The Muse Bunny Prompt #3- Confusion
The crowd roared with excitement as James led their team to victory once more, someone in the crowd casting a charm that caused star-like lights to flicker and burst across the stadium. Remus, despite not liking Quidditch, bit his lip to keep a giddy smile at bay. He watched as Sirius soared across, spiraling in excitement on his broomstick as he met up with James and they gave a rough high five. Remus could see them laughing excitedly, the teaming shouting in approval of their win along with the cheers of the crowd.
After several more minutes of whoops and yelling, it began to die down as the players landed to head to the locker rooms. Remus stood up, closing the book he brought with him. He hadn't looked at it the entire time, but not because he was engrossed in the game.
Remus came to the games to encourage his two best friends in their games (Peter would come, as well), but he would always curl himself up and read; blocking out the loud noises of the stadium. These past games for several months have been different though. He'd often close his book a minute into the game, staring up in awe as he watched Sirius navigate himself through the sky and give a mighty whack to the bludgers. He'd watch the way Sirius's face lit up with the thrill of the game, watch him give a breathless laugh; watch the handsomeness that was Sirius. This realization made Remus rather uncomfortable.
Friends didn't normally pay that much attention at their other friends, right? They didn't notice the muscular build underneath the uniform of the team, nor the second long flashes of abdomen. No. They didn't. Dejected, Remus ambled down from the intricate bleachers and met up with Peter who was downing a bag of peanuts.
"Remus!" Peter smiled, peanut shavings on the corner of his lips. Remus gave a nod, coming forward to him.
"Sorry I lost you in the bleachers, Peter."
"Not a problem! Jeremy and Martha kept me company." Peter gestured at a pretty Ravenclaw girl and a homely looking Gryffindor boy. "I could see you from my spot! You must be enjoying Quidditch now, right?"
Remus blinked rapidly, "W-what makes you think that?"
"You seemed pretty absorbed in it." Peter said nonchalantly, shoving more peanuts in his mouth.
Remus gulped. Even Peter could notice the difference. An awkward silence enveloped both boys until James hollered, running to meet them and pouncing Peter. Peter coughed, some peanut chunks flying out of his mouth.
"Did you see the look on Malfoy's face when I got the Quaffle in each time?"
"Almost each time." Remus said, smiling ever so slightly. James like to exaggerate ever once in awhile.
James snorted. "Nevermind the little details, Moony."
Next to bound over was Sirius, grinning hugely and if he was in animagus form, his tail would surely have been wagging. "Moony did you see the bludger bounce off that Beater's head? He should know better than to mess with Sirius Orion Black!"
Remus rolled his eyes, a smile tugging his lips. "You're lucky his brains weren't knocked out from his ear with the Bludger you sent flying at him." Although the way Sirius' muscles had flexed ever so nicely in his arm...Remus bit the inside of his cheek, finger digging fiercely into the spine of his book.
Sirius noticed this, a questioning look gracing his face but James dispelled that by shouting: "Forgive us Mother Moony!", the glasses boy throwing himself on Remus. Remus peeled him off, but Sirius latched on next along with Peter who chimed: "Forgive us, mum!"
Remus eventually broke out in a fit of giggles, surprising the boys who quickly joined in. Slowing his laughter, Remus glimpsed at Sirius to see him laughing weakly and staring at Remus. Sirius' eyes flashed with something unknown, but he didn't back down from his deep, hard stare. It bellowed a secret message, a message unknown to the werewolf boy who quivered ever so slightly, his laughter sounding more nervous than joyful. Peter and James took no notice, beginning to crack more jokes. The staring contest continued, neither boy looking away until Remus felt his face heat up in a nervous fashion. He sheepishly turned away, forcing himself to laugh at James poor joke.
The boys headed back to the dormitory, James and Sirius treated like kings as butter beer was passed around, courtesy of the lovely house elves. Remus stood in the corner of the dormitory, gripping his mug tightly and his face a mask covering his true, inner turmoil.
Confusion rained down on him, and Remus sighed. Why would Sirius stare so intently at him?
A/N: The second part to this is done, and is the prompt 'Jealousy'...I'm going to modify it, though. Muwhahaha...Just wanted to thank everyone for reviewing; I'm glad you guys are liking these so far. :D Forgive me for using the 'mother moony' thing so much...I just think it suits them. XD Remus is the mum, Sirius is the family dog...James and Peter are the children. YES. Remus is a single mum. ;) XD
