A/N: sort of a song fic i guess. You'll figure it out. each one is named for a different eighties song. enjoy the prologue!!
Any way you want it, that's the way you need it, any way you want it…
My life has always been perfect. I've always had the hottest girl out there, and I do not joke about that. I've got money, ah, money. I've got the looks. But there is one thing that makes my life constantly imperfect. And I can't fix it.
I had the perfect girl. And now she's gone. She was honestly the best thing that ever happened to me. And now she's the best thing that ever happened to James. I swear any time I see them, she's always like, 'Oh James, how may I serve your pleasure?' or 'Any way you want it, baby, that's the way you need it'. I think my life is turning into a Journey CD. It's making me sick. I mean, Journey's fine, but the whole 'Any way you want it, that's the way you need it' thing's getting kind of annoying.
According to Mooney, my life is now a combination of 'Any way you want it', 'My best friends girl', 'Ask the lonely' and 'Separate ways'. It's ridiculous. But the thing is, I don't think she likes me at all any more.
I have to listen to James sneak into our room every night, pretending he hasn't been out all night shagging her. And then I have to listen to James talk about her, and all her amazing-ness. I did have one moment of silent joy when James mused out loud,
"I wonder who she lost her virginity to, because it definitely wasn't me." It was just one small hit to his over inflated ego. And one giant inflation to mine.
I don't think I can ever tell James that I, Sirius Black, was the first person Lily Evans ever told she loved. I don't think he could handle it. Especially since I didn't tell him at the time. I guess I've got some explaining to do. But don't worry; I'm not going anywhere any time soon. I've got a life sentence. Just as long as none of the thoughts are too happy there shouldn't be any problems.
I am Sirius Black and this is the story of how I fell in love with the girl my best friend was in love with, and in a way, this is the story of how my best friend and the only woman I've ever truly loved managed to get together. Suck on that, dementors.
A/N: Yes this is written from inside Sirius's time in Azkaban. Fun, right? Review!!
