Severus led me through the halls to the Room of Requirement. Excitement thrummed through my body. It was so hard to believe that it was all happening now. Severus and I were taking a step I didn't think we'd take so soon. I felt my hopes dashed a little when Severus let go of my hand, patting down himself. He huffed, blowing some of his hair out of his face.
"I forgot something. Can you wait here for ten or fifteen minutes tops?" Severus asked.
I nodded, some of the excitement flowing away. "Sure, I'll be right here."
"Thank you. I'll be right back." Severus took off down the hall at a brisk walk. If I didn't know better I'd say he wanted to run, but didn't want to show how desperate he was. It warmed my heart a little and took away the small amount of disappointment I felt at Severus leaving me here alone. It was obvious he wanted to get here as fast as he could. I'd give him the benefit of the doubt.
I leaned against the wall, running my hands over the cool stone. The roughness of the all the bumps of grooves ingrained themselves on my hands since I had been standing in the hall waiting for Severus for over twenty minutes. I wasn't mad, but I was worried and a little nervous. Severus was one to always keep his word. I knew that much or at least what I heard from Lily. My mind drifted to the possibility that Severus might be messing with me. I shook the thoughts away. Not possible. I refused to believe that everything between us had been some sort of hoax. My imagination was not good enough to imagine all the things that were said, felt, tasted between me and Severus. Although as the minuets melted into thirty it was getting harder and harder to believe that something wasn't wrong. Severus wouldn't stand me up for no good reason. I decided to try and find him when my wondering landed me in front of Remus.
His head whipped up as I turned the corner. Remus looked down at a piece of parchment, small dots moving across it, the Marauders Map. I was surprised when Remus dropped the map and flung his arms around me. "There you are. I've been looking for you forever. James is really upset and he won't talk to me or Peter. He says he it has to have you there. Nobody else will do. I know this is a lot to ask given what has happened between you guys, but I think he really needs his best friend now. He seems visibly shaken." Remus tripped over his words and by the end I was jogging to get to James. Despite the weirdness between us I'd be there for my friend. Remus followed close behind, taking the front when they entered the common room, leading me to James, tucked in a chair by the fire. He lifted his head when heard my footsteps, his eyes were bloodshot, trails of tears stains marking his face. He shot out of the chair, wrapping me a hard hug. I tried to pull away, he was having none it. He held me tighter. I gave in wrapping arms around him, patting his back in what I hoped was a soothing matter. Remus stayed off to the side, worry lining the crinkles around his eyes. His bright amber eyes softened when he saw James relax against me. My heart broke for my friend. James started crying again in my arms and I continued to hold him. I had no idea what could cause such a reaction in him. It was hard to fathom James crying about anything. The only thing that might make his emotions go haywire was Lily. Lily. Oh, no. Guilt rode along with all the emotions running through my system.
"James, tell me what happened." I slowly extracted myself from James's body binding hug. This time he let me go without any protest. I had a sinking feeling I already knew what happened to him, but I gave James the room and support he needed from me.
James sat on the edge of the chair he previously vacated, placing his elbows on his knees, hands cupping his face. New trails of tears ran down his face. It felt like a punch to the gut all over again. James may have thought we had something but me leaving didn't affect him like this. Not that I wanted James back or anything like that. But it sort of hurt to know he never wanted me as bad as he wanted Lily. I banished all the feelings that were coursing through me. It was already established that I was nothing more than a body for James to get off on no matter what he may have said. His reaction to Lily was a dead giveaway.
James sniffed a little, wiping a hand under his nose. "Lily kept asking me what was wrong after class. I had planned on telling her later tonight, but it kept nagging at me and I told her everything. She was quiet for everything then she exploded. She broke up with me. I never realized how much it would hurt to have someone I love do that to me." James looked up at me a new understanding flashing across his eyes. "Sirius if I made you feel this way I'm so incredibly sorry. There is nothing I can say that can make it better. I just hope you can forgive me. I know you and Lily don't understand how I can love two people at the same time, but I do and now I have nothing." Remus gave James a side hug. His eyes meeting mine. A thought hit me. Severus might've run in to Lily on his way to get whatever it was he was looking for. The sudden abandonment didn't hurt so much. If James was this much of a wreck I can't imagine what Lily was going through.
I kneeled in front of James taking his hands in mine. "I'm sorry James. I really am."
"I feel so guilty. You should've seen the way she was looking at me like I was dirt under her shoe. Not that I blame her." Remus slowly left James and me alone guiding a confused Peter away. "I'm a horrible person." James's eyes shined as he looked down at me.
Something inside me crumbled breaking away from all the hurt and pain James put me through. I knew for sure I could forgive him now. "You are not a horrible person. Just because you made a mistake doesn't make you a bad person. If you want to have a relationship with two people I think it might be best the both people are privy to the arrangement," I said, smiling to let him know I was only teasing. I really did mean what I said. James may have been way off the mark when it came to being with both Lily and I, but that didn't make him a bad person. Hell we've all done things that we're not proud. I'm just sad that so many hearts had to go through the grinder in this situation. No matter what happened everyone was going to hurt some way or another. My hurt led me to Severus so in way I had thank James for what he did to me otherwise I might have stayed away from Severus. I know Lily and James will find something out of this strange situation. I did and they would too. Although it may not be what anyone might expect.
"You have a point. Will you help me with some of my homework? I can't think straight right now. I'm really worried about Lily. She ran off and I couldn't find her no matter where I looked."
"I'm sure she's fine. I think she just needs some space right now."
"I know you're right. I want to make sure she's oaky." James's concern for Lily didn't sting as much as I thought it would. He didn't do any of that for me then again I think he loved us in very different ways.
James and I spent the rest of the afternoon working on our homework. Peter and Remsus stayed away. I would've liked it a little better if there were here with us. It was little strange to comfort the man that cheated on me about his girlfriend dumping him for cheating. James and I had been through so much together. One incident couldn't take away all the good times I had with him. I'd be there for my friend as much as I could.
As it neared dinner James refused to eat. "I don't think I can stomach anything right now. It's tied up in knots."
"You have to try and eat something," I scolded lightly. It'd do no one any good if James passed out. James continued to flat out refuse. I put my hands on my hips. "Fine, I'm going to go eat dinner and bring you back something to eat. I'll be back soon."
I turned to go down to eat when James hugged me from behind. "Thank you, Padfoot. I don't deserve a friend like you. You always make me feel so much better and so good." James's voice dipped down a little. His thoughts seemed to be taking a different turn. I had to get out before they were fully formed.
I stepped out of James's arms turning to look at him. "You don't have to thank me for being your friend. I'm going to go get you you're food." I scrambled out of the common room feeling James's stare on backside for the whole way. Oh, no I hoped he wasn't thinking certain things. No, there was no way. James must be feeling a little lonely after the break up with Lily. No more. I put aside everything, focusing on taking care of my friend.
I walked down to the Great Hall and got quite a shock. Severus was sitting at the Gryffindor table right beside Lily, holding her hand, whispering to her. Lily looked like she'd been through hell. Emotionally she probably had been. Her eyes were red, her normally combed hair was in disarray. Severus pulled her against his side. I knew that he was taking care of Lily. I made my way over to them when Lily looked up from the table. Her eyes went wide, she got up from the table quickly, rushing over to me. She squished me to her smaller body.
"Sirius I'm so sorry. I had no idea that James was seeing you too. I'm sorry." I rubbed her back. It was similar to what I did for James earlier.
"You have nothing to be sorry about. I'm sorry." I felt the crushing weight of guilt of what Lily was going through. Her bright green eyes filled with tears as a small smile graced her face.
"You don't have to sorry either. I'm just so glad you seem to be doing well. Severus clued me in. To be honest I always thought you two might hit it off if you weren't always claiming that you were enemies."
"Really?' I crinkled my nose in confusion. Lily led me back to Severus, making sure I was sitting next to him. He frowned at me, dark eyes glowing with unsaid things.
"Yes, really. I was just telling Severus the same thing." Lily was handling the situation better than I expected. I was glad. She'd be back on her feet in no time. Severus seemed to be the remedy to mend a broken heart.
Lily went back to eating her dinner leaving me beside a very quite Severus. "So?" I said, not knowing what to say. That only happened when I was around Severus.
"So? What do you mean so? You and Lily were cheated on by the same person and all you can say is so. That's why you went to the Room of Requirement the other night isn't it? You were in so much pain and you didn't say why. I know you wanted to give Potter the time to do the right thing, but I wish you could have told me. I'm even more convinced that he'll want you back." Severus crossed his arms over his chest. I cupped his face, gently turning it so he could face me.
"Actually I'm doing well and that's thanks to you because I found you. And there is no way James can get me back. I was more worried about Lily. I'm so happy she has you to be there for her." I pecked Severus's lips, his eyes almost bugged out.
"You kissed me in front of the whole school." Severus didn't sound mad only shocked. I looked around the Hall to see there were some surprised gazes but nobody appeared to care.
"Yes I did. Are you mad at me?"
"No, it's just I thought you might want to hide what was between us."
"Nope, I'd rather let everyone know than keep it to ourselves and it gives me the freedom to do this." I kissed Severus more deeply, earning me a whimper as I nipped at his bottom lip to open up for me. I pulled away smiling to find Severus a little dazed. It was a good look on him. I gave him one more kiss for good measure. "What did you go get this afternoon?"
Severus colored a little, the blush covering the apples of his cheeks all the way down to his neck. Severus dug through his pocket, pulling a small vile with clear liquid. "It's lubrication for—you know." Severus's blush deepened as he struggled to explain himself. "I know there are spells to stretch and lubricate…certain areas instead of that I want to feel you stretch me and not some spell. That's where this comes in." Severus held up the vile then put it back in his pocket. My face heated at the images of stretching Severus. My prick twitched with interest. I calmed my body as best as I could. Now was not the time to stand up with my arousal to show the whole world. "I apologize for not returning to you. Lily was waiting for me near the Slytherin entrance and I couldn't leave her. Did you wait long?"
"First of all there's nothing to apologize for. Not long. Maybe about thirty minutes. I would've waited longer, but then I went to go look for you. That's when Remus found me and took me to James. I got an idea. Lily why don't you hang with Severus and I in our home away from home for the rest of the night. I know someone who owes me a game of chess. I'll meet you guys there. I have to take some food up to James."
Lily smiled softly. "I'd love that. Are you sure you want to take him anything?"She frowned, probably not understanding my reasons.
Severus glowered at the idea. I know he didn't want me to be around James. I had to do it. He was still my friend and he was hurting. "Yeah. I'll be there soon." I ate fast so I could meet Severus and Lily that much sooner. Severus was still angry when we parted ways.
"I'll be right there," I promised, kissing his cheek. Lily giggled at the display. It would be hard for me to keep my hands to myself now that everyone knew. I kept it to the minimum. Severus's cheeks glowed as he showed Lily where we had been staying together for the past few days.
I took James his food. He was having an intense discussion with Remus and Peter. I didn't want to interrupt. I left the food next to Moony knowing he'd get James to eat. If James noticed me he didn't say anything.
I ran all the way to the Room of Requirement. Severus and Lily were already in the middle of a game. I watched commenting on some of the moves Lily made. "Are you sure you want to move your pawn there?" I asked, rubbing my chin. My mind whirled with all the possibilities of the moves on the board.
Lily smiled widely, emerald eyes sparkling. "Yes, just watch." And I did. Lily ended up winning, putting me in the hot seat to play her. After a grueling game Lily ended up saying, "Checkmate." She leaned back in the chair. She stifled a yawn, covering her mouth with her hand. "That's how's it done."
Severus was sitting next to me chuckling softly. "I told you not to make that move but no you had to go with your gut. If you followed my advice you might have won."
"Hey, hey I did the best that I could, okay?"
"Your best lost you the game," Severus pointed out.
"I bet I can beat you."
"I'd like to see you try."
Lily's laugher startled us both. "You two are so cute together. As much as I'd like to see someone other than me win I think it's time for me to go to bed. I'm going to head out."
"I'll walk back." I pointed at the board. "And when I get back I'm going to whoop you arse."
"Show me what you." Severus's smirk, shot straight to my groin. I think the game of chess had to wait. I wanted to get Severus in bed doing other things with arse.
"You don't have to do that." Lily gathered all her stuff.
"I insist and since I lost I will carry all your things. Hand them over." I wiggled my fingers until Lily relented. "I'll be right back," I called to Severus.
"I'm going to shower while you're out. Night Lily." Severus went in to the bathroom. The water started running and I had a mental flash of pale skin just wanting to be flushed with arousal. Damn, that was a nice thought.
"Goodnight, Severus," Lily called out.
I walked Lily to Gryffindor tower. She kept ribbing me about our chess game. It was so nice to talk to her as a friend. In the face of all that she went through today she was holding herself together well. I dropped her off at the portrait, getting another hug from before she slipped through the hole. I started walking back to the Room of Requirement when I heard my name shouted. It shook me to the core.
"Sirius!" James yelled. He looked furious as he climbed out of the portrait hole and marched over to me. James's face was red as he stood in front of me, chest heaving from his labored breathing. "What's going on? You're with Snape now?!"
I was stunned at the ferocity of his tone and words. James never spoke to me like that before. My brow furrowed as I asked, "How'd you know?"
"You're not denying it? Some people said they saw you kissing him! How could you? Are you with him now?"
The silence in the corridor pressed in on me as James waited for my answer. I had the feeling my answer would shatter some old relationships and create new ones. Was I ready for that to happen?
