Author's Note: Hard part starts from here. After this chapter there is a thing I'm going to change, hopefully it won't take long.

About 6 pm Remus entered his apartment, taking his shoes off just after he got in. He sighed, walking to the kitchen to grab something to eat. He stared at the fridge for a while after deciding on eating the Chinese food he ordered two days ago. He didn't bother to warm it and he finished it with couple of bites.

He went out of the kitchen, taking his shirt and pants off. He heard the thud of his phone as he threw his pants on the floor but he just didn't give two craps about it. He spotted a chocolate bar while he was walking to his room lazily. He sighed again, feeling too tired to bother himself to take a few more steps to grab it, so he ignored the chocolate.

He took the bigger luggage out of the closet and started to fill it with his clothes, only leaving couple of them, just the ones he would use later. When he was done with the clothes, he went to the other room to grab his books, movies and play station games. He wondered if he should bring PS3 to Sirius' house, as he didn't own one.

He walked to the hall to pick his pants from the floor and found his phone in a second. He texted Sirius about it and got a reply in literally thirty seconds.

"Why are you even asking?" it said. Remus smiled, trying to zip the luggage up. He dragged the luggage to the hall and this time he didn't ignore the chocolate and walked over to the sofa. He grabbed it excitedly, only to find out that it had already been eaten. He cursed heatedly and threw the package on the floor, grumbling.

His mood was still down, tripping over the luggage just added to it. "Fuck!" he screamed, kicking it hard and a second later, he was on the floor, holding his foot to ease the pain.

After he calmed down, he laid down on the floor and reminded himself to be reasonable. He stood up again, grabbed his car's and house's keys to carry it to the car, so it wouldn't occupy a place.

Hours passed quickly and when Remus checked the time, it was 10 pm, and he was exhausted from everything. So he ate a bag of chips while watching TV, brushed his teeth and then slept like a baby until his alarm woke him up rudely in the morning.

"Sirius!" Remus called, waving his hand. Sirius stopped and waited patiently Remus to catch up with him. he was out of breath as he literally sprinted all the way to Sirius and Sirius chuckled because Remus was pressing his hand down to his chest was a sight to see.

"Good thing you're tall." he breathed out.

Sirius put his hand to Remus' back to show that it was okay that they were waiting him to get himself together. He tried not to think much about the muscles underneath his hand and also tried not to grope him. "Is that so?"

"I needed to talk to you, and how would it be possible if I didn't see you in all these people?" he said, much more clearly.

"We have the same class, dude." Sirius reminded.

"Yes, but this is urgent. I didn't see you in previous classes."

Sirius scratched the back of his head absentmindedly. "Yeah, I couldn't make it."

"Why?" he asked, and wanted to smack himself across the face right away.

"I overslept." he explained as he covered his mouth with the back of his hand, yawning.

"Couldn't get much sleep, I reckon." he urged him to say more.

Sirius smirked mischievously, "True."

Remus rolled his eyes disturbed, "Congrats!" he said sarcastically, wishing some bird to shit on Sirius' head.

Sirius cooed, patting Remus' head sympathetically, or he tried to make it look like that. "Just because you are stuck with your hand these days, doesn't mean we are too." he teased.

He ignored his comment, he still wasn't pleased. "Who was it?" he said, frown still apparent on his face.

"Someone I met last night. I don't even have their number, probably won't see them ever again." he shrugged.

Remus noticed how Sirius wasn't stating a gender, and Tonks' words echoed in his mind. He wasn't going to ask him here, he would tell him when he is ready. Right?

"I hope you don't catch HIV." he tried to act casual.

Sirius smirked again, "Don't worry, I'm always careful."

"Great." Remus grumbled, luckily Sirius didn't hear it.

Halfway through the class, Sirius poked Isco with his elbow. "You were going to say something?"

"What?" Remus said eyes blurry with sleep.

"Before you got jealous that I'm having sex you…" he started but Remus cut off.

"I wasn't jealous. God, you are so arrogant." he grizzled but his voice was playful. "I want to drop a luggage to your house if that's okay with you too."

"Sure." Sirius replied. "Well actually, I'm having lunch with my family. But I'm going to stop by the house for just five minutes. So I can't look after you when you're dealing with unpacking."

"I don't need you to look after me." Remus sighed. How someone looking so good turn out to be this annoying?

Sirius smirked again, and all of a sudden, Remus realised, he used to be the teasing one not too long ago, now the tables were turned and he wasn't sure if he was really annoyed with it.

Remus was singing loudly off the key, and Sirius was laughing at his friend while they tried to carry all three bags at a time and they called the elevator, also having a quick fight to get in first.

"You didn't bring too many stuff." Sirius commented.

"Yeah, I don't know. I have few things left but they'll fit in my backpack I guess."

It ringed when they reached Sirius' floor. They dragged the bags and Sirius was trying to open the door with one hand as he was pulling one of the bags up.

Remus sighed relieved as the door opened and they managed to get them all in. He followed Sirius to his new room. He left the room after he put it on floor, telling Remus, "I'm going to take a quick shower. Do you want to come with me too?"

Remus hesitated, wanting to meet Remus family but also not wanting to make it awkward. "I don't know. Won't they be uncomfortable?"

"I don't know if my mom is coming. Me and her are not on good terms but others are fine." he said shrugging and leaving immediately, not waiting for a reply.

"Okay then." Remus mumbled to himself, checking his appearance in mirror and desperately trying to fix his hair.

Sirius really got out of the shower in five minutes and caught him struggling with his hair. He laughed in a low voice, "You look good. And you don't need to worry, they don't have high standards of my friends' appearances."

"Are you calling me ugly?" Remus asked fake shocked.

Sirius laughed again, a lot quieter this time. "I wouldn't dare."

They were laughing when they stepped in the restaurant. Sirius' parents and sister watched them without any knowledge of this guy because Sirius hadn't told them that he'd take a friend with him. Though they doubted this boy is just a friend.

Sirius smirked at her sister, winking and nodded curtly at his parents, while the boy with him smiled politely and exchanged greetings, getting uncomfortable under his mother's piercing gaze.

"This is Remus I told you about earlier, mother." he explained with a formal voice and his mother made an understanding sound, still not showing any kind of feelings. Remus eyed the woman discreetly, wondering why she was acting so cold towards her own son.

Sirius' mother, Walburga, cleared her throat. "So Remus, I heard you were moving in with my son."

Remus tried not to snort or raise his eyebrows at the woman. He saw Sirius grinning that he wasn't the one to be questioned. "Yes, that's right." he confirmed.

She continued. "I'm really glad that Sirius finally found a friend to stay with him. His night life was starting to get out of control. He always said that being alone made him go out. A friend who would stop him embarrassing us would be amazing." she said, eyes burning into Sirius' forehead. Sirius was finally looking angry and he interjected. "I think we could all agree that I don't have to answer your question about my life or what do I do with my money."

Walburga tilted her chin, a scornful smile on her thin lips. "It doesn't surprise me to hear speak like this, Sirius. Suits you well enough."

"Let's not blame it all on me, Mother. I think you wouldn't want to argue in front of other people."

Marta laughed uncomfortably, clearly she was the one to smooth things between mother and son. "Let's not scare Remus with our daily arguments." she said jokingly.

Their father laughed forcefully not offering his opinions. He was looking down, not turning his eyes away from the menu even for a second.

"Remus, tell us about yourself." Walburga asked him, with that cold, knowing smile Sirius wore when he talked to someone he wants to strangle.

Remus laughed awkwardly at first but then started to introduce himself to get his shit together because he was acting like a troublemaker teen talking to his headmaster. "Well, I came to London for university and I had always lived in Liverpool before I came here." he said, hoping that they wouldn't ask anything further than that.

But of course they did. "Do you have siblings?" Marta asked while pouring down the red wine to her glass, much to her mother's despise.

"Yeah, I have a younger brother."

Marta made a gagging sound. "We are miserable of the same thing. I feel you." she said shaking her head sympathetically.

"Please shut up." Sirius grumbled. "You're embarrassing yourself."

"But guess who is engaged and who is not?" she suddenly changed the topic, wiggling her hand in front of Sirius' face and Sirius let a high pitched scream.

"You're fucking with me right?" he cried out, eyes wide open with joy.

"Not at all." she grinned and with that, they were up and hugging the shit out of each other. Sirius put his hands on his sister's shoulders and drew back a little to look at her face. "Does that mean he has to put up with your annoying ass until he dies?"

Remus rolled his eyes at his friend, because he always needed to ruin the moment. Marta smacked him across the cheek softly, "Shut up, fool. Go find yourself…" she started to speak but then Sirius had his hand on her mouth, shutting her up. "Don't finish that sentence." he threatened, and Marta's eyes were open with shock but she didn't seem angry, while Walburga looked alert and his father continued ignoring them.

"Sorry." she mumbled and Remus was dying to know what she was about to say but the waiter came to take their orders at that moment so it was forgotten soon.

The three of them talked as they waited for their food to arrive and Remus couldn't help but find himself getting a little relieved that this wasn't his family. He could totally understand why Sirius dragged him with him. They obviously cared a lot about strangers' thoughts that they had to leave Sirius alone, just reprimanding him when he cursed excessively.

He refused the second glass of wine because he had to be at work at 3 pm. Marta shook her head like she was amazed. "He is too smart for you Sirius."

"And your fiancée is too good looking for you but am I saying anything about it, huh?" he countered back.

"So you're comparing my fiancée and Remus, is there something I need to know Sirius?" she asked with her mouth open like she was shocked. His parents glared at her, his mom's face becoming redder with passing seconds.

Sirius groaned and hid his face in his face. "Shup up Marta, please shut the fuck up."

Then he straightened up quickly and checked his watch. "Oh my god, it's 2.30. I can't believe we are making Remus late for work." he literally screamed and stood up, pulling Remus up with him.

Marta was giggling at her brother and their parents just watched them indifferently like it they were trying too hard not to show that they were relieved they were leaving. They stood up to say goodbye to Remus and his father gives him a quick, manly handshake, still not looking at his face while his mother kissed him on both cheeks before smiling at him fake and Remus did everything to tilt his lips upwards. At least with Marta, it wasn't awkward and she just pulled out her fist for Remus to bump it with his own and Remus laughed at that but he did as he was expected anyways.

"Watch out for my brother's ass, okay?" she smirked and Remus heard Sirius gasp. He was pulling him to go out immediately but Remus freed his arm from his grip.

"I'll do." he assured Marta, grinning.

Marta looked like she was about to suffocate and she coughed a little. She took a deep breath before she spoke again. "Just don't get too distracted."

Remus looked at her blankly but Sirius was so freaked out, face pale with horror. He groaned miserably and took Remus' hand in his. He hissed quietly to his sister, "I'll murder you in your sleep bitch."

He led him to Remus' car without looking back and when Remus turned to them to wink at Marta, she saw his mother was gone and his father was drinking the rest of his wine in one gulp.

They were silent for a while. "Your sister is lovely." Remus said genuinely.

Sirus remained silent for a minute and Remus wondered if he even heard him. But then he spoke up, "She is." His voice was soft, and somehow proud.

Remus added, "Too many gay jokes though." and Sirius banged his head to the window, mumbling meaninglessly.
