A/N:  Well, I'm back and finally with a last chapter.  I'm making myself finish any old fanfics I didn't ever complete and after reading OOTP I really had Remus/Sirius on my mind.  I think mainly because in OOTP there's a scentence that says something about the present Harry gets from Remus and Sirius, and the sentence really came off to me like they were being referred to as a couple.  It was sweet.  Anyways, no spoilers for OOTP if you were worried about that.

Chapter 10
He's Gonna Win Someday

            The weeks of the school year rolled along.  Remus and Sirius were still as all over each other as ever and now Lily was always smiling a bit larger and clinging to James.  It had seemed that Severus had intentionally been avoiding them all, but none of them seemed to care.

            It was at night in the Gryffindor boys' dormitory.  Sirius had finally made up his mind.  He crept across the floor to Remus' bed and sat down on the edge of it.  He took a deep breath and then gently shook Remus awake.

            The young werewolf's eyes fluttered open sleepily.  "Sirius.  It's the middle of the night, what is it?"

            "I know," Sirius replied.

            "Know what?"

            "I know why I told Snape to come.  I was jealous.  You'd started spending time with him trying to be his friend.  I just don't like him.  He's a slimy Slytherin and a huge annoyance," Sirius said.

            "And thinking like that is why he has no friends to begin with.  The reason I even tried to be friends with him was because I felt ashamed of not ever doing anything about the things you and James have done to him,' Remus said.

            "I'm sorry Remie, I just didn't like the thought of you being friends with him.  I thought that if he knew about you that maybe he'd keep away from you.  I never dreamed you'd ever been attracted to him.  I never dreamed he'd have any feelings for you.  I'm sorry.  I made a mess," Sirius admitted.

            Remus put a hand on Sirius' cheek and looked his boyfriend in the eyes.  Remus leaned up and kissed Sirius.  Sirius was about to deepen the kiss when Remus broke it and smiled.  "Sirius, stop apologizing.  I forgave you already if you don't remember."

            Sirius smiled and kissed Remus.  "I promise I'll try not to get jealous if you want to have more friends, despite what house they're in."

            "Sirius, you know you're the one I love.  Promise me we'll always be together?"

            "As long as you so wish it," Sirius said.

            "Forever then, I promise.  I must say though that you'll probably outlive me."

            Remus chuckled.  "I don't think so.  You may be reckless, but you've got some form of common sense and excellent survival skills."

            "Well, it doesn't matter what happens.  We'll always be together.  I'm promising you that."  Sirius smiled and then launched into an all nighter snogging fest with Remus.

            The next morning when Remus went down the common room he had one of the most gleeful smiles on his face.  Lily who happened to be sitting on the couch in front of the fire noticed and rushed straight up to her friend.

            "Well, aren't you positively beaming this morning?" she asked.

            "Me?  Beaming?"

            "Okay, what happened?"

            "He promised me.  He promised we'd be together forever.  It was really sweet.  And then of course we sort of didn't get much sleep from all the snogging that went on after the promise," Remus admitted with a  chuckle.

            "Awe, that's sooo sweet," Lily replied.

            Remus smiled on some more and since he'd closed his eyes while doing so he didn't realize Sirius had come down the stairs until he felt a pair of strong arms around him.

            "So what's the red head 'awe'ing about?" Sirius asked

            "I was just being excited for Remus, after he told me that you'd made a promise to him," Lily explained.

            "Yup, the two of us together forever," Sirius said.  He nuzzled his nose in Remus' cheek and then kissed him.

            Remus smiled even more, now blushing.  *I'm so happy.  And to think I'll get to be happy forever.  With my Sirius.*

THE END

A/N:  Okay I finally ended it.  I thought about this fic  and how I'd left it unfinished after I'd read OOTP.  Oh well, I'm thinking I'm might have a one chapter fic about a little post-order of the phoenix, but I haven't a clue when I'll actually get it done.  Thank you to all whom have read this fic and I'm sorry it's taken me so long to finish it, but I got busy and then wrote like two complete other fics whilst I was stuck on this one.
