New One-Shot!

Trouvaille

Trouvaille: The Potter men were known for losing things in cushions.

The idea sprung to my mind and I couldn't let it go. If there's any weird formatting issues, let me know. I always get nervous uploading stories like this.

Special thanks to @arliedraws for the prompt. The idea wouldn't leave my head.

Chapter Ten

Finally! The newest chapter is up. I sat on this chapter for weeks because something just didn't feel right. I made a major change to the original idea and everything came so much easier after that. The change was definitely needed. Can you guess what it was?

Super duper thanks for @justalittleconfusing for being my sounding board and her unwavering support. She's a super star who just inspires me like crazy. I adore her.

I think you should write a one shot of ginny writing her older self a letter like this girls video https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMSHR3c4v/, but with a husband named Harry Potter and then having Harry discover it lmao.

Your wish is my command.

When Harry helped Ginny pack up her bedroom at the Burrow so they can move in together, he found a letter that seven-year-old Ginny wrote to her future self.

Multiple chapters

Ginny is a young woman in the stone age, daughter of the leaders of her tribe. One day by the stream, she encounters a man from another tribe. They don’t have many words in common, but that does not stop them from connecting. Separate tribes, enemies… new experiences… there are many challenges ahead for them.

Chapter 5: Words

He took hold of her hips, guiding her to face him. She straddled his lap and brought her arms fully around him. He whispered words she didn’t understand.

“What did you say?” she whispered.

He paused and his cheeks tinted red. “I want to devour you. Explore…”

“What is devour?” she asked, pulling on the strands of his hair.

His chest heaved with his breath. He licked his lips. “Take you all in, eat you up…”

A jolt of something travelled right to the pit of her stomach. “Devour,” she repeated.

“Devour,” he whispered. Then he followed up on his whispered desires and let his mouth travel down. He fitted his lips to her neck and let his teeth graze over it. He sucked on a particular spot and then his mouth continued.

Chapter Three: Albus Dumbledore

I've been sitting on this chapter since like Thursday, but was too sick to do a productive final read through. So, finally, here we go!

[myrtlewarren]

Sirius Black and Harry Potter. Forehead kiss.

“Sirius?”

Sirius stirred and rolled over, squinting toward the door. The soft shaft of golden hallway light cut across the shadows of the bedroom, illuminating the doorway like a stage. There, silhouetted against the warm glow, stood five-year-old Harry.

His hair was a wild, inky tangle—sticking up in every direction, just like James’s used to. In his arms he clutched his stuffed deer, the plush antlers bent and well-loved from constant squeezing. The toy’s stitched-on eyes caught the light, glinting faintly as Harry hugged it close, his small fingers curled tightly around its worn velvet neck.

His green eyes—those unmistakably familiar eyes—looked too wide for his face.

“Yeah, mate?” Sirius murmured, his voice rough with sleep. “I’m awake.”

Harry hurried across the room and scrambled onto the bed, burrowing close to Sirius without a word.

“I had a bad dream,” Harry whispered.

“That’s okay,” Sirius said gently, wrapping an arm around him. “You’re awake now. It’s all over.”

Harry sniffled and buried his face in the pillow. “You need to make room for Nibbers.”

“Oh—sorry,” Sirius said, scooting over to make space on the massive bed. It never failed to amuse him how much room tiny Harry could take up when he slept—especially with his plush deer in tow.

“There was a green light,” Harry murmured after a long moment. “It was big. And then everything went dark.”

Sirius’s heart gave a dull thud in his chest. He exhaled slowly, brushing a hand through Harry’s messy hair.

“Yeah?” he said softly.

A pause.

“Sirius?”

“I’m here, Harry.”

“Can you tell me a story about Prongs in the forest?”

Sirius shifted, sitting up a little straighter. He pressed a kiss to the top of Harry’s head. “Of course I can,” he said, his voice warm and steady. 

He paused, letting the silence stretch just long enough to feel like the beginning of something important.

“Deep in the dark Forbidden Forest, Prongs was walking under the moonlight,” Sirius began, speaking softly as Harry closed his eyes. “His hooves made almost no sound on the soft moss. He was looking for someone—one of the centaurs, the one with the silver mane who knew how to read the stars…”

Chapter One: The Appearance

When a very little Harry Potter suddenly appears in Sirius’ cell in Azkaban, he can’t help but notice his godson’s now shy demeanor and the terrible state of his clothes. Luckily, the kid still remembered him and looked beyond relieved to see him once more. Sirius knew he had to find a way to prove his innocence for his godson’s sake.

Here we go! Let's finally have our Sirigan happy ending this time around!

Chapter Nine

It's reveal time! I don't think any of you guessed who Eris was correctly, but some of you were burning hot close.

Shit's about to get real, my friends. Chapter ten is going to be where everything bubbles to the surface.

Hey Sam!

Since it is Monday, can we get a sneak peek of something you are working on to get us through the day.

I have a story worm that worked its way in my head on Friday and I've been thinking about it ever since. It's a random one-shot where a three-year-old Harry mysteriously appears in Sirius' cell in Azkaban. Luckily, one of the Aurors who comes to take Harry is a very sexy and compassionate Auror who actually listens to Sirius. Anyway....

While Sirius didn’t know how long he contemplated the impossible, he certainly didn’t like when he saw the unfamiliar Patronus on a boar barreled down the corridor and stood in front of Sirius’ cell. Sirius held his breath, his grip tightening around his sleeping godson. He knew Harry couldn’t stay with him, but Sirius couldn’t let him leave at the same time.

A group of Aurors appeared outside of his cell. Sirius immediately recognized Alastor Moody leading the pack. There were a couple of Aurors a couple of years older than Sirius, remembering them from school. There were also a couple that he didn’t recognize that were a lot older than him. The door to his cell opened and five wands were trained on him.

“Did you kill him?” Moody growled, limping forward.

Sirius didn’t say anything. Harry stirring in his arms was more than enough proof that the kid was still alive.

“See-See?” Harry asked, his fist pushing his glasses up to rub at his eye.

“What did you do, Black?” Moody asked in a low voice.

Harry tensed, turning to look at the group of people. He immediately shrunk into Sirius, his hand gripping the front of Sirius’ robes.

“I didn’t do anything,” Sirius replied, his hand pressing against the side of Harry’s head and trying to shield him from the newcomers. “He just appeared out of thin air.”

“Did you hurt him?” Moody asked, his stare cold and hard.

“No, I would never hurt him,” Sirius replied, trying to control his temper.

Moody snorted. “Let him go.”

Sirius swallowed. “You can’t take him back to his relatives.”

“You have no say in the matter, Black,” Moody announced, gesturing towards Harry. “Robin’s grab the boy. Robards grab Black. I want him in an interrogation room on two.”

“Look at him!” Sirius shouted, his eyes snapping at the familiar woman stepping forward.

Her long chestnut hair was pulled back in the front. Her dark eyes-maintained eye contact with him. Sirius remembered her from school, but the name Robins wasn’t familiar to him. She must be married, despite the lack of ring on her finger. When she knelt down in front of him, suddenly she clicked in his mind. Tegan Emerson had been two years older than him: prefect and head girl in Gryffindor. He had never really gotten in trouble with her while at school. Her partner had been Gawain Robards after all, and he was the one to torment. James liked try to make the little vein in his forehead pop. Sirius could vaguely remember Tegan stifling her laughter in the background.

“I didn’t do it,” Sirius whispered, his breathing picking up. “I didn’t kill anyone. I didn’t hurt Harry.”

“Okay,” Tegan said, offering in a closed mouth smile. “I still need to take Harry though.”

Sirius shook his head. “Look at him,” he insisted in a strangled whisper. “His relatives are hurting him. They’re neglecting him. He can’t go back there.”

Tegan frowned, her eyebrows tugging down. She looked down at a quivering Harry in Sirius’ arms. Her eyes flickered back up to Sirius. Gawain stepped up behind her but didn’t rush them.

“Is there another family member who could take him in?” Tegan asked.

Sirius shook his head. “I’m the only one left.”
