"Do you ever remember being that small?" Sirius asked while watching the first years being sorted.

"No" was the collective response from all around the 7th years.

"I do remember moony's shaved head" I tease Remus while thinking about it. He groans and grips the table waiting impatiently for the feast to begin.

Werewolves need sustenance.

Sirius barks a laugh and hugs into Remus' side while ruffling his hair. "I'm glad it's long I love his curls."

I just want someone to love. Why do I not feel enough?

"Oi James" Lily calls after what feels like minutes speaks. "Yea?" I reply while shaking my head from the thoughts that keep sticking like glue. "Foods here, eat ya?" She gives me a small smile and dishes her plate. It does look good, she's probably right, eat.

Looking up to dish my plate as well I make eye contact with icy grey eyes and a perfect styled set of curls, nodding with a soft smile like always I continue with dinner, not thinking much about the grey eyes.

I like to keep a strict schedule at Hogwarts. Especially as Head boy and Gryffindor  quidditch team captain.

Get up around 6 in the morning, do 10 pushups go on a jog around the black lake, take a shower, wake up Sirius and let Remus wake Peter because he sleeps like the dead. And finally go down to breakfast with the boys.

I like to keep it even if classes don't start for a couple days to adjust. It gets me on schedule so I'm not late for when classes start.

This morning shouldn't be any different except that breakfast will start a little later today because it's a Saturday, and all night I only dreamed of grey eyes.

It's like they swim in the back of his head and every time his brain slows even a little bit there they are, he's thinking about them again.

He's pretty sure that those beautiful grey eyes belong to Regulus black but he's not entirely sure. Yes he knows of regulus but he pretty much stays away from him. Sirius has made it clear he doesn't want anything to do with regulus because of his traumatic family. And I understand and stay away, so what's the problem?

He walks over to Sirius bunk and pulls the hangings back and pats him on the back. "It's morning pads, your crown awaits at the breakfast table my dear king."  He blinks his eyes open and smiles.

"Why thank you, good sir I shall get my crown in no less then an hour." He smiles and turns to moony whose in his bunk as well, while I walk away I hear him murmuring to him softly.

I love their love.

Taking a shower and getting dressed, letting my hair dry in it's usually mop while grabbing my glasses and heading to the common room to see if the girls are up yet.

"Morning Mary" I say while noticing she's reading a book as I sit next to her.
"Morning." she reply's focused on her book.
I just let her read and sit in the welcomed silence, just watching the soft fire and flurry of first and second years.

After breakfast me and Sirius fly for a bit but he quits to join Remus in the stands so we just head back to the dorm and get started on school work.

——————
Classes start on Monday, I'm taking all the same classes as Sirius this year just like last while Moony and Pete have Runes, Herbology and care of magical creatures, as extra classes.

Classe are going fine to me but sometimes things just don't make sense, so moony is a great help when we go to the library, so is Lily she's very smart. Sometimes Pandora Lovegood helps me with Arithmancy. She's a Ravenclaw sixth year whose very smart and kind.

Classes go by quickly and it's Friday already therefore quidditch try outs.

"Okay! So we need a beater and a seeker!" I call while watching the team line up. I'm the team chaser I'm pretty much the best ever chaser, or that's what everyone says but I don't think I'm actually that great.

try outs actually go by smoothly this year, no broken toes or faces no crashes, it's like the universe is smiling today. Hope it stays that way.

Showers with the team and heads to the dorm where the boys are after watching try outs.

"What do you think pads? Think we got a shot this year?" I say while sitting on my bed.

He looks tense, why is he tense? Sirius only looks like that when somethings wrong with his family, that's how he used to look all the time.

"Maybe I mean the beater looks decent enough.  The seekers good too" he says while sitting with Remus.

"Hey is something wrong?" I can't help but feel there is. But all he does is shrug.
"Talked to Reg today..." he trails off like he doesn't know what to say.
"Okay?" I tilt my head waiting for him to continue, Peter apparently went to get snacks so it's just us three.
"He is scared of tomorrow, it's his birthday, he'll be presenting, they got a special room for him to do so, yea know?, but if he's okay he'll just go to classes" as in if he's beta he'll just go to classes because his body won't do anything drastic.

"Why is he afraid? I mean yea it's uncertain but afraid?" Maybe their parents will be mad but it's not like they can change Biology.
"He's afraid of presenting omega, I was too last year but it was different because I didn't live with them. They said if we present omega that we would be sold to the highest well pure alpha. That could be our uncle for fucks sake." He looks down and Remus takes his hand. 

Sell him? This isn't the seventeen hundreds how could they do something like that?  He's their son.

Sirius shivers. "He always always wanted to make them proud. He'll be devastated if he presents anything but alpha."

"That's messed up. I get why your worried, I would be too. I'm sorry pads" I say softly.
He shrugs again and moves into Remus more.

Pete makes it back with the snacks and we dig in and go off to bed. Although Regulus black will be tugging at me all night long.
