Rational:

Sirius stared up at the ceiling, aware that he was moping. It was four months since his moron idea nearly landed Remus in Azkaban. He rolled over and buried his face in the pillow, heaving a sigh.

"Sirius?" The voice was hesitant and strained. And familiar. Slowly, Sirius sat up and kept his eyes on the floor.

"Remus." He stopped apologizing after Remus had lunged for him a month ago. Anguish flitted through Remus as he carefully analyzed Sirius. He was thinner, paler, and there were shadows under his eyes, which he kept lowered submissively. Unable to take it, Remus loped forward and kneeled in front of Sirius.

"Sirius," he sighed, leaning forward and lightly knocking shoulders with him. "Siri, Siri, Siri. You aren't supposed to starve yourself, Padfoot." Hope bloomed in Sirius and he looked up quickly. "I forgive you, you great daft mutt," Remus said wryly. Hope and gratitude flared up in Sirius' twilight eyes, and the oversized puppy lunged forward, tackling Remus in a hug. As they wrestling playfully, Sirius repeatedly apologized. Remus straddled Sirius, pinning his wrists down. "Forget it Pads. I've forgiven you," he whispered. The two canines were inches apart. Sirius pressed his face in Remus' neck, feeling the dog in him start to take over.

"Moony. Remmie, I'll never forget and I'll never forgive myself. But Gods, I'm glad we're talking again," he said heavily. Remus and Sirius locked eyes, and then they were rolling on the floor again-only this time, they were kissing. Half of Remus' mind was wondering why on earth he was enjoying the kiss, let alone the fact that he was kissing sodding Sirius Padfoot Orion Black, WOMANIZER OF HOGWARTS. The other half was extensively turned on by his best friend. Half of Sirius' mind was wondering why on earth he was kissing Remus, when the boy had just forgiven him. The other half was yearning for more, let alone that this was his best guy friend, Remus Moony John Lupin, werewolf, and supposed-to-be STRAIGHT. Finally, both gave up on being rational. They broke away when James stormed in.

"Evans just told me to 'be rational-we'll never be together!'" he yelled, seemingly oblivious to the fact that his two best straight friends who'd been ignoring each other for the past four months were now tangled together on the floor, grinning. "Be rational! The nerve!" he yelped. Sirius and Remus kissed lightly before saying together,

"Being rational is overrated, Prongs."
