letters - marauders
————————-<3———————-
After a couple of years of Remus and Sirius dating, Remus introduced him to Hope, his mum. Before, she knew that they were very close for friends, but not without their little arguments here and there. By their seventh year everything was going smoothly, they had just finished exams and everyone was certain that they got good marks.
That was when Remus got the letter. It was a typical Saturday morning and the weekend before they broke up for the summer. The hall was buzzing with excitement and discussing holiday plans with others. The room was filled with the warm smell of freshly baked bread and burnt toast. The four friends had just sat down when the mail swooped in through the top window and landed next to their respected receivers. Today Remus wasn't expecting anything, it was usually later on in the evening that he got letter from his Mam, due to her working hours and such. He didn't mind, So it was a surprise when the familiar brown owl 'Rocket' landed in front of his plate.
Remus carefully untied the letter around the owls leg as Rocket helped himself to some extra food on Remus' plate.
Helo cariad,
We weren't planning anything this summer, so why don't you ask Sirius if he wants to spend the summer with us down in wales? I don't mind and we wont have anyone else over. If you could send Rocket back with a response as soon as you get this, that would be brilliant.
Caru mam
By the end of the letter he was beaming from ear to ear, who knew that his mum would want Sirius to spend the entire summer with them? Remus could hardly contain his excitement as he turned to his boyfriend next to him, currently wolfing down a Nutella covered piece of toast.
Sirius, feeling eyes on him, turned to his right, joy coursing through his veins at how happy his boyfriend was. Whatever it was didn't matter, as long as Remus was happy, Sirius was happy.
"Good mail?" The dark haired wizard spoke through his food, as the mousy brown nodded.
"Sirius, would you like to spend the summer down in wales with me?" Sirius almost choked on his food, "Pardon?"
"My mam's just offered to have you over the summer, but only if you want to that is, I wouldn't want to force you of course-"
"Yes! Yes I'd love to spend the summer with you!" Sirius wrapped his arms around his boyfriend, practically squeezing the life out of him. Remus was buzzing with happiness at the thought of spending the whole summer down in his hometown with his boyfriend. He could show him the places that he used to go as a kid, he could show him his room, and the first thing he would wake up to was not Sirius' letters, but his face. And of course, that Sirius Black smile.

On Monday, both boys were practically glowing, knowing that they get to spend all summer with each other was a dream come true. As they got off the train, Remus looked around to spot his mam's face in the large crowd. Keeping a steady grip on Sirius' hand they wiggled their way through the crowd towards one of the walls. They stayed there for a moment, just enjoying each others company until Sirius points out a woman in the crowd.
"That's her isn't it?" Remus looks to the direction that he's pointing in and sure enough there she was, short mousy brown hair, green jumper and brown trousers. she was looking around desperately until she spotted the two boys, a large, welcoming smile plastered across her face.

The first few days went by in a haze. It was all unpacking and food and unpacking and more food, slipping some kisses here and there. Remus and his mam would have conversations in welsh which Sirius could barely understand. But late at night Sirius would say sentences in French to Remus, and laugh when he got flustered. Remus took him to all the places he could think of, and he would have dinner with Hope in the evening.
One morning, whilst they were basking in the early rays of the summer sun, Sirius snuggled closer to the warmth of Remus' body.
"You know what?" he started, staring up at the peaceful image of his boyfriends face.
"What?" Remus replied, eyes still closed, still on the bridge between sleep and consciousness. The smell of fresh sheets and pollen wafted through the open window, letting in a cool breeze from the hot weather.
Sirius shifted, so that his nose aligned perfectly with his boyfriends. " I think that this has got to be the best summer of my life"
Remus laughed, it was deep and croaky, Sirius liked it.
"Don't let James hear you say that, he spent months planning last years camping trip" Sirius ginned, that Sirius black grin.
"James can snuff it, I'm spending a month in wales with my boyfriend" Remus grinned back at him "And his mam" "Ha, yeah..." He sobered a little "Do you think Hope likes me?"
Remus made a face, "Sirius what? You've known my mum for years" Sirius nodded "Yes but as your friend, not like this" He said. Gesturing between them, where he lay hand in hand with Remus, his head now resting against the taller ones chest.
"Are you joking?" Remus laughed and sat up suddenly, shouting, "Mam!" "What are you doing?" "Yes cariad?" Hope stood in the doorway, smiling down at the boys as Sirius blushed furiously.
"Sirius wants to know if you like him any differently now that he's my boyfriend?"
Hope chuckled. "Oh sweetheart, haven't you always been?"
Sirius smiled, that Sirius black smile.
