Author's Note: I don't own the song that will be in the fifth year. ^_^ I'm just really addicted to it. I heard a remix of this song, it's by Britney Spears (yeah, yeah the remix was good) and its called Born To Make You Happy.
Anyway, thanks to my reviewers:
Chickenhead- Why was I cursed with you for a sister? ^.~
Sheepie
Emiko Merodi - ::gasps and runs to save you from Mrs. Black::
Jessie Lupin-Black- Ahh! Thanks sweetie!
Moony-Black – Hahaha, I haven't watched Pinky and the Brain in forever. XD
Stigmatized – Ahh!! Go find the Moony!
Godzilla
Rena Lupin
Hahahaha, I would also like to announce that I got my first FLAME!! ::giggles evilly::
Thank you catgal, you gave me my first flame, and it was a stupid one too. ^_^ I did get a good laugh out of it, I'm happy to let you know. I know you may think you're married to Remus Lupin, but hun, I'm sorry to dissapoint you, he lives in the little world of "Make-Believe". Don't worry though, I'm sure you'll grow out it. Er… At least I hope so.
Anyway, enough teasing the flamer, she is totally allowed to have her opionion. ^^
Now onto the ficcie:
Year Five
Remy, Jamie, Peter,
This whole locking me up routine is getting old. If my parents intend to do this until I'm seventy they have another thing coming. I can't stand being in this house anymore. Something is up. Regulus knows about it, he struts about it, smirking the whole time. He's a year and a half younger then me... I don't understand how the two of us could have become so different... Anyway, my fifteenth birthday is coming up, who's going to pop me out of this jail?
-Siri
Sirius,
Maybe you should listen to your parents on this one. I mean I know that you and Remus are meant to be together, but this fight is pointless, it's one you can't win.
-Peter
Wormtail,
How can you say that? Fighting for the honor of your friends is never pointless. If they were telling me to stop being friends with you, I would do the same. I hope you would too.
-Padfoot
Moony,
I am really worried about Padfoot. It can't be healty for him to be cooped up in that house for an entire summer. I'm scared of what he'll do when the pressure builds up on him.
-Prongs
Prongs,
I agree. But what can we do?
-Moony
MOONY!!
IT'S DONE!! I CAN BECOME AN ANIMAGI!!!!!!!!!!! Sirius-test-tonight.
-PRONGS
MOONY, MOONY, MOONY, LOVE!
I can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOREVER PADFOOT!!!!!!
James, Sirius,
Are you serious?
-Remy
Remy,
Hahahahahahaha.... Serious... Sirius... Yes I am Sirius and yes I am serious!
-Siri
Remy,
Hahahahaha... Yes he is Sirius, yes I am serious!
-Jamie
Moony,
James and Sirius just sent me the spell... I... am at a loss for words...
-Wormtail
Guys,
You have no idea at how much this means to me... I love you guys...
-Moony
Remus Lupin,
I know this letter must come as something of a surprise to you... But it's urgent. I need to meet with as soon as possible. Can you see me at the Leaky Cauldron tomorrow? Don't bring Black or any of your other friends.
-Severus Snape
Remus knew what he was doing was stupid. He was all to aware of that. None the less, he was seated in the Leaky Cauldron, feeling extremely nervous. The incident with Lucius Malfoy in third year was still fresh in his mind... They hadn't been able to do anything about that, since Malfoy obviously couldn't remember do a thing to Remus, but the werewolf was sure that Dumbledore had kept an extra close eye on the Slytherin group after that. Remus had a feeling that James had mentioned something of the event to the Headmaster.
But nobody could protect him here. He was on his own, except for the surrounding strangers, and he doubted that anybody would do much, if Severus decided to take him somewhere else...
I'm sitting here alone in my room
Severus walked into the Leaky Cauldron, also looking nervous. He scanned the room, and then saw Remus sitting by himself. He walked straight over to the younger Gryffindor boy without ordering anything.
"Severus." Remus said nodding.
"Remus, thank you for coming... It's important." the Slytherin replied awkwardly.
Remus took a sip of Butterbear trying to swallow the lump that was growing in his throat.
"Your friends aren't here, are they?" Snape asked, casting a shaky eye around them.
Remus shook his head.
"No... I decided to trust you more then they would have thought necessary." Remus replied.
Severus gave him a shaky smile.
and thinking about the times that we've been through (oh my love)
"Thank you... What I've got to tell you... Your life could depend on this okay? That's the first thing you've got to know..."
Remus looked down at Severus's hands and saw they were shaking. The werewolf frowned. What had the Slytherin so uptight?
"Listen Remus," Severus said recovering himself. "You've got to stay away from Black and Potter this year, you understand?"
Remus stared in disbelief.
"But why? I love Sirius." Remus replied simply.
"Remus, please, do this if you want to live. Stay away from Black and Potter." Severus hissed.
Remus felt a surge of anger flood him.
I'm looking at a picture in my hand
"You know I thought you were different from those other creeps you hang around. I don't know what kind of joke you're playing right now Snape, and I don't want to know. I love Sirius, and James is one of my best friends." Remus spoke angrily, and then got up to leave.
In a flash Severus grabbed Remus.
"You've got to listen to me... You really are in danger whenever you're around them... Things are going to happen this year, and you don't want to be caught up in them. If you want to stay safe keep away from Black and Potter."
"If it anything concerns Sirius and James, it concerns me too. I'd rather be dead then be separated from Sirius." Remus answered, looking up at the taller boy.
trying my best to understand
Severus shook Remus in moment of angry.
"You don't get it do you? You're going to wind up dead!"
Remus was slightly frightened now. The Slytherin had a strange look in his eyes. It wasn't lust or hatred... It was fear... for him.
"Severus..." Remus whispered. "Let me go...You're hurting me..."
Severus looked down at the Gryffindor, then sighed and let him go. He looked away, as though not sure what to do now.
"I'm sorry Remus... I just... I don't know... I don't want to see you get hurt..." Severus said choppily.
I really wanna know what we did wrong
"Severus...?" Remus asked, sitting back down.
"Listen Remus... Bad things are going to happen this year. I can't tell you that much... And I'm sorry for that... But I figured you would want to stay with Black to try and protect him." Severus ran his thin fingers through his dark hair. "But... I want you to know, you're not going to be able to... You may put him in more danger, I'm not sure... "
Severus sighed, knowing that he wasn't making any sense.
"Remus, I want you to know that I care about also... I... I've liked you for some time, but I'm not about to hurt you. I can offer you protection this year... I understand that you're going to want to stay by Black's side, but please think about what I've said, please?"
With the love that felt so strong
Remus felt his heart skip a beat in his chest. Severus Snape had feelings for him?
"Severus... I... I don't know what to say."
Remus looked down at his hands and saw that they were shaking now. Snape reached a hand across the table, and gently rested in on his.
"Please, I only have your best intentions at heart... But I will respect whatever you chose to do."
Remus felt horrible at this point, but...
"I love Sirius... He's gone through a lot for me... You're a wonderful person, and I want to thank you for trying to help me... But he's Sirius Black..." Remus said with a grin. "He can do anything."
Severus gave him a weak smile.
"I hope you're right for your sake, Remus. If you ever need me, I'll be there okay?"
if only you were here tonight
"Thank you Severus." Remus replied, standing. "I hope... Well, I hope you haven't gotten yourself into anything you'll regret."
Severus gave him another weak smile, and then stood also.
"May I....?" he questioned for a moment.
Remus gave a small nod, and Severus hugged him. In an instant, he placed a tiny kiss on Remus's pale lips.
Remus opened his eyes in surprised, and Severus backed away.
"Sorry, just wanted to see... and say good-bye." and then he left.
Remus sat back down and placed a hand on his lips, feeling shocked... It was like the opposite of Sirius's kiss. Sirius was intense and firy, where that kiss had been gentle icy... But Remus... hadn't hated it...
I know that we could make it right
Remus shook his head, and then got ready to leave.
He loved Sirius.
*~~~~~~~*
Remus and Sirius wasted no time in getting into a snogging session on the train. Though they got about a complaint a second from Peter and James, they didn't stop until they received a loud knock on the compartment door.
Sirius looked up grumpily from where Remus was panting underneath him.
"Whatdoyawant?" Sirius called.
The door opened and Lily Evans stepped in, and instantly turned a bright shade of red.
"Er...I..." she tried to speak, but could only stare at Remus and Sirius.
"Lily, dear!" James said, instantly jumping off his seat. "Come to ask me out, I knew you'd come around eventually."
This caught Lily's attention.
"Keep dreaming Potter. I wouldn't date you if you were the last being on this planet. I'm here to see Remus."
I don't know how to live without your love
"Sorry he's taken." Sirius spoke as he nibbled on Remus's earlobe, making the Gryffindor groan.
"I'm not here to ask him out!" Lily replied, turning an even brighter shade of red. "I'm here to talk to him about being a Prefect."
"Remy, honey, you're a prefect?" Sirius asked, in between gentle kisses on his neck.
Remus moaned once more, and then tried to push Sirius off of him.
"Siri..." Remus panted. "Not... OH! Stop...that..."
"Ahhh, I think you like it..." Sirius giggled.
Remus finally succeeded in pushing Sirius off of him, much to the Black's displeasure. He pouted on the ground for a few moments, while Remus stood, catching his breath.
I was born to make you happy
"Evans... Now you must die...." Sirius hissed. "You interrupted my snogging session."
"Black, I know that you can't function without getting a snogging session every thirty minutes, so I think I've won this battle." Lily replied coldly.
"Sorry, sorry, Lily." Remus said cutting in. "Now what about the prefects?"
"You're supposed to be up in the prefect compartment Lupin." Lily replied. "Not back here letting your boyfriend shag you."
"Oh..." Remus replied, turning a beautiful shade of crimson.
"No!!" Sirius howled, grabbing onto Remus's leg. "I'll never let go!"
'cause you're the only one within my heart
Both Lily and Remus stared down at where Sirius had latched himself on.
"Siri... love..." Remus began as he tried to pry Sirius's fingers from his leg. "I'll see you in a few hours...."
Sirius looked up, giving him puppy-eyes.
"But there are Slytherins in the prefect compartment! They might try to eat you!"
Lily giggled a little, and then started to walk out.
"Coming Remus?"
Remus bent down and kissed Sirius on the nose.
"I'll sleep in your bed tonight." Remus whispered in his ear.
"Promise?" Sirius asked, his eyes brightening instantly.
"Promise." Remus replied as Sirius let go.
I was born to make you happy
*~~~~~~~~*
Remus followed Lily to the front of the train.
"Hey Lily, why won't you give James a chance anyway?" Remus asked, catching up to her.
"Because he's the biggest show off with a the head the size of London." Lily replied curtly.
Remus laughed a little and nodded.
"That's true, but he's a nice guy. He'd do anything for you Lily." Remus replied. "He's got his heart in the right place, even if his head is a little oversized."
Lily didn't say anything else as they arrived in the prefect compartment.
"Thank you for joining us Mr. Lupin." a cold voice said.
Remus recognized the owner of it as the new head boy...
He nodded and sat down next to the only seat open... Severus Snape.
always and forever you and me
The werewolf half-listened as the Head Boy and Head Girl went through the duties of a Prefect. He couldn't help but wanting to stare at the Slytherin next to him. It seemed that everything had changed between them... But nothing had changed between them.
Finally the Head Boy finished his endless droning about use of bathrooms in the middle of the night, and announced they could do whatever they pleased for the rest of the trip, which was about twenty minutes.
"Hey Severus." Remus finally said after a few moments of tense silence.
Snape turned and looked at him funny.
"What?" Remus asked, wondering if Sirius had given him a hickey...
"You're not mad at me?" The Slytherin asked in an undertone. "For.. at the Leaky Cauldron."
"Oh." Remus said, realizing that he meant the kiss. "No, no. Don't worry about that at all."
"We're here!" The Head Boy called, as they halted to a step in front of Hogwarts.
that's the way our life should be
Author's Note: I don't know how this chapter got so long.... It was more of a filler really, so sorry for sux-age. Year Five is probably going to be long though... ^^;; I have plans... ::cackles evilly:: Review or email at vegetaztwin@hotmail.com
Preview to the next chapter:
The three boys stared down at the letter, where it unfamiliar handwriting it was scrawled:
Thought you might like to see this.
Sirius frowned and looked back down into the envelope.
"See what? An empty envelope?"
Peter and James were silent as they both stared at the ground.
"What?" Sirius asked and then looked down also.
Instantly a photograph caught his eye. Laying face down on the floor, Sirius realized that he must have dropped it while tearing open the envelope. He reached down, and picked it up, flipping it over.
He stared at it for an instant, and then dropped it as if it had bitten him. He didn't say a word, as he raced out of the dorm.
"Sirius?" James called, turning to look to where his best friend had fled.
"James..." Peter whispered from he was kneeling on the ground next to the fallen photo.
James picked it up, and his eyes widened instantly, and he understood why Padfoot had raced off.
It was a picture of Remus and Snape kissing.
