:Chapter 10:
Flaw of Impervius was love
Lily sighed, she felt warm and safe talking to Sirius like this, it felt as though James was talking to her and reassuring her as Sirius words comforted her. The warm embers of a dying sun had by now been replaced qith a dazzling moon, illuminating the eerie limits of the forbidden forest.
'He's a bit of a plonker sometimes, hes my best friend, what he did to you I find-'
'Sirius,' Lily said firmly 'you don't have to side with me, you and James have been through a lot too.' She stood up and looked awkwardly towards the clock.
'We talked till late, we haven't done that since we were 17,' she laughed, and then becoming solemn 'I'm sure your lady friend misses you already.'
'Oh that,' Sirius laughed quietly 'nah, she can wait,'
'Goodnight, Padfoot,' she added using his old nickname 'I have to speak to James in the morning, even though I'm not looking forward to it,'
'I'll talk to him, he loves you, I just have to make him see it,' Sirius smiled and he left, with that Lily curled up beneath her covers and didn't bother to change. Lily fell into a peaceful sleep, else where Sirius was on the way back to his own room when he realised James was most probably still awake.
He rapped on the door patiently, awaiting James to open up, when he didn't Sirius knocked even harder and was met with a disgruntled James.
'Padfoot?' James said, squinting in the darkness, Sirius sighed, typical James not to have his glasses to hand.
'Accio glasses,'
'You really should keep 'em by your bed,' Sirius laughed as James handed him a steaming mug of coffee, then turning more serious 'James, I've come to see you about Lily,'
James sighed and took a seat at his desk, with Sirius settling himself down on the edge of James' four-poster, watching James carefully in the patchy light emitted from the candle on James bedside table.
'I don't have anything to say about that,' James said quickly 'all that I do have to say is that I didn't know her as well as I thought I did,'
'James we all knew she was a deatheater, just because of that, just because she was under the imperious curse you-'
'That's just it,' James sighed, leaning his head on his hands, then rummaging his fingers through his hair 'she wasn't' he added looking at Sirius.
'God,' James sighed frustrated, then running his hands over his face 'I still love her, but after, after she killed her own parents I had my doubts if she was the same Lily I fell in love with.'
'Why were you so mean to her then? I mean, sure a deatheater but-'
'I thought you of all people would understand the meaning of Deatheaters murdering someone close to you!' James snapped, and Sirius looked away.
'Sorry,' James mumbled 'I shouldn't have said that,'
'No you bloody well shouldn't have,' Sirius roared
'You, of all people know what Deatheaters are like, that child will be just as bad as she was,'
'You can't know that, Lily was under a spell,'
'She wasn't Padfoot, she was-' James paused 'she wasn't, she was the spy, the only other Auror who knew was Peter, and Peter wasn't exactly going to rat out Lily now was he?'
'No,' Sirius admitted 'if she hadn't been a deatheater, would you have gone through with marrying her?' Sirius added, with a slight note of hope in his voice.
'I'll never know now, will I?' James shrugged
Yes you will know, thought Sirius, I'm not letting you two ruin something you both love, even if I loose you both in the process.
'I'll see you in the morning Padfoot, I have to teach second years in a little while,' and Sirius left James alone, Sirius was frustrated, for many months now Sirius had tried to stop himself from dwelling on the memory of Alizèe and their daughter, Jen. Sirius found peace in his own room, a lovely room that was painted dark purple and a large poster of Black Sabbath had been pinned up next to his bed. Sirius smiled at the motionless Ozzy Osbourne, for a muggle band they weren't half bad, he admitted. Vled Morld Tor still ruled as number one rock band, Sirius chuckled to himself as he clambered into bed, alone. Knew I should've gone back for Vivienne, he thought furiously, noticing the cold patch next to him.
