บท 96: Sirius Learns to Let Go
"Get some sleep and take a bath. It is apparent you spent these last few days worrying about Harry instead of trusting that this was the best thing for him."
Sirius sheepishly nodded and used his wand to levitate Harry to his bed in the tent.
Five hours later Harry woke up he felt disgusting as if his skin was crawling with dirt. He dug in his trunk and got clean clothes out and then went to the tent's bathroom where he took a long hot shower.
He was happy that the bruise and small split on his temple had been healed by Yiska. Sirius would have thrown a fit if he'd seen it. His stomach was growling fiercely despite the juice and the broth he'd had he wondered if he would still be expected to make do with liquid or if he would get some semisolid food at dinner tonight.
After he dressed in blue jeans he was pleased to note his facial shape and structure had ceased to alter itself on a whim. His hair on the other hand was purple at the moment so he stopped by his trunk for another hat he wasn't going to wear the one he'd worn on his quest until it had been cleaned. He left the tent and was met by Rachel. "Hey Rachel."
"Harry you seem more…"
"Settled. Yes, where's Sirius?"
"I would imagine he's still sleeping, he was so worried about you the whole time you were gone he didn't sleep. Of course Winry's chewing him out the day you left didn't help."
Harry had an idea and got a smirk on his face. "Do you know the spell that makes you feel like you've been dipped in ice water?"
"No." Rachel drawled. "Why?"
"I want him awake so I can tell him and you about the quest and I thought if we did that spell on him he would wake up."
"In a hurry."
"Yeah, well what goes around comes around. He used to do it to my dad all the time because my dad loved to sleep in. Dad in his journal always talked about wanting revenge but Sirius was always up before him so he never got the chance."
"Does your dad's journal have the spell?"
"Yes."
"Alright I'm in, if only so I'll have a funny story at the next check in. It's been really boring with you gone. Sirius mostly just paced in a circle."
Five minutes later Rachel and Harry were bolting out of the tent laughing as Sirius bellowed in shock. They went to the trailer to have dinner with Yiska and Jenny. Harry was ecstatic to see a poached egg, some runny corn pudding, and some stewed fruit at his place. "Yes! Real food."
Rachel looked at it and gave him a skeptical glance. "Real food?"
"Think of what I've had for the last week, this qualifies if only by comparison."
Sirius came in. "What was that?" he growled.
Harry irreverently said "Payback for all the times you did that to Dad."
"Fine but know this you little marauder, what goes around comes around comes around and now you don't have the protection of your allergy."
"Looking forward to it Sirius." Harry smirked. The rest of the evening was spent with Harry sharing what had happened, how he felt, and what he'd learned from the the last few days. Yiska gave him the promised journal it was a magical one that would never run out of pages and was keyed to his magical signature so only he could open it. What Harry liked the best was that it had the Spider rocks tooled into the leather of the cover.
