A/N & Disclaimer: So sad that I wish to own something I will never have. Unless you count the books, now sitting happily upon my bookshelf. Also… um… well. This is awkward. Oh, I ship weird pairings. Not that you wanted to know that. I'm counting this disclaimer for every chapter.

Warning: Slash, and a bit of lingo.

A whole bit in italics is meant to be in third person, whereas the normal writing is Sirius' POV.

Prologue.

Love is a powerful thing – or so dear old Dumbles believes. Fact is… how do we know it to be true? So that is why I, Sirius Orion Black, will now ultimately prove that love either does or does not exist. Why would I do this, you ask? Well, why on earth not? How? Well, I've actually already proven it – but I shall not divulge my secret now. Oh no, everything can be told in a flashback…

The two boys stood on the top of the Astronomy Tower. Thousands of stars looked down at the couple, winking down at them in a friendly manner.

"You are so naughty." The one said, nearing the other one. The brown haired one glanced up.

"I was taught by you." He said cheekily. The taller one laughed. It was more a bark of a laugh, and it made his dark hair tremor around his face.

"Of course, Remus. You were taught by me." The barker said cockily.

"I cannot believe you came." Remus whispered, now painstakingly close to his friend.

"Was there ever any doubt?" Sirius whispered, lacing his fingers through Remus'.

"A little, I admit." Remus said sadly. "I didn't think you were… you know…"

"I'd always known you'd liked me." The Black son replied. "It was a bit hard not to miss."

"What did I do?" Remus asked worriedly.

"You fed me your chocolate, you gave me a flower… I'm still wondering about that, you know?" Remus chuckled nervously. "You scooped breakfast out for me in the mornings… and for James, I know, but you always gave me an extra piece of bacon… and crept into my bed at night when you thought I was asleep…"

"Wait… so you weren't asleep?"

"Yes, Captain Missing-the-Obvious."

"Isn't the correct phrase Captain Obvious?"

Sirius sighed dramatically. "No, Moony, not from where I'm standing."

Remus shot a questioning look at him.

"Moony, I always held you." He said softly.

"I thought it was coincidence."

"Aren't you supposed to be the smart one?"

"Of course…"

"Then act like it, you dolt!"

Remus cocked his head and raised an eyebrow.

"Act smart? Sirius, have you seen where we are? Two sixth years out of bed after hours…"

"And one's a prefect… Boy, Moony, you are daft!"

"I was just about to say the same." Remus glared at Sirius.

"Oh, and don't give me that look! You can't do it with a Sirius face."

Remus tried to glare for another few minutes, but failed at Sirius' pun. "It's' not even funny!"

Sirius pretended to be hurt. "I'm not funny? Me? The Padfoot? I'm hurt, Moony."

"As was I when you called me daft." Remus reprimanded him. Sirius groaned dramatically.

"Fine! You're undaft! Happy?"

"Almost." Remus winked.

"And now take it back!" Sirius demanded.

"Take what back?"

"I'm not funny." Sirius grumbled.

"Okay, you, Padfoot, are not unfunny."

Sirius scowled.

"Stop using my techniques!"

"Stop tempting me!" Remus countered.

"Tempting you with what?"

"Those lips of yours." Remus looked at his friends' lips. Perfect… pink… kissable. "Can I test them?"

"Remus, you have absolutely no tact" Sirius chastised him. "You don't ask someone if you can kiss them! You just do it! Like this!"

Sirius pulled Remus closed and crashed his lips down onto his friends'. They stayed that way for a while. No movement, just lips against lips. Forming perfectly to the other's. Eyes closed in the temporary bliss as the magical feeling of the other overwhelmed them.

Remus was the first to pull away.

"Wow!"

He opened his eyes and stared up at Sirius.

Sirius winked wickedly… His hands moved around Remus' waist and drew him in. They just stood there, a couple staring at the night sky…

Remus sat up in bed. His whole body wet with sweat.

He'd kill Sirius tomorrow! He had the knack to put someone to sleep after a thing like that.
