Chapter 2 (Day 1)
Remus nervously waited at the Gryffindor table down at breakfast for one Sirius Black and James Potter to appear.
When they did, Remus tried to busy himself with toast but was very distracted when Sirius slipped into the seat next to him and slung an arm around his shoulders.
"Sirius?" He asked out of the corner of his mouth.
"Play along." Sirius murmured back. Peter was giving them a strange look and Sirius merely gave him a cheesy grin before pouring Remus some tea and downing his mug of pumpkin juice.
Remus was glad when Sirius restrained himself from showing any public shows of affection towards him, the only sign of the bet was the extra touches and glances throughout the day.
After dinner that night, the four Marauder's were on their way back up to the tower when Sirius pushed Remus into a broom cupboard and smiled broadly at him. "Coming out." He whispered and let Remus settle down on an up turned bucket to wait for what Sirius deemed 'The Broom Cupboard Snogging Session' to end.
Sirius undid his tie and slung it round his neck, he painstakingly messed up his hair and rumpled up his shirt, undoing a few extra buttons.
He then smiled predatorily and ordered Remus to do the same. Remus cocked his head to a side and then did as he was told, deciding to collar Sirius about it later.
Sirius grabbed Remus hand, threading their fingers together. "Play along." Was all he said before they fell out of the room, breathing heavily.
Sirius started laughing and Remus reluctantly followed suit and laughed along with Sirius, wondering what the animagus was up to and what on earth they were laughing at.
A high pitched squeal caught their attention. They turned to find the leaders of Sirius' fan club stood glaring at them, Maria and Jess.
Remus smiled sweetly before slipping an arm around Sirius' waist and leaning up to say quite clearly in his ear, "Let's go and finish of somewhere else darling."
Sirius smiled too, catching on and nodded his consent before slipping a hand into Remus back pocket and steering them away from the fuming fan girls.
They waited until the were safely concealed behind a tapestry and then they burst out laughing.
"You knew they were there didn't you?" Remus asked accusingly, once they had both calmed down.
Sirius nodded before laughing again. "Don't worry my dear little Moony, I had it all planned out."
Remus caught Sirius' gaze and felt his stomach flutter but quickly dismissed the feeling as nerves.
They walked back up to Gryffindor Tower, their hands linked and their minds elsewhere.
When they entered the Common Room, they found it deserted all except for James, Lily and Peter.
They approached them and Lily squealed in delight when she saw the linked hands saying "I knew it would happen one day!"
James grinned, glad his plan was working but Peter sat back in his chair, a troubled look playing across his face.
Remus sat down on the sofa and soon Sirius was laid across his knee, Lily and James started kissing and Peter looked apprehensively at Sirius and Remus, as if unsure they would too.
Without any warning, Sirius sat up in one swift movement and brought his face close to Remus', as though to kiss him and slid a hand up his thigh.
They briefly registered Peter falling off his chair in shock and rushing from the room leaving them to it.
Remus and Sirius burst out laughing again, and Sirius sat back though his hand stayed on Remus' leg muttering something along the lines of 'Peter a homophobe.'
They sat for a little while longer in the dying glow of the fire before trudging wearily up the stairs and into the dormitory.
They got changed and Remus was just about to slip into his bed when Sirius called softly, "What do you think you're doing my dear little werewolf? Get your arse over here now."
Remus sighed before slipping in besides Sirius. "You're my boyfriend now, it seems more realistic if we share a bed." Sirius explained briefly before placing his arms around Remus and pulling the young werewolf to him.
Remus felt strangely peaceful lying there in Sirius arms and sleep soon found him.
However, it was not so easy for Sirius.
He felt warm and content but his heart was alive and beating madly, his stomach churning and his mouth dry. He had fancied the werewolf for ages now and having him as his 'boyfriend' was not easy on him.
He longed to be able to kiss Remus and call him his own without having to do it because of a stupid bet that was only going to last a week.
Sirius sighed, his fingers slipping over Remus hot skin and his palms grew sweaty.
What he wouldn't give for this to be real.
Bit of a short chapter that.
