Sirius flung the door to the boy's dorm open and pranced in, slamming it shut behind him.
"Proooooooooongs. I have a brilliant idea for our next prank. You, me, Mrs. Norris and some…what the bloody hell?"
James stood in the centre of the room, a hairbrush in one hand, the other clenched over his heart. He was swaying slowly to the music that was pumping out from Marlene's old Muggle record player, totally oblivious to the fact that his best mate had just waltzed in on him.
Sirius watched in horror as the music started to build back to the chorus and James, opening his mouth wide, belted out;
"That I'm lost without your love! Life without you isn't worth the trouble of, I'm as helpless as a ship without a wheel…"
Sirius had thought that this scene couldn't possibly get any worse, but to his utmost disgust James unclenched the hand over his chest and gazed longingly at the picture of Lily bloody Evans that had been hiding in there.
With a flick of his wand Sirius Silenced the music and folded his arms over his chest. "What. The. Bloody. Hell?"
James spun around, face draining of all colour. "Padfoot!" He stammered, eyes darting around for an escape. "What are you doing?"
Sirius raised an eyebrow. "What am I doing? What are you doing? What the hell were you listening to you wanker? Where did you even get that rubbish from? And why in Merlin's name were you singing along to it?"
"Lil- Evans, she was bitch to me again and I came up here so I could calm down and not hex her…" James trailed off when he realised Sirius wasn't buying any of it. "What does it matter?" James snapped, trying a different tactic. "You're not my Mum; I can do whatever I want."
Sirius gazed at James, expression carefully blank. "Your manhood…is dead." He eventually said, shaking his head. "What kind of self respecting bloke moons around singing to Bread? I…I can't even look at you right now."
And with that Sirius spun on his heel and left the room.
James stood in the centre of the room, mortified that he'd been caught by the last (ok well the second last…if Lily had seen him doing that…) person he'd want to know. "Hang on!" James shouted suddenly, wrenching the door open and chasing after his mate. "How did you know that was Bread?"
