healer and the planned visits from Amelia who plans to check in." He answered back and after taking one last look around him moved forward to ruffle my hair and tell me that if I needed him that he was only a few doors away. Shaking my head, I finished unpacking placing Charon's owl stand near the recliner chair by the windows. Thanatos's snake tank was placed on the side table beside my bed even though I doubted he would stay inside it during the summer. It surprised me how fast the Minister and Council gave in to allowing Sirius to have 'custody' over me, but then again I did ask for it and seeing as how I'm their 'savior' they immediately gave in as long as Sirius received weekly visits with a mind healer and allowed Amelia to stop by to check in. Sending out letters to Neville and Blaise with my new address and how they were more than welcome to come by at any time along with another smaller letter to the twins thanking them for allowing me to come over along with being there for me through the whole reveal of the rat. The last letter was the hardest to write and took the longest time to put words to parchment.

Tom,

Things have so far gone to plan, if you haven't heard yet then know I have gotten Sirius free and his named cleared along with getting my custody turned over to him. I would like to meet up once you have gone through with the ritual, I do not mind keeping that piece safe, we have much we need to discuss. On another note now that you have collected your trophies how do you plan on dealing with Dumbles? He knew what I was, meaning he knows about the others. I have moved into a new place out of London that while having an amazing view has made it more difficult traveling wise unless I wish to use a portkey to all future functions. Also, you will find enclosed inside the warded box the diadem, I also know where the real locket is if you wish for me to retrieve it.

Looking over the letter that was written in parseltongue I couldn't help but still feel slightly paranoid so to feel safer about it I made sure to not really say much even if those in the know would be easily able to figure it out. But the ingenious in it all is that by only barely trying to hide the true context to my letter will make any who aren't Riddle second guess themselves and cause them to try to look for another meaning to the words. I also knew that if he was to go through with the ritual he would need the diadem so I made sure to have it kept in the chest the Goblins had warded for me and just shrink it and place it in the envelope to be sent to him.

"Nice digs Little Lord." Blaise's voice breaks me out of my thoughts as I send the last of the letters besides his since he was already here through the Letter Box.

"Should I even wonder how you already know my new address?" I teased as I moved to once again sit in the armchair by the windows.

"My mother isn't just the Black Widow my friend." Was the only response he gave as he moved further into the room before deciding to sit on the edge of my bed while facing me.

"I was just going to send you a letter but never mind that now. Tom has made headway in dealing with that bit of sanity issue." I say while petting Thanatos who was wrapped around my waist and shoulders, he had been slowly growing bigger making it harder for him to rest on my shoulders.

"Good. Will you be making plans to visit him then soon?" Blaise asked as he relaxed back onto my bed causing me to roll my eyes at his impudence.

"I will once everything has been finished. Why exactly have you shown up? Don't get me wrong I don't mind you being here I'm just curious." I say calmly as I relaxed back into my seat while he rolled over to lay on his side with his front facing me.

"My mother has set her sights on her newest husband and honestly this one I hope dies quickly." Blaise complained while thinking of the annoying but rich man who his mother planned to seduce into her web.

"Then you my friend are more than welcome to stay here for as long as you like." I say while thinking on how much more open Blaise and Neville were being with me.

"Thanks, Little Lord." Blaise said giving me a grin and thumbs up before rolling off the bed to unpack a few of his things from his trunk he had shrunken in his pocket.

"Sirius we will be having a guest for the next couple days!" I shouted out and waited until hearing a affirmative before moving to get up and place Thanatos in his tank that would magically grow with him but be the same size on the outside before moving to take a shower before bed. While some plans have been completed and could be checked off my list many more still awaited me and, in that moment, as I relaxed, I couldn't help but once again by thankful that this was now my life problems and all.
