"Harry, why's Peek Boo stayin' home?"
Harry tickled the bottom of Teddy's socked foot and grinned when the boy squirmed. "Because kitties and puppies don't get along, remember?"
"But Doc' saided! He saided that they could!"
Harry snorted, hitched Teddy up higher and shook his head. "Plus, it's rude to bring a guest without having them be invited."
"What's 'vited mean?"
"Asked over."
"Oh...Harry?"
"Teddy," Harry mimicked the long drawn out whine in his godson's tone and chuckled when he heard Teddy huff dramatically. "We're almost there, and then I'll put you down."
"Pop us, Harry!"
Harry was beginning to think maybe that would be a good idea from the way Teddy's wigglings grew more frequent.
"All right, hang on."
And with a quick look around, Harry Apparated off the curb to Remus' front door. He knocked quickly as the air was slowly being choked from his lungs by the stranglehold Teddy had around his neck.

"Hello!" she grinned at the two of them.

He leaned forward and gently kissed his mother's cheek, wishing it didn't feel as awkward as it did. Harry still wasn't sure what to do now that he had a mother, but he was going to try.
"Is Sirius here?" he asked curiously.
Reply
Lily gave Harry a hug as well, ushering the two of them inside with a nod.
"Yes he is," she said, wondering why Sirius wasn't at the door already.

But positive or negative, overwhelming was... overwhelming.
He blinked and stood up, going to the door with a practically numbing excitement buzzing all through him. Then he saw him there, in the doorway. "Harry," he breathed, a grin spreading. He walked the rest of the way to the boy... no, man now, and pulled him into what must have been a bone-crushing embrace. "Harry! Merlin, you... you've grown up!"
Something cold in his heart stirred at the observation, a sorrow for the time he'd so obviously missed. But the joy and relief was great enough that he could put away the regret, at least for now.

"I missed you," he mumbled, feeling ridiculously happily stupid.

Still, he was determined not to let this reunion be dragged down by anything. and that Harry seemed so happy to see him certainly helped. "I missed you too."

Lily closed the door behind them and turned her attention to Teddy.
"So how is your kitty doing? Getting along with everyone nicely?" the red head grinned.
