It was snowing at Hogwarts; nothing could be seen for miles around from the castle windows. All the students were outside, playing, it was the Christmas holidays and only a handful of students had remained. All accept one were outside.

Sirius Black

He was lying on the couch, not moving at all. He was gazing into the fire, his long waist length hair spread out like a fan on the armrest. His eye make was smudged across his cheeks and his lips were stained a dark strawberry. He was wearing a strange array of clothing too, a tails jacket, without a shirt underneath and a pair of dirty jeans that hung halfway down his buttocks. His nails were chipped, and his skin dewy from tears.

The portrait on the other side of the common room swung open, but Sirius didn't move. A very cold Remus Lupin stepped inside. His cheeks were flushed and his golden eyes had fire dancing inside them.

"Sirius"

Sirius didn't stir, nor look round, he didn't even move.

"I'm getting to grips with what you said

No it's not in my head

I can't awaken the dead day after day" Remus called across the room. He started to make his way to the couch.

A sudden flush of anger raged across Remus' eyes.

"Why don't we talk about it?

Why do you always doubt that there can be a better way?

It doesn't make me want to stay, you know I can leave, leave you here in this mess!" Remus started softly but shouted the last of his words!

A long silence descended on the pair.

"Fine" Remus, broke the silence, always am he thought to himself. Remus turned to go, but then turned back, he had more to say.

"Why don't we break up?

There's nothing left to say

I've got my eyes shut

Praying they won't stray

And we're not sexed up

That's what makes the difference today

I hope you blow away" Remus shouted, tears in his eyes, on the verge of falling onto his cheeks. Sirius looked up, his pale eyes burning an icy wind. His cheeks were wet. "You say we're fatally flawed

Well I'm easily bored, is that ok?

Write me off your list

Make this the last kiss, I'll walk away" Remus whispered. His voice was soft with sorrow. Sirius got up and hit his fist up against the Gryffindor wall. He started kicking at what ever was in his reach. All the tension in his body took to the surface. His anger was uncontrollable. "Why don't we talk about it?

Why do you always shout it

given time we might forget

Let's pretend we never met Why don't we break up?

There's nothing left to say

I've got my eyes shut

Praying they won't stray

And when I'm sexed up

That's what makes the difference today

I hope you blow away" Remus' passion exploded through his words." "Fuck off Remus! Fuck off!" Sirius shouted, kicking the table, which was up against the bay windows. "Screw you, I didn't like your taste

Anyway, I chose you and that's all gone to waste

It's Saturday, I'll go out

And find another you" Remus stormed, leaving Sirius in silence in the wreck common room. As Remus slammed the portrait shut, and Sirius collapsed onto the floor, into tears.
