- We should not be doing that right now. Class is starting soon.
We are in a closet on the third floor. James had pull me inside for important madder. That what he said.
- Its not like I really care; this is more important. He says with his usual grin on his face.
Then he leans to kiss me. I roll my eyes because right now I absolutely did not care that I was probably going to arrive late to class. James always gets us in to stuff like that, but I am getting us to it after 6 months of secretly dating. When James start to kiss me in the neck I stop thinking about class.
When we get out of the of the closet, we look around making sure their nobody. Then he kisses me and says
- See you later love.
And start running to attempt to make it in time for the beginning of the class and I do the same.
When I arrive I the class everybody is already there, so I go sit next to pandora right in font of Barty and Evan per usual. While I get my thing out of my bag, I see everybody starring at me. I look around there’s noting so I turn to pandora and ask her what is going on. She laughs at me and says.
- Look at your tie.
- What do you mean my tie there’s nothing wrong with my ...
I look down and I see a crimson red ties. A Gryffindor ties. Fuck that not good, if I have James ties that mean he got mine. And he is in the same class as Sirius, we are so fucked.
- Fuck merde il est tellement stupide.
I hear Barty laughing at me and saying.
- I wonder what your brother will say when he we realize that you’re sleeping with a Gryffindor.
- Yeah, I’m sure he will be please. Evan says laughing him too.
- So how is its lover boy? I bet its one of the Prewett brothers.
I don’t say anything and try to get up and maybe catch James before class to switch ties, but Flitwick enter the class at that exact same moment and immediately says.
- So, lets get started we have a lot of things to do this morning.
When he gets up on his chair and turn to face the class, he sees my different ties he frowns.
- I think that someone here got the wrong ties. Right Mr. Black?
I almost die on the spot from shame. Now everybody is looking at me great. I try not to sound rude when I say.
- I’m sorry sir its just a mistake.
Flitwick nod but still say.
- Its ok Mr. Black but I must take 5 house point for not respecting the dressing code.
I just nod and sit back down. Great I’ve made a fool of my self in front of everyone and now I lose house point. I can hear Barty and Even laughing in front of me still trying to guess who I’m sleeping with. I try not to kill them right there and focus on the beginning of the class. But pandora tap me on the shoulder.
- Are you going to tell me who is the lucky one. She says whispering into my ear. I roll my eyes. Not telling my friends about James was one of the hardest things with a secret relationship. I truly love him and not sharing everything with pandora was weird. I know that it was the same for James because he tells practically everything to my brother and his other friends. I shake my head and say.
- No not now.
- Well, when because everybody saw you with this tie and its probably the same for your secret lover.
I laugh hearing pandora referring James as my secret lover. But she is right everyone have seen us with different ties so we can not just act like I didn’t happen. Plus, I know that Barty, Evan, Dorcas and pandora won’t let me get the chance to go to the dorms and change tie.
- I guess you will find out with everyone else in the great hall for dinner.
- Well, I’m excided to see that.
To be honest so I’m I.
I run the faster that I can try to make it on time for the beginning of the class. But McGonagall classroom is quite far, and class start in 2 minutes. But its not like it is the first time that I arrive late to one of her classes. When I finally arrive to the classroom everyone is already there, and McGonagall is writing on the board. I try to go to my desk without her noticing, but I only make a step and she immediately says.
- Mr. Potter, I see that you are late for class again.
- Again, it’s been almost a week since I last arrive late!
She only smiles and says.
- Go to your place you are disturbing the class. And 5 points form Gryffindor because your late and 5 points because of your uniform.
- My uniform. What wrong with it?
I hear a couple of people laughing and then Moony says.
- Maybe you should look at your ties. Have you change houses during the morning.
When I look down, I see a green ties. Fuck I have Reggie’s tie. We probably switch this morning and didn’t realize. That mean that Reggie got my ties. I doute that he notices before getting into the classroom. So, we must tell everyone, and everyone mean Sirius. And that mean I’m dead. When I get to my place, I see everyone staring at me. I try to ignore them but Sirius whisper to me.
- So, the person that you’ve ben going out with is a Slytherin. Are you going to tell me who it is?
- Yes, James are you going to tell us? Marlene says.
I love Marlene and Sirius they are like my brother and sister but right now I want to kill them. I shake my head.
- No, I’m not.
- Prongs I’m your best friends you must tell me who it is. And besides everyone is going to find out at dinner because we all seen you with this tie.
- Well, you’re going to find out with everybody else.
- Oh my god the betrayal. I’m supposed to be your best friends.
- Sirius, love calm down is not that big of a deal. Moony say.
- But at lease tell my that its none of Reggie’s friends because that would be weird.
I almost laugh in Sirius face.
- No for sure its not one of Regulus’s friends.
They continue to argue but I don’t listen to them. I am too busy trying to find a way that a could get myself out of this mess. But then Sirius says.
- You know that I’m not going to let you go now right. Its today that I am going to find out who you are dating.
Well, I guess that its to late now I’m going to died.
When I arrive at the great hall with pandora everyone is staring at me. Its not a surprise news travel fast at Hogwarts and when it includes someone popular like James its even faster. Probably a couple of people have connected the dots because I see people gasping and turning to tell their friends. When we arrive at the Slytherin table I see some judging me. Hear snape says something to one of is friends about who I’m gross and some shit like that. I don’t say anything because that would make a scene and I don’t want that now. We go sit next in front of Barty Evan and Dorcas.
- So, it’s the moment we are all going to find out your biggest secret.
- Stop being dramatic Barty.
- So, who are you’re number one suspect for the secret lover of regulus? Dorcas says.
- We are between 2 persons. Evan thinks its one of the twins Prewett, but I think its Lupin.
- What the fuck Barty he is my brother boyfriend why would you think that?
- Well, its would be way more dramatic and fun.
I roll my eyes and laugh. And then Dorcas says.
- Its true that it would be iconic, but Sirius would never talk to regulus again.
- Well, I can say that neither of you got it right.
- Really its not one of the twins.
- No, its not. You’re not even close.
When its time for dinner we are all walking in the direction of the great hall. Sirius and Marlene are talking with Peter and Mary about who is most likely to be my secret lover. But no one had found the right answer. Remus drag me by the arm away from the group.
- How are you going to tell Sirius that the Slytherin you are dating is his brother?
Remus know because one time I had brought regulus to the Gryffindor dorms and Remus walk on us making out. We were lucky that it wasn’t Sirius but since then Remus always ask me when I was going to tell Sirius. We always respond that we didn’t know. At first, we keep our relation secret because regulus hadn’t done his coming out. But then months past and regulus had done his coming out. And we still hadn’t told Sirius about our relationship. And now we are force to tell Sirius in font of the whole school.
- Well, I don’t know. I guess that he will just figure it out when he realizes that its regulus who have my tie.
- Moony, prongs come he we have to walk in the great hall all at the same time.
My heart is beating fast. I have no idea who Sirius will react. When we step into the great hall, I see people with a surprise face. Then I see Reggie he looks beautiful like usual, and his face didn’t show any expression. I slowly start walking to the Slytherin table and I stop just behind Reggie I hear Sirius gasping and swearing. I lean toward Reggie to speak to him.
- Sorry its my fault.
- No, its not we should of check before going to class.
- Oh my god Regulus you’re fucking James Potter wow I absolutely did not except that.
Then Barty turns to Evan and say.
- I’m still the one closer because Lupin and Potter are friend.
I look at Reggie confuse. He just laughs and shake his head.
- You can give me my tie now.
I undo his tie and give him. He does the same with my tie. We bot know that now we have to go talk to Sirius. But as Reggie is getting up Sirius arrive and says.
- YOU BROTHERFCKER. MY BABY BROTHER. Who could you do this to me.
- Oh mon dieu Sirius arrête d’être autant dramatique. Ce n’est pas la fin du monde.
- Oui c’est la fin du monde mon frère et mon meilleur ami couche ensemble.
Then Sirius turn to me and says. ¸
- Je pensais que tu m’avais dit que ce n’étais pas un des amis à Regulus.
- Sirius turn back to English I don’t understand anything you just said.
- I thought you said it wasn’t Reggie’s friends.
- Well technically its not.
- Anyways who long have you two been fucking behind my back.
I look at Reggie for help but he only say.
- That you’re problem now.
- So, who long?
- Six months.
As soon as I said that Sirius almost jump at me. He is furious. I don’t blame him to be honest because I lied to him for six months. So, I can understand but he is still a drama queen, so I prepare myself to die.
- SIX MONTHS WHAT THE FUCK JAMES.
As he said that I knew it is time for me to run. So that what I do.
- Well that when great.
As I sit next to pandora I know that everyone is staring at me, but I just ignore them and start eating.
- I knew Sirius is a drama queen but that is a next level.
- I can’t believe that you’ve been going out with James Potter, and you never told me.
- Sorry about that Dora but it was easier that way.
- So, you really do love him?
- Yes, I do.
