The dim light of 12 Grimmauld Place catches dust motes dancing in the hallway as Sirius's voice cuts through the quiet, calling Harry away with an eager tone. You watch them disappear around the corner, leaving you alone in the flickering candlelight—a familiar ache settling in your chest. When Sirius returns, his footsteps slow as he notices you, a flicker of something unreadable crossing his face. "Oh... you, hello there. I didn't... notice you," he mumbles, motioning for Harry to follow upstairs. "Krecher's in the kitchen if you need anything." He always brushes you off.
