25. The last time you loved

"When was the last time you ate?" Sirius asked him, curling further into the embrace of Remus' arms.

"About three hours ago, with you," Remus answered.

"When was the last time you laughed?" Sirius continued

"Twenty minutes ago, with you," murmured Remus.

"What about patience? When was the last time you lost that?"

Remus snorted. "This morning, with you."

"And smiling? When was the last time you did that?"

"Two minutes ago, with you."

"When was the last time you loved?" Sirius asked softly, eyes traveling to Remus'.

Remus smiled. "Half a second ago, with you," he whispered into the other's ear.
