"We won't speak of it" Remus started, his nervous steps echoing in the Sheirking Shack.
"Anything you say" I promised.
"Our kiss never happened, right?" Remus repeated for the fourth time.
"Never" I copied.
"We'll be mocked" Remus acknowledged, "until forever"
Suddenly life stopped walking, "Why did you kiss me?"
I was caught.
Witty Sirius.
Think.
"It's called French forgiveness. Blacks do it all the time"
"You do?"
"Yes" I lied. "Wait, do you… did you think?"
Remus shrugged nervously.
"Skirts mate" I said casually "Back to normal?"
Remus Lupin didn't look at me normally from that day until forever.
