At Full Brightness

*sequel to You Make Me Lovely*

Things rarely ever turn out exactly the way you imagined.

If you would have asked Sirius if he ever thought he'd have a kid, he would've probably laughed and called you crazy. He never thought of himself as someone who would have kids. It's not that he didn't like them, it's that he was always worried that he would be a bad parent because of everything that's happened. Also, if he were being honest with himself, he used to think that he wouldn't live long enough to get the chance to be a parent.

But, like they say...things rarely turn out the way you imagine. That isn't always a bad thing, though.
