Remus' POV

I am reading a book by the fire when Severus arrives. "Severus, do what do I owe the pleasure?" I ask him.

"You're first dose" he states placing a goblet on the table. "Where's Evan?" he asks.

"Out with his friends" I tell him.

"What?! Do you have any idea how dangerous it is for him to be outside?" he demands.

"Severus, he is a ten year boy and he needs to develop social skills with kids his age. One of the reasons I choose this place is because there is a muggle born wizard his age here. Who he is already becoming friends with" I tell him calmly. "He knows not to tell anyone his last name or that he is a wizard. He is a very responsible child" I state.

"He should not be out there unsupervised" he states.

"He'll be home shortly and you can see for yourself he is perfectly fine" I tell him. "By the way Mrs Weasley has contacted me and she is happy to look after Evan for me on the full moon and the day after" I state. He grunts and sits down as we wait for Evan to come home.

Evan's POV

Life at Remus' is great, I can sleep in, go outside, play with kids my age and eat chocolate. I haven't really made friends yet. But the muggle children let me play with them. Remus thinks it's important for any young kids development to interact with other kids. One friend I've made seems different to the others, Derek Coleson. Though I have not figured out why yet.

I've only sent letters to Minnie, Hagrid and Professor Snape. I'd have loved to write to Harry. But he doesn't know who I am. And I don't want to risk losing Pepper, one of my only connections to Harry. The other is my stag toy, which used to be his apparently. Remus said he had given it to me when he meet me in the hospital.

Remus and I live in a cottage in Yorkshire. It's small, but it feels like home. I never felt at home at Spinners end, it always felt like a prison. But here I am free. I've explored every each of the house, I even saw the basement where Remus transforms on a full moon. Speaking of full moon, it's a week away and i still don't know for sure what's happening.

"Do you really have to go Evan?" Derek asks me.

"Yeah, Uncle Remus wanted me home by lunch" I tell him.

"Will you ask him about my party next weekend?" he asks. It's Derek's tenth birthday next weekend. He is having a party at his house. Which I am invited too. I hope Uncle Remus lets me go. Professor Snape would never let me go, Merlin he never let me out of the house.

"I will, see you tomorrow Derek" I tell him and run off home. "Uncle Remus, I'm home!" I call as I enter the house and remove my shoes. I head for the living room and freeze when I see Professor Snape is here.

"Welcome home Evan, Professor Snape was just bringing me my first goblet of Wolf's Bane Potion. I must take it all week" Uncle Remus tells me. I nod my head.

"Hello Professor Snape" I say.

"Are you well Evan?" he asks.

"Yes, I really like it here" I tell him. He nods and gets up heading for the fire place. "Professor Snape, thank you for raising me for the first ten years of my life. I promise to make you proud when I start at Hogwarts" I state.

"Don't make me proud Evan, make yourself proud" he tells me. He disappears in a burst of green flames. I then sit down.

"What is it you wish to ask?" Uncle Remus asks me.

"Derek is having his birthday party this weekend, on Sunday. I'm invited, can I please go?" I ask him and he smiles.

"Of course you may" he tells me. "Any idea on what you want to get him?" he asks me.

"I was thinking a chess set, a muggle one" I tell him. "He told me how his grandfather has been teaching him and it'd allow him to practice" I state.

"A wonderful idea, we shall go after lunch and look for one" he tells me. He drinks his goblet of potion with a grimace. "Disgusting" he mutters putting the empty goblet down.

"Can't you add something to make it taste better?" I ask him curious.

"I could, but it'd make the potion useless" he tells me. "So what do you want for lunch?" he asks me. I think about it.

"Do we have any pizza left?" I ask him.

"I'll go heat it up" he states. I smile and follow him to the kitchen. I pour us each a glass of a muggle fizzy drink. I think he called it coke, it goes great with pizza. After lunch we went shopping for Derek's birthday. I find the perfect chess set and a card. We go home. Uncle Remus wraps it with magic while I wrote in the card.

"So Uncle Remus, what's happening on the full moon? Where am I going?" I ask him.

"Mrs Weasley says you can go stay with her and her daughter" he states. "You'll leave Thursday morning and be back Saturday morning" he explains.

"Oh" I say. I though I'd go to Hogwarts and stay with Professor Snape.

"Is that ok?" he asks me.

"Yeah, I just thought I'd be going to stay with Professor Snape" I state.

"That was the plan, but I feel like you need as much exposure to other kids your age as much as possible. So Mrs Weasley extended a hand, I accepted. She has a daughter around your age, in fact her daughter starts at Hogwarts next year" he states.

"And Professor Snape is ok with this?" I ask confused.

"He doesn't really get a say in your up bringing any more. But he is glad you are enjoying your new life here. Though he may not show it" he states. "Now Mrs Weasley and her husband know you are Harry's little brother. It's up to you if you trust their daughter with the information" he tells me.

"Me? But I'm only a kid" I remind him.

"A very responsible and mature kid. I trust your judgement" he tells me.

"How old is their daughter?" I ask.

"Ten, her birthday was in August" he states. "Her name is Ginny" he adds. I nod my head. The rest of our day was uneventful. I reread the letter from Minnie about Harry's first quidditch game as seeker. Laughing to myself as I read how he nearly swallowed the snitch. Wishing I could of watched the match in person. Dinner was just steak and three vegetables. We have chocolate pudding cups for dessert. Then watched a move before I got ready for bed. Calling it a night.
