Finally Meeting

Just a little idea that got stuck in my head.

Italics are words written on their arms.

'What are you wearing?'

'My pyjamas and a dressing gown. You?'

'Darling, you're no fun!'

'I have a blanket too, I'm not technically wearing it but it's wrapped around me.'

'Are you cold? I could come over and warm you up if you'd like?.'

'You're sweet to offer, but I'm fine.'

'Are you sick? I'll bring soup. I promise to keep my hands to myself!'

'I'm sorry my Love. You know I can't.'

'Will you ever tell me why, Darling? Why we can't be together?'

'It's dangerous.'

'Can you let me decide that? Whatever it is, we can make this work.'

'Love… please.'

'Are you a bad guy? A good guy? Are you sixty? Whatever it is, we can make it work, Sweetheart. It's been so long since our words appeared for the first time. Years. Please. Let us be together.'

'Goodnight my Love.'

'Goodnight. I'll dream of you. One day I might actually have a dream where I see your face. I'm sorry I pushed again. I just long for us to be together. Please don't hate me.'

'I could never hate you. You don't know how much I long for that myself.'

'I love you. You know that, right?'

'I don't doubt that for a second. I love you too.'

...oOo…

'I need help.'

'Why? Are you in trouble?'

'I… I don't know who to turn to. My best friend is away somewhere. I can't say anything more. There's no-one else I can talk to.'

'You're worrying me. Talk to me.'

'My brother. He was attacked. He was bitten!'

'By?'

'Fenrir Greyback.'

'Lupin Farm, North Wales. Come quickly.'

'Darling, are you sure?'

'Yes. Come now. My parents can help you.'

...oOo…

Sirius rapped on the door of the farmhouse, not knowing what to expect. His brother was clutching his arm, hurting from the attack. Sirius didn't trust St. Mungos with him. He trusted his soulmate.

The door swung open and a woman smiled at the both. "Come in, we're expecting you. Remus is just tidying up for me." She moved aside and the pair walked in.

"Dear, let me treat your wound. On the sofa with you."

They walked through to the living room and Regulus froze, his eyes fixed on a man in front of him. "Wolf."

Sirius glanced past Regulus and when he met amber eyes, he knew this was his soulmate. He helped Regulus onto the sofa.

"My brother called you wolf. Are you one too?"

"I am," Remus said, looking down at the ground. "Werewolves can recognise each other. I'm not sure how, we just... we just know."

As Remus' parents crowded around Regulus to heal him and Sirius moved closer to Remus. "Is that all? Is that why you've never allowed us to meet?"

"Is that not enough?" Remus asked.

Sirius ran his hand over Remus' cheek where a faded scar marred his otherwise handsome face. "That's not enough to keep us apart. I thought you might be married or something."

"Not married. Just scared that you would hate me for what I am," Remus admitted.

"I'll never hate you. But my brother's going to survive, right?"

"He will. He'll be cursed like me though, but I'll teach him how to handle this. How to handle the pain when the moonlight hits us. You're my soulmate and I'll do anything to help you! Oh… there's… there's only one guest room."

"Guess that means I'm bunking with you," Sirius whispered, before moving around the sofa to ensure Regulus was recovering well.

He met Remus' gaze over the sofa before grabbing a pen from his pocket and writing on his arm. He watched Remus' face light up into a brilliant smile as he pulled up his own sleeve to read.

'I meant every word. I love you, sweetheart.'
