Chapter One; Little Boy in Blue

"For the thousandth time; No!" Sirius said with exasperation.

Remus leaned up against the door jam of their bathroom, smiling slightly at the man with long, wavy black hair before him. "You can't even come up with a good reason why you are against the idea, Paddy."

"Where's my hairbrush?" Sirius demanded, ignoring the smirk that widened on Remus' lips.

"Hairbrush?" Was the not so innocent reply.

"Not again?!" Sirius whined. "Mooney!"

Remus shrugged guilty. "It's the only one that is strong enough for my back fur. Sorry, babe."

Sirius shuddered. "Just shave it next time then!" He snapped.

The werewolf winced. "I am not much of a razor rash fan, Sirius, you know that." He went and kissed the man on the cheek before leaving to make them breakfast.

"Bastard!" Sirius called back softly, he always had a hard time being angry with Remus after he kissed him.

Remus chuckled. "Love ya too!"

Deep down, Remus Lupin had always loved Sirius Black, he had just been too much of a chicken to admit it when they were school boys. He had been too chicken to do much of anything when he was younger.

Upon their seventh year was when everything in life had started twisting about.

Lily and James confessed their love after James had matured up when he realized she was not and never would be impressed with his high ranked ego.

James even had the guts to make a public apology to the entire school, personally naming those he had ridiculed the whole time he had been there. Particially expressing this to the Slytherin, Severus Snape, who James had fought with since day one. Apparently, the two had some sort of inside hate for each other because they both loved Lily. In the end, James had won the girl. Lily had only ever saw Severus as a friend.

Severus was still cold around the James and Sirius, but they all tolorated each other for Lily's sake. Remus didn't consider Severus all too terrible, especially after Lily had told him of his home life. It was no wonder the wizard was so reserved. Severus and him had been able to have a neutral relationship, and could have a delectible conversation when James or Sirius weren't around. Remus assumed Lily had helped Severus understand the werewolf's own issues, because the cracks about howling at the moon no longer were heard coming from him.

After Hogwarts, James and Lily married and had a darling of a boy who they named Harry James Potter.

Peter Pettigrew had recently married a lovely muggleborn witch who enchanted him with her extraordinary use of Charms. Sirius often teased Peter that he had been put under a love spell, because he was immensely liberated when it came to Donna Harper. Of course Peter would quip back with a comment about Sirius' new found sex life, and if they weren't friends, Peter would have been hexed to Austrailia and back several times by now.

Sirius and Remus started dating three years ago after Lily had talked Remus into telling Sirius the truth about his love for him. Sirius felt it was time for a change, admitting that he also having feelings for Remus but had been afraid people would tease him for it. Remus understood, Sirius had been known to be THE Ladies' Man of Hogwarts. To take their relationship to the next level, last year, Remus moved into 12 Grimmauld Place, Sirius' newly appointed residence

As of last week, Severus had informed Lily and Remus that he had a date with a lovely Muggle woman, and he had asked them to wish him good luck with it.

As far as what they were all doing with their lives, together, Lily and Severus owned an advanced brewing shop North of Hogsmead. They called it 'Emerald Stones'.

James taught quidditch at Hogwarts, realizing how much fun it was teaching children how to fly and do tricks; having done so with Harry.

Sirius was fascinated by Muggles, so, surprisingly enough, he had enrolled himself into a Muggle University strictly to observe their behavior. Him and Arthur Weasley, who was also fascinated with Muggles, were becoming good friends because of this.

Peter helped his wife with her family's sheep farm. He enjoyed managing it, being in control of something for once in his life. He was doing a swell job at it too, increasing their profit from last year by sixteen percent.

Remus held weekly lessons for young witches and wizards, educating them about the magical world, how to control their tempers to avoid accidental magic, and offering them a good listening ear should they need it.

"Kreacher can do that, Master, sir." Sirius' house elf offered to Remus when he saw him frying the bacon.

"Nonsense, my little house friend." Remus waved him off. "Sit down, I have made a plate for you too."

"Kreacher is much appreciated of Master Remus Lupin, sir." Kreacher croaked with a bow.

"And, I, of you, Kreacher." Remus magically transferred their complete breakfast to the table. "Paddy, breakfast!"

"I'll be right down!"

"Master Remus cooks much better than Kreacher, sir." The house elf complimented after a bite. Remus swore he saw his ears wiggle with happiness for a split moment, but he pretended to not notice.

"You say that every time, Kreacher, I think you're just thankful that you don't have to do it."

"Kreacher likes serving Kreacher's master, sir." He said it like he was forced to.

"USELESS, GOOD FOR NOTHING-"

"Shut up, you old hag!" Sirius commanded with a growl. A thump followed. Remus had an idea that Sirius may have punched the screeching portrait.

"The wretched, unthankful master has upset Kreacher's Mistress again." And any nice moment with the old House elf had been demolished as he left the kitchen, grumbling under his breath. He was off to go calm down the portrait of Sirius' mother, who Kreacher devoted most of his time to.

"You can shut up too, you prat!" Sirius muttered to Kreacher upon their passing.

Remus chuckled. He had spent all of last year trying to make those two patch up their feud, but he had given up, deciding that it was a lost cause.

"It looks great, Mooney, thank you." Sirius said, shoveling a forkful of waffles into his mouth.

"Welcome."

"Did you know Muggles have this flapjack premix done up that you can buy and just add water?"

"That's interesting."

"They are really lazy, I am learning." Sirius said with a laugh.

"Maybe it's because they don't have magic." Remus told him gently. Sirius had an awful time understanding other people's views in life.

"Magic powers, Mooney." Sirius corrected. "They call our ability "power", as if we can control the whole world with just a wave of our wand." He waved his hand as a gesture. "You should read the Muggle fiction they have had published. Lily wasn't joking on most of it."

"I have never considered Lily a big fibber, dear."

"The graphic novels-comic books- are the worst. They got this one where the main character gets bit by a spider and wakes up one day with certain powers that the spider gave him. He can shoot a web from his wrist. It's pretty brilliant really."

"That could inspire some new spell creation, Padfoot. I bet Severus would be interested in such a thing."

Sirius snorted. "He's too busy trying to steal Lily from James."

Remus gave Sirius a cold look. "I told you, he's moved on from her."

"Whatever." Sirius grumbled before gulping down his pumpkin juice.

"Excuse me." A voice cut into their conversation.

"Someone's at the Floo." Remus announced, stepping up from his chair. "I'll get it, you finish."

Sirius nodded through a swallow of eggs.

In the living room, Remus saw the green flame of Floo surrounding the head of the Hogwarts Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore.

"Sir." Remus greeted, kneeling down to speak with him easier.

"Remus, my boy, is Sirius up yet? I have some shocking news that he needs to hear."

"He's finishing breakfast. Is this important?"

"Ah, yes. Extremely." The old wizard said just above a whisper. His right eye twitched into a wink.

"Would you like to come through then, Headmaster?"

"Thank you, I would." He paused, and turned his head back around for a second. "If you do not mind, I have someone with me that should come through too."

"Of course, sir." Remus stepped back to allow room.

What surprised him next was that his former headmaster wasn't accompanied by an adult, but with a small boy. A little boy with short, black hair, and silvery eyes. He was dressed all in blue Muggle clothing. Even the laces of his trainers were blue. He looked about four or five and he didn't say a word as his wide eyes absorbed the surroundings before him.

"Remus what's-" Sirius paused as he took in the scene. "Professor Dumbledore." He smiled politely. "Hello, sir, what brings you here?"

"And who is this?" Remus bent down to the boy's level. "What's your name, little man?"

The boy looked away shyly, and popped a thumb in his mouth.

"Oh, you're a shy one, huh?" Remus stood back up to look at Albus. "Yes, why are you here, sir?" Curiosity struck him suddenly. Why would he bring a child here?

"This morning, I received an urgent owl from the Ministry, who requested me to pick up this lad here as soon as I possibly could. He had been dropped off in the early AM along with-" he reached in his robes and pulled out a pastel green colored parchment. "This." He held it up, looking directly at Sirius. "You may wish to read this, Sirius."

"Okay..." Sirius said slowly with confusion. Remus waited in anticipation as Sirius read the letter, who murmured incoherently as he did so. He watched Sirius swallow hard, before looking from the boy to Dumbledore and back. His face flushed white. "Uh..."

"Yes, it is true, Sirius." Albus said with a nod. "He was born almost five years ago. May 16th, 1981."

"What is it, Paddy?" Remus asked, feeling slightly annoyed that he was left out of the loop.

"This is Audrey's kid." Sirius pointed to the boy.

"Oh." Remus said. Then his eyes grew wide as realization hit. "OH!"

"Sirius, this is your son, Andrew Pyralis Grady." Albus officially introduced them.

Those words sent Sirius backwards into a fainting fall.
