Disclaimer: How much I may want to be the inventor of this great series of books, Harry Potter and all the other characters don't belong to me. I'm just a pathetic fan girl who likes to let them do the stuff I want them to do. For the rest, I'm pretty sure I've got nothing to do with them. Boohoo.
Warnings: SB/RL. Slash. Boy/boy. If you don't like it, then please don't read it, otherwise I'll cry when you leave disgusted reviews.
A/N:My first fic I post on this site… I hope you won't be too hard on me, because actually I'm Belgian… Yeah, now you know that, you may run away and leave this story for what it is. But, if you don't run away, then please read and review!
Summary: Sirius Black, yes, the famous Sirius Black, finds himself in love with his best wolf friend for a while. Finally, his feelings take over his brains and he confesses his love in a quite strange way... SB/RL. Slash. Rated T...
'You can do this, Paddy!'
'I can do this.'
'You're the man, Paddy!'
'I'm the man.'
'You're crazy, Paddy!'
'I'm cra- Hey!'
James chuckled. He loved it when he could tease his best friend that easy. Then, he sighed. Today was the day. At least, for Sirius. Today, he'd finally admit his love for their wolfish friend, the fifteen-years-old boy named Remus Lupin. James already knew from the very beginning that Sirius was in love with him. He could see it in everything Sirius did. He'd act frankly weird around him: he'd let something fall out of his hands when Remus passed, during the meals he tried to "accidently" stroke over his hand, he'd turn red whenever Remus looked at him in his oh-so-Remus-looking way… Yeah, love…
'Oh, no no no no no…'
'What? What's up, Paddy?'
'I- He- I can't do this, Prongs, I'm not the man. He probably isn't even gay.'
'Does he know you're gay?'
'No… Not yet, I'm about to tell him, remember?'
'So, what if it's the same matter with him? That he is gay, but that he hasn't told you?'
'Do you think so?'
James looked at him and thought for a while.
'I don't know. Maybe not.'
'James!'
'What? I was just trying to cheer you up!'
'Well, you gloriously failed.'
Another sigh, this time from Sirius. He was sure Remus didn't fall on blokes like him. But, he had to tell him. From his second year already, he knew there was something more than friendship passing between them. James was his best friend whom he could tell everything, Peter was his stubborn appendix he tried to shake off but Remus… They'd always had a special band. Whenever Remus or Sirius got scared at night, they'd slip out of their beds and find warmth underneath each other's sheets. Whenever there were troubles with Remus' werewolf-being or Sirius' family, they'd find comfort in each other. And whenever Sirius needed a listening ear, Remus' was always present.
Upon thinking about all the great moments they'd shared in the past, he hadn't heard James' question.
'Sirius!'
'Hmm? What?'
James rolled his eyes.
'You haven't heard a thing of what I said, did you? Thinking of Remus again, about how you're going to tell him you're gay and attracted to him? I thought we'd already set up a plan to which we'd stick?'
'Yeah, I know, but… Oh, just say what you have to say, James.'
'Wow. Okay. I said I was going to leave you alone with your pathetic proposal.'
'What? Why? Where are you going, Prongs?'
'Evans. I just saw her passing the hall, and she obviously needed a man like… Well, like me.'
Sirius choked almost in his laughter.
'Then I wish you good luck, my pal! I don't think she's even slightly interested in a – how did you call yourself? – "man" like you…'
James mumbled some inaudible words, and whispered something like: 'Yeah, hope you choke in your words when you announce it' and 'Just look at yourself, you oaf'. Then he ran after Lily, who desperately tried to shake him off, but failed. Sirius grinned, and took a deep breath. Now it was his time to run after someone.
'Okay, I can do it. I'm perfectly ready for it. I'm the man, and I'm absolutely not crazy. It's going to be good, better, best, and Remus is going to like the idea of being my boyfriend. And if he doesn't… Well, he will. Because I'm Sirius Black, and I'm world's greatest…'
