Chapter Seven:
Sirius burst through the door to the dormitory's. 'Empty.' Sighing he back into the stone wall and slide down it, crouching. 'Where could he be? The shrieking shack?' Sirius thought. His heart rate was off the charts, and he was breathing like he had just ran a marathon.
Sirius got to his feet and turned back to the stairs. 'Maybe he's out side.' He was just about to shut the door behind him when a faint noise caught his dog ears. He froze to listen. He heard it again.
He quietly shut the door and walked over by Remus bed and listened. The noise was coming from the bathroom. He walked up to the door and ran his fingers over the wood, then lend forward and pressed his ear up to the door gently. He could just make out someone crying.
He slowly reached for the door handle and gripped the metal handle and turned it, click. The crying stopped. There was movement. He stepped through the door and just caught a glimpse of one of the stall doors closing shut and locking.
He walked pass the sinks and walked up to the stall and stood before it. Sirius thought he knew what he was going to say when he finally got Remus alone. But standing there, he was completely speechless. Nothing would come to mind. He looked like a gaping goldfish out of water.
'Okay,' he thought to himself. 'I'll just start off simple...heck I still don't know what to say for simple.' So he took a deep breath and took a step up to the stall and repeated his movements from before, by pressing his ear up to the door, only he puts his whole body with it.
"Remus," he whispered softly, but knew that the wolf could hear with his ears.
No noise caught his ear this time. It seemed Remus was holding his very breath. Trying his hardest, not to make any noise.
"Remus," he said again. "I know your in there."
Pause
"Please Remus, talk to me," he begged.
When Sirius started to wine like a dog that had been kicked, he heard sobs. Remus had started crying again. It made Sirius want to kick the door in and kiss way the tears. He hated hearing Remus, like this. Was this all his fault? 'I'm I to blame for his tears?'
"I-I'm."
"Yes?" asked Sirius breathy.
"I'm so sorry Sirius."
Sirius froze. 'Sorry? Why was he sorry? He'd done nothing wrong. Wait. Did he regret his feelings for me. Does he hate that he's in love with me? Please let me be wrong. Just thinking about him having those thoughts hurts.' Sirius was about to ask, when he heard the wolf start to speak again.
"I'm sorry. I've tried so hard. I never meant for you to find out. I know you like girls and all, but I couldn't help it. Just as much as I can't force you to love me, I can't force myself to stop loving you. Please forgive me. I've tried," Remus started whimpering.
Sirius closed his eyes slowly. He grabbed for the door frame for support. He's knees felt like they were going to buckle when he heard Remus sweet voice saying those words that he had wished for so many times. He said he couldn't stop loving him. A tear silently fell from his closed eyes and he smiled.

Remus pushed his weight against the door to hear more properly, heart beating fast, stomach tighten, and head spinning, but Remus felt great. It was the best he felt in a long time. It was finally out. He had finally said what he wanted to scream every time Sirius looked at him. He heard the dog breathing hard against the other side of the stall door, but its suddenly stopped.
Remus heart skipped a beat. 'Did he leave? Oh God, please tell me he didn't.' He backed away from the door and was just about to open it to get a small glimpse when the door burst wide open.
Remus backed up into the corner of the stall and put his arms over his head and cried, "Don't hurt me."
Please don't hate me for making this chapter so short. I'll update really really soon to make it up. .
