Chapter 2
Harry woke up to bright lights and people quietly talking. For a moment he thought he was back in the Gryffindor dorms. Then he heard crying on his left. He opened his eyes and saw lupin in a plastic chair, head in his hands, sobbing. "Professor lupin, what's the matter?" Lupin looked up as though shocked harry would speak to him. Lupin started to cry again and said "I'm so sorry harry I'm so sorry should never have had to put you through this mess. I should never have trusted myself enough to go back to hogwarts!" Harry was confused. The last thing he could remember was lupin turning into a werewolf. Everything after was just a blur. "What are you talking about, professor, you're the best professor that we've had at hogwarts." It seemed like lupin was going to say something, but just then sirius walked in, looking grave. "Sirius, you shouldn't be here! They'll recognize you!" Harry exclaimed. Sirius gave a hollow chuckle and said "No, when I demanded that I go to court, they got pettigrews wand and checked for the last spell. It was the curse they thought I had done. So they're still searching for him, but I'm not wanted anymore." Harry sighed with relief. But there were still more pressing matters to attend to. "Why am I in a hospital bed? The last thing I can remember is professor lupin transforming, and that's it" lupin appeared slightly surprised by that. "So you don't remember what I did?" Lupin said, tears still running down his cheeks. "No, why?" Harry said warily. "Lupin transformed last night, you're in a hospital bed, he's crying, and me not being wanted anymore is the least of my worries, put together the pieces, harry!" Sirius exclaimed mostly sad, a little angry. Harry was kind of scared, so he asked "I... I still don't get it. What happened?" Sirius could only say "check your arm" this time. Harry slowly pulled up the hospital sleeve and saw a bite mark there. Sudenly everything else came back to him from last night. Harry was so shocked that all he could do was take his hands through his already messy hair and mumble "oh my god..." over and over again. A nurse came in and said "Oh, Harry, you're awake!" But before she could leave to tell someone harry asked "Am I going to be a werewolf?" She flinched and with a sympathetic expression, slowly nodded, as afraid harry would lash out at her. Harry couldn't believe it. "Am I going to be one for the rest of my life?" Again, she slowly nodded. Well, time to accept the facts harry thought. And yet at the same time he simply couldn't believe it. He turned to Sirius. "Am I still going to move in with you?" He asked, afraid of the answer. If he went beck to the dursleys, they would probably starve him to death, even without knowing he was a werewolf! Sirius looked pained. "Um, well, you see,-" Harry cut him off "You don't want me because I'm a werewolf." "No! Of course not! You don't know how much I want to have you move in with me, it's just that dumbledore wanted you to stay with the dursleys. Because you're related to them..." "But technically you are related to me, too" Harry stated. Sirius looked confused, but hopeful "How?" "Salazar slytherin." Harry said. Sirius frowned "not close relation enough" "oh..." "I'm sorry I really want to stay but I got to go" "But why?" "Its a meeting, I'm looking for a new job" harry must have looked crestfallen, because Sirius bent down and gave harry a hug, then said "don't worry, I'll visit you often" then gave a wavering smile, and left.
