Sirius & Remus Modern Era Chapter 2: Tensions Rise, a harry potter fanfic

A/n: Well… hope you like it! I know this is very angsty and sad, but it'll heat up, I promise. It's also going to be very fluffy in some parts as well.

Chapter 2

They just stared at the ground until a thought occurred to Sirius, so he decided to break the silence. He looked up at Remus at said, "Uh… Remus… Where am I going to sleep?"

Remus looked up at him and said, "I suppose you'll have to sleep with me." Sirius' eyes widened as Remus blushed. "There's no where else to sleep. Unless you want to sleep on the couch… but I promise you it's not very comfortable… you'll never sleep."

Sirius debated that for a few minutes. He knew being next to Remus all night for who knows how long would not be easy. He was still very much attracted to him… but he would be comfortable…. "Alright."

Remus showed Sirius to their room, and since both of them were tired, they got into bed right away. Sirius and Remus just lay awake for a while, neither one able to sleep with the other being so close, but eventually they drifted off and dreamed about each other all night, and about many times that were and that they wish could be again.

Over the next few weeks, tensions rose between them. It wasn't like in school, where there were other things to distract them, and they were hardly ever alone. Whenever they were together, all they could think about was each other, their past, and many other things. It was hard after 1 day. Can you imagine what it was like after a week? Each day their feelings got stronger and stronger, not to mention the attraction.

Both of them were trying so hard to not get too close, accidentally touch or rub, or have contact of any kind. But that was easier said (or thought in this case) than done. They ended up bumping into each other, knocking each other down, or rubbing up against each other at least once a day.

Both of them were about fed up with this. Both wished that these feelings would somehow disappear… make their lives easier… somehow just magically disappear. Well that's one of the very few things that even magic can't solve.

One of the good things is they did get in contact with most of the old crowd. They sent letters by owl to most of them, but did not receive replies from all them yet.

But, overall, the old feelings that they had for each were returning. In actuality, they never left. They always thought about when they were together, when they made love, and many other things.

Both felt that it was too much. For Remus, even though it was getting to be too much, he wouldn't tell Sirius. He had many reasons. (Besides the fact that he was sure Sirius didn't love him anymore.) For Sirius, he wasn't sure what he was going to do. He wanted to tell Remus and get back together, but wasn't sure how he'd take it. He didn't know if he was willing to get back together with him or not, or if he still had feelings for him. He was sure he didn't though.

One night, Sirius lay awake, debating on if he should talk to Remus about how he felt about him. About how he still felt about him. But should he? And if he did, what would Remus say? This, and many other questions ran through his mind that night until he fell asleep into peaceful slumber.

A/n: Yes, I know, this was short and angsty and probably not very interesting, but I do hope you enjoyed it. Did you? I hope. I'm going to have to wait to post the next chapter. It gives away in the other 2 stories. (1 I'm writing, and the other I haven't started yet, as of now.) So, I'm waiting to post it. Once I've posted the next chapter in the one I'm writing right now (Sirius & Remus – Marauders Era) AND 5 chapters in the one I haven't started yet as of now (Sirius & Remus – The Death of Lily & James/Azkaban) THEN I'll post the next chapter. At least I have time to make the next chapter really good before ya'll read it. Enjoy!
