Chapter Two
"Siri,…I want to thank you." Remus sweetly walked up to Sirius and put his arms around his shoulders. "Thank me for doing what?" Sirius asked, laughing sheepishly a tad. Remus pressed his forehead to Sirius' cheek. He spoke up against his neck. "For being here, every month. And just about day." He said.
"It really wasn't a problem, Moony." Said Sirius. He kissed Remus on the forehead gently. "You know that I'll always be here for you, well, unless I'm not around." "Thanks."
There was still one month left before school started, and, sadly, the day the trains left for Hogwarts was full moon. "SIRIUS. I CANNOT CUDDLE AND STRUGGLE WITH YOU ON THE TRAIN. It just isn't going to work." Remus pouted, tears falling down his cheeks as he pounded his fists into Sirius' sofa cushions. "Settle down, settle down. Sure you can." Sirius said, comforting the miserable little fellow. Remus turned around, onto his back and stared up at Sirius. His eyes were swollen with tears, and his cheeks were glistening in the sunlight. Sirius bent down and kissed Remus on the lips, and held it for a couple seconds. Remus brought his hand up to the back of his lover's head, and was about to pull him into another kiss, when… There was an incredibly loud crash from outside the window. They both jumped up, Remus wiped his eyes and Sirius opened up the curtains, (which were already open, just a little teeny bit.) Sirius looked around, squinting. "I don't see anything." He said, but suddenly the look on his face froze when he looked down. "What are you doing down there?!?!" He hissed. Remus blushed for some reason. He sat up and looked out the window, but before he got a chance to look down, Sirius bolted to the door and accidentally knocked Remus over. "What was that for!" "Wait." Sirius opened up his door and walked out. Remus didn't move. He heard Sirius screaming at the top of his lungs, "WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING HERE?!? IF YOU WANTED TO COME OVER YOU COULD OF ASKED, OR SOMETHING!!! ANYTHING ELSE!!" There was a rustling sound, and a couple tiny voices making whimpering excuses. "James?" Remus mumbled to himself. He wiped his eyes again, this time with a handkerchief Sirius gave him, and got up. He slowly walked to the door and peered around the side. James and Peter were sitting on the ground. Next to them were various boxes, crates and dust bins that had obviously been staked up on each other, and had fallen over. "We didn't mean to be spying on you. I mean, oh come on. Best friends don't spy on each other, right?" James said, he voice flustered. Sirius heaved a heavy sigh.
"We're still best friends. But what were you doing looking in my window?" "We didn't know that Remus was there!" Peter exclaimed. His nose wrinkled, as if he was lying and they knew the whole time Remus was there. "-- And we didn't see you and Remus doing anything weird!" Peter added. James hit him. "Okay. Here's the deal; You know I know about you and Remus, " James began. Remus and Sirius exchanged looks, then nods. "I let a little bit of it slip with Peter, you know how friends are, and um….Well Peter thought I was lying…so…God I'm sorry." Sirius smiled. "I forgive you." Remus shook his head.
"We still have a problem." He said. Everyone turned to him. "The train leaves for Hogwarts on the same day as the full moon." Remus' voice got a sudden sound of sadness to it. James sat up finally and dusted himself off. "Just cuddle with Sirius or something. D'you think anybody would really notice?" He said, giving his head an animated little tilt. "YES." Said Sirius and Remus in unison. James shook his head. "No way!" He said. "Just put up a curtain or something. Y'know, something creative that works. Nobody will notice and or care." "Think you and Peter can go? Me and Remus need to talk about this. Please?" Peter and James nodded to each other. "Even though we did have some time to waste, I guess we can get going." Said James. Peter nodded another time.
"Yep. We'll leave you two lovers to 'do your thing.'" He said, and shot a wink at Remus and Sirius. Sirius' upper lip twitched. "What do you think we're going to do?" Remus asked sharply. James and Peter smiled at each other.
"Little gay boy things." Said Peter. Sirius started growling deep within his throat. "Stop it Siri! You're acting like me during the month again." Remus moaned, grabbing Sirius by the waist, just incase he did something stupid. "Hey, no hard feelings, Padfoot. Okay?" Said James. Sirius got a hold on himself and removed Remus' arms from his waist.
"No hard feelings." He said, dully.
Now only two weeks before the departure to Hogwarts, and Remus was starting to get incredibly twitchy and on-edge. Sirius said that they would just go along with it, see how things worked out and hopefully all would go well. "Sirius, for the third time could you help me pack??" Remus barked, opening up an empty trunk and slamming a couple folded clothing items into it. Sirius was lazily laying down on Remus' bed, a piece of paper fluttering about between his fingers. He rolled his eyes and struggled a little sigh out.
"S'pose I can." He said finally, and got up. He sat next to Remus and had a look at everything he was going to pack. "Are you really bringing all of this? How much is this? Three, four trunks?" He said. Remus shot him an annoyed look. "Yes, I am." He said sharply, his lips thinning. Sirius rolled his eyes yet again. " I don't even take this much." He said boldly. "Well, I'm not exactly you, right?" Said Remus, with a faint glow of smugness to his voice. "Right." Said Sirius. He suddenly froze. "Wouldn't that be like…Masturbation?" Remus threw a book at his face. "Get packing."
Boarding the trains, James walked behind Remus and Sirius, watching how they held hands in such incredibly secrecy. He giggled with Peter behind their backs. Remus was incredibly agitated, and every time he whimpered or made a little sound of weary-ness, James made note that Sirius would give Remus' hand a brief squeeze. How they could be in love so, was above both James and Peter. It was quite annoying seeing Sirius give such intimate attention to Remus.
But once they got on the train, Remus and Sirius shared one side, (quite closely) while James and Peter kept their distances on the other side. James was rather pouty about this whole thing, but tried to avoid it. He didn't want to look like he was involved with their gay-ness. Peter acted oblivious. Remus started sweaty half way through the train ride. It was a night trip this time. He made a point of letting everyone else on the train know that he thought the people setting up the train schedule were after him, and they knew he wouldn't like it.
"Shush, Remus. You make it sound like someone smuggled an inmate onto the train." Sirius said, calmingly. Remus twitched a great lot, his head laying in Sirius' lap.
"Actually, it's a good thing that it's a night ride." James chimed in with. "Why?" Sirius. Peter and Remus (in a moan) asked. "Because, everyone, or most everyone, will be sleeping." Said James, and he finished with a tired yet happy smile.
"Good point, Prongs." Said Sirius, who put his attention back onto Remus, who had begun to sweat. "You be alright, now, Remus." "Yeah, hang in there Moony." Said James. He reached over and gave Remus a little pat on the head. Remus gnashed his teeth on James' contact. "HANDS TO YOURSELF." He screamed. James rolled his eyes and sat back down.
A minute or so later, the cabin door opened and one of the newly second-years came in, Otto Hillshire.
"Who's being violated in here?" Otto asked, his voice small and scared sounding. James stood up.
"Nobody is being violated nowhere." He said angrily. Otto backed up and was about to leave, when he noticed Remus laying on Sirius' lap.
"What is going on here?" He asked. "OUT." James yelled, and Otto obeyed. "Siri, I feel really, really bad." Remus groaned, once Otto had left. He clung onto Sirius' shirt collar and cried out. James shook his head. "This is really weird." He said. "Be quiet, please." Said Sirius, sounding strangely un-like himself. He looked back at Remus, who was now sweating a great lot. Sirius laid down on the seat and brought Remus onto his stomach.
"Shh…Hey, lads, could you try to not look or something?" He said to James and Peter. They rolled their eyes, but did as told. Once they weren't looking, Sirius gave Remus several long, wet kisses, and his hands ran all over Remus' writhing body. Remus' eyes shut slowly.
By the time they got to Hogwarts, Remus was completely normal acting and completely happy. Totally exhausted, and hanging on Sirius without even realizing it. Staying up all night on the train made a great excuse.
"Siri,…I want to thank you." Remus sweetly walked up to Sirius and put his arms around his shoulders. "Thank me for doing what?" Sirius asked, laughing sheepishly a tad. Remus pressed his forehead to Sirius' cheek. He spoke up against his neck. "For being here, every month. And just about day." He said.
