"I love you!" Sirius happily announces.
Remus smiles. "I love you too, in a totally platonic way!" Both boys laugh.
Then Remus turns away, distracted by another voice, and Sirius feels like throwing up. Love, love, love… Is that it? Is that the only thing Sirius gets to feel, even though he'd rather hate, or cry, or scream, or rip his own hair out?!
No, Sirius knows that if had to do with Moony, he'd love it. Even if it was the girl Sirius caught him staring at when Remus thought no one was looking. Secretly, Sirius would love her, because Remus did.
He'd love it all, even if it hurt. Because every time he saw Remus, he smiled. Even his NAME made him smile.
He loved it all, he loves it all…
And he'll never tell anyone.
