Many people thought James was oblivious and in their defense he was about many things. But there was one thing James was never oblivious about and that was his best friend, Sirius Black.
He knew about his crush on Remus and he knew that he still hadn't acted on it. He knew that Sirius could hardly pay attention in any class, do none of the homework, and still pass exams with flying colors. He knew that the right side of his stomach was particularly ticklish.
And he also knew about the abuse.

Summary
If he'd just listened to that little logical voice in his head instead of the one begging for some sort of distraction he wouldn't be here.
Stupid Mother. Stupid Tom and his stupid war. Stupid Regulus for folding and agreeing to all this in the first place.
He'd just let it all happen like a coward. He couldn't stand up to them. Not like Sirius.
Fuck. Sirius.

Summary
Slowly he found his gaze drifting to the sky at night again except the moon no longer held love and the stars didn't remind him of Remus's biting quips, just pain like they had before. The next full moon he found himself on the Astronomy Tower, over the railing.
"My son's little star." Hope had called him. With a sad little smile he looked up at the sky.
"Have you ever heard of a fallen star?"
And the brightest star in the sky fell.

Sirius is pretty. Too pretty some said. And he can't remember when it started, can't remember a day before it, a day when strange men at parties or older kids pulling him aside meant anything but pain. It was just always there.
