Author's Note: Not mine, not mine, not mine…I have to keep reminding myself this…
Breathing heavily, drenched with a mixture of sweat and rainwater, Sirius and Remus reluctantly separated.
Remus' mind reeled. Should he be joyful or in shock? Should he be disgusted? He wasn't used to being unable to think. Only once a month was his mind as muddled as it was now, and that was certainly understandable. Oh shit-Sirius!
They were still in tight proximity due to the fact that they were still tangled in Sirius' robes.
Sirius, pale and quaking, wasn't even attempting to muster his usual confidence. He was thinking along the same lines as Remus-something that happened very rarely indeed.
"Err…" started Remus, but he couldn't continue. What could he say? The silence was tense. They had even forgotten how hard it was pouring on their unsheltered heads. Thankfully, Sirius being Sirius, found the perfect excuse.
"Uhh…We-We're gonna miss lunch." He said, a weak smile flickering on his lips. Remus' gratitude must have shown on his face, because the apprehension eased somewhat as the two disentangled themselves-with difficulty, I might add. Then, laughing, the pair sprinted across the muddy grounds toward the comfort of the castle.
It was finished. He wasn't sure, but James hoped that the potion was supposed to be runny, clear, and giving off sparks. If not…oh well, they deserved what was coming to them. At least it wasn't talking to him.
Just a few hours. He figured. It'd be far too strange (not to mention scary) to have Hogwarts' soon-to-be cutest couples together for too long.
James grinned inwardly. This was turning out to be a pretty interesting Valentines Day.
Another Author's Note: Okay…Everybody knows by now that the chapters are short. In case you didn't get the memo, I KNOW THIS. The reason behind it is this: Would you really come back if I didn't leave cliffhangers? Granted they are pretty short, but I only have one day in which to fit an entire story, and it's far easier if the chapters are on the short side.
If you have any questions/comments about the story, feel free to IM me at OddbALLer35. Wow. I must be bored. Anyway, if you send anything inappropriate or threatening, you will be the one threatened. You have been warned. Otherwise, I'd love to talk with you.
