A/N: Hi everyone. This is my first ever attempt at anything slashy so I'd like to know what you think.

WARNING: SLASH (mild)











"Truth or dare?" Remus Lupin asked the dark haired teenager in front of him.

"Dare" Sirius replied without a second thought but with a large grin on his face. Remus sighed, Sirius had picked dare every time tonight and he had done it every single time. So far he had performed a strip-tease to most of Gryffindor house (to the delight of many of the girls) stood on his head and had eaten 30 every flavour beans in one go (including several rather strange flavours) to name a few.

After Remus looked around the room his eyes settled on the third of the group of four friends, James Potter. "Alright Padfoot I've got a dare for you. Padfoot I dare you to kiss James for one minute."

"Why me?" James shouted in protest, "I might catch something."

Remus and Peter both laughed. Sirius just smiled and said, "Sorry about this Prongs but a dare's a dare and I don't back out."

James nodded acknowledging his friends statement and their heads grew closer. James hardly noticed when their lips first met but within a second he had most definitely noticed.

At first Sirius kissed James mechanically. His body was acting freely of his mind as he kissed his best friend. Then a thought struck Sirius' mind; he was enjoying this. The kiss was tender and Sirius wondered what James was thinking at the time.

James was thinking thoughts not far away from Sirius' own. When Remus had said the dare he had realised that he would have to do it, but he wished it would pass quickly. Now James was wishing it would never end. He would never get to do this again although he knew why the girls kept coming back for more from his best friend.

Remus and Peter just watched as their friends kissed each other. It looked like they were enjoying every minute of it. Remus took a glance at the watch on his wrist and saw the second hand return to where it started from.

"You can stop now" Remus said doubting the pair would hear him.

He was surprised as they immediately pulled apart. For a second Remus thought he must have imagined the way they had been kissing, the looks on Sirius and James' faces told Remus otherwise.

When James looked at Sirius he saw a look which said 'we need to talk' "He has to be angry with me" James thought.

The game of truth or dare continued for a while longer but nobody was really interested anymore and before long Peter then Remus went to the Gryffindor 5th year dorms.

Sirius and James were left alone in an uncomfortable silence. They sat that way for what seemed like forever but in reality was only half an hour. Patience was not one of Sirius' virtues and he got up to leave the deserted common room. If James wasn't going to say anything Sirius didn't see why he should.

James didn't say anything as Sirius got up instead he grabbed his arm and pulled him into a passionate kiss. Sirius briefly resisted before giving in to the taller man's deep kiss. They parted breathlessly looking each other in the eyes.

"That's twice now, James" Sirius stated plainly, "We have to talk."

"I know, it's just I don't know what to say."

"That's a first, James Potter lost for words." Sirius said feigning shock.

"You're not full of them yourself Padfoot." James replied softly.

"How's this then; I have kissed my very male best friend twice in two hours and both times I felt something I didn't know you could feel with guys. The only thing is I still think that girls are hot so I don't know what's happening. It's your turn."

"Maybe you do have words about this. Words that pretty much described what happened. Now let me tell you what happens next." James paused, "I say that we shouldn't hide these feelings and we get it out in the open."

Sirius just nodded as he stroked James' hair. Their lips met for the third time with no less effect than before.

Sirius and James walked hand in hand up to their dorm room.

Their brief kiss before bed was watched by Remus who just smiled at his friends.
