A/N: I've been spending quite a lot of time updating all of my different fics, and I've decided to delete the ones that aren't getting any reviews. So if you don't want this deleted, please take a second to review after reading. Thanks :)

Here is chapter 2:


"...Yes," Sirius answered uncertainly.

"How could I have forgotten James's name began with a J?" Remus asked, more to himself than to Sirius.

"Because you're not as smart as you like to make out," Sirius answered, grinning when Remus scowled at him.

"Maybe I should go and speak to James about this conversation we just had," Remus said, standing up and heading towards the bathroom. Sirius shot up from the bed and pushed Remus down to the floor with a thump.

"Don't you dare, Moony. Fine, you're very smart. Happy?" Sirius said. "Nerd..." he muttered quietly, receiving an amused look from Remus.

"I wasn't actually going to tell him, I'm not that cruel," Remus said, getting up and sitting on his bed. "But... I have a plan."

"A plan?" Sirius questioned.

"A plan," Remus started, glancing over at the sleeping form of Peter in the corner of the room. "A plan to figure out whether James likes you, and a plan to get you two together..."

"For one, James doesn't like me, and tw-"

"- How do you know he doesn't like you?" Remus interrupted. Sirius shrugged.

"Well, he's straight and, you know, in love with Lily Evans," he answered.

"Maybe it's all a cover-up," Remus suggested. "So people wouldn't guess his real secret."

"If he was gay, he would've told us by now," Sirius pointed out.

"Not really, I only found out you were gay today..."

"Remus, stop being such a smart-ass and just leave it. If you get involved in all of this, it could jeopardise mine and James's friendship."

"Jeopardise? Wow, Padfoot! You used a big word," Remus laughed.

"I'm not that stupid, you know," Sirius said.

"I know that Pads, and if you really don't want me to get involved, I won't. Okay?"

"Thankyou, Moony," Sirius said, smiling. That night, Sirius dreamt of James, and only James.


"Where's Sirius?" asked James, looking around frantically.

"He went to Hogsmeade – Christmas shopping, I suppose," Remus answered, absorbed in his book.

"Where's Pete?"

"Probably in the kitchens again, where else?"

"Right," James laughed. "Guess it's just you and me now, Moony," James said, slinging his arm casually around Remus's shoulder.

"Yeah," Remus answered, keeping his eyes on the book.

"So, what was it that you and Sirius were talking about last night?"

"Huh?"

"You know, you were both on Sirius's bed, curtains shut..." James winked. Remus gagged.

"No! No way! You dirty, disgusting, sick-minded..."

"...Moron?" James finished.

"Yes, moron. You thought...? Eurgh!" Remus shuddered, and went back to reading his book.

"So, if you guys weren't kissing, then what were you talking about?" asked James.

"Honestly Prongs, kissing? Just because you fantasize about kissing Sirius, doesn't mean you take it out on me," Remus said.

"Pfft, me? Kiss Sirius? Pfft... Moony... You're gross," James said, ears turning a little pink. Remus smiled. He was going to find out if James liked Sirius, one way or another.

"I'm just stating the obvious," Remus said.

"The obvious? I obviously fantasize about kissing my best mate," James said sarcastically.

"You're being sarcastic?" Remus questioned.

"Duh," James answered, rolling his eyes.

"Hmm, because I'm not so sure you really are being sarcastic..."

"What do you mean?"

"I think you actually do fantasize about kissing Sirius," Remus answered, delighted when he saw the blush in James's face, and the wide-eyed expression that only lasted for half a second.

"Do I look gay?" James asked. Remus didn't answer, but just laughed. James stood in front of him, hands on his hips, hair standing up in all directions.

"Do you really want me to answer that?" Remus asked, smirking.

"Yes, I do," James said.

"Well, at the moment, yes, you kind of do."

"REMUS!" came a loud voice from behind them. They both turned to see an enraged, and red-faced Sirius Black storming towards them.

"Yeah?"

"What are you talking about?" Sirius asked, forcing a pleasant smile on his face.

"Nothing," James answered, glaring at Remus.

"I was asking Remus," Sirius said, turning his face back to the werewolf, who looked as if he'd rather be anywhere else.

"Just the Transfiguration essay," Remus lied. He wasn't a very good liar either, seeing as his voice was always a lot higher and he spoke extra fast when he was lying. "Bye," he squeaked, and ran away. James and Sirius were left staring after him; Sirius looked baffled.

"You weren't really talking about that, were you?" Sirius asked, hoping Remus hadn't mentioned the conversation from the night before.

"No, he was telling me about this girl he likes," James answered. Sirius grinned evilly. If he could find out who Remus liked, he could get 'involved' in getting them together – revenge, for if Remus did decide to get involved with Sirius and James.

"Oh, and who does Moony like?"

"Charlotte Brown in Hufflepuff," James answered. It wasn't a complete lie. Remus did like her, they just hadn't been talking about that.

"You mean snotty spotty Charlotte?" Sirius asked incredulously. James laughed.

"Yeah, gross, I know," he answered.

"I think she would be a good girlfriend for Peter," Sirius said.

"Hmm, you're right. Both snotty, both spotty and both on the chubby-side," James replied, receiving a snigger from Sirius. "So, did you buy your Christmas gifts?" he asked.

"Yep," Sirius answered.

"What did you get for Moony and Wormtail?"

"I got a huge bar of Honeydukes finest chocolate, and a basket of the special Honeydukes sweets for Pete, and this long, weird, Moony-ish book for Remus," Sirius said. "What have you got for them?"

"Moony-ish book?" James questioned. Sirius shrugged, urging James to carry on. "Um, I got Wormy some Bertie Bott's and Moony some chocolate, seeing as he's a bit of a chocoholic," James said.

"Right, funny how we both buy Pete food," Sirius said, laughing. James laughed too. They made their way towards the Great Hall early for dinner, seeing Peter already in there (the first person), waiting patiently for his food. James and Sirius glanced at each other and grinned, reading each others minds: 'MORE food?'


Feels weird writing Sirius and Remus, without them being together... I'm so used to doing Sirius/Remus fics lol...

Ah well, I hope you enjoyed this chapter..

Reveiw for chapter 3
