Okay, it starts off with Sirius taking James to the astronomy tower to show him the stars and constellations, etc. It's their thing, Sirius quizzes James on it, Sirius tells him the stories associated with it.
They do when need a break from life and stress.
Years pass and James goes into hiding with Lily and Lil Harry. James wants Sirius there, he needs him to keep him sane.
"I can't look up at the night sky and find comfort if you're not there."
Sirius gives him a pained look. Sirius can't look to his side and find James missing from it.
They are each other's safe place. But things are the way they are. But it doesn't mean he can't give something to James. He gets a clear quartz crystal pendant and carved a star in it and imbues it with just enough of his magic for james to sense it.
"You carry a part of me, always, Jamie, but here's something to physically hold to when you're losing yourself in the starry night, I'll be there, trust me. Watching, holding on to everything you've given me." They kiss. Lily smiles at them, holding a small Harry.
That awful night happens and Sirius doesn't even have time to properly mourn his love before he's spirited away to Azkaban. Years pass, he escapes and he goes to the abandoned, dustry home, knowing he'd find little to nothing there.
Except the crystal pendant. His magic gone, instead replaced with James'. Though barely there, it's still humming to Sirius.
The night sky becomes slightly more bearable to look up at once again.
