A new chapter Serena Black is up! ❤️

She was right, it was theoretically just a scratch, but millimetres could have cost her her life. He would never have been able to reconcile that with himself, because he still saw in her the little baby from back then, smiling back at him from the photo. Far too delicate and fragile for this cruel world.
In Harry, he saw James instead, his best friend, his brother. He had never been able to avoid it and he couldn't remember the times Remus, even Molly, had been in his ear about not seeing him for what he was not. It was different with Harry, he had to be pushed out of the nest so that he could learn to fly. Even if these words had come from Dumbledore's mouth.
So much could have gone wrong that night, and yet some of the people at the table had small smiles on their faces and the shock in their eyes had been replaced by a faint glow as Fred and George talked about their new shop. Today's shock was fading, while the next one was already on its way, Sirius knew. But he was alive, just like everyone else at this table, and that mattered more to him at this moment than worrying about what was soon to come.
