Author's Note: I might end up putting this chapter and chapter three togetherm because chapter three was so short. But this one's pretty long …gah! I don't know.

There's a little bit of Lily/James in this chapter too.

Warnings: Slash (well duh, it's Remus/ Sirius) nothing too graphic, this is my OTP, so please don't hate on the pairings in reviews and what not. (I might have to come over there and kung fu yo ass!)

Disclaimer: I do not, and probably never will own Sirius, Remus, or any other Marauder. Sadly. Very very extremely sadly.

CHAPTER FOUR: THE COUPLE OF THE CENTURY

The portrait hole swung open just as Remus was recovering, to reveal none other than…

"'Lo Remus!" Sirius grinned as he sauntered over, he took a seat on the recently vacated arm of Remus's chair, "Éclair for your thoughts?"

Remus didn't trust himself to look into Sirius's eyes, so he settled for the hand holding the éclair.

Grabbing it he said, "Thanks Pads, my favorite, what exactly do you want?"

Sirius tried to simultaneously beam and look hurt, an attempt that failed miserably, "What makes you think I want anything? Maybe I was just being nice and bringing my dear friend Moony a chocolate éclair, fresh out of the oven."

"How could I have doubted you?" Remus rolled his eyes, "Are you sure you don't have some Charms paper you need help writing?" He asked skeptically.

"Well actually…" Sirius trailed off hopefully, "But you're getting me off topic! Meh! What I REALLY wanted to see you about is this!" He flourished James' invisibility cloak proudly.

Remus raised his eyebrow, "Very impressive Sirius. Of course it would be more impressive if I hadn't seen it a million times already."

"No!" Sirius said, exasperated, as if anyone should've figured out what so fascinating about James' cloak, "Prongs is preparing to ask out carrot-top! Not only is this the event we've been waiting for, for the last century, and I refuse to miss it, but it will be a good learning experience for you," He grinned like the Cheshire cat.

Before Remus had time to protest, he was being dragged out of the common room and away from his nice, snuggly chair, into the cold stone hallway. He grumbled the whole way.

"Oh quit you're whinging! Might I remind you that we're about to view the proposal of the CENTURY?" Sirius cast the cloak over his and Remus's shoulders.

Remus couldn't help but notice the fresh, clean, unmistakably Sirius smell emanating from his best friend. Nor could he help feeling the warmth on his left side that was the result of being squished against Sirius. There was a time when all four of the marauders (when Pete was in rat form) could fit in the cloak but now, as two sixteen-year-old guys it was a tight fit. And so were Remus's pants.

"Shh! Here they come!" Sirius said unnecessarily as he pushed Remus under the stairs across the hall. It was a squeeze but they fit.

The two boys watched their best friend approach with baited breaths. Lily walked beside him looking a radiant as ever.

"Lucky sod," Sirius muttered; Remus elbowed him in the ribs to get him to shut up. He pointed at the couple.

Lily began to speak, "Did you want to ask me something James?"

It looked as if, for the first time in his life, James Potter was unsure of himself. He looked at his shoes and then peered up through his bangs at the bombshell redhead in front of him and gulped.

"This is it," Remus thought silently, "he's actually going to do it."

Looking Lily full in the face, James began to speak, "Lily Evans, I'm asking you for real now, you are the smartest, most beautiful, funniest girl I've ever laid eyes on, will you go out with me?"

Lily eyes widened ("Oh, as if she didn't see that coming," Sirius snorted.) James blinked and looked back at her nervously. Then she smiled, "James Potter, I would love to be your girlfriend."

James fairly leapt into the air with joy. He grabbed her around the waste and swung her around, "I LOVE THIS WOMAN!" He shouted.

"Yep. James and his flamboyant self are back," Remus grinned.

James and Lily were staring into each other's eyes; he'd stopped celebrating and was completely focused on his girlfriend. Their lips met in the middle, it was like a kiss from a movie, Remus sighed. He really was a hopeless romantic.

He turned his head only to come face to face with Sirius, Sirius with his beautiful eyes, gorgeous hair, and unnaturally long eyelashes. He fair melted, "You have gorgeous eyes Padfoot," He breathed, before he knew what he was saying.

Sirius smiled almost timidly, "Though not as amazing as yours."

Before either of them quite knew what was happening the three-inch gap between them closed. Remus's ears roared, he felt like he was floating, he never wanted the kiss to end. A canine growl escaped from the back of his throat as he deepened the kiss. He couldn't keep his hands off of Sirius's legs, his arms, his waist, his back. Sirius had tangled one hand into Remus's hair and the other was skimming over his arse and lower back. Everything was hazy and vivid at the same time. It reminded him of when they'd all tried LSD last year, but a thousand times better. He never wanted it to end. But it did.

The two boys sprang apart as they felt the cloak being pulled of their shoulders, they looked up at the one who'd caught them guiltily.

"Boys, boys," James said condescendingly, "You forget that I am the infamous owner of The Cloak and have honed my spying skills to perfection, you must be silent as the fog to go unnoticed my me! But, I forgive you, because today I am the happiest man in the world! Lily is mine! Let's eat!" He offered a hand to each of them and yanked them up.

"Peter was so right, James really is the most oblivious person in this school," Remus though, shaking his head ruefully…and in doing so caught Sirius's gaze with his own, "Oh shit!" was all he could think of.
