Title: All That Heaven

Author: mia_rosalind (Hermia Rosalind)

Disclaimer: Sirius and James aren't mine. Which I, personally, think is unfair. Though they don't even own themselves which is even more unfair and against some sort of human wrights thing I'm sure.

Rating: PG-13

Pairing: Sirius/James

Feedback: Would be cool = )

There it was, shining so brightly that Sirius' eyes were already beginning to sting and blur from looking at it.

"In the Spirit realm again? And I thought it was Peter who got distracted easily." James remarked, encircling his lean arms around his boyfriend

"I'm not easily distracted. I'm hardly distracted."

"Ah," James murmured knowledgably, pressing kisses onto Sirius' neck.

"You have no idea what I'm talking about, do you?" Sirius said in nonchalant amusement.

Sirius could literally feel James grin as he kissed him. "Not a clue."

"Well, look over there. You can't tell me that you wouldn't get distracted by that" Sirius gestured.

James frowned and placed his chin on his best friend's shoulder. "I can't see anything."

Sirius smirked and leaned further into James' embrace. "Well of course you can't see anything." Sirius said matter-a-factly, "It's part of the sprit realm"

"Well what the hell am I looking for then?" James asked in annoyance.

"Because I can show you." Sirius whispered softly, taking James' hand in his own.

James' breath caught in his throat as colours exploded in his vision. No, not colours. Emotions. Words, feelings, whisperings that sang in his blood and exploded in every fibre of his being, crawled into his soul and pulsed and crackled and caressed everything that James was. It was driving him insane in a good way.

Then he was back in the Astronomy Tower, with Sirius. Clasping his chest and gasping for breath.

"Y'okay sweetheart?" Sirius enquired in worry and concern, pulling James up against him.

"How can you stand it?" James wanted to know.

"How can I stand what?" Sirius frowned.

"That-that feeling." James floundered, tearing away from Sirius who was watching him in bewilderment, and struggling to put a name to what he had just experienced. Finally he just shook his head in wonderment. "God, it's just indescribable."

"What's your point?" Sirius asked, getting considerable more confused by his lover's actions.

"My point is, how can you stand to be away from that?"

"Ah," Sirius grinned in sudden enlightenment, "Ah."

"Ah? Ah what?" James echoed.

"Ah, as in I get it now." Sirius explained, sauntering over to James and twining his arms around his fellow Marauder's neck.

"Get it?" James muttered, "Get what?"

"You think I don't feel that all the time." Sirius clarified in amusement.

"You mean you do?" James asked in surprise, "But I thought you only saw into the spirit realm when you wanted to."

"Ah, I do," Sirius smirked, "-but I'm not talking about the Spirit realm, oh no. I'm talking 'bout you."

James raised his eyebrows, "Me?"

"Definitely," Sirius murmured in confirmation. "Every time I look at you, touch you, hear you, kiss you." Parted lips rested against each other gently, slender hands slid down robes and savoured the taste of skin, and blue-violet eyes bore into hazel eyes with fierce intensity. " I feel all that luminosity. All that radiance. All that heaven."

James took in the vividness of Sirius' amazing eyes, the smoothness of his voice. The talent, grace and sheer brilliance that was loudly proclaimed from every angle, every smile, every word, every single movement. Everything thing that Sirius was and everything that Sirius stood for. Everything that made Sirius as much as a celestial being as his namesake. And he smiled, "I know exactly what you mean."
