“Hey remember that night?” He asked, jumping from the window into my room. “How the fuck did you get in here??” I grunted, seemingly because he woke me up. “I climbed through the window.” He replied, pointing with his thumbs at the now closed window. “Okay okay, but why?” I questioned, he just looked at me and smiled. “Do you remember that night?”he repeated, not answering my question. I sighed, “no I don’t, what night?” I asked with a yawn. I was tired, since I had just woke up. He started slowly speaking. “We went for a drive.. “ “2:30 in the morning” “I kissed you…” he spoke, slowly walking closer to me. I could see the sadness lingering in his eyes. “it was pouring” “We held each other tight before the night was over” he replied. “You looked over your shoulder” He was Standing in front of me, looking into my glossy brown eyes. “Do you remember that night?” I wanted to tell him there and then, why I couldn’t face him, but I was ashamed. “Yes…I remember that night.” I replied, looking away once more. He grabs my chin to make me look at him. “Would you want to give it a try again?” He asked, insisting we go on a drive. I hummed in response. We were in the car now, I was looking out into the darkness of the streets as we zoomed past everything. ‘Top five, The night We Met by Lord Huron’ I looked at him, this was our song, I wonders if he remembers, but to my surprise he was already looking at me. “It’s our song.” He mentioned, humming along softly. I looked back at the window, memories started flooding my head. “Why did you come back?” I suddenly asked, causing the boy to tense up. ‘I am not the only traveler Who has not repaid his debt’ “I honestly…don’t know.” He shortly replied, still staring at the road. “Oh…ok” I replied, tears threatening to fall. We came to a stop. It was the same place as that night, there was the tree, and the bench. He brought us here- why? We stayed in the car this time. The music still playing in the background. “Why did you leave me back then pads?” I sniffled. Tears still threatening to break free but I never let them fall, not while in front of him. We just sat there, no reply. Just quite, so I continued. “We were doing so well together, and then you left…the same night.” He was looking out the window. “I was fine after a few months, why come back now?” I questioned, emotions lingering in my tone. ‘I had all and then most of you Some and now none of you..’ He was shaking, probably trying to stop from crying. “Remus…you don’t understand…” he uttered, still staring out the window. It was pretty dark in the car, so I couldn’t see him that well, but I can slightly feel him shaking. “Why do you say that? All I did was love you, I gave you everything!” I spat. “I could see the way you were hiding something from me, I could feel how much pain I was giving you. I- I couldn’t stand hurting you anymore, I couldn’t let my family be the reason you were unhappy.”He cried. I sat there shocked. How could he say that.. “What hurt me the most…was that night..” I retorted. Letting the tears fall. It was quite again. All that made noise was the radio. Still playing our song. ‘When you had not touched me yet… Oh take me back to the night we met’ “So why come now?” ‘I had all and then most of you Some and now none of you’ “I couldn’t stay away any longer..” he replied, with a shaky breath. “But..you left me..” I breathed, looking towards his broken figure. “i regret it, I regret it all, all these years, for the 5 years I was gone, I wanted nothing more than to apologize to you. I truly never meant to hurt you, because….you…you Remus Lupin…you were my one.” He whispered, turning to me, finally looking at me. I forgot what it felt like to be seen by him, the way his eyes sparkled in the night, the way his salted tears fell every so often. His voice. Oh how I loved it. I could admit I missed him…but it doesn’t cover up how much I was pained by him. All the nights I cried, how I couldn’t move on, how much I wanted to reach out. It hurts. “I-“ I tried to speak but all that came out was a sob. The song was finished by now, all that could be heard in the car was sniffles and sobs. The pain I had thought I got over came flooding back. I got out of the car..and ran to the other side, opened the door and threw myself at him. I was hurting but I couldn’t stop myself. “Moony…I’m sorry..” he said soft, playing with my hair as we hugged. He remembered. We just stood there for awhile. I was in his arms again. The feelings I felt in that moment were confusing, but I couldn’t help but miss this. “…I missed you.” I said, closing my eyes. Why did I say that. I hate him. I hate how he made me feel, I hate how he ruined the image of love for me. I hate how I couldn’t move on. I hate how I can’t hate him at all. “I’ve missed you too moony.” He said, hugging me tighter. I looked up, into his eyes, they were shining in the starlight, he was looking up, but I could tell he was tired. “What…what if we tried…again…cause….you were…my one too.” He was looking at me now. Eyes glistening with dried tears. “You want…to try again?” I thought about it for a second. “Yes…although you hurt me, I can’t stop myself from loving you. You are my soulmate….we knew that since we were 11.” I stated. He just chuckled. “Soulmates.” We were back in the car again. There was no music, but I could tell we both said what needed to be said. “I love you Pads” “I love you, my Moony” I didn’t think this night was going to go like this, but I’ve missed him. I couldn’t bare losing my soulmate. My other half. This was the start…of our new beginning.
