Then finally, after what feels like multiple hours of purgatory, a car drives up to the curb in front of the house. Harry bolts out of his seat before the vehicle has fully come to a stop, making a mad dash through the front door. Sirius meets him halfway, jumping out of the cab and spreading his arms wide. Harry flies into him, laughing before either of them even get to say hi. Sirius squeezes him, arms wrapped around his shoulders, and Harry squeezes back just as hard.
