unpredictable - Sirius Black

Amber love (ch.44)

Remus was there too, lied there comfortably, his head resting on Lily's legs, his eyes closed as he soaked up the sun that peaked through the leafless branches, his cheeks flushed from the cold and nose red, matching the scarf wrapped around his neck. A few nights ago it had been the full moon, so the sandy haired boy was droopy and tired. His body taking it's time to heal. His gloved hands were playing with the few snowdrops sprouting from the ground.
He'd always loved those flowers.

Every once and a while, a lazy smile would tug on his face as he listened into the conversation, being too tired to contribute, but still being unable to tune out.

Sirius was close to you, your legs being pressed against each other, his hand subconsciously placed over yours, shielding it from the bitter breeze, his warmth soaking into you like an electric shock.

Hazefully listening to Lily and James talk rubbish, an amused smile on your face, you felt Sirius' warm breath in your ear "I think you look extra pretty today"
You couldn't help but smile at him as he smiled back, only looking at your lips.

"Extra huh?" you giggled mockingly, as the boy just stared deep into your eyes, a smirk on his face. Not a flirtatious smirk or a childish one, one filled with adoration and what seemed like love. Looking at his face, you saw against this smirk was a singular dimple, noticing that it was only on one side. You thought it was cute.

"Yes extra, you look pretty every day obviously" his face was inching closer to yours, you could practically feel his breath on your face as he just smiled at you and you just smiled at him, gazing into each-others eyes.

"aw"

Your head snapped to the girl who was looking at you both with a great smile on her face and her hands clasped in front of her in awe. You couldn't help but let out a little laugh, remembering that it wasn't just you and Sirius there.

"See why can't you be like that!?" Lily exasperated pointing at James, who was paining on a moustache with mud, quickly raising his hands defensively

"Like what, what you want me snog your face off"

"no no-"

"coz i will" the boy then shuffled closer to the girl who was trying to back away but still had remus lied on her.

"James!-" He then grabbed her face and just like he said he'd do, 'snogged her face off', an excessive amount of him messily kissing her as she tried to get away. The twos faces broke apart slightly as they began laughing at one another before kissing once again.

You were looking at the pair before turning to look at Sirius, who, as you had just realised, hadn't stopped looking at you, his hand still on yours and the smile still on his face, which you returned. Flipping your hand over, you intertwined your fingers with his a warm feeling in your stomach.

"I'm still here y'know" Remus croaked.

As you all walked up to the Gryffindor common room, one hand in a certain werewolf's and the other in a certain pain in the arse - James of course, your arms all swung in unison, like little children at a playground.

Lily and Sirius were a bit behind you three, chattering away, Lily with her hands in front of her explaining something and Sirius with his arms crossed over his chest. Lily was a passionate speaker so clearly they were having an interesting conversation.

"What you gonna do for your birthday Moony?" James asked giddily as you went up the moving staircase, the portraits clinging to the wall all watching you, as they always did.
