Summary: Craig visits Jamie like he said he would.

Craig was a bit nervous about walking into Jamie's and Dylan's suite, well more the walk in the hallway. He still wasn't really in the mood to talk to Sirius. It wasn't so much he was upset with the other man, more that he wanted to withdraw and give himself some breathing room. There was no need to get feelings towards someone who did just want to shag.

And it'd be easy for Craig to fall for Sirius, he already had started. Luckily he wasn't in too deep. Though likely Jamie and Dylan would say he was since he had taken the first steps. Would be easier if he wasn't such a good kisser.

Still he had more important things to worry about right now. Jamie and Dylan being those two things.

Though he was sure Jamie would be, well maybe not relieved, who knew what the reaction would be, about Craig having a date the next night. It should be a good distraction at least. Though he had told the bloke that he might need to cancel, a family emergency was going on and he could get called away. Jamie and Dylan were more important than a date. They were more important than anything right now.

Opening the door Craig saw Jamie in the living room and offered him a smile, "So you sick of me yet? Where's Dylan?"

"It's all right, Craig. We've always known it was a possibility, a probability even. We're living with this. It's everyone else who feels guilty for thinking it, but it's really okay," he said.

"I'll try. How's that? I've offered to be Snape's guinea pig. He returned, I don't know when but he was here this morning. We'll find something just to spite everyone," he said, trying to convince Craig more than himself.

James tensed when Craig got up, but didn't move. Instead he looked up at Craig, meeting his gaze. "Because I thought you deserve the truth, because I didn't want you to find out from someone else, and no I'm not planning on saying anything, but secrets come out. I've learnt that recently. I didn't want to be a coward and keep this from you."

He took a deep breath and then nodded. "He doesn't want a relationship. If I thought he did, I'd back off, but he's a shag them and leave them kind of bloke."

No, it wasn't alright. Jamie saying it was almost made it worst. "I don't want your blessing for being willing to admit you might die." Craig told him, "Hell I'd rather you scream and bitch at me. Your blessing makes it sound like you've accepted it, you can't accept that. None of us can." Because accepting the possibility gave a better chance to it happening.

Nodding Craig said, "Damn well better," He told him, quirking his lips when Jamie said he offered to be Snape's guinea pig, "Bet he'll love that." He then nodded, "Won't forgive you if you don't." He told him.

Sighing Craig ran a hand through his hair as he moved to sit down in a chair away from Jamie not looking at him. "I almost wish you hadn't," He told Jamie, his gaze still focused away from him, "But you're right, its better finding out from you than someone else."

He saw Jamie nod out of the corner of his eye, and the words hurt him, yes, but.

Sirius wasn't important here. Jamie was. Jamie and Dylan were. Standing Craig moved back to the couch and laid his head back in Jamie's lap. "Doesn't matter." He told him softly, "Merlin right now nothing matters except making sure you and Dylan make it through this. Everything else can wait."

"I've accepted the possibility, Craig. I'm not stupid, and denying the obvious isn't going to make me better. I knew that weeks ago," James said. "Why do you think I was willing to go to Voldemort? I know I'm dying, and they still haven't found a cure."

"I'll still do everything that needs to be done, take all the potions they want me to, be subject to every spell. Even if I wouldn't do it for myself, I'd do it for Dylan, Scorpius and Allison. They are suffering because of me," he admitted.

"You would find out, and-" James ran his fingers through his hair, smiling surprised when Craig moved back on the couch. "We're not... I mean neither one of us wants a relationship, and you know we wouldn't be able to even if we wanted, because my Dad would go nuts. I guess what I'm saying is that it's just sex." They were friends, too, and James hoped that it would survive the lack of sex, but Craig was more important. "I'll stop if you want."

Craig sighed, "I really wish in this case you were. And that I could still get mad at you over that." He looked up at Jamie, "Hell I had the same thought after you mentioned, trying to trade my life for yours and Dylan's, or offer him, well anything." He closed his eyes, "Knew I didn't have anything he'd want though. Not after getting to you and Dylan." It hadn't been an easy thing to accept.

"They're suffering because Voldemort is fucking insane." Craig told him firmly, "We can agree on pretty much everything else in this situation but about this I'm right and you're going to fucking agree with me." Craig told him, knowing if nothing else maybe the guilt right now would get Jamie to pretend to agree. "It could have just as easily been me instead of Scorpius if I had been there, and you wouldn't have kept me away either. Voldemort started this, blame him, not you."

Craig offered up Jamie a half smile when he played with his hair, glad at least to see his friend smile, though it was hard to maintain. "You know I've never been able to understand that," he said sighing again, "Why I've always been the girl of the group." He looked back up at Jamie, "Do I want you to? Sure, a part of me does. But I can't ask you too. That's not really fair either is it?" None of this situation was. "I can see you just wanted to protect me, not a complete fool."

He paused as something else occurred to him, "You didn't tell Sirius I was interested did you?" He might have to hex him for that if he had.
