The starting point
Sirius
Sirius Black didnt need help or saving.
Even as he stumbled out of the bar Friday night James running after him, he still didnt need help, "Sirius Jesus christ are you okay" He shouted watching Sirius doubled over throwing up buckets.
"M'fine"
"You dont look bloody fine- let me walk you home mate"
"No seriously im fine just give me some space" He stood up and leaned againt the wall catching his breath, then turned to James who still looked stupidly worried. "I really am mate one to many at all"
"Sirius i dont think you are at least let me walk you to your street" He was so kind it was honestly ridiculous- in a good way though. James was the sort of guy who you could do stupid shit with but somehow also acted like a mother. Sirius was the same minus the mother part of course, personally he thought things would be more fun if everyone just did the stupid shit.
"Just to the street then"
"Just to the street" He repeated and let Sirius slump his arm over his shoulder when they started walking.
"What a gentleman you are- you know lets forget about everyone else and just marry each other" Sirius said watching as some girls giggled and waved at James. He'd admit it, James was a beautiful man, messy dark hair, clear mixed race skin, quite well built and a decent set of abs. James knew it too he could be arrogant but not so much it was his whole personality- just confident more like.
"Oh for sure maybe i could marry you and date your brother" He said smirking as Sirius hit him "im joking im joking i barely even know him"
"Well hes not a talkative guy is he" Sirius replied dryly as the turned a corner.
"Opposite of you then you could talk for England"
"You wound me James"
"Well im being truthful"
"Some things should be kept to yourself"
"Does that mean i shouldnt tell you about the puke in your hair" James said grinning already knowing how his friend would react.
Sirius groaned and started shaking his hair around like a wet dog drying off. Honestly such a drama queen.
But Sirius loved his hair more than any part of himself and if it was ruined he fully beleived it called for an over the top reaction. He was an decent looking guy sure- well better than decent, he had the badboy vibe with an amazing jawline and a smile that could pull anyone with a glance. He also had a nice body and his leather jackets with boots really completed his looks.
But his hair. His shoulder length dark black hair- was what he really loved about himself if anything.
James hummed happily walking down the street, he had a few drinks but was somehow still sober, Sirius tutted and walked with him. How predictable.
"Right my lovley we have arrived at the corner since your so bloody stubborn"
"Piss off"
"I had fun tonight Sirius i would love to see you again are you sure you dont want to come over my place" James said sarcastically winking at him.
No wonder people thought they were dating.
"Im sorry but i think we should try with other people"
James put his hand on his heart, "i knew you didnt like me"
"Not my type go home"
James sighed and and hugged Sirius, "call me when you get in"
"You got it" He smiled hugging back.
He watched James disappear down the street before walking towards the alleyway by his house.
Sirius stumbled into the house and lazily took of his jacket. His house was small, not because he didnt have money, he had loads of that when his uncle died, he just didnt like flashing it about and spending it on himself. He grabbed a bottle of water and slumped onto the sofa taking off his shoes and turning on the tv.
"Spider-man comes to the rescue yet again this evening when multiple cars were stolen in downto-"
Sirius tuned the rest of the news reporters voice out. Spider-man. He had his fair share to say about him. The first thought being how horrible it would be if he was saved by him. He didnt need saving, "especially by someone in a spandex suit" Sirius thought leaning back. However- he was strangley attrative. Yes he wore a mask and yes you barley heard his voice- but there was something about the whole vigilante masked man vibe that really did it for Sirius.
He would never tell anyone but Spider-man was actually one of his gay awakenings, along with david bowie and Freddy Mecury of course.
It was ironic really, having a crush on a half human half spider. Thats what he assumed he was anyway. James had once admitted to being down to "explore" the superhero but refused to elaborate.
Sirius should have known then and there that his bestfriend was actually pansexual or at least queer, But nothing shocked him more when James came out to him a few weeks and Sirius told him he was into men.
He remembered the night he told James clear as day, they were sat in his apartment with their friend mary and they were talking about society. Mary was openly bisexual and talking about how the media needed more gay repersentation and when the talk turned to romance, sirius just had to say it it was like a burning ache inside his chest. "Maybe i should set up youtube channel and be that gay repersentation" He joked. Expect it wasn’t a joke. Well the YouTuber thing was but the gay thing- that was true. Luckily they picked up on this and hugged him and he cried at his friends support, his younger brother by a year, Regulus, was supportive too, Sirius suspected he might be queer himself but didn’t ask. That wouldn’t be fair.
Sirius turned off the tv and picked up his phone to text james letting him know that he got home safe. James responded so fast it was creepy.
“Cool just got home a few minutes ago myself- you busy tomorrow?”
“No why” Sirius responded
“You know that dude Mary introduced me too a few weeks back- was wondering if you wanna come meet him again with me rekon you’d get on”
Sirius’ curiosity got the better off him and he texted back agreeing to meet them at a cafe tomorrow afternoon .
“What was his name again james ?”
“Remus something- forgot his last name loopun or luprine something like that”
Sirius texted a quick response before turning off his phone and padded off to his bedroom, not even bothering to undress before flopping onto the bed and letting his eyes shut. The drink got the better off him that night and he knew it would take its toll tomorrow.
“This Remus better be worth it” Sirius thought before letting himself fall asleep
