"You'll never be alone. You have Sirius and me, always. You know that." Of course it helped to be reminded sometimes. As much as Harry had fought being separated from Sirius when the letter for Hogwarts came, the truth was he had been more worried about Siri being alone than Harry coming to Hogwarts. He knew he'd have Remus for those ten months.
Of course he realized later that even though he was in school it hadn't meant that Sirius was too far off. He'd stayed close enough to visit Remus and Harry when they had breaks. There were owls...and yes howlers. Ways to keep in touch. And while most people would have balked at the idea of their dad taking a teaching position their last year of school, Harry had been thrilled. He'd have both his godfather and Remus at school, and their family would be together all the time.
He didn't need to know what had upset his uncle so much because he wasn't trapped in sleep. As long as he was able to wake up and accept comfort then that put him a step or two ahead of the nightmare did it not? "Did you want to take a walk tonight? There are a few hours before sunrise."
Harry would need to grab his cloak and leave a note for Sirius if Remus wanted to venture out, but that was done easy enough.
