Sirius was tossing and turning in his bed while sleep continued to elude him.
James was in love with Lily. He had asked her to marry him, and she had said yes.
Sirius had prepared himself to such an eventuality but in the end, it didn't matter, he was still heartbroken.
James and Lily had been secretly dating for the last three months. He had confessed as much while they were walking near the lake. They had preferred to keep their relationship a secret so they would learn to know each other without the pressure of school gossip.
After all, everyone still expected the Head Boy and the Head Girl to date each other.
Sirius had remained silent while listening to James apologize for not telling him sooner. He had wanted to tell him but he wanted to be sure of what he felt before he did. But at last, he had found it, True Love.
He was still amazed she had agreed to marry him the previous weekend, and Sirius still remained silent.
When James had asked him what he thought about it all, all he had been able to voice was 'I'm happy for you, James.' And he was. Really.
He would burry his feelings deep in his heart, and his best friend would never know about them.
He would stick with him, and witness his happiness; he would be his best man at his wedding, of course.

Rin: I don't know if I'm supposed to apologize or to hide in a dark corner so you won't kill me.
Luci Shadow: My DSL line still doesn't work, but I've managed to work something out. I tried to post it earlier, just for you, but I was late to go to a party…
Harry's Lost Twin: -blushes- I'm glad you like my stories. I'm kinda sad this one is over. Or is it?
Spatula: I hope you're not disappointed… what? I should have put Sirius and James together! I would never have though of that! -eg-
Prongs: Thanks!
LuciusJames Lover: So were you right to be worried? I'm sorry to hear you're not too fond of angst. I hope you enjoyed the story though.
Snuffles2: Oh, that wasn't a bad cliffie, just a little bit of angst, which isn't very surprising. Just wait till I put a REAL cliffhanger in one story… I had to write that sad ending, I hope you understand.
