Still Remus's POV:
"Sirius. You need to wake up."
He shook his head slightly. "No. Never again. I just want to sleep."
So I kissed him. Amazing logic I had there. This wasn't Cinderella that Mum used to read to me when I was younger!
His eyes snapped open.
It did work!
And then, a blink later, he was curled up in a ball, shaking.
Merlin.
I stood there, transfixed and watched in horror as a guttural sob emerged from Sirius's throat and I still couldn't move as the door opened and my mouth wouldn't open to form the words "I don't know" when Lily asked if everything was okay and I was finally loose from the Body-Bind that wasn't on me. I sank to my knees.
I'd really screwed up this time.
"Right," Lily said. "Just a second."
She yelled down the stairs to the Common Room, "Someone get up here!"
"Remus, breathe," Lily said, her voice close to my ear and I vaguely registered someone sitting on Sirius's bed.
I took a breath.
I should've known better! I was his boyfriend, for Merlin's sake! If I couldn't make Sirius feel safe, who could?
Lily led me out of the room.
