last weekend you got into a massive argument with the sirius. he made an absurd and uncalled for joke about you, and in turn you said some really horrible stuff about his family situation, and it ended in you both going in separate directions and not speaking for the rest of the day. or the rest of the weekend. or the rest of the next week.

you’ve not spoken to him since saturday. it’s now thursday. you’ve never gone this long without talking to him before, usually the two of you are so close. you’ve still been speaking to remus and james, just completely ignoring sirius. the worst bit is he didn’t even care about the argument an hour after it happened, you’re just stubborn.

you’re sat in the boys’ dorm, helping remus with his english essay. james is babbling to you about quidditch while remus writes his first draft, your hand carding through his hair with his head in your lap. sirius comes into the room and jumps on you. you coo at him and pet him. because to you this isn’t sirius, this is padfoot the dog who occasionally finds his way into the gryffindor dorms. the dog that you’re unaware is sirius. the boys trust you with their lives, they’re just unsure about how you would react if you found out they were animagi, and in remus’ case, a werewolf. james goes to hit sirius for getting in the way of his cuddles, but you scold james for trying to hurt a dog. padfoot snuggles into you happily.
