Plot; Sirius Black has a nightmare and there's only one person in the room he wants to share it with. Just a little fluffy One Shot :)

This could expand however, Sirius and Remus could spend loads of nights together from First to Seventh year, so just let me know if I should continue :)

Based in their first year at Hogwarts.


Sirius awoke quickly sweating and breathing deeply, how on earth could his eleven year old brain imagine such terrors. Sirius sat up in his bed quivering; he then looked around the familiar yet unfamiliar settings. Hogwarts had indeed been his home for two maybe three months tops but it still wasn't completely his home.

He pulled on the curtains surrounding his bed; he poked his head out and scanned the three sleeping Marauders. James was gone, you couldn't wake him, he slept like he was dead, he'd left his curtains open and had only up to his waist covered by the blanket.

Then there was Peter who was snoozing away with no care in the world, he left the curtains at the foot of his bed but not the sides therefore Sirius had a clear view of Peter snoozing away.

Then there was Remus, who looked content, he looked so angelic when he slept it was unbelievable he was just on his side one arm out the covers and he had a VERY welcoming space beside him.

Sirius sniffed, wiping his nose with his forearm then he climbed out of his bed. He padded over to his friends bed, he slowly pulled back the side curtains then pulled the blanket down slightly trying his hardest not to wake the sleeping boy before him.

He however failed and awoke the boy, Sirius worried instantly and stood at the boys bedside fiddling with the sleeves of his pyjama top.

"Padfoot?" The boy asked in a yawn and a bit confused (Naturally)

"I'm so sorry I woke you up Moony" Sirius whispered "But I suppose you like the night eh MOON-y" he punned, a joke to lighten the mood however it was followed with an incredulous stare from Remus.

"Are you sleep walking?" Remus asked hopefully, Sirius sighed and shook his head "Why are you at my bedside?" he queried.

"I…" Sirius began "…I had a bad dream" Sirius said then looked down in embarrassment and began playing with the hem of his pyjama top.

"Oh" Remus replied sitting up "Do you want to talk about it?" Remus offered, Sirius shrugged quite child-like. "I won't laugh at you" Remus said knowing full well that was what Sirius was worried about, Sirius looked up at Remus then nodded.

Remus smiled at him then knelt up, he crawled to the end of his bed and closed the curtains then hinted Sirius to sit on his bed, he casted a silence charm on the bed so James or Peter couldn't hear then got under his blanket.

"You can come and sit beside me – you know" Remus said with a warm smile. Sirius nodded and took up the offer shuffling beside Remus and getting under the cover "So what was your dream about?" Remus asked. Sirius gulped reliving it, then looked at Remus' amber eyes, so soft-coloured and warm looking.

"I was at home – my family…" he took a deep breath "…My family disowned me because I got put in Gryffindor, they casted the Cruciatus curse on me…" he gulped "…I ran to James' but he didn't want to have anything to do with me, nor did you or Peter so I got left out, on the street" a single tear trickled down his cheek. "It felt so real, I thought it was real" Sirius said in-between sobs; Remus who was caught off guard by the sudden image of his sobbing friend didn't let it show, he circled an arm around Sirius pulling him close and comforting him.

"It was only a dream Sirius, all of it, we'd never abandon you" Remus smoothed, Sirius looked up.

"If I got kicked out – you'd be there?"

"Of course! I'll always be there for you Padfoot, I'll never leave you" Remus said then planted a chaste kiss on Sirius' forehead.

"Thank you Remus" Sirius whispered, Remus smiled softly and remained hugging Sirius until both boys fell asleep.
