The Effects of Beer

"Harry?!" Sirius cried, his eyes in danger of falling from his sockets

Sirius watched as his drunken godson swayed on his feet, laughing at completely nothing. One look at the beer bottles on the floor told him exactly what was wrong with Harry. He was drunk! How could Harry have done such a thing, he had never acted this way before, it wasn't like him.

He slowly approached his godson, hoping that he wouldn't do anything.

"Harry?"

"Wa do oo wan?" Harry replied with a scary smile on his face

Sirius grabbed Harry by the arms an attempted to make Harry sit on the bed. After a lot of struggling Harry finally sat down. Sirius sat next to him. He put a hand on Harry's leg to keep him from getting up again.

"Harry, calm down. Deep breath"

"I fine Bla, I jus fine"

"Harry, you're drunk! What the hell were you thinking?"

"I tol ya Bla, I jus fine"

"No Harry, you're not fine! You just made a very stupid mistake. Do you know how mad drinking is? Do you know what it can cause? Alcoholism, liver damage, heart damage. Do you want that to happen to you?"

"Lisn' Bla, I cun do wa I wan"

"What happened to you? What happened to that sweet little boy that I used to take care of, the nice, generous Harry that was always helping others. And most of all, what happened to my Harry, Lily and James' son? I don't like the new Harry, I want the old Harry back"

Suddenly Harry snapped back into focus. He glared at Sirius.

"So you don't want me huh?"

"Harry, that's not what I meant"

"I should have known! Nobody ever loved me anyway. I'll just do exactly what you want me to do!"

"You're gonna stay?"

"No, I'm gonna leave! And don't expect me to come back. Ever!"

Harry jumped off the bed and ran out of the room. Sirius ran after him.

"Harry, you misunderstood me! That's not what I meant!"

Harry didn't listen. Sirius chased him downstairs, up to the door. Sirius grabbed his shirt.

"Harry stop, don't go!"

Harry pulled his hand away.

"Fuck you Black"

Harry opened the door and ran outside, slamming the door in Sirius' face. By the time Sirius had opened the door to run after him Harry was nowhere to be seen.
