A/N: I really hope that no one has gotten a headache reading the first chapter. I'm sorry if you did. And I'm not sure if you know this, but this is (or will be) SLASH!
Disclaimer: Not mine, unfortunately. They be J.K.'s -sigh- I've invited them to tea, we're having a gay ol' time

"He can't be serious," said a stunned James as everyone turned back to their lunches.
"Fo esruoc ton," said Sirius. "I ma." Remus turned to the boy and hit his head.
"TAHW?!" exclaimed the battered boy.
"Now is not a time for jokes," answered Remus. James and Peter were laughing in the background; Sirius turned to them and stuck out his tongue. Remus sat down at the table and returned to his own lunch.
"What are you going to do about classes, Siri?" asked Peter.
Before Sirius could open his mouth, Remus answered for him. "He's going to stay silent."
Sirius was going to open his mouth to argue, but James beat him to the punch. "What happens if a teacher wants an answer from him?"
Sirius tried to answer, but was interrupted, again. "Remus will have to talk for him," suggested Peter.
"What? Why me?" cried Remus.
"Because," reasoned Peter, "You're the only one who can understand him."
James looked at Remus, "Why is that?"
"I…I…I don't know," stammered Remus.
James continued to stare at him with a smug look, "Maybe it's cuz you lo-,"
"You're still purple!" Remus interrupted quickly.
The other two boys looked at James and burst out laughing. They didn't notice it before because they were too caught up in the conversation.
"Yeah, well purple is the color of royalty," stated James. "That means I am now, drum roll please, King James!" He was now standing with his hands on his hips looking up to the ceiling.
"Erom ekil Ecnirp Semaj," Sirius stood on his seat and put an empty bowl on his head. "I ma eht gnik!"
They all laughed at his theatrics, and Remus told James what Sirius had said.
"You're not the king, I AM!"
"Well you both look ridiculous," Remus said through giggles. "You're hair is still orange and your ear is much bigger than it should be."
"Well you're not much better," retorted James sitting back in his seat. Sirius and Peter both busted out laughing.
"Maybe you guys should change back," offered Peter.
Remus and James both tried to reverse the spell but it didn't work.
"That can't be good," said Peter trying to cover up his laughing.
Remus rolled his eyes and looked at Sirius. "Maybe you can give it a try?"
"Erus," he said. He said the spell to reverse it, and it worked. To an extent, the boys' skin was still tinted a pale purple but their hair and faces were back to normal.
When lunch was done they made their way to their next class. Potions with the Slytherins.
--
When they entered the dungeon they saw Snape, who looked back to normal.
"Woh did eh od taht?" cried Sirius.
"I don't know," answered Remus. He walked over to Snape and asked.
"It wasn't that hard," he answered smugly. "I just resized my chin and dyed my hair back to normal."
"But how did you change back your skin?"
Snape looked at his tinted face and smiled an evil smile, "I'll tell you later." He went and sat in his seat. Remus raised an eyebrow and went to his.
He felt a tap on his shoulder and turned around to face Sirius. "Yeah?"
"Tahw erew uoy gniklat tuoba?" he asked.
"Don't worry about it, Siri"
"Now class," said Professor Slughorn, "You will be working in groups of two today, and I will be picking your partners. It's an easy potion, so it shouldn't take you more than an hour. Now, when I call your name get with your partner. Snape and Crabbe. Malfoy and Goyle. Potter and Lupin. Pettigrew and Black. Sand-."
"Professor," interrupted Remus.
Slughorn looked up from the list he was reading and looked at Remus. "Yes, Mr. Lupin?"
"Since Sirius can't talk correctly, maybe I should be his partner."
Slughorn looked at Sirius, "Can you understand me?" Sirius nodded. "Can you read?" Sirius nodded again. Slughorn returned to addressing Remus. "I don't see a reason why Mr. Black and Mr. Pettigrew cannot be partners."
"But-,"
"No," said Slughorn. "Now go sit with Mr. Potter. Where was I? Oh, yes. Sanders and Billows…"
Remus and Sirius switched spots and James leaned over to whisper, "Do you think it's going to be that bad?"
"Hopefully, the potion will be as easy as Prof. Slughorn says," Remus showed James his crossed fingers.
--
-BOOM-
"Timmad! I dias esiwkcolc! ESIWKCOLC!"
Remus and James looked up from the almost finished potion to see Sirius and Peter covered in hot pink goo. Prof. Slughorn told them to clean up their mess and to write an essay due tomorrow.
"Taerg," scowled Sirius.
Peter started to clean up and mumbled an apology.
"Be nice," whispered Remus from behind him. Sirius turned toward him and mouthed something, and Remus just scowled back.
James had been watching the entire thing, "What'd he say?"
"…Nothing," replied Remus.
"So," he started conversationally, "How long have you liked Sirius?"
Remus' head shot up and he looked at his friend with wide eyes. "Wh-what are you talking a-about?"
"Oh come on. A Hufflepuff could tell you got the hots 'Hogwart's Heartthrob'."
"No they couldn't. I mean- No I don't."
"Ha! I knew it!" shouted James in triumph. "So…How long?"
"Just…since the beginning of this year," he looked down at the table with a slight blush.
They finished their potion and bottled it up. "Are you going to tell him?"
Remus shook his head, "Nope, never."
Sirius and Peter came over to them as they were packing up their things. "Tahw erew uoy syug gniklat tuoba?"
"Oh, just about Remus' love life," James said with a smile. "He's got a crush on someone." Remus quickly turned to him and glared.
"If you tell them who it is, I can promise you that you will never ever have children. Got it?"
James nodded his head with wide eyes. "Good," said a cheery Remus.
They left the dungeons and were on their way to Gryffindor Tower when Remus saw Snape.
"I'll catch you guys later, ok?" The others watched him jog off towards the Slytherin.
"S'erehw eh gniog?" asked Sirius. James just shrugged his shoulders and continued his way, with Peter tailing him the entire time. Sirius stayed behind to watch the slimey-git.
--
Sirius followed the pair to the library, hiding the entire way. They made their way to a secluded corner, talking in whispers the entire time. 'What are they talking about?' He saw Remus laugh at something he said. 'He made Remus laugh! He's not allowed to make him laugh.'
He hurried over to the pair yelling, "SUMER!" and glomped him.
"Sirius? What are you doing here?" asked Remus, giving an apologetic look to Snape.
"I dessim uoy. Dna I deen pleh htiw ym krowemoh. Pleh em, esaelp?"
"What did he say?" asked Snape.
"He wants me to help him with his homework. We'll talk later, okay?"
Snape agreed and left the library. "So, what did you really want?" Remus gave him a look.
"I deen pleh htiw krowemoh, yllaer."
"Sure you do." Remus stood up and they headed out of the library.
"Os, ohw od uoy evah a hsurc no?"
Remus shot a quick look at him before answering. His friends already knew he was gay so he didn't have to worry about that. 'Maybe I should tell him.' Before Remus could make up his mind, Sirius asked him a question.
"Dluoc uoy ta tsael evig em a elpuoc fo stnih?"
"Sure," He started to count his fingers. "He's in our year, he makes me laugh, I talk to him a lot, and…um…he's got black hair? How's that?"
"Doog," he said trying to hide his disappointment. 'He's in our year. He makes him laugh. They talk a lot. And he's got black hair. Who does that sound like?' He thought in silence when it hit him. 'He likes Snivelus!'

According to urbandictiony(dot)com- to glomp: "it is the action of one person lovingly (and dramatically) attacking another with a hug."
A/N 2: I figured that in Sirius' head the words sound right. So I decided to write them the correct way. I'll post chapter 3 when I get at least 10 reviews for this chapter. I know, I'm e-vile. Bwahahaha -cough- -choke- I'm okay. :3
