“Tu es un idiot.” Sirius exclaimed across the room at Remus. He had followed after him when Remus stormed into their dorm, slamming the door behind him but forgetting to lock it.
“I don’t know what the fuck you just said, but I heard ‘idiot’, so maybe explain?!” Remus yelled back even louder.
“I said you’re stupid!” Sirius explained, carefully closing and locking the door behind him.
“Why the fuck is that?!” Remus stared at him as if he had told Remus that Bowie died of something stupid like liver cancer.
“Toi, Remus Lupin, tu es l'homme le plus stupide de la planète. Tu penses que je t'abandonnerais pour sortir avec Mary?!? Je veux dire, elle est géniale et tout... mais personne n'est comparable à toi, Moony.”
’You, Remus Lupin, are the stupidest man on the planet. Thinking I would ditch you to go on a date with Mary?!? I mean, shes great and all- but, no one compares with you, Moony’
Just under 20 minutes ago Remus had been waiting in The Three Broomsticks for Sirius, who was 10 minutes late. Remus had asked him if he wanted to go together, and was more than surprised when he said yes. Lily and him had talked all night about it, fussing over what to wear and how to talk to Sirius.
But when Sirius didn’t show up, Remus started to get nervous and decided to walk around Hogsmeade to go look for him. When he found him in a jewelry store with Mary, it’s clear to say that he was not thrilled.
”I HAVE NO FUCKING CLUE WHAT YOU ARE SAYING!”
Sirius walked over to Remus, placing his hands on his shoulders and talking to him at eye-level.
”Je t’aime.”
’I love you.’
”You know what!?” Remus jumped backwards, throwing Sirius’s hands off his shoulders as he started to angrily pack his things, tears welling up in his eyes. Sirius just smiled warmly, watching him but not getting any closer.
”Fine. Be an arse.” He was shoving some of his clothes into a trunk that he pulled out from under his bed, but before he could finish Sirius dragged his jaw up, pulling him into a short kiss. When he pulled away Remus stared up at him with starry eyes, which were undeniably asking a question.
”I said I love you, idiot.”
Remus shut him up with another kiss.
”Woah.” Sirius and Remus looked up at the door to see a pissed James, and a equally drunk Regulus who was trying to hide behind him.
”Carry on, Carry on. Me and Reg will find somewhere else to go.” That earned him a hard slap on the shoulder from Regulus and a look that could cut through bone, but nevertheless James just giggled and dragged him somewhere else. Although they were no longer visible to James and Regulus, James had left the door open so if Sirius and Remus continued there was a large possibility that another couple could walk in on them.
They separated, Remus speeding for the door and then eventually down the stairs. Sirius couldn’t tell if he was upset, but he did not regret doing any of it.
On the way to The Three Broomsticks he saw these gorgeous earrings in the window of a jewelry store, and immediately thought of Remus. He figured that he was normally late for everything, and that showing up with a gift would make up for it, so he went inside. The earrings did not match, one being a crescent moon, which Sirius figured Remus would like, and the other a simple star. He met Mary on the line checking out, and Remus had just come in at the wrong time.
He put the earrings on Remus’s bed, kicking his half-packed trunk back under it.
Remus busted in the door again, smiling ear to-ear, grabbing Sirius’s wrist and dragging him down into the Gryffindor common room. Sirius followed compliantly, not knowing what the hell Remus was doing.
”Everyone!” They were both standing infront of the grand fireplace, with Peter, Lily, Marlene, Mary, Regulus, and (assuming he was done shagging Reg) James, all of them sitting on the floor/multiple sofa’s. James was sitting on the floor with an electric guitar in his lap, which was plugged into and amp that was plugged into some outlet behind some bookshelf.
The bookshelf that Remus had gotten knocked into when him and Peter were wrestling in 2nd year. The guitar that Regulus had etched his entails into along with a heart that encircled them. The armchair Mary was sitting on, was the same one Marlene spilled her guts on after she got pissed for the first time.
This very room, with these people was the one they’ve spent their best memories in, and Remus was about to make another.
Remus pulled Sirius by the collar toward him, swinging him down and kissing him flat on the lips. Everyone was shocked (well, not really.), followed by a roar of clapping and shouting in support. James, who was still slightly drunk, discreetly kissed Regulus quickly on the cheek, to which he scowled but couldn’t help but smile.
Marlene walked over to the piano, starting to play “Lady Stardust” While James eventually joined in on his guitar.
Life was really good. I mean, all you need is Bowie and a couple of really good people, and you’re set. Lucky for Remus and Sirius, they had more than a couple.
