He would look into her eyes and wonder.
Did she love him?
Was he the one she always thought about?
He would wonder, as he gazed into her bright emerald eyes.
Those bright emerald eyes that always gazed at another pair of eyes.
A hazel pair.
The gray eyes would suddenly stop watching, hurt.
They didn't want to see the obvious love between the two.
Secretly, so very secretly, he had fallen in love with her.
His gray eyes had been with his best friend's hazel eyes every time.
Every time they had met the emerald ones.
Laughing, joking, pranking, both pairs would do their best to make those eyes flick over at them.
And flick over they would.
But never, never, towards the gray pair.
After being with his best friend for so long,
After hearing about the girl his best friend loved for forever,
Was it so hard to believe he had fallen in love with her as well?
Because he loved her
From afar.
From far, far away.
But it didn't mean that the love shining out of the gray eyes was any less bright.
Or any less true.
However, he didn't want to see it.
The hurt that would be in those hazel eyes,
If he told him the truth.
The amazement and pity that would be in the green ones.
He never wanted anyone to know
The secret love he had for Lily Evans.
No one should ever know.
That he,
Sirius Black,
Had fallen in love
With his best friend's
Love,
Lily Evans.
"Shhh."
