James was just going to grab his coat.
Somehow he stumbles in on them.
And they don't realize he's there.
Severus is crying once more.
"Shh..I've got you."
Sirius has repeated that for days.
He's never told him it was going to be okay.
He can't see Snape's face; it's buried in Sirius' vest.
"Don't leave."
"I won't." Sirius says and James can hear the smile on his lips, "You know I won't."
He doesn't know if Severus believes him.
But James knows Padfoot is completely serious.
