“I don’t know what to say Sirius” Rabastan was still smiling at him, that had to be a good thing…right?
“Well I do know what I want to say but that’s a lot to unpack.” Rabastan stood up slowly “Thank you for telling me how you feel.”
Sirius' brain was running a mile a minute and nothing was making sense. He opened his mouth only to close it again.
Rabastan laughed slightly and Sirius was lost. What was happening?
“I don’t have a fiancé, she’s actually just my friend and she has a girlfriend. We’re going to go on a double date with them at some point actually. But more about that later. First things first.” Rabastan walked over to him slowly.
“At some point while we were not-dating I fell for you as well Sirius Black, I’d really like to actually date you if at all possible. But you won’t answer my owls” Sirius felt frozen.
Next thing Sirius knew, Rabastan had one hand cupping the back of his head and was leaning down, he had his other hand on the small of Sirius’ back and he pulled him closer. He lingered for a few moments as if asking permission and Sirius nodded. He felt Rabastan’s lip brush against his once, twice…feather light and then completely overtook them. Sirius’ arms reached up and went around Rabastan’s neck as he went totally pliant beneath his lips, he wouldn’t have been able to resist if he tried. The kiss was like nothing he had ever experienced before. It felt like fireworks but it also felt like home. It was everything good and significant at once. The kiss went on forever, but also ended much too quickly.
Rabastan pulled back slowly “Please look at me,” Rabastan requested softly.
Sirius slowly blinked his eyes open. "Wow” he breathed out like an idiot
“Yes, wow,” Rabastan said, kissing Sirius again softly. “I felt it too.”
He nuzzled against Sirius’ jaw gently. “Do you think you’ll be able to find the time to go to dinner with me on Saturday? I think we have a lot to talk about”
Sirius answered him with another kiss, he knew he was blushing.
"yes, I think I’ll be able to make it happen”
three weeks later at Sirius’ flat
“I think that had to be my favorite meal we’ve had so far,” Sirius sighed as he laid his head down on his pillow and turned to Rabastan. This was the first time he’d asked Rabastan to sleep over, he was both excited and nervous. They’d originally decided to take this slow but every time he felt Rabastan’s big strong hands on him as they kissed goodnight he felt his resolve waver.
Rabastan leaned over and kissed him gently. “You are so beautiful” he kissed him again and then sat up on his knees “Look at you Sirius, straight out of my fantasies…I have a feeling you’re about to be my favorite meal,”
Sirius licked his lips and suddenly felt all his clothes vanish, ‘wandless magic’ he thought to himself as he shuddered. “lift your hips for me darling.” Rabastan whispered gently as he slid a pillow under Sirius and then pushed his legs further into his chest “I am a starved man, and you look absolutely delicious”
