Alien!Sirius
It was by chance, really, that Sirius spotted him. He had been on his star, his namesake, looking at the other worlds, when he saw a glint of light and realised someone was looking back.
His telescope focused and he could see the man clear as day, and the man's gaze was fixed on his star.
There were millions of stars, but the man had chosen him! Sirius noted that the man's equipment looked millions of years old. How could he see Sirius properly though that thing?
Sirius waved his hand, testing the Earthling's ability, but the Earthling didn't respond or acknowledge the wave in the slightest, which led Sirius to believe that the man couldn't see him properly.
Well, or the Earthling was very rude, but Sirius didn't want to think that about his beautiful new Earthling!
He looked through the telescope again, watching the Earthling until he went into his house. Sirius sighed as he moved away from the telescope. How was he going to court a Earthling?
After all, everyone knew that Earthlings weren't advanced in the slightest. He would just have to be really obvious.
...oOo...
It took some doing, but the next time the Earthling turned his telescope to the skies, Sirius waited patiently. The telescope found his star once more, and Sirius made the star flicker. He glanced in his telescope eagerly, but the Earthling didn't seem to be interested at all over what had happened. Instead his Moonmate turned and walked inside.
Sirius sighed. Clearly his Earthling needed something bigger to impress him. Well, Sirius had a few things in mind. He headed over to his vehicle, not caring that it was night and would take hours to get to Earth. He had a Earthling to woo.
...oOo...
Remus woke up earlier than usual. His eyes had been messing him the night before when he had been stargazing. He had imagined the star flashing, and stars didn't do that. That was the point he had called it a night.
The next morning however, he was woken up by his parents shouting his name. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes before slipping his feet into his warm slippers and grabbing his dressing gown.
He slipped his arms into the warm purple dressing gown and rushed outside to where his parents were standing.
"Mum, Dad?"
"Remus. You know how we always laugh about crop circles…" Hope began.
"Yeah," Remus replied, following his parents' gaze.
"Well, they don't seem all that funny right now."
"What are we looking at?" Remus asked, confused.
"A crop circle, I believe. Got up to check the crops, and…"
"And how many crops have we lost from this?" Remus asked.
"About five-percent of the corn," Lyall replied with a sigh. "I've called the police. I expect it was a prank of some sort."
Remus nodded. "I'm going to get dressed before I take a look. Is the corn gone or just flattened? Because some might be salvageable."
"Gone," Lyall replied tiredly. "And now the police are going to come, and who knows when we'll be allowed to tend the fields?"
"We have the extra animals, we'll still have enough to pay—"
"This is private land and everyone is going to want to see the crop-circle. Dad, do you have a bit of wood that I can attach to the fence?"
"Yes, why?"
"Five pounds to see the crop circle?" Remus suggested. "I'm sure we can make back what we've lost with the crops disappearing."
"Great idea!" Hope replied. "I'll get the paint."
...oOo...
Sirius stomped away from the telescope. How could his Earthling betray him like that? He had left a very personal love poem for him to see, and the Earthling shared it with other people. He had poured all of his love and emotions into that poem.
'Your arse is the stuff of poetry' was his best poem ever!
Maybe his Earthling wasn't into poetry. Maybe something more personal?
Sirius grinned. He knew just the thing to make the Earthling want him.
...oOo...
Remus looked at the television with the picture of the second crop-circle that had appeared. His mother was at the gate collecting entry fees and his father was doing farm-work. He had headed inside for a bathroom break and checked the news on his way through the house.
"Is that… a cock-circle?" he muttered, finally getting a proper look at the crop circle. "Where the hell did it come from?"
Well, whatever was going on, it was happening at a good time. Money had been scarce recently, and with this publicity, the farm was getting a stream of visitors and money was coming in quicker than they could keep track.
...oOo...
Sirius was even more upset by the people visiting to see the latest picture he left. Didn't the Earthling know that you weren't supposed to show others dick-pics?
He started his flying motorbike. He was going to explain to the Earthling why this was just not cool.
And to think, he had been declaring his undying love and devotion. Who did this Earthling think he was, rejecting Sirius like that?
Remus was just climbing into bed when he heard the noise. At first he thought it was a helicopter, but there were strange lights in the sky.
He rushed to his parents room, banging on the door, before running outside, his parents right behind. They all watched the lights until a motorbike landed and a man climbed off.
Remus watched the man as he approached, his eyes taking in the stranger. Tall with long dark hair, grey eyes and a mouth he'd like to feel with his own. The man was sex on legs and Remus couldn't look away.
The man stopped in front of him and they stared at each other for a long moment, until the sound of Remus' father clearing his throat brought them out of their dazes.
"There you are!" Sirius exclaimed. "You've ignored all of my messages!"
"M-messages?" Remus whispered. The spell broken, Remus was able to move his gaze. He looked over at the motorbike. "How was that flying?"
"I flew my ship from my home," Sirius replied, frowning as he pointed at the star. "But don't try and change the subject. My messages. I put them there in your field so you could see them and you showed them to everyone!"
"You live up there? On the star?"
"On the Sirius star," Sirius replied.
"Wow, that's… that's amazing."
"Don't think you can sweet talk my after the way you treated me," Sirius huffed. "First you ignore my poem, and that's my best work, and then the intimate picture I gave, and you just showed it to all of the Earthlings. That was only for your eyes!"
Remus turned to look at his parents, utterly confused. After a moment he turned back. "You're… are you… are you an Alien? But your ship is a motorbike?"
"Well, you're an Alien to me," Sirius muttered, unimpressed. "How am I supposed to woo you if you don't pay attention?"
"You wrote me a poem?" Remus asked, getting the impression that the Alien was moment away from stamping his foot in a huff. "Why would you do that?"
"It's called 'Your Arse is the Stuff of Poetry."
Remus ignored his mother's stifled giggle from behind him. "I'm really sorry… Alien guy, but I can't read the symbols you put."
"So you didn't know it was a poem?"
Remus shook his head.
"Oh. Well, the dick-pic—did you like that?"
"I thought it looked a bit like one," Remus murmured. "I'm sorry, am I dreaming?"
"I can see where you'd be confused. Many people dream about me, but I assure you I'm really here and I will now woo you in person."
He moved forward, and Remus stared at him with wide eyes as he dropped to his knees and took Remus' hand. "My darling Earthling—"
"Remus. My name… it's Remus."
"Mine is Sirius. So, my darling Remus, I have written poetry on how utterly beautiful you are. We have met under the full-moon, It is said that my kind meet their Moonmates under a full-moon, and here we are. My dearest Moony, tonight we shall wed and make love."
"Oh. Uh…" Remus turned to look back at his parents, who were clearly not going to intervene. He glared at the snickering pair, before turning back to Sirius.
"What? How?"
"It is simple. I shall be top, as I have watched you from above for quite some time, and you shall be bottom, my love."
"Well... I'm going to make a cup of tea," Hope said. Turning towards the house.
"I'm going to... help your mother," Lyall added. "Don't do anything crazy whilst we're inside."
"Don't get married or abducted." Hope said.
"I thought you were going to say something a little more maternal," Remus muttered.
Hope ignored him and smiled at Sirius. "It's nice to meet you, dear. Will you come inside and have a cup of tea with us later?"
"I shall, once I've finished wooing your son," Sirius replied solemnly. "It will be nice to know the family that I will soon be married into."
"Of course," Hope stated. "Remus loves chocolates. I'm sure chocolates would help you win him over."
"Mum," Remus hissed. "Don't encourage him!"
"Chocolate? What is chocolate?" Sirius asked.
Remus stared at Sirius opened mouthed. "You don't know what chocolate it? It's only the most delicious… I don't even have the words to describe it. I'll get you some."
"Your Mum said that chocolates are to win someone over when wooing them, and you want to give me chocolates? You do not need to woo me, my love. I am already yours!"
"I'm… I think I'll go and help my parents make tea," Remus said, turning and attempting to pull his hand from Sirius.
Sirius quickly stood up and used his grip on Remus' hand to pull Remus closer. "Not so fast, my Moonmate." Before Remus knew what was happening, his body was pressed against Sirius' and lips were expertly caressing his. He couldn't help but return the kiss. It wasn't every day a beautiful Alien declared their love for him.
"What's a Moonmate?" Remus asked, dazed at the kiss and not even attempting to get out of Sirius' grip.
"The closest translation would be Soulmate, but Moonmate means so much more," Sirius insisted. "So… what's it to be, my love? You can travel the stars with me, or we could stay here, together?"
Remus couldn't help but smile at the options. Sirius had clearly decided that he was going to be a part of Remus' life, and who was Remus to refuse him?
Especially if he kept kissing like that.
"Stay here with me and I have Sunday off, so we could visit the stars on Saturday night?"
"Wonderful. I didn't bring pyjamas, but as we are to be wed, I'm sure that won't be an issue. Skin on skin contact is required between betrothed couples and Moonmates. Which way is your bed?"
Remus couldn't help the shiver that ran through him as he considered what was going to happen that night.
But first, he was going to show Sirius how wonderful chocolate was.
