Chapter 4: The Most Awkward Confession

"What's meant to be will always find a way."

Six months passed since our boys shared that awkward hug. Both went on missions for the Order of the Phoenix, Sirius begun his training to be an Auror and Remus found a job in a muggle CD shop. Sirius had gone out with a lot of girls in this time, something Remus wasn't very pleased about. Remus had a quick date with a beautiful muggle girl, who also worked on the CD shop, and Sirius was biting himself of jealousy that time. Noting of the most importance happened in the war on these six months, but a lot happened between Padfoot and Moony.

Both boys got distant from each other. One, accepting the new feeling for his best mate, and the other for fear of accidentally showing them again (like running his hand through his crush's hair while hugging him). Both dreamed about the other, and had to place Silencing Spells on them to not wake the other and have them wondering why the hell he was moaning his name in his sleep. Sometimes one caught the other staring at them and looked away shyly, and awkward silences became common between them, as if eight years of friendship never existed.

But it was even harder for Remus. This January it was the fifteenth anniversary of the day he was bitten, at May fifteenth, 1965. And as the day approached, his wolfish senses were getting higher. The wolf wanted Sirius, and Remus had to control himself even more often to not take the boy into a corner and snog him senseless. Not that Padfoot would complain, but, anyway, now they were sitting at the living room, Remus reading a book, Sirius playing with his fingers, none of them sure of what to say. Finally, Remus closed the book and took a deep breath.

"Sirius, do you know what day is today?"

Sirius, happy that his friend was talking to him again, snapped out of his trance and looked at the werewolf.

"May the fifteenth. Why?"

"It's that… I guess I never told you guys about this…" He shifted in the couch, uncomfortable "Today is the fifteenth anniversary of the day I was bitten"

Sirius, suddenly forgetting about the tension between them, stood up and went to his friend's side, to comfort him. "I'm sorry, mate. You should have told us sooner. We would have helped you. Do you need something? Chocolate? Water? Soda?"

The werewolf smiled weakly at him "Thank you, Padfoot, but I'm all right." Sirius smiled at the mention of his nickname, which wasn't used by him for a long time. "It's worse when it's on a full moon, like at 1968, 73 and 76. Those were horrible. But I'm fine today, tonight's a New moon."

"So, what do you want me to do? Throw a party or something?"

Remus chuckled. He had missed Sirius' antics. "I don't know, but you could spoil me a little. Like, cooking an special lunch for me and feeding me with the spoon"

"You sound like a total baby, you know?" Sirius tried to sound annoyed, but couldn't help a smile on his lips. He was glad they were back to normal.

I wish I was your baby. "Oh, but, Padfoot, if you don't take care properly of me I might break! I'm feeling soooooo weak…" He faked a cough to prove his point.

Sirius rolled his eyes but still smiled. "Okay, I'll do your favorite food, spaghetti, all right? Could you turn the radio on? This silence is freaking me out! Let's listen to some music!"

Remus chuckled again and turned the radio on, putting at 102.2, the Jazz station, who happened to be his favorite kind of music. The music "Unforgettable", by Michael Buble was playing. Suddenly, memories of his parents dancing to this music came through his mind. They were so in love, dancing like there were no tomorrow, no problems, no worries, just each other. At some point he started to picture him and Sirius doing the same. That idea was so appealing, he couldn't tame Moony. He was under Moony's control. And the wolf wanted just one thing.

Sirius.

With an impressive speed, he flew to the kitchen, where Sirius was cutting the tomatoes and cooking the pasta, distracted by the music. He didn't sense Remus coming and was more than surprised when Remus appeared behind him and took his hand.

Unforgettable, that's what you are.

"Remus, wha-" The boy couldn't finish his sentence because Remus kissed his hand, looking at him with intensity, and made Sirius blush like mad and be in a loss of words. Remus took advantage of his confusion and dragged him to the living room.

Unforgettable though near or far.

"Moony, what are do-" Sirius started to protest, but Remus placed a finger in his lips, sounding for him to shut up, then caressed his cheek and put the other hand on his waist.

Like a song of love that clings to me

"Moony…" Sirius put his hand in Remus waist too, and Remus begun to move with him, with still that intense gaze.

How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more

Remus took Sirius' left hand and pulled him closer. Sirius rested his head in Remus' neck, dancing the steps he learned in childhood.

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay.
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable to .

Remus spun Sirius at the floor and threw him backwards before kissing the region over his heart. Sirius was more than surprised: He didn't know the werewolf could dance so well.

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay.

Remus touched his forehead with Sirius' and started to whisper the last lines:

"That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too."

The music ended, but they stayed that way, before Remus closed the distance between them and their lips touched.

It was just a touch of lips, but it sent chills over the both boys. When Remus' tongue asked for passage, Sirius conceded. And with Remus' hand on the animagus' waist, and Sirius' hand tangling on the werewolf's hair, everything seemed to fit.

They kissed for God-knows-how-long, but when they broke the kiss they looked happier than ever. Sirius leaned close in Remus' embrace, and the latter kissed the top of his head and breathed on him.

Oh, Merlin, that's the best scent ever, I can't believe I really kissed Sirius, if that's what heaven's like, I want to die and-

Wait.

I KISSED SIRIUS!

And as the realization came, the despair took over his mind and he pushed his loved one away, blushing like mad and really wanting to die now.

Sirius was even more confused now. Why had Remus pushed him away? Didn't he love him? But everything, the dance, the kiss… it felt so true to him… What was going on? "Moony…"

"I'm sorry. I-I don't know what came over me, I-I-I'm sorry, I…" Remus was unable to articulate words due his embarrassment. Deciding he couldn't spend a minute more in Sirius' presence, he grabbed his coat and ran away while mumbling apologies, leaving the other boy in a state of shock, with his fingers pressed against his lips, savoring his crush's flavor, lost in a track of thoughts.

Author's Note: Well… I'm sorry that it took me so much long to update, but to be sincere, it was because I kinda lost my interest for Wolfstar for a while, and I started tenth grade at a new school, so much more work… But I know these aren't proper reasons, so I just hope you accept my apologies and have enjoyed the chapter. I don't know when I'm going to update next, but I promise to do it ASAP.
