I don't want Harry or Hermione to hear the things my mother will certainly call them.
Hermione, especially."
Tonks shook her head to answer his question. She walked forward and wrapped an
arm around his shoulders when he sighed. "It'll be fine, Sirius. We'll figure everything out."
"Easy for you to say. The two of you actually get to do something."
"You know who you sound like?" Remus asked with a soft smile.
"James," Sirius replied quietly with a nod. "Fuck, I don't know what I'll do if I end
up in hiding as long as him and Lily. You should have seen him by the end, Moony. Fidgety
as hell, and Lily was temperamental and snappy. You could tell they were itching to get out
of that house. You think I'll last that long?"
Remus patted him on the back. "I think you'll last as long as you need to. As long
as Harry needs you to. In the meantime, just try and hold out on going crazy for as long as
possible."
As long as possible turned out to be one month.
