I miss sleep.

I miss Evanna more but oh merlin do I miss sleep. It hasn't been that long since she passed. Amos stopped crying but he's ghost of what he used to be. Cedric however, that boy loves to scream.

James stopped sleeping over since the first two days of Cedric coming home. He's the lightest sleeper I've ever met and I prefer not to be a zombie. Remus and Peter have also been unaccounted for in person but they owl a lot.

Sirius and I deserve money. What the routine has been for the past month is go to bed, wake up to Cedric at 2. Go to the couch with one of us rocking him while the other sings. When Cedric stops crying we put him in his cradle then pass out on top of each other on his floor.

Yes- Amos has tripped over the two of us.

And yes- the longest the three of us have slept is 4 hours in one sitting. But I can't say it isn't interesting. Sirius has been disowned for a while now so he's in the clear and Amos was deceased the moment Cedric was conceived before marriage. So getting the howler saying that our parents are simply "so disappointed we can't even see your ugly, shameful, traitorous face that we are moving to our French residence permanently."

Amos was the happiest he'd been in a while. But that howler ending with, "Cordelia, heed my directions before you are condemned to uselessness permanently" wasn't exactly helpful. Thank Merlin my roommate and brother didn't ask.

We or more likely, I, still must wear the dress mum sends and attend the Malfoy ball but at least I have James. I swear sometimes he keeps me going. He's owled in so many sweaters he wore so that I don't have nightmares, I wish they'd help but they aren't him.

This particular morning, I woke up to Cedric laughing. What the fuck kind of witchcraft is this? Amos is passed out in his room and Sirius' legs are tangled in my hair. I can't quite open my eyes but Cedric is laughing. I didn't know he could do that yet.

"Ranger." I heard Sirius murmur, "What did you do?" Sirius asked. "Shit, Padfoot. I didn't shit." I answered in a growl of my morning voice. My eyes still shut. Sirius moved ever so slightly and kicked me in the face. "Ow, bullocks." I said and put my hand to my cheek.

"Sorry." Sirius said and I finally opened my eyes. I saw James sitting against the cradle. He sat with his knees up and using them to support Cedric. James had Cedric's hands gripping his two index fingers tightly and was moving his hands in a pattern.

As someone who has seen Prongs; in the shower, covered in sweat, playing quidditch, in a suit, in bed, asleep, without glasses, in a uniform, and working out. He looked hottest right now. And I shouldn't feel this turned on so early in morning. Well it makes sense because we haven't really had the chance to shag since Ced has been born.

"Morning, Lov- Ranger." James said when he noticed my eyes open. "Good morning, Jamesie." I said and sat up. "Sirius get your flat ass up." I said and smacked his butt. He moaned. "Diana it is too early to get kinky with me- oh hello James." Sirius said and sat up as well.

"Actually no. It isn't a good morning. I'm going to my room and sleeping. Good night." Sirius said popping his neck dramatically then walking out. When he was out of slight I sat next to James. I kissed his cheek and he smiled. "How are you, love?" He asked as he made faces to Cedric before moving Cedric in a rocking position.

"Tired but every happy to see you." I said and kissed his neck. Cedric began to fall asleep and I kissed James' neck more. When Cedric was completely asleep James put him in his cradle and I stood up. As he turned around I put my hands around his neck and pulled him in for a kiss.

"Mmm... Diana... Darling-" he said and tried to pull away. He put his hands around my waist and pushed me away slightly. "Love, what's going on this morning." He said questioning my actions. "I miss you, your hot- you looked very hot with Cedric, and I- we haven't shagged in a month." I said in a rush and he smirked.

"Love, are you horny?" He asked in a chuckle. "Merlin, do you really have to ask, James?" I said in a whiney voice and he laughed. "No one is awake and we can very easily lock and charm my bedroom." I said and he kept laughing. "You want to shag me, right now." James asked. I let go of him completely and walked out of Cedric's room.

I made my way to my room and could hear James behind me. I walked next to my bed and James stood in the door way. His had his arm bent and leaned against it. I took of my flannel and it left me in my bra and some shorts.

I then pulled my shorts off and James stepped forward, locking my door and crossing his arms. "Diana what-" and then I cut him off as I tried to undo my bra. "Either you fuck me or I do it myself in front of you." I said and through my bra to the floor. That certainly caught his attention.

"I- Merlin. Maybe I should stop visiting you more often." He said and walked towards me taking his shirt off. He put a hand around my neck and pulled me in for a passionate kiss. His other hand travelled down to my underwear as he slid a finger in them. "You're soaking, darling. Do I make you that desperate?" He asked me.

I nodded and he pushed me down on to the bed. He uttered the contraception charm and tossed his wand to side, peppering kisses on my neck. He moved my legs around his waist. "James mmm sir-r. The ch-charm." I said and he threw my panties on the ground and slid in. "Did you just call me sir?" He asked. "Before I could respond he said, "Do it again." And then he reached for his wand and stating, "Muffilato."

As I adjusted to his size he flipped us so that I was on top of him and he moved his hands from my waist. "You wanted this so badly? Then use me" James said. "Sir-" I mumbled and he jerked his hips up, burring deeper inside me. "No. You wanted me? Take me." He said and as I looked into his hazel green eyes they were darkened with lust.

I rocked myself in a front and back motion. I was clenching tight around him and he lightly groaned. I moved myself in more an up and down motion as I grew closer to my high and he grabbed onto my hips. Rocking me faster against him as we both grew closer to our climaxes.

When mine finally came I panted against him as I collapsed on his chest. Both of us coated in sweat. "Fuck that was good." I said and he smiled. "Even better for me, I didn't have to do any work." James said in a chuckle before we both laughed.
