Harry Potter x Reader - More Than Best Friends (Third Year)

Reunion!

Why, hello again! I'm writing this next to my cat, and she looks like a long fluffy noodle <3

(Also I'm sorry that this chapter isn't focused as much on (y/n) and Harry, but I thought it would be a cool twist to the story lol) ~Maddie

Warning: Sirius. That's it that's the warning. You may proceed. 

.......... Sirius's Point of View ..........

BLOODY RAT. Can I eat him? I should eat him, save everyone else the trouble of looking at his face- 

   Ew, but he would taste so nasty. He would taste like a rat. Gross. My palate doesn't deserve to be tarnished like that (disregarding the fact that I've been dying in Azkaban for who knows how long)!

   I trotted down the halls as quietly as I could, making sure not to run into Filch (oof, he still works here, that's depressing). In my dog form, it was sort of hard to reach the doorknobs, but at least no one really noticed me. 

   Also, I'm practically all bones (which is depressing as well, let's not talk about it), but it helped make my footsteps even quieter. I wonder if Remus would be able to pick me up and carry me around like a stuffed animal? 

   ... I hope he's okay, wherever he is... Have his transformations been okay? I hope they don't hurt so much still, but they probably do. Ugh, why did I have to get caught up in this mess... 

   At the sound of footsteps, I quickly run into an empty classroom. Huh. It's been so long since I've been here, it's sort of strange, you know? It feels so... small. Of course, it wasn't actually small, it was a massive fricking castle, but it's- familiar. I know every single nook and cranny of this place... It was more of a home than any other place I'd been, maybe besides James' parents' house. 

    I flinch violently when I hear someone sigh, putting down a book loudly. OH MERLIN, the classroom wasn't empty- 

   Okay, just, pretend to be a dog, okay, what do dogs do again? Beg for treats? Something like that? Maybe I should just act like I'm not here? That sounds like a better idea, what if they figure out I broke in?? Can dogs break into Hogwarts?? Probably not-

   I jump behind a bookshelf at the last second. There was just enough space between it and the wall that I should slip into the small space to hide.

   I could hear this person's breathing, so loud that it felt like it was next to my ear. Wow. Spending so much time in silence really did something strange to my hearing. (Well, there was a lot of screaming, but it was mostly silent, I think? Let's not think about it, children.) 

   The person grabbed their book and walked away, back to their desk, and that was when I thought it safe to peek my head out, just to see who it was I was dealing with-

   REMUS!!!!

   What's he doing in the DADA classroom??? Is he a teacher?! That's hilarious! He's pretending to be a rule-abider when really he's the exact opposite; I wonder what sort of trouble he's been up to lately, James would really-

   I stopped that train of thought, reminding myself I am a man on a mission! I mean, I'm not above murder, considering I've been in Azkaban for murder for, like... twelve years. Even though I wasn't even the murderer... 

   But! Remus! REMUUUUSSSS!!!!!

   Before I could stop myself, I barked and jumped out from my hiding spot in excitement. Oops. It appears I've been in my dog form for too long... Um. Well, that's awkward.
