Sirius
Ever since third year, we've planned to get a flat together.
I don't think any of us ever really thought about life after Hogwarts before that.
Well - we'd thought about it, of course. But not as something that would happen to us.
That June, we finally realized.
I think Prongs figured it out first. We were in the dorm one night, not long before the summer hols. He made a comment about Hogwarts already being almost half over. He sounded surprised, like it had only just occurred to him.
All of a sudden it felt horribly real. The first half had passed in the blink of an eye; it stood to reason that the next would too. Before we knew it, we'd be graduates. And then what? Back to my family? Hell no, not if I could help it. Hogwarts had been a dream; I didn't intend to lose it.
By the time we fell asleep, it'd been decided - the Marauders were meant to last forever. We weren't going to let graduation get in the way of that. We weren't going to let anything get in the way of that.
But now…
Prongs has been obsessed with Evans since fifth year.
It made me nervous, at first. I think he'd do anything for her. I think he might leave us, if that's what it took to get her attention.
She showed him nothing but contempt. As the months went by, my worries faded. Prongs was still ours. The situation seemed stable.
And for two years, it was.
But last summer, I guess she had a change of heart. By October, they were dating.
This whole year, I've been on edge, just waiting for the day we lose him.
Today it finally came.
