Love to explore – Part one
(Sirius' POV)
One week had passed since Remus had woken up, two weeks since his stay at my house. He had been unconscious during one week the worst week I had ever had to pass. As we had rescued Remus from his home and brought him here the truth hit me hard. Remus was had been in a very bad state, his spine had been broken and his body had been covered with several. The sight was too much to bear but nevertheless I had stayed with him during the whole week. Only leaving the room if the doctor came for Remus.
Still Remus was weak as the full moon had been just the night before which hadn't done any good to his already weakened state. But at least he was out of this hellhole and now was here, lying in bed fast asleep and not somewhere in a dark cellar.
My finger was slowly caressing Remus' cheek as I was lying next to him on the bed, propped up on my elbow watching him sleep. He looked like an angel fallen from heaven during his sleep, with a ghost like smile playing along his lips and sometimes you could hear a faint mumble of words. Nevertheless Remus was a calm and quiet sleeper but he was also very attentive during his sleep, which made him wake up sometimes when he heard sounds he didn't know or sounded unwelcome. I presumed that that came because of his Lycantrophy something you could count as an advantage from his curse.
Another quiet mumble escaped Remus' lips and I smiled looking at the watch on the nightstand I saw that it was nearly already time for dinner; I kissed Remus softly hoping that the waking up trick would work.
Remus moaned quietly in his slumber, responding the kiss sleepily but the kiss intensified every minute until I felt Remus' hand behind my head pulling me closer to deepen the kiss. We kissed for several minutes before I pulled away, but not to far mind you, and looked into Remus' shining amber eyes.
"Slept well gorgeous?" I asked and I could see a small blush creeping along Remus cheeks. I smile warmly back at him and give him a small peck on top of his nose while in the meantime my hand strokes gently through his blond golden hair, with those faint traces of grey streaks looking through.
"Always with you by my side." Remus whispered still a little sleepily his voice hoarse from the last full moon. He pushed me down on my back and nestled his head on top of my chest with one arm on my chest holding on to the shirt I was wearing tightly. I wrapped one of my arms protectively around him stroking his back gently watching him as he returned into another peaceful slumber.
Not having slept much myself during the last days I resumed to close my eyes as well falling into a peaceful sleep. I only woke up again as I heard someone opening the door to my bedroom. I opened my eyes quickly but relaxed soon again as I saw that it was only my mother entering the room with something to eat.
"Sorry dear did I wake you up?" my mother asked quietly as I rubbed my eyes sleepily with my free hand looking curiously at the tray of food she was bringing in.
"It's ok mum… what have you cooked?" I asked curiously smiling broadly pushing Remus gently from my chest who gave a disgruntled groan and then reached out for me again. I sighed and shook him gently before I sat up in bed making some space on the bed for my mother to sit down.
"Shepherds Pie I hope you two like it." mum said and smiled warmly at Remus who was blinking sleepily smiling he sniffed the air and then his gaze fell on the tray and he sat up next to me, yawning slightly he leant his head against my shoulder.
"Well I guess I'll leave you two alone for now, but I don't want to see anything left on the plates when I come back." Mum said and I smiled at her giving her a sign for her to finally leave the room that she then did.
I passed Remus one of the plates and we both started to eat in silence. I suddenly stopped eating as I heard a small whimper hear from my side, I looked over to Remus concerned who had placed his plate on the nightstand next him and had now his face in his hands. I did the same with my plate and then gathered Remus in my arms, trying to comfort him as much as possible.
"Moony what's wrong love? Why are you crying?" I asked gently as he tried to burrow his face in my chest while I was stroking his back comfortingly. I didn't get an answer for several minutes and I wondered if he would ever give me an answer, but then finally he spoke.
"What happened to *him*?" Remus asked still slightly sobbing looking up in my face now fear covering his face. I sighed, I wasn't planning to ever answer that question but well if Remus wanted to know I would tell him.
"Do you think you are ready for what I am going to tell you?" I asked concerned and Remus rested once more his head against my chest and nodded. I kissed him once more on top of his head and nuzzled my nose briefly through his hair, taking in his scent.
I started to tell him of what had happened from day they had gotten him away from this place until the day he woke up. I remembered everything clearly reviewing everything in front of my eyes like a small film.
