Sirius Blacks point of view:

"Thank you for yesterday, and thanks for letting me stay." I leaned against his doorframe, the cool air brushing against me back.
"I'll see you on Wednesday Father."

Father Lupin's face lit up, "I'm glad. Try not to get into too much trouble." He played. He was joking but we both knew it was almost a warning. "I might bring some biscuits as well on Wednesday." He raised his eyebrows as if this this was riveting news.

"Well I suppose I'll have to come then." I laughed, "Genuinely thank you, see you later." I waved goodbye and I was off, walking back down the road to Reggies. Father Lupin had given me some bandages and told me when to change them and everything.

Walking down the chilly mid day streets of London really sobered me up, and it really made me think. I need to stop obsessing over Father Lupin, I have a girlfriend to get back. Oh let's be truthful, she won't take me back will she?

Time skip brought to you by the concept of an afterlife.
~;~;~;~

When I arrived back at Reggies he was waiting for me at the door, "What on earth happened to your head?" He narrowed his eyes.

"Fell over into some glass." I shrugged. Maybe if I tried to play it off cool he would leave me be.

He sighed and folded his arms, "They've invited us to an anniversary dinner on the seventeenth." Reggie tensed at his own words.

"Mum and Dad?" I asked and Reggie nodded. I was taken aback, "me included?" They hadn't wanted to see me since the last incident."

"Yep. And they want Father Lupin there as well. They want to see who's been dealing with their sons alcoholism." Reggie explained, bringing me inside his house.

"I'm not going anywhere if they're going to be there!" I exclaimed, slamming the door behind me.

Reggie sat down, "I know but it might be good. Some things might get worked out, besides Father Lupin will understand your situation a touch more."

"I'm not going and that's final." I gritted my teeth.

"They're paying for dinner." Reggie blurted out.

I caved, "Fine I'll go then, I'll tell Father Lupin about it next Wednesday." I sat on the arm of his sofa.

We sat in silence for a moment too long. My mind went crazy, was I going to be humiliated and belittled by my own family in front of Father Lupin? Are they going to mention things that I'd rather not let him hear. I didn't know.

"Do you want to talk to me about anything?" Reggie asked, trying to out on a face of comfort. He was very clearly not good at this.

I shook my head, "I'd rather not."

Later that evening I (very bravely) decided to message Father Lupin.

Father Lupin

Hey

Hello, are you alright? Get home safe?

Yeah and yeah just a bit
bored.

Hmmm. Not sure I'm the best cure for boredom .

Sure you are your funny

Am I really?

Not on purpose I suppose

See

You're nice though

I think that's the standard for most people

You'd be surprised
So how did confession go today

Bit boring, only two people came in and they weren't all that interesting.

Do you think I could ever come to confession
I'm not religious

You don't have to be, it could be good for you to get things off your chest, but it will be me in there you know?

Yeah, that's why I would want to go (so I can recreate the fleabag scene with you)

Sirius!
Disgusting?

😂
But you are the stereotypical hot priest, I wonder what people get up to in those confessionals.

Don't sexualise my job! 😭

Cant help it
Your non sexual job is someone really sexual all at once.
There are sexy priest Halloween costumes for a reason

...

How much would I have to pay you for you to wear one of those?

You are never getting me to wear one of those, no matter the price.

Come on... how much?!?!?!?

Maybe I'll consider it when you're one month sober :)

Awww :(
No fun.

You know what, if you get one month sober I'll wear a sexy priest costume for you 😭 God what is my life. But you have to buy the costume!

You have just given me ultimate power, I could get the worst, most naughtiest costume ever!

And I can guarantee you will 😭
Well do that in my house though, not the church.

Aww, you don't want a cool church backdrop for your sexy priest photo shoot.

We are not taking photos of this awful even to be 😭

To be. It was nice that he had faith that I could make it one month sober.

Alright good night, I don't want to have to picture myself in a sexy priest costume anymore.

Good night my sexy priest ❤️

And then I changed his contact name in my phone to 'My sexy priest'. Let's hope he never find out.
