[HP Doujin] take care of you

He played with the ends of her hair, wrapping them around his fingers, watching the red change in the light.Ginny wanted to slap his hand away, but she held back and just gave her husband a tender look.She closed the book in her hand, put it on the table beside her, and turned to face him completely.

Although Sirius was sitting next to her on the sofa, he seemed far away.On his shoulders was a burden that Ginny could not lift.He'd always been willing to let Ginny help him clear his mind, but tonight was different.The day started off exhausting.They took four children to King's Cross and two to Hogwarts.Her oldest son, Tristan, is in fourth grade.

The boy was a perfect combination of Gryffindor, Weasley and Blake.He is hot-tempered, brave, and loyal.He talks too much sometimes; it got him a lot of detention.But other than that, he did well in school.He has settled into the rhythm of the school in his first year, as if he was born there.

The one who puts pressure on Sirius is Aurora, the only girl in the family, Sirius' only daughter.

When the sorting ceremony was over and they were back in the common room, Tristan wrote home.Ginny wasn't surprised that the letter was short, but there was one detail in the letter that Black's parents had been anxiously waiting for.Sirius was terrified of hearing that detail, and terrified of it being true.He knew his daughter, he knew Aurora, whom he had affectionately called Rory when she couldn't crawl, he knew what she was capable of.She's not Gryffindor.

Rory was sorted into Slytherin.

She wasn't the first child in this group of friends to be sorted into Slytherin.Ginny knew as well as Sirius that she was likely going to get into that house.Rory is smart, quick, quiet, and ambitious.When the kids were little, it was usually Rory who told Tristan how to hide cookies or pies.One Christmas, Sirius came home to find that Rory and Tristan had opened all the presents two days early, because Rory had seen where Ginny had put the presents a few days earlier.

Aurora is smart.

But it wasn't her strength that worried Sirius.His only daughter was going to an academy he despised, one he feared he couldn't control.She was born Black, and Sirius had been worried that his child would become like his mother, father, and brother.Although Ginny kept trying to gently remind Sirius that Regulus was as brave as her brothers, he wouldn't listen.

Ginny sighed and leaned towards Sirius.He immediately hugged her tightly, sighed, and relaxed.Sirius was talking against her hair so that Wesley and Gabe, who were running in and out of the room, couldn't hear him.

"I should have written to her."

He didn't write.Ginny wrote her daughter a letter full of love, encouragement and pride, reminding her to spend more time with Harry's eldest son, James, who was also in Slytherin, if needed.James will help her, guide her.But Ginny knew that Aurora was not anxiously waiting for her mother's letter.She's not the kind of parent who approves of Aurora's frequent calls for help.

"Yes, you should," Ginny replied softly.

Sirius ran his fingers over Ginny's arm.

"I remember when I was terrified of having kids," Sirius said. "I was worried that they would inherit the worst of me, the worst of my family. When Rory was born... I knew she was different. She was brilliant and brilliant, but she reminded me of my brother. "

Ginny sat up straight and looked at Sirius.He lowered his regretful eyes.

"I didn't do my duty to help my brother. I gave him up so easily. When he joined Voldemort, when he made the wrong choice, I didn't want to talk to him."

Wesley ran into the room, disrupting the atmosphere with laughter.Gabe soon came running in too, his bright hair letting Wesley know where he was right away.The parents watched the children play, and Sirius smiled.They ran out again, giggling outside the room.Ginny turned to look at Sirius.

"Sirius..."

He gently moved Ginny away and stood up.

"I'm going to write to Minerva," he told her. "See if I can go see Rory tonight."

"Don't you think that's a little too much?" Ginny asked with a smirk. "Her dad came to check on her on her first night at school."

Sirius turned around, squinting mockingly.

"Cheeky enough, huh?"

Ginny smiled, picked up the book again, and turned to the page she had folded, while Sirius went to find the parchment and quill.
