Summary: After being kicked out of James' home they (James and Siri) go to Remus'
A/N: If anyone wants to see anything or has any lines to add I'd be happy to put them in… Oh yeah, this is sort of AU it really isn't meant to agree with the canon so much as it is to entertain. Times and places have been skewed to fit. And the new rule is that you can use magic when you turn seventeen. Remus is seventeen, James and Siri are sixteen. (Unless that was the original rule…)
Those idiots. James and Sirius. Lucy and Ethel. Bonnie and Clyde. Wizards Makner and Hobson. James and Siri were right up there with the worst troublemakers of all time. Apparently I, small, quiet, studious, was supposed to offer some sort of limit to their madness; however, instead of me wearing off on them they corrupted me. And now they were outside screaming their heads off, wonderful. I let it go on for about fifteen minutes before my mum got fed up with the yelling and told me to
"Let them in already for Merlin's sake." Grumbling I went to unlock the front door. Siri rushed in and swooped over to my mother thanking her for "Allowing unworthy me into your lovely home" and begging her to "excuse my foul language" using the "I had a horrible childhood and it's my parents fault." line. James rolled his eyes and lugged both their trunks into the foyer. There was an uncomfortable moment when my mum struggled with where to put them, but that was resolved when Siri automatically went into my room and collapsed on the bed. We didn't have much money, employing the leading wizarding researchers to find a cure for lycanthropes is expensive. James sighed once more and began to haul both the trunks down the hall. I could have easily given him a hand, being a were does have its perks, but it was much more rewarding to watch him swearing at Siri, the trunks, and occasionally at me. Finally making it to my room he went in and I followed, shutting the door behind me. I turned and mumbled a silencing spell, the joys of being seventeen. However, the curiosity was eating me alive,
"Alright. I can't take it any more. What the hell happened to you two?"
James pled silently with Sirius, Sirius pled silently with James, I pled loudly with both of them.
"Look I don't really care what you got into. It's not like I'm going to tell anyone. Didn't I support you the time you put a collar on Mcgonagall the cat? How about the time that you two led the black market and got that second year Hagrid those, those, things. And what about that time that the two of you changed where the halls led and even Dumbledore got lost. And what about…"
"As I recall Remus you invented the animagus collar, you kept the books, and you came up with the changing spell, so quit acting so damned angelic."
"Siri please just tell me. Please?"
During this exchange with Sirius, James had slunk over to the armchair in the corner and was attempting to disappear. He look quite relieved that I was putting Siri on the spot instead of him. Siri looked back at me.
"You know, the Muggles say curiosity killed the wolf. I'd look into that if I were you."
"IT'S CAT, YOU IDIOT, NOW TELL ME!!!"
"Fine, fine. No reason to get your knickers in a twist Moony. You see, I went down on James here, then his dad walked in. And that, as they say, was that."
I opened my mouth to berate Sirius for not even being able to come up with a decent lie, when I looked over to James, he was red, bright red, fuchsia red, and he was squirming. Shit. I toddled over to the trunks, sat, and put my head in hands. I stayed like this for some time until apparently something was decided in the furious whispering that was going on in the corner.
"Ummm. Moony? It's not that bad is it? I'm sorry. I shouldn't have… You aren't going to… Fuck. Please don't…"
And here we have it ladies and gentlemen, a rare sight indeed, Sirius Black, lost for words. I lifted my head from my hands, opened my mouth, they both leaned in anxiously,
"You're GAY???" I screeched at James, the heads immediately withdrew themselves.
"Well, not exactly, Sirius is bisexual,"
"I know that, you miserable fucker, Siri has always been bisexual as in you buy him something and he'll have sex with you." I muttered into my hands. James bravely continued,
"and so am I."
"Well that's just wonderful, why couldn't you have told me?" my voice rose during the sentence and by the end I was a full volume.
"Well we thought-"
"that since you're from a mixed caste family-"
"you might not have the same acceptance-"
"as someone from a pure-blood-"
"however-"
"it seems we were wrong about the acceptance thing-"
"from anyone."
"So we'll just be going now." James finished.
I dashed in front of the door and blurted out my second horrendous secret,
"But I'm gay." and with the release of a secret kept from everyone for five years I collapsed into tears.
