"Snupin"
by Battlescar
A/N: First off, let me say hello. It's been ages since I've written anything and I've never really gotten better. This story originally started out as practice, but the plots kept developing, and I've got three and a half chapters written so far and a couple more already in my mind, and since I had already typed it up, so I decided "what the heck!" Reviews. Please. Any kind, as long as they are not downright stupid (i.e. Negative feedback is cool, but "U R GEY!!!1 UR STOREE IS HOREBLEEE!!11one" isn't.) Anyway, if you're wondering about the painfully simple title, it's simply because the main characters of the story was always Snape and Lupin, and Snupin is a term people use sometimes talking about them as a pairing. It's simply a story about Snape and Lupin, and different things that happen between them. Oh yes, and if anyone seems a bit off-character... I wrote it that way, I am aware of it, and don't worry, because they're always second-guessing themselves. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I SHALL ANSWER THEM IN THE NEXT UPDATE. I'm only updating if anyone gives a shit, too. (I don't know what to expect, I've never posted in the HP section before)
THIS STORY IS RATED R. THERE IS MANLOVE IN IT. If you do not like these things, do not bitch about it and go away, and don't yell at me about it.
Chapter One The Kiss
Remus J. Lupin was walking back from the library one night when he stumbled upon something rather unexpected. It was the sight of another boy about his age, and he was crying.
The young boy was sobbing his heart out, crouching on his knees with his head in his hands, his back to Remus. His small frame shook violently as he sobbed, but he never made a noise. His tattered robes hung loosely, and his dark hair fell in his face. There was no doubt in Lupin's mind who this was.
"S-Snape?" he whispered, kneeling beside him and placing a shaking hand gently on the cowering Slytherin's back, making him jump up and away in surprise.
"What are you doing here!?" Snape yelled in anger, but with a sense of fear and embarrassment in his eyes, his face red from the tears as he quickly wiped his eyes with his sleeve, trying to compose himself in front of one of his greatest enemies. "Didn't anyone ever teach you to mind your own bloody business?!"
Remus nodded, "I'm sorry," he replied, slightly taken aback and took a step forward, "What's wrong? It must be something really bad to make you cry like that."
Was... Lupin being... sympathetic? To him? Snape watched him with an air of uncertainty, but pushed it out of his mind by shaking his head and letting out a sigh, taking a step backward only to meet the cold stone wall. "Go away, Lupin," he hissed, "I don't want your bloody sympathy or anything else you could possibly offer," sneering, he folded his arms across his chest, but he bit his lip in a slightly nervous state. It was a lie.
The two boys stood there silently for a few thoughtful seconds until Remus took another step forward, closing the space between them.
Remus grinned. "Is that so?" he whispered, brushing a rogue tear from the other boy's cheek, whose face was now red from blushing, not from crying as it had been earlier.
"L-Lupin..?" Snape stammered dumbfounded, making Remus put a finger to the Slytherin's lips, "Shh," he whispered, and dropped his hand, their faces inches apart. "Lupin.." Snape spoke again, whispering against the other boy's lips as the void filled between them and their lips met.
The kiss started out gentle and innocent, both unsure of what exactly to do, but Snape's nervous shaking hands found their way, one resting on Lupin's neck and the other around his waist, pulling him closer. Remus tilted up the other boy's chin with his thumb, kissing him gently and nibbling on Snape's lower lip for a moment, leaning his arm against the wall for balance. The passion intensified as Remus' tongue found it's way into the other boy's mouth, exploring the sweet taste of the Slytherin's mouth and tongue.
Hesitantly, Remus slowly pulled away to look into Severus Snape's eyes. Snape was paler than usual, looking sort of scared and confused but showed no sign of disgust. It was peculiar, and Remus gazed into his eyes silently, watching him, patiently waiting for some sort of harsh reaction...
"Lupin.." the Slytherin managed to choke out.
Remus shook his head, "Severus?"
"R-Remus?" Snape sputtered, unsure of whether or not to remove his hands from the Gryffindor.
A grin. "Yes. Call me Remus," he chuckled and brushed a few fallen strands of hair from his own eyes, only to have Snape pull him back into a deep kiss, running his fingers through Remus' hair passionately and messing it all up again. Remus pressed his body up against Snape's.
The two were lost in the heat of the moment until he noticed the feel of Snape's erection digging into his leg and was so painfully aware of his own.
"Crap..." muttered Snape, looking down at himself, and then back at Lupin. "We need to find someplace... someplace secluded," Remus suggested quietly, with a faint blush on his cheeks. The Slytherin nodded. "Are you sure you want this...?" asked Remus seriously, glancing into Snapes eyes.
"Are you sure YOU want this?" he half-snapped back, a dead serious look lingering in his eyes.
"I–" Remus started, but he closed his mouth quickly and snapped his head in the direction of approaching voices, "Someone's coming," he said quietly, looking around nervously for a quick escape, but alas, they stood at the end of the hall, and there was no open door or corridor to run down. There were steps at the other end of the hall, but that's where the voices came from, and they would surely be caught. "But there's no way out..." Snape muttered, "Quick! Act like we were fighting," he added quickly, pushing Lupin off of him and composing himself just in time. Two figures appeared at the end of the corridor – James Potter and Sirius Black.
"Remmy!" Sirius cried out with a wide grin, seeing the dazed boy standing in the middle of the hall, "We were looking everywhere for you! C'mon, we've got some marauding to do!"
"And if it isn't old Snivellus too!" chimed in James in amusement, "What's the snake up to now, eh, Moony?"
Remus grinned, fixing his still messy hair, "Just being a lousy git as usual."
Sirius nodded, "O'course."
"Just go on, leave!" Snape growled at them, "Get out of here, you bloody fucking pretty boy. Go on with your little fucking friends!"
"And what if we don't?" Sirius grinned, raising an eyebrow in obvious amusement, "Going to go and run to your mommy or something, eh?" he added smoothly, shoving his hands into the deep pockets of his robes.
Snape narrowed his eyes, anger boiling up inside him, his blood hot. "Get the fuck out of here before I decide to tell the whole school about your little friend's secret. How would you like that Lupin? Or should I say werewolf?" he hissed.
Something snapped inside of Sirius and he lunged for Snape's neck, "I'll kill 'im!!" he bellowed, as James grabbed onto the back of his robes, desperately trying to restrain him.
Remus stood slightly agape for a moment before snapping back to his senses. He grabbed onto Sirius' robes, helping James hold him back and, glaring at Snape, spit words at him. "Just get out of here," he muttered, straining under Sirius' strength and pure ambition to beat the living daylights out of Snape in his honor. "SIRIUS!" he cried, "Calm the hell down, will you?"
"Bloody hell!" cried Sirius, "That mangy git!" he scrambled to get to Snape, "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!?" he yelled, growling fiercely.
"Sirius!" James cried, and then glanced over at Remus, "Let's just get the hell out of here already, I don't know much much longer–" he gripped onto Sirius' robes tighter, "–I can hold him." Remus nodded, and the two of them dragged him out of the corridor, Snape glaring at them and parting his own separate way, striding down the hall. Remus watched after him, looking slightly disappointed.
"Who does he think he is...?" Sirius echoed himself, panting slightly, slowly calming down. He had finally stopped struggling. James shrugged and Remus shook his head.
"I need to get some sleep," Remus said suddenly, letting go of Sirius, who fell to the floor, and began to walk down the hallway. Sirius scrambled to his feet and the other two marauders ran after him.
"Aw, c'mon Moony! We spent all this time looking for you and now you just want to go to sleep?" Sirius whined, stepping in front of the shorter boy and blocking his path, so Remus couldn't pass.
"Sirius," Remus sighed, "...Padfoot. Really. I don't really feel like it right now. I'm tired, I've been studying all day... I need to get some sleep."
"Exactly the reason to come with us!" James grinned, and Sirius nodded in agreement. "Yeah, Rem. You need to let loose a bit!"
Remus pushed by him, "I'll let loose by sleeping," he muttered, leaving a frown upon Sirius' face and confusion upon James'.
