All I Need ; Sirius Black, PG-13 (328 words) -- requested by

Sirius watches Diana, a fellow Gryffindor, walk past him, her hips swaying from side to side with each step. He can feel a pair of inquisitive green eyes watching him as Evans hesitantly curls into James' side. Last night Sirius heard them having a row about him (of all things) and he figures that's why they're acting so odd today.
"He seems so lonely."
"He's fine. Just needs a good shag. After that, he'll be back to his usual activities soon, including asking you for help with Potions."
"James! He needs to find someone, something more than that. Remus has Dorcas, you have me, and Peter's off doing his own thing. He doesn't have anyone to lean on in that way during all of this. I'm worried about him."
"He's fine, Lily. He's my best mate. I'd know if something was wrong. And Sirius is not the relationship-kind of guy. He doesn't want anything that resembles it."
"I think we should set him up with someone. I mean, he can be an obnoxious git, but his intentions are good - sometimes - and all the girls think he looks like a 'sex god'. I don't see why he doesn't already have--"
"You think he looks like a 'sex god'? Well, why don't you just go shag him then? It'll cheer him right up and I'll just wait in the Common Room until you're finished!"
"Honestly, James! Don't be so dramatic! I just meant--"
"I know exactly what you meant!"
The sad thing for Sirius is most of the things they said last night are true, even if neither of them know it. He is lonely, he does need something more than a good shag (even though he doesn't want anything more than that), all of the girls do think he looks like a 'sex god' (Evans explained the Muggle term to him in sixth year when he heard Victoria whisper it in his ear during Transfiguration class), and a shag with Evans really would cheer him up.
