Lily woke much later than she usually did, having slept peacefully for the first time in a very long time in James' arms. She took her time getting showered and dressed, not seeing any reason to hurry.

When she finally comes downstairs she heads straight for the kitchen, not even noticing that someone else has been in the house or is in the garden. She sings, softly, and the sound might float outdoors if the window is open. And on such a beautiful day, why wouldn't it be?

Sirius heard the voice and closed his eyes tightly, just listening to what sounded to him like a ghost. After a little while, he summoned up his courage and went to the doorway that lead from the garden, outside.

"Have I told you, recently, that I love it when you sing?"

Lily gasped, turning toward the familiar voice.

"Sirius!" she cried, running over to him to pull him into a hug. He looked...older. Thinner. Weaker. She hugged him tight and tried not to think about how long it had been for him.

He wrapped his arms around her gently, just savoring the fact that she was here and alive...it was almost enough to banish the images of hers and James' dead bodies that night that had been seared into his memories.

"Hey, there, Lils, it's good to see you again."

Lily pulled back enough that she could see his face, searching it for evidence of what he'd been through.

"How long?" she asks, voice sounding small. "How long were you gone?"

marauderinggrim October 8 2011, 20:09:56 UTC

He winces slightly. He knew the question was coming....and he knew he wouldn't be able to keep anything from her either.

"Five years..."

hexywitch October 10 2011, 03:36:05 UTC

She shakes her head, trying to keep the tears from filling her eyes, but...there they are.

"So. We've already..."

marauderinggrim October 10 2011, 05:52:33 UTC

He looks away, not able to face her tears knowing he brought them there.

"Yeah...few months ago for me."

hexywitch October 10 2011, 06:14:19 UTC

"And you're..." She takes a deep breath and swallows the lump in her throat. "Azkaban.."

marauderinggrim October 10 2011, 12:00:56 UTC

He winces, but nods. No point hiding something from her she already knew.

hexywitch October 10 2011, 18:56:36 UTC

A tear slips down her cheek and she nods back. "I'm sorry, Sirius." What else is there to say?

marauderinggrim October 10 2011, 20:59:34 UTC

Gently, he reaches up and brushes the tear away, trying to smile for her. "Don't be, Lily, it's not like it's your fault. I'm just glad you're still here."

hexywitch October 10 2011, 22:50:38 UTC

She manages a small smile, clutching the front of his shirt like holding onto him will keep him here. He needs to stay here. He can't go back there.

"I'm so glad you're back."

marauderinggrim October 12 2011, 18:05:55 UTC

He manages a small smile for her, not minding her need to keep a hold of him. Made Sirius feel more grounded as well.

"Me too, more than you know."

hexywitch October 13 2011, 01:13:56 UTC

She nods. "I can't even imagine. I don't want to."

marauderinggrim October 15 2011, 06:02:41 UTC

"I'd rather you didn't anyway. Just...stick to now." It's what he was working to do. It was the only thing that would keep him sane.
