Remus and Peter had gone to bed, but James and Sirius stayed up to talk.
"So, Sirius. Why are you so 'we need to talk!'" James said.
Sirius pause a bit through out the sentence. "It's um about Remus… "
"What's going on?"
"Well… I sorta kinda think I have a crush on him…"
James just laughed. Sirius looked so hurt, "W-why are you laughing?"
"Well I find it funny that you are finally coming out with your crush!"
"B b-bbb-but how did y-you know about it?"
James just laughed even more. "Dude," He managed to get out after a couple of long gasping breathes from laughing too much, "I am your best friend! Of course I would notice if you were staring at a certain someone, like, all the time."
Sirius sat there with his hands folded in his lap, looking around the room to not seem to engaged in the conversation. "Was it obvious or something?"
"No, not obvious, unless you are me. I am with you guys every second of the day, so I always know what goes on. I noticed all the staring on the train, the cheering for him when he got into Gryffindor, and you guys are closer than hottie and greasy."
"Do you think the others know?"
James reassured him, "No, and besides, I don't doubt for a second that Peter will support you completely."
"But, whatt do you think Remus is going to say?"
James was silent for a moment. "I don't know. It could play out many different ways."
"Please don't tell him…"
"I won't."
"Its just, we are best friends, and it could tear this whole group apart, and I still have six years with him. Six long years of good friendship, and if anything is going to happen, it will happen at the right moment. Right?"
"No one is going to say anything. You will know when and if the time is right." James said with no hint of laughter in his voice.
