Sticky situations

New experiences

The ball- around 9:30
Sirius was really bored now.
Sure, at first his date was really fun but now all she seemed to want to do was slow dance and kiss, which wasn't on Sirius' to do list after the first time.
Sirius had kissed before, in fact, he had kissed loads before. But it was always the same.
Dry. Boring. Replaceable.
He left his DBR date in search of someone he actually liked.
Peter was a no show, too scared of Mulciber.
James had disappeared, lucky him.
Ah, Remus !
Remus was standing in the corner of the marquee, wearing a face that reminded Sirius of his Furry Little Problem.
Sirius walked over.
"Hey Remus ol buddy ol pal, how many people you killed with that scowl on your face yow zerz."
Remus looked up and for a second his eyes seemed to sparkle. Maybe Sirius saw a smile?"
——————————————————
Sirius.
That boy made Remus' heart break the speed limit.
And he did that without wearing a tux. Now imagine the effect he had on poor Remus when Sirius wore that dark grey tux, perfected with that stupid blue tie he wore to every single formal occasion.
"Remus..you there bud?"
Remus focused and felt his face heat when he realised Sirius was holding his shoulder.
Why tonight?
Every other night Remus could control himself but tonight the pit that he had been throwing his emotions into seemed to finally over flow.
It was too much.
Remus ran out before he could do anything stupid.
Sirius stood, confused.
"Remus wait, what's wrong?"
Sirius ran after him.
————————————————
James hadn't really spoken to Lily Evans before.
Sure they had short and usually snide conversations but they hadn't really talked.
That night they talked.
James was not complaining.
————————————————
Lily felt nice.
Yes she was stupid and weird and out of her mind for talking to James Potter about her problems.
But she felt nice.
They sat by a Willow tree, down by the Great Lake.
It was sunset and the glow of the water made Lily feel calm.
That and the fact that she was being held and comforted by the best hugger Lily had ever met.
Who knew Quidditch improved hugs?
They sat there for hours.
First James comforted Lily, she confided in him, but after a while they just began to talk.
No particular subject.
Just talking.
Again, Lily felt nice.
Around 10:30 they got up to leave as the light was rapidly fading.
They kept talking.
Even when Lily thought they couldn't possibly find more things to discuss, thoughts popped into her head starting another 5 minute conversation.
It was never ending.
They were so busy talking they didn't even hear the argument happening in the bushes beside the path.
————————————————
Sirius was worried.
He had been looking for Remus for about an hour now.
He could be anywhere.
Sirius sighed and sat down on a stump besides the path.
The stars were so bright he could have sworn he could see his namesake.
Suddenly his ears picked something up. Being a dog animagus had perks.
He heard soft, disjointed breathing.
He followed the noise and found Remus behind a large rose bush, hugging his knees, crying.
"Remus?" Sirius asked softly.
Remus snapped his head up.
"S-sirius?"
A single tear trickled down his scarred cheek.
Sirius rushed to his side.
"Remus, what's wrong, I never see you cry, not even when Pete steals your chocolate." A lame attempt at humour, but to his delight Remus chuckled softly.
"Don't worry about m-."
Sirius interrupted him.
"Of course I'm worried about you, like I said. You. Never. Cry. Somethings gotta be bothering you, come on Remus, help me out here, I'm no wizard- wait, yeah I am, oh don't worry, you know what I mean, and now I'm rambling oh gosh I'm really no good at this emotion stuff am I, and now I'm blushing, why on earth am I-"
Sirius was interrupted by possibly the least DBR kiss ever.
Where on earth had that come from. Who was kissing him. Who ever it was better not stop.
Those were Sirius' thoughts when his eyes had been closed.
What. Is. Happening.
Those were his thoughts after he opened his eyes.

Heyyyyyy long time no see.
Thought I should get some wolfstar down.
More jily next time. Maybe, depends how I feel. See you soonish ✌🏻
