I closed my eyes, a little worried to what Sirius's reaction would be. My father was currently the most feared wizard at the moment, who could react calmly to that?

Sirius remained silent.

"Say something. Please?" I begged quietly. He stood up and began to pace.

"Why didn't you tell me? After all this time..."

"I..I..." I didn't know why I never told him, maybe it was because I thought he would leave me, I thought all my friends would leave me.

"I don't know, I didn't want to scare you away?" It came out more of a question than answer.

Sirius spun on his feet, "What do you think I am? A coward? How could you think I would leave you!? My whole family supported him, hell he's been in this house before! " Sirius yelled. "How could I be scared of the fact that he is your father? Please, my family worshipped him; he was pretty much their god". He added his voice quieter.

Of course, why didn't I think of that?

"Sorry". I mumbled.

He strode over to me and cupped my face with his hands, "I would never leave your side for something like that," He gently pecked my forehead.

I closed my eyes; all this was giving me a headache, "Wait, what do you mean he's been in this house before?"

Sirius resumed his place next to me, "When my cousin Bella and brother Regulus joined him he came here to...you know...give them his mark".

"Oh."

"I can actually see it now, you have his nose." Sirius grinned, trying to diffuse the tension.

I laughed loudly and shook my head. "What am I going to do with you?"

"Come on". He stood up, pulling me with him.

"What are we doing?" I asked confused.

"I'm taking you out on a date". He announced.

My eyes widened in realization. We had never been on a date. We were always at each other's side during Hogwarts there was not really need for one. "O...ok," I smiled, "Formal or casual?"

Sirius thought about it for a moment, "Casual".

~O~O~O~

"That. Was. So. Much. FUN!" I puffed walking off the frozen lake.

Sirius groaned and rubbed his back, "Totally!" He replied sarcastically.

I laughed and untied my ice skating laces, took of the skates and put on my shoes.

"I'm glad you liked it, are you ready for the next bit?" Sirius asked taking my skates from me and vanishing both his and mine with his wand.

"There's more?" I asked excitedly.

Sirius smiled and waved his wand, "Conpareo". A picnic basket and rug appeared before us. The rug began to unfold itself while the basket opened and small items danced out of his. Candles, plates, cutlery and even a record player. Flames emerged from the candles and flickered in the slight breeze.

"Kreacher." Sirius called. The grumpy elf apparated with two platters of food. One was filled with potatoes, pumpkin, carrot and all sorts of meat while the second carried a variety of fruit.

"Master and Mistress, your meal is served". He placed the food on the rug, bowed to us and then with a crack he was gone.

"Oh Sirius! This is wonderful!" I exclaimed, pouncing onto him and kissing him on the cheek. Sirius chuckled and nuzzled into my shoulder.

"I love you". He whispered in my ear.

I smiled, "I'm hungry".

Sirius's head fell back and he let out a loud laugh, "I will take that as an 'I love you' back".

I giggled and swiftly kissed his lips, "Good".

Sirius grinned and sat down on the rug, I followed, "I hope Kreacher hasn't poisoned it".

"Don't be so mean". I scolded, hitting his chest lightly. The food did look amazing. I picked up a plate and immediately helped myself to some potatoes and roast beef with gravy.

Sirius grabbed a bit of everything, "I hate to admit it, but I do like Kreacher's cooking". He mumbled taking a bite of a chicken wing.

"This reminds me of the Hogwarts feasts". I replied biting into the beef.

Sirius nodded in agreement, his mouth to full to talk. "I miss that place". He said after swallowing.

"So do I".

This night was one of the best nights of my lives. Sirius had put so much effort into making it special. First the ice-skating on the frozen, moonlit lake, even though neither of us could skate and continued to fall over multiple times, was incredibly fun. Secondly; sitting there, overlooking the lake, candles flickering around us, soft music playing from the trees, drinking delicious wine was just so romantic.
