some time later
SOME TIME LATER…
Their hands fit together perfectly.
It was like their hands had been sculpted from the same mold, specifically for the reason of fitting together forever. In the months they had been apart they had been pieces of a puzzle missing their other half. And now they were back together, they were complete.
Their arms swung between them as Sirius walked with a small skip in his step, feeling particularly fortunate to be the other half of Remus.
The two boys were on their way back from the grocer’s with the list of snacks and drinks that James had given them. When they reached Sirius’ building, Remus held back, making Sirius turn to face him. Remus used his hand that was still holding Sirius’ to pull Sirius into him. He placed gentle hands on Sirius’ jaw and kissed him lightly, the type of kiss that never failed to make Sirius’ body explode with goose pimples.
“Do you know what today is?”
Sirius, still dizzy from the kiss and unable to form a full sentence, shook his head.
“Two years ago today we met for the first time.”
Sirius smiled widely at him, placed his hands firmly on his hips, and pulled Remus into a much more heated kiss than the previous.
When they finally walked into Sirius’ flat, his own private one now, seeing as James had moved into his own place with Lily almost immediately after their getaway during the summer holiday, they found that all of their friends were already there waiting for the pair to return.
“I really need to get someone in here to take care of all the vermin.” Sirius joked and he placed the groceries on the coffee table in front of James.
“Oh, piss off. You love us.” James said fondly as he rummaged through the bags.
“You're right! I do!” Sirius kissed the top of James’ head.
As much as Sirius and Remus enjoyed the presence of their friends, there was something about tonight that made them wish that they were the only two people on the planet so that it could truly just be the two of them. They kept mostly to themselves through the night, always holding onto each other and placing prompt kisses to each other's faces and lips when no one was watching.
Eventually all of the friends had left to go back to their respective homes and partners, leaving the two boys alone…finally.
Sirius crashed down against his sofa with a loud sigh. Remus smirked as he turned on some music to play quietly in the background. He then made his way over to Sirius, who was laying on his back on the couch looking up at Remus with sly, suggestive eyes. Sirius adjusted so that Remus could comfortably sit on his abdomen.
Remus took a hold of Sirius’ hands, that had been down by his side, with his own and pinned them above his head, leaning down to kiss Sirius deeply.
Sirius’ responded instantly, kissing him hard and pressing his body into Remus as much as he could, causing them both to let out soft moans.
“You know how hard it was for me to not pull you into the bathroom for a quickie while all of our friends sat out here.” Sirius whispered seductively into Remus’ ear as the latter began kissing and sucking against his neck.
Remus paused his torment against Sirius’ soft skin to respond, his words coming out as a groan more than anything else, “I wish you would have.”
Sirius’ slipped his hands underneath Remus’ shirt, running his fingers along the taut muscles of his back.
Remus was still kissing his neck, slowly making his way down to his collar bones and toward his chest, “Fuck, you're so perfect, Sirius.”
Sirius removed his hands from Remus’ skin and cupped his face, bringing Remus up to look at him. They stared into each other's eyes for a long moment; admiring each other and non verbally communicating to each other just how much love they had for the other.
Both of their eyes began to prick up in tears from the sincerity of it all. Sirius pressed up and kissed Remus’ forehead ever so gently, “You're so beautiful, Rey.”
Remus smiled and let out a small laugh. He pulled back to look down at the entirety of Sirius’ face; admiring his beauty and thanking the stars that someone as perfect and gentle as Sirius Black wanted him, and only him, “How do you always know the right thing to say to me?”
Sirius grinned, a bit of devilry hidden in the shadows of it, “Two years of practice, Love.”
Remus smiled widely, and instead of continuing his kissing to Sirius’ skin, he shifted and laid down next to him, burying himself into his side and placing his nose against his neck.
In immediate response, Sirius wrapped him arms around Remus, holding him close and placing a loving kiss to his hair, “I Love You.”
“I Love You, too.”
