*1 week later*
*Yn's POV*
"Hey Sirius, heard alot about you and Regulus" said Spike. Sirius blushed a deep scarlet.
You gave Sirius a we'll-talk-about-this-later look.
Finally a week later and you and Sirius were alone.
James and Peter had detention for a prank that they had pulled on Filch, Spike was swimming in the black Lake, and you had a hunch Remus was planning something.
You and Sirius sat in the boys dormitory, the sun shining in.
"Sooooo why are we here" asked Sirius awkwardly.
"To discuss the topic of my cousin" you explained.
"What about Spike" asked Sirius.
"Why you're mesmerised by him" you prompted.
"I am not" said Sirius.
You gave him a look.
"Alright fine, maybe I am" sighed Sirius.
"You like him" you sung.
"Is that allowed" asked Sirius, he looked frightened.
"What do you mean" you asked.
"Is a guy allowed to like other guys" asked Sirius blushing.
"I can't see why not" you shrugged.
"And are two guys allowed to like, date and stuff" asked Sirius.
"Yes Sirius, I think so" you said.
"Ok" Sirius muttered, more to himself than you.
"Is there a word for boys who like other boys, boys like me" asked Sirius.
"Yes Sirius, Gay, or homosexual" you explained.
"And what about girls, can they like other girls" asked Sirius, seeming more confident.
"Yes, they're called Lesbians" you explained patiently. Sirius clearly needed a friend who could explain this sort of stuff to him.
"Are they allowed" asked Sirius.
"I think so, most people are ok with this stuff Sirius" you explained.
"And, can one person like guys and girls" asked Sirius.
"Yes, they are bisexual" you explained.
"Can a person be the opposite gender to the one people think they are" Sirius asked slowly.
"Yes, they absolutely can, people like that are transgender" you explained.
"What if a person doesn't feel like a guy or a girl" asked Sirius.
"Well, gender is more of a spectrum than two definite categories. Ok, so we have cisgender people, they are people, like me, who identify as the gender they were assigned at birth; male or female. Transgender people identify as either male or female, but they were assigned the other at birth. Then there's non-binary, people who are non-binary don't identify as exclusively male or female. Gender queer refers to people who's gender identify falls on the spectrum between male and female. Agender people don't have a gender at all. And then Gender fluid people don't have a locked in gender, it can change, they might be female for a while, then non-binary for a few days" you explained.
Sirius nodded slowly.
"Ok, but like, can a guy like wearing skirts, and nail polish but still be a guy" asked Sirius.
"Yes, girls can wear shorts so surely boys can wear skirts right" you said.
"Sirius, are you ok love, you seem really confused" You asked gently.
"I- I'm not sure, like I feel like, like" he struggled to explain.
"Like nothing fits" you guessed.
"Yes! It's like, I'm a guy but at the same time I'm not always boyish?" He questioned.
"Well I think you could be a femboy, a boy who definitely a boy but they like things considered feminine" you explained.
"That's it" he cried.
"Thankyou yn, you can't imagine how long I've been questioning these things" said Sirius, he bowled you over with a hug.
"It's all good Siri, glad I could help" you said grinning.
"One more thing, do I have to tell the others" asked Sirius.
"Not if you don't want to" you explained.
"I want to tell someone else" said Sirius.
"Try Marlene and Dorcas, I'm sure they'll understand" you suggested.
"Thanks" Sirius yelled as he sped out of the room.
Then a knock came at the door.
"Come in" you called.
"Crazy that Sirius is, nearly knocked me over sprinting to the common room" said Spike entering the room, water dripping from his Spikey h/c hair.
"He's excited about something" you said vaguely.
"Yo nn, can we talk about... something" asked Spike, nervously.
"Yeah Spike, what's up" you inquired.
"I'm gay" he half whispered, half shouted.
You shrugged.
"So you're... cool with this" asked Spike.
"Yeah, besides, what can I do to change you. You are who you are, and I love you unconditionally" you smiled.
"Thanks nn, you're the best" said Spike.
"Yo Spike, is that, pink nail polish" you asked spying his fingernails.
"Erm, I guess" mumbled Spike.
"Looks sick" you grinned.
"Cheers" said Spike grinning.
