He knows this; that means all is as it should be. He is arrogant (not unduly so, he thinks), but he is also handsome and brilliant and has no trouble attracting a crowd of admirers wherever he goes.
And that is why, he realizes, it hurts so much when James leaves him for Lily. They were best friends - always together, always up to no good. The number one place in James' life belonged to him, to Sirius - and then some red-headed little tramp had come and taken it away.
He tries very hard not to be bitter.
And perhaps that is why he went to Remus: that introverted, insecure werewolf with warm eyes and scars that went past his skin. He'd always been grateful to them for accepting his "furry little problem"; Sirius has no problem allowing him to show that gratitude.
In fact, he thinks, as Remus pulls at his hair and bites down hard on his shoulder, he'd gotten it wrong. He didn't need James; perhaps Remus had been his favorite all along.
Harry Potter, Remus/Sirius, favorite
