Loving him is golden (like daylight)
Summary
Sirius is a college student with friends he adores, and a life he loves. He is figuring out how to reconnect with his estranged brother when he messages a wrong number. Sirius believes in signs, and this is one of those signs. He knows this person is important some how... they just can't figure out how.Remus is a college student trying to overcome the shit life has thrown at him. He is guarded, sarcastic, and struggles to connect with anyone but his closest friends. However when a wrong number texts him, he can't deny that he feels connected to them somehow. An invisible string is pulling them together and Remus thinks, just this once, he may give in and let life give him something good.
Note
I wont lie, this fic doesnt have much in the way of overall plot, its a fun/fluffy fic that I never thought I would even post :/ The focus is on the characters, their connections, and emotions, including the marauders (and girls) friendship and how important it is to all of them!!!! (plus just some general chaotic friend group vibes because we can always use more happiness in this fandom)Updates are random because my writing motivation is also random :)I’m aware the start is a bit clunky, but if u want to, try and stick with it, it gets better :) I like to think i’ve improved as a writer since starting this, so I may rewrite things in the future xTiktok is same username if you want videos when I haven’t updated for a while xx I would also like to state I DO NOT condone JKR’s transphobia and homophobia (or racism) in any shape or form!!!!!

Reggie: A little bit of disowning never hurt anyone.

Sirius: yeah yeah
Sirius: been there, done that, got the emotional trauma

Reggie: It's a small possibility.

Sirius: James is shouting at me to ask you if you want to have dinner later with Effie and Monty at James and I’s flat, is that ok with you?

Reggie: They're your parents, not mine. I don't want to intrude.

Sirius: we all want u there Regulus, its not an intrusion. if u dont wanna go thats fine of course, but the offer is there x

Reggie: I will go for the meal, but I won't stay long after that.

Sirius: that's ok Reg, your boundaries are important, only do what you feel comfortable with.

Reggie: Who let you become so wise?

Sirius: James' emotional wisdom begins to rub off on you over the years.

Reggie: What time is dinner at?

Sirius: seven

Reggie: Ok. I'll be there at seven.

Sirius: perfect, I'll let James know <3

Reggie: Sirius?

Sirius: yeah?

Reggie: What did you mean earlier by, ‘Oh good it’s you’ ?

Sirius: ohhhhhhhh you scared me there for a second!!! just saying my name is so ominous :/
Sirius: I texted the wrong number earlier instead of you

Reggie: How romantic.

Sirius: I thought so too !!!

Reggie: I was being sarcastic.

Sirius: I know but it kind of got me thinking about it, like who knows ?!?? they could be my soulmate and I don’t even know yet?!?

Reggie: I don’t plan to?

Sirius: good
Sirius: see you later <33333333

(17:14)

unknown number: soooooooo

unknown number: you got the wrong number again

unknown number: no I was asking you, mysterious person in my phone

unknown number: you have had nothing better to think about today than a random stranger??

unknown number: we’ll aside from my brothers impending disownment
unknown number: you’re all that’s on my mind ;)

unknown number: your pick up lines need some work

unknown number: I resent your accusations!!
unknown number: I have it on good authority my pick up lines are phenomenal ;)

unknown number: you should recheck your sources 

unknown number: you wound me!! and not in a good way ;)

unknown number: oh so these winky faces are a 'thing' you do?
unknown number: just so you know, that says a lot about you as a person x (and not in a good way)

unknown number: if you mean it says a lot me as an incredibly cool, dashingly handsome and punk rock person, then yes, you are correct x 
unknown number: and your sarcasm says that you appear to be an extremely judgy person

unknown number: I like to start with indifference, leading towards mild annoyance, with people
unknown number: then I am not disappointed if I dont like them, instead just pleasantly surprised if I do

unknown number: ok well thats depressing
unknown number: however I will not be deterred!! it is now my mission to pleasantly surprise you 

unknown number: that is not what I meant, like at all

unknown number: too late!!! no take backs

unknown number: no take backs? are we five?

unknown number: no I just have a slightly concerning need to be beloved by all.... but lets unpack that another time!!!

unknown number: alright, you seem to not be letting this go
unknown number: so you may continue your quest to win me over or whatever
unknown number: whatever helps you sleep at night :)

unknown number: rose quartz, I keep it under my pillow ;)

unknown number: oohhh so you’re a crystal person
unknown number: wait sorry what are your pronouns ?? (if you don’t mind me asking)

unknown number: oh he/they :)
unknown number: and I don’t mind male terms, like guy and things, but gender neutral is good too, either way is fine :)

unknown number: crystal guy^
unknown number: I use he/him pronouns btw :))
unknown number: and you are probably not, but just in case you are magically not cis but homophobic, I’m bisexual so if that’s a problem you can block my number right now

unknown number: don't worry I’m not homophobic :)
unknown number: I am VERY much gay
unknown number: and most of my friends are gay
unknown number: actually I think I don’t have any straight friends ?!?!?

unknown number: you know what, me neither !?!
unknown number: I guess its true that gay people just gravitate towards each other 

unknown number: like our own little solar system :)

unknown number: how poetic 

unknown number: I try my best

unknown number: queer poetry is a growing business in this economy

unknown number: I may have to start. I'll give you a little taste ;) 
unknown number: some of my previous queer inspired works include 'im a slut for iced coffee', 'these little gay men are gonna make me cry' (I was watching good omens)and most notably, 'why is Hozier so cunty?'

unknown number: you may very well be the next literary genius of our generation

unknown number: thank you!!! thats what ive been telling everyone!!!
unknown number: yk what I think i'll put the Hozier one on my gravestone

unknown number: epitaph

unknown number: bless you??

unknown number: no, that’s what the writing on a gravestone is called

unknown number: ohhhhhhhh
unknown number: wait why the fuck do you know that ??

unknown number: I don't know, why DON'T you?

unknown number: you know what
unknown number: I actually can’t argue with that logic

unknown number: thank you ?

unknown number: you’re welcome love ;)
unknown number: now onto my plan of how I’m going to woo you :)
unknown number: I mean the incredible hair and natural charm can only do much
unknown number: are you a fan of flowers ?
unknown number: expensive jewelry ?
unknown number: just cold hard cash ?

unknown number: are you trying to woo me or make me your sugar baby ??

unknown number: however you want to interpret it ;)

unknown number: I mean how great can you’re hair really be ???
unknown number: you’re gonna have to get me A LOT of old, expensive, one of a kind books if you want me to be you’re sugar baby

unknown number: DON'T YOU DARE SAY THAT ABOUT MY HAIR??!!??! WHAT DID THEY EVER DO TO HURT YOU!!??!? ALL THEY DID WAS LOOK GORGEOUS AND AMAZING AND INCREDIBLE ALL THE TIME!!!!

unknown number: you are incredibly dramatic

unknown number: why thank you ;)

unknown number: that wasn’t a compliment?

unknown number: welllll I'm gonna take it as one ;)
unknown number: now new lover/sugar baby

unknown number: lover is ambitious 

unknown number: I said what I said ;)
unknown number: what can I call you instead of ‘unknown number’

unknown number: why do you assume that we’re going to talk again after today??!

unknown number: because my raw sexual magnetism draws everyone in ;)

unknown number: nope
unknown number: try again

unknown number: ehhhh ok, because who doesn't love talking to someone without the pressure of expectations and such, a clean slate, a fresh start, a stranger to vent to (with no judgement) if you need it, and all of that

unknown number: wow that was actually kind of……. poetic, if poetry was really bad 

unknown number: plus I still have to win you over ;)

unknown number: annndddd you ruined your almost poetry

unknown number: anything for you my love;)

unknown number: *rolls eyes*

unknown number: ANYWAY, back to what I was saying!!!!!!!!
unknown number: as much as I love the sexy ring ‘unknown number’ has to it, to succeed at winning you over I feel like I need a name to call you (of course it doesn’t have to be your real name cause stranger danger and all that)

unknown number: how do I know I can trust you ??

unknown number: you can’t
unknown number: but are you willing to take the risk!!!

unknown number: so dramatic
unknown number: ok ehhhh, you can call me Moony

*unknown number changed unknown number’s name to Moony*

unknown number: Moony though ???

Moony: hey no judging, that’s my thing, get your own thing 

unknown number: I have many things, excuse me !!!
unknown number: I’m amazing fun, I have spectacular music taste, I have a shit tolerance so I’m a cheap date because I’m floored after like two drinks ;)

Moony: you’re kind of insufferable

unknown number: why thank you Moony ;)
unknown number: now as for MY name
unknown number: you may call me Padfoot !

*Moony changed unknown number’s name to Padfoot*

Moony: wait…..
Moony: oh my god, youre a furry?

Padfoot: hey if you’re into that ;)

Padfoot: owjehehhebehr
Padfoot: I’m always ‘serious’

Moony: ???

Padfoot: oh right ehhhh
Padfoot : I guess you will understand one day, eventually, it has something to do with my actual name ;)

Moony: you’re assuming that I’m going to like you so much I will eventually want to know your real name ???

Padfoot: please Moonshine, you will only learn my name on the day of our marriage, like a true gentleman

Moony: insufferable

Padfoot: I'm just gonna take that as a compliment ;)

Moony: it really isn’t !!

Padfoot: sorry, are you saying something I can’t hear you??

Moony: we’re texting ???!!!

Padfoot: well then I'm choosing not to read your message :)

Moony: oh my god

Padfoot: I'm actually not god but I can see how you got confused;)

Moony: good lord
Moony: DON'T MAKE ANOTHER JOKE OR ISTG

Padfoot: you swear to me ;)

Moony: that’s it
Moony: I'm leaving

Padfoot: NO MOONY MY LOVE DON'T GO

Moony: well I actually have work now so I do have to leave

Padfoot: WAIT QUICK!!!!
Padfoot: before you go describe your appearance in very brief detail so I know how to picture you!!

Moony: this isn’t a weird sexting attempt is it ??

Padfoot: GOD NO!!

Moony: mhmm
Moony: talk to me tmw and we will see if I think you’re a sexual predator or not :)

Padfoot: wowwwww
Padfoot: you think so highly of me !!

Moony: yep :)

Padfoot: ugh fineeee :(
Padfoot: talk to you tomorrow Moony ;)

 

 

(20 mins later)

Padfoot: hehhehehehhee
Padfoot: come

Moony: oh for fucks sake

Padfoot: noooooo Moonyyyy I’m sorrryy :’(
Padfoot: tell meeeee

Moony: I'm tall, have brown curly, green eyes and freckles and…
Moony: ehhh that’s it really

Padfoot: ok but how tall?!?

Moony: like 6’3 I think?!?

 

Padfoot: I have a thing for tall guys so you're in luck 
Padfoot: I myself am stunningly handsome, have shoulder length glossy black hair that falls in effortless waves, grey eyes (but not a dull grey like a startling grey!!) and I'm usually adorned in a leather jacket and some assortment of rings and necklaces

Padfoot: and 5’11 if height matters for you ;)

Moony: I strive to have your self confidence

Padfoot: that is such a backhanded compliment
Padfoot: BUT I’ll take it !! :)

Moony: it wasn’t meant to be, I swear !!!
Moony: I’m honestly jealous, most people aren’t confident

Padfoot: well I figured I spent so much time hating myself might as well love myself now

Moony: your poetry is getting better!

Padfoot: maybe I should rediscover my career path ??
Padfoot: poetry could be my new calling

Moony: as much as I would truly love to go on this self discovery journey with you
Moony: I REALLY have to go to work now !!

Padfoot: ugh fine
Padfoot: it’s obvious you don't love me!!! just go *starts weeping*

Moony: again… leaving

Padfoot: BYE MY LOVE UNTIL LATER

Moony: insufferable

Padfoot: ;)

(moonflower supremacy)

Lilyflower: So what ever happened with that wrong number that texted you?? x
Lilyflower: Did they manage to find who they were looking for !?x

Moony: they did !!
Moony: but we actually ended up talking anyway :)

Lilyflower: TO A STRANGER ON THE INTERNET??!!
Lily flower: THEY COULD TRY TO STEAL INFORMATION FROM YOU REMUS
Lilyflower: YOU GUYS BECOME FRIENDS, SHARE SECRETS, AND THEN THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW YOUR CREDIT CARD IS MAXED OUT AND YOUR IDENTITY IS STOLEN!!!!

Moony: calm down MUM, it’s not like I gave them my name or anything
Moony: and I would have to have a credit card to max out in the first place???!!
Moony: we just ended up chatting a bit, he seemed nice, a bit arrogant but not in an annoying way??

Moony: he flirts like a lloottt but I feel like they do that with everyone
Moony: he also likes astrology and crystals
Moony: omg they would love Dorcas and Marls so much

Lilyflower: You seem to know A LOT about them?!x

Moony: yeah well we talked a good bit

Lilyflower: *narrows eyes in suspiciousness*

Moony: *avoids eye contact confusedly*

Lilyflower: Remus

Moony: Lily??

Lilyflower: You hate talking to new people, you have in fact said on many occasions ‘small talk is a form of fresh hell I didn't sign up for’
Lilyflower: It took me a year to finally break you and be your friend!!?! x
Lilyflower: AND you hate all arrogant people that flirt??

Moony: I don't hate everyone??!! and we just got on well that’s all, we will probably never talk again anyway, so it’s fine
Moony: and I don’t know, they were easy to talk to, probably because it was texting and not actual human contact
Moony: *shivers in disdain at the thought*

Lilyflower: Hhmmmmm ok, if you say so x

Moony: I do say so

Lilyflower: Okkkk
Lilyflower: Oh Marlene is here to study, I’ll talk to you later love <3

Moony: talk to you later Lils <3

(disowned black brothers)

Sirius: so what should we name the chat?

Reggie: What do you mean, it has a name?

Sirius: YOU HAVE GOT TO BE SHITTING ME !!!!!!?!?

Reggie: Was this meant for mysterious soulmate guy?

Sirius: yes !!!
Sirius: for fucks sake I cannot figure out why my phone won’t work ?!

Reggie: Well you can only drop it down so many flights of stairs before it stops working.

Sirius: true
Sirius: ok I'm getting a new phone tomorrow

Reggie: Ok.

Sirius: I love how excited you are for me x

Reggie: Yep. x

 

 

(13:01)
(Da Boyyyzzzz 🥶😩😈)

Effiesfav: I’m getting a new phone tmw !!!!

ProngsIsKing: finally !!!!
ProngsIsKing: I really thought you were going to get a new one when you dropped it into the lake :/

Effiesfav: it was fine !!?!? it dried didn't it!!

ProngsIsKing: so why the change of heart ?

Effiesfav: because if I try and text Moony it just sends a text to Regulus instead

ProngsIsKing: who?

Effiesfav: Moony??!!!

ProngsIsKing: I'm going to repeat, who?

Effiesfav: the guy I started talking to yesterday when I got Reggie’s number wrong (which I didn’t ?!??, my phone is just brokennnn)

ProngsIsKing: ohhhhhh right
ProngsIsKing: strange motivation for a new phone but I’m just glad you’re getting a new one :)

Effiesfav: I’ve been putting it off for so long
Effiesfav: I guess I don’t really want to get rid of the first thing I bought with money that was actually mine, not my families or anything, and I worked for it myself

ProngsIsKing: you know just because you’re gonna buy your new phone with Alphard’s money doesn’t make it your ‘families’
ProngsIsKing: he was disowned long before you were, and the money he left you he earned himself, after he left your ‘family’
ProngsIsKing: AND just because you can’t work anymore doesn’t make you like your family either !!
ProngsIsKing: your mental health is much more important than a job, and maintaining your old job and getting your degree just wasn’t going to happen
ProngsIsKing: you made the right choice Pads x
ProngsIsKing: and I’m really proud of you for getting a new phone x

Effiesfav: James Potter, I really fucking love you <3

ProngsIsKing: I’ve already invited Peter for dinner and comfort cuddles tonight :)

Effiesfav: brb sobbing on the floor in Primark

ProngsIsKing: you’re so strange x

Effiesfav: I LOVE YOU !!!!

ProngsIsKing: I LOVE YOU TOOOOO <3333
