Authors Note: All the Harry Potter characters belong to Miss. Rowling. Though if I had control of them I'd plaster 'bitch' on Cho's forehead, tar and feather Peter Pettigrew and write in an explicit Hermione and Ron sex scene. But OTHER than that…
Set in the marauders 6th year, 16 year old wizard boys, what better age to fall in love? Also the title of the story is 'Seeing Other People', a Belle & Sebastian song about two boys who fall in love secretly even while being with girls in the open. (brilliant song by the way)
Warning: R for later chapters, Slash, Sirius/James.
(Also, I'm a huge fan of the Lily and James relationship as well but I've always loved the idea of the marauders being more than friends. Except for Pettigrew. He's just a git. Please Enjoy)
'God that's so sick, that's so sick, that's so sick. The trees are rusting and I'm eating toast. The toast is bleeding. The toast is bleeding. The toast has stopped bleeding and I am eating it once more. I hear tapping. I hear footsteps. The thunder is rolling, the thunder is loud, and the thunder is just lily.'
He opened his eyes expecting to see lightning come down and stab into his bed and gets swallowed up by thunder and floods, but instead saw some girl's rear end. 'Lily's no doubt' he thought squinting in the darkness. She was tapping her wand on the desk near James's bed, and pinching his arm with her other hand.
"Lily, don't bother he sleeps like a log, it might take you a few more hours to wake him up"
"O-oh! S...Sirius. Damnit, I thought it was someone else"
"You're not exactly soft while you walk Lily. You were literally thunder in my dreams"
"Shut up. Wake up your stupid friend"
"Whisper erotic things in his ear, that'll wake him up"
"How would YOU know that?"
"That's right lily. Me and James, together, all night, live erotica"
"Shut up. Do I have to knock him out of bed or something?"
"That'll do it, that will."
He turned back into bed irritated at being woken up and inhaled the scent of his pillow. His head was swimming with thoughts of toast, thunder and lily's rear end right when a loud thud was heard and he awoke again from his few moments of rest.
"DAMN, BLOO-"
"Shutup James you'll wake up the entire dormitory"
"Good god who the hell are you-...Oh Lily. Hello, what are you up to at this hour"
"Will you two idiots keep it down?" Sirius was pressing his eyelids tightly together hopeing that by forcing this he could atleast provoke sweet sleep once again
"James you said you'd take me for a walk" Her voice was gradually growing louder (to sirius's dismay)
"Yeah, but at 4 am?"
"Yes, I even asked you last night. Let's go" She pulled him up from the ground and started putting her wand back into her pocket.
"Oh, alright alright. Come along then Sirius" he casually said sitting up looking beaten
"What the hell, why should he come along?" She glanced up looking agitated.
Sirius grinned sheepishly unsure of what to say
"Well he's up isn't he? So make him walk with us". James started fixing his hair and putting the blanket back onto the bed, and coming towards Sirius's bed.
"Damn it james I don't want to come" He put his head back onto the pillow and felt light tugging at the bottom of his pants, he looked up to see James pulling at it like some sort of little boy wanting to go get candy. He looked at him, grinning with a smirk."Piss off James, your stupid girlfriend woke me up, I want sleep"
"She's not my girlfriend. Fine. I'll come up later to get you, though I doubt you'll get any sleep". He punched Sirius's shoulder and started out the door with Lily skipping behind him whispering about why he bothered asking Sirius.
'She's so whiny' he thought. Looking up at the ceiling. With a hazy picture of James walking out the door fresh in his head, he fell asleep.
He crawled out of bed late in the morning, his hair carelessly falling over his eyes and curling on his cheeks, sticky with saliva and sweat. 'oh shit' he thought to himself. He'd missed his first class. The thought of attending any other classes ailed him though to such an extent that he pushed himself onto the bed again. Sitting there for a few more stand still minutes seriously debating if he should attend the classes at all. The sudden thought of having to go to potions right after irritated him even more. 'This is complete crap, I've got a test today haven't I?" he thought as he stood up to look in the dusty mirror in the corner. His hair was elegantly twisting at the tips under his striking jaw-line, a cut was needed. 'Better also brush up on my smile. Melly's been sort of cross with me lately, Quidditch season ended and I'm still lolling around with James all day. Well she's got to just live with it then eh?'
He stumbled out of his dormitory and still felt tired. His thin body curved to the side as he leaned against the wall to clear up his head.
"Took you long enough"
"AHH bloody oh- god. Just you, James, hell, why aren't you in classes?"
"Why the hell would I go to class without you? Lily's been trying to pass notes to me. And the teacher found out and now I look like a downright prat don't i?"
"Only cause you are James, only cause you are"
"Let's go" He said ignoring Sirius's remarks and grabbing him by the wrist. "We'll be late for class"
"We might as well just not go to any today eh?" Said Sirius letting himself be guided by James out of the common room.
"No, we've got a test. Come-on, Slughorn'll throw a fit"
They ran all the way to the dungeons knowing they were late either way. James banged on the door until Slughorn himself came and opened it.
"Yes?"
"Sorry sir, really sorry, we uh-"
"James here fell down on the staircase and-"
"NO I DIDN-"
Sirius stepped on James's foot and continued "So I was going to take him to the hospital wing, but then-"
"Sirius when did I fall-"
He crushed on James's foot even harder. "But then we decided not to go since Potions is by far the most important class of the day." He ended, smiling back at Slughorn.
"Oh, very well then. Take your seats boys."
They both came into the room grinning to each other about their (Sirius's --) clever excuse when the whole class grew dead silent.
"What? It sounds like you lot saw Snape naked or something" Said Sirius looking at their wide eyes. Slowly though, from the end of a class a small giggle came and the class erupted looking at the two boys.
"What? What the bloody hell is so funny you idiots?" Sirius yelled out getting frustrated by their laughter. He looked up to see James frozen and blushing madly. "What? Not you too, what happened?" James cleared his throat and Sirius felt a strong clasp on his wrist come free, when he realized James had been holding his hand the entire time.
"So, James got hurt on the foot or where you two doing something else?" someone piped up.
Feeling slightly faint Sirius crudely gestured at the entire class (luckily professor Slughorn was writing something down) and sat in his seat with James whispering 'sorry, sorry sorry' repeatedly in his ears as he took his seat too.
Will be continued from this scene in next chapter
Authors note: Well that was thrilling. So far its just very PG material I'm sort of building up to form an awkwardness between the two that wasn't present before, rater R for I think 3rd or 4th chapter. Please review and tell me what you think. Thank you
