Why couldn't it stop .

It was a lazy evening in the Common Room when it started . James and Peter were playing wizard's chess while Sirius and Remus watched .They were all talking and having a good time .

Until thunder hit outside the castle . Remus felt his whole body stiffen as if it had hit him . Even after it had died down , it still rang in his ears , echoing in his head .

"Moony , you okay ? " Peter said but he barely heard it .

Remus couldn't respond . There was a lump in his throat , he couldn't form words .

And then thunder hit again ,Remus winced . It felt as if someone was slicing into his head with a knife .But then he felt a hand slide into his . He flinched on contact only to recognize a second later that it was him . Sirius .

"We're gonna go up to the dorm " he said gently tugging Remus off the couch.

Remus absently followed him through the Common Room and up the stairs . He tried to concentrate on the warmth of Sirius' hand and his arm on his back but he couldn't . With every roll of thunder , it felt like a nail was being driven into his head . he could feel the loud thuds in his chest . It hurt so much .

He barely noticed when they entered the dormitory . Sirius hurried them to their bed and Remus gladly sunk into the mattress , grateful for something , anything familiar .But the thunder was still hitting outside , and the noise was still echoing in his skull . Sirius drew the bed curtains and laid down beside Remus .

"It's alright " He said "It's okay , I'm right here ".

A sob escaped Remus' throat and he curled up bringing his head and legs closer to his chest . It hurt . The sounds from the outside hurt . Everything hurt . Sirius moved closer to him , pulling a blanket over them and put his hands over Remus' ears . It didn't do much but it was something . Remus loved him so much .

"It's alright "Sirius whispered placing a gentle kiss on Remus' forehead "It's okay , I'm here Moons"

Remus exhaled shakily and snuggled closer to him .

"You know "Sirius said "ever since I've become an animagi …. I'm more sensitive to loud noises ".

Surprised , Remus looked up at him . Sirius still had his hands pressed firmly to Remus' ears .

"I didn't know "Remus whispered .

Sirius smiled "It's alright . I mean , It's not that bad ,really- I just can't imagine what it's like for you ".

Another thunder hit and Remus shivered . The sound vibrates in his chest long after it had died down

"Moons?"

Remus looked at Sirius who leaned in closer to his still covered ears .

And then he started to sing .

Il est au bal musette

Un air rempli de douceur

Qui fait tourner les têtes

Qui fait chavirer les cœurs

Tandis qu'on glisse à petits pas

Serrant celle qu'on aime dans ses bras

Tout bas l'on dit dans un frisson

En écoutant jouer l´accordéon.

Remission forced himself to focus on that . On Sirius singing .On Sirius holding him . On his own breathing. On the fact that he was home , safe .

Chérie sous mon étreinte

Je veux te serrer plus fort

Pour mieux garder l´empreinte

Et la chaleur de ton corps

Que de promesses, que de serments

On se fait dans la folie d'un moment

Mais ses serments remplis d'amour

On sait qu´on ne les tiendra pas toujours.

It's the blue Java

The most beautiful

The one which enchants

And which we dance eye to eye

At the joyful rhythm

When bodies are confused

In the world there is

No other dance like it

It's the blue Java

Darling in my embrace

I want to squeeze you more

To better keep the imprint

And the warmth of your body

So many promises, so many oaths

We make in the craziness of a moment

But these oaths full of love

We know we won't always keep them.

The song is ' La Java Bleue' by Fréhel .So sorry I haven't posted in so long .10 th class started,and I'm drowning in assignments.
