Fairy Dance

Remus looked at the other male as he was dragged trough the dark halls of Hogwarts. The stone floor felt cool under his bare feet. The sound of their foot steps echoing throughout the hallway. He was currently wearing Sirius' blue pyjamas blouse, while Sirius was wearing the matching pants. It was far past their bedtime, not that Sirius would ever care about such a thing. Rules were meant to be bend, if not broken. Sirius opened the door out to the school grounds and bathed them in the moonlight.

The moon was high on the night sky while all the stars was shinning brightly, and not a single cloud was to be seen. It was a beautiful night. Sirius sighed peacefully, taking in the breathtaking sight as they walked hand in hand. He turned his head to face the brunette who smiled sheepishly, brushing a few strands of hair away from his green eyes.

"It's beautiful, isn't it?"

Remus mumbled, feeling somewhat shy. It wasn't every night you got dragged out of bed to gaze at the stars by your crush. He was glad it had happened though. He wouldn't trade this moment away for anything in the world.

"Not as beautiful as you~"

Came the reply, making Remus blush slightly despite his efforts not to, Sirius could be so romantic and caring whenever he wanted to. Really, no wonder he had ended up falling head over heels for him. He was just like all the others girls… well except for the fact that he was a guy.

"You're a moron.."

He mumbled as he looked down at their hands. Sirius skin felt nice and warm against his own. Sirius let him through the forest and down by the black lake. Then he stopped in his tracks, letting go of the others hand. They just stood there, watching each other a while. The silence was peaceful.

Then Sirius bowed in front of him before handing Remus his hand. "May I have this dance?" He asked softly, his eyes shining with anticipation. Remus blinked, dumbfounded. His mouth felt dry. Sirius wanted to dance… With him…

"Uhm.. Sirius, I can't dance.."

He mumbled sheepishly and looked away. He weren't really good at anything besides school. Sirius should know that by now. Sirius just grinned at that.

"So? I'll just teach you? Easy peasy!"

He still remembered some of the dance moves Professor McGonagall had taught them for the Yule ball. He stepped closer to the other, placing a hand on his waist while lacing their fingers together with his free hand.

"Just follow my lead and if you suck too bad, you can stand on my feet~"

Remus pouted miserably, knowing he'd probably end up failing. He looked down at their feet, trying to predict Sirius' moves so he could follow, while trying not to get too distracted by Sirius' loud humming. Why was he even doing this? Any minute now another prefect or a teacher would catch them?

Sirius could easily sense Remus distress and pulled him closer to himself. He allowed himself to breathe in his sweet scent, closing his eyes for a few seconds. Then he loosened his hold a bit to distance himself again. He didn't want to make Remus uncomfortable.

"Don't go all stiff on me, Moony… I want to dance with you, not a rag doll~"

He chuckled underneath his breath, just loud enough for Remus' ears to pick up on. Oh my.. Was that a blush he spotted on the brunettes scarred cheeks? Oh dear Merlin, Remus was way too cute for his own good. Well, he still had one card up his sleeve~

Remus felt himself melt into a small puddle of awkward goo. Normally he would've snapped at someone for commenting on him in a moment like this, but this was Sirius. He could never really stay mad at Sirius… Even if he wanted to.

Sirius looked over his shoulder, letting out a small soft whistle. He let the tone die out before repeating himself. Letting them know that they were ready, and a few moments after the first one showed up. A very small human-like creature with large multicoloured insect-like wings. It was about 3 inches. It lit up in the dark like a fire fly would. The wings buzzed lightly as it flew. Moments after more showed up. Fairies. All unique in their own little way.

Remus' eyes widened as they were circled by the fairies. They were all oh so pretty. He highly doubted that they'd show themselves without a good cause though. Sirius smirked, studying the other before spinning him around.

"It's amazing what a little honey and some sugar can do, huh?"

"I should've known.."

Remus sighed as a small blush crept upon his cheeks as Sirius spun him around, Sirius always had something planned out whether it was a prank, a date or just hanging with his friends. Yet, Sirius managed the be the most spontaneous of them all. Sometimes he wished he knew what went through the others head. He allowed Sirius to pull him a bit closer and looked down at his feet to make sure he wouldn't step on Sirius'.

His cheeks felt all warm and his stomach was filled with butterflies.

Sirius rested his cheek on top of Remus head while swaying lightly back and fourth. He was so happy that he had someone like Remus in his life. He made everything seem worth while. Despite the fact that neither of them talked about their feelings for each other and never went further than light discreet caresses and cuddling in front of the fireplace, Sirius knew that Remus felt just like him and that was good enough for him.

For now at least.
