what about a small tale for my child? (wolfstar and drarry and some snucius)

1. Cuddles between adults

Warning: I do believe this chapter is safe, just some small talk about heart break.

That night Harry layed in bed looking over the events that had happened that day. The teachers were nice and they all seemed to know his godfathers. So that was his mom's school. He had the chance to be part of something his mom was. Even though she died when he was one and had very little to no memory of her it still seemed like something he could have to remember her by. They were even gonna let Hiss come to school. Sirius had even faced that teacher named Snape. It seemed like that bad blood was no longer toxic. They were all open with his godfather's relationship too. No one mentioned the ring on Snape's hand, but maybe they already knew. It didn't seem like though.

Harry had noticed something that the others had not. Technically he noticed two things, but he didn't know that no one else knew about the ring. The main thing he saw was the sad, lost look in the teachers eyes when he asked Sirius's last name. It reminded Harry of the old look in tala's, the owner of the cafe they went to earlier, eyes when she saw Sirius and Remus together or any couple really. Her fiance had gone missing for a year and a half. She was told he had died, and any time she was his godparents it reminded her of her lost love. Tino, her now husband hadn't died though, he was actually trying to get back to town. He got lost and someone had found him and healed him up while on a ship. It just took some time for him to make it back. That someone actually helped out with orders from overseas now. It's weird how these things turn out.

But that look that she used to have in her eyes reminded Harry so much of the look Snape had made. It made Harry think that maybe he had a loved one who he couldn't be with. He had the ring and that look in his eyes, it just made Harry think about it. Which made him think about Sirius and then his godfather's relationship, to the time when they would all cuddle together and they would tell him stories. Like the one where a wolf met a stray dog and they became friends, even after the wolf hurt the dog on accident. 'I wonder if I could have a friend like that', sure he had Hiss, but there was something that the snake could not give Harry.

The boy layed there for what seemed like days, but was only an hour or so before he ended up drifting off to sleep as Hiss made his way past the living room and into a hole in the wall by the backdoor. There was a rat living there and the reptile was determined to find it. On the couch he just passed layed Remus using Sirius as his pillow. They had the radio on a channel that played  good music this time of night and were enjoying the songs they grew up with. It was quite calming to just be there and cuddle. It was a much needed cuddle. There was a lot to think about, not only Harry got an offer to go to school, but Remus did as well. Before they left McGonagall asked them who had been teaching Harry. She told them that there was gonna be a teacher opening for social studies/history classes later that year. The current teacher was going to be leaving before winter break to move. Her words were "I know you didn't go to school to be a teacher, but seeing as how you taught Harry there should be no problems with us helping you get the requirements for the job, in my opinion you'd make a fine and wonderful professor Mr. Lupin." Sirius didn't think it was a half bad idea. His husband was a good teacher and loved to help Harry learn.

Remus was unsure of the idea of having a full time job. Especially one with being a teacher. He believed McGonagall when she told him that he could easily get the job that wasn't a problem, but what about Sirius. He would just be left here alone all day. Remus remembered what happened last time he was left alone for 2 days. He and Harry had left to help with a new shipment of books so they could get some for half price and first pick. By the time they were done it was too late to drive back and Remus was tired so they spent that night at the shipyard. They called Sirius to tell him what had happened and not to worry, but when they came home Sirius looked dead on the floor with food littered around him and the radio on some classical station. Remus didn't want to think about what would happen if he left everyday and then had more work to do when he came home. Sirius may not seem like someone who would get depressed and feel lonely, but he definitely was.

"Hey Remus, can I ask you something?" "Sure." "Do you like teaching Harry?" "Of Course I do, I love teaching him, but this isn't about homeschooling is it?" "No, I mean if you like teaching then you should at least give the job a try. You're good with people of all ages and make learning fun." "But what about you Sirius?" "What about me?" "You'll be left here all alone, by yourself for at least 8 or so hours, not including time after school, 5 days out of 7. Then I'd probably still have work to do at home. Sirius you get lonely so easily. I just can't shut you out like that." "Oh Remus." Sirius gave a sigh and brought his hand to a now sitting Remus's face. "You wouldn't have to worry about me. You'd still be here everyday, and it's not like you wont get to spend time with me any more. Sure you'd be busy, but you'd still be here. I know you won't shut me out, no matter how busy you get." Sirius gave Remus a small reassuring kiss before finishing, "Besides even if I do get too lonely I can just come to school with you, or you could call in sick and stay with me for a day. I don't want to be the reason you don't take this job. I know we don't need it, but if you want to do it then do it." Remus smiled a bit at how loving Sirius was. It was his turn to give Sirius a small kiss and sink into his touch. "Okay, we can think more about this tomorrow, for now I just want you to hold me and feed me chocolate." "Whatever you say you chocoholic." Sirius got a bag of chocolate from the table by the couch and started to unwrap the sweets.

They were cuddled together for who knows how long when they started to drift off to sleep, but as soon as Sirius closed his eyes he was awoken by the sound of a crash and something falling over. Being startled from the sound he shot up from where he was laying, knocking over a sleeping Remus to the floor. "Did you hear that!?" Sirius asked before realizing what he had done. "Sorry Remus." Sirius helped Remus stand up as he asked his question again. "Did you hear that, it sounded like it came from the attic." "No, I didn't hear anything." Just then another sound came from up above as something was knocked over again. "Okay...I definitely heard that."
