Heartbeat
Your heart thuds in your chest and you wonder whether the whole room can hear it. They must be able to; it's so loud.

It beats that staccato beat constantly; that profession of love in two syllables and two names. It beats for your thoughts and your emotions and your reason – it beats for him.
It beats for his freckles –Remus – and it beats for his mischief – Moony – and it beats for his smile – Remus – and really it just beats for him.
You catch his eye. You smile. He smiles back. You think that if anyone will be able to hear it, it's him.
