Summary
Lily groaned as the other fifth year boys settled around them at the table.
“Not you, of course, Evans. You always look lovely. But Sirius and Mary look about to hurl and McKnickers could do with a long shower,” He gave a silly look to Marlene, “You are absolutely ripe.”
Marlene merely groaned and shielded her eyes, “I’ll let that comment slide if you give me back my glasses. Your boyfriend stole them.”
“Remus, have you stolen Marlene’s glasses?” James asked with a twitch of his lips.
“ ‘Fraid not.”
“Pete?”
“Oh no, not me.”
Mary snickered and Lily had to hold back a grin by biting her lip.
Marlene merely scowled, “The other one, Potty.”
“Oh! You mean my husband? Sirius, love, will you give Marly back her sunnies?” James threw an arm around his best mate's shoulder, ignoring the huff that it resulted in.
“Anything for you, baby.”

Summary
“Promise me something, Siri.”
“Anything,” Sirius said quickly. There was nothing he would be unwilling to do for Euphemia Potter. He owed the Potters everything.
“Don’t let James run off and marry her without telling him how you feel.”
Sirius froze, shock rendering him momentarily speechless. Effie just stared at him, eyes brimming with soft understanding.
“I - I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Sirius stammered.
She raised an eyebrow. “I think you do.”
***
After Hogwarts, everything is perfect for James Potter and Sirius Black – best friends, roommates, and now partners in the Ministry’s Auror training program. But with the spectre of war looming, Sirius seems determined to put himself in danger and James finds himself wrestling with increasingly intense feelings for his best friend.
Or, James and Sirius realise they are far more than platonic soulmates.
A slow-burn, post-Hogwarts, Marauder Era story filled with angst, fluff, unhinged pining, unprofessional workplace behaviour, and shameless meddling from Effie and Monty Potter.
