I'm so sorry for the total lack of updates, but with Christmas and everything I had no time! But never fear, for I am back. And also, I'm going to be posting updates for my other fics, and posting a few new fics too!

Enjoy!

Chapter Seven - Realisations

When Harry woke up, he stayed in bed, thinking about Sirius. 'This is all wrong. He's my godfather!' Harry frowned. 'Why do I want him so bad? Sure he's nice, funny, cute... Oh Merlin, I'm so fucked-up.'


Sirius was lying on his bed, staring up at the red hangings. 'It's totally wrong. I shouldn't feel like this. I love him though' he sighed. 'My life is as messed-up as Harry's.'


Remus was sat in a chair in front of the fire. He shook his head. 'When are they going to snap out of it and get together? The way they're carrying on you'd think they were oblivious... which is quite possible when it comes to those two.'


Harry went over to his CD Player, which had been charmed by Sirius, and picked his favourite Album. He pressed the Random button and threw himself onto his bed again.

Take away the sensation inside Bittersweet migraine in my head It's like a throbbing toothache of the mind I can't take this feeling any more

He closed his eyes and started to sing along with the chorus.

Drain the pressure from the swelling

This sensation's overwhelming

Give me a long kiss goodnight

And everything will be alright

Tell me that I wont feel a thing

Give me Novacaine

He was so into the song he didn't notice Sirius walk in and lean against the door frame,
listening.

Out of body and out of mind

Kiss the demons out of my dreams

I get the funny feeling and that's alright

Jimmy says it's better than here

Drain the pressure from the swelling

This sensation's overwhelming

Give me a long kiss goodnight

And everything will be alright

Tell me that I wont feel a thing

Give me Novacaine

Drain the pressure from the swelling

This sensation's overwhelming

Give me a long kiss goodnight

And everything will be alright

Tell me Jimmy I wont feel a thing

Give me Novacaine

(Green Day - Give Me Novacaine)

Harry sighed as the music faded, thinking about something he thought he could never have. He jumped when he heard a voice.

"That was beautiful." He spun around, wide eyed, to face the door. Sirius walked over,
and sat on the bed next to him. Harry blushed, and bit his lip. "Thanks."

Sirius suddenly looked nervous. He opened his mouth to say something, when Harry held up a hand. "Wait, there's something I need to tell you, and I better do it now before I lose my nerve. I love you. No, that's not right. I'm IN love with you." He kept his eyes fixed on the floor, and as a tear slipped down his cheek he began to ramble.

"I can understand if you hate me and never want to talk to me again, but I just had to tell you." He stopped in surprise when two strong arms wrapped around him. Sirius brushed the tear away.

"That's exactly what I came in here to tell you." Harry stared at him in shock. "I've loved you for a while. I just didn't know how to tell you or how you'd react." Harry was silent for a moment.

"I can't believe you love me, I thought you'd hate me when I told you." Sirius squeezed him gently, and buried his face into Harry's messy hair. Feeling more loved than he could imagine, he fell asleep in Sirius' arms.

When he returned to a semi-conscious state, he realised two things. One, Sirius was in love with him. And two, he was quite happily cuddled up to the man. A smile spread across his face. His smile widened when the arms around him tightened slightly. He looked up into beautiful blue eyes.

"Hey," Sirius smiled. His smile suddenly dropped and he wouldn't look Harry in the eye.
"Harry, are you worried about what people's reaction to us will be?" Harry looked deep into his eyes.

"No, I couldn't care less. Moony will be happy for us, and as long as I'm with you I don't care." He was gifted with a long, loving kiss for his words.

They were so wrapped up in each other, they didn't hear the door open. Remus Lupin took one look at them, and yelled louder than a howler.

"WELL IT'S ABOUT BLOODY TIME!" The couple sprang apart, and blushed while Moony stood there grinning like a maniac. Finally, Harry coughed and spoke.

"Moony?"

"Yes?"

A pause.

"Knock next time 'kay?"


Thanks to everyone who reviewed, and thanks for waiting. I'm not going to wait this long to post the next chapter, so it'll be up as soon as possible.
