Drabble: Private Correspondence

I couldn't resist writing another one for [livejournal.com profile] sirius_remus100.

Title: Private Correspondence
Author: mysid
Prompt: privacy
Word Count: 100
Rating: G

James knows he shouldn't read Sirius's letters from Remus. He doesn't understand why he shouldn't read them; Remus is his friend too. But he knows that Sirius doesn't want them read. Sirius reads portions aloud to James—but only portions. If James tries to read one over Sirius's shoulder, Sirius quickly folds it and tucks it in his pocket. Sirius keeps the old letters—who keeps old letters?—in a box under his bed.

If he really didn't want me to read them, he would hide them better, James justifies as he opens the box and chooses one to unfold.

You know this is begging for a follow up, don't you?

Poor James - he'll regret being nosy.

Yes, yes he will.
