Finally! I have had this chapter uploaded for about two days now but I've never had the time to upload it. My dad has been playing his Colin Macrae 04 whenever I have wanted the computer... (grr) Anyways here it finally is, I hope that you will enjoy it, I have made you wait far too long... so as a little treat this chap is longer than any other chapter I have written before... it's all for you lovely people...
Aaww, thanks Jennyh, luckily enough I don't have to quit my job, there's only one week of work left, then I'm on a weeks vacation before school starts again... and then there will be more updates :D
AuthoressMegaRose I've worked hard with my Sirius and I'm so glad that you'd want to kiss him :D And hey, that was a good tip, I will tell Remus later that he should try to think about Peter. Oh my I hate lumpy beds... at least it sounds like the decor is really good :P
Carrie Anderson Thank you thank you so much for telling me that my english isn't awful. Thank you so much :D
Enigma, haha so you can also picture a horney Sirius on top of Remus ;) That's exactly what I pictured when I wrote this :D It's awesome that you like it, I really tried to put in some humour but I wasn't sure if people would be able to understand my weird twisted humour XD
Chrliii, you're not childish at all, I get all excited too when someone answers to ones review :D well he is actually going to start playing the game, he has learned from the best after all :D And Lily and James are not together (yet), she has agreed to them being friends under the condition that he doesn't try to ask her out on a date all the time... :D I have read to many Remus/Sirius stories I would have to guess XD Have you read my other fic 'I'm not jealous' by the way? That's also about Remus/Srius. Another very good Remus/Sirius is 'Mmmnecrophilia' by Thieving Gypsy is very very good :D and if you want to read more Remus/Sirius check out my list of favourite stories, it's mostly Remus/Sirius fics. I have tried some french, my best friends boyfriend taught me how to count to twenty and how to say 'I'm sorry, I don't understand.' I speak some Spanish though, I've been taking that subject in school for about five years now.
TheDreamerLady, yup, they are a bit OOC, but thank you for thinking it's cool anyways :P oh, that sounds like the food they serve at my school... you really don't want to know what's in the food, you really dont :D
And this is for all of you who have been wondering. 'Thrust wordy' was my computer's mistake. It has this auto-correction thingie when you write in word, Ihave no idea how the computer changed my trustworthy into thrust wordy and I really do not want to know... I really don't... I believe that my computer is a bit sick and twisted right now, thrust wordy... I laughed out loud when I noticed it though :D It really was weird (giggles)
Lothy I hope you don't think this chapter is short ;)
EsScaper thank you so much for those words. I totally agree with you. The grammar is not that important (unless it is so bad you can't understand anything at all) it's the content of the story that's important. Thanks for reminding me of that :)
Hydraspit you totally made sense. Your words were kind of a summary of this whole fic :D Now I really have to continue with this and finish it, I really wouldn't want to make you cry! I know, it does sound kind of British, all the English teachers I've had during these last five years have insisted on speaking British English. My last English teacher was so snowed in on the Brit-speak that we weren't allowed to speak American english in the classroom, nor write American english in our essays. Then she would just say 'I'm sorry I don't really understand...' (I believe that I have been damaged for life to speak British english) (LOL)
Happyslasher I'm sorry to hear that the food is that dreadful. Maybe I shall send you some Palt? (a very Swedish dish, very good very yummie)
KawaiiMegami86, I'm so glad that you adored it darling!
Sophie Malfoy, another thirty! Thank you thank you thank you :) May one ask, who is Pyro? (curious) Yep I'm also looking forward to the shagging, but we'll get there someday soon (promises) I will update sooner the next time and well, your reviews are so funny I can't help but to review them :D
"You should have seen the looks on Snivellus's and Malfoy's faces! You should have seen it! It was hilarious!" James said spitting out the words between his roars of laughter. "It was priceless I tell you!"
"Please Sirius, there is no one around, can't you let go of my hand?" Remus pleaded. And he was right, the four of them: James, Peter, Sirius and himself, were currently walking in an abandoned corridor and there was absolutely no one around to see them. There really was no need for Sirius to hold Remus's hand but he still held it though.
"I'm sorry but I can't, what if someone comes around the next corner? We've got to make this look believable... I mean if people are going to think of us a couple we should act like one too..." Sirius said obviously proud of his own mysterious logic.
"But we're not a couple!" Remus hissed between his teeth.
"Oh yes we are, will you just stop denying it?" Sirius said and kissed Remus on the cheek.
Peter walking next to James looked like a walking and talking question mark. Peter of course had no clue whatsoever about what was going on. Peter turned to James for some explanation but James just answered with shrugging his shoulders. He would have to ask Sirius later if holding hands and talk in public about their 'relationship' was a new tactic from his side or something else.
"Merlin I'm tired, think I ate to much..." James said and yawned. "You wanna play wizard chess Pads?" he said and stopped before the portrait of the fat lady.
"Riddikulus" Remus stepped forward and said.
"Are you calling me ridiculous?" James asked frowning.
"No, it's the password dunderhead... Riddikulus as in the spell you use on Boggarts" Remus said and rolled his eyes.
"Wasn't it just this morning 'hopping hobgoblin?" James said and climbed in through the opening behind the portrait.
"Yeah, what a surprise Prongs, they actually change the password weekly." Sirius said grinning and followed James through the hole, still clutching Remus's hand.
"And what if I want to go to the bathroom? You will have to let go of my hand if I have to go..." Remus said hoping that Sirius would agree.
"Didn't really think about that... would you mind awfully if I did join you?" Sirius said and guided them to an empty table.
But when he saw the somewhat horrified look on Remus's face he took it back, "I was only pulling your leg, of course you can go to the bathroom alone, accept if you'd want some company..." he added and winked with his eye.
"I'm afraid I will have to borrow Remus for awhile now, not going to steal your 'boyfriend' but I need his help if I want a fair chance to win." James said and motioned for Remus to come and sit on his side of the table.
"Well, you can borrow him, but I will want him back soon I tell you... Peter can play with me." Sirius said and reluctantly let go of Remus.
More than two and a half hours later they were still playing chess. James was about to give it up and call it a night, she was a bit after nine and he didn't feel like playing chess any more, now he needed to practice on the homework they had gotten in Charms. James was about to rise from the table when Remus saw an opening and moved James's bishop to check mate Sirius.
"Check mate!" Remus said triumphantly.
Sirius sighed and shrugged his shoulders. He hadn't seen that one coming at all. He hadn't focused on the game at all. Not really. He had been more focused on staring at Remus.
"Peter, join me upstairs and help me practice with the Bubble head charm..." James said and gave the thumbs up to Sirius. He was planning on coming downstairs a few minutes later to see what they were doing when they were left alone. James wasn't sure if Peter had noticed that they were leaving just so that Remus and Sirius were left alone, but Peter followed him upstairs like the tail he was.
"Finally alone!" Sirius said and made his way around the table so he was standing in front of his so called 'boyfriend'. "I've just been waiting for them to leave..." he whispered in his most seductive voice.
Remus took a look around the common room hoping that they were alone, which they seemed to be unless someone was hiding behind a couch. If someone was indeed hiding behind a couch, Remus would just have to kill him later.
"You were such a naughty boy before dinner honey, having us both tumble out of bed like that before I was finished... that wasn't very nice..." Sirius said and undid his tie. He threw it away and it landed on the chess board.
Remus blushed and looked away. He had a pretty good idea of what was coming. If Sirius was going to strip in front of him he sure hoped that no one would enter the room. What the hell was Sirius thinking?
"I was going to tell you this before dinner actually but then you made us both crash-land on the hard stone floor so I thought I should save it until later..." Sirius said and undid each of his buttons very slowly. He had a mischievous grin on his face and his grey eyes were burning
"Why won't you look at me Moony? Are you shy?" Sirius said and tilted his head to the side.
Sirius didn't wait for an answer. He settled himself in Remus's lap and kissed him on his nose. "What I wanted to tell you... was that lately I have realized something... I haven't had a steady girl or boyfriend for a very long time now. I can't say that I have ever had a steady relationship. What I realized was that maybe I was waiting for the right on to come along... and lately I've begun to wonder if the right one is you." Sirius said and looked straight into Remus's golden eyes.
Remus opened his mouth to say something but the words failed him. He couldn't find anything to say. It sounded so real, so honest. Sirius wouldn't say stuff like that if he didn't mean it? Right? That would just be mean.
"Let me show you that I love you... please?" Sirius said and took Remus's hands and placed them around his waist.
Remus said nothing but he didn't remove his hands either. What was he going to say? If he said 'I love you' the game would be over. Sirius would have won. And he didn't want Sirius to win just yet. He was going to try the 'enjoy this as much as you can' one more time. This time he would try it without panicking.
Sirius took it as an invitation and sealed his lips over Remus. Remus sure did taste good. And Sirius had tasted many wizards and witches in his days. Maybe one of the reasons that he tasted so awfully good was the simple fact that he shouldn't be kissing him, nor should he want to. Sirius tried his trick with the tongue again and this time Remus didn't end the kiss. He answered with kissing Sirius back and letting one of his hand trail up Sirius's back and play with his long black hair that was untidy as it most often were.
Sirius's own hands were resting on Remus's shoulders but he let one hand wander towards Remus's neck. He played with Remus's hair that had grown a bit longer now. Long enough to be in line with his chin. He curled his fingers in the auburn hair and pulled him even closer. "I love you Remus" he said against his friend's lips.
James was quietly making his way down the stairs. He didn't want to disturb the two lovebirds all that much so he tiptoed when he was on the last few steps. He had left Peter upstairs still practicing with the Bubble head charm. He stopped and hardly dared to breathe afraid that they would notice him. If he was gonna play cupid he had to see how things were progressing... Right? That's at least what he had told himself. By the looks of it things were going quite well. Sirius was making out with Remus in one of the couch with his shirt thrown aside. Remus was playing with Sirius hair and after a minute or two James was beginning to wonder if they were ever going to come up for fresh air. The kiss ended, it looked like Remus was about to say something.
"Sirius I...I love..." Remus started. He was about to say 'you' then but changed his mind when he saw the grin on Sirius's lips and the winning look he had on his face. Sirius that fuckhead had just told him all of that bullshit to win the bet. Remus suddenly felt a bit hurt, decided that he can play the game too, and continued with "I love chocolate..."
"I already know that you love chocolate. Why don't you tell me what you were really going to tell me… Tell me that you love me..."
James smacked himself in the forehead. Sirius was acting like a major idiot. He was never going to get Remus to fall for him this way. His cupid plans were going bonkers. This needed heavy maintenance if he was going to get them back on track.
"I was not going to tell you that I love you... you will have to try harder if you want me to tell you that I love you." Remus said escaping from the sofa and leaving Sirius behind with a puzzled look on his face. When he came to the stairs he noticed James. "Erm, how long have you been standing there?"
"Just came... forgot my book down here but I can get it later..." James said and followed Remus back up. He turned around and mimed to Sirius "I'll come down again later...wait here."
Peter had gone to bed and was already snoring loudly when they entered the dorm they had shared for almost six years now.
There was no need to put a silencing charm around the bed curtains, Peter wouldn't hear a thing anyways.
"I saw the two of you kissing so I take it that you followed my advice." James said and patted Remus on the shoulder. "And you were trying to convince me that you don't fancy him... from what I saw it kinda looks like you do..."
"I don't fancy him... I just like him..." Remus said and blushed. He regretted immediately what he had just said.
"It's quite obvious that you like him... I thought you were going to tell him that you loved him..."
"I was actually going to do that, that fucking idiot had led me on to believe that he felt something for me too but then it hit me that he was just playing his stupid fucking game!" Remus said and blushed even deeper. "I actually believed him when he said that he loved me... I must be a major idiot..." he said and sighed.
"You wanna know what I think?" James said and put a comforting arm around his friend. "I think that Sirius is to damned scared to show his true feelings. That's what I think. And if he doesn't figure it out soon I will make him figure it out... Actually I'm gonna to talk to him right now... you go to bed Moony. Prongs gonna teach Padfoot a lesson."
"Damn it Sirius, did you fall of your broom and hit your head during Quidditch practice? 'Cause that would certainly explain your stupid behaviour!" James said as he came down the stairs.
"What? What have I done now?" Sirius said and looked confused.
"That wasn't nice Sirius, to lead him on like that. You really hurt his feelings..."
"Hurt his feelings? Are you talking about what happened just now?"
"Yes I am! I've been watching the two of you, what's this with you holding hiss hand and announcing that you are his boyfriend? I'm inclined to believe that your game is just a big excuse to make out with him whenever you want to!" James said and gave Sirius a scrutinizing look.
"It's just a part of the game, and I'm pretty sure that I didn't hurt his feelings... if you asked me he was just enjoying it... playing the game too you know" Sirius muttered.
"How dull can you get? Of course he was enjoying it! You promised me just hours ago that it was just a game and I believed you... it's so damn obvious! Why can't you see what I see! Never mind, I'll just give you a good advice until next time you try to 'wrap him around your finger' as you called it. Try to be a bit more romantic. And when things heat up between the two of you, don't remind him about the bet like you just did, that's the worst thing you can do. If you want to wrap him around your finger then don't talk about the bet anymore. Try to be romantic for once. And I do suggest that you go upstairs and apologise. And for your own good I hope that you mean every word you say this time... I'll be waiting down here for awhile so you can apologise to him in private. And I do hope that when I see both of you tomorrow you won't be playing around with his feelings... good night Sirius..."
Sirius was just dumbstruck. He had no idea what to tell James after that impressive speech he had just given. He sighed and left the couch to make his way towards the stairs. He was going to apologise to his Moony. He was. And he really hoped that his apology would be accepted. He would do anything to make Remus forgive him. According to Prongs he felt really hurt. That had not been his intention at all. If Remus really felt as hurt as James hadsuggested, Sirius was going to make this apology the best one the world had ever seen... 'Cause Moony didn't forgive easily...
Alrighty now, now the time has come for you to tell me what you thought... I really want to know. It's so much fun to read all your reviews. You are wonderful people, I really love you. I walk around with a silly smile on my face after checking my e-mail XD anyhow, Liked? Loved? Hated? anything else? (whispers:I love chocolate...)
p.s Crosses my fingers that my crazy computer hasn't changed any more words (pretty please? Won't you be a nice little computer?)
