'Love is thrown in airless rooms,
then vile rewards for you
Some night on the thriller's street
Will come the silent gun
You've got a dangerous heart
You stole their trust, their moon, their sun
There'll come assassin's needle on a crowded train
I bet you feel so lonely you could die

I can see you as a corpse hanging from a beam
I could read you like a book
I can feel you falling
I hear you moaning in your room
Walls have got you cornered
You've got the blues, my friend
And people don't like you
But you will leave without a sound,
Without an end, Oblivion shall own you
Death alone shall love you
I hope you feel so lonely you could die'











        Sirius' cheerfulness was steadily extinguishing itself from the moment the group returned from visiting St. Mungos.
Perhaps it was the usual wistfulness after a holiday that it had gone by so quickly or the nearing prospect of an empty house.

Sirius rubbed the back of his neck, seeming sheepish as they had talked, their nightly hot chocolates in hand — with bourbon, usually,
"I kind of stole your gift idea from my birthday, "

"That wasn't a birthday gift. It was just a 'Happy Friday' thing, " she joked, sounding tired already.

"Well, you gave it to me on my birthday, so I'm counting it as such, " Sirius shrugged, looking to the floor and then to her eyes trying to contain a smile,
"You want it — or do you feel like guessing?"
He laughed, feeling unusually awkward before handing Hera her gift.

Sirius was accustomed to spending his money like he hated it — and he did, to some extent, so he couldn't figure out for the life of him why he felt so awkward.
He wasn't the type to go and buy gifts for just any girl or even have friends who were girls — perhaps that explained his unease...

"You got me another vibrator, didn't you?"
Hera asked, her tone accusatory.

"Now, that wouldn't be appropriate, would it?"
He chuckled, thinking to their rude humour that was anything but appropriate — and that kiss from earlier...

"Well, pardon me, Monsieur, " Hera teased,
"but what else was I going to think? The box is the same size and everything!"

"Oh, just take it already, " He near-begged, surprised at how many suggestive jokes she'd managed to slip into their conversation throughout the day.
