For Remus had been seen. Sirius had been coming back from the bathroom when Remus had entered the dormitory. He had stood utterly motionless holding bated breath as Remus had closed the curtains of his bed and left with a bag of personal effects. Where was he going?
Sirius had snatched up James invisibility cloak and followed Remus closely up until they had reached the front gates. Suddenly it all clicked together in his head, like on of those really irritating muggle contraptions, a jigsaw. Remus was running away. Because of him.
He couldn't stand here and watch as Remus left, he would never see him again.
'Remus!' he cried as he yanked off the cloak, darting forwards as Remus stepped closer to the gates. 'Don't!' He cried. Remus saw him and his eyes widened in surprise. They both stood frozen for a moment, staring at each other in a moment of uncertainty. Then Sirius knew what he was to do. There was no rhyme nor reason to it but he had to. He rushed those last few feet and kissed Remus.
Everything simply melted away and there was just him and Remus, alone in their own little world, just as he wanted it. His hands in Remus hair. The feel of Remus' hands on his back. Their kiss was soft yet passionate, perfect. They were perfect. After a very, very long time (in both their minds) they broke apart. And all they could do was smile.
'Don't go.' Sirius whispered. Remus could only nod his head. Then he took Sirius hand and they walked back to the castle; together. Neither of them watching anymore.
Fin.
