Remus started his afternoon like he always did, in the front seat of his car, lips pressed firmly against Sirius Black's. There were a few soft 'hey's and some 'how was your day's but mostly it was just lips, and tongues, and heavy breathing.
Sirius used the ball of his thumb to tilt Remus's head up just a little, earning himself a moan. It had become his signature move.
Remus had one hand in Sirius's hair and one on his waist. The hand in his hair was scrunching, and teasing, and pulling. Remus never got tired of playing with Sirius's hair.
They probably could have stayed that way for a few more hours if someone hadn't tapped on the car window. Remus turned meeting James's eyes as he winked and stuck out his tongue. He motioned for Remus to roll down the window.
"What on earth could you possibly want, James?"
"Hey just being a good mom friend over here. I know it's the last day of school, and celebration is in order, BUT you guys still have work today. You and your magical tongue-" Sirius blushed, "Made Sirius late for work last week and he's on thin ice with his boss." James finished his lecture.
"Alright, you tyrant, we're going." Remus rolled up the window and started his car.
"You're welcome!" James shouted through the glass, "You guys wouldn't know what to do without me."
Remus intertwined his fingers with Sirius's as he pulled out of the parking lot. "I know what we'd do a lot more of if he wasn't constantly around." He joked. Sirius blushed but stayed silent.
It was indeed their last day of highschool. Graduation was a week away, and with his hand clasped tightly in Sirius's, Remus felt like he was on top of the world.
He cracked another joke, but Sirius barely laughed.
"Hey," He looked over at his boyfriend. "Are you ok?"
"Yeah." Sirius wouldn't look at him.
"Hey you don't have to tell me what's wrong, but don't lie."
"Rem, we've been dating for a while…" Sirius started, still not looking at Remus.
"Yeah…" Eight months, 2 weeks, and 3 days. Not that Remus had been counting.
"I just-" Sirius stuttered trying to find the words, "I just- I know how things can start to heat up after a while and well…" He paused.
Remus was a bit confused. Did Sirius want to talk about what he thought he wanted to talk about? And if so, why did he sound upset about it.
"Remus, I don't know how to have sex!" Sirius blurted. Remus almost swerved off the road.
"What?" Sirius had withdrawn his hand and was now using it to hide his furiously blushing face.
Suddenly he was talking so fast that Remus almost couldn't understand him.
"It's just that I love you and I want to take things to the next level with you, but I don't know how which is stupid because everyone else our age is doing it and I mean look at you obviously I want to do it too, but nobody in my family gave me the sex talk, like not even the heterosexual sex talk and I don't even use the internet that much so how am I supposed to know how to do regular sex let alone queer sex, and I'm sorry but my knowledge of sex rivals that of a Victorian age woman, I would say Victorian age man but those guys fucked like bunnies and-"
"Woah slow down-" Remus was trying his best to fight back laughter because he didn't want to make Sirius feel bad, but damn he had not been expecting this.
"I just didn't want you to think I didn't like you because all we do is make out."
"Ok, say that sentence again but slower." Remus said, failing to hold back all of his laughter.
Sirius lowered a hand from his face to glare at Remus.
Remus looked at a passing street sign. "Ok we've got like ten more minutes before we get to work. We're going to talk about this. But you've got to sit up and look at me while we do."
Sirius slowly rose from the curled position he had sunk into during his embarrassing confession. Remus held out his hand and Sirius took it, their intertwined fingers resting on the center console once more.
"So we're dealing with Victorian age woman level knowledge huh?" Remus couldn't help but laugh at that analogy. "I'm not a veteran at this either you know." He looked over at the other boy who was still struggling to meet his eyes. "And neither is everyone else. Everyone our age is doing it? I'm pretty sure less than 5% of our senior class has ever seen another person naked."
"Yeah but they at least know what to do once the opportunity arises. It's not like queer sex ed is even a thing in public schools. And I don't know any older gay people. Straight people have someone they can take their questions to. I don't have anybody." Sirius was so embarrassed he was saying these words out loud.
"You're right. Queer sex ed should be a thing. If I have to listen to straight sex ed, something that will literally never affect me, it wouldn't kill the straight population to listen to some gay sex ed."
"But you… know about it?"
"Sirius, I have HIV. I've been given the gay sex talk by every doctor I've visited as soon as my mom leaves the room. You know, just as a precaution. I can recite it for you if you like."
"No!" Sirius recoiled in embarrassment as Remus laughed. "For some reason I don't think the person I'm going to have sex with should be the one giving me the sex talk. I think I'd rather turn to the internet." Finally Sirius was feeling comfortable enough to laugh with Remus at the absurdity of the conversation they were having.
"Haha ok. I mean look at it this way. It's kind of like riding a bike. Sure you can look up how to ride a bike on the internet, but it doesn't really compare to riding one in real life. The first time you do it might not go great, but eventually you get the hang of it. I guess what I'm trying to say is that everyone goes into their first time kind of blind."
Sirius thought for a minute. "You're the bike, right?"
Remus snorted. "Yes, I'm the bike."
The car was quiet for a bit, just the two of them holding hands on the way to work.
"Thank you for talking with me about this." Sirius said softly. Remus looked over at him and smiled.
"Of course. You know you can talk to me about anything, right?"
"Yeah I know."
Remus pulled into the mall parking lot. "Sirius?"
"Yeah?"
"We'll have sex when you're ready, ok?" Remus turned the car off.
Sirius blushed as he hopped out on the passenger side. It was nice to feel supported and know that there was no rush in this but damn this conversation was embarrassing. "I think I'd like to be done talking about this right now."
Remus laughed. "Ok."
They walked into the mall together.
"I can teach you about blow jobs tonight if you want."
"REMUS OH MY GOD"
