Love confession gone wrong? Right? I don’t know.
Sirius doesn’t know why the world has decided to punish him recently, as he sat there watching the third person this week succeed in asking their crush on a dare. It’s as if the universe had enough of his pinning and was rubbing it in his face. He rolled his eyes sighing as his mind drifted back to the centre of all his affections. Remus John Lupin. Or as Sirius would often write in his note book Remus John Moony black-lupin. But Sirius decided that’s a bit more of a mouthful.
Sirius bit his lip as his mind replayed moments of Remus, one where he’s dozing off his arm trying desperately to support his head overtop a book. His curls scuffed and fluffy, his amber eyes heavy lidded drifting shut slowly. His mind jumped to another moment where Remus was chewing on a sugar quill his plum pink lips wrapped around it, eye brows draw together seemingly deep in thought not even realising he was driving Sirius insane as he shifted trying causally to cover up the tenting in his trousers.
His brain now jumping to his favourite moment, where Remus laid out close to Sirius, body’s pressed softly together. Remus’ breathing evened out in deep sleep. His lashes splayed over his freckled cheeks, a delicate smile resting over his lips. As Remus’ arm wound itself tightly around Sirius providing a protective barrier against Sirius’ nightmare. In a soft quiet voice Sirius whispered three words to the boy before him “I love you.”
He snapped out of his dream like visions when a voice broke out in a squeal. “Of course I’ll go out with you Frank.” Alice Fortescue, and Frank longbottom. Of course. Fuck it. Sirius thought. He stood up making his way to the dorm room in search of the map and furthermore Remus Moony Lupin.
Opening the door Sirius was faced with a very sweaty Peter doing “push-ups” or attempting them at least. Sirius didn’t have time to question it he simply went straight to looking for the map in all the usual placed. Panting Peter stopped his workout in favour or questioning Sirius. “Mate what are you doing?”
“I need the map, I’m gonna ask Moony out.” Sirius continued his search.
“Finally, does this mean you’ll stop all the pining?” Sirius didn’t answer, because in reality. If Remus agrees to go out with Sirius, he won’t only pine more for the boy who returned his affections but he will also snog him senseless anywhere he possibly can. However if Remus didn’t feel the same Sirius will mope helplessly probably dragging Peter and James to madness. “Oh and James took the map earlier something about finding Evans.”
“Shit okay, I guess I’m doing it the old fashioned way. Bye Pete wish me luck.” Sirius waved kinda and left, as peter called out good luck.
Sirius tried to think how Remus would, and he decided on the library since Remus was a lovely little nerd. He scoured the library from top to bottom and no Remus.
Next he searched the great hall which didn’t take long considering it’s all open planned. No Remus.
He then went to the classroom in which Remus taught study lessons to the younger years, even though Sirius knew one wasn’t on right now. He was running out of options. No Remus.
Sirius then decided to check the quidditch stands, he was gasping for breath when he reached the top, and still no Remus.
Sirius almost called it quits deciding maybe this is the universe sending him a sign this is a bad idea, but then an idea popped into his head. The astronomy tower! Sirius ran there, looking down corridors as he went just in case.
As Sirius reached the top few steps a mop of floppy curls appeared, flowing slightly in the wind. A blanket wrapped tightly around the tall figure which when sat on the floor cured into himself didn’t look quiet so large. Sirius stood watching for a while as the boy stared up at the sky, eyes darting between different stars, his teeth gnawing away at his lip.
“Moony?” He said softly, the boy in question turned. A small smile breaking out across his face. Sirius took that as a sign to walk over and sit next to Remus. They sat in silence for a while staring up at the sky when Sirius began to shiver Remus scooted closer tossing the blanket over Sirius’ shoulders huddling close. I’m response Sirius placed his head on Remus’ shoulder.
They stayed like this for about an hour when a loud gasp was heard behind them, turning they saw a very annoyed looking James staring at Sirius “I’m happy you finally got the balls to ask Remus out, but you told Peter before me! What the hell Sirius.”
That is how wolfstar came to be.
