Chapter Six: James' confusion
At the potion's section a Slytherin and a Griffindor were unaware that another Griffindor was arriving…
"SIRIUUUUUUUUUS!" yelled James as soon as he step into the potion's section.
Sirius flinched and turned to face a rather concerted James.
"What the hell do you think you are doing?" asked James angrily approaching his friend.
Sirius was pointing his wand to Snape, Snape's wand in Sirius' left hand, he had obviously EXPELLEARMUS him. Snape was looking at them as a trapped animal. James could swear that he was killing them mentally.
"Give me that" said James taking Snape's wand from Sirius.
"What are you doing Prongs? Defending Snivellius?" asked Sirius disgusted. Why did James bother this much for Snivellius?
Snape looked deeply at James. James seemed to consider his answer very well.
"Let's go Padfoot, we can get into problems" replied James after a while, still fixing Snape. Snape shocked his head in disgust. His expression and eyes clearly saying "Coward".
"When did you start to care about getting into problems mate?" asked Sirius still pointing to Snape.
"I don't but we are at the library, we won't be able to borrow more books if we get into problems here" murmured him. Sirius considered this, yes Snivellius was unworthy of this privilege!.
"Fine" said after a hesitation moment. "I'll get you later Snivellius" hissed to the anger Slytherin.
James through the wand back to Snape but didn't look at him, he wasn't brave enough today to stand the Slytherin's glance. Maybe tomorrow…
Remus was pacing in the bedroom, he couldn't stand anymore his own indifference, two days without him has been too much, they has helped him though to realize his own feelings… so should he give that last step? How will his mate react? "Probably hexing me…"
Next morning….
Severus run into the Marauders and ignored them as usual except for the slight sign he made to his "lover", the other boy nodded imperceptible, "Today near the lake" that was what the sign has meant. An hour later the Slytherin found the Griffindor already there.
"Has hell frozen?" asked sarcastically the Slytherin, his "lover" was never on time, um …that was weird.
The Griffindor smiled shyly, he was nervous, he needed to finish this craziness. He likes Severus but he was losing his friends and his life was becoming hell for this "relationship", not to mention he was probably in love with someone else!.
They kissed passionately (as usual), and lied in the grass. It was a beautiful day and they felt just right lying there, together.
"I really likes you, you know" said the Griffindor casually, finally breaking the silent.
"Oh, yeah! That's why you have always made my life hell!" replied Severus with a sarcasm tone.
"That's my mates doing, I never start the fights, I just help them a little" answered with a grim.
"Oh so touching! I almost believed you don't enjoy it!".
"Well I must admit you are so dam sexy upside-down you know"
"Don't talk about that, I haven't forget you for that!" snapped the Slytherin getting angry with the memory. He gave the other boy a dark look. The Griffindor turned his face, he knew he has been a brat with Severus.
Severus studied his "lover", he looked quite nervous, quite weird… and suddenly all dawn on him…
"This is the last time we'll see each other, like this I mean" said the Slytherin with a matter-of-fact tone, it hasn't been a question but a statement.
The other boy nodded shyly, biting his lip.
"I see" said Severus standing up. He wasn't surprised, he knew this wasn't meant to last for ever, but he felt disappointed nevertheless, deep inside him he has hoped desperately for this to last.
"I am sorry" said the Griffindor, "I was confused"
Severus groaned, "of course" hate and deception in his eyes.
"No I mean, not about you, I mean I though I liked boys but I'd rather girls"
Severus studied his lover, he was being honest..
"You mean you'd preferred Evans" replied Severus coldly, he has been studying them and he knew they liked each other…
James blushed and nodded shyly, was it that obvious? Severus smiled back at him, this time without hate, yes it was obvious that Potter was lost for Evans. He didn't want to admit it but he knew it. Severus turned to leave
"Don't worry I'd like her as well if I liked girls and mudblood of course"
James felt relived; the whole thing has been just a confusion ever since the beginning. He had actually liked the Slytherin but it has been just a confusion, he was definitely straight, and now free to go for Evans!
Remus entered the room, decision all over his face. Sirius was reading in his bed, annoyed. He looked up and read Remus' decision. He smiled "It was about time you know" said him before pulling the werewolf to his bed. They have been waiting too long for this…
