hi. thank you so much for the reviews :) I don't know when the next chapter will be because I'm having work done in my room. This should be the last chapter focused on Sirius. I'll have more werewolves next chapter.
Remus only had to wait for minutes. Soon Albus Dumbledore strode in. his great robes billowed around him. "Professor." Sirius whispered. "I need your help." Remus could see that Sirius was trembling with fear or disgust or shame or something. Remus longed to jump out of the cupboard and hug his friend.
"with what?" Dumbledore asked. "I made a mistake. I told my friends something, something I didn't mean to say to them. It was stupid of me, and careless, and now I'm scared I've lost them forever." Remus wanted to jump out of the cupboard. Sirius needed him, desperately.
"if you want me to help I need to know what you told them." Dumbledore said calmly. Sirius nodded. "you have to promise you won't hate me for it though." Dumbledore nodded. "I'm gay. And I told them, and they'll be like my parents. They will hate me for it."
Remus could have sworn that Dumbledore almost laughed. "they won't hate you. If they have a negative reaction, tell them to come to me. You see, Sirius, I too am gay. If they can't accept you, it may just be that they need reminding that people like me are gay too. Sometimes they just need someone to relate you too."
Remus thought back to his book.
Having someone to relate to is very important. Having someone who is the same as you to look up too, to prove something is extremely important. There aren't many werewolves who have done significant or revolutionary things, and many of them who have, are either not credited, or their lycanthrope is denied.
Remus shook himself out of his thoughts.
"about your parents, I'm guessing they aren't supportive." Dumbledore asked. Sirius nodded. "they believe its a muggle thing. They think only muggles can be gay like Oscar Wilde, and Alan Turing."
"tell them that Grindelwald is gay as well. They support his ideals more, hmm?" Sirius nodded slightly. "thank you. Goodbye, professor." Sirius left.
Remus pulled himself out the cupboard and awkwardly looked at Dumbledore. "I'm sorry Professor. I followed him to tell him it was okay." Dumbledore merely smiled at him.
Remus ran after Sirius to the boys dorm. He walked in a few seconds after Sirius. James was sat on one of the beds. "Sirius, mate, we don't mind." Sirius smiled as James hugged him. Peter got up and joined him, and then Remus walked over and joined in.
he could not help but wish his friends would be this accepting of him. He knew it was impossible though, no one would accept a werewolf.
