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!!!!!

(we love Taylor)

Moony: I love old music
Moony: like the vibes are so good
Moony: like if someone told me I had nine minutes to live I would spend 8 minutes and 36 seconds of that listening to american pie
Moony: that song scratches an itch in my brain I can’t even explainnn
Moony: I know all the words and will always put my whole entire soul into that song every time it comes on
Moony: and that high note on ‘rhythm and blues’!!!
Moony: But then I would also want to listen to Taylor in my last moments !!! And Bowie !!! Oh god this is hard :/

Moony: why hellooo Padfoot :)

Padfoot: did you miss me, did you miss me,

Moony: oh so very very much Padfoot, truly my heart ached while you were gone

Padfoot: I know you’re being sarcastic but I'm just gonna pretend ;)
Padfoot: sorry I haven’t been able to talk :’(
Padfoot: but taking care of a person with another person inside them is A LOT of work
Padfoot: butttt we’re in the car on the way home now

Moony: HA don’t worry I had guessed
Moony: how was your stay with Andy ??

Padfoot: we kinda just watched aloottttt of gilmore girls and ate ice cream
Padfoot: I also discovered I'm a Lorelei kinnie

Moony: how did you come to that conclusion?

Padfoot: well she left home at 15
Padfoot: I left home at 15
Padfoot: she’s addicted to coffee
Padfoot: I'm addicted to coffee
Padfoot: she doesn’t get along with her mother
Padfoot: my mother is the devil’s fiery ass crack

Moony: Wow, your language is really …… descriptive
Moony: thank you for that lovely visual

Padfoot: you’re ever so welcome Moony ;)

Moony: how were things with Reggie?!

Padfoot: actually really good thank you, we talked alotttt and talked with Andy too, you know the whole family trauma, disowned by your parents thing we tend to bond over that

Moony: Padfoot, you know I wish I could take all that pain away from you
Moony: no one deserves that, especially you

Padfoot: oh
Padfoot: thank you Moony :)

Moony: of course Pads

Padfoot: WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME ?!??

Moony: oh fuck
Moony: I didn’t mean too!!! it just like slipped out
Moony: you call me so many nicknames I don’t know it just

Padfoot: I LOVE ITTTTTTTT

Moony: oh
Moony: good :)

Padfoot: I mean Prongs and Wormy call me Pads sometimes so I have heard it before

Moony: damn I’m not even original :/

Padfoot: butttttt I like it much more when you say it ;)

*5 mins later*

Moony: insufferable

Padfoot: has my flirting finally managed to render you speechless ?!?!??

Moony: NO!
Moony: I was just
Moony: yk just

Padfoot: justtttttttt

Moony: Oh shut up !!

Padfoot: but I’m having so much fun :’(

Moony: tough >:(

Padfoot: ughhhh fineeee
Padfoot: let’s talk about ………
Padfoot: I dunno???
Padfoot: oh I do!!!!
Padfoot: the moon!!!!!!!

Moony: the moon??

Padfoot: Andy and I were just talking about it so it’s fresh in my mind

Moony: fair enough
Moony: So what are we talking about regarding the moon?

Padfoot: ohhhhh regarding
Padfoot: how fancy

Moony: well I am an English Lit student, sometimes it just slips out :/

Padfoot: for the sake of our friendship I’m not gonna make a joke about something slipping out
Padfoot: soooo Andy and I were just talking about the moon
Padfoot: and like how interesting it is

Moony: that is true
Moony: any particular reason you were talking about the moon?

Padfoot: oh yeah!!
Padfoot: Andy lives near the beach in between Cornwall and St. Ives
Padfoot: and it was the full moon while I was there and the high tide was crazy high!!!!
Padfoot: And then we were saying that if the moon's gravitational pull can affect a body of liquid as large as the ocean, it has to have some sort of effect on the liquids in our bodies !!

Moony: I mean it is pretty interesting to think about
Moony: my mum actually did part of her nursing training in a psych hospital and she said that on the full moon they would always make sure there was extra beds available
Moony: because there was a surge of people being admitted

Padfoot: WAIT REALLY?!?!?

Moony: mhmm it’s not like a written rule or anything
Moony: just a thing people ‘know’

Padfoot: that is insane
Padfoot: anddd like werewolf and mermaid myths
Padfoot: that all has to come from somewhere
Padfoot: that some people were affected by the full moon they just didn’t really know why

Moony: ohhh look at you

Padfoot: I have put a lot of thought into this
Padfoot: I always had more of an interest in the moon than the stars
Padfoot: I guess because it was something that was close to the stars, but it was far enough away that I didn’t feel connected to my family when learning about it

Moony: mhmm I like that
Moony: although I much prefer stargazing over moon watching (is that the word?!?)

Padfoot: awwww Moony you gaze at me ;)

Moony: that is not
Moony: no
Moony: let’s just go back to your moon thing

Padfoot: jsjsbsbsneenndndn ok
Padfoot: ANNDDDDD people who have gone mad are also called ‘lunatics’
Padfoot: like LUNA!!!!
Padfoot: it means moon

Moony: HA
Moony: now this is a joke about MY name

Padfoot: huh?

Moony: guess you will just have to find out on our wedding day ;)
Moony: but kind of like your family have lots of astronomical names, my family has lots lunar names
Moony: not that it was intentional though
Moony: but it is very ironic

Padfoot: Moony this is the second time you have brought up our upcoming nuptials!!!!
Padfoot: I'm very excited;)

Moony: ……
Moony: I was making fun of you but sure :/

Padfoot: you keep telling yourself that Moonshine!!!
Padfoot: now for completely unrelated reasons, what is your favorite flavour of cake and favorite flowers that would make a good bouquet

Moony: I’m scared that tomorrow I’m going to walk out of my flat and you’re just going to be there with a chocolate cake… and like a wedding

Padfoot: AHA it is chocolate
Padfoot: I thought so, you do give chocolate vibes

Moony: chocolate can cure everything

Padfoot: I’m not sure your mother, the nurse, would agree??

Moony: yeah but I like chocolate:’(
Moony: it’s the only thing that brings me joy
Moony: bar Lily, Minnie, school, reading, Taylor Swift and Conan Gray

Padfoot: Moony I think that’s the most positive things you’ve ever said in one sentence ?!?!?

Moony: it was kinda traumatic:/

Padfoot: jshshsbhdhdhdbbdbdbd
Padfoot: you shouldnebbjdjuuuhbssm

Moony: huh?

Padfoot: Hello Moony. This is Regulus. Despite his constant denial otherwise, my brother gets very car sick when they go on their phone. So for the sake of Jame’s car I have confiscated his phone before he can get sick everywhere.
Padfoot: Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

Moony: that’s fine!
Moony: tell Padfoot I’ll talk to them later

Padfoot: Ok.

Moony: bye?

Padfoot: Goodbye.

Padfoot: I dunno not now, I just wouldn’t be opposed to it in the future

Moony: yeah me neither :)

Padfoot: well then

Moony: well then

Padfoot: what do I say now?

Moony: you’re asking the wrong person
Moony: social interaction is one of my main downfalls

Padfoot: and here I was thinking you were perfect at everything :/

Moony: I can’t believe you don’t think I’m perfect anymore :(
Moony: and all because of a mental illness I can’t control :’(
Moony: I knew you were evil

Padfoot: no I didn’t
Padfoot: you’re twisting my words !!!
Padfoot: I didn’t mean that you were
Padfoot: ugggggghhhh

Moony: hehehehhehe
Moony: oh how I do enjoy winding you up

Padfoot: HA

Moony: yeah that sounded a LOT less sexual in my mind :/

Padfoot: :(

Moony: why sad faces??

Padfoot: because innuendo makes me giggle
Padfoot: and I need a new ring

Moony: ……… a new ring?

Padfoot: yessss Moony a new ring
Padfoot: the one I wear on my middle finger just isn’t the vibe anymore
Padfoot: I need a new one :/

Moony: how is this relevant to anything we were talking about??

Padfoot: I dunno but it’s what we’re talking about now!!!

Moony: what kind of ring do you want?

Padfoot: just like a thickish silver band, maybe with something on it?
Padfoot: I'm not sure
Padfoot: OMG I KNOW!!!!!

Moony: oh pray tell

Padfoot: (your sarcasm still isn’t appreciated)
Padfoot: I'LL GET THE MOON PHASES ENGRAVED ON IT!!!!!
Padfoot: So every time I see it I will think, ‘I wonder how Moony is doing, maybe I’ll text him?’

Moony: soooo basically you getting a new ring will result in me talking to you MORE than I already do

Padfoot: IT'S PERFECT!!!!

Moony: not like me :(
Moony: because I have social anxiety :/

Padfoot: THAT IS NOT WHAT I MEANT!!!!

Moony: jwnebebbebbebrbrbr
Moony: on that note
Moony: goodnight Padfoot

Padfoot: you're leaving :(

Moony: yep :)

Padfoot: ugh
Padfoot: fine
Padfoot: goodnight :(
