The Beast Within
Remus sat unmoving on his bed, thick woolen covers hiding every bit of his bare flesh. Tomorrow night was the full moon, and he wanted nothing to do with anyone. He could feel the wolf blood racing through his veins, waiting for the rush of dominance.
With heightened vision, Remus looked over the scars of last month. They were just beginning to fade. Maybe this time I'll remember where they came from... Remus thought to himself as he lightly touched one of the more prominent marks, a long gash that caressed his cheek from ear to mouth. Questions about the suddenly appearing blemish were dismissed with the excuse of a miscast spell.
Remus heard the sound of the door creaking open, then clicking shut, muffled by the heavy blankets. Soft footsteps padded up to the side of the bed. Remus didn't move, hoping the trespasser would leave him be, until a cold, wet nose touched his bare foot and made him jump. The covers were thrown from his head, and Remus's gaze fell upon the figure of Sirius. He was wearing his shaggy black coat, the open front exposing fading Azkaban tattoos on his bare chest. A wicked grin played across his masculine features , and there was a twinkle in his eye that made Remus's heart skip a beat.
"I can smell the animal in you, Moony..." Sirius's voice was low, almost seductive. "It's almost time, isn't it?"
"Tomorrow night." Remus stared out the window, the light of the nearly full moon providing the only illumination in the small room.
Sirius unbuttoned his coat, the silver light revealing what Remus already knew to be true. He let the coat slip from his shoulders, landing silently on the chilly floor. Remus felt his blood rise as his eyes traveled over every tattoo and scar that graced the man's body.
"Wouldn't want to waste any of those raging animal instincts." Sirius growled, the twinkle in his eye growing brighter as he leaned closer to Remus. In one swift movement the covers were swept off of the bed ad Remus was pushed backwards into the pillow.
Remus wove his fingers into Sirius's dark hair and pulled him into a fierce kiss that rendered them both breathless.
"Let's see if we can't make the moon rise a little early." Sirius smirked, nibbling playfully on Remus's ear before moving down to the exposed neck underneath. Remus let out a puppy-sized howl and groped around for the discarded blanket, throwing it over the two of them. He could be sure of where this moon's scars came from.
