Chapter 20: Facing Up

Sirius was the first to awake out of the two of them. At one point in the night, Sirius had awoken and pulled the bed covers over them both. May did not even wake when he pulled the red covers from under them and then over their entwined bodies. He soon returned to sleep with his arms tight around her. Now he had woken up for a second time, with a glance at his watch he saw that it was now morning. He remained still with May sleeping comfortably in his arms.

It wasn't long after he had woken up when May also woke up. Sirius kept his arms around her, his fingers delicately touching the smooth skin of her back. “Good morning.” Sirius mumbled when she turned her head up to face him.

She gave him a broad smile. “Good morning.” Her hand resting on his chest as she slowly moved closer and kissed his lips. He whole-heartedly returned the kiss by deepening it. His fingers tangled into her hair, holding her to him.

“Happy Birthday.” He whispered when he pulled away from her lips, his fingers running through her slightly tangled locks. “Do you want to go or stay here?” Holding her tight to him.

May giggled softly. “What time is it?” Resting against his chest comfortably.

Sirius looked at his watch quickly. “9 in the morning.” Running his hand down her back.

“Let's stay for a little while.” She moved closer to him, placing a soft kiss on his chest. “It's too comfy here.” Giggling again as he placed a gentle kiss upon her head. “I wish we could hide in here forever.” Her fingertips caressing his chiselled chest. Ever since she first saw him topless, when they were a couple, she loved to gently feel his body underneath the tips of her fingertips. He relaxed her in a way.

“I know. I wish the same.” His lips brushing against her dark hair. “To stay in this room with a very naked you.” His arms holding her tight to him as she giggled. “I can't wait for us to just spend lazy days like this.” His fingers running down her bare back. “But I think we should go back soon or I will no longer be a walking, talking, breathing Marauder.”

May laughed softly and turned onto her stomach, half resting on Sirius' chest. “I would never let that happen to you. James values his life more if he knows I will be very upset.” Grinning widely before kissing him softly. Her hands resting on his chest as their kiss grew. Sirius' own hands ran up her back and began to tangle themselves into her hair. His other arm wrapped around her waist and slowly turned them until May lay on her back and Sirius lay over her.

“We should go back.” Sirius whispered gently but he continued with the kissing. The two were distracted for some time until May placed her hand on his chest and gently pushed him away. “Oh right. Yes, we should go.” Sirius spoke slowly but he could not help himself and kiss her feverishly, which she returned with the same enthusiasm.

“Sirius...” She mumbled against his lips as he lifted her leg and over his hip. She laughed softly as his lips moved from her lips to her neck. “Sirius.” Her hands returned to his chest and she pushed him slightly and removed her leg from his hip. “Come on.” She gave a giggle when he sat up and pouted down at her. “Would you like to be a walking, talking, breathing Marauder?”

“Yeah I do.” He chuckled and moved off her and allowed her to climb out of bed and go in search of her dress. “It's official.” He spoke as he watched her dress into her underwear and dress. “I am the luckiest bloke in Hogwarts.”

May glanced behind her and gave him a timid smile. “I am the luckiest girl in the world.” Zipping up her dress and moving toward him, sitting on the bed next to him. “Get dressed or I will be the saddest girl in all of Hogwarts because my big brother has killed the reason why I am lucky.” Smirking lightly when he gave her a small grin. “Get dressed. Now.”

“Yes Princess.” He leaned up and kissed her before climbing out of bed and going in search of his own clothes, which were scattered around the room. May watched him as he dressed. She admired the way his body was. From his quidditch years, his body was very toned and muscled. “Are you perving me, Princess?” He grinned when he turned to face her and saw her staring at him.

“Just admiring the view.” Grinning at him as he put his tie around his neck but not doing it up. “It's a rather good view.” Biting her lower lip as he approached her. “A very good view.” He held his hands out to her silently, which she took and stood up slowly.

“Thank you.” He whispered and gave her a chaste kiss on the lips.

“For what?” She whispered in return. Her hands resting on his forearms.

“Everything. Everything from last night to now to everything you are.” Kissing her once more before leading her out of the Room of Requirement. Sirius placed his black dress robes around her shoulder and he wrapped his arm around her as they quickly returned to the Gryffindor Tower. There were only a few students around and luckily for the young couple, someone was coming out of the Gryffindor Tower so Sirius and May did not have to wait long since the password changed at midnight and neither of them knew it. “Meet you back here for breakfast?”

May nodded and grinned a little. “Of course. Give me half an hour to have a shower and I will be back. Good luck with Jamie.” Kissing him quickly before making her way to the girls dormitory. She hoped James wasn't too hard on Sirius and she hoped Sirius lied to James about where they had been all night. She pushed the door of her dormitory and was attacked by a mixture of blonde hair and copper hair. “Merlin! Let me breathe girls.”

Hannah and Lily pulled away from her and let her move into the room. “So?” Hannah pressed her. “Where did he take you? What happened? Did he give you the Birthday present that you wanted?” She smirked broadly and gave a laugh when May blushed brightly. “You didn't?!” May turned away from them and began searching for clothes in her trunk.

“May! You're 16!” Lily said in shock as she stood with her arms folded across her chest. “What will your brother say if he finds out?”

“He won't find out.” May spoke calmly as she searched for her shower things inside her trunk. “If you tell him Lily, I'll never forgive you.” Standing up straight with her bath things in her arms and a look of slight anger on her features as she stared at Lily. “Please Lily!” Her anger turned to pleading.

“Fine! Just be careful. In more ways than one.” Lily chuckled as she watched May turn around and disappear into the bathroom. Once the door was closed, Lily spoke again. “She's going to get hurt.” Lily sighed heavily as she sat on the bed.

Hannah stood, leaning against her bed post with her arms folded across her chest. “Why do you say that?”

“I don't know. I just have that feeling that Sirius is going to hurt her somehow.” She shrugged her shoulder a little and looked towards the bathroom door. “I hope he doesn't hurt her. May's too fragile even though she doesn't show it.”

“What?” Hannah chuckled softly. May was one of the strongest people she knew and she had never seen her cry over anybody and especially not Sirius.

“You remember when Sirius slept with Katie when he was secretly with May and she moved into my dormitory?” Lily spoke quietly, just in case May heard them talking about her. Hannah nodded silently. “When she broke it off with Sirius because of Katie, she broke down in my arms. For as long as I've known here, I've never seen her cry like that.” Looking at the bathroom door again. “I really hope he doesn't hurt her again, I think it will break her.”

Hannah nodded slowly. “I see what you mean but I don't think he'd ever do anything like that to her again. It's so obvious that he cares for her more than anything in this whole world. Even more than James.” Hannah gave a small bubble of laughter and ran her hand through her cropped blonde hair. “She is completely in love with him. That is too obvious.”

“Do you want to go down to breakfast? I'm guessing May's meeting Sirius.” Lily chuckled softly as she stood up from her position.

“Sure.” Hannah smiled as she stood up straight and the two left the dormitory together, chatting away about Hannah's upcoming O.W.L's. Once they reached the Common Room, they found a rather nervous Sirius and an angry looking James. But James' anger disappeared once Lily came into the room but he was continuously watching for May's appearance.

“What's going on?” Lily asked as they approached James and Sirius cautiously.

“He!” James pointed at Sirius. “Was out all night with my sister and he wouldn't tell me where.”

“If he doesn't want to tell you then he doesn't have to.” Lily stood up for Sirius, who gave her a small smile of gratitude. “Leave him alone!” Rolling her eyes. “Let's go, Hannah. Don't really want to be in the middle of this.” The two girls moved away from the two Marauders and left the Common Room.

“Why won't you tell me?” James turned back to Sirius, his arms folded across his chest. “I don't want to guess what you were doing.” Giving a groan and shook his head. It was obvious what Sirius and May were up to last night but he really hoped that it was not true. “I will kill you if you have hurt her.”

“I've had that threat so many times since me and May went public. You know I would never hurt her in a million years.” Sirius stood in front of James. “I can't understand why you don't believe me. May and I went to the Room of Requirement where we had a small meal together with some butterbeer and talked for most of the night and slept for the rest.” Rolling his eyes and shook his head. “I love May more than anything!”

“More than Quidditch?” James smirked slightly.

Sirius laughed. “Slightly more than Quidditch.” Chuckling softly. “I know! It's a shock but it's true.” He moved away from James and sat on the comfy sofas when a small group of first years moved away and out of the Common Room. “I promise you that we did not do anything last night. We talked most of the night and she fell asleep first. We stayed there all night.”

“Right.” James nodded unconvinced with what his best friend had just said but he had his doubts that Sirius might be lying to him but then again he could be telling the truth. This was his baby sister and his best friend. Sirius would never hurt May but he did when they were secretly together. James hoped Sirius didn't hurt her again. He watched his best friend as Sirius sat quietly staring at the dying fire. James couldn't see Sirius' eyes but if he could, he could tell that Sirius was thinking and he was thinking about May.

May watched from the bottom of the stairs. She gave a small chuckle as James moved towards Sirius and sat next to him. They spoke quietly together. Too quietly for her to hear until she moved closer to them.

“We're allowed into Hogsmeade this afternoon.” James spoke. “Mum and Dad were meant to meet us there but Dad's ill again. I got a feeling he won't get better.”

“What?” May gasped when James spoke. “Daddy's sick? Since when?” Staring at them both in shock as they both stood up.

“Over a year.” James spoke quietly as he moved towards her. “We were going to tell you but Dad didn't want you to get hurt.”

“Get hurt?!” She spoke angrily. “I wouldn't have been hurt but you all keeping it a secret from me is what is hurting me!” Tears streamed down her cheeks in anger and sadness as her watery hazel eyes flickered between them both. “How long has Daddy been sick?!” Her anger growing as the silence grew.

“May...” Sirius broke the silence and stood next to James. “You need to calm down and need to sit down.” Holding his hand out to her but she didn't take it. “Come up to our dormitory and we can all talk about it.” Glancing at James for a moment before returning his gaze to his crying girlfriend. “Come on. Let's go somewhere a bit more quiet.”

Cautiously, May took his hand and the two, along with James, walked up to the boys' dormitory. They walked up the stairs in silence. Once inside the room, they found Peter and Remus talking as they finished readying themselves for breakfast. “Hey guys. Do you mind if we have the room for a moment?” James asked quietly as Sirius led May further into the room and to James' bed, which was in the furthest part of the dormitory. The two sat on it silently as Remus and Peter left and James closed the door behind them, placing a silencing spell and locking spell upon it.

May sat on the bed with tears still streaming down her pale cheeks. “How.... How long has he been ill?” Her hands wringing in her lap but she was stopped by a larger male hand. Sirius' hand. He rested his hand over her hands as he sat down on her right.

James was going to stand but seeing how fragile his sister looked, he sat next on her left hand side and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. “Over a year now.”

“A year?” She whispered in shock. “Why didn't you tell me?” Her hands finally still in Sirius' own hand but the tears continued to fall down her cheeks. “I had a right to know. We're a family, Jamie. We never keep secrets from each other.”

James was about to argue about her previous secret relationship with Sirius but thought it was a bad time. “I found out by accident. Dad wasn't going to tell us because he thought he was going to get better.” He sighed heavily. “He's not May. That's why they're not coming today. Dumbledore told me that Dad has had to go into hospital.” May turned to face him in shock, unable to speak. James continued, “I was supposed to make up an excuse to tell you but now I don't have to.”

May swallowed for a moment, trying to regain the ability to speak but she was unable to. Only until Sirius gave her hands another squeeze. Once she looked at him, he gave her a small but confident nod. “I want to go and see him.” Turning her attention back to her brother. “Please Jamie.”

Her brother gave a heavy sigh. “I'll go and talk to Dumbledore.” Giving her another light hug and kissing the side of her head before he stood up and begun to make his way to the door. “Pads, do you want to come with us?”

May looked straight at him and nodded. Sirius answered with a small and comforting smile. “It seems I must.” James nodded and left the room silently, closing the door behind him. Sirius pulled May into his side and held her to him. “Let it out.” The sobs soon escaped from her lips and she moved into his embrace as he enveloped his arms tightly around her. “Your Dad will be fine. He's strong and will fight it.” May remained silent. Sirius held her tightly and the two of them lay back on James' bed. His arms held her closely to him as she quietly sobbed.

The news of her beloved father's illness was killing her on the inside. She was a Daddy's girl. He had always been there for her and she could always rely on him to look after her, no matter what her problem was. “I can't be without him.” She finally spoke but it was quiet. So quiet Sirius could barely hear her. “He's my daddy.” She turned on her side and moving into Sirius' arms more, her head resting on his chest.

“I know May. He's like a father to me too.” Sirius whispered against her hair as he held her against him, his hands rubbing her back, giving her comfort. “He'll be fine. I know he will.”

“How can you say that?” Her anger slowly growing but it ebbed away with every one of Sirius' touches. “How do you even know? Even before me? I should have been known before you!” Her tears falling onto his jumper, her tears staining the material. “Did James tell you?”

“Yes. Sort of. I overheard your parents too. It was in the summer holidays.” He spoke quietly as they continued to lay on James' bed with Sirius' arms wrapped around the frightened birthday girl. “Me and James had been playing Quidditch and you were finishing off a potions essay. We came back into the house and we could hear your father coughing in his library and your mother talking to him quietly, along with another voice.” His hand ran up and down her back. “We could see into the library that the other voice was a healer.”

“What was he saying?” She whispered softly, her ear flat against his chest, listening to his heartbeat.

“I think we should wait for James to come back. I don't want to say any more.” Kissing her dark hair gently and rubbing her back. “He should be the one to tell you. Not me.” Kissing her hair again. They lay in silence as May silently cried in the arms of her boyfriend.

“Kiss me.” She whispered and turned her head upwards to look at him. Salted tears stained her cheeks as her sad hazel eyes looked up at him. Sirius gave her a silent smile and nodded slowly. May moved closer to him, laying on top of him. Her lips slowly descended onto Sirius'. Firstly, she kissed him softly but she turned the kiss into a rushed. Sirius tried to stop her but he found himself responding to her kisses.

He finally came to his senses when he found her hand moving under her shirt. “May...” He mumbled against her lips and finally pushed her away. “Not now.” Pulling her hand out from under his shirt. “One: You've just received shocking news and sex is the last thing you need and two: We are on James' bed. I doubt he'd be happy to walk in and see us having sex on his bed.” Chuckling softly as he brushed the back of his hand across her cheek. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the gentle touch of his fingers. “You need to let the information sink in.”

Her hands rested on his chest and her chin on top of her hands. May's watery hazel eyes stared up at him. “I'm sorry. I feel like I need it. To get rid of the pain I'm feeling.” Giving him a weak smile before moving away from him and laying next to him, curled into his side. “Thank you.” She whispered softly with her eyes closed. She wasn't asleep but keeping her eyes closed stopped her from crying more. “You are the best person I have ever met, who is not my family.” Chuckling quietly and opened her eyes, fixing them on his face. “Thank you.”

“It is not a problem, Princess.” His knuckles gently running across her cheekbone. “I will always be here for you.” His hand cupping her cheek. “I love you.”

“I love you.” She whispered back. They waited together in silence for 10 minutes before James finally returned. “Can we go and see him?” She sat up quickly, her red rimmed eyes surveying him and slowly stood up.

James slowly nodded. “Yes we can but... He's in hospital May. It doesn't look good.” May's legs couldn't hold her up any longer and she sat back down on the edge of the bed. “Dumbledore is coming with us. He wants to come and see father too.” Sirius immediately wrapped an arm around May and held her close to him. “Dumbledore wants the three of us to be at his office in half an hour. He's sending us home until term starts.”

May nodded quietly. “I'll.. I'll just... I'll just go and fetch my things.” She stuttered softly and stood up on unsteady legs. “I won't be long.” Walking across the room and out of the open door.

“Oh Merlin.” James groaned and ran a hand over his face, a hint of morning stubble on his chin. “I wish she didn't have to find out this way. It's killing her.” His body shook as his own sobs finally reached the surface. He had been fighting to keep them hidden from May and now she was out of sight, the sobbing began. “My family is being ripped apart and I can't stop it.”

Sirius rushed to his best friend's side and wrapped an arm around his shoulder, leading him to the nearest bed, which was Remus'. “Hey... Hey!” He spoke softly to him. “It will be ok in the end. You know it will. Your dad is the strongest person I know and he will get better.”

“He won't Pads. It's been too long now and he hasn't been getting any better.” James buried his face in his hands and cried. Sirius sat with his arm around James in shock. He had never seen James break down like this. The burden of being the Potter family heir was hitting him hard. If his father died, James would have a lot of responsibility on his shoulders and he was not even of age yet. “What do I do, Padfoot?”

“Just wait, James. Your father is only ill. He isn't dead.” Giving James' shoulder a comforting squeeze. “We will go and see him today and you will find out what is going on. It might not be very serious and you are thinking into it too much. Just wait.” Continuing to rub James' arm in comfort. “Let's pack our things before May gets back.”

The two packed in silence and 10 minutes after she had left, May returned with a packed backpack. “I'm ready.” She spoke quietly and stood in the doorway. Her eyes were still slightly swollen from the tears but she was no longer crying. “When are we going?”

“Now.” James spoke quietly, keeping his back to May as he made sure he did not look as if he had been crying. “Right. I'm ready. Sirius?”

“Yes.” He spoke softly, picked up his bag and moved over to May. “You ok, Princess?” Wrapping his arm around her waist, kissing the side of her head. She nodded silently as the three of them left the dormitory to make their way to Dumbledore's office.
