3rd Person P.O.V
As the hours passed The Quidditch Cup had ended in a Gryffindor victory. And word that Remus was gay had spread to every corner of Hogwarts and was all anyone was talking about. James nor Sirius really cared that they had won The Quidditch Cup they were much to concerned about Remus and where he was and more importantly was he okay. So after changing out of there Quidditch robes as fast as they could. James decided he needed to talk to Sirius before they found Remus so he grabbed Sirius by the shoulder turning him to face himself . James said in a slightly rushes, nervous tone,
"Hey Sirius I know this is kinda abrupt ,but are you gay ?"
Sirius was genuinely surprised that James had asked so abruptly but said,
"To be completely honest I am and I always have been and I know
I've dated more girls that anyone else at Hogwarts ,but that is and always has been a cover up story to hide the fact that I was gay. And for the record I do really like and I do think I'm in love with Remus I just never thought he felt the same ,but if your not okay with me or Remus being gay then that's fine ,but you won't disrespect me or him got it?"
James gave Sirius a look that said are you kidding me then in a jokingly serious tone ,
"First of all I ship it and second look man I don't care if you guys are gay your still Moony and Padfoot right? So what if you guys like each other or just guys in general. That doesn't change who you are. So no I don't care at all ,but if anyone does give you guys crap about it they have me to deal with ."
What James said deeply affected Sirius he had always thought if he came out he'd be ridiculed or judged and right now his best friend in the entire world whom he considered to be his only family, was completely okay with who he was. Sirius was at a loss for words and simply gave James the biggest hug of their friendship. James whispered into Sirius's ear,
"We need to find Remus now."
To that Sirius simply nodded trying not to cry tears of joy. Finding Remus wasn't exactly hard when they had the marauders map so they found him in a secluded corridor that even they just realized existed.

Remus's P.O.V
I guess when your beyond hurt and cry as many tears as I do you lose track of time because little had I realized it was nearly 4 hours later. I had never cried for 4 hours straight I usually just cried myself to sleep or when I felt really insecure about myself ,but 4 hours that was a lot even for me. I thought about how was I going to go back to living daily life when everyone by now knew my deepest secret. My thoughts were suddenly interrupted by footsteps I was sure someone had come to beat me up or insult me even more ,but to my surprise the pair of footsteps that turned the corner belonged to none other than Sirius and James. James came up to me and said,
"It's okay Moony I don't care that your gay your still my best friend Moony nothing's ever gonna change that okay?"
James words hit me so hard I began to cry again although these tears were tears still of some hurt ,but a lot of joy because I hated people seeing me cry. It made me feel weak ,but I felt like at the moment I had an excuse to cry. I thought I'd never once see the day when people found out I was gay ,but two see the day where someone looked me on the eye and told me I was still Moony gay or not. It felt good having James accept me ,but now Sirius was still a question to be answered...
