Ready, set, angst.
All my reviewers, I love you all dearly.

Remus opened his eyes to see a whole lot of white. Squinting, Remus tried to figure out where he was. He felt a white linen blanket pinning him to a bed, and Madam Pomphrey bustling about, so he was guessing it was the Infirmary.

In the corner of his eye, he saw something twitch and move, so quickly that it hurt his head. Soon Sirius was sitting on the foot of his bed, peering at him closely.

"You're awake." Sirius stated plainly. Only a little, Remus thought, his skull pounding. Sirius's voice was far too loud to be normal. And this light… all this light was painful.

Groaning, Remus propped himself up against the head of the bed. He tried to rub his eyes, only to find his hand covered in bandages, and his arm, and most of his face.

"What… happened?" he asked. He found his entire throat felt like it was on fire, and with every syllable he spoke it got worse. Sirius looked away, admiring the contrast of his black shoe against the perfectly white blanket.

"You don't remember?" Sirius muttered. He kept his eyes downcast.

Remus shook his head, and then winced as he discovered that movement did not help his head ache. Sirius glanced at him nervously, and then gulped so hard that it hurt Remus's throat just to look at him.

"Well, Snape found out… About you… He went to the Willow, and James stopped him, and got a little injured, but they are both alright… But you were a werewolf for three days after that, so Dumbledore told me about the whole love thing, and… well, the gist is that you're alright now." Sirius concluded his monologue brightly, but Remus was already feeling nauseous.

"How did Snape find out?" Remus asked hoarsely. Sirius opened and closed his mouth several times, looking slightly guilty. Remus repeated his question, louder this time, but careful not to be loud enough to attract Madam Pomphrey's attention.

"He says that he just figured it out, the slimy git!" Sirius finally said, still looking away. Remus looked at him oddly, but quickly let the moment pass, in favor of a happier one.

As gingerly as he could manage, Remus leaned forward and pulled Sirius onto the bed, wanting to hug him for doing what he did, but all of a sudden there was no strength in his arms. However, Sirius slid down without complaint, and they sat that way for a few moments, before Sirius let out a dry sob, covering his face with his hands.

"I'm so sorry, Remus, I'm so, so sorry!" Sirius whispered through his fingers. But Remus didn't even have time to comfort him before James burst into the room, bright red and wordless.

Quite nearly happy to see another Marauder, Remus began to speak, but the look on James's face silenced him. Fortunately, the blind fury on his face wasn't directed at him. Strangely enough, it was towards Sirius.

Not saying a word, James grabbed Sirius by the wrist roughly and hauled him out of the room, into the hallway. After a few seconds where Remus listened with shortened breath, there was a huge explosion that sent the door flying. It hit another bed and snapped in half, falling broken to the floor.

Madam Pomphrey heard that. But by the time she had rushed out of her office, wand raised, James and Sirius had disappeared.

Angry that the vandalism of her Hospitable Wing would go unpunished, the nurse put all of her energy into fluffy Remus's pillows, and forcing things down his throat, namely chocolate and potions. One of the potions was a Sleeping Draught, so Remus found himself unwillingly drifting off again.

Utterly frustrated that he was left in the dark, Remus tried in vain to fight the Sleeping Draught, but in moments he was drifting off. His last conscious thought before falling asleep was that he was happy that Sirius was with him again.

The horror! The angst! The inevitable blow-up! More explosions! In fact, I will have one explosion per review. Twaha. On my honor! Oh the ideas I come up with typing these little things at the end!

I didn't really like this chapter, the actual wording, etc., so feel free to critize... Also, if you seen any errors, just put it in your review and I'll fix it up quick-like. -) Unfortunately, I don't have the best editorial eye. Mmmhmmm... So review, or the world will be explosion-less.
