Marlene was drunk, so fucking drunk. It was kinda pathetic actually. She’d underestimated just how low her alcohol tolerance was, and had at least 3 drinks that night. The thing about Marlene, was that she was very much a “do before you think” kind of girl, and that was only exastrabated by the sheer amount of fire whisky in her system. So, when a certain mean Slytherin quidditch captain came up to her, Marlene acted on impulses, and kissed her, and as someone who valued her life, Marlene was now looking for the one person who understood her…predicament, with Dorcas. She stumbled into the Gryffindor boys dorm at about 4am that night, and had been met with Sirius sitting up on his bed, wiping tears away from his eyes.
“Marls? Shouldn’t you be downstairs?” He sniffed, gesturing for her to sit down next to him.
“I’m an idiot, Sirius” she groaned, laying her head face down in her friends sheets
“I’d like to hear the explanation for this one” Sirius laughed tearily, stroking a hand through the girls now very tatted blonde hair.
“I kissed her, Sirius” she sighed, voice still muffled by the sheets.
Sirius stared back at her, mouth wide open for a few seconds before he responded “No fucking way?”
“I know, I’m such an idiot. She just…you should’ve seen her, Sirius. She looked so….ugh”
“No, im not judging. I mean, that was dumb as fuck” Sirius said hastily “But, I’ve just done the same thing”
Marlene poked her vaguely green face up to stare at her friend “You kissed Dorcas?” She asked “Aren’t you gay?”
Sirius bit back a laugh, shaking his head “Still gay, Marls. I mean, I kissed Remus”
Now it was Marlene’s turn to be speechless. Though keeping her mouth open in her current state, might not have been a good idea.
“I think I’m gonna boke” she said queasily, running to the bathroom. Sirius ran in after her, holding the girls hair back off her face until she was done.
“You’re an idiot” Sirius laughed affectionately, passing Marlene a cold, wet facecloth
“We’re idiots. I can’t believe we managed to get ourselves into the exact same situation” Marlene laughed weakly
“We’re just soulmates, my dear Marlene. Forever bound to the same level of idiocy” Sirius sighed dramatically.
He hopped down off the sink, turning to face Marlene. “You know..” “I hate that face, it’s never a good omen” Marlene laughed
“Hey! All I was gonna say is, since we’re such hopeless romantics. I propose we vow to marry each other if we’re both single by 25.” Sirius said, placing a hand over his heart in mock indignation
“That sounds like the best plan for me at this point” Marlene groaned “Shit, I’m gonna puke again”
