Hadrian Potter

Injured Criminals

Hadrian POV

A week had almost passed in the house, it was fun to get know Sirius and Remus again. It wasn't perfect, we had already had loads of arguments. 

Sirius sent me to my room one time for nearly setting light to his couch with my cigarette, though he soon found out that sort of punishment wouldn't work.

So he decided to try "the punch in the face and run away with my cigarettes" technique whenever we did something, 'annoying' or 'bad' which was hilarious to watch but it turned out to be a real bitch. 

Sirius and Remus were the only two Nev and I could act like kids with, they weren't a threat, there were family.

Today we were going to get shit for school, I grumbled through the house way too early in the morning. I changed after a shower, putting on clean boxers, black jeans, a black shirt which clung to me and grey vans.

The shirt showed my aztec tattoos across my arms, which we got in Knockturn after finishing our training, we also had them across our chest and back, they meant a lot to me and to Nev.

"Is it just us going to get shit?" I questioned, whilst sitting down, in now my chair at the table.

"No boys, you've got three Aurors coming along as well as me and Siri," I shot up out of my chair gripping my hair, turning away from table. God I hate this.

"What do they think we're going to do? Blow up the street?" Nev asked, the silent response gave him his answer. Yes, that's exactly what they thought we would do.

I was angry now, I needed to calm down, before I went mad. I rummaged through my pockets of my jeans grabbing my cigarettes and zippo, lighting one with my back still to them.

My body visibly relaxed. I sat back down at the table thinking how shitty things had become, well apart from seeing my godfathers. I looked at the time, 10:05.

"What time are we leaving?" I asked, looking up at concerned faces, except Nev who sat there staring at the table, I threw my pack of cigs at him along with my lighter. He quickly let one my shit back before leaning back in the chair. He was as tense as me.

"We're leaving in 20, you know you won't be out to smoke and fuck about at school right?" Remus said, knowing already what we were like. I smirked.

"We'll be fine." I stated, my tone said it wasn't debatable. 20 minutes later after grabbing my black jacket tucking it under my arm, we were out the door. Well, we just apparated, so much for muggle sayings. 

I refused to put on my jacket, it was nice out, clean, crisp, not too cold. We stepped into the pub, there awaiting us as promised were three aurors, stony faced. Great this was going to be fun, I always liked a laugh, I looked up at Nev to see if he was up for a bit of fun, he was.

We walked around gathering supplies which we apparently needed, it was rather ridiculous, we had learnt all of this shit before, but we weren't up to sharing that information. 

To stop becoming bored we kept putting jinxes on the aurors feet to trip them up which was actually very funny, not to mention childish. As we didn't need wands since we had them when we were kids, we skipped it and stopped for a smoking break.

Nev and I were leaning against a shop window with three aurors stood off to the side. Sirius and Remus were with us discussing something animately, I guess it was something stupid if there bickering was anything to go by.

"No." Sirius stated, confidently. "What do you mean, no?" Remus looked incredulous and a bit amused.

"I won't do it." Sirius said again, he was like big child. I laughed. I had no idea what they were on about and didn't really intend to find out.
