How It Started

Coming Out

A/N Thanks to me being confident on monster and showing chapters one and two of this story to my art teacher this morning I might be put in creative writing...yay me.

Sirius' POV 

Everyone was anxious for the Sorting to finish and for Dumbledore to give his speech. Our attention was soon turned to Dumbledore as the Sorting finished and he stood, "Welcome back and welcome to our school, fellow first years. Firstly, I'd like to say the mistletoe on the Christmas holiday has been bewitched to not trap random people under it until they share a kiss-" everyone cheered at this. "But-" everyone groaned, "I have charmed them so that if they detect people who have feelings for each other it will trap them till they sort out their feelings and share a kiss. Secondly, the forest is out of bounds, hence the name, now, have just two words to say, tuck in." he finished and the gleaming golden plates filled with food, I watched as Remus piled mashed potatoes, steak and chips (as in fries for you people who don't understand) on his plate I chuckled which made him look at me.

"What?" he asked slightly confused and annoyed for this was the second time I chuckled when he had a lot of food.

"Nothing, Mooney," I chuckled turning to pile food on my plate I felt his knee brush mine as he moved and I blushed slightly. After dinner we walked back to the tower Remus was eating chocolate, like always, James was ruffling his hair, like he always did, and Peter was tripping over his robes as he pulled the sleeve on his left arm down further. I said the password as we reached the portrait, Amortentia, we walked in and walked to the boys dormitory, put on our pajamas and crawled into bed.

Remus' POV 

As I crawled into my four-poster I stole a glance at Sirius, he always slept with his shirt off except in the winter he had a shirt on. I fell asleep when I laid my head on the pillow. I awoke with a start a few minutes later from the nightmare I had, I got up and crawled into Sirius' bed, he told me I could sleep next to him whenever I had a nightmare. "Bad dream?" he asked startling me I nodded and curled up next to him. "Wanna talk about it?"'

"I had a dream I bit and scratched myself deep enough that it killed me," I lied getting closer to him as he was radiating so much heat off of him he chuckled and snaked his arm around my waist.

"If it hasn't happened yet it won't happen ever." he said pulling me closer I smiled and fell asleep again this time all the bad dreams were gone, it was just me and Sirius curled together as a kid, probably ours, jumped on the bed and laid beside us.

Sirius' POV 

"Get the hell up or you'll be late for breakfast!" James yelled ripping open the hangings on my bed. "Seriously?"

"We didn't do anything, Mooney had a bad dream," I said sitting up I placed a hand on his shoulder and shook him awake his arm was still dangling around my waist as he picked up his head.

"What?" he asked he had drool on his chin which was kinda cute,

"Get dressed." James said walking off, me and Remus put on our robes and walked miserably down to the Great Hall. We sat down and ate waiting for McGonagall to pass us our timetables, me and Remus had Herbology this morning, Transfiguration after lunch and then double Defense Against the Dark Arts. 

*After lessons still Sirius' POV*

I sat by the beech tree waiting for Remus, Peter, and James to come down. I watched as the Giant Squid broke the surface of the Lake with his tentacle and pull it back down he would occasionally add one or two more tentacles add make little ripples in the water, as if it were entertaining to him, which I could see being true as it was for me. I looked towards the castle to see James striding in front of Remus, who looked on the verge of a break-down, and Peter who was trying not to trip over his robes, as they got closer I could see a wide grin across James' face. "What's got you so happy?" I asked James as they sat around me,

"Evans said yes," he said leaning his head against the tree closing his eyes and still smiling broadly. It was at this point Remus broke into sobs all attention was turned on him and I could see the smile fade from James' face.

"What's up, Remus?" I asked concerned and confused from this newfound behavior of his,

"I'm gay," he said crying silently playing with his robes, at this everyone was shocked he was obviously awaiting an answer as the tears flowed more.

"That's great, Remy! Have we got a wolf-taimer in our midst?" James asked nudging me in my side he smiled and wiped the tears off his cheeks I sat up straighter hoping he would mention a name.

"Yes, but I'm not saying cause I'm sure they don't like me like that," he replied I slumped back down and stood up I nodded towards the castle to sad to speak, we walked back to the tower and waited for it to be time for dinner.  After dinner we walked back to the dormitory and slept.
