Title: The Result – version B, part 20 in the Discovery Series

Author: Egwene

Rating: PG

Pairing: Sirius and James, yes this is slash.

Genre: Angst

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of his relatives, friends, lovers, professors, enemies…

A/N: I decided when I was writing chapter 5 or so, that I wanted an ansgty, cannon end to go with this story, but I also quickly realised that I wanted to see Sirius happy (feeling familiar?), so I wrote the two endings. I posted the sad one before because I felt it fitted better into the story, and I wanted to make you wait a little -eg- This version is my best version at fluff up to date.

Tell me what version you like the best =D

Sirius was tossing and turning in his bed while sleep continued to elude him.

James was in love with him. The goofy smile he had been wearing on his face all evening reappeared. James was in love with him. Not with Lily or anyone else. With him.

He didn't know if he deserved to be so happy, but he couldn't care less.

When they had walked outside, near the lake, he had forgotten all about the prefect speech he had prepared earlier and he simply taken James' hand before deposing a chaste and brief kiss on his lips.

When he had pulled back, they had looked in each other's eyes for a long time before James had simply said 'I love you too, Sirius'.

The best moment in his life. The first of many to come.

They had walked in silence, hand in hand, back to the castle, to the Gryffindor common room where they had started – much to the astonishment and amusement of the other students – to snog properly on the couch.

After what had seemed to be long hours, Sirius had broken away to breathe and snuggle against his boyfriend. He had asked about the mysterious girlfriend and James had admitted shyly that it had been a devious plot – Remus' plot – to find out if Sirius was in love with him or not. Sirius had burst out laughing; he had promised himself he would thank Remus properly in the morning.

Life had never been so great. He sighed happily as sleep caught him to dream about a love shared.

Well... it's now definitely over... unless I get enough reviews to score one hundred (4 more to go) and the 100th reviewer get a surprise! I hate all those authors who beg for reviews, but I'm so desperate to have 100 reviews for this fic, I'll do anything ;-)
