sirius running away james pov
.2 august 1975, midnight
james was just going down for a glass of water, when he heard the knock. At first he thought i was weird that someone would be here at midnight. But then the thought of sirius last letter came to mind. He had said he might run away soon. He grab his wand just in case, and then ran to the door. When he opend he let out a gasp. There was sirius corved in blood, and all he had with him was a bag, his wand and his leather jacket. In one hand he held his wand, the other looked almost broken. "what happend sirius" he said pulling is best friend in, and sliding the back of his shoulder. Then he moved to shut the door. " my mother" sirius said and let a little groan of pain.
"not funny, mate" he said pulling one of his arms around his owen shoulder as they began to walk into the house
" not a joke" sirius replied not even smiling
" how did you even make to here" james said leading them over to the living room
" ran as padfoot, and pulled my back in my mouth" he said as james put him down on the couch
" james, dear, what is-" his mother stopped in the doorway when she saw sirius
" hello effie, how are you to night" sirius said with a smirk on his lips, but then let out a pained groan.
James watched as his mother began to pull potions out of cabins and open some. Then she carefully got to work on healing him, with both her wand and all sorts of potions. She looked all around his body. Turning him around to see his back, and making small noises when see saw what was there. When james walked over and looked at his back, he almost wanted to cry. There was a long cut running along, his back with blood spilling out them. They looked a little greenish outside on the edge. When james thought about his joke about it being his mother, a strong flame of anger inside of him. He wanted to make sure that sirius would never have to go back to that house. “ sirius, dear, what happened here?” effie said ruining her hand along them.
“like i said to james, my mother” he said with a little groan in his voice
“yeah, no way are you going back” James said looking at his best friends face
“ I wasn't planning on it,” he said, closing his eyes.
“ what about your brother, what was his name?” effie ran her wand up along one of the long cutes, as it slowly began to heal up. Sirius got a stain on his face and looked like he was going through constant pain. It almost looked like the healing hurt more, then the cutting must have. “ he will be just fine” sirius said waving a hand around, as tho to say that it was not really important. And from what sirius had told james about his brother he was almost like his parents. His mom got this sort of look on her face, like she most definitely thought that is was important.
“sirius he is just a kid” his mom said with a tone in her voice
“ He will be fine” sirius said turing over like he was about to go to sleep.
“ sirius, dont just sleep” effie said and was about to say something more, when sirius began making small snores. And boom he was really asleep. Effie got up with a shake of her head.
“ i still dont think we can just leave him there, maybe i should wright to -” effie stoped in her speaking, when her son shook his head. He knew what regulus was like, or atleast what he acoted like. He would be just fine in that house. Plus him and sirius did not seem to have that best relationship in the world. It was not the time to have the boy live here. it would ruin sirius. But as effie looks at him, james thinks that he can see that she is not going to let it go.
“ i will still try, to atleast” and with that she leaves the room. James is left alone with his best friend, and as he looks at sirius and all of his scars. He thinks of how all of this will go, what will happen next. In the mooring he should try and get sirius to tell remus and peter about the fact that he has run away. At Least so that they don't send letters there anymore.
Then he thinks of regulus. The last and first time he saw the boy, was at the end of there 2 year. He had been small with the same hair as sirius, but his eyes where much darker color. He had been thin like he barely ate anything at all. Regulus had pale skin like snivlus, but it look much better on him. at that time he had been head and extra shorter then james. James thought about if he had grown at all. Sirius had not grown all that much since they where 12, so maybe the boy was also as short. James tried to think about something eles but regulus just did not seem to want to get out of his mind.
James knew he likes boys ever since there 3 year when he had gotten a crush on frank from 4th year. He would get over that crush, but it helped him find out that part of him self. In his time james had hooked up with a few boys over the years. He thought about hocking up with regulus. Then stoped that thought. No, regulus was sirius younger brother, and if what sirius said was true a little shit.But then agin…. no no no. And as james lay down on the couch across from sirius he knew that this was ging to be along summer.
17 august 1975
James was so happy to day, because today remus and peter where going to come over. Then they where both going to stay until they all would go back to hogwarts. As he began getting ready for the day, he could hear sirius getting ready in his own room. They lived wall to wall, and both of them could not be more happy. Just as james got on his shirt after the shower, the door was opend and in cames sirius. He was dressed and had on the biggest smil james had seen on his bestfriend in along time.
After the whole noght, sirius had not been as happy as he normly was so james was glad tosee him happy agin. The day after had mostly been spent next to sirius while his mother tried to heal all of his injuries. Still now sirius would shut down here and there. He would just go all quit, and have this sort of look in his eyes. It was like was not really there. But as the days went by, it got better and better. And now it alomost never happend. It was like it was all back to normal.
" how are you my lovly james this morring" sirius said fling himself down on james bed.
" just fine, and why are you speaking like some posh prick?" james said fling down next to him.
" ahh, but i am posh, just not a prick
" i dont know about that" james said with a smirk on his face
" ohh really, come here you wanker!!" sirius said grabing on of james pillows and fling it at him. And so they began betting eachother with the two pillows.
" james, sirius rem- what are you doing!" monty stuck his head in the doorway looking at the two boys
" just havig a little pillow fight" james said putting down his, and then getting hit in the face by sirius
" wait did you say remus was here" sirius said saping to james father
" yes him and peter are down stairs"
The two boys dropped there pillows and ran to the stairs pushing eacher to get first. And when they came down satirs peter and remus where pulling in there trunks. The two boys turend to look at him and sirius. Peter with a big smile, and remus a smaller one. And as they all hugged a said helo agin, james knew that no matter what happend they would have each other for ever
