Chapter 30: It's Not My Fault

“Oh for love of Merlin.” May groaned when she woke up, slowly sitting up. “I hate alcohol.” Holding her head. She looked next to her, where Lily and Hannah were fast asleep. May slowly climbed out of bed, trying not to disturb them. She groaned as she stretched out, groaning quietly as she walked towards the door, moving into the kitchen. In the sitting room, there was only Sirius awake with a cup of coffee between his hands. “Please tell me you have a slight hangover.”

“Sorry.” He chuckled. “Didn't think you'd be up this early.” May sat next to him and Sirius wrapped his arm around her, pulling her into her side. “You are not used to this.” Kissing her hair softly. “Do you want some tea?”

“You said the magic words.” She groaned and moved away from him, to allow him to stand up. “Alcohol is evil!” Burying her face in her hands and groaned. She collapsed back onto the sofa. “I did need last night.”

Sirius laughed as he walked back into the living room with her cup of tea in his hands. “Up you get. I have caffeine.”

May sat up straight and took the drink from Sirius. “Thank you.” Sirius sat next to her with his own refreshed cup of coffee. When May sipped the drink, she gave a satisfied sigh. “Much better.” She held her cup carefully and sat back into Sirius' side. “I am not drinking for a long time.”

Sirius laughed softly and sipped his coffee. “I doubt that will happen.”

“Why is that?” She spoke quietly and returned to sipping her tea.

“It is my last year and I intend on having a very big celebration at the end of the year.” He chuckled and took a bigger gulp of his coffee. “Especially my birthday, Christmas, New Year's, your birthday and end of exams.” They both laughed as James walked into the sitting room. “Morning Prongs. There's fresh coffee in the kitchen.” James just grunted and walked into the kitchen. “He's worse than you.” Sirius whispered in May's ear.

May chuckled and sipped her tea. “I can see that.” She then downed the rest of her tea, the heat of the liquid, slightly burning her throat. “Do you think we could go into Diagon Alley today? We can get our supplies before we go back to the house.”

“Good idea. We could all go.” James said as he came back into the room with a cup of coffee and a piece of toast. “I need to get my things too. I think Moony is meeting his dad.” He sat in one of the spare chairs in the room. “We could go into muggle London and have some lunch.”

Sirius nodded. “Sounds good to me.” He kissed the side of May's head. “Will be nice to get of the Wizarding life for a few hours.”

The party of seven people moved into muggle London and Lily took charge in taking them to the best place to eat. “I know the perfect place.” She hooked her arm through Hannah's. “It's not too expensive but the food is delicious.” They chuckled as Lily and Hannah led the way with Sirius and May walking together behind them, who were closely followed by Peter and James. Remus had already gone home with his dad.

Once they reached the small café, they sat together and began talking about the new school year ahead. “I still can't believe that Dumbledore made you Head Boy, James.” May laughed as she sipped on her cup of tea.

“I agree.” Sirius joked and kissed the side of May's head, his arm rested on the back of her chair. “It's official. He's gone completely bonkers.”

James kicked Sirius under the table. “Shut up!” He smirked. “It was a surprise to me too.” He laughed. “We'll have to try and get along now, Ev – Lily.”

“I agree. Reluctantly.” Lily chuckled and the others laughed. Their food arrived and they continued chatting about the next year. The Marauders and Lily were a little upset that it would be their last year at Hogwarts but they couldn't wait. “I think that we should all make the most of it. With this danger of the war brewing, we should have fun while it lasts.”

Everyone looked at Lily in confusion. Hannah spoke up, “Um.... Who are you?”

Lily laughed. “I know it is NEWT year but, it is our last year.” She smiled and blushed brightly. “I know I will be grumpy and bossy as soon as I begin studying but before that we will all have fun.” She raised her glass. “A toast. To all the years to come.”

“For all the years to come.” Everyone clinked their glasses together and chorused together.

They all ate their dinner with loud chatter. “Be right back.” Sirius said, kissing May's cheek and left for the bathroom.

“So?” Hannah pressed May. “What's it like living with him?”

May laughed. “It's all right, actually. This is only temporary. It will only be permanent when I've finished school.” She sipped her drink.

James groaned. “Come on Pete. The girls want a girlie chat.” The girls laughed as James and Peter stood up and left for the bathroom.

“Now to the real 'so'?” Hannah grinned. “Have you told him?”

May bit her lower lip and shook her head. “No. I'm too scared to.” Running her fingers through her hair. “I don't know if I should. Should I?” She looked over her shoulder quickly, just in case Sirius was behind her. She turned back to the girls. “A millions things have been going through my mind. I thought about what I would do if I were pregnant. Like school. Where I would live.”

“Did you think of names?” Hannah asked cheerfully.

“Hannah!” Lily scolded her. “So what did you think?”

May laughed and blushed brightly. “Thomas for a boy and Elizabeth for a girl.” She laughed.

“You're pregnant?” A surprised voice came from behind her.

May froze for a moment and turned to see the three marauders had come back. “No. I'm not.” She stood up. “I thought I was. But that was ages ago.”

“What?” He whispered angrily. “Why didn't you tell me? Do you know what, forget it!” He threw a ten pound note on the table and left the café.

“Sirius!” May called after him and ran after him. “Sirius!” She chased after him, as he walked quickly down the street. When she caught up with him, she grabbed his arm. “Stop! Please, listen!”

“Why should I?” He towered over her. “You didn't even bother to tell me that you thought you were pregnant.”

“But I wasn't!” She spoke loudly, tears running down her cheeks. “I didn't tell you because I was scared and I knew you would be angry.”

“Angry? I'm furious!” He shouted at her. “I thought we were being careful. I thought you were being careful!” May struck him across the cheek. “What was that for?” Cradling his cheek with his hand.

“Don't you dare blame me!” She shouted at him. “How dare you?!” She pushed his chest. “It's not just my job to remember everything!” Tears violently fell down her face, her eyes bloodshot from crying. “So, don't put this on me!”

“You didn't tell me! We've always been careful!” He growled in anger at her, ignoring James' hand on his shoulder. Neither of them had noticed that the group had slowly joined them. “You should have told me!”

“Now you can see why I didn't.” May spoke softly.

“I never forgot to use the charm!”

“WE did forget!” Her tears were falling faster down her cheeks.

“When?” He shouted at her.

May didn't even flinch as he shouted at her, but she raised her own voice. “The day dad died!” She shouted angrily, her voice breaking. “I'll get my stuff from your flat and I'll be out of your way!” Pushing past him.

“Fine!” He shouted at her, standing still and watching her go.

Hannah and Lily ran after May, while James and Peter stayed with Sirius. They all didn't say anything to the other person. “I can't believe him! I thought he would be at least understanding!” She walked through the Leaky Cauldron and to the wall. She tapped the third brick from the left above the dustbin with her wand, revealing a busy Diagon Alley. “I know it wasn't the way I wanted to tell him but I was going to tell him.” She took out her key and unlocked Sirius' main door. “I still can't believe the way he acted.” She sobbed and walked up the stairs to Sirius' flat. Her hands shook as she tried to unlock the door.

“Here.” Lily took the key off her and tried to unlock the door. “What's wrong?”

“Only I can do it. The key is charmed. Only the owner of the key can unlock the door.” She turned the key and unlocked the door, walking inside and straight to the main bedroom. Her knees finally gave way and sat on the edge of the bed. “What do I do? We've never argued like this before.”

Hannah and Lily sat either side of her. Hannah held her hand. “I don't know, May. Let's get your things and our things and we can go back to your house.” May nodded silently. “Come on.” Hannah stood up, walking to the wardrobe and pulled out May's clothes. “Do you want everything?”

May knelt on the floor and pulled out her suitcase from under the bed. “Yes. I'm not coming back here.” Putting the suitcase. The three of them packed May's things and fetched their things. “Are we ready?”

The front door opened and all three of them froze. They stood in the bedroom with their things in their hands. Sirius walked into the living room, while James walked into the bedroom. “You need help?”

May's bottom lip trembled as she nodded. “Has he said anything?” she whispered to her brother.

“No. He just stayed silent and smoked a whole packet of cigarettes.” James took May's suitcase from her. “Peter's going to stay with him for now and I'll come back here tonight.” He looked at Lily and Hannah. “I'm guessing you're coming too.”

Hannah and Lily nodded vigorously. “Of course.” Lily smiled at James. “I'll write to mum and dad and let them know.”

“Me too.” Hannah smiled. “Let's go.” She put her arm around May's shoulder.

“Wait.” May said as they walked out of the bedroom. She took out her keys and took off the two keys. “Here.” She said to Sirius, who was sitting on the sofa with another cigarette between her fingers. “Have these.” Putting the keys to the flat on the side table. “See you in school.” Tears fell silently down her cheeks as she turned and left the flat with James, Hannah and Lily.

For days, both May and Sirius were depressed. No matter what their friends said, neither of them had the courage to speak to the other. Hannah and Lily had decided to stay with May for the rest of the summer, while James stayed with Sirius, but Peter went home to his parents. When it was the day for them to return to Hogwarts, James came back to the house with Sirius.

“You girls ready?” James shouted up the stairs. Lily came down first. “Where are May and Hannah?”

“Just getting their last bits together. Where's Sirius?” She asked, glancing behind her.

“Outside. Smoking.” James sighed heavily. “He's a mess, Lily.”

“So is May.” Lily sighed heavily as they stood at the bottom of the stairs. “She's barely spoken to me and Hannah.”

“Same with Sirius.” James sighed and ran his hand through his naturally messy hair. “I can't believe that they weren't careful.”

“Me neither. I always thought May would be careful.” Lily smiled slightly. “I just hope they get their act together and get back together.”

“I agree.” He stopped talking when May and Hannah appeared at the top of the stairs, dragging their trunks. “Need help, underage witches?”

May glared at him. “Took your time!” She puffed when she dropped the trunk on the floor and allowing James to levitate her trunk downstairs, while Lily levitated Hannah's. May walked down the stairs but stopped halfway when the front door opened and Sirius walked inside. “Hi.” she whispered when their eyes met.

“Hey.” He said with no emotion and pulled his gaze away from her own. “Are we going, Prongs? Don't want to be late.” He shrunk Hannah's trunk and James shrunk May. The two girls came down the stairs and picked up their trunks, placing them in their pockets.

“Lookie!” James shouted.

The small house elf appeared. “You called, master James?”

“You may go to Hogwarts now.” James smiled gently to the small house elf. “I don't want you to be here alone any longer.”

“Thank you, Master James.” She smiled and bowed. “If you ever need me during school, do not hesitate to shout, sir.” Bowing again and disapparating on the spot.

James smiled at May, who was smiling at him. “Dumbledore gave her a job. She's to stay there permanently.”

“Oh right.” May said with slight disappointment. “At least, she'll be kept busy.” Smiling a little. “Let's go.” She walked out of the door, not looking at Sirius as she passed them.

They caught the Knight Bus to get to Kings' Cross. The girls sat at the back of the bus and the boys at the front. May could not help but watch the back of Sirius' head. “Stop it, May.” Lily hissed at her. “Give it time. The two of you will be together in no time.”

May shook her head. “Don't think so.”

Hannah sighed heavily. “Don't worry May. You should enjoy the single life.” May nodded silently. The bus finally arrived at Kings' Cross and the many students and parents climbed off the bus. They met up with Remus, who was looking very tired from his transformation a few days before. “I told Remus. If that's okay.”

May nodded. “He'll find out soon enough. So will the whole school.” She smiled slightly. “Come on. Let's just get on the train.” The three of them found a compartment to themselves but the Marauders soon joined them which cause a lot of awkward silences. James, Lily, May and Remus had to leave for the prefects' meeting.

Hannah looked at Sirius, studying him for a moment. “You're an ass. Did you know that?”

“What now?” Sirius looked at her, a soft glare in her direction.

“You know what. It wasn't May's fault and now with the way you've been acting with her, it is killing her!” Hannah spoke angrily. “She's barely eaten and barely slept since you two broke up.” Sirius stood up and walked to the door. “Run away! That's what you do best!”

Sirius turned around and glared at her. “Why are you all blaming me? It wasn't just my fault that we forgot a charm!”

“She was worried about her dad! She wanted some company and love from the man she loved.” Hannah stood up and shouted at him. “She loves you! When we stayed with her, she spoke your name in her sleep!”

Sirius stood there watching her for a moment, before turning around and leaving her alone with Peter. “Interfering bitch.” He hissed under his breath and he walked down the train, the opposite direction to the prefect compartment. He felt like the bad guy but he wasn't. It wasn't just his fault. It was May's fault too. He stood by a window, watching the countryside go by.

“Hello Sirius.” A small voice from beside him. He turned and grinned slightly to see Aimee from Ravenclaw, in his year. “You have a good summer?”

Sirius shrugged a shoulder. “It was all right.” Turning to face her. “How was your summer?”]

“Rather boring.” She smirked slightly. “So? You ready for our last year ever in Hogwarts?”

“As I'll ever be.” He moved closer to her. “Are you?”

She grinned like a cheshire cat. “Yes. Definitely.” Her hand rested on his chest. “I've heard a rumour that you and May have broken up.”

“It's true. What's it to you?” His fingers brushed along her cheek.

“Padfoot!” A voice came from behind him before either of them could speak. He saw Remus coming towards him. “What are you doing?” He pulled him away from Aimee. “Hi Aimee.” Remus spoke softly and calmly to the Ravenclaw. He dragged Sirius away from her. “You are an idiot!”

“Fuck off!” He pushed Remus away.

“You still love May. The two of you have an argument and break up and you are already onto the next girl.” Remus growled at him angrily. “You and May should talk!”

“Like I said, fuck off!” He took a swing at Remus, but the werewolf was able to dodge it in time. “I don't need you or anybody else telling me what to do!” Walking away, back in the direction of Aimee.

“So, you're just going to let her go! Just like that?” Remus shouted to him. People began looking out of their compartments to see what all the noise was about.

“Yes! So it gives you a chance with her. Isn't that what you want?” Sirius strode back up to him and standing directly in front of him. “A chance to get May! Everybody knows that you love her!”

“No I don't!” Remus pushed him away. “You do though or you wouldn't be defending her like you are now!” His own voice rising in volume. “For the love of Merlin, go and talk to her!”

Sirius thought for a moment and looked behind Remus. “No! I'll do as I please!” He turned to talk to Aimee, who was chuckling. “What are you laughing at?”

“Just go and talk to her. Ease your mind.” She said, putting her hand on his arm. “Then come and see me.” She smiled, turning and walking away.

Sirius watched her leave but his mind was in conflict. He wanted to talk to May but he knew they would end up arguing. Well he would. But he wanted to talk to Aimee. Well not necessarily talk to her. “I don't know.” He spoke softly. “Forget it.” He turned away from Remus, who was staring at him in shock, and he walked after Aimee.

Remus watched as Sirius disappeared into a compartment. He turned around and walked back to his own compartment, where the others were sitting. When he went inside, he shook his head at May. “I'm sorry. I tried. He's acting strangely.” Closing the door behind him and sat next to Hannah, holding her hand immediately. “Give him time.” May sighed heavily and looked out of the window, remaining silent.
