Lumos ⤳ sirius black

Chapter 73, Problematic.

*Lucys POV*

As the war kept growing darker each day, tensions grew higher. Now everywhere we went with Moony, there was a tension in between Sirius and Remus.

And of course they denied anything about it, or just dismissed my thoughts.

"Don't you think there's something going on?" I asked Lily as we met up for tea at my house. "There's definitely tension but I can't place my finger on why." She said.

We thought about it until I suggested something, "Do y'think that maybe Sirius thinks that Remus is the traitor?"

"No! Of course not! The two are basically brothers, they wouldn't betray each other! Wouldn't they?" Lily asked. "I really hope not."

"Hey, Si?" I asked him one late afternoon.

"Yeah Lu?" He asked in a sleepy tone.

I hated the nickname, made me sound like an eighty year old maid.

I sighed which placed a tired smirk in his face, "Anyways, I've er, I've noticed the, the uh," I stopped for a second and said, "You know what, never mind."

"No, come on you can tell me about it."

"Fine, is everything alright with Remus?"

"It's nothing Lucy."

"I never asked you if there was something, I asked if everything was alright."

He realized his mistake, "I just....it's not that."

"Mhm."

"Lemme take your mind off it, love."

Once again, like always, the Order meetings were a mess. Alice and Frank were now staying closer to us, Lily and I were now contacting Molly Weasley more, and things were ultimately changing.

There was now an internal terror placed in everyone, and even the most optimistic were unable to be happy.

"Sirius you are NOT punk rock!" I told him, "Do y'think that a Black doggo is punk rock!?"

"Hey! And to answer your question, yes I think so."

"Sirius!" I said laughing, "It is not, okay?"

"No, not okay, I need my wife to be by my side when I need to be punk rock!"

And then the doorbell rang, "Someone's at the door." He said.

"Saved by the bell Padfoot." I said making him crack a grin.

"Hi-" I started to say but Prongs just came in and bellowed of how bad of a day today was.

"Ok, what exactly happened?"

"I think she knows." He said quietly.

"Wait, which secret?" Padfoot asked.

"Both." He mumbled.

"PRONGS!!" We both yelled at him, "I know! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!"

"You've kept this secret for-what?- 8 years? 9 years? And you couldn't keep on going?!" Pads scolded him.

I stayed quiet for a second.

"What about Moony? Have you told him?"

"Well, not exactly. He's in some order business, undercover I mean."

Sirius posture changed, and I eyed him.

"Yeah.. well you've got to tell him as soon as you can."

"I know, I know."

He stayed for the rest of the day while I had to shower because I felt tingly in a way.

I got out of the shower humming to myself when I heard Prongs and Padfoot scream bloody murder.

"What's going on?" I yelled.

"SPIDER!!!!" They both replied.

"You idiots! You have magic! Or just squash it with a shoe!"

"Spider!!"

"Ugh fine, I'll get it." And I easily just killed it throwing a shoe at it.

"It's nothing you see?" I told them.

"Uh uh."

"Sure."

I rolled my eyes while Sirius followed after me, leaving James alone.

"Hey Love." He said, "Did I really miss you showering?"

"Guess you did."

"Maybe I could make it up to you."

Sirius planted kisses up and down my neck.

"Si, James is just out there."

"Eh, we'll just make sure to keep it down."

"Sirius!"

"Ok, ok, but as soon as he leaves!"

"Sirius!"
