Marlene to Dorcas.

“We were electric, I know. More than that, we were real. Stable. I have never wanted to be one thing forever, but maybe I could’ve been yours.”

Sirius was never much of a fan of music. Sure, he liked music, a good song to cheer up the ambient. A good song to play on the radio or to dance to at a party. He knew who were the top artists according to his friends and the popular songs amongst his classmates.

Sirius wasn't picky. He listened to whatever was on. Sometimes he liked it, sometimes he didn't. But he guessed he didn't make music his life.

That was until Remus came back into his life and taught him about music. He taught him to feel music instead of listening. He taught him to choose the perfect song to the current mood. It was powerful to dance to some upbeat song when he was happy. It was even more powerful to listen to a very sad song when he was sad and cried with it.

Remus didn't like what was popular or the dirty rap people played at parties nowadays. He was an old soul. He liked music that existed ages ago. Sixties, Seventies, Eighties. He had a wide repertoire of artists. His favourites were David Bowie and Fleetwood Mac.

"I wished I could've been alive in the seventies" he told him once "Being alive at the same time as Freddie, go to a Bowie's concert, get drunk on a ACDC tour...Watch Stevie Nicks dance on stage...."

Sirius liked hearing him talk about his music, his singers and the stories behind them. Sometimes the lyrics told a story. Sometimes they expressed pure love. Sometimes they were full of hate. Many times they expressed exactly what Sirius's felt.

It wasn't only the music that made Sirius feel things. But the boy listening with him.

Remus made Sirius close his eyes with the earphones on and truly listen to a song, truly feel it. But Sirius cheated. He opened his eyes to see Remus with his eyes closed, singing the lyrics under his breath.

It was beautiful how Remus enjoyed a song. Sirius felt goosebumps when it happened. He thought it was the best song ever. But then when he listened to it alone, it wasn't the same.

Sirius concluded it wasn't the music. Remus made music better. It became one of Sirius's favourite activities. Good old music, cigarettes in hand, watching Remus enjoy the moment. His sweet smile.

It was wonderful but music was one of the things that made Sirius fall in love with Remus. Something they shared and brought them closer.

Later the snogging with good music in the background was celestial. The sex with good music was magical.

Sirius loved music because of Remus. And he loved Remus because of music.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

Remus entered the bathroom determined to confront Sirius. He didn't speak french, so he hadn't understood what Sirius had been yelling at his brother. And certainly not why he punched him.

But Regulus's nose bled. Remus tried helping until the younger brother told him to fuck off and dragged his friend away.

Now Remus wanted to know why did Sirius have to solve everything with punches.

Although when he crossed the door, Sirius looked vulnerable, it made Remus's heart melt. Sirius was still shaking, with tears in his eyes and his knuckles bleeding. He was looking at his reflection like he was ashamed of what he did.

"If you are going to yell at me, please fuck off"

Remus couldn't fuck off. He was too involved.

When they were kids, Sirius used to show his wounds like a big hero. One slap from his mother, one punch from his father, his governess's many punishments... the cuts they used to get running through woods or falling from a tree branch. Those were marks of their adventures.

It had made Remus see Sirius like a knight in shining armour, the prince of his dreams. Back when Remus used to worship him. Also it was a good excuse to take care of him. A secret to share.

It was something that hadn't changed. Remus still worshipped that boy. But seeing Sirius wounded wasn't a sign of adventure. Only a sign of how much Remus should worry. He knew how fucked up Sirius's family was.

So Remus didn't leave. He walked closer and inspected Sirius's hand.

"Does your brother have a jaw made of steel or what?"

That made Sirius smile.

"I also kind of punched the wall on the way here"

"Okay" Remus sighed. "Let me see" He tried grabbing Sirius's hand but the latter pulled away.

"I'm fine"

"You're hurt" Remus took Sirius's hand, ignoring the soft sparks it gave him and brought it closer to inspect. Besides the blood, it didn't look bad. "Does it hurt?"

"No"

Remus tried touching the wound and Sirius winced. That gave him the answer.

Remus opened the water tap.

"What are you doing?"

"I have to clean up the blood to see better"

He dragged Sirius's hand under the cold water without consulting him. Sirius hissed when felt the water and let out a soft curse. But then he started relaxing.

Both of them silently focused on watching the blood wash away.

"Why did you punch him?" Remus had to ask "Regulus"

"Because Regulus is a little shit"

Remus smiled "I just remember him as this cute little kid that used to follow us around"

"He was annoying then" Sirius rolled his eyes "Now he'd become such an arsehole"

Remus wanted to ask why. How did they become two people that couldn't stand each other. Remus remembered they used to bicker as kids, as siblings apparently did. Now their fights were more vile and violent, always with the intention of hurting each other.

Remus didn't know what had happened with Sirius and his family over the summer. But maybe that had made the brothers fall apart.

However Remus didn't say anything because it was clear Sirius didn't want to talk about it. There was a reason why they spoke french in front of Remus and Regulus's friend Crouch.

"We need alcohol and a bandage" Remus said instead, still cleaning the upcoming blood "You cut yourself"

"There might've been a loose nail on the wall"

"Sirius..." Remus scolded with a worried sigh.

Sirius simply shrugged so they didn't say anything else. There was no more sign of blood so Remus closed the tap. Sirius mumbled under his breath that the wound was burning.

Remus looked away but he could feel the penetrating gaze of Sirius on him. His thoughts were loud although Remus wished he could know what he was thinking about.

Remus loved Sirius. He always had. And he probably would always will.

Remus remembered how much he wanted for Sirius to give him his first kiss thankful for the wound cleaning. Remus wanted to kiss Sirius now.

"You always take care of me, Moony" Sirius finally said.

When Remus looked up at him, Sirius's gorgeous eyes were still on him. He wasn't being subtle about it.

"We are friends" Remus whispered, trying to tell himself that he couldn't just kiss Sirius even if he looked that good.

"Best friends" Sirius clarified.

"Best friends" Remus wanted to push him to the wall, or against the sink and kiss the heck out of him. Shit.

Then Sirius leaned closer making Remus's heart stop for a second. But he didn't kiss him no. He just leaned his forehead on Remus's shoulder.

Remus didn't know if this was better or was worse. He was begging for Sirius not to notice how his heart was beating loudly now.

"My family is shit" Sirius said which was surprising "My brother is shit..." he sniffed "I'm always going to choose you, okay?"

Remus had no idea what he was talking about. What did he mean? He vaguely remembered Regulus gesturing towards him when they were discussing but that didn't mean anything. Regulus was probably insulting him.

Maybe what Sirius meant was that he would always choose his friends. Plural. All his friends over his family which made more sense.

"I know, Pads" was what he said. Although he was frozen and he didn't know what to do having Sirius that close.

He knew what he wanted to do. He just didn't dare.

Sirius looked up out of the sudden and Remus found himself looking into those gorgeous gray eyes, shiny and glassy still.

Remus tried, God he did try, finding something to say to break the ice. But he was stuck and lost in those eyes. Those eyes that looked into his. And for a second flickered to his lips. Maybe Remus was imagining things at this point. Was Sirius leaning closer or was that his idea?

Some kind of invisible force was pulling him in again. Perhaps his want for Sirius.

Before they knew it, they were closer and closer. Only a few inches away. They could just close their eyes and kiss. That was all. It could happen that easily. Sirius wanted it as well, right?

Remus remembered all those nights inside his room, writing Sirius's name inside hearts, listening to silly love songs and practicing to kiss with a damn photograph of Sirius.

It felt like a dream come true...

But suddenly someone crossed the door, causing a loud bang and it was as if they were pulled back in an instant. Taking as much space between them as possible. But only their cheeks slightly pinks as proof of what almost just happened.

Remus was losing his mind.

They had been interrupted by some younger kid. He might've been around twelve or thirteen. None of them knew who he was. Probably he didn't know them either. He was shockingly looking at them like they were strange animals from a zoo. It happened for seconds until the random boy walked to one of the stalls and locked himself in there.

"We should probably go" Remus whispered to Sirius "Probably the poor kid wants to take a shit"

That made Sirius laugh which made Remus relieved that they were back to normal. He didn't know what had happened but Remus didn't know how to handle it. It didn't mean anything. Sirius was flirty and touchy with lots of people. Including James.

Bet he hadn't been inches to kissing James, eh? A voice said inside his head.

"Want to skip class, Moons?" Sirius asked.

Remus shook his head "We cannot skip every single class, Pads"

Sirius showed his hand with a pout "But I am wounded"

Remus smirked "Don't be dramatic"

Sirius smirked back "Dramatic is my middle name"

Remus rolled his eyes in affection

"Fine one cigarette but we'll go to the next class"

Sirius gave him a beautiful smile. And Remus loved him. Even if he played with his head all the time. Even if the boy would drive him crazy.

"Deal, Moons"

Sirius rubbed his hair like good mates did. Good mates! And they finally left the bathroom together.

Puppy love

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

“been waiting and waiting for you to make a move, before i make a move”

but it’s lily, finally catching feelings for james, who has finally come to terms with never having his feelings reciprocated.

when she lets her hand linger on his shoulder a little longer, when she smiles a little wider before giving him a peck on the cheek, when he catches her staring in the great hall, winking, before getting back to talk to mary - that’s when he’s left with a mind full of questions; he’s probably overanalysing. they’re just friends. she would never like him like that, she said so herself.

meanwhile, lily is screaming into her pillow at night, desperately waiting for him to finally catch on and make a move, before she has to.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

Lily and Snape might've been friends but it was still a toxic relationship. And like every toxic relationship, Lily had a hard time getting out of it. She felt guilty and she missed him for a long time. Until she realised she was better off without him.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

yes the typical trope is james pining after lily, but what about james who just thought lily was the coolest person on earth before realizing he had feelings for her? from first to probably fifth or sixth year, this boy was tripping over himself in amazement at her smallest movements. the way she made tea, nobody else could do it like her. her perfect grades, he had never seen anything like it. the uniform she wore that was exactly like everyone else’s, red carpet worthy. in fact, lily was already a celebrity to him. whenever he would bring this up with anybody (aside from lily’s friends), he would only get a mild reaction. yes she was loved over campus, but the general consensus was that she was just a kind and gorgeous swot, which was practically blasphemy in his mind. why wasn’t everyone else swooning like he was when lily evans was a gods gift to hogwarts??

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

Halloween was suppossed to be fun. James had been sure this one would be unforgettable. For starters, it was the last one they would have at Hogwarts. James, as Headboy, and Lily, as Headgirl had the brilliant idea of plan and host the best party ever.

James had thought that his sweet girlfriend had gone bunkers when she suggested it the first time.

"What are you doing, Potter?" Lily asked when James touched her forehead.

"Making sure you don't have a fever" James said "Are you feeling well?"

Lily scoffed and pushed his hand away "Jesus! Am I that boring?"

James smirked "The Evans I know wouldn't approve of this... A clandestine party?"

Lily pursed her rosy lips "We are asking the teachers for permission, remember?"

"And snuggling alcoholic beverages" James reminded her "Your words"

Lily smiled beautifully making James think: wow, so sexy.

"Come on! I just wanna have fun like a real teenager for one night. And I want all my friends to have fun as well..."

"What about your handsome boyfriend?"

Lily giggled "Him too" she kissed his cheek "I want to be a cool Headgirl. What is the harm in that?"

James figured he would do anything she asked him. He was doomed. It had to be love what he felt for her. He wanted to take the the moon and the stars for her just to see her this happy.

He nodded "What's the harm in that?"

Lily squealed and wrapped her arms around him. James's heart bit so hard that he almost said those three words he'd been dying to say. The need to say them out loud was getting worse. James had to bite his tongue many times. It was too soon.

They put all of their friends on board. They invited people from all houses. Lily even convinced teachers with her good behaviour history that they wouldn't need chaperones. James even bought extra food and extra drinks from his money just to please his girl.

The night of Halloween, The Gryffindor Common Room was full of creepy decorations, dressed up teenagers and good music. James looked around from up the stairs proudly. They had done a good job. He hoped Lily was happy. They would go down in history like the best Headboy and Girl ever. Also the hottest couple.

James grinned widely as he took a sip of his drink and walked down the stairs. He received congratulations from many people. Teammates, younger kids he knew, even some Slytherins like Dorcas Meadowes.

"Nice party, Potter" she said "You even beat up The Knights' Party. Everyone decided to come here instead"

He was sure they were nicer and more inclusive.

"What are you supposed to be, wanker?" Marlene asked looking down at him.

James had to admit the girls' costumes were impressive. Marlene was a male doctor with a fake wart on her nose and Dorcas his sexy nurse.

"Brad from the Rocky Horror"

Marlene looked at him "You're just dressed as yourself"

James was offended "Found the exact same outfit excuse me! Plus, I changed my glasses"

Marlene didn't look convinced. Dorcas hid her smile behind her cup.

"Where's everyone?"

"You mean your dumb friends?" Marlene shrugged "Haven't seen them"

James was actually worried for Sirius. He had been worried about him a lot lately. He was explosive, destructive and tended to do stupid shit. James could bet he was with Remus. Sirius had power over that shy boy.

"And Lily?"

Dorcas pointed to a spot near the drink table "Over there"

James opened his eyes like plates contemplating the image in front of him. Lily was chucking down a drink in one gulp. A group of what appeared to be fourth years were cheering her on. His Janet.

"Shit" James mumbled and walked to them.

To be fair Lily looked happy, and damn so so beautiful. Her cheeks were pink like when she was embarrassed. But she wore that smile better than that pink dress.

The fourth years cheered him on, one of them telling him to follow Lily's steps and drink too. James smiled but waved them off.

"Hey darling" James took away Lily's empty cup.

Lily beamed when she saw him.

"Oh hi!!" she said, grinning, putting her arms around his neck "Hi, Potter. Did you see that? I just did my first bottoms up!"

James smiled because she was adorable and definitely drunk already. God, he had left to pee and talk on the phone with his mother for 20 minutes.

"Nice, Evans"

"I'm just having a blast!" Lily was practically bouncing "Best party ever! And it was our doing, love!"

"Your doing" James kissed her head.

"Want to complete the dare as well, eh Captain?" Rick asked him. He was a good kid on the team.

But James shook his head.

"I'm taking my girl to dance"

James grabbed Lily's hand and dragged her to the dance floor. Lily happily followed him.

It was easy how Lily put her arms around James's neck, he grabbed her waist and they sway. Smiling at each other.

"You look beautiful tonight, darling"

Lily blushed deliciously.

"Thanks, darling" she answered "You look like a nerd"

"Oh thanks..."

Lily chuckled "A sexy one!"

Shit, she was adorable while drunk. And so so sexy.

"I've never had a Halloween like this one!" Lily said proudly "I'm not Penny Prefect anymore..."

"No?"

"NO!"

"Are you Penny Head Girl?"

Lily scoffed "I am fun!"

"Is that right?"

"Yeah!" Lily nodded enthusiastically "I found a couple snogging passionately in the loo earlier (minus some clothes) and I didn't care. I've been drinking with fourth years, practically children. And I even showed everyone how I walk upside down with my hands"

James adored this girl.

"Impressive"

"Thanks" Lily winked.

James smiled.

"Seriously, Potter. Thank you for making this possible. For making me happy"

James would do anything for her. He could do more. She deserved everything.

"Of course, gorgeous"

Lily smiled back.

James looked around.

"Have you seen Sirius or Remus?"

Lily shook her head.

"Peter?"

"He was dancing with Mary a while ago" Lily said excitedly.

"Oh!"

"They looked adorable!"

Peter would be glad to have Mary for himself. But James was still worried about the other two...

"Hey, Mr. Headboy" Lily made him come to his senses by grabbing his chin and making him face her "Stop worrying, this is a party. We don't worry at parties"

James was calmed. He was just sure Sirius was a mess right now. They used to share everything before. Until they stopped. James didn't know what happened with his family over the summer. James didn't know what Sirius was thinking lately, what he was up to. James had been too busy with his Headboy duties, Rugby, his relationship with Lily.

Remus probably knew. Those two had been like glue lately. James was a bit jealous.

"Potter" Lily repeated and James realized he was too in depth inside his thoughts "Tell me something else. Something different than your Sirius"

James frowned. His Sirius?

"You're hot when you are jealous, Evans"

Lily hit his arm playfully "I am not jealous!"

James smiled "Sure"

For a second, Lily was all James saw. She was gorgeous and radiant with that smile of hers. Her green eyes looking into his. It was as if the rest of the crowd around them was completely gone. It was just the two of them in the world.

James kissed her. She tasted like vodka and cranberry juice.

As always his heart was loud and jumpy inside his chest. He had goosebumps and a warm feeling inside that was getting stronger, stronger, stronger.

James tended to be sweet with Lily. She never seemed to be in a hurry for more. Always pushing him away when James tried touching her.

Right now, James was pulling apart, but Lily pulled him closer again. She was passionate. James's body temperature immadiately went up. He wanted her of course. But not when Lily was a bit intoxicated.

Reluctantly he pulled away.

"Lily..." he whispered now. Foreheads touching, eyes closed. The song playing was an upbeat one but James didn't care. They stopped moving.

He only called her Lily when he was being damn serious.

"Yeah?"

Shit, if he didn't say it now, he was probably going to combust. He had been using words like "fancy", "into you", "like", "care" but none of them gave justice to what he actually felt.

"I love you"

It made sense then. Saying it gave James a sense of calmness because that was what he felt for her. What he had felt for her for a long time.

Lily opened her eyes in surprise.

James waited for seconds. He had hope Lily would smile anytime soon and say something like: "I love you too, tosser" and they would kiss again.

Lily took a long time to answer. Her eyes went for a second to something behind James. When he turned he saw him standing next to the arseholes of The Knights: Snape.

Shit, James knew some Slytherins had crushed, but he didn't know that wanker was one of them.

He was looking furiously at them.

James looked back at Lily. She looked back at him, looking guilty.

"James..."

Lily only called him that when she was being damn serious...

James waited....

"HEY PRONGS"

James was glad and relieved to see Sirius and Remus there. But not right now, what a bad timing. Plus, James noticed the soft hickeys on Sirius's neck, the swollen lips, the red eyes, the messy hair. Sirius had been probably snogging some girl and Remus had been covering for him.

"Where were you?"

He sounded even more pissed than he intended.

Sirius and Remus looked between each other in complicity.

They were dressed as Freddy Mercury and David Bowie so it would've been iconic in other circumstances. Although Freddy's mustache was long gone and David's lightning makeup was all ruined.

"Around, dad"

Sirius sounded drunk as well. He turned to Lily.

"Evans! You haven't danced with me!" then back to James "Mind if I borrow your girl, Prongsie?"

James did mind. But seeing Lily now hurt, so he let her go with Sirius. She was laughing with him. As if nothing had happened. As if James hadn't poured out his heart for her.

"You alright, Prongs?" Remus asked carefully. He stank of weed.

"Who was Sirius snogging?"

Remus went pale.

"I don't know"

James was pissed.

"You were suppossed to take care of him!" he yelled, and stormed away. James couldn't be there anymore.

Inside the bathroom , James felt like his heart was broken into a million pieces. He never believed that Lily wouldn't love him back. Had he been stupid to say it? Maybe it was too soon. They hadn't been dating too long, only a couple of months.

James couldn't stop repeating the pathetic scene inside his brain. He despised his own reflection. How he had ruined everything in an instant and...

Snape...

It had been Snape's fault. He had ruined everything. Why did he even have to be there? It was supposed to be their moment.

James felt untamed rage. It was mixed with pain, alcohol and tiredness. He walked out of the loo with the only purpose of finding him.

Luckily, James found him alone by the stairs. The twat was still looking at his girlfriend as she danced with Sirius.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" he said storming into his presence.

"Excuse me, Potter?"

It was pathetic to see Snape trying to act like a teenager with drink in hand. Lurking around the corners though. Like the coward he was. Not even wearing a costume.

"You're not invited!"

"I thought this party had an open invitation to all houses..."

"Not you! I did not invite you!"

James even pushed him back. He was furious. He hated him.

"Get the fuck out of my house, my party, and my life while you are at it...NOW!"

Snape smirked "Your house? Your party?" He scoffed "You think you are royalty because of your Headboy badge? You think you are above the rules and you can have a party without getting caught? Life full of luxuries and fame, ha?"

"You know who is my best luxury?" James asked "Her, Lily"

That hit Snape right in the gut.

"Is she? Funny how she is dancing with Black now"

James scoffed.

"Stay away from her" he said "Stop looking at her, stop surrounding her, stop breathing the same air she breathes! She is mine now. So back off!"

He pushed him stronger this time.

"Lily is not your property, Potter" Snape approached "As much as you like to believe it"

"She is perturbed by you and your presence!" James thought about earlier and just by seeing him she froze "Just leave her alone"

James grabbed Snape by his shirt with all the will of starting a fight. But a voice inside his head asked him to stop. It sounded a lot like his father.

"You are better than this, son" Monty said.

He had promised to be better and stay at bay. Snape brought the worst in him but Lily brought the best. He released Snape.

"What is it, Potter?" Snape said "You just realised I am right? Lily is going to eventually see the monster that you are and she's going to leave you"

James closed his eyes to focus. She loved him. James had chosen the worst moment to say it. He had to try again another time.

Suddenly the music stopped, it sounded as if someone was grabbing the mic. James opened his eyes to see Lily, his Lily, on top of the table.

"I want to say something! I just want to say something!" She waved Remus off, who was trying to get her down.

Lily looked even drunker than before. James knew Sirius was responsible for that since he was grinning at her.

James saw that Snape was surprised as he was.

"Who's having fun??"

Everyone cheered at Lily's words. She smiled.

"I want to say that none of this would be possible if it weren't for someone special" Lily carried on "The Headboy, Gryffindor Captain and my boyfriend" she smirked "Give it up for James Potter!!"

The attention was on James now. The crowd was clapping and cheering. James faked a little smile. Snape had quickly hidden away in the shadows.

"I just wanna say that he's special..." Lily's gaze found him "And I luv'im"

James was in shock. He was usually an attention seeker but this felt wrong.

"I LOVE YOU, POTTER!" Lily screamed now through the microphone "DO YOU HEAR'ME?"

She was drunk. And she was talking bollocks. It was kind of humilliating to hear those words like that. With everyone's eyes on them. James had wanted it to be more intimate.

Because he really loved her, this was not a show for him.

Lily was enjoying being the show girl now. She was dancing and bowing for her fans.

"Look what you've done to her, Potter" Snape said somewhere behind him "She's becoming just like you. Pathetic to get some attention"

James felt like he wanted to cry.

"AND I DON'T KNOW, POTTER!" Lily continued with a shrug "I MIGHT LET YOU SHAG ME TONIGHT"

James's mind went to last week at Hogsmeade. He had rented a cabin for them because he was sure they were ready to take that step. He wanted to be romantic. And even if Lily hadn't wanted to do it in the end, James had been patient with her.

James's face was burning with humiliation. People found Lily's performance amusing and funny. People were looking at him like he was a pervert.

James couldn't let this continue.

He ignored the stares, laughs and comments on his way to Lily.

"Lily, come on" he said calmly "Get down"

Lily was confused and this close James could see in her face how drunk she was. Which made James feel worse.

James grabbed Lily by the waist pulled her up and dragged her down.

"Potter!!" She yelled.

It was the only way he could get her out of there. Even if it looked worse. Like she was actually shagging her.

The party resumed so as the music. At least James and Lily weren't the center of attention anymore. But still there were people that stared.

"That's enough, I am taking you to your dorm" James said as he finally put her on the floor and Lily lost balanced.

She pouted "But I am having fun!"

James took a deep breath like a parent dealing with his child. Lily was hugging his waist. There was no sign of Snape luckily.

Kids around were saying "Nice, Potter! You're lucky" or stuff like that which was making James pissed.

"Prongs!" Sirius came towards them. Remus right behind him.

James was so angry with both that he would've punched them if Lily wasn't balancing on him.

Sirius was trying not to laugh.

"Wow Evans, what a show!"

"Sirius, she is drunk" Remus shook his head.

"Do you think this is funny?" James asked, rather pissed.

Sirius stopped smiling.

"Why did you make her drink like that?"

"It's not like I forced her! She wanted to drink. She was having fun"

What James did was fume his friend with his eyes. Because he was going to say something mean.

"Oh my God, Lily!"

The rest of their friends were around. Mary, Peter, Marlene and Dorcas.

"She's going to regret all of this in the morning" Peter commented.

James swallowed "Yes, help me take her upstairs" she could barely stand up.

Mary and Marlene were immediately surrounding Lily with their arms.

"Prongs, let me help" Remus begged.

"You've done enough" James stopped them.

"Are you seriously angry with me too?" Remus asked.

James pointed at Sirius "You encourage him"

James left before they could say anything else. He saw Sirius rolling his eyes. And Peter asked: "What happened now?"

James carried Lily in his arms while Marlene and Mary cleared the way for them. They were commenting about the scene and Lily being this drunk for the first time. Whether it had been Sirius's fault or not. James was silent. He kept staring at Mary's shinny fairy dress.

Once at the girls' dorm, James placed Lily on her bed delicately. She was groaning and mumbling James's name.

"I wanna party"

"I think you've partied enough for tonight, love" James said tucking her in.

Lily closed her eyes so James kissed her head.

"Can we agree that was kind of a lot?" Marlene broke the silence. She always did that.

Seeing the girls hiding smiles made James loosen up. He let out a soft giggle. Green light for the girls to laugh as well.

"Oh God" Marlene tutted "She's is going to feel miserable in the morning, won't she?"

James turned to look at her. Knowing her she would feel awful for all of it. James felt kind of guilty.

"I thought it was quite romantic" Mary grinned, then added "The part of she saying she loves you, James. Not the shagging part"

James didn't say anything.

"Although they say we say our most deepest desires with alcohol in our system" Mary added "Maybe she has the wants of you"

James felt his face on fire.

"Mary!" Marlene protested.

"I'm just saying maybe Lily was horny tonight..."

"Can you leave me alone with her?" James couldn't hear anything else.

The girls looked at him.

"Oh my God! Not for shagging, she's pissed!"

Marlene hit her friend.

"Shut your big mouth"

"He's kicking us out!"

Marlene pushed Mary to the door.

"Of our own dorm!"

"Bye lover boy!" Marlene chanted.

James smiled at them.

"Could you please find the prefects and tell them to shut the party down?"

"But it is barely past midnight..." The blond girl protested.

"Party is over, Marlene"

"Yes, Mr. Headboy" Mary grinned.

Marlene groaned. But dragged Mary away. James could hear both of their giggles down the hall.

James took a seat in the chair next to Lily's bed. She looked so peaceful in her sleep. Mouth half opened, occasional moaning.

James wasn't angry with her. He wasn't angry with Sirius or Remus. He was mostly angry with himself. It felt like he had forced Lily to do everything.

First the party, because he liked those and enjoyed those so Lily must've felt like she should like them too.

Second the "I love you" thing. He should have waited. Just like he had planned. But his feelings had to betray him. Now Lily had felt pressured to say it back. And she had drank alcohol to do it.

And lastly the sex thing. Maybe Lily felt pressured about it too. James had only rented the cabin because he thought they were ready. He wasn't one of those arseholes that took advantage of girls.

What kind of boyfriend he was? Did Lily want to be this cool party girl because she thought that that was what James wanted? Have he given her signs that he wanted something different from her?

Lately James had been feeling shitty about his past and the way he had behaved. Always getting what he wanted. Putting people down for not being like him. A pretentious rich boy, a brat that walked around with privileges while others didn't have them. Like the king of the world.

He was thinking lately that he had made people around him like that. Like Sirius. Or Peter.

Maybe Sirius was realising that, maybe that was why he was drifting apart.

James hadn't meant it but maybe he had manipulated people to his will.

Now he was doing it with the girl he loved. His precious Lily.

James grabbed her hand.

"James..." Lily mumbled squeezing his hand.

"Oh Lily, love" James took a deep breath "Why did you have to get that drunk, ha? Why did you have to say it like that in front of everyone? Why couldn't just say right back when I first told you?"

Lily frowned still his her eyes closed..

"Sorry"

James relaxed.

"It's okay, Evans" he said putting her hair away "I understand why you might not love me.... I was a dick to you. I was a dick to a lot of people.... But I am trying to do better, okay?"

Lily didn't answer this time. She might've been asleep.

James sighed, he kissed her head again.

"Good night, beautiful" James said "I meant what I said. I really love you. And I will be patient with you. And hope you love me back"

Silence.

"Now I have to go back and send everyone to bed before the teachers catch us" he chuckled "You and your party, Mrs. Headgirl"

Now more calm James rose to his feet.

"I love you, Lily" he said again. Now easier before walking out of the room.

Remus couldn't stop looking that way. Alecto was a very pretty girl. She was laughing in a perfect way. Her hair was soft, long and shiny. It was obvious that she came from a rich family by the way she dressed and presented herself.

Worst of all, she looked good next to Sirius.

They could be that kind of couple that would make anyone envious. Pair of pretty wankers.

Luckily for Remus, Sirius didn't want a relationship. He declared he wanted to be single, and have as much fun as he could before becoming a real adult in the real world.

That was good for Remus since it hurt to see Sirius with any girl and it was bad because Remus was in love with him.

If Sirius didn't give a pretty girl like that any chance for a real thing, Remus would never have a chance.

That didn't stop him from flirting, laughing and talking with Alecto. Pretty Alecto.

She was enjoying the attention. He was touching her hair. Remus had a knot on his throat.

"Do you want me to kick her out?"

Remus had almost forgotten Lily was there. They had been in silence, trying to complete homework. But Alecto's laugh was too loud.

"Ha?"

Lily had her eyes still on her paper.

"Alecto" she rolled her eyes "I can use my Prefect privileges and tell her she needs to leave. She's invading Gryffindor property anyway"

"Oh" Remus felt his face burn "I don't mind"

Lily looked up at him. Then she looked at the couple on the other side of the room.

"You've been focused on them more than your homework, Remus"

Remus played dumb.

"Oh, Sirius flirting? That's not new" he shrugged "I don't care"

Lily gave him a look.

"Remus" she said "I know"

"Know what?"

Lily pointed that way "You like Sirius"

Shit...

"Yeah, he's my friend. I have to like him by default"

"You know what I mean, Remus"

His crush was supposed to be a forever secret. Because Remus knew nothing would happen with Sirius. And he didn't want people to feel sorry for him.

But Lily was a smart girl. She had a way something inside that no one else did. She reminded Remus of his mum sometimes.

"It's just a stupid crush" Remus lied giving up "I'll get over it"

Lily didn't look convinced.

"Sirius is very straight" Remus added, gesturing towards him. Now he was whispering something on Alecto's ear. It was painful "Clearly"

Lily pouted looking at the scene as well. It was as if she was thinking of a way to fix it.

"It's fine, Lily" Remus faked a smile "Don't worry"

Lily sighed "Maybe you should take a distance then. Or else you are always going to suffer"

"He's one of my best friends"

"I'm not saying you should stop being his friend" Lily clarified "Just, keep your distance. Meet other people" then a soft smile. "There are cute gay boys out there"

Remus hated it but Lily was right. What was Remus planning to do? Fuel the crush by spending time with Sirius and then sulk when he flirted with someone? He might've not wanted a relationship now but one day he would fall for a girl. And maybe she would be his girlfriend and they would marry... Have kids...

No! God! Better not think about it.

Remus needed to get over Sirius before it got worse.

Deep in thoughts, Remus didn't realise that Alecto had left and Sirius was walking over them.

"Hey Moons" Remus only reacted when Sirius squeezed his cheek.

The smirk on Sirius's face was radiant and beautiful. He was so beautiful. Although it hurt to think Alecto could be the reason for his happiness.

Remus had to follow Lily's advice.

Remus pushed him away "Sirius..."

"Evans" Sirius added quickly.

"Black" Lily rolled her eyes.

Remus wished he could despise Sirius like Lily did.

"This looks boring" Sirius said, taking away Remus's book. "Care for a break? We can have a fag together" and then he gave Remus that smile that gave him messy butterflies.

Remus saw Lily pursing her lips and she gave him a knowing look.

"I can't" Remus answered, ripping the book from Sirius's hand "I'm busy"

"Come on, Moony!" Sirius began protesting "You've been revising for ages! Some of your brain cells might have burned by now"

Remus could take a break. He would love to be alone with Sirius and laugh with him about silly stuff. But that would make him love him more.

"I said I'm busy, Sirius"

"But Remus..."

"I CANNOT ALWAYS BE AT YOUR BLOODY DISPOSITION!"

Remus had screamed so loud that he made Lily jump and a few kids look over.

Sirius was taken aback.

"Jesus, what a mood"

Remus was really sorry. This crush was killing him and turning him into a mess.

"Why don't you invite your new friend? Alecto? You two seemed too cozy before"

Shit, shit, shit. Remus had never intended to sound jealous but perhaps he was. He goddammit was.

"Alright" Sirius snapped "You're spending too much time with grumpy Penny Prefect"

"Hey!" Lily exclaimed indignated.

But Sirius was already walking away furiously.

"Little reminder to help you get over that crush, Remus" Lily tutted "He's an arsehole!"

Remus knew that sometimes Sirius was an arsehole. But he loved him. He loved everything about him.

He groaned showing his frustration and hid his face between his arms. He was so screwed.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

This is how my Grant meets Remus in my muggle AU. Lots of misgendering because Remus is trans and this was before his transition. In fact, Grant helps him with it.

They were both part of Fenrir Greyback's criminal gang called The Howlers before Remus went to Hogwarts.

Also....Happy Grant Chapman's month!

****

Grant had nothing to hope for, no to care about, no one to protect. He used to believe he was a loner. He was alone in this world, only taking care of himself.

Surely, the Howlers, the group of boys that had rescued him from the street, were his immadiate family. But at the end of the day, Grant knew he would fleed or run away if he needed it to.

That was until he met Remus.

And somehow that boy became his everything.

It happened three years ago. The Howlers crushed a party to sell some drugs and steal some profits. Grant didn't think about the morals behind it. It was his way to gain money, his way to survive.

It was easy if he just did it quickly, without thinking too much about it. Hands inside people's pockets, purses and bags. Finding wallets, cellphones. And pocketing them. Handing stash, receiving bills. As instinctive as brushing his teeth. Simple as that.

Grant left school because he sucked at it. Grant left his old life because it was a sin to be queer as he was. He was dumb to get a job, he struggled with reading still.

He was good at stealing. He was good at convincing people to buy him pills.

Although sometimes Grant was caught. Like that night, when a bloke found him searching through his jacket's pockets.

"Hey! What do you think you're doing, mate?"

First thing Grant thought: the boy is fit. Gay as fuck, he was.

But he didn't have time to think about anything else, as he ran. The chase was fun. As twisted as it sounded, Grant loved the adrenaline of this criminal mind. And blimey! This house was big.

Grant ran through the corridors upstairs, passing teenagers snogging, getting high or pissed on the floor. He heard the voice of his chaser just after him. So Grant ran into the first room he could.

The quietness and peace was shocking inside that room. Music quieted down, no screaming or laughter. "I could live in a place like this" Grant thought. Big and comfy bed, window with a nice view of the garden. Nice fancy things that Grant had never owned and probably would never own. A massive closet.

Grant was for a second fantasizing with the idea that he lived here, that this was his house, this was his room and he had invited all these people over for a party.

Fuck it! If Grant would never have these things, he had to at least see them, touch them for a while. He went to the closet. There was even a key on the handle lock (posh) and opened it.

What Grant didn't expect to find someone in there. He let out a little scream and jumped at the sight of a kid.

"Bloody fuck!" he exclaimed "Why're you doin'in here, mate?"

Grant saw what appeared to be a girl. She was not girly or feminine as others downstairs. Not that he cared about girls. This one used a large hoodie, ripped jeans, convers and a beanie covering her hair. This girl was visibly shaken, hugging her knees. She was surprised to be found. And it looked like she had been crying.

The girl stood up quickly, wiping her tears away.

"I thought I was never going to get out of here" she said with a soft voice. But deep enough.

There was something else as well. She was trying to hide how scared she was, how sad she was. In that moment, Grant knew this kid was though.

What had happened? How did this kid get inside that closet? Was she locked in?

Before Grant could ask questions, someone was about to enter the room. Probably the wanker that was following him. So Grant did the only thing he could think of. He pushed that kid inside the closet and hid both of them.

He also covered the girl's mouth before hearing her protests.

"Where the hell is this fucker?" a voice asked outside. The wanker.

"Are you sure he walked in here?" another male voice asked.

"I'm pretty sure"

Grant could see through the slits the figure of this broaded boy. He was someone Grant would shag. Brainless muscular wankers were his type.

The bloke stopped in front of the closet, and Grant begged he was daft enough not to think to search in there.

"Come on Greg" the other voice said "Must've gone through the back stairs"

Yeah, tosser. Grant thought. Listen to your friend.

Grant was praying to the God he hated that this bloke would just go away. He only sighed in relief when he heard the door closing after him. Perhaps God didn't hate his queer ass that much.

With his problem solved it is when he realized the company he had inside that closet. It wasn't that massive anymore. Tiny if you shared the space with someone else.

"Thanks for covering for me, sweetheart" Grant winked that the kid next to him, putting his hand down. She blushed. Grant noticed she had cute freckles across her nose. She was standing too close.

"Why was Greg looking for you?"

Grant grinned. He had the bloke's wallet inside his pocket for instance.

"Yeh know'im?"

The kid shrugged "Goes to my school" she answered "His girlfriend and her friends locked me in here"

Grant stopped smiling.

"Why?"

"They hate me" the girl hugged herself "Think I'm a freak"

Grant felt sorry for her.

"They were going to leave'you in here?"

The kid shrugged again.

"Just a stupid prank"

It sounded like a twisted prank if you asked Grant. The Howlers and him were no extent from doing shit like that. Pranks and violent jokes. But to those who deserved it, awful people that made Fen pissed. Not innocent kids, adorable kids like the one Grant had in front of him.

Grant had a feeling of protectiveness toward her.

"What's yer name, luv?"

The girl blushed again. She took her time responding something as easy as one's name. Maybe came from a posh or famous family and was embarrassed of it. Maybe she didn't trust Grant.

"Lu... Lupin" she stuttered.

Grant smirked again.

"Lu Lupin" he extended his hand "M'name's Grant"

Lupin shook it a little scared.

"How old'r you?"

Lupin squarred her shoulders.

"Fourteen"

The same age Grant had escaped the orphanage. Because he kissed a boy for the first time. Because he liked it. And Margot, his tutor, had torturted him for it.

"Aaah!" Grant exclaimed with a big smile "To be that young again"

They got out of the closeted space. He could see his companion was relieved.

"How old are you?" the Lupin girl asked "Do you go to my school?"

"Seventeen this summer, luv" Grant winked "And I don't do schools"

Grant saw dissapointment in that kid and he realized she was more lonely and scared that he thought. Maybe she was looking for a friend.

"People used ter do stuff to meh as well at yer age, yeh know?" he said "Cause I'm gay"

Not in a closet precisely. A praying room. Too soffocating, no windows, just a kneeler and an altar. With a large cross and a Jesus judging him. Grant remembered how he had lost track of time and space after days of being in there. Until he begged to be left out. Until he swore he would never desire a boy again.

"What did you do about it?"

Grant shrugged "Ran away"

Lupin smiled.

Just to have something to do, Grant fetched a cigarrette from him pocket. Maybe it was a stolen pack. With a cig inside his mouth, he offered his new friend one.

The girl was fasinated, but shyly took one. When Grant lit it for her, the girl coughed.

Grant giggled "First time, eh?"

The girl's face was red. She was adorable.

Grant touched her shoulder.

"I can teach'ya luv" he said.

Maybe Grant can teach her not to take shit from anyone anymore. To become strong, like Grant had taught himself to be. She didn't have to be alone.

"Ok" and Lu was eager to be accepted it seemed.

"Let's go, sweetheart" Grant walked to the door.

"Where?"

Grant turned with a smirk "Yeh need to meet the boys"

Fen was in a bad mood when Grant found him and the others a few blocks away.

"Where were yeh, Granty?" Fen asked with a sniff "An' who's that?"

Of course, The Howlers didn't expect Grant to come back with a friend. They looked at Lu with curiosity.

If she was a girly girl, with big tits, skirts and makeup, the boys would use their hungry looks. Now they were just curious. Because Lu could pass as a boy.

Lu, that was what Grant had been calling the kid.

Grant laughed because Fen was using that pissed expression that always amused him.

"Relax Fen, this is my new friend"

"We don't accept girls in The Howlers" Dom commented.

"Except for a good shag" Tommy added with an evil smirk.

"And yer queer as fuck, Granty" Isaac laughed.

Fen spit on the floor "Don'tell me ye've straightened up and left dicks for good"

Grant was used to their somehow stupid jokes. They might all be straight and women crazy, but still respected Grant's sexuality.

"I'm a boy, actually" Lu spoke suddenly, with the voice hoarser and deeper.

Grant was somehow proud of her bravery. No, HIS bravery.

"Lu!" he exclaimed.

"My name is actually Remus. Remus Lupin" he said with forced conficence "And I don't want to shag any of you, no offense"

Grant laughed in amusement, clapping his hands. This kid was so much cooler than he expected.

"Great!" he bounced towards Remus before Fen got to speak "Maybe I won't be the only queer boy in the group"

He put his arm around Remus, his Lu. And when the kid smiled in relief, Grant felt something beautiful and warm inside his chest.

Grant was sure this kid was going to be his new best friend.

What he didn't expect was to love Remus Lupin as if he was his life, his family, his everything.

Three years later, Grant didn't expect to spend his summer snogging his Lu. And it wasn't sexy, hot like the other boys he shagged. Not just to get off. Sometimes it was careful, beautiful, full of love.

Sometimes, those kisses left Grant's body with so much shivers and nice sensations that all he wanted to do was say three words he had never said to anyone.

But Remus had his Prince Charming of course.

And Grant wasn't good enough for him.

Remus deserved his posh school, his posh friends and his Gorgeous Prince Charming who would not give him this life of criminal records, drugs and violence.

"... And he's all bruised Grant, all his face" Grant could hear how broken his Lu's voice was. He wished he could be there in front of him to hug him, maybe kiss him. Kiss his salty lips. "I reckon it was his parents' doing. They did that to him"

Prince Charming might have a dream life full of money and luxuries. But apparently he had his own demons as well.

"Sounds awful, luv"

"I... I think I'm going to spend the rest of summer at The Potters" Grant could imagine Remus biting his lip with guilt "I need to be there for Sirius..."

Grant smiled comfortably as if Remus could see him through the phone.

"Don't worry about it, Lu" he said "I understand. It's yer Prince Charming after all"

God, did he sound jealous?

"I'm just his friend" Remus sighed "We haven't even talked about the kiss"

"One step at the time" Grant chanted "Told yeh, if he doesn't want yeh, he is a dick!"

Grant ignored how Remus's laugh gave him butterflies.

"I'm gonna miss you, Grant"

That gave him a whole zoo.

"Me too, sweetheart" Grant said "Maybe I'll see ya at Christmas. We can do some snogging over winter, eh? Ter keep us warm"

It was as if Grant could see Remus's smile. And he was pleased with himself.

"That is if ye're not with Prince Charming by then"

"Ha!" Remus giggled "See you at Christmas then"

"Okaay..."

"What're you'r telling Fen and the boys?"

"Don' worry 'bout them, Lu. I'll handle Fen"

He was a toxic wanker that didn't want to let Remus free. He wanted to control his life and his future. When Remus was too smart for that.

"Okay" Remus sighed in relief.

"I luv you, Remmy"

"Love you too"

And Grant understood he didn't mean it like he wished. Shit, better bury these feelings for Remus then. He was not the one for Remus. Prince Charming was. Grant just had to accept that.

Peter could sense the atmosphere was weird. James had been sulking for the past hour. Peter had been trying to distract him by playing some videogames, or telling him about the new comic book he was reading. But nothing.

It had all been weird since James and Sirius got into a fight. A physical fight that was. James's knuckles were still bruised. Peter imagined Sirius's nose too.

"He's just jealous, you know?" Peter said after James sighed for like the tenth time. Looking miserable.

"What?"

"Sirius" Peter said still his eyes on the Mario kart race.

"What are you talking about?"

At least he had James talking now. Of course, Sirius was all he cared about.

"Sometimes, Prongs, you are so oblivious you blow my mind" Peter tusked.

And James didn't know about the Sirius and Remus thing yet.

James raised an eyebrow. Peter kept on playing.

"He's your best friend, right?"

"Yeah" James shrugged "I mean, I guess"

Peter paused the game and turned to look at him.

"It's fine" he said "I get it. You met him first on the train. And you and him have the same humour, the same sense of fun. No wonder why people say you share a brian cell. You are practically the same"

James didn't deny it. Peter knew Sirius was his favourite.

"What matters is that he is your best friend, yes?" Peter continued "And now Lily becomes your favourite person, and you start spending more time with her than with him. Then you start dating her. And lately all you want to do is pay attention to her"

It's been a nightmare actually. James was annoying with the Lily subject even when she hated his guts. Now she was all he talked about. She was everywhere. Even Peter felt left out.

"That's not true!"

"Yes it is" Peter exclaimed "You know it is true. And Sirius knows it's true. But you both boil it up until you both go at each other's throats and start yelling or punching each other"

Which was definitely what had mostly happened if Remus had intervened and took Sirius away.

"Now everything is weird between The Marauders"

James moved his leg and rubbed his hair. Sign he is nervous.

"He is not my best friend"

"Yeah, right" Peter chuckled.

"I mean he is" James clarified "But so are you. And so is Remus"

"You can't have more than one best friend" Peter shook his head.

"Says who?"

"Says logic!"

"Well fuck logic!" James exclaimed "Cause you are my best friend too, Wormy"

The way he smiled made Peter feel welcomed. He believed him. And even though this was Peter trying to make James feel better, Peter had a nice sensation inside of him.

"Ok" Peter smiled.

James smiled back.

"Just because I am dating Lily doesn't mean you guys are less important to me, okay?"

James said it with such confidence that Peter was calmer. Sirius would have to believe him as well.

Peter nodded "Okay"

They didn't say anything else as Peter resumed the game and they played in silence. James didn't seem that sad anymore.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

What Lily and Harry could have been, if she had seen her boy grow up.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

The idea was jily in transfiguration 6th year when lily first becomes charmed by james' interest in the subject. Then I realized I'd drawn them in muggle clothes cuz I love drawing outfits and couldn't decide if this was english or chemistry. What do you think muggle!james' best class would be?

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

Random Headcanons about the Marauders: (Modern Setting)

Peter wears one of those digital watches because he can't read the manual clock. His watch glows in the dark. It is also water proof. It is actually pretty cool.

Peter has pimples on his cheeks. Remus as well. They struggle with acne. Whereas James and Sirius had cleaner skins.

Sirius looks like Walburga but has Orion's hair, more wavy than curled. Regulus looks more like Orion but has Walburga's curly hair. Although Walburga straightenes all the time.

Sirius hates when people tell him he looks like his mother.

Marlene always tries to get piercings but somehow always get infected and has to suspend them for a while.

James has one of those apps that tells him scores and punctuation of teams or athletes in different sports. He keeps up with The World Cup, The Olympic Games even the F1. Can talk for hours about sports.

Lily wears clips on her hair mostly every time. She has a collection of them from different shapes: butterflies, hearts, teddy bears, fruits, letters or phrases.

Remus is a Mythology fan. Greek Mythology, Roman Mythology, Nordic Mythology. You name it. He sometimes compares situations with scenes from mythology getting the moral out of the situation.

Dorcas needs reading glasses. She hates to wear them but she actually looks good with them. Might need permanent glasses but she ignores the fact.

Mary has a sweet tooth. She is constantly eating sweets, candy, gummy bears and lollipop. She loves anything sour, with cherry and watermelon.

Regulus blasts classical music through his earphones and it is actually funny because he has the aesthetic to be listening something rock, punk or dark metal. But his music and sweet and melancholic.

Effie and Monty gave James a dog named Charlotte when he was 9. A princess pug. Because they couldn't give him a sibling and he needed the company. James would die for his princess Charlotte.

The Potters also own a Black Labrador that on the contrary of Charlotte is playful and energetic. His name is Padfoot and James started calling Sirius that because he found them similar.

Padfoot is Fleamont's favourite.

Lily's family owns a cat named Noodle. She is very old. Has been in the family before Petunia was born.

James is a dog person. Lily is a cat person. Imagine the Jily dynamics.

Artist Sirius and Pianist Regulus both passionate about their discipline but Sirius's is more chaotic.

Peter likes anime and comic books. Secretly obsessed with Anime Girl Characters with big boobs.

Pandora has braces. She is autistic. And has ADHD.

Barty is into film making especially gore, terror and psychedelic films.

Barty knows there are ghosts at school and would confirm it to anyone that wants to listen.

James keeps his glasses dirty without noticing to the point someone has to ask him to clean them. He cleans them with his shirt even though he owns different types of wipers. Everyone wonders how he actually sees with them.

Lily has the bad habit of biting her nails or her nail polish.

Remus labels his clothes, and school supplies because his father used to do the same.

Remus believes in crystal energies and uses because his mother used to believe that.

I can think of many more but this post would be too long... Might do a part 2.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]
