And for those who don't know, 'ambiguity' means.

1. Doubtfulness or uncertainty as regards interpretation: "leading a life of alleged moral ambiguity" (Anatole Broyard).

2. Something of doubtful meaning: a poem full of ambiguities.

I can't write without writing Severus. So he is here.

Chapter 4 -

"Doesn't he know that its killing me?" Remus asked himself as he walked to his first class, Potions, with the Slytherins. Sirius had Defense Agenst the Dark Arts, which was just fine because Remus was fearful that if he was anywhere near Sirius he'd launch into 'Have you thought it over yet?' every five minutes.

"Who and What is killing you?" A silkly-just-finished-puberty voice said from behind Remus, making him spin around to come face to book with Severus Snape. Severus was the one who's nose was burried in the book. The Book intiled 'One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi'. Severus had read it over a hundred times. But it never got boreing.

"Its really none of your business, Snape." Remus said plainly. Normally he wouldn't be so out-of-character but with all thats been happening lately he was a little on edge at the moment. "Just trying to help" came the voice behind the book, to which Remus raised a brow. "Whats got you in such a good mood, Snape?" The sandy hair'd boy asked, tilting the book slightly so he could look Severus in the eyes.

Severus merely shrugged, "Pettigrew." He said, smirking slightly. Remus was deeply confused. "'S Peter doing now?" Severus shrugged again, then as an afterthought said, "Its really none of your business, Lupin." Seeing the look on Remus' face, Severus' smirk grew, "Wow, cuts both ways, doesn't it?" Severus asked the werewolf before heading into the Potions classroom.

Potions went okay. So that was a lie. Potions went horrid, but it ended early. Severus and Remus had been glareing at each other the whole time before Remus' anger got the best of him and he didn't pay attention when he picked up some of Mortianna's nail clippings and added them 2 steps early, resulting in a botched Potion and a very big mess.

"Mr. Lupin, do you know what you did wrong?" The professor had asked Remus as Severus left the room with a satisfied smirk on his face. Remus looked around and sighed, "No sir."

"You don't know what you did.. lets try again Mr. Lupin, do you have ANY idea what kind of danger you put not only yourself, but your classmates and me in aslo?" The Professor asked, narrowing his eyes at the wide-eye'd little boy.

Remus nodded hurridly. "How much Danger, Lupin!?!?" His teacher demaned to know. "A..alot.." Remus stuttered out with his teacher right in his face. "Mr. Lupin, you will be scrubbing bedpans this saturday. Without your wand."

Remus winced at the Punishment but was happy to finally get out of there.

Meanwhile..

In Defense Agenst the Dark Arts, which was still going on, Sirius sat in the back of the class. Next to Peter. "Sirius do you understand what the teacher just said?" the small yet tubby boy asked Sirius. "Shut up Peter, I'm not in the mood." Peter was taken back, but went back to scribbling all over his paper.

'What would it be like, to be with Remus?' Sirius woundered, sighing slightly. He supposed if Remus kissed him he could pretend Remus was just a flat-chested female. But that would hurt Remus' feelings.. wouldn't it?

Sirius looked down on his black parchment. He picked up his quill and dipped it into the ink, letting the well of the quill get full before he scribble a few words on the paper, just to make it look like he was looking..paying attention.

If it wasn't for the sex I could be gay. Sirius thought, because then I'm just hanging out with my friends..

But he knew Remus wasn't like that. Remus was emotional. Remus would want Sirius to be with him only if he wanted too. Remus wouldn't force Sirius into anything Sirius didn't want to do. Maybe if we take it a little at First I could get used to it.. Sirius found himself smiling at the thought. Sure, girls were nice but.. they didn't really know him like Remus knew him. Sirius supposed he could try it. It cetainly wouldn't kill him.

"Mr. Black!" The professor said, suddenly right by Sirius, banging a ruler on the desk. The sound echo'd throughout the now amazingly silent room. The professor leaned over Sirius to read his parchment allowd, "'Misters Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs present.. the Mauraders Map' what is this Mr. Black? Were you paying attention at all?" The teacher asked Sirius.

Sirius shrugged, "I solemnly swear I was up to no good." He said, hiding his smile. Sirius' professor rolled her eyes before saying "Mr. Black, you have detention this saturday. You'll be scrubbing bedpans in the hospital wing.. without your wand."

Sirius sighed sadly. Peter was humming to himself, "Whats that your singing Peter?" Sirius asked, still sorrowful of the punishment he had just recived. "Oh, muggle music, 'Its just another manic monday.. I wish it was sunday.. cuz thats my funday.. its just another manic monday.."

"Peter?"

"Yeah Sirius?"

"You can't sing.."
