It was time; the silvery orb that entices the demon from his soul was about to return. Burning nausea, prickling bones and mood swings were only the beginning of recurring nightmare. Every month he would beg the sky not to part and let the orb return and every moth he was stabbed by disappointment. Sitting on the window sill near the fire, Remus stared into the clear blue sky preying to whoever that it would not take him over. Even with age and experience the wolf became more cunning, persuading his logical mind to do more beastly acts and slowly chipping away Remus's power over it.

On awakening from a previous incarceration within that body, Remus was oozing crimson and flesh hung from him, but none of this was his own. A figured laid at his feet, motionless. A young deer whose gentle, serene body laid in ghastly tatters amongst the shredded remains of Remus's clothes. He crawled towards it, almost childlike in his curiosity and attempt to find some semblance of life in the coldness of death. He was powerless to do anything but weep over the life he took.

Returning to the house with his victim sprawled across his arms; Remus picked up a shovel and began to dig, choosing the most beautiful spot in the garden to place the life. Shovelling the last piece of dirt on the remains he wiped the sweat that accumulated from his forehead. 'The roses' he thought to himself, knowing every time he observed the beauty of the scarlet petals of the rich blossom he would remember the blood he took and what he was capable of being.

Tear began to gather in his amber eyes as purposely provoked these images once again wishing he were someone else, someone better or luckier than he. Suddenly his thoughts rested on Sirius, the one man who provoked the only happy images he could see anymore. How could he be so selfish?

Remus could no longer hold back the tears that yarned to break free from his eyes, Sirius's life was far more terrible and agonising that Remus could ever imagine. You wouldn't see the proud Sirius Black falling into the depths of self-pity. Sniffing, Remus shook loose the final tear that threatened to fall and adjusted his shirt; finally removing his gaze from the tiny white freckles that littered the sky. A fierce grumble erupted from him, deciding it was best to eat now when he had time before his transformation Remus rose to his feet. Taking one more side glance towards the rose bush outside, he muttered to himself 'never again' as he proceeded to the kitchen.

Sirius held his head in his hands letting out a dry sob, unable to produce tears that begged to form as he watched Remus's figure at the window. How could he be so selfish? It never before occurred to Sirius how much ache Remus had suffered; being without anyone in the world, suffering transformation after transformation alone. He let free a another sob, this more painful than the last. His face was flustered as if he had been crying, but with the absence of watery marks he was just pink in complexion. He was causing more pain to an already broken Remus; Sirius loved him too much to do this again. Straightening his hair he moved at a quickened pace towards the kitchen, spotting Remus on his knees scouring the cupboards for some type of edible material.

"Remus…" Sirius whispered softly, his smooth tones caused Remus to jump knocking his head on the door. Rubbing his head and moaning under his breath; Remus rose from the floor and tried to form words.

"Sirius…I…uhh... I'm sor" Without finishing his sentence Sirius glided over to Remus, placing his arms around Remus's slender waist, he caressed his lower back. Wetting his lip Sirius moved closer into Remus until finally skin was placed onto skin. The surprise and tenderness of the kiss caused Remus's knees to buckle from underneath his, Sirius supported him placing more pressure into the kiss that was so long overdue.

Sirius's tongue gently teased it's way into Remus's full lips and spread them open; taking in his taste, remembering it as exactly the same sweet one from 12 years ago. Sirius playfully lapped up as much of Remus as he could, tickling and spinning his tongue causing small moans to escape from Remus. Remus enjoying every minutes of his, also started to explore this unknown which was once so familiar to him.

His hands slowly crept under the fabric of Sirius's shirt that held his perfect body; he absorbed Sirius warmth slowly as his hands sneaked up towards Sirius's already hardened nipples. He lightly caressed them, causing Sirius to gentle whimper sending vibrations down Remus's spine. He arched it closing the final gap between them. Finally breaking the kiss, Remus panted trying to regain what air he missed from their playful touches.

"We should always make up like that!"
