SILVER AND GOLD
Chapter one
"James" I yelled down a busy corridor, as I saw one of my best friends disappearing into the crowed, James had missed Transfiguration, the idiot better not be pulling pranks with out me!
"Oh, hi Sirius" he says with his hazel eyes sparkling "I didn't see you" of cause you didn't chimes a sarcastic voice in my head
"Where were you? You missed transfiguration" I asked him simply, he stops a moment ruffling his hair, clearly trying to think his way out of not telling me something, he sighs gently
"I was with Remus …" Moony … but Moony should have been in ruins, why the hell was he skiving? "He was upset about something…" James continues and drifts off at the end of his short statement there is definitely something he's holding back.
"What's the matter with Moony?" I'm slightly puzzled and slightly worried not even the morning after the full moon did Re miss classes, James' eyes wander out of my gaze, he is now looking intently at the wall behind me
"Moony likes some girl… he doesn't think he's got a chance, something about her not being his type … he's bit upset about it all" James said still staring fixedly at the wall behind me, why didn't moony say any of this to me? He normally tells me everything, it feels as if James is defiantly holding something back … what is that feeling in the pit of my belly that is making me feel so unsettled?
"Who is she?" I need to know who is prefect enough for my moony … the girl to finally take him away from me
"Some Revenclaw" a list of Revenclaw girls is going through my head, non good enough for Moony, James' eyes drift over to my other shoulder, suddenly looking hollow and shadowed "He's ok now, I gave him some chocolate, he's as good as new" James said grinning, that's our Moony anything for chocolate
"Ok but this girl must be crazy" I mutter quietly "You heading back to the dorm?" He had THAT look in his eyes again, the sparkle that he gets when he is planning something, which was normally no good
"No I have something to do" he stated simply, I gave him a questioning look before he turned on his heels and walked off down the corridor, leaving me alone with my thoughts feeling slightly clueless.
Later that night I awoke to the sound of hushed voices, the deep red curtains of my four poster bed were open, the illuminated clock on my bed side table, shone like a beckon through the darkness, my eyes focused on the clock, it was 3:17 am. I suppressed a groan, wanting nothing more than to roll over and go back to sleep … that was until I heard what the whispering voices words started forming in my sleepy mind
"So what are you going to do?"
"I don't know the person in question is not interested in a person like me"
"I meant what are you going to do about mike?"
"Mike's a nice guy … he's not you know who, but I can't have him … who knows I might learn to love mike eventually…" REMUS IS GAY, oh my god, does he mean mike Phillips, the 7th year Griffindore? He's a year older than us, he's far too old for Moony, and moony doesn't love him … he loves someone else …but who?
"But the werewolf might not agree" my sleepy head is finally awake and my mind is reeling, Remus is gay and is considering going out with Mike Phillips
"Well the werewolf is used to not getting what it wants" the grate emotion that would have been over following this statement was blocked out in a stony hard tone that clearly stated Remus was not happy about not getting the guy he really wants "I guess I just need to think about everything … I'm tired and I am going to go to bed, night James" conversation over RE was closing himself off he obviously didn't want to talk about it any more, what ever it takes I'm going to fix things for Re, he shouldn't be coming out with some guy he doesn't love
"Ok Remmy sleep well" I hear James' reply as he lightly jumps off of the bed, my eyes snap shut as James makes his way towards his own bed. I hear James pull his curtains around him before reopening my eyes and staring into the blackness of the room, my last thought before going into a dreamless uneasy sleep was Remus is gay.
The next morning at breakfast I entered the grate hall and there was Phillips sitting next to Remus whispering something in his ear, jealousy ran through me faster than wildfire, had Remus already chosen Mike? Who he did not love just thought he was nice? Remus should be with the person that he loves I didn't notice until it was too late I have been glaring at Mike since I first saw him this morning, Remmy was looking at me strangely, eyebrow raised in an unasked question
"Morning" my greeting whole heartedly directed at Remus, I smile gently
"Hey" Remus said cutely … did I just describe something Remus did as CUTE!
"Hello" Mike said rather stiffly glaring at me … what did I do to piss him off?
"What's on the agenda for today?" I ask a little too innocently while buttering my toast
"Me and Remus are going to study in the Library" are they together already?
"Oh come on Moony you can't study all day, its Saturday" I whine, giving him my best puppy dog eyes
"What do you suggest we do?" Remus looks at me sternly … ok I'm defiantly getting the impression I have done something wrong, oh well I'm Sirius black I can charm my way out of life and death situations.
"How about a nice game of gobbstones?" Remus smiles I know I've won, I'm grinning because I'm imagining Mike covered in green slime, it is my duty to make Remus see how undesirable Mike is
"I don't think Gobbstones is such a good idea" bloody stupid Mike, why can't he keep his fat Gob shut?
"I suggest we play exploding snap" that moony for you always compromising, I wonder if I can charm the cards to make Mike explode? I smile at Mike innocently, glad at the 'study' date I just ruined
"Its ok Remmy I'll catch you later, I've really got to get my charms essay started" Mike said to Re taking his hand and smiling gently, a spark of anger runs through me. How dare he call Remus Remmy that's my name for him, and he can bloody well stop touching Remus as well he doesn't love you, you idiot, I'm openly glaring at Mike's retreating back
"Siri, what the matter?" Re is looking at me in a confused manner, my face instantly softens
"Nothing" I say a little too quickly "What about a game of chess now it's just the two of us?" Re nods, and I'm happy I now have Remus to myself
"Re" I say softly trying to draw his attention away from the chess game that I'm losing badly
"Yes Sirius" in that tone that made it obvious he new I wanted something, I absentmindedly told my queen to move across the board to take Remus' castle
"I know," I said hoping that he would understand and that I wouldn't have to say anything else
"What do you know?" Remus asked in a tired tone that suggested that he thought I that I thought I knew everything
"That your gay and your considering dating mike, when you don't love him … you love someone else" Remus looks beyond shocked I probably shouldn't have approached this topic like this but I never was any good at keeping my mouth shut, I've always been impulsive like that. Remus' mouth is opening and shutting slowly like a goldfish out of water, if this wasn't such a serious conversation I'd be laughing at him right now "Re say something please" his eyes are glazed over and unemotive
"How did you find out?" good he's not denying anything
"I over heard you and James talking last night," I have an impulsive need to hug him and comfort him, tell him everything is going to be all right. But maybe he needs space, but the last thing I want right now is for him to feel rejected, his eyes shine with unshed tears "I don't care if your gay, I however do care if you come out with a guy you don't like, like that, Mike's just not for you" I don't know why I'm getting so hung up on Re going out with Mike
"What's wrong with Mike? I didn't say I don't like him, I said I didn't love him" I can already see that Remus is going to try and justify his and Mike's 'relationship', but I'm not going to let him!
"If you're in love with this other guy, it's hardly a good idea to go out with someone else, it just wouldn't work" his lovely honey eyes have just lost their light, they now look dead and hollow, did I say something I really shouldn't have?
"What do you want me to tell the guy I'm in love with, who is so not into me because he's straight that I love him? Purely because YOU don't want me to go out with Mike who is gay?" his eyes are boring into mine the anger he is feeling clear in his body language and voice "Get a life Sirius, not all of us can get anyone we want, not all of us are as insanely perfectly beautiful as you" he said with pure venom before stalking up to the boy's dormitory. Ok being an idealist isn't always what people want to hear! But Re is gorgeous I don't know what he's talking about … he could turn any straight guy gay … really shouldn't be thinking about this he's my best friend, I'm just thinking this because I just found out he's gay. I think before heading out of the common room, with the purpose of wondering the school grounds lost in my thoughts.
