I Hope you are all enjoying this story. I am finding this story a lot more easier to write than 'Sirius what are you doing in Forks' I'm also thinking about writing a time turner accident fic and a Doctor Who and Harry Potter crossover fic. I would like any suggestions on who should be travelling and to what time period. If you have any good suggestions for the time turner fic then will you please review with your suggestions. Also review if you are enjoying this story. Thanks for the reviews story alerts and favourite stories. By the way guys there is going to be hints of male/male slash. Enjoy.
Chapter 6:Answers and a lot more questions
Remus' Pov
Both Lily and James were looking at me. Lily's glare was unforgiving. I knew what she wanted to ask. James suddenly cleared his throat.
"Remus, why did you stop Harry from fighting that boggart?" James looked at me puzzled.
"I thought that when Harry would fight the boggart it would turn into Lord Voldemort. I didn't want to scare the other students. Most of the students would panic." I suddenly noticed that James had wrapped his arm around Lily. She was still shaken and silent tears fell down her cheeks.
"Reme, it looked like the boggart was turning into a dementor. When has my baby been near a dementor?" She asked angrily. Her emerald green eyes were sparkling.
"A dementor searched the Hogwarts Express for Sirius Black," I suddenly started crying, my voice caught in my throat. I took a deep breath. "I happened to be in the same compartment as Harry. The full moon was the night before and I slept as the journey continued. I suddenly felt cold and I could suddenly see foggy images. I heard my screams from the night I was bitten. I awoke and suddenly noticed that Harry had fallen from his seat. I told the dementor that Black was not in the compartment but it would not leave. I sent out a patronus and the dementor left. Harry heard Lily screaming." James saw me crying.
"Thank you, for saving my son's life." He hugged me tightly.
I turned my back to them trying to keep my breathing steady. James knew why I was so upset. If anyone mentioned Black I would end up crying or getting angry. When we were at Hogwarts we spent so much time together. I knew I was gay from the age of 14. It had taken Sirius a lot longer to realise that he was falling in love with me. It wasn't until the accident that Sirius realised he was bisexual and deeply in love. The night after the accident, Sirius showed up at the hospital wing with a bouquet of red roses. He sat beside me, apologised and explained why he nearly killed Snape. Sirius believed that Snape had a hunch about what I was. He wanted to scare him away. However, he had revealed my secret to the one person I never wanted to know. I had asked Sirius to leave but he refused. I remember seeing tears fall down his cheeks. His eyes were going puffy. He confessed that he loved me and begged for my forgiveness. It took me six months to forgive him. I now wished I hadn't. My heart was still broken in pieces from when he betrayed James and Lily. I could never forgive myself for falling in love with Sirius Black. I needed to get out of this office and away from Prongs and Lily.
"You two can stay here for tonight."
"Where are you going, Moony?" James asked.
"Somewhere where I can think and forget." I turned and left the office.
Sirius' Pov
I am so hungry. Crookshanks had left to find the rat. Therefore I was left alone. I was depressed. Ever since I escaped from Azkaban I had only seen Harry. I desperately wanted to see Remus and beg him for forgiveness. I couldn't believe that I considered Remus to be the traitor. After we left Hogwarts we didn't see each other as much as we would have wanted. Dumbledore sent us on missions regularly. When Remus returned from these, he would often crawl straight into bed and sleep. These missions and his transformations left him constantly tired and in a bad mood. We started drifting apart and became suspicious of each other. I hated that.
I suddenly heard the sound of footsteps. Someone was climbing upstairs. Only Lily knew I was here. I quickly transformed into a black dog. I was surprised to see that it wasn't Lily. It was a man that walked into the room. He was tall with tawny hair. There were gray streaks in it. There were also lines on his face. It was his eyes that kept my attention. They were amber. It looked like this man had been crying recently. I walked towards him. His eyes flashed dangerously. He looked revolted at the sight at me.
"What are you doing here, Black, trying to hide away from the dementors." He stated venomously. He suddenly started crying. I suddenly changed back to human and embraced him. He wrestled me off him. "Leave me alone you traitor." I froze. He looked so hurt. I was hurting him. I heard him sob louder. He suddenly crawled into the dusty four-poster bed that was in the centre of the dark room. I had recognised the man as soon as he entered. It was Remus. I crawled into bed with Remus. He squirmed away from me.
"Moony, we need to talk." Remus ignored me. He suddenly shivered. I moved towards him and hugged him tightly before he could wrestle free. "I'm so sorry. I should have told you about the change of plan."
"What change of plan?" he asked.
"I convinced James and Lily to swap secret keeper. I thought that Voldemort would never suspect that I was not the secret keeper. Peter was the secret keeper. On the night James and Lily died, I went to check on Peter. There was no evidence of a fight or struggle. I went to their house in Godric's Hollow. I saw their dead bodies. I had nightmares about it in Azkaban. I went after Peter to kill him but he escaped as a rat."
"Why didn't you, Lily or James tell me about the swap?"
"Because we believed that you were the spy." Lily answered.
"We were worried about you Remus so me and Lily decided to follow you, I hope you don't mind." James added. Oh my God!! James was alive as well. I couldn't help but smile. I then noticed that Remus was taking in my scent. He soon relaxed in my arms. I kissed the top of his head. He was nodding off. His grip on me was tightening, but I didn't mind.
"We will leave you two alone." James whispered suggestively.
Remus' Pov
When I awoke the next morning, I felt something in my arms. It was Sirius. I suddenly remembered the events of last night. Sirius was not the traitor. I had felt the best I had felt in 12 years this morning. My lover had slept in my arms and he was innocent. I shook Sirius awake.
"Sirius, wake up. I've got to ask you something."
"But, I'm still sleepy." he responded.
"Sirius, this is very important. Where is Wormtail?" I asked still shaking him.
"Well, he was in the Gryffindor third year boy's dormitory. However, he might have run away. You see I have found a way of communicating with a cat. I send it of to find Peter and bring him to me. So far Crookshanks has not been successful."
"Honey, I've got to go. Lessons will soon begin and I'm teaching first thing." I dragged him out of the bed and embraced him. He kissed me on the lips. I couldn't help but smile, even with Fred and George Weasley, the modern day equivalent of the Marauders, in my first lesson.
"Moony?"
"Yes, Padfoot?"
"It's the full moon tomorrow night. Do you want to spend it here with me?" He asked unsure of himself.
"Of course." I was looking forward to this full moon and the chance to spend more time with Sirius. I would help him prove his innocence but how. It was this that was in mind as I entered the castle.
I hope you enjoyed this. Please read and review. Remember if you do have any ideas for a time turner accident fic please review with those ideas. I might write a fanfiction for you.
